¡Martes por la tarde, enlaces mexicanos!

¡Buenos tardes!  Over the weekend the AZLP held an annual meeting as required by statute to determine party leadership for the next two years. I was unable to attend, but I am happy to report back the group of Hoppean Incels lead by a very failed comedian swept all the party leadership positions.  Which means in AZ we get to troll from official party social media accounts.

Okay, there actually has been some success recently.  We ganged up and badgered a few state reps into sponsoring a Defend the Guard bill.  So its not entirely trolling.

 

Right…enlaces!

If somebody calls it the Forbidden Pyramid, perhaps you should not walk up the Forbidden Pyramid?

Rumors of a Mexican-built Tesla?

The wall resumes construction, Texans are paying for it.

The government is just a warlord, recognized by other warlords.

Based Guatemalan.

Obligatory nightclub beat.  *UNTZ* *UNTZ* *UNTZ* *UNTZ*

Bolsonaro applies for a visa.  I hope he runs for governor.

 

Here’s a good tune.  Yes, this band writes songs about movies.

    Always worth waiting for that gif

    • Chafed

      It’s part of what makes MS’s links so special.

  2. Scruffyy Nerfherder

    Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has filed a request for a six-month visitor visa to stay in the U.S., indicating he may have no immediate intention of returning home, where legal issues await.

    I predict the State Department will fuck him over.

    He’d be better off heading to Belize.

    • The Other Kevin

      All he has to do is fly to Mexico, then walk back over the border, and that makes him a political refugee.

      • R.J.

        Totally. Grow a big beard, give a false name, start a new life. Nobody would know.

      • Scruffyy Nerfherder

        I wonder if he does tile.

      • Zwak says Your Husband is a Polar Bear, Skinny.

        Maybe he could become a poll watcher in the next election?

      • Sensei

        Who would know?

        /s typical American

      • rhywun

        He has a better case for “asylum seeker” than most of the other five million recent arrivals.

      • Muzzled Woodchipper

        Definitely.

        But the narrative is such that he’s made out to be the oppressor that the “refugees” need refuge from.

  3. Tundra

    Ah, that gif.

    Like sunshine after a storm.

    I think building cars in Mexico makes some sense. Or do you think he’s using it as a negotiating ploy?

    • R.J.

      Mexico is the second largest automobile manufacturer behind the United States. Lots of manufacturing ability down there. It also gives him a plant free of major American interference, should that become a bigger problem.

    • mexican sharpshooter

      Its a twit I found minutes before go time. Its most likely a rumor.

    • Lackadaisical

      Agreed, having a bit of a shit day at work, it was needed.

  4. JaimeRoberto (carnitas/spicy salsa)

    “The incident in Zacatecas state took place late Friday into Saturday when heavily armed men, arriving at the bar in two vehicles, burst in…”

    Same thing happened to me when I was in Europe. It was the cops. Luckily they didn’t start shooting.

    • UnCivilServant

      How many did you take out before escaping?

      • JaimeRoberto (carnitas/spicy salsa)

        Sadly, none. I took cover under a table. A hot chick next to me calmly lit up a cigarette. I remarked that she was remarkably calm given the situation, and she shrugged, “Well, I used to live in Libya.” The cops claimed they were looking for drugs. The place had a reputation for it, but I never saw any, not that I was looking. The cops didn’t find any either, so they arrested a couple of Gypsies who they claimed were prostitutes and they left.

  5. The Late P Brooks

    “I’m a threat to the system.”

    We can’t have just any old thug off the street running Haiti. We need a thug with an official stamp of approval. Otherwise the NGOs might not get their share of the take.

    • Tundra

      Haiti is so incredibly fucked up. Where would you even start to fix it?

      • kinnath

        napalm followed by bulldozers?

      • mexican sharpshooter

        Send Hillary

      • JaimeRoberto (carnitas/spicy salsa)

        She’s already there.

      • Zwak says Your Husband is a Polar Bear, Skinny.

        There is a TonTon of great things going on there! You just need to Duvalier the right thing.

  6. The Late P Brooks

    Bolsonaro applies for a visa. I hope he runs for governor.

    Of Michigan.

    • mexican sharpshooter

      A bit cold there for a Brazillian, isn’t it?

      • R.J.

        That has so many alternative meanings. Well done.

      • slumbrew

        We’ve got loads of Brazilians here. They’re adaptable.

        (they are also awesome)

      • kinnath

        How many zeros in a brazilian?

      • Animal

        Twenty, same as downtown?

      • Lackadaisical

        7? 8 if it’s a girl.

  7. The Late P Brooks

    Haiti is so incredibly fucked up. Where would you even start to fix it?

    Getting rid of all the NGOs would be a good start.

      Possibly turn it into a wedding destination? If it is good enough for the Clintons it should be good enough for anyone.

    Post Office SWAT team raids Minneapolis home because of medical billing fraud

    Residents of the neighborhood of Welters Way in Eden Prairie were startled awake in the early hours of Jan. 12 as a group of heavily armed police officers descended upon a home located at 11631 Welters Way.

    The officers were serving a search warrant as part of a federal investigation being run by the United States Postal Inspection Service.

    When asked why the SWAT team was necessary, Eden Prairie Police Chief Matt Sackett stated that it is more accurately described as a “warrant service team” rather than a “full SWAT team.” Sackett confirmed that a large number of officers were required to secure the home because it is such a large property. He also stated that the warrant was a “knock and enter” warrant, which means that the officers announced their presence and immediately entered the home.

    Sackett was quick to assure the public that there is no threat to their safety. He noted a local U.S. magistrate judge signed the federal search warrant.

    A journalo actually did some reporting and discovered that this is all about the owners of the house being involved in some shady medical billing practices. But sure you needed to swarm a house with a bunch of armed asses.

    • WTF

      Hey, why pass up the chance to introduce violence into an otherwise peaceful situation?

    • Scruffyy Nerfherder

      Better than swarming some grandma’s house for a dude who sold a joint.

    • WTF

      I suppose it’s too much to hope for the Supremes to rein in these general warrant home invasions.

      • juris imprudent

        Sure, right after magistrate judges burn their rubber stamps.

    • mexican sharpshooter

      A few years ago I recall the fun fact the most common use of a SWAT team was to serve a drug-related warrant. I never really confirmed it, but its good to see even jack boot thugs find some mission creep.

    • pistoffnick

      Sackett was quick to assure the public that there is no threat to their safety.

      Well except for the threat from the itchy-trigger-fingered SWAT “warrant service team”.

      Eden Prairie is pretty ritzy. I wonder how the neighbors feel.

      • Pope Jimbo

        That SWAT team was totes necessary because “it is such a large property”

        I guess in a world where guns can leap up and kill people all by themselves, you need a huge crew of gun thugs because evidence might escape even after you have the only two residents in custody.

    • Aloysious

      Sackett?

      Did Louis L’amour write that story?

      • MikeS

        If Louis had wrote it, Sackett would have served the warrant by himself.

  9. JaimeRoberto (carnitas/spicy salsa)

    If a Mexican made Tesla makes the sound effect “Arriba, arriba, andale, andale” while stepping on the accelerator, I would consider buying it.

    • mexican sharpshooter

      Hmmm, I might consider it as well.

    I was supposed to see Ice Nine Kills a few months ago, but the whole band got sick or something, and something happened to another one of the bands, so I saw two bands instead of four that night.

  11. Lackadaisical

    ‘One social media user who was identified as Meredith by local media posted the video on Twitter. She said he had ignored all signages that clearly state that climbing the steps is banned and that the tourist also ignored “rope cordons”

    I couldn’t see any of these alleged security measures from the video supplied… So maybe they’re easier to miss than you’d think, or what?

    • Pope Jimbo

      I can’t believe that they are so strict about those pyramids. You think they’d have a heart.

      • juris imprudent

        I maya not believe you aztecally got those tribes mixed up.

      • Lackadaisical

        He’s sacrificing accuracy to reach the pinnacle of posting.

    • The Last American Hero

      I climbed that pyramid in1996 before it was forbidden.

    ‘The 1.5-mile-long section of the wall being constructed in Los Indios will cost $25 million per mile.’

    Geeze. That seems overpriced. But I’m still thinking in 2020 dollars instead of 2022 dollars…

    • Rat on a train

      What is that in California High Speed Rail miles?

      • juris imprudent

        A little over 600 feet.

      • Lackadaisical

        Is it really that much? I would have said 60 feet.

      • Rat on a train

        It gets 26.4 feet to the million.

    Neph needs to work on his woke bike skillz. Just pedaling ain’t enough anymore.

    Beargrease is the longest sled dog marathon in the lower 48 states, and the route follows the north shore of Lake Superior.

    Biking along the route as a group has been a journey in understanding indigeneity and the Native narrative change, said Fond du Lac band member Alexandera Houchin.

    “There’s this sled dog race and community around this huge event. We use a native person’s name, and I mostly never hear about who John Beargrease was,” she said.

    Participating in this ride has changed what the race means for Houchin as a Native woman.

    She thinks about what Beargrease experienced in 1854 territory as she pedals the land. “It’s taught me a lot, as a hyper competitive bike racer, that sometimes we have to slow down,” Houchin said.

    For Weaver, these efforts help build community and are an intentional way of giving time, energy and spirit to the Beargrease legacy, the volunteers serving the race and the land.

    “So much of outdoor activity is hierarchical, one-dimensional, and philosophically, for me, perpetuates the narrative that nature is other rather than we’re embedded in nature,” said Weaver. “This ride, for me and for all of us, is remembering and practicing that: We’re going deeper into ourselves and deeper into our relationship with nature.”

    Neph should a) start identifying as a Native American Woman (NAW). b) learn to blame the hierarchy for why it is harder to pedal up hills and c) talk about how important being a Native is while riding a bike and using GPS.

      • juris imprudent

        Honoring toxic masculinity?

    • R.J.

      That whole quote confused me. Just verbal diarrhea. Since I can’t translate it correctly, I interpret it as this:
      “Neph should ride the Beargrease trail, chased by sled dogs.”

      • Nephilium

        This seems like a terrible idea.

      • Lackadaisical

        ‘chased by sled dogs’

        Is that where the bear grease comes in handy?

      • R.J.

        I assume so. It all sounds rather unpleasant.

      • Nephilium

        Let me get through the Ohio to Erie trail and the GAP first. Each year I hope to plan at least one of them “next year”.

      That is the funniest thing I’ve seen this year. While the rest of Europe is gearing up fir war, leave it to the Italians to have a civil war about food. Too absurd to be fiction.

      I bet she’s one of those tourists who speaks loud and slow and with small words so foreigners can understand her.

      • creech

        That behavior is always mocked, however a tour guide in Italy told us to go ahead and do it because many Europeans understand some English if it is spoken slowly and clearly.

      • JaimeRoberto (carnitas/spicy salsa)

        I can believe it. The Austrian accent is very slow and deliberate. I find their German easier to understand than actual Germans.

      • one true athena

        I think speaking carefully and not using slang is a good idea. it’s the speaking loudly as if they’re hard of hearing is the issue, really.

    Spending all afternoon in the ER with husband for side pain (closest doc appt was in July), only to be told maybe might possibly be gallbladder but don’t know for sure. The ultrasound girl just left. I’m hungry, he’s fantasizing about Buffalo Wild wings, and I have studying to do. I should have brought my books, I guess. 😡

    • Grosspatzer

      Oy. Hope they give Mr. Mojeaux some righteous meds, although I am at a loss to understand how one thinks about wings when in serious pain.

      • Mojeaux

        He got morphine at the top of the visit.

      • Grosspatzer

        Ah, that explains the desire for wings.

    • creech

      Could be worse. I had eye surgery earlier today and had to wait in recovery until my ride showed up. The recovery room had some kind of video setup and it was playing “America’s
      Got Talent” (which I haven’t seen in years.) Pure torture: the host, acts like a hopped-up moron who thinks his shit don’t stink; the judges are Colwell who appears to be focused on whether or not he can make a buck from the “talent,” Howie who acts like every act is something he’s never seen before despite his years of judging similar stuff, and Heidi who oozes “please fuck me” vibes over any act that has a good looking male in it. Then there’s the moronic audience who screams every time a signer hits a higher note or holds a note for one second like they’ve never heard anyone better than the soloist in the middle school choir. And every second act has flames and lasers erupting on stage like their a superhero fighting off the alien invasion or something. Lucky for me, my ride showed up after about an hour and I didn’t have to watch this torture any longer. Of course, Heidi is a “would.”

      • Mojeaux

        Yes. Yes, that is indeed worse.

    Way to make me have sympathy for our POS governor.

    Seriously, I have no idea about the technical working of the proposed lae, but the propaganda coverage makes me want to oppose it just to piss off those who support it. Hell, the local TV news teased it as “Governor Hochul says ‘no’ to grieving families”, which was more than enough to test my stoicism — that’s advocacy, not news.

    • Sensei

      Because it is likely to increase medical costs including the ones the state pays.

        I remember once long ago misreading the signals from a barista; she was very flirty and friendly and I thought she was throwing vibes my way. So I decided the next time after ordering my coffee I would ask her out. Point blank. I was following the “confidence is the biggest turn-on” and “you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” advice. We’ll, it turned horribly awkward. Her friendly demeanor dried up like a puddle on a hot day. We both stood there in agonizing silence for about 10 seconds before she said “sorry, I’m just not interested.”

        I learned that day that sometimes it’s better to feel a situation out unless you’re the kind of person who gives 0 fucks.

    “The amount of sand that is consumed annually is twice the amount of sand that is produced every year naturally by every river in the world,” Puffer said. “And most of that sand goes into the production of concrete.”

    Even if that is true, nature had quite a head start on us. I think we’ll be ok for for a millennia or two.

    The extraction of sand from gravel pits and quarries, he said, often leads to a loss of animal wildlife, which results in a significant loss of biodiversity as plants and habitats are destroyed.

    Setting aside the relative small size of gravel pits, has this idiot has never seen a single abandoned gravel pit? When the extraction is done, they become lakes teeming with life in and around them. At least the ones I’ve seen. Even if we’re talking an arid area, how much was actually growing on top of this very sandy soil to begin with, and why wouldn’t it resume when man moves on? These people always severely underestimate (or purposely ignore) how quickly nature will re-establish an area that man has abandoned.

    This Gaia cult has gotten very tiring.
