Happy Saturday, Gliberati! I hope this fine weekend finds you all happy and healthy.
Spring is in full swing, with burn piles and ditch burning dotting the land, the osprey are back, and it’s no longer freezing. So now we can ignore all that cold stuff and get to, the links!
Well that sucks. I’m sure there were no drugs involved, though.
That’s it for today, folks. I’ve always liked this song.
the osprey are back
Over here, it’s seagulls.
Glorified pigeons.
P Brooks is really Richard Bach?
Nah, P Brooks ran so far away.
He’s just one man. He can’t be a flock.
Ah well, it sucks to ever have anything to do at all when you want to post here becauese 1 minute later it’s a dead thread.
I’m going to probably break protocol here and repost.
Does the Leftist Media finally need to worry?
Choose your partners carefully, Elon, do not pull a Trump. You know that guy Thiel? I think you know him, and I’d pull Greenwald in as well as far as the jouranlistic aspect goes.
Damnit, I mean fuck this day.
Twatter Rival
No.
It will just turn into another cesspool with a different kind of kooks than the kooks who infest the Twitter cesspool.
That’s the problem for them. They hate different. I mean they love diversity as long as it agrees with them 100% of the time with no question.
So, like Glibertarians?
Kinda like Gab.
Sadly, yes

So… this is spring now?
Windy as fuck here and a little chilly.
Yeah, I drove through that shit this morning.
One of the local cycling club had their first ride of the season today. Chili March Metric ride, with a 34 mile and a 66 mile option. I avoided signing up for that when I saw the weather prediction, and instead went to a spin class, in a heated building. I did wind up driving past the start/finish point on my way home, and they were still doing the ride today.
It’s possible there will be snow here in southern NH next week.
If so, you can blame me. While I was cleaning up my yard, I took down my snow stakes. Friday I made appointments for car maintenance which includes swapping my snow tires. My snow blower gets picked up Thursday for maintenance.
I’d do the work on my snow blower myself, except Honda put the oil drain in a very odd place: maybe an inch or so above the tire. Either you need to take the tire off or you need to tip the snowblower over. I decided that since I am employed at a decent paying job, I will pay someone else to deal with it.
You gotta go
A real man would challenge him to a caged death match. I’ll pay some pretty big bucks to watch, just consider it ‘revenue’, maybe it will help pay for people’s gas and food.
When Hyperion encounters a real man he gets on his knees and starts making strange guttural choking sounds and pawing at their pants.
Nobody’s ever done that upon encountering Brochettaward.
Protip: try to be slightly less of an asshole.
It appears that Biden wasn’t even the first US pol to say it – Lindsey Graham said it first. Yet another case of Biden plagiarizing.
This is the most fucked up day. I had to go to the bank to deposit some checks and then I had some license plates I needed to turn in because I sold a car. This is The People’s Republic of Maryland and here the penalty for not turning them back in is somewhere just north of the death penalty.
So we go cash the checks and the head to the MVA. Now my wife was driving because I can’t drive becuase I got stopped driving 155 … no, I just did not renew my license yet and so she’s driving and we’re talking and all of the sudden I’m like ‘Where the fuck are we?’. And I realize we are way far south of where we are supposed to be. So I said ‘turn this thing around, we’re… this is not right’.
And so next thing I know we are in one fucking bad area, and in Baltimore being in a bad area is like being in Mogadishu at night by yourself with no GPS, only worse. So about 2 fucking hours later, we’re back home. I don’t think I have ever seen so much road construction with detours.
And now I have a nervous pissed off wife. This is bad. So we head back out again and this time we drive right to the MVA and I get out to put my tags in the 24/7 drop box. And the door to the Kiosk is locked so I push the button and a security guy comes out and says ‘Only one person at a time in the Kiosk, you gotta wait’. So I wait, for like forever… or 20 minutes and it’s fucking cold and the wind is howling and we are not in a good neighborhood. Now why is the dropbox for license plates locked up inside? Because if they are not, the illegals from Central America will steal all of the plates out of the box and put them on their cars, I am not making this shit up. No wonder I am drinking again tonight.
Can’t the illegals just do counterfeit paper plates like they do here in TX?
I fon’t know, they sure as hell do fake SS numbers and driver’s license, but they use the plates off of used cars and trade them.
It must be great to be one of them. No documentation, no rules, no laws, no pentalties for anything, no taxes, and the government will give you all the free shit you ask for. And if anyone tells me the latter is not true they can go to hell, my wife works for the fed gov in a program, and they are not even allowed to ask them for proof of certain things, everyone else, yes, them no. Two sets of rules depending on identity.
They don’t have to fake an SSN, the government is in on the racket. They issue an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) which acts like a social, but for people in the country illegally (the IRS themselves specify they don’t determine legal status). If anyone else operated like this, it would be a RICO violation, but it’s just one more way our government lies to and fucks us.
It must be great to be one of them
Go for it, destroy all your identification/documentation and become an illegal alien. live the high life off the gov’t teat.
Then write an article for us. I want to know how it turns out.
The metal plates are more durable.
That’s an odd system. In Washington, you have to buy new plates when you get a new car. That’s it. You can do whatever you want with the old ones. I’ve never heard of it being a problem.
I always used to fold them in half a few times and rip them apart.
In NoDak they are assigned to the owner. So, if you go to a dealership and trade in your vehicle for a new one, you pull the plates off the old one and put them on the new one. They used to be assigned to the vehicle, so they never came off no matter how many times the vehicle transferred ownership. Not sure why they changed. But either way makes more send to me than that goofiness in Maryland.
In Iowa, they are assigned to the owner. If you sell a vehicle and don’t replace it, you have to turn the plate back in.
Goofiness is putting counties on license plates so you have to get new ones if you move to a different county.

When asked about the goals of his foundation, Musk said he cares more about the outcomes, not optics, of philanthropy. This, he says, makes it harder for him to give away money “effectively.”
“If you care about the reality of doing good and not the perception of doing good, then it is very hard to give away money effectively,” he said. “I care about reality. Perception be damned.”
What’s the point of charity if it doesn’t get your picture on the cover of the Rolling Stone?

It’s a Saturday, and KK’s
21stbirthday. So here’s the Zoom/Happy Hour/Birthday party link that will kick off at 20:00 Eastern.Happy Birthday, KK!
I informed KK of the well wishes, and she thanks you.

6 feet, 5 inches tall and weighed 330 pounds
No trouble getting past the “you must be this big” sign.
If we had a real media, they might ask them what the weight and height capacity was for that ride. Instead we will get ‘White Hispanic workers fail to strap in tiny African American child with a pack of Skittles in his pocket’.
The ride wasn’t load tested, discrimination against the Husky size, as they used to be depicted in the Sears catalogue. Are boys Plus size or just stocky?
He may have already signed a contract with the Bears.
The SpaceX and Tesla CEO brought up a number of social causes during the conversation.
“There’s obviously environmental causes, there is education, especially science and engineering education,” he said. “Pediatric healthcare. Hunger these days is more of a political and logistics problem than it is not having enough food. There is a lot of food. In the US and many countries, the issue is more obesity than it is hunger.”

Hey all, I’m collecting can lids for SP.
1) Take a lid, rusty or not (preferably a canning lid, but whatever you can get), write your glibs handle on it along with a message of appreciation for her immense contributions to this site. NOTE: you may get better results using a fineliner permanent marker.
2) email me at trashy-glibs [at] disengage [dot] co (and let me know what your glibs handle is) to get the destination address for the lid.
3) shove the lid in an envelope and get it in the mail by April 1st.
Once I get all the lids, I’ll assemble them in a way that only a trash monster can, and I’ll send it up to SP to replenish her stock and keep OMWC in check.
I’ll continue posting this in the links threads this week.
NOTE: Athena has graciously offered to put messages on lids for those who, for whatever reason, can’t. (athenaofprogtown at the gmail)
NOTE2: If you don’t hear from me within 24 hours, let me know on here.
I already sent mine! Quit bossing me!
Starting in 2024, producers will be required to submit a summation of the race, gender, sexual orientation, and disability status of members of their movie’s cast and crew.
Brings a new meaning to the term “gay for pay.” I can see the conversation now:
Producer: Hey Stan, I gotta fill out this form, and I gotta problem. We ain’t got enough BIPOCs or homos on set. Can you do me a solid?
Carpenter’s Assistant Stan: Gee, Mister. I gotta wife and three kids.
Producer: That don’t matter none. Just identify as queer for this picture, all right?
CA Stan: Okay… but don’t tell the missus. She’s Mexican Catholic. I’d be putting my life on the line.
If people can be genderfluid, they can be racefluid too.
1. look at me and you decide
2. see #1
3. none of your fucking business
4. see #3
That’s… unreal.
Ask this same person if physics or engineering can be done with affirmative action, or running a large company and they’d likely tell you that yes it can.
And they will really believe it.
At first, social squishy stuff was “relative” and subjective. That became reality in the minds of many. Your truth, his truth, her truth—all equally valid and somehow simultaneously extant.
Once your capacity for rational thought has been thus destroyed, the idea that physics and math are squishy is the natural follow-on.
I for one can definitively state that the day that I KNEW God was real was in my high school calculus class–God was so beautifully shown by the math; my Advanced Chemistry class further underscored it by proving how everything in the universe was made up of combinations of just a few types of particles.
So when man rejects math and physics, he’s rejecting God. The 4 Horsemen are polishing their boots even now, getting the horses re-shod and ready.
The kid on the ride may tried to defy some laws but got caught by gravity. Hope he hadn’t rejected God.
gravity is racist
I imagine the shit in Bogota is mostly uncut. I remember a Columbian I had as a manager in the Twin Cities bitching about how weak our coke was. Now, I’m not saying Taylor Hawkins death was drug related, but if it was, I can see where he may have failed to take that into account.
It was drug related.

I agree. Hate Nickelback, love the cover. Good call, despite the hate.
Also, I count that as more Kid Rock than Nickelback. Kind of like at how if you do it right, you can fool yourself into that being a girl on the other side of the glory hole.
Southern Saturday nights
I would post a glory hole link but MikeS doesn’t deserve it.
There is nothing wrong with Nickleback.
Oooh.
Live version, pre-Goth!
What a great fucking song!
That’s not too shabby, even if it is ska-ish.
They were a really fun jazz/ska band out of Michigan. I got to celebrate my 21st birthday weekend seeing them at Bell’s Brewery out in Kalamazoo (I’m fairly sure that Bell’s was still operating as Kalamazoo brewing then). Released one album, and then broke up as most of the band worked in IT, and preferred to make money rather then tour.
Spring is in full swing, with burn piles and ditch burning dotting the land, the osprey are back, and it’s no longer freezing. So now we can ignore all that cold stuff
I did a little yard work today. While cleaning up my yard, I found a string of Christmas lights in my yard. It turns out, it was my neighbor’s. We think the wild winds we had not too long ago ripped the string of lights off their tree and carried it into my yard.
It may sound like a Roland Emmerich sci-fi movie, but it’s actually more frightening. And much more controversial. It’s the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’s latest initiative to make Hollywood more equitable and diverse—more woke—by changing the rules by which films are eligible for Best Picture nominations.
I tapped out here. I feel like I need to watch some Critical Drinker to fully recover.
I went to metaverse fashion week and it was like a dystopian nightmare – I fell off a yacht and had to leave
I’m done with Spud’s links.
My work here is done.
I did a little yard work today.
Me too. I found a gecko in the sage plant and showed it to the 17 month old… who proceeded to call it a cat. ??
Hahaha. We love our lizards over here. Lots of them.Geckos and green anoles.
I read that last one as “green a-holes”
I love “Shine” by Collective Soul.
Second only to “The World I Know” and its artfully directed anti-suicide video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7TLTjqUyog
Collective Soul is one of my top 5 favorite bands. The first 10 seconds of this song used to be my phone ringer.
I found an ancient photo of a 17 year old Proto-Splosives.
Already looking like I’m plotting the spectacular destruction of something…
(that’s my avatar for now)
I love it! 17 year old R.J. had a shrubbery for hair. Much less appealing.
Oh, my. :fans self:
I member that one!
Already looking like I’m plotting the spectacular destruction of something…
Yes.
I think the only pictures still in existence of my at around that age are my first driver’s license, my high school yearbook picture, and a picture of my grandfather and me at my high school graduation.
Would have.
Still would, actually.
Yes. Yes you would…
Tundra beat me to the punch. He bested me today. Kudos to your First, good sir. Tomorrow I shall ruin you.
Aww. You guys are such flatterers.

17 year old Scruffy had Shawn Cassidy hair, right before went Billy Idol spiked.
Oh how I wish I could have that hairline back .
Yeah, I had a glorious blonde flow.
I had a pretty sweet mullet. Business in the front, party in the back!
I also had a very nice “MacGyver cut” back in the day. I couldn’t pull it off today. My forehead has turned into a fivehead.
I hated my hair – dirty brown, slightly wavy – but that was probably just one of the many hang-ups I had.
God I could rock that hair now if it wasn’t white and too heavy.
Can you post a link to your OnlyFans page?
Nice try, Agent HE.
(not in front of the others, comrade!!)
We should have a Glibs 1980s hair gallery to make fun of each other’s mullets.
I was lucky to have curly hair, so i never had one of those pyramid shaped permanent waves that all of my junior high and high school cohorts sported. And their bangs!! Those things were teased up and hairsprayed into impenetrable fortresses. I always found that very weird…
Hiya Spud!
What’s shakin’?
I’m sitting in my chair while Judi is taxiing her meth-head Son about. It’s my day off. I smell like tobacco, beer, regret, liniment and maybe pee. How’s things for you?
Well, I smell better than you. Getting ready to start linking some Collective Soul
I don’t care how badly I stink. It’ll warsh off. Blowing the dust out of the speakers, getting drunk and giving zero fucks about anything. Corporate extended my tenure for yet another month and I can get no concrete answer about what is happening. A clean break would be better than this tapering off nonsense as those of you that have wiped up after children would understand viscerally.
Atta boy! I’m doing the same.
*prost!*
“Gel” is a great tune.
Currently wallowing in sweet, sweet vindication, fuck you incompetent home inspector!
Yay!
Killing time until I have to go to the airport and pick up the kid.
Smelling pretty good, I think. Like prosciutto, mainly.
Can I come over and sniff you? After I shower, of course!
Be careful you don’t get Ned Beatty’d by a foodie.
Watching Columbo and some tennis from Miami, sipping a Vodka Dew, about to make hamburgers, glibbing, and some nerdy self-teaching. A perfect Saturday night.
Real Columbo from the 70’s or late 80’s revival?
I enjoy both but tonight’s episodes are from 1972.
Fun fact: the last Columbo was in 2003 and had a great soundtrack from The Crystal Method.
That actually does sound good. Love Columbo, love the Crystal Method, how could it go wrong? I’ve got several of the old seasons on DVD. Haven’t managed to buy any from the ’80s. Now going to check out this 2003 thing you are talking about.
Enjoy. It’s very good.
I guess I didn’t know! ?
I completely missed the 2003 episodes. Was Peter Falk still doing it?
Yes. By then there was only one movie every year or two.
Ah. Got it. I vaguely remember the movie of the week or whatever they called it.
I tried to go check out that Metaverse nonsense, but it looks like it’s froze-up or something. Anyone else try?
Nope. Don’t care. It looks like something for children and the too easily amused.
Everything went to shit after I shaved the moustache. Like Biblical Sampson. It’s all become so clear to me now…
Bring back the cookie duster!
Right? What the hell was he thinking.
You know who else felt like they could take on the world with a stache?
John Holmes?
Like a ribbed condom, it’s there for her pleasure.
For some reason my cucumber planting misfired. I am already enjoying lettuce, tomatoes, beans, and peas. I’ll be replanting cukes, and adding in the zukes this weekend.
These euphemisms get harder and harder to follow the more I drink.
Maybe the message was meant for others.

Most of my pepper plants are thriving.
Weaponized fruit ftw.
Been working on fencing and we had some success with first sheep milking. Also some failures.
Another cold front coming through soon. Just want to get plants safely in the ground.

If reports are accurate, they have lost seven flag officers including two LTG’s since this started.
Yes they have. They are in a pickle without NCOs. Of course, I don’t know how they could allow their military to use independent thought/initiative when that’s otherwise prohibited in Russia.
FTA:
That made my sphincter clench. Even if it’s fake, it’s one of those things I totally fear.
Same here. It’s a terrible tragedy no matter how it happened. I am curious to know cause. Was he literally too large for the ride? Did a worker screw up? Did the kid do something stupid? Was it a design defect?
I’m thinking too big for the ride. You know the harness that comes down over your shoulders and locks? My bet is it didn’t get locked in all the way.
Then there was this.
it’s just tragic.
That was an awful event.
Or did he have a panic attack and try and get out? 6’5″ 330lbs can pretty much do what he wants to an extent.
I wouldn’t bet against it. Panic can make you do stupid shit.
Based on an earlier link I just ordered 1000rd of 5.56. Also bought a Savage 42 Takedown, .410/.22 single shot. I intend to reduce the woodpecker destroying my home to a puff of feathers.
Now that I’m invested in a .410 I’m thinking about a derringer.
Also bought 50rd of .357 for $4 per round. Still choking on that one.
Also, when we went to lunch today, I was confused about which bathroom to use because I’m not a biologist. Luckily I chose the one that had urinals.
I hope that you dropped one in the urinal just for your trouble.

Even if it’s not.

Sorry. Even though it’s not really my thing, I think it’s a fucking masterpiece.
And yes, it hits hard.
No, it’s a good song.

Hey, Emma Stone, how you doin’?
How YOU doin?
I’m drinking a glass of boxed wine, sitting in my robe at the computer, looking distinctly NOT cute. It’s fun to relive the past a little.
Youth is wasted on the young.
I’m still in my jammies but a cup of the morning elixir is gone. I’ve been awake for a couple hours (or more). Couldn’t get back to sleep. I revisited a lot of memories. I’m guessing some of the memories were not exactly as I remembered them but there is no one to correct me so it’s gospel in my head.
A year ago in the hospital when the medics were trying to get my britches off to take some X-rays I told them they may learn some new words. They were gracious enough to not record my exclamations. While it may not have reduced the discomfort it was a reminder to them to try to move slowly.
I’m not sure about wasting on the young, it was a good time. Never had smoke or a drink that I didn’t want. Silliness and stupidity are learning tools.
Yessiree. To the survivors belong the spoils, including the writing of history.
When I was a wee 20 something engineer at a defense contractor, I volunteered to be the official note taker at important meetings. My note taking became legendary for its accuracy and proper attribution of quotes to their utterors (though I edited for better effect and a bit of flattery).
The reason I took a “secretary” role in those meetings was because I profoundly affected the outcome and action items that arose from said meetings. I played those dudes like a fiddle.
Cheers!!
Too often we think policy making is made by the policy makers.
Good for you, HE, reminding the horse power of what they said, as opposed to what they thought they said, in retrospect, is a way to keep them honest and serious.
I was always thought to be the loose cannon at corporation meetings but the owners and I were closer in age and experiences so I had a little more leeway.

WRT to HE’s new look: HUBBA HUBBA
(even tho’ Ive attempted to quit redheads)
Well, thanks. Not really me “new look” since that’s over 30 years ago.
I am now gray-red-brown. My national hair is thin due to a genetic thing that afflicts my very lovely sister as well. She struggles to keep up: peloton, surgery, harsh diet. She looks great, but I think I’m having more fun.
Anyhoo, regarding hair, after years of sporting a beautiful mane, when it became sad and thin, I embraced the power of WIGS!! So fun. You can change your look and color every day. I put my real hair up into my rounded braids on the sides of my head to give me good anchor points for pinning the wig.
Girls: live a little; explore wigs!!!
Not “national “ hair; “natural” hair.
Hard journalizing at the local news. I’m shocked they couldn’t find a way to put another possible in the headline:
“Cold, spotty flurries expected today; Possible thunderstorms possible midweek”
Possible maybe chance of.
Sounds like the Biden administration.
SUNDAY MORNING LINKS ARE UP!!
