Ukraine war: Johnson says if Putin were a woman he would not have invaded
The UK prime minister said the “crazy, macho” invasion was a “perfect example of toxic masculinity” and he called for “more women in positions of power”.
But Downing Street said there was “not a deliberate policy” to publicly belittle Mr Putin.
Mr Johnson’s comments come ahead of a Nato meeting where allies will discuss how to respond to future threats.
At the summit in Madrid, he is set to call on fellow members of the defensive alliance to ramp up defence spending.
Chris Crawford Is Changing NFL Cheerleading, Whether Football Fans Like It or Not
It’s Pride month, and for the NFL that typically means it’s time to splash a fresh coat of rainbow paint over the shield, publicize partnerships between LGBTQ+ organizers and the league’s first and only player to come out while in the NFL (though he is not currently employed by the league), and cash in on queer fans’ loyalty with Pride-themed games. For a league that’s facing constant revelations of misogyny and discrimination, the once-a-year celebration of queer people in the NFL has, regardless of good intentions, often felt more like a farce than a genuine tribute.
But there’s a different story unfolding in the South—one that subverts (or, at least, lessens the blow of) the threats to pregnant, queer, and trans people’s rights across the country and especially in southern states. The TopCats, the official cheerleading squad of the Carolina Panthers, have quietly become one of the most progressive organizations in the NFL. As one of the many faces of the team, Chris Crawford, a 23-year-old Black gay male who slides between femininity and masculinity as he pleases, is doing a hell of a lot of heavy lifting for gender identity diversity within a league that has glorified the gender binary since its inception. Crawford doesn’t care whether fans are ready for people like him to appear on their televisions and in their stadiums, because unabashed gender expression like his is the future. And the future, apparently, is the Carolina TopCats.
When when football fans stop disappointing Jezebel?
Although the real shock comes when you get to the end of the article and realize that a Gizmodo blog has managed to talk about the NFL and not mention Colin Kaepernick for the millionth time.
R. Kelly seeks 10 years in prison, the minimum, as sentencing looms in sex case
Kelly, whose full name is Robert Sylvester Kelly, was convicted last September of racketeering, and eight counts of violating the Mann Act, which prohibits transporting people across state lines for prostitution.
Forty-five witnesses testified for the government. A 10-year term is the minimum possible sentence.
Bonjean, who began representing Kelly after his conviction, said the singer’s impoverished and “chaotic” home life as a child included multiple instances of sexual abuse, including by a sister and a male landlord whose names were blacked out.
She said Kelly has an IQ of 79 and is “functionally illiterate,” having felt shame and fear he could not read the teleprompter when accepting Grammy awards.
I had no idea you could score a 79 if all you did was pee on the test sheet.
UPDATE: He got 30 years.
Dr. Fauci reveals ‘COVID rebound’ after Pfizer’s Paxlovid treatment
The quadruple-vaccinated Dr. Anthony Fauci said he is experiencing a “much worse” COVID rebound after being treated with Pfizer’s antiviral medication Paxlovid.
The 81-year-old chief medical adviser to the White House revealed his health struggles while speaking remotely at the Foreign Policy Global Health Forum on Tuesday.
The nation’s leading infectious disease expert tested positive for COVID-19 on June 15 and was initially experiencing mild symptoms, according to a statement released at the time by the National Institutes of Health.
When his condition took a turn for the worse, he began a five-day course of Paxlovid, which was granted an emergency use authorization by the Food and Drug administration in December 2021 to treat high-risk COVID patients in an effort to prevent hospitalizations and deaths.
[prolonged laughter]
This feed will help.
It’s a meal almost too rich for even my gourmand tastes.
I’m shocked. Shocked!
Is that Trump letter real? I can’t tell any longer.
Nope.
Damn. All my hopes dashed.
I’m guessing it’s not, but I’m going to pretend it is.
^
I think I might as well. I mean just yesterday we had congressional testimony that was then seriously discussed by reeves political pundits that sounds like something out of a straight to video production that would get the Glib Flick treatment by RJ.
All I wanted was a Diet Coke and she wouldn’t give it to me!
I think this is real.
Only slightly less hilarious.
He writes like a meme generator. But a quick look at his website says this isn’t real.
More importantly, is that pic real? Those are some thicccccc legs – when the rest of her fills out, she’s going to be big-time Tres-bait.
Please tell me that Trump statement is real.
It has an emotional truth.
I remember when I first read Cheaper By the Dozen as a kid, and one of the characters in the book was a guy who was a cheerleader for Montclair High. I was like “huh?” – had never heard of that. Then eventually figured out the normal/classic male cheerleaders like you see a college games for stunts and stuff. Still a little weird, but whatever.
This, however, is just one more “I’m glad the NFL is dead to me” stories.
Amazingly, the Browns don’t have a cheerleader squad.
DeShaun Watson hardest hit.
Couldn’t find enough women willing to cheer for a lost cause? Maybe they could have more luck now at some of these Roe v Wade protests.
Dude, that’s harsh.
Sometimes a woman’s gotta do what a woman’s gotta do to get an abortion.
Harsh to the Browns or to the protestors?
Both!
The Packers have one made of fans and volunteers. The engineering leaps being made in Spandex strength is amazing.
😬
Tres disagrees.
The Washington Redskins had an unofficial cheerleader squad called the Hogettes — big guys in bad drag.
At least this guy is good-looking. And probably shaved all over.
Your avatar pic really sells this comment.
Well the spandex has to be highly stretchy as well as resistant to paint thinner spills. After all that is the official drink of Packer Backers everywhere.
Are they all Pope Jimbos children?
You really teed everyone up with that one.
I try not to let people down all the time.
Dead. To. Me.
They lost me at black national anthem. Vote with our dollars. All we can do.
I have no idea why the NFL thinks this is helpful to them.
Because they’re more focused on grasping for new market share instead of protecting the market share they had?
The mythical “Wider Audience”.
Amongst people that un-ironically say “sportsball”.
Yep. They actually have an opportunity with the way they do the broadcasts on Amazon. The few games I’ve watched there will generally have 4-5 different audio options (home team, visiting team, Thursday night crew 1, Scout crew, and one other I can’t remember). Throw a couple of people explaining the game and the decisions, and put that up as another audio option.
I had no idea that was set in the town in Essex County, NJ.
Your other bit of trivia – Pleasant Valley Sunday
“Pleasant Valley Sunday” is a song written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King, most famous for the version recorded by the Monkees in 1967. Inspired by a street named Pleasant Valley Way and their move to suburban West Orange, New Jersey, Goffin and King wrote the song about dissatisfaction with the life in the suburbs.[3]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleasant_Valley_Sunday#:~:text=%22Pleasant%20Valley%20Sunday%22%20is%20a,the%20life%20in%20the%20suburbs.
Roughly 5 miles away from Montclair.
In Junior High I played that male cheerleader in the school stage production of “Cheaper by the Dozen”. I got lines like “Sis Boom Bah”, “Hoo Rah Ray”, and “I wanna hear ya holler now!”
As one of the many faces of the team, Chris Crawford, a 23-year-old Black gay male who slides between femininity and masculinity as he pleases, is doing a hell of a lot of heavy lifting for gender identity diversity within a league that has glorified the gender binary since its inception.
Can’t football just be about the game and the T&A on the sidelines and avoid the genderbending bs?
Shut up you misogynist bigot! This will do wonders for their plummeting viewership numbers. Wonders.
There is an opportunity for XFL here. But they failed to bring back the cheerleaders the last time. Then
government cuntescovid ruined them. Oh, well.Remember when the XFL used the gimmick of cameras in the cheerleader’s locker rooms? It was…..a different time. Even my pervy ass found that one creepy.
Just about the game? You don’t like the interviews during play? It’s serious journalising.
I would appreciate a picture in picture of the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders during the games.
You’ll look at his ass, and enjoy it, damnit!
/SJW
Thinks back to having to tell Dad that RuPaul was a tranny. Especially since he had just made some sexist pig comment about how good she looked.
Stunning and brave.
And for the ten-thousandth time… “queer” is a politics, not a “gender” or a “sexual orientation” or however the fuck they’re pigeonholing us now.
*barf*
if Putin were a woman he would not have invaded
It is known that no country lead by a woman has ever started a war.
Helen of Troy?
oops. lead by. not caused by.
What about when we invaded Kosovo?
I guess that Falklands action wasn’t really a war.
kinetic military action?
“Argentina started it.” [waves tiny Union Jack]
And Han shot second.
Well, there is this.
TL;DR: I’d say Queen Victoria may have the best claim, based on fond memories of this book.
When Hillary decided to kill Kaddafi?
Now she didn’t dream that up all on her own – she had the help of Samantha Power and Susan Rice.
She gets out of it because nobody has declared war for decades. They just blow shit up under a general authorization that is totes constitutional.
The cats are adorbs.
They are. Makes me wish I wasn’t allergic to the little bastards.
^^^
I’m allergic but would miss my kitties.
MUST.RESIST.
Between that and Adahn’s weekly pooch pics, I am having a hard time remaining furry friendless. (Not that kind of Furry, you asses.)
Hey, we don’t judge here.
I’m trying to find a home for this cute lil girl.
NOOOOOOO!!!!
The sweet evil in her eyes is captivating.
*runs away*
I’ve always wanted a black cat though.
I’m currently on my second.
First was a good guy, but dumb!
Second is very friendly, but also annoyingly so. He won’t stay still so he is perpetually walking and rubbing up against you. Never stops moving.
You owe it to yourself to come home to that every day.
How close are you to Texas?
Not very. I’m in PA, the kitty is in Northern NJ.
That would be at would be a difficult drive.
The tabby reminds me of the cat we had had to put down a few weeks ago. *Sniff* He got a kidney infection that wouldn’t go away.
Sorry, whiz.
Sorry, whiz. My daughter’s Russian faded the same way. Sad.
Sorry.
Shit. Sorry, whiz.
🙁
Thanks for the thoughts everyone. He was a shelter cat who had been there for 26 months (!) before we adopted him (we often take difficult cases or pets who get passed over by others). We only had him for 6 months 🙁 but enjoyed him while he was here. Whenever I would sit in my recliner, if he was in the room he would be in my lap almost before my butt got settled.
Awwww.
Sorry dude.
Song of the day mashup with Bauhaus. https://youtu.be/dkF0kwP_DsI
Go-Go dancers are sooooooo much better than hippy chicks.
Cool links music. Never heard of that band before; but enjoying the album.
The third album sounds like a soundtrack for a movie about LA in the 80s that never got made.
Ha, yeah, and sung by Peter Murphy.
A movie mash-up of American Gigalo, Thief and The Hunger would be perfect.
Also, if anyone has never seen American Gigalo or hasn’t seen it in a while, it was a much better movie than I remembered. Although I might have only seen it butchered for TV.
American Gigalo was a fine movie
When I realized that all the incidental music was variations on “Call Me” I was blown away.
Dammit.
One of the best parts (SFW).
To Live and Die in LA was already made.
God, I love that movie. One of the best of the Eighties.
Such a great movie. Great soundtrack – Wang Chung is exhibit #1 on how a bad name can hurt your career.

Great tune!
Huh, I had no idea Friedkin directed “Deal Of The Century”
Dude made the best car chase scenes.
Huh, not part of the Criterion Collection. Figured that would have made the cut.
No Friedkin at all, in fact. Which seems odd. Rights issue, perhaps.
Everyone knows Jesus loves abortion.
Sharpton shared the remarks in response to the Supreme Court’s recent ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade and return laws regarding abortion to states.
“I am incensed and insulted they have hijacked the Bible and Jesus to distort and misquote, well it’s not even a misquote — create quotes that are not there to justify a right-wing kind of ideology that would take away the rights of women and then scheduled to take other people’s rights,” Sharpton told Scarborough, according to Newsbusters.
“And what is strange to me, Joe, they can see a scripture that is not there about abortion but they couldn’t see love your neighbor when it came down to putting things through that would help the poor and help the needy,” he added.
Read more biblically accurate interpretations in his upcoming autobiography, Al Sharpton: Man of True Christian Principles.
Luke 1:41-44
41 When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. 42 In a loud voice she exclaimed: “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear! 43 But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.
But I’m sure that totally serious, Bible reading, Reverend Al Sharpton is familiar with this scripture.
The immaculate abortion.
To be fair, he probably has only read the King James LeBron version of the bible.
Are you joking? If Putin were a woman he wouldn’t have invaded Ukraine?
Has no one heard of Catherine the Great? A Russian woman who did exactly that?
Why does this piss me off so much? And why is it making me go all Judge Nap?
Okay she wasn’t a Russian native but you get the idea.
There is a long history of tsars marrying Germans. By the time you get to Nicholas II, the royal family blood was more German than Russian.
She successfully learned to speak Russian. Unlike her husband who had some Russian blood. Let’s say he wasn’t popular at the court.
He says what he’s supposed to say and his colorful past stays buried.
NJ Family Gets Hate Mail Deluge — Because They Live in Same Home Justice Alito Did
“The incidents stem from a six-second TikTok video that has caused days of headaches and paranoia for the family. ”

This just proves how many people are sick, evil, and cowardly.
Now heroes, try serving everyone’s family the same way. Not just this one.
Mr. Mika is such a dishonest cunte.
“He will throw you under the bus. He will stab you in the back. He will let you rot in jail. Defend the country. Or, well, get ready to pay a criminal defense attorney a lot of money,” Joe Scarborough warns Mark Meadows.
Now… go back and watch the video again with the premise that Lydia secretly has a penis.
What other premise is there?
He got 30 years.
Comin’ down harder on the brother than on the white she-devil. What does that tell you about systemic racism!
I caught that, too.
Crawford doesn’t care whether fans are ready for people like him to appear on their televisions and in their stadiums, because unabashed gender expression like his is the future.
Oddly enough, I couldn’t give a fuck about this attention whore.

Oh he is, given the Supreme Court decision about the praying coach.
Right? That’s why I was so surprised. The Morons keep trying to draw comparisons between him kneeling for BLM and a coach praying on the field. It’s an apples and something-that-isn’t-even-a-fruit comparison.
How about apples and durian fruit?
A Clockwork Orange?
The midterm variant is upon us.
A new COVID wave appears to be starting in New York City, fueled by the strongest subvariant of the omicron strain of coronavirus to date, one of the city’s top epidemiologists said Tuesday.
The BA.5 subvariant, first seen in South Africa and then Portugal, is considered by some experts to be the “worst version” of omicron seen yet, given its apparent capacity to escape prior immunity and transmit more readily.
This is what I think of the next panic.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lNIT_CWUXcg
How come we burned through Alpha and Delta in a few months each, but we’ve been dealing with Omicron for all this time? Did the DNC/Corporate Media’s shared marketing department decide that they wouldn’t be able to come up with a scarier sounding variant name?
They ran out of alphabet?
I pity the fools who contract the B.A.Baracas variant.
If you really dig in I think you would likely find that there are two different viruses, both likely the result of lab leaks.
i.e. Omicron is a cousin to the original versions.
See this image or read tthe whole dissertation.
^
Omicron is the vaccine that actually worked.
“Omega: the FINAL DEATH VARIANT”
/Voice-of-doom narrator
That makes it very much look like all of this was not an accident.
But only for purebloods.
I’ve seen some substacks, bad cat might be one of them, crunching numbers to show that the latest omicron variants are evading the vaccine.
That was true for the OG omicron as well.
Just when I thought I was done going down all these COVID rabbit holes with long scientific articles my pea brain can barely understand. Thanks for the reading material!
How come we burned through Alpha and Delta in a few months each
How come we went straight from Alpha to Delta? I never heard any mention of Beta, and just the briefest story when Gamma got run over by a reindeer.
I still looking forward to Lambada: The Forbidden Varient
Maybe not in San Fransisco.
As when Omicron started — “viruses evolve to escape prior immunity and transmit more readily — but the evolution also favors not killing the host [since that’s counter productive to the virus spreading more]”.
So… don’t talk about more cases, more transmissability, etc… is the lethality any worse than Omicron? If not.. then the vulnerable should keep worrying, and the rest of us shouldn’t. Sheesh.
(Not directed at you, RS… at the media / authors / whomever might try to scaremonger this…)
It’s July 4, 2023, and President Kamala Harris is about to address the American people about Vladimir Putin’s decision to invade Poland.
She’s been leader of the free world for six months since Joe Biden, implementing the 25th Amendment, abruptly resigned on the grounds of physical and mental incapacity after the Democrats suffered the worst midterm election mauling in history, losing 120 House seats and eight Senate seats.
This beat President Grover Cleveland’s long-held ignominious 1892 record of “biggest midterm wipe-out ever” and meant the Republicans seized back full control of Congress with paralyzing, agenda-wrecking majorities.
(It was reported that Biden fell into a spontaneous catatonic state after seeing the sheer size of his failure to persuade Americans he was doing a good job, though it took White House aides several days to realize he wasn’t acting normally.)
https://nypost.com/2022/06/28/if-you-think-joe-biden-is-bad-just-imagine-president-kamala/
*cackles*
On that subject…
https://www.glibertarians.com/2021/08/the-spark-chapter-1/
Except you don’t need to invoke anything to resign, you just do it. The 25th allows others to force you out without the mess of an et tu, Brute moment.
And here I thought I loathed Piers Morgan.
I think about the only thing that arogant prick is good on is being very anti-woke.
This was true of much of the British establishment up until very recently.
It’s about to be true of most corporations and mainstream politics again. The woke philosophy can only thrive in decadent environments where the real concerns of the day are miniscule due to societal and financial prosperity so that we have the convenience of inventing problems and arguing about utter nonsense. Now that Great Recession 2: The Re-reckoning is about to be unleashed, no one is going to tolerate these whiny bitches and their imaginary bullshit.
They’ll all be sitting at home collecting unemployment after the layoffs start.
The woke philosophy can only thrive in decadent environments where the real concerns of the day are miniscule due to societal and financial prosperity so that we have the convenience of inventing problems and arguing about utter nonsense.
Like Weimar Germany. The backlash movement that forms when the decadent bigots press their bullshit during an economic downturn is what to really watch out for.
I shouldve made my snark a bit more clear.
This shit we’re dealing with today was already hashed out by the interwar German academics. It was highly successful until the economics started going really bad. Then the Nazis latched onto the racially focused Marxism and turned it into a supremacist and populist movement. The economic crisis was a big reason why it turned from a bougie circlejerk into a violent form of governance.
Yep. I’ve been saying that for a while. I’m not really worried about Trump or Biden other than the fact that they each just added their own bricks to the accelerator pedal as we careen towards the edge of the cliff. I’m worried about who wins out and seizes power when the house of cards collapses. Left wing or right wing won’t matter, it will be some authoritarians that promise to restore us to our former glory if we just hand over all the power to them. And the masses, having learned nothing, will cheer.
Considering that the last recession gave us Obama, I’m thinking the material deprivation that’s necessary for the effect you describe is going to have to be quite a bit more severe than a mere recession.
But Downing Street said there was “not a deliberate policy” to publicly belittle Mr Putin.
Pussies.

Worthington Industries is the only U.S. maker of lightweight recyclable cylinders for transporting refrigerants. Chinese manufacturers are our main competitors. In April 2021 the Commerce Department found that China acted illegally in subsidizing this market by selling at less than fair market value. Two weeks later the EPA made a surprise announcement that it would ban making nonrefillable cylinders in the U.S. starting July 1, 2025. This will result in shortages and higher prices

Rumor has it that West Virginia v EPA is going to drop tomorrow, and that it’s not going to be favorable to the regulatory state.
I’m gonna need new barrels to collect all these liberal tears.
I might have to get a Clarence Thomas tattoo. No so much because I admire him, but because how many of said tears it would produce.
If Thomas writes this opinion too, his eyes would literally glow red.
At that point, the reason I get the tattoo is out of admiration for him.
Get his name tattoo’d across your knuckles. CLAR and ENCE
I’d love to see it. I’m not sure I see Kavanaugh or Roberts being willing to take a hard line against the administrative state.
Narrowly tailored decision is my guess. I hope they disappoint me.
It will drop tomorrow.
Too bad I don’t live in a blue city. All the protestors’ fires and explosions would save me a bundle on having to buy my own 4th of July fireworks.
That (and this is me saying this) would be even bigger than Bruen.
The thing to understand about Bruen isn’t so much the gun law part itself, it was the evisceration Thomas delivered upon intermediate scrutiny. In my [wildest] dreams, rational basis would go next.
The EPA fulfills the same critical role in American Society that the Saudi Ministry for the Suppression of Vice and the Promotion of Virtue does in Saudi society. Just as it’s vitally important that society prefer a charred, dead schoolgirl over one who escapes a burning boarding school dressed unchastely, it’s vitally important that society prefers poverty and suffering over a comfortable existence that visibly alters the Earth.
You could do this same comparison with dozens of other agencies and, adjusting the language slightly for each agency’s specific “mission”, the comparison would be similarly apt.
Stealing this.
Saudi Ministry for the Suppression of Vice
I believe that’s led by their Vice President.
If there isn’t some grand conspiracy to wreck the economy they’re doing a damn good job of making it appear that way.
There’s no conspiracy dude. It’s all happening because Putin is a no good jerk!
I’ve never heard of this web site, but they have video of a Columbian presidential candidate partying on a yacht with Pfizer execs and a bunch of our own Q’s friends.

Well that worked a treat – managed to mow the entire back yard on a single battery charge. Think that’s the first time I’ve managed that (maybe one other…?) – guess it’s all a matter of yard condition and grass and weather.
Also started to dismantle a raised planter in one corner – need to make space for planting another tree – ordered an American Hornbeam – which will hopefully provide more drainage assistance and patio shade in the long term. Will also free up some loose dirt I can use in another low spot.
“Dr. Fauci reveals ‘COVID rebound’ after Pfizer’s Paxlovid treatment”
My neighbor is a Pfizer sales rep who took Paxlovid for his Covid. He says it worked for him. He also tried pushing it on his daughter because she has Covid now, and she told him there’s no way she’s taking an experimental drug. He said, “It’s not experimental. It’s off label.” I just smile and nod and think, “Oh, like HCQ or Ivermectin, but more expensive.”
He obviously has drunk the Kool-Aid.
His paycheck relies on the Kool-Aid.
I thought you weren’t supposed to take it if you were vaccinated.
I love the name Paxlovid. Hilarious.
https://youtu.be/U-NVs68X_S4
You laugh now, but wait until Fauci becomes a Reaver, blacksmith god.
I hope the old fucker dies by his own recommendations.

Oh…so nice. My mom was a counted-cross-stich master. She would have loved that. Very nice, Mo’.
Thanks! I’m working on this one now. It’s for my mom. I don’t usually make things for people, as relationships sour (mine do anyway), then sometimes people don’t like what you made for them. I make them and put them in my tub. But I don’t think my relationship with my 78yo mom’s going to sour at this point and she freakin’ GUSHED over this. So there. I’ll get it back when she shuffles off this mortal coil.
The PM Jesus Loves Me got me a little misty. I have a Christmas ornament she made with hat design years ago. I’m going to try and remember to get some pics of the Christmas stockings she made for all of us. They were her crowning achievements. She had hundreds of hours into each of them. So special. I wish I would have appreciated them more when she was alive.

After getting my mouth tortured this morning, I just got my tootsies pampered with a pedi! ☺️ https://imgur.com/a/NOmnIpH
I feel like you’ve been around here long enough to know that you need to watch your phrasing.
She’s been around here long enough that she’s fully aware of her phrasing 😉

Dude! I got TWO temporary crowns on my teeth this morning! 🦷🦷🤕
Sheesh! 😉
Were you eating Imperial Margarine?
So, everyone’s just going to leave that one on the table?
*whistles innocently*
So you’re just putting your lips together and blowing?
Seems the right thing to do. Sounds like she’s already spent enough time under the table today.
Yep. Ain’t touchin’ it.
That’s not what she said!
Sadly, that is, in fact, precisely what she said. {pout}
She wouldn’t even love it and squeeze it and call it George.
I’m scarred for life. For LIFE, I tell you!
“I’m scarred for life.”
Maybe THAT’S why she wouldn’t touch it.
Chicks dig scars. It is known. And accepted.
(Plus, they’re like “ribbed for your pleasure.” C’mon! — who doesn’t love that ?!?)
Disappointed
Disappointed, once more.
*that sounds like the Pet Shop Boys*
How did I forget that that band? 80’s supergroup.
What are you touching?
Guessed it.
*high fives self*
Me too!
Guess? If it had been anything else it would’ve been very disappoint.
Sometimes YT comments are amazing:
I may have to amend my will.
Alright, I’ll throw this out there.
Bee is at it again VBS themes
Bee also hits back to back grandslams on Maxwell.
That’s gold!

Should be an interesting show.
I’m proud to be an American
Where at least I know I’m free (LOL)
Uh oh.
STEVE SMITH sighting!
* freshens lipstick *
Every so often, I wanna eat a stupid amount of CostCo’s “Kirkland Signature™ Extra-Large Peanuts” and drink shitty California white wine until I pass out and my long-suffering SU has to drag me into bed and leave me there.
Not that that’s what I’m doing at the moment. No sirree.
You can get started now and in another 45 minutes join the Zoom.
significant uther?
It’s a monarchy thing, I believe. Like “colour”.
Nut gobbler.
Will drinking a couple vodka-sodas while I have the ‘vid kill me? Or, preferably, turn me into a super-mutant?
Asking for a friend.
Just don’t go move under a cathedral in Los Angeles…
Didn’t do either for me.
“Kamala Harris breaks silence on 53 Texas migrant deaths, says Abbott ‘went straight to politics’”
OTH, when a school gets shot up in Texas the WH immediately avoided any politics.
Well, why the fuck not?
Politics is why those poor people died. Stupid bitch.
Remind me again – which one is Biden’s Border Czar?
Opinion The looming disaster on Obamacare subsidies keeps looking worse
This is scheduled to blow up in October right before elections. It should be fun to watch and I can’t call the coin toss if it will be resolved.
It’s almost like making yourself dependent on temporary (?) government handouts is a bad idea.
Good news Glibs! However, as expected, the PRNJ is not happy.
Jersey Shore town euthanizes nearly 50 Canada geese found around lakes
As a kid it was such a PITA to get permitted and seasoned to shoot them I never bothered. I did duck instead.
Late birds, the birds that are now late?
I don’t know that the animal protection league is wrong. Either put a round through each head or string upside down on the spot and slit their throats like I do with chickens. It’s quick, humane, and very little suffering. Stuffing them into the back of trucks for killing later with gas or electricity seems unnecessary.
Most NJ towns won’t allow you to discharge firearms so they’d need to get that taken care of which ain’t easy. After that most of the populace would freak about the noise and safety.
So neck wringing is the realistic option.
Can’t they just drive ’em to Canada and let ’em go?
Regular Summer thunderstorms rolling through. Going to enjoy that, and good night. Bless you sorry lot of ne’er do wells.

I triple checked and I’m not seeing whiz’s entry (whiz, you have the second best NCS going so get it in if you can), No ties in the tourney so if you made the elite eight you are go time tomorrow, stay sharSpeaking of bodega cats.ga cats.
Well that’s weird. ‘Stay sharpish’ then the cat thing.

At least it helped the overall average (but not my average).
Got it.
I’m drunk as fuck and not so steady on my pins but I just went outside and hung our flag upside down to celebrate Canada Day.
I can hear the screeching now – “Don’t you love your Country?” “Sure, but does my Country love me?” Hopefully no rocks through windows.
