Maybe?
Well, the Spudster is back from the wilds of western New York, where the apex predator is the tax collector. Oh, and an arrogant, deadbeat university that expects other people to pay their bills. You know, run by progressives. Based on that alone, much less the state of the world, I am working on achieving a state of ambivalence. I am shedding my remaining fucks to give.
But we can still link!
Elon should know better by now. Given that one of the basic tenets of the modern progressive movement is the vilification of white people, yes, Jewish progressives have taken part in it. But the brush you supported was a little too broad and provided way too much ammunition.
Or, they achieved their test objectives and Elon likes to blow shit up.
Mmm, mmm, mmm. Give me another heaping helping of that Southern progressivism.
Porn king to rapist, to Joe Biden.
Odd are, it’s going to be something stupid.
C’mon, people. A girls got to make a living.
I dunno. Because we’re vicious creatures that will destroy anything that gets in our way?
Okay, I guess that’s enough. OMWC starts whining if I post too many links. ‘Leave some for meeeeeeee for Sunday morning”.
Ambivalence…
For Spud https://ibb.co/Lp3w9ds
Bravo!
I‘ve no more fucks to give.

“Many of the largest advertisers are the greatest oppressors of your right to free speech,” he wrote
They are terrified of the outrage mobs. If they don’t jump off X they will be vilified by the ADL.
Isn’t that Blackmail, and isn’t that a prosecutable crime?
Ah, I amuse myself.
The Center for Countering Digital Hate, in an audit study released this week, reported that, after one week, X/Twitter had failed to take down 196 of 200 posts it reported to the platforms moderators for violating terms of service. The content included posts threatening violence against Muslims, Palestinians, and Jewish people, as well as messages that were blatantly antisemitic and anti-Muslim.
Start your own platform if you want total control of content. Better yet, if X is so goddam horrible get off and stop obsessing about what other people say and think.
Haha, I crack myself up.
‘The content included posts threatening violence against’
I’m guessing those were the 4 they took down.
‘as well as messages that were blatantly antisemitic and anti-Muslim.’
And these were left up. Of course their standard for violence and being anti-whatever is probably stupidly low.
I was thinking earlier about how the feedback effect from endless articles repeating the same shit over and over giving the impression that shit is worse than it actually is is what is actually ramping up “hate”.
The lefties have normalized it in so many ways, haven’t they?
This is nothing more than gaslighting from major corporations who want to exert control over social media at the behest of the Dems.
Child porn used to spread freely on the platform along with terrorist content and not a word because Twatters played nice where it mattered.
Yup. I read it as Superfriends settling on a pretext to GIT MUSK.
Kind of like how BLM used George Floyd as a pretext to greatly speed up the destruction of the United States.
And Antifa and friends used 10/7 for the same.
Well, Michigan won. But JJ just seems off.
Oh well, I got the snowblower on the tractor. The trampoline is disassembled and in the barn, and I burned some stuff.
LOL
You’re a native now.
LOL when did that get tied to Jews?! I mean, a lot of non-Jew Dems explicity support this theory so… I’m confused.
Again.
Then they’ve succeeding in baffling you with bullshit
They are just looking for someone else to blame, + jew hate, its what’s for dinner.
Yup
That is a rough 70. Imagine the debauchery that leads to that.
Starting to wonder whether it’s a pet or a child. We’ve been out of touch for awhile. She texted again.
If she texts me back Barnaby was her kid, I’m blocking the number. Swear to God. I’m not read to this.
Thank God, it’s just a dead dog.
I mean
Thank God, it’s just a dead dog.
I’m not a villain. Fuck you.
Context, man! Are we talking Subaru Horror Theater or what?
No, it’s some chick realizing death isn’t just the domain of men.
So did you offer the comfort bang before or after you knew Barnaby wasn’t human?

Mises?
SUTEHEN ! !
Muridae.
A meese once bit my sister.
Given what diseases they carry, I hope she got that treated.
Ticks don’t usually spread from bites.
Edwins’?
Are multiple grains of rice “reese”?

You know, if there are more than one Curtis in a room, they are referred to as Curti.
Not Curtes?
No, that would be curtains for you.
Curtipodes
If there is a family of Curti they are the Curtidae.
I was thinking earlier about how the feedback effect from endless articles repeating the same shit over and over giving the impression that shit is worse than it actually is is what is actually ramping up “hate”.
We’re up to our necks in hate.
“I dunno. Because we’re vicious creatures that will destroy anything that gets in our way?”
I suspect we just fucked them out of the gene pool.
Pretty much the human superpower.
Damn. I shoulda had ChaptGPT write a story about Blue Curacao
Giveth the desire, take the away the ability to communicate the desire.
“Write a story about a man drunk on liqueurs trying to explain to his wife that he wants to copulate.”
“I’m sorry, that’s not possible”
ChatGPT is very prudish and judgy regarding Blue Curacao consumption
I have a bottle of that and no idea what to do with it.

I’ve seen several stories about how “stunning” and “shocking” all of this is and all I can think is… who gives a shit?
Electric lemonade.
Vodka, blue curação, lemonade, and sour mix.
In times well in the past, we would make pitchers of vodka, blue curucao, roses lime juice, and seven up.
Koolaid that makes your head spin.
Q: What does 7-Up have in common with a nun?
A: Never had it, never will.
Blue cocktails. That is all… literally. You can use it in anything that calls for any orange liquor (triple sec, orange curaco, Grand Marnier, etc.), but the coloring of the drinks will be… off.
OMWC sent me a delicious orange curaçao that I use preferentially for that. The Blue Curaçao has been retired until I decided I want to be divorced.
I have illustrated the blue cocktail rule at a bar to the girlfriend several times. She is know aware of it that she’ll point out drinks that would register that, and we had to walk back to a bar after John Cleese for an apple based cocktail with dry ice and a flavored “shot” in a fake syringe to be added to it.
Y U no Zoom with us?
I am not so sure that is the case. We’re all mutts. Have you watched the news lately? I think that fucking thing was goes both ways.
Dogs, wolves, coyotes. There appears to be no ‘genetically pure any of those left.

Og say, pull finger.
The article does speculate that we were more numerous.
So maybe we just fucked them into our gene pool.
I get annoyed when I see people that say in one scene that there are people with measurable and identifiable amounts of DNA from neanderthals, and then turn around and claim that neanderthals are extinct. We’re not extinct by your own admission.
Eh. We share 99% of our DNA with a common ape ancestor with the chimpanzee. Is that ancestor who hasn’t been extant in 2M years extinct?
Was that precusor capable of viable hybridization with humans or chimps? It seems clear that Neanderthals were simply H. Sapiens. “Subspecies” is such a squishy term, but they’re clearly not a separate species.
I guess you haven’t seen the humanzee videos
Less jerkily, speciation is not particularly scientific. Both horse-donkey and lion-tiger hybrids are viable with parent species of you pick the right female parent.
And there’s still debate whether Neanderthal should be its own species Homo neanderthalensis, or a subspecies H. sapiens neanderthalensis.
On the jerkiness scale of this site, you didn’t even register.
But when you get into the weeds, the definition used for species does become the lynchpin of debate, so if we’re starting from even subtly different definitions, we reach different conclusions from the same facts.
I still say we Neanderthals are not extinct.
If large numbers of people have Neanderthal DNA, then Neanderthals were at most a subspecies, not a separate species, and have interbred so thoroughly that the subspecies have merged back together.
Since mules are virtually always infertile, horses and donkeys are separate species.
Fuck the AKC.
At the grocery store, I bent down to pick up a 2 Liter bottle of Diet Tonic water. My Carhartt pants split from knee to upper pocket. I walked around the rest of the store with my blue Fruit of the Looms hanging out.
It might be time to retire these pants.
I think they could be fixed, with enough iron-on denim patches.
Well, everything seventies IS new again.
How old are they? I mean, I don’t often hear about Carhartt tearing like that.
At least 10 years old…
Got some bad news about Carhartt’s current manufacturing quality…
Hawt.
I hope he didn’t get stuck in the dryer later that day.
Well, it would be documentary worthy, if he did.

Just stop it.
I miss the silly goth clubs.
I believe there’s a couple that still exist around me.
I’m shocked. How did the goth scene survive in Cleveland?
Cleveland, the city time forgot?
Are Fingerless mittens the new Assless chaps?
Clearly the answer is yes.
To be fair, all chaps are assless.*
*No apologies to TOS
A common mistake. “Assless chaps” is not an adjective-noun combination but a single (two word) noun meaning a particular state of dress.
heh. I like that you get two (presumably fake) compasses. Need one for each hand.
Well, at least one has to be fake, two real ones close together would just point at/away from each other.
Since manatees were mentioned earlier, here’s a poem I wrote about them:
https://platedlizard.blogspot.com/2023/11/hunt-for-maneater-manatee.html
Someone said it reminded them of the Cremation of Sam McGee. I like that poem but wasn’t consciously trying to imitate the style.
It’s the First knock life for us.
So I was debating refreshing my license with my new address and they said it will now be stamped with “NOT SUITABLE FOR FEDERAL PURPOSES” or some shit, meaning I can’t fly or enter a courthouse.
…
If I can’t enter a courthouse does that mean crime spree?
What did you do? This time, I mean.
Nice try, Fed.
I finally got my act together and pulled together all the paperwork I needed to get the so-called “Real ID,” which was big fun since I’ve changed my last name twice but didn’t have a copy of either marriage license until now. I think the deadline isn’t actually until May of 2025 for flying, at least domestically. If you have a passport (which I don’t,) I would think it wouldn’t be that hard to get the Real ID.
We had to renew my wife’s passport so she could get the Real ID driver’s license.
I don’t have a current passport. I assume they just need birth certificate and stuff, which I have. It’s the indignity of being forced to enter the office or else get a baby license that’s stamped with the mark of the beast.
If your birth certificate doesn’t match your driver’s license, you have to explain why. Married/divorced women whose current legal name doesn’t match their birth name must provide the appropriate legal documents explaining the name change.
For someone married more that 45 years ago, finding a marriage license is problematic.
+1 man privilege
Passport agency wouldn’t accept our marriage license for my wife’s name change so she “changed” it via name change process at the courthouse. The whole identity thing and proving a name is a crock of shit.
Judi went through all manner of bullshit crossing the border to attend a funeral and she has a U.S. passport. Next time she should just wade across from the Southern side.
I applied to renew my Russian passport in the Russian Consulate in NYC earlier this week. It was all pretty efficient and professional. I should get a new passport in the mail in the next 2 to 3 months.

FESTUS!
For the past 12 days Ive been in Washington, Oregon, and Kansas. But when I was working in Kettle Falls, WA I was within spittin’ distance of BC.
My addition from the 80s- Zebra was prescient about the Deep State.
BABY-HEAD! B.C. is a big place but thanks for your thoughts!

Vegas F1 GP about to start. Circuit looks awesome, interesting grid. Hope for a good race.
I won’t make it much beyond the first lap. A 1 AM start is a bit much.
I watched Martin Brundle’s grid walk for the first time *cringe*
Yeah it’s a bit late for the east coast. I’d be watching it in the morning if I were you.
I’ve never watched the grid walk but I know he is a master of uncomfortable interviews. Love him as a commentator. Uh oh, full safety car. I’m hoping Ferrari can make this a race.
Just wanted to let you guys know that I’m still around but don’t have much to say.
👋 Howdy!
I hope you have a lovely night’s sleep.
I’m gonna read a bit and hope to drift off soon myself
I already did that, then had a nightmare that a cat was shitting in my attic and woke up.
I hope the cat shit dream wasn’t real life!
I started to sleep, but this stupid flare-up of asthma that got triggered by a cold a couple of weeks ago keeps stopping by to say “hi!”
So I got out of my companion’s bed at the hotel, dressed, caught an Uber, and came back to my apartment where I have my nebulizer and CPAP.
Cat prefers me coming home too. And there’s no attic for her to shit in. 👍
No cats in my attic, but the outdoor cats my neighbors keep really like my yard. It’s really gross.
Good to hear Festus…like hayek, need to find something to help drift off to sleep.
I had the strangest instantiation of a cramp. It occurred in the side of my lower leg, but didn’t feel cramped at all, instead it just caused a very intense pain in my ankle and didn’t abate until I took sufficient hydration (~1/2-1 gallon of water).
Huh! Weird. The fact that water helped does make it plausible that it was a muscle or nerve problem if your ions (Ca, K, Na) were out of whack.
Hope it passes.
Thanks, already much better
Good morning all!
A singleton today, for GT. John Foxx doing his take on Pater Noster.
As always, share and enjoy!
Thanks, Beau! And good morning to you, hayek (if you’re still awake,) Sean, and Lack!
This is indeed my morning to listen to choral music, much of which is sacred. Doesn’t usually have such a driving beat. 😉
Do you know the Janacek Glagolitic Mass? It’s quite wonderful, both instrumentally and chorally.
It’s one of the 3 pieces of religious music I own, and by far the most solemn/serious.
I do not, but I’ll definitely look for it! Thanks!
I love late period Janacek. Spiky, energetic, passionate. What early/first half 20th century music should have been.
I was making a sammich and noticed that the deli meat (Land o’ Frost brand) said in big letters “HICKORY SMOKED TURKEY BREAST” and in much smaller font “and white meat”.
?
What part of the turkey other than breast is considered “white meat”? The meat doesn’t look like spam or some other processed or glued together garbage. I haz a confuse.
Hey Glibs! 🌞☕

Have a great Sunday.
Mornin’, reprobates.
Mrs. Patzer is now the proud owner of a brand new left hip to match the right hip she received in February! We’ll be gamboling in the fields next spring!

Good morning, ‘patzie! Glad to hear Mrs. P completed the set, and I hope she’s resting comfortably!
Chatting with her now, she is in good spirits. Walked around NYC with the youngest Patzer yesterday while she was in surgery. Shit be expensive here, $27 for a medium Margherita pizza. But it was really good, best pizza I’ve had in years.
For that much, I hope it had a nice, sturdy crust, not that flimsy kind! 😁
Good morning!
One of the advantages of being the Dalit in a community of Brahmins is that I was NOT required to get up and join the 3:00 am viewing of the live Cricket World Cup broadcast from India.
