The CFP is not going to take the 12 best teams, it seems. Man City are keeping the pressure on at the top after faltering this past weekend. Let’s see if Liverpool can match them today. And Bayern’s manager will step down at the end of the season. That’s it. Can’t wait for baseball season to get here. Now on to…the links!

The chart in this article looking at food spending and disposable income is both amazing and unsurprising. I expect this to continue to be ignored by most of the MSM.

As I said with Biden’s X post on shrinkflation during the super bowl – you know who else has a few less potato chips in the bag?
Everybody sees this when they go to the grocery store, or they get a $100 bill every time they go out for dinner for two. But you have Krugnuts and Biden and the rest of the regime saying inflation is down and the economy is surprisingly great. People are not buying their bullshit.

A coworker once asked the UPS guy why delivery drivers weren’t supposed to go down a certain driveway. Apparently, he had actually gone down there, once.
“What’s down there?”
He told her it was a naked man wearing a dog collar and tied to a stake in the ground. A woman was whipping him with a cord.
Is there something wrong with that?

It’s hard to find a picture of Sherman Fairchild, but Arthur Rock’s picture is on his Wikipedia article.
It just spits out generic info that it cannot create that type of image. Same response as any other type of male requested. Not sure the point here. Its the framing of the question they have blocked out. One asked ‘an image of a pope’ not a specific person and it spits out what a pope might look like.
However…I asked for a typical mid-west farmer and it gave me some line that it could be so many things! To include that they could be hispanic or other such things!
Then asked for a hockey player: Native-American female given, black female goaltender and I am assuming a brown skinned player.
I finally got one! Iowa couple on a farm…produced one white male.
Texas Rancher gives me…females.

Strangely, there is no outcry from the media.
Get ready for the same tactic with the illegal immigrants. EO to grant citizenship, Courts shoot it down, admin goes forward anyway; swelling their ranks on the voter rolls
By the time the courts shoot it down it will be a done deal and basically impossible to get the toothpaste back in the tube.
I guess then it’s time for the death squads hunting down both the illegals and the people inviting them.
Well, aren’t you the optimist.
I wonder how many illegals processed by the bsystem are already registered (d) voters and dont even know it.
Problem solved?
Looks like it.
Testing if this were a real post it would be funny and erudite.
I’m really getting tired of the trans stuff. It’s one thing for little kids to play house but the boys were always the daddies, the girls the mommies. At least the play was based on reality. The nonsense today is being spoon fed from outside reality. Somehow some kids are not living in a real world, those are the ones that need rescuing.
I think most of it is basically Munchausen by proxy moms foisting it on their kids.
I see a lot of it being from schools not parents. The lefties realize the righties have more kids so they try to fuck those kids up so maybe they grow up lefties.
It’s both. And not just moms when it’s coming from the parents.
Obviously, since OMB was exaggerating the values of his properties, and bullying banks to go along with those values, the TRUE values must be much less. Which means, goshdarn it, Tish’ll just need to seize MORE of them to get to that righteous dollar figure. Heck, she’ll have to seize so many that she’ll need to seize even more to compensate herself for the work she did in seizing the initial tranche.
That this shit is seen as good and just by half the country shows just how fucked this country is.
If we can believe Kevin O’Leary, there is possibly a chance investment dries up in the city from those worried about the precedent.
She may have to start seizing Trump-adjacent properties, as well.
Don;t give them ideas.
Her latest call to seize properties is going to spark a panic in the business world. A bigger than usual chunk of companies are going to jump out of NY. There is no going back on this mess.
They have already made a statement to the effect that this was a special case and nobody else has to worry about it. Which is just mind-boggling from a legal point of view.
I’ll take precedent for $1000, Alex.
In some ways it’s worse if it is just a one off. They’re admitting they’re going after only Trump for political reasons in violation of democratic norms.
It’s the penaltax equivalent for prosecution.
Just because we went after one rich guy doesn’t mean that we’ll come after YOU!
That’s comforting.
Look, the mob never went away, it just realized it needed to pivot to politics.
At least with the mob, if you paid your protection money, they would hold up their end of the bargain.
All of those properties are taxable so what has the local accessor been saying the value is and what has Trump been paying taxes on?
Reddit selling user content to third party AI is such an insane rights violation. They’re willfully choosing to profit from people’s stories, writing, ideas, confessions, art, photos, and even nudes by selling them for use in an infinite remix machine with ZERO consent.

Pretty sure being a foreigner gives you immunity under the ADA.
It’s not a rights violation at all, I’m willing to bet Reddit made a change at some point to the ToS that allowed them to do this. Goes to check if /. still has the disclaimer… and they do, even if the site is now choked with ads (The Fine Print: The following comments are owned by whoever posted them. We are not responsible for them in any way.). Even that disclaimer doesn’t mean that they couldn’t let someone scan them for an LLM.
I’m kind of sick of the creators claiming anyone doing anything to their work is somehow a human rights violation. Pretty sure no one feels guilty about another story about star crossed lovers, even if it was based on a play that was a stolen story to begin with.
Reddit made a change at some point to the ToS that allowed them to do this – hence my mentioning of glibs ToS

I saw something from Gateway Pundit about Judge Engoron having an affair with a secretary in a previous case, but it looks like the “Arthur Engoron” who had the affair is a different guy than the judge who just fined Trump a half billion dollars.
The guy who fined Trump looks like he couldn’t have an affair with a bowl of oatmeal.
A killer given the same hospital order as schizophrenic Nottingham attacker Valdo Calocane spent just two years in a secure ward before being freed.
Humphrey Burke was given an indefinite hospital order for the manslaughter of a prison van attendant and grandmother who he kicked to death while on his way to court. But the 30-year-old having now been released has raised fears Calocane – who murdered three people during a knife rampage last summer – could also be aided by legal loopholes and soon be free.
Lorraine Barwell, 54, was killed by Burke in the summer of 2015 as she escorted him to be sentenced at Blackfriars Crown Court for arson and attempted robbery. Like the loved ones of Calocane’s victims, her family were led to believe he would never be set free despite having avoided a full jury trial on murder charges.
But their worst fears have been realised with pictures showing him roaming in public unsupervised after just 24 months, including going grocery shopping and working out at a packed boxing gym in Oxford. He avoided prison with a psychiatric hospital sentence in January 2022 when prosecutors accepted his plea of guilty to manslaughter on the basis of diminished responsibility.

How many times have you encountered this headline?
It’s often repeated by those who wish to downplay the the Islamic overrepresentation in group CSE
In this thread, I will show how contemptibly misleading this headline is and reveal the truth behind the grooming gang scandal
It’s important to note that the Home Office report didn’t directly investigate grooming gangs. Instead, it relied on earlier reports using data predating the cover-up revelation.
The majority of convictions occurred after 2015
10/ This equates to 1 in 2200 Muslims (aged 16+) being arrested for these crimes, giving them a 92.7 times higher likelihood of arrest compared to non-Muslims.
Further stratification by nationality shows that 1 in 1700 Pakistanis have faced arrest for group-CSE.

Europe’s Oldest Human-Made ‘Megastructure’ Discovered under Baltic Sea
Archaeologists have discovered what may be Europe’s oldest human-made megastructure, submerged below the Baltic Sea and dubbed the Blinkerwall
Archaeologists have identified what may be Europe’s oldest human-made megastructure, submerged 21 meters below the Baltic Sea in the Bay of Mecklenburg, Germany. This structure – which has been named the Blinkerwall – is a continuous low wall made from over 1,500 granite stones that runs for almost a kilometer. The evidence suggests it was constructed by Palaeolithic people between 11,700 and 9,900 years ago, probably as an aid for hunting reindeer.
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/europe-rsquo-s-oldest-human-made-lsquo-megastructure-rsquo-discovered-under-baltic-sea/
I wonder if there were NIMBY and vegan activist protesting the wall… Also why hunt deer in the rain you can wait for the rain to stop. Though maybe the rain covers the hunters scent so it is easier to sneak up.
Is a wall that short really a ‘mega’ structure?
Surely anything getting to the quarter-mile length gets to Decastructure level.
I thought walls were MAGA structures?
Well done.

I had been interested in the idea that black holes aren’t real, but they’ve apparently gotten a photo of one recently, slipping out the back of a movie theatre, grabbing handfuls of suns from a paper bag and stuffing them into its mouth.
Are you saying that all the talking during that movie was from a Black hole (you have to capitalize the Black you know)?

The looming war with Russia is going to go so well.
No time and money for operations, systems training, and maintenance what with all the woke indoctrination taking precedence.
Trump was fined $354.8 million plus approximately $100 million in pre-judgment interest on Friday after Judge Arthur Engoron determined that he inflated his net worth in order get more favorable loan terms.

“Polluting industries always challenge pollution regulations because it costs them money to protect our health,” said Sam Sankar, senior vice president of Earthjustice, one of the groups defending the plan. “We’re hoping that a few members of the court’s right-wing supermajority will remember that they shouldn’t be second-guessing sound judgments about what’s best for our kids’ lungs.”
Those rules were handed down to our most holy bureaucrats on laser etched stone tablets. You can’t question them.
That pollution regulations actually “protect our health” is quite the stolen base.
Environmental laws and rules are a good compliance tool, but public perception goes a long way in how industry behaves.

From time to time, I think about seeing if anyone would donate to a GoFundMe that said “I don’t have any major issues, just panhandling.”
It’s been done, both successfully and not.
One of the more entertaining examples was the Potato Salad Kickstarter.
UCS the instagram influencer.
Consciences were shocked
Harvard University and its interim president have condemned an image circulated on social media by pro-Palestinian campus groups, prompting the groups to remove and apologize for the posting.
The cartoon, shared on Instagram accounts belonging to the Harvard Faculty & Staff for Justice in Palestine group, the Harvard Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee and the African American Resistance Organization, shows a hand etched with the star of David and a dollar sign holding nooses around the necks of what appears to be boxer Muhammad Ali and Gamal Abdel Nasser, who was a longtime president of Egypt.
“As members of an academic community, we can and we will disagree, sometimes vehemently, on matters of public concern and controversy, including hotly contested issues relating to the war in Israel and Gaza, and the longstanding Israeli-Palestinian conflict,” said Alan Garber, Harvard’s interim president, in a statement sent Tuesday evening. “But it is grossly irresponsible and profoundly offensive when that disagreement devolves into forms of expression that demonize individuals because of their religion, race, nationality, or other aspects of their identity.”
The images were initially shared by a 1960s civil rights group. The three groups that circulated the image issued their own statements criticizing it.
What 1960s civil rights group, I wonder. I’m surprised CNN would even publish that half assed description of such a powerful voodoo totem. Think of the potential for psychic wounding.
The cartoon is too mild?
Nasser, famously killed by Jews.
Ali, the puppet of noted Jewish impresario Don King.
Seriously, what point are they trying to make?

The pictures used to illustrate stories about industries belching pollution all over the place are almost invariably of steam exhaust.
Yes and no, and I often correct people on that specially since its about to be asphalt plant season here.
You see the “portable” units parked near a road and their exhaust gas is typically around 30% water vapor. Lost of people mistake that for particulate.
If you look at photos from the 30s or 40s of steel mills or foundries, that black shit going into the air isnt steam.

Sadly you are probably right. I am curious to see what loopy loos they do with the law to prove that Trump didn’t think he won Georgia.
It has a better chance of working than Trump’s defense of actually not doing what they’ve accused him of.
You hush! He had bad lawyers, lawyers that should have been more than competent to avoid the fix that was already in!

It’s gotten her this far. The only reason I wonder if it might not work is Harvard demoted its Angry Black Woman(tm).
She shouldn’t be removed from office for putting her boyfriend on the payroll and splitting the take with him, as much as for admitting to multiple crimes under oath, inadvertently, in a highly publicized hearing. I mean, that display of incompetence was just jaw-dropping.
And the next day, the SLAY KWEEN talking points went out.
The eternal dilemma: shitshow or clownworld?
Not mutually exclusive.
My favorite part was the next day, the regime propagandists tracked down her father, to confirm that yep, he told her to keep a lot of cash in the house.
As if whether he had told her that was remotely relevant to anything.
What GT said.
The eternal question for me is: Is the ruling class getting more incompetent or are we just able to see it better now?
I figure it is some combination of the two but I think of late, there has been a significant qualitative decline in our elites, Robert McNamara may have been a sunuvabitch in oh so many ways, but the man oozed competence, our current secretary of defense on the other hand….
Harvard’s black woman didn’t seem all that angry, so the obvious lesson is that she must ramp up the anger.
Clown shit.
Always clown shit.
Another group that had circulated the image, the Harvard Faculty & Staff for Justice in Palestine, also apologized for circulating the image, which it termed “antiquated” and “offensive.”
“We apologize for the hurt that these images have caused and do not condone them in any way,” it said.
We’re sorry we were too stupid to figure this out on our own. How were we to know we could be cancelled too?

A Colorado man has died after being bitten by his pet Gila monster in what would be a rare death by one of the desert lizards if the creature’s venom turns out to have been the cause.
Christopher Ward, 34, was taken to a hospital shortly after being bitten by one of his two pet Gila monsters on Feb. 12. He was soon placed on life support and died Friday, Lakewood Police Department spokesman John Romero said Tuesday.
Jefferson County coroner’s officials declined Tuesday to comment on the death, including if tests showed yet whether Ward died from the pet’s venom or from some other medical condition.
My money is on stupidity.
Anyone who keeps venomous pets for the sake of keeping venomous pets is an idiot with the possible exception of a platypus. Those mixed up fuckers are adorable.
I had a Staff Sargeant that caught a rattlesnake in 29 Palms and took it home.
We kept telling him that one day he was not going to show up for work and when we went to check, the snake would have killed him.
Eventually he took it back to the desert because it wouldn’t eat.
He was an oddball, the pet store stopped selling him rabbits when they figured out that he was butchering and eating them.
I just got to see some Gila Monsters. AT THE ZOO. Those would be the shittiest pets. They spend 99% of time underground, hiding and only come out to eat.
He must have had some medical condition. The bite is venomous, but they really have to chew on you for a while to get a lot of venom in. And it is not usually fatal, it’s for defense, not hunting.
Russia, Russia, Russia!

PUTIN!
Ward’s girlfriend reportedly told officers they bought Winston at a reptile exhibition in Denver in October and Potato from a breeder in Arizona in November, according to the animal control officer’s report. Told that Gila monsters were illegal in Lakewood, the woman told officers she wanted them out of her house as soon as possible, the report said.
Officers working with the Colorado Department of Natural Resources sent the lizards to Reptile Gardens outside Rapid City, South Dakota. Twenty-six spiders of different species also were taken from the home to a nearby animal shelter.
*outright prolonged laughter*
I’m surprised you can buy them. You can’t kill them in AZ*. They aren’t “endangered”, but whatever is next door to endangered.
*Which meant that, when the Dean Beast killed one in a fair fight, I had to toss it rather than taking it in to get an awesome watch band or even hat band made from the hide.

Several years ago when I was in a difficult time in my life, I wrote down a list of I believed so that I could apply it consciously when I had to decide what to do. It is just a list at this point, but I could add a few explanatory sentences for them, since I know what I meant but it may not be exactly clear to somebody else. They are very simple and very general. Is this something that would be of interest as a post?
Send it in, I’ll read it,

When I did my maternity clinical for nursing school. Someone said a mom almost called her baby meconium because she her it mentioned and thought it was nice.
Meconium is the fluid the new born poops out shortly after birth.
The nurses did explain to her that naming her child that was a very bad idea
There’s an apocryphal story of a woman born shortly after JFK’s assassination, while he was lying in state in the Capitol, whose mother named her “Rotunda.”

I’m not clicking that.
Can you milk an almond?

Growing trend. Last year one idiot did it. Now there are two.
100% increase!
And that’s a 100% increase
That’s it in a nutshell.

Still no idea how many shooters there were.
Obviously we need to make it mandatory to pass background checks prior to stealing any firearms.

This has been a thing for decades. Make things harder to fix so people just buy new ones. See also: cars.
The one exception I have in my house is a Speed Queen washer. Built like a tank and has a 7 year warranty.
Maybe things are harder to fix, but now we have Youtube videos to show how to fix things, which is a huge help.
Amen to that. I wouldn’t have been able to do many of the kids I made to the RV without YouTube.
Plenty of times YouTube saved me with house stuff too
The other day I was talking to my wife about our ancient commercial grade Maytag washer and dryer.
We have had them for 16 years and all I’ve done is untangle one of her hairbands from the stem of the washer and replace the thermal fuse in the dryer.
Wife says no matter what, she will not get a front-loading washer.
Finally called it on my 25 year old dryer and bought a new one when it broke.
Bought the simplest one we could find, but it still was more complex than the old one.
9+7 model is better than 5+7. But 5+7 is still better than “best” 4, with bullshit determining best.

Facts, and nothing but
In Michigan, Arizona and Georgia, intense internal battles are tearing through the state Republican parties. The fights largely pivot around divisions that opened up in the wake of the last presidential election. A new cadre of Trump-loyalist party leaders, in many cases propelled into power based on their defense of the Big Lie that former President Donald Trump actually won in 2020, have found themselves at war with more establishment-aligned Republicans … and, increasingly, with each other.
These rifts in three potential swing states are one of the many ways that Trump’s hold on the GOP and the rise of election denial in the aftermath of the 2020 election are defining not only the election this fall — when Trump loyalists could be looking at their 2020 playbook for ways to influence the outcome — but also the Republican state party organizations that will shape their states’ politics for years to come.
I think I know whose 2020 playbook those “Trump loyalists” will be studying, and it ain’t Trump’s.
Fortification isn’t a proprietary technology.
