What fun. This past week I gave a talk on something I know nothing about (recycling and re-use of glass) in front of 150 experts, and I had less than a week to prepare. At the same time that I had to do a massive report. So if I seem a bit fuzzy around the gills, that’s why. Tomb Raider is doing a fundraiser today for an organization that runs counter to everything I thing is good and right, so that’s where I’ll be, and being very quiet. I hope no-one directly asks my opinions…
It’s my just reward.
And speaking of rewards, birthdays today include the regrettable inventor of the selfie; a guy who looked cute in a pinafore; the spiritual father of Vaclav Havel; yet another argument for term limits; the pride of Philadelphia; a woman who was with a King and a Caesar; and yet another (maybe better) argument for term limits; a guy who played Free Jazz but never free jazz; the most reference author by the finger-wagging proggie crowd; one of the two toughest defensive NFL players to ever kill someone; a fine libertarian except for that unfortunate Jew-hating thing; the subject of many, many sick jokes; and some news bimbette whose name is familiar but I can’t say I’d ever recognize her.

SpaceX launch had mixed results. They got as far as second stage ignition and stage separation, but the booster blew up.
My new BFFs are Everyday Astronaut those crazy kids operate their own cams of the launch and are still doing replays and commentary on their youtube channel.
I have to give a major applause to those engineers. 7 month turnaround and 150% improvement in their systems in my view. All 33 of those engines and their glow was sexy AF and by all means, the hot staging worked, just have to figure out all the pressures it exerts on top of that booster.
Yep. This test basically proved the viability of this rocket system. It works.
Yeah, the launch to separation looked flawless, but the booster didn’t survive hot staging, which I don’t think was much of a surprise. They don’t know yet why the flight termination system on Starship was triggered yet, but it looked like the engines were fully operating so it could be as simple as being off trajectory beyond the allowed parameters.
Overall a huge success, I would say. Doesn’t look like there was anything to hold up future approvals, and the FTS working is actually a big positive for regulators.

She has (no shit) a Black Lives Matter sign on her front lawn (which has not prevented theft from her yard). I asked if I could put up a No Step On Snek flag, but she seemed unpersuaded.
That’s hard-core. After everything we know about that outfit… dayum.
If Mrs. Prole were to put up a BLM sign in our yard, it would get mysteriously disappeared.
WE know, not THEY know.
You’re a more tolerant man than I am.
“I support racist grifters” would irk me.
Seems like a market niche for your idea: a sign labeled “I support racist grifters” with similar background and colors, with an an arrow pointing to the left at the targeted BLM sign.
Her neighborhood is packed with BLM, rainbow, Ukraine, “In This House…”, signs and flags. I’d guess 99.9% Team Blue.

Found an interesting Keto Naan recipe that I’m going to try. If it works, it should be a good complement to the second round of sausages I made yesterday. Might even make cheesy flatbreads (not really pizzas, since I’m not planning to use sauce, and naan is too thick to be a proper crust.)
🤞 hope it all works.
I don’t know which almond flour you’re using, but I’m a big fan of Wellbee’s.
There was only one at the grocery store, which was the store brand. We’ll see how it all turns out. I’ve got everything staged, time to start applying heat.
At the proportions in the recipe, the dough was too sticky to work, I had to add a lot more flour to get to a consistancy that I could even get to come off the utensils I don’t know if it’s the generic flour, or if I was supposed to wait longer to cool the cheese than I did. I have one round of the original mix baking now (all I could get to stay on the pan) and I’ll be trying the more flour heavy mix once that’s out.
To give the original recipe credit, the super sticky round cooked up beautifully and released from the parchment without any issue. The big downside is a bland flavor, but I can add flavor.
Now I’m cooking the more flour version. It had the advantage of being workable, so there are four rounds baking now.
Extra flour isn’t browning the way the sticky mess did.
I’m giving it more time, but this is kind of a bind. If the workable dough doesn’t brown I’m not sure what to do.
(-.-)
Well, I have to turn in my cooking license.
I had turned off the oven.
Of course it’s not browning.
Now that I have relearned the basics of baking (heat is needed), the results are.. okay.
We make naan bread pizza every couple of weeks. Naan makes a very nice crust, a little thicker than hand-tossed, but not deep-dish bready. Mrs. Dean uses a pizza stone and they are tres bien and really easy.

I would have thought Q, of all people, would understand the power of the hoo-hah.
I told Mrs. Prole, while in bed with her, about OMWC’s gf with the BLM signage, and half-jokingly suggested that if she put one of those up, it might get vandalized. By me.
She didn’t pick up on the deadpan. Objection management ensued, pointing out that I often didn’t get her deadpan stuff, either. Then gave her a back rub.
Then we both enjoyed the “power of the hoo-hah”, which phrase I’m totally gonna steal sometime soon.

And the guy only ever gave an interview to the most credulous interviewer on the fucking planet. It is almost enough to convince me that he wasn’t a defector but yet another disinformation play. Except, I don’t think disinformation deserves the credibility given to it.
The Soviet Union collapsed under the weight of its own self-deceptions; why do we give credence to Gramsci (who wasn’t even a mainstream/orthodox Marxist) or any product of a system fundamentally detached from reality? So much so that it is no more.
I don’t think it has to be a KGB plot to be a legitimate articulation of some reality. To me, he describes a fairly natural process that was likely undertaken by various socialist/communist groups. To be fair, it’s not a process owned by the communists. We’ve done plenty of it ourselves to overthrow unfriendly regimes.
We see it playing out in the open right now. Get your hooks in the kids, wait a generation, move the goalposts, repeat. (demoralization) Once the moral foundation of the society is sufficiently eroded, you can fully untether society from its foundations (destabilization). Then the crisis eventually comes.
I’d argue that we’ve been through three of these cycles. First was the Progressive Era, peaking with the New Deal. Second was the 60s and 70s, peaking with the Great Society. Third is right now, with the peak likely being an implementation of Euro-style socialism economically and a codification of libertinism as a social ethos. Whether they get both of those is yet to be seen.
Some reality? Would you say the same of Scientologists? It isn’t reality at all – it is the denial of reality. Admittedly, we humans are pretty damn good at that.
The process you describe was fully in effect in ancient Rome – decadence to collapse. Was that barbarian tricknology – or do humans just do this shit to themselves all on their own, no outside encouragement/influence necessary?
Prosperity is a great thing, but it seeds its own destruction.
Was that barbarian tricknology

Why not both? Why not a susceptible populace primed and propped up by external forces?
It’s not like this is some unprecedented thing in recent history. Most of central and south America and southeast Asia experienced this from both us and the soviets.
I’m not saying and never have said that but for the Soviets, we’d be cruising along in libertopia. History clearly bears out a meddling, authoritarian influence in the US that was sparked by the excesses of the industrial revolution in combination with “end-stage enlightment” thinking.
That said, just because the horse was itching to get out of the starting gate doesn’t mean the jockey didn’t drive the horse across the finish line.

Joe Biden’s America
Nicole was walking through an affluent part of Alexandria, Virginia, with a friend last month, when a man approached her and began screaming.
He railed about the hijab she wore, saying she looked Muslim, and made comments about Hamas raping Israeli women, she said. Her friend corroborated the account.
It was just days after the start of the Israel-Hamas war and the encounter left Nicole feeling rattled, worried and frightened. So much so, that she asked CNN to use only her first name, out of fear for her family’s safety.
“I haven’t stopped wearing hijab. I didn’t after 9/11 either,” she told CNN. “If I have one more person scream at me in public and certainly if someone were to threaten me, I think all bets are off.”
Nicole, who is in her 40s, said she’s been wearing a hijab for more than half of her life. And while she’s grown used to stares and occasional comments about her headscarf, Nicole said she fears the growing anti-Muslim sentiment in the US could escalate into violence.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said the US is experiencing an “unprecedented” increase in reported anti-Arab and anti-Muslim bias incidents in the weeks since the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel.
——-
CNN recently asked Arabs, Muslims and Jews in America how they are facing the new reality of hate-motivated attacks against their communities. Nearly 800 people responded from across the country.
Some, citing safety concerns, are changing how they go about their daily lives. Others have become defiant and more vocal about their identity. These are their stories.
Biden brought us together again with his message of unity and understanding.
Tapped out at the first mention of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. They’re worse than the ADL.
They’re biggest concern with 9/11 was the deaths of 19 Muslims that day.
Yeah, CAIR is bad news. They’ve been caught red-handed laundering money for terrorist orgs and activists repeatedly yet they are still treated as legit.
He railed about the hijab she wore, saying she looked Muslim, and made comments about Hamas raping Israeli women, she said. Her friend corroborated the account.

Since the war, the 34-year-old said he has stopped taking his children on weekly excursions to the movies and local parks. Now, Jwayyed said they only go to school or to a relative’s house.

“I don’t want to tell them, ‘I fear for your life. It’s dangerous outside,’” Jwayyed said. “They don’t need to know that.”
Yes, yes, we all have seen the roving bands of Nazis hunting down anyone who is not a white American. They’re everywhere.

Public Enemy Number One
In addition to the risks posed to personal and civic safety by promoting hate speech, Musk’s actions in recent years have raised myriad national security concerns. Musk has weakened guardrails against mis- and disinformation, which threatens public health, human rights and elections in the U.S. and globally. One of his first moves at Twitter was to decimate its security, democracy and human rights teams and to replace verified users with anyone willing to pay for a blue checkmark — the consequences of which we’re seeing now in the flood of explicitly violent and misleading content on the Israel-Gaza war that would have been removed under previous moderation regimes. He has engaged in the mass suspension of journalists’ X accounts in the U.S. and complied with authoritarians’ censorship requests in Turkey, India and beyond.
Musk’s reliance on Chinese investors and Saudi and Qatari government money, in addition to his relationships with Chinese and Russian authorities, have raised additional concerns. In September, reports surfaced that Musk had personally intervened in the operations of Starlink, SpaceX’s satellite communications company, to prevent its use by Ukraine. Asked about these reports on Sept. 11, Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall emphasized that the Air Force was satisfied with SpaceX’s ability to deliver to the terms of its government contracts.
——-
In the immediate term, Congress needs to investigate whether Musk’s public comments present a breach of contract on ethical or reliability grounds. Congress could require that any company that receives launch contracts must go public, ensuring at least some mechanism for shareholders to oust a CEO should they become a public or security liability. Following the 2008 financial crash, the U.S. government became a majority shareholder of several companies deemed too big to fail after they received bailouts from the Treasury. This kind of stakeholder stewardship ended when the companies were brought public again, after a course correction in the public interest.
Ultimately, Congress should move to curtail the power and autonomy of the ultrawealthy (within constitutional limits, of course). While Musk’s constant posting is an obvious reminder that billionaires rarely, if ever, serve the public interest, the wealth he commands elevates him from a dull conspiracy theorist to a security liability who has no business continuing to draw from the public coffers.
Obviously, the man is a menace. His businesses should be confiscated and placed under the control of government intelligence agencies in the interest of national security. The man himself should be put under house arrest and barred from access to the internet.
“Weakened guard rails” aka weakened censorship.
I know I shouldn’t be, but I continue to be astonished by the number of academics who hate Musk for allowing almost unlimited expression on the platform. It seems there is a combination of elitism (we should be allowed freedom of expression but no one else), ignorance (some of them really CAN’T see that this is censorship), and just naked politicization (fuck the people we disagree with).
Looks like they managed to win some concessions from him yesterday thanks to the (likely suspect) Media Matters hit piece.

President Joe Biden may have crossed a fatal “red line” that has alienated some of his most critical voters from his reelection efforts.
Biden’s response to the Israel-Hamas war has put the president in a difficult position with several key Democratic blocs, including progressives, young Americans, and voters of color, who are increasingly seeing Biden as too pro-Israel.
While foreign policy typically does not take center stage in presidential elections, there are a growing number of Americans who are unwilling to vote for a second Biden term based on the president’s refusal to call for a cease-fire in the Middle East.
“I will not be voting for Joe Biden under any circumstance. I don’t care about any other policy that he has championed. I cannot, as an Armenian-American, support a president who has green-lit the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip,” Ana Kasparian, host of popular online news show The Young Turks, said during a broadcast earlier this month. “This, for me, is the red line.”
Kasparian, whose show has 5.65 million subscribers, told Newsweek in a Thursday interview that she has “no problem” with the allyship between the United States and Israel and supports efforts to fight against Hamas.
Popular online news show, with dozens of loyal viewers. If that is the person I’m thinking of, I actually watched a few minutes of her show one day while news surfing. She is one angry, angry girl.
Amenian-American on The Young Turks – you can’t make this shit up.
One wonders if she is at all aware of how a different group of Muslims has treated Armenia over the years.
No, you can’t make it up.
Apparently she is a loud atheist – which of course protects her from religious bigotry.
BWAHahahahahahaha
She is one angry, angry girl.
And she needs a spanking!

–
At least you can pump your own gasoline.
About that…
https://www.opb.org/article/2023/10/25/pump-gas-oregon-ufcw/
Fuck you submit button
– less liquors that can be purchased outright
– no mention of what was happening to desirable liquors for the past year since the chance to win drawings were suspended
– phony transparency about reporting how many bottles enter the state and auctioned when the state agency controls such shipments into the state and was removing the bottles prior to the auction
– no “outside” “third party” is contracted to do this, it’s all pie in the sky presented as fact. Undoubtedly the vendor will have some connection to Kotex but at arms length so she can be the squeaky clean cunte.
Funny how the people that would normally scream “monopoly” are so quiet when it is a governmental one.
The “control” in their name has been changed to “cannabis” so they could keep the OLCC name. Fuckers are also sitting on top of the bottle deposit slush fund too.
Sustainability is antithetical to Firsting.
Oh, are you admitting you can’t keep it up?
Everybody agrees with me
“What President Biden is doing, it seems like he’s trying to give this election to Donald Trump or whoever the Republican nominee is,” Andrabi said. “I think he’s making a great miscalculation to be more aligned with the far-right government of Israel, and the Israel lobbying and super PACs here, than an overwhelming majority of Democratic voters who have said, poll after poll, that they support a cease-fire.”
Maybe they’ll all vote for Cornell West.
Sorry, the American left – I think Israel is finally sick of your shit.
“Prior to this war, despite what I was seeing in the polling, I really did think there was a possibility for him to eke out a win,” Kasparian said. “I’ve changed my mind since then.”
“When it comes to the 2024 election, I’m actually genuinely concerned that [Biden’s] going to lose and Trump is going to win. The Democratic Party is insane for not reconsidering having an actual robust Democratic primary,” she said.
Arab Americans are not the only voters of color who have been outraged over Biden’s response to the war. Other groups, including more than 900 Black Christian faith leaders, have opposed how Biden has handled the conflict. Telhami explained that the growing support for Palestinians in the U.S. has been fueled by social justice movements at home, like the Black Lives Matter movement, which has pushed people to view the conflict in the Middle East through the prism of oppression.
Telhami said the Democratic Party may be grossly taking these constituents for granted and that Biden is miscalculating the moment, seeing as opposition to his stance on Israel as a disagreement on policy instead of what it really is.
“It’s an image-forming moment,” Telhami said. “This is a moment about who he is and what his character is. The Joe Biden people voted for, may in fact, not be the Joe Biden they’re witnessing now, and that I think might be the biggest problem for him in the election.”
“Just for an instant, out of the corner of my eye, it almost seemed as if the emperor was wearing nothing at all. But then I looked again and everything was normal.”
On the other hand I can point you to The Liberal Patriot who dismisses the pro-Palestinian faction within the Democrats. Considering Kasparian is most likely an idiot (after all she touts her proggie values), I doubt she is speaking for many people.
Yeah, I’m not really following that. The R candidates seem to be competing as to who is the bigger supporter of Israel, so it seems unlikely that any leftist who is unhappy with Biden’s policy is going to switch sides on that issue. Maybe they’ll sit out the election – although even that seems unlikely.
Then, how big is the Arab-American vote anyway? Maybe important in a few districts (Detroit?) but I suspect most of those districts lean left anyway.
I’m guessing pandering to the rabidly pro-Palestinian left might determine who wins Michigan, but cost dearly elsewhere among the swing states.
Historically anti-Jewish constituents double down. Film at 11.
The “prism of oppression” can go fuck itself. I don’t want this postmodern horseshit destroying the country any further, kthxbai.
Hate to break it to you, Telhami, but the politician that anyone votes for ain’t what they’ll likely get. And since Biden wasn’t marketed as a lying old guy with senile dementia doing the bidding of staffers and polling, whose sole qualification was he was the VP for someone more popular, Democrats mostly didn’t get what they thought they voted for.
Worse yet, all too many knew exactly what they were getting and voted for him anyway.
I think they got Not-Trump, which is what they were all voting for.
