As per usual, O’Hare is the country’s butt plug when it comes to air travel. Massive thunderstorms in the morning. 1 1/2 hour drive to the airport, 1 1/2 hour delay going to Chicago, connection missed, six hour layover in Chicago before a four hour flight. From the time I left Glibs Gulch to the time I walked in the door was exactly 19 hours. I want my flying car.
Links?
Hey, was there a debate last week?
“What is my purpose?” “To bring me butter.” “Oh, god.”
Maybe now they can focus on not making shitty products.
I’m just going to leave this here.
Okay, that’s good for today. Time to go harvest garlic. Peace out, Glibbies.
“This is no longer about Joe Biden’s family or his emotions,” said an adviser in constant touch with the West Wing. “This is about our country. It’s an utter f***ing disaster that has to be addressed.”
If Trump wins, the party’s over, man.
Yet if Trump does overcome the “fortification” to beat biden the airplane will still be heading at the same mountain. It might fly a few MPH slower and at a slightly reduced pitch, but the powers will not allow Trump, or anybody else, change the course until after they milk the golden cow completely dry.
At least you didn’t start drinking until composing this post
I will admit that my stomach let me know Wednesday just how much I had to drink on Tuesday.
Is Spud in “Glibs Gulch” for the super secret meetup that no one is invited to except a select choice few?
So maybe he wasn’t invited?
I think he has a house there.
Yes.
I was there for WebDom and l0b0ts marriage.
Did you help deliver the puppies?
No. Day after I left.
Luxury Fruits is a great band name.
Didn’t they open for Bowie during his glam phase?
Their first album should be “Billionaire Bi’s Buying Bullion.”
Or how to defraud the goyim!
How did massive N.J. welfare fraud scheme work?
Did they ever figure out how to stop (((women))) from giving b.j.s?
Relevant.
Perfect Tres!
“…public assistance fraud on a scale rarely seen before in New Jersey.”
Wow. That is really saying something.
When the corruption level in NJ impresses the guy living in LA…
If I wanted to spend 19 hours traveling, it’d be in a car with a rockin’ playlist and a good supply of Slim Jims and Mountain Dew.
A road trip is the way to go.
Though I’ll be flying to and from FreedomFest this year. I expect a shitshow.
is it in MO?
I know 1,300 miles doesn’t phase you…what gives/
Vegas this year.
I drove to and from Vegas in 2022 when it was last in Vegas. I don’t have the time this year to do that.
People look at me like I have three heads when I told them I liked the 2+ days of driving time between TX and NH. Eastern TN/Western VA is really pretty, even on the highway.
Don, you’ve heard the story of how I drove 2500 miles round trip in 4 days and got a husband out of it, haven’t you?
“I know 1,300 miles doesn’t phase you“
It’s my new OCD pedantry trigger. It’s “faze”, not “phase”.

There’s an outdoor cat that lives at the RV park. Every evening the RV park owners call to him to come inside. His name is Asshole.

19 hours was the road time to bring my RV from NC to Texas last week
Are you still there?
No, that was step one of the move. 😛
The final stage of the move to Waco is in August. I will be working at the Baylor hospital in Temple

Nice. I will live up the road from you in DFW. We must visit sometime.
That would be fun. I’ll post in a GlibFlick when we’re settled
Fantastic!
Welcome back to Potatoland.
You should twist OMWCs arm and have him charter you a private plane. That’ll solve your travel problems. If he balks, just say, “Hey. It’s only money.”
Are you kidding? I have to keep (((him))) out of my wallet.
So many wines, so much Spud cash…
I would have thought this was more appropriate for you, KK. :-p
Biden oligarchy?
I thought that the latin binomial for that group was bidenial retardationus.
thanks for the music link
Thanks. This week was an easy one.

Pandora served it up a while ago. Muchas buenos.
Another remake of an early 70s song
Oh yeah, I hope you are making spicey pickled garlic, that stuff is so good.
There used to be a store here in Nampa that sold different flavors of pickled garlic.
Sadly, they are out of business.
A surprisingly good cover of White Rabbit.
I think its a bit overproduced, but she does a decent job.
I’m partial to this version.
I really enjoy this version.
I have this CD.
My favorite cover

I think I should take an ambien and hit the bed. I have a screaming headache and I see the duncery out there continues unabated. I cant fix it, dont drink any more so I might as well sleep through it.
Luxery fruit. SMH. I’ve seen pink fleshed pineapple for sale a couple different times, ranging from $8-$14.
That sounds so dirty.
It might make a good pick up line.
“Hey baby…”
“I wanna taste your pink pineapple!”
Yeah, I’ve dragged the old pineapple through a few ladies
In Judaism, there are defined times and spaces for sex.

They were certainly more aggressive than the Catholic girls I dated.

My Pluggable MSP launchpad adapter loaded code to the microcontroller.
Now I need to wire up something to see if the code actually works
The jumper header I put on the adapter is working perfectly
If this keeps up, I might get the wrong Idea that I have a clue.
Nice! You should feel good about your new skills and hobby.
So I guess our county…or rather us outside the city limits start fireworks now.
America, fuck yeah!
French onion soup is on the stove. Or rather, the carmelizing onions are. The longer it takes, the more sippin to be done.
I made that with lamb meat balls recently.
Big hit.
Yum! Lamb isn’t big in our house unfortunately.
Dammit, I hate when fireworks season starts. I’m never quite expecting it, so for that first pop I always go “is that a gunshot”?
Since I’ve never lived rural, gunshots were usually aimed at somebody when not at the range.
Yeehaw!
Desk pop!

So I nearly welled up watching Big Foot crush cars. Whole story behind on why the emotions but I stoic’ed the fuck up and enjoyed the show
We have 27 chickens. They currently produce on average 10-14 eggs per day. My girlfriend (my eggs sales outlet) broke her knee cap. She can’t drive for another 3 weeks (6 weeks total). Her cow-orkers can’t buy the eggs for another 3 weeks. I have over 8 dozen eggs sitting in my fridge. I made spicy pickled eggs this afternoon.
What else can I make with my surplus eggs?
How many have you deviled?
Not a fan of deviled eggs.
😮
Scotch eggs!
And breakfast casserole you could keep in the freezer.
Pickling will certainly make them last the longest.
+1 to frozen breakfast casseroles.
Ice cream. But you’ll be stuck with the whites ( meringues or just scramble them and feed them to the dogs).
Ramos Gin Fizz party for the Fourth at Nicefriendlynick’s place.
And since it’s the Fourth of July, the featured dish can be chicken catch-a-tory.
A good use of egg whites.

Here is an alternate site relating the story of the “suicidal robot”:
https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/robot-commits-suicide-south-korea
I couldn’t tell if the author was trying to be funny.
The robot, affectionately known as the “Robot Supervisor,” had been a model employee since its appointment in August 2023.
————
Some experts have suggested that the robot may have experienced an emotional breakdown due to the stress of its workload, while others believe a technical malfunction could be to blame.
————
Social media has also been abuzz with reactions ranging from poignant tributes to the fallen robot to serious discussions about the ethical implications of AI sentience and the potential for robot suffering.
————
It has also raised concerns about the workload and well-being of robots in the workforce and ignited a broader conversation about the ethical treatment of AI.
So, it is unethical to make robots do cubical work, but OK for humans?
It’s unethical to make a being that lacks free will to do stuff.
NPCs are easier to program to not be impacted by it.
What *I* want is a gardener robot, that will till the soil, plant the seeds, water the veggies as needed, and keep out the squirrels, birds, and weeds.
That’s far too useful. It will never work.
How to create a sentient being that appreciates what we consider the good things in life and would be happy.
I can easily see such a robot being happy with the work and the product of that work. I can also see a office robots hurling themselves off of roofs and down stairwells.
Now that we are on that subject my yard efforts are both paying off and creating problems. The sunflowers I planted along the back porch for shade are quite beautiful but the heads getting so heavy with seed that they are beginning to fall over. The passionflower is growing enthusiastically and blooming but keeping the caterpillars off is getting bothersome. The pawpaws are doing well but a few more years before fruit…
the wild stuff I relocated to various locations are doing well…two different sweet peas, and half of a dozen other wild ones I dont know the names for…they look great.
I will doodle around a bit more today if it isn’t too hot.
RJ: You are correct. It will not work because as soon as people noticing it working they will scream and rend garnets then shit all over it.
I dont get that part of human nature…some people see something wonderful, something useful or beautiful and they have to smash it.
Some people are just evil. They know their enemy when they see it.
Well shit. Rip Mr Kraft.

Morning, Glibs.
Good morning, U! How are you today?
I’m awake – trying to convince myself to do prep work for the cabbage roll cookery. I have to either find a pot big enough to boil the cabbage whole, or convince myself it’s not a terrible idea to boil loose leaves.
I’d think boiling the loose leaves might be quicker, but I’d definitely defer to the recommendation of the recipe.
The recipe is “Everyone does it differently, so here’s a few observed in the wild”

Good morning, homey! How are things in your corner of the township?
Quiet.
I drove past the farmers market yesterday and looked for a redhead. Guess you werent there.
I was lazing at Tranq Base all morning. TT went briefly, looking for the meat vendors who make yummy Italian sausages, but they won’t be there until next weekend. He brought home a couple of quesadillas from the food truck instead. 😋🧀

Not even a whole number.

So why do you cook such large batches? That makes most of the steaks leftovers.

Karen’s have full blown communities?
Yes, they come from southeast asia.
