It’s a good think I left myself some links this morning. It’s a rough row to hoe today. Let’s see what we can find.
Here’s a good one to start with. Pujols is a good dude.
Seriously, they need to put up stands and sell tickets.
You fucked up, Iran. You pissed off the women.
I really think bats are highly overrated.
And the feckless Fed continues to fuck up.
Okay, get out there and enjoy the rest of this fabulous fall day.
Kate Pierson was a stone cold fox back in the day.
The Fed knows exactly what itโs doing right now. There is no soft landing and Powell knows it.
If it were Yellin up there, Iโd say youโre correct. Sheโs an idiot.
I was coming in here to WTF this newspaper headline:
https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared/8KGm31CoTCm8QRizMhNcHA.rNuxkdUTZ5XFmn66efA-Us
So, it’s completely on topic.
Nevermind. Not feeling like doxxing myself.
https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared/TZxxpsg5SECqzRkfTvPEhA.7OISP-VpzjfwMakdWaiR2Z
Fixed.
Yes, that is a WTF.
Who the fuck are these people? And how can they be so effing stupid?
I don’t think you should call Sean “effing stupid” for doxing himself.
Ok, but heโs still a dipshit.
Science checks out.
Hit that ball, Albert!!! ๐โพ (‘birds Magic Number at press time: 4!)
B-52s!!! ::would start to pogo, but, you know, gimpy leg this week::
You’re working a double shift?? That Old Man hasn’t come crawling home yet?? That chick’s gonna get grounded for the rest of fifth grade!
B-52s!!!
I love Athens, but why the hell would Kate Pierson move there?
We’re going to St. Louis next week and had hoped to see his 700th HR then. But he is an over-achiever and got there last night. At least I got to see it live on TV.

It really is good. And the train ride is good too. Take the longer trip.
Back home from playing games and checking out vendors at the Cleveland Gaming Classic today. So I’ll be kicking off the Zoom/Happy Hour/Discussion panel at 20:00 Eastern, as is tradition.
โPeople look to the Fed as the best source on where weโre going. The Fed has information. They have a highly-trained staff. They have no political reason to hide the ball,โ said Claudia Sahm, who spent 12 years as a Fed economist.
Stop it. You’re killing me.
There are reports of something big going on in China. Maybe the PLA has taken over, Xi under house arrest? Much, much too early to say if real but might be worth keeping an ear out for news.
Take with a planet size grain of salt but thought I would let you know.
I wonder if there’s a script or plugin that filters out Ukraine flag tweets.
Just about the only time I’m tempted to wade into the morass that is Twitter is when there’s potentially Big Breaking News of this nature. Trying to follow the “#chinacoup” trending hashtag reminded me once again of what I’ve learned before: Twitter’s a terrible source for news. But I sincerely appreciate the heads-up, NaE, and look forward to hearing what the heck is REALLY going on.
CIA.
Indeed, no one has seen an economy like the current one. Snarled supply chains. Soaring global food and fuel prices, triggered by Russiaโs invasion of Ukraine. Rolling factory shutdowns in China resulting from an unpredictable pandemic.
Circumstances beyond our control.
Bad luck.
I am drinking a Dopplebock, cursing the Internal Server Errors whenever I post, and think Iran might just be a Color Revolution.
Whoa. GlibGods smiled on me.
And the GlibGods smiling on me kicked me in the ass to get me started on my next part of my FreedomFest write-up.
Raspberry Sour here. It’s kinda like a Berliner.
I switched to a blueberry-lemon sour.
I will call it quits here as I need to be up early tomorrow for work.
No really. I will call it quits here as I need to be up early tomorrow for work.
Work on Sunday? That’s crazy!
You can quit at any time.
But you just can’t ever leave.
I’ve made plans to leave New England several times, but it was always either a woman or a job keeping me here.
Explore while you are young. Take the risks now, whippersnapper!

Heh. I’m middle aged now.
Just had a big thick ribeye, baked potato and wine. Followed by dessert and an excellent port. Very good.
Ya started out good and then went and carbed it up. ๐
I picked up 4 porterhouses today – 5.4 lbs.
Tomorrow is gonna be good.
๐
I have a 2+ lb tri tip in the sous vide.
Sous vide? For a Tri-tip?
That is a crime against nature!
Tri-tip only, ONLY, gets salt, pepper and indirect heat. Everything else is bullllllllllShit!
You’re both wrong.
For a decent 2.5 lb. cut: 4 minutes direct heat. Flip. 4 minutes. Lower heat and go indirect. Flip. 8 minutes. Flip. 8 minutes.
Done.

Wrong. It comes out perfect every time.
Tedious beyond words.
This insane death cult must be stopped.
There’s something else going on. The war of the big banks has little to actually do with climate and everything to do with currencies.
Malpass has the right enemies though.
The Open Society Foundation is in the business of destroying countries.
So is USAID. [Deletes rest of comment]
Too late, your government approved keystroke logger already flagged you for another watchlist.
Ya know, right now I am getting the feeling of what it must have looked like staring into the barrel of WWII.
Seriously. The world is crazier and more on edge than at any time I can remember.
But “open” sounds so nice.
Yet, Powell suggested that there is a false precision to the projections, which are specified down to one tenth of a percentage point through 2025.
โNo one knows with any certainty where the economy will be a year or more from now,โ he said.
Whuuuuuuhhh?
Your daily dose of Sanford and son:

Other possibilities for Malpass’s job include former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg and Raj Shah, president of the Rockefeller Foundation and former head of USAID.
Swing for the Fences.

Suck it, CA.
Healing the earth is worth every penny.
We are.
CA is almost 50 cents more per gallon than Oahu. We are on a rock in the middle of the ficking largest ocean on the planet. There is not an oil-bearing formation within multiple thousands of miles of us and we pay less than a petroleum producing state,
Cali, I hate to tell you this again, but you are seriously fucked up.
Don’t they all have electric vehicles?
Poor Until Payday
Anybody else suddenly want roasted potatoes?
Double Spud.
Spud gun.
Burn the overlords to the ground!
Funny how no mention of beloved Baracks infatuation of that shit hole made it into that story.
Back.
Chatted with Yusef, wandered around downtown Manistee. Found out that the Dems and Reps both have campaign offices on River street, almost directly accorss the street from each other. The passive-agressive warring signage and paper notes were funny.

They won’t say anything until they can redefine terms so Brandon can claim all is well.

Toles has a blog?! Jesus that’s just hurtful to spring that on us.
Heโs insufferable.
I canโt imagine what heโs like in person.
If the world will end that soon, there’s no point in doing all the green shit.
And why are you reposting a nearly four-year-old article?
Is it?
Itโs still got that new post smell to it though.
Wait, that means weโre only eight years away now.
*sets hair on fire, runs around in circles *
How many tipping points have we already passed? I’ve lost count.

What could possibly go wrong?
It’s the Biden administration, so everything.

Totally normal.
Good on the poster for trying to de-escalate, but wow that other lady either needs meds or needs to get off them.
She needs to mind her business. If she can’t go out in public with other people, get your shit delivered.
Sheโs either truly nuts or has been trained to act like a crazy person to get her way, maybe both.
Either way, sheโs a drain on society.
Sociopath and acting.
โ
If that were my store.. I’d check the security cameras. If she cut in line, she’s out or I call the cops to have her arrested for tresspass.
DING DING DING. If there isn’t serious blow back on that psycho then she will keep expanding this theater.
I don’t believe a word she is screeching. Kudos to the filmer for trying to deescalate. Double points for filming a defensive video.
Why?
The only relevant piece of information is that she’s causing a disturbance in my place. And so, “I want you vacate this
guygirl off the premises, and I want you to exithimher offhisher feet and usehisher head to open the fucking door.“Is this a prank?”
lol no just another likely newly-minted crazy person in current year.
Karen on steroids.
Upon listening again, sheโs claiming she was raped and his presence threatens her.
Yeah, sheโs just a raging asshole. Five bucks says sheโs a shoplifter as well.
Dogfood and STella Rosa! All the finer things!
I didn’t know you have a cloaca fetish.
I also don’t like spiked dicks, but here we are.
I don’t even know who you are.
My bad. CORKSCREW duck dicks.
How do you think the 1st bottle of wine was opened?
I wonder who she voted for.
Unless the Russians have a virology institute near those bat’s, I’m not worried.
Hiya Spud!
Great song and yes she was.
After almost three years of coof avoidance, both spouse and I got it on our trip to WA. I blame the psychos in Seattle for making it circulate longer. We thought it was just sinus pressure from the wildfire smoke on Wed bugging us, but… nope. I will my copy of the Gulag Archipelago to the Gulch upon my imminent demise from body aches and irritated sinus passages.
Shoulda worn a mask! ๐ท
RIP
Maybe if you had gotten your 37 jabs you wouldn’t have gotten it.
I’m afraid your copy of the GA will need to go on the bonfire with you for health of the State reasons. Please be courteous and write on your skin in a permanent marker about what metal you have in your mouth so the crew can quickly get it all before you are tossed on. Kthankuverymuch.
It would be much worse without those 36 shots! Praise St Pfizer!
LOL.
I absolutely hate these unprovable statements. โIt would have been worse!โ โGlobal warming would have already raised the sea level if we hadnโt โฆโ โso many school shootings prevented!โ
“If I was Queen Elizabeth II’s eldest son, I’d be King….
Onoes! We just came from Washington! And we didn’t wear masks at Mt. St. Helens!
Nice knowing y’all.
I really hope Sloop is as bored with this game as I am. Only he paid to watch it in person.
Societal note- dropped off Tres Ver 2.0 at his Homecoming Dance earlier. 15 year old males still look as dorky as they did when I was his age.
What do you call a cockpit when the pilots are women?
The box office.
Not “Pussypit”?
That punchline gets hairy.
henpit?
Yours is better.
What’s a woman?
Any of you remember a guy named Bam Margera who appeared in “Jackass?” Went out for my normal 1 mile walk around the neighborhood and finally came upon a neighbor who lives across the street from a small ranch house that’s been under renovation (and looking like shit – no siding, etc.) for four or five months. The neighbor told me a flipper bought it from Bam Margera’s parents. Supposedly, Bam had been living with them for a while, having gone through his wealth, several wives, at least six attempts at alcohol rehab, and that the cops are dispatched regularly. Oh, and his uncle, who is on the sexual predator list for molesting minors, lived there too (I’m sure the three families with kids living within a couple of houses of his were unaware.) Just amazing the stuff going on in a quiet suburban neighborhood that you never knew about. Like when a former FBI agent friend told me he worked a Russian mole couple who lived about 2 blocks from where I grew up. Next, I guess I’ll find out I’m living near a coven, a swingers club, or a C.I.A. safe house.
I was somewhat aware that Bam had spiraled down but thatโs depressing.
Frankly, he struck me as an arrogant dick, but still sad to see anyone fuck it all up that badly.
I went to High School with one of the guys from Jackass, Chris Pontius. Yeah, kind of a fuck up, rich parents though. That always helps.
Pontius never seemed to take himself too seriously, at least.
The best potato region in the world (The Red River Valley of the North) is currently in full harvest mode. And it recently rained so there is spud mud everywhere. When I get frustrated with all the muddy roads, I remind myself that it’s the cross we must bear to be able to make the First of all hotdishes, Tater Tot Hotdish.
Carry on, spud studs. Carry on.
You misspelled “Aroostock County, Maine”
Carry on.

Let’s see, shut down the largest power plant in the state and then wonder why we are short on power?
‘Tis a true mystery.
End of the article: it’ll require “maybe some deep thinking about this transition to carbon-free energy,”
oh yes, the super “carbon-free energy” of garbage you’re waiting for that’s made in China and their fifty more coal plants a day or whatever it is. But they’ll never admit it.
Cross your fingers and Gaia will come through.
Maestes and Newsom must be in the same drum circle.

I’m kind of tired. Can I do it tomorrow?
Should Jesus have waited an extra day to be resurrected because it was more convenient for you, MikeS? Sign on the dotted line and make something of yourself. Stop being a useless sack of seconding shit.
I mean, I did a lot today. I’m pretty beat.
When the Golden Firsters role through North Dakota, we will raise your state to the ground. None shall be spared.
*raze.
Also *roll* unless you are larping.
Judi has gone away for two or three weeks. I attempted some outside chores and managed two of them. I only fell on my ass once. I can’t live like this.
My physical attenuation has spiraled out of control over the last year. It is frankly a little terrifying. No wonder that I keep having dirty, sexy dreams every night.
Sorry to hear about your medical troubles.
Thanks for the links, Spud! You are right about Kate. I still miss the OMWC links because with them I am able to rabbit-hole away and not think over much about the real world.
We are here in the Zoom, join us Festus.

“Her brotherโs appeals that they were visitors on unfamiliar ground in Tehran went unheeded as she was forced away, just one among scores arrested that day for showing a few strands of hair outside her headscarf. ”
Is it wrong that I don’t trust it was just ‘a few strands of hair’?

Good morning, Shiny, Lack, U, and Ted’S! (Fes! I hope your balance got better and you’re off resting comfortably!)
It’s definitely feeling autumnal out here at Tranquility Base this morning. It’s warm enough – mid-60s – and still largely green, but the sky (such as I can see through the trees) is banked with gray clouds, and there’s a cool breeze. The Brave Little Whirligig at the back of the yard is spinning briskly.
Wish I could make the little black cat understand that he’ll have me all to himself inside again soon enough when it’s too cold for me to be out here. ๐๐ฑโ๐ค
