Wednesday Afternoon SugarLinks – you won’t let those robots eat me

The Chippendales Are Unionizing!

This just in, folks: The Chippendale dancers are preparing to tell their bosses to pony on up. No, I’m not talking about the Ginuwine kind of pony. I mean, they’re moving forward with a historic effort to earn a bit more than some wrinkled bills from a bachelorette party (or a group of Mormon moms-turned-TikTokers-turned-reality stars).

On Tuesday, The Hollywood Reporter reported that the famous dancers were seeking to unionize with Actors’ Equity Association, which has recently been expanding their representation of 51,000 professional actors and stage managers on Broadway. The entirely male revue, based out of the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, said they’re seeking higher wages and benefits.

Seniority rules will end this business. I hope you ladies love old balls being helicoptered.



You know what Star Wars needed? Trans Clone Troopers. Because there can be no escape.

    Very subliminal

    • EvilSheldon

      It’s like someone remade The Parallax View for ‘modern audiences’…

  2. Tundra

    I love that song. And I love when I guess it from the lyric snippet.

    Also, until She went on the show I had no idea the whore show was so huge. That’s quite telling, really.

    Mamala is in… her holy TEM-PLE!

    • SugarFree

      If my theory is correct, the entire election hinges on turnout of base voters, not swaying the so-called independents. So backfilling “Joy” to these core demographics is pretty smart of someone on her team. Certainly more than having Joe wander around Pennsylvania shitting his pants.

      But the optics of what the Democratic core demos are is weapons-grade cringe.

      • rhywun

        not swaying the so-called independents

        Absolutely. Swaying independents would require putting some thought into one’s arguments. Getting the base out just requires meaningless feels.

      • trshmnstr

        the entire election hinges on turnout of base voters, not swaying the so-called independents

        This has been the reality for 20 years, but nobody talks about it publicly.

        All elections are turnout elections. Even if you go all out on independents, you’re gonna get, at best, 60/40 instead of 50/50. Great, you just put in gobs of effort to get an extra 10% of 20% of the electorate. You got a 2% bump by focusing your entire election strategy on those people.

        Meanwhile, you could’ve been feeding red meat to your base, which is 35-40% of the electorate. You only have to get 5% more of those people to show up to cancel out any conceivable swing of the independents.

      • trshmnstr

        Of course, it’s more complicated that that. If you go full red meat, that has unintended consequences on your opponent’s turnout.

      • Bobarian LMD

        This, Trump did a good job in 2020 getting Democrats to turn out. They then voted for “Not Trump”.

      Is there wenching in Firsthalla? Wouldn’t be any fun without vigorous, lusty wenching.

      • Spudalicious

        Hog cranking. That’s pretty much it.

    • Brochettaward

      There are 111 wenches for every Firster. At least.

      Milton has fled my wrath, warded off by my Firsting prowess. He was no Ian.

      Correct. They are not diverse enough. It will not be enough to have helicoptering old balls. They must have helicoptering old boobs too.

        A little FtM action with some sexy boob removal scars and some ghastly wrist scars.

    Seeing alligators on the street in my neighborhood, just a day that ends in y. Seeing them swim up the street… must be storm season. We have power and water. Just another rainy day.

      Good luck. I hope it stays that way.

      Did they clone a tranny or did a clone turn tranny?

      • SugarFree

        Decided it was trans, from what I read. And all the other clones were accepting. And called her Sister.

        (This is not a joke.)

    But the optics of what the Democratic core demos are is weapons-grade cringe.

    I can’t help thinking they are chasing a bunch of tiny slivers of the population, who will not add up to much. That would explain the relentless hammering on totally innocuous-sounding “wimminz health care rights”.

    • The Other Kevin

      The only demo they have locked in, is single college-educated women. Men are leaving in droves, most notably minority men.

      • Old Man With Candy

        I have stories… like the one I was supposed to see this weekend. “Oh. Well, I don’t believe we’d have any compatibility.”

      • The Other Kevin

        I probably wouldn’t read the links on weekends much were it not for those stories.

      • Don escaped Texas

        The only demo they have locked in, is single college-educated women

        that’s probably fair

        I’m open to the idea that 2024 will be won in the married suburbs. My experience with grown-ass college-educated women in the burbs is that they rely on spidy senses to decide which team to go with, and, like men, it’s actually quite reactionary. So, in a last team with the ball will win sort of way, I think the last candidate to loudly say/do something scary will lose.

        Bush 43 was a terrible candidate, a terrible president, and then a terrible candidate for reelection, but I think educated moms didn’t want to unelect him while he was busy avenging his dad 9/11 by bombing Saudis Iraquis and Afghans into (into?) the Stone Age. They voted against the latest and loudest thing they feared: change. W was defending the cave, and the womenfolk were going to support him because they were unified against brown kamikaze culture.

        Will the Stupid Party commit the lastestest error this time? The sisterhood of established professional moms is leary; they don’t remotely love alphabet politics, but they don’t think monitoring periods is a joke. The best way for Trump to win is to shut up and wait; the best thing for Republicans to do is shut up about abortion and see if this time the candidate on whom they project all their hopes on will actually do The Thing once elected….although The Thing is laughably impossible, and if Ronnie and GeorgeHW and Shrub and Trump couldn’t or wouldn’t do It before then probably no one else is going to do It this time either…..but Team Red can huddle and hope and jerk off about it for another generation. You don’t need to be a single girl with a BA to hate the GOP.

    • Shpip

      “It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy.”

      There’s a whole cadre of midwit chicks with college credentials (but no real education or skills) who, in their callowness, continue to believe every whopper they’re fed, from “You can have it all with no compromises” to “Rethuglicans are going to monitor your periods.”

  10. The Late P Brooks

    Seeing them swim up the street…

    Just as long as they’re not swimming laps in your living room.

    “Kamala Harris Gives NIGHTMARE INTERVIEW On Call Her Daddy”

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NNMe4GVTP4

    Is more than one person having Kamala dominatrix nightmares, or is SugarFree making AI now?

    • pistoffnick (370HSSV)

      …expansion of rights, not the restriction of rights…

      Kammy,
      How about the expansion of gun rights,
      the right for me to keep more than 55% of my paycheck,
      the right for me to build on my property without have to ask daddy government’s permission?

    • SugarFree

      I’ve been AI all along, bitch.

  12. Urthona

    Polls look like they are shifting back towards Trump again.

    If you’re right wing, this means they’re legit again.
    If you’re left wing, this means they’re back to being fake.

    • The Other Kevin

      The last two weeks have been bad for Kamala. The VP debate, doing interviews in which she shoots herself in the foot repeatedly, terrible FedGov response to Helene, and now it looks like Biden is subtly sabotaging her.

      • Bobarian LMD

        I don’t believe Joe is sabotaging her because he’s never been subtle. Whomever’s letting him talk is is the real saboteur.

      • EvilSheldon

        Doctor President, Ph.D?

        I can totally see the two of them having an all-out weave-yanking, nail-slashing, drunken cougar fight out in the Rose Garden…

      • The Other Kevin

        Something’s going on. Twice Biden had a rare press conference while she was having a rare interview. Then she tried to call DeSantis about the hurricane and he ignored her, then Biden said “Oh yeah I already talked to DeSantis and he’s doing a good job.”

      • B.P.

        All the while, Trump seems to be keeping his mouth shut, to his benefit. Or the press just isn’t reporting on his rallies and such.

      • creech

        But Florida goes for Harris because all the Red areas are devasted and the folks can’t or won’t be motivated to vote?

    • trshmnstr

      If you’re left wing, this means they’re back to being fake.

      They’re fake the whole time. By fake, I mean shoddily done to the point where they’re not actually representative of what they purport to represent. How far off are they? Dunno.

      • creech

        Heard a lecture yesterday by a retired pollster(Roper and Gallup among others). Bottom line: ignore polls.

      • ZWAK, doktor of BRAIN SCIENCE!

        This is one of the massive problems that have cropped up over the last decade. It used to be that all the polling companies put their numbers up, and come election day, they were all compared to the one poll that mattered: the election poll, and this helped keep those firms honest and useful. But, as we have completely lost faith in elections due to shenanigans, early voting, ranked choice, etc. there is nothing to compare those polls against to check the companies relative accuracy.

        Now, no matter who wins, the other side will be butt hurt and will claim that the polls were in their favor (mainly due to the fact that there are some polls that will show you exactly what you want to see at this point) and there is nothing to compare them against to rule out the shittier companies.

        This might even be worse than cheating.

    • Spudalicious

      They had to put her out there, which guaranteed her poll numbers would go down. The woman is truly vapid. Hillary as more authenticity.

  13. The Late P Brooks

    A couple of days go I saw an article about a Kamala rally where some old black basketball player was telling black men they have to vote for her. I wonder how effective that was.

    • B.P.

      Goth? She looks like a Juggalo.

    • SugarFree

      Cute, but not goth. That’s the egirl aesthetic. Goths don’t play volleyball.

      • Evan from Evansville

        Yeah, but she ‘does.’ Different. Stands out. Ev-Pounce initiated. It bothers me not this SugarFree game remains SugarFree

        I’ll ignore fashion for fashion’s sake, and photos can make anyone look anything. But I dig the vibe and kinda always have. Such characters exist in two habitats meant for such. Some to be ignored, nasty photo-op Magick land for the wealthy. The other habitat is truly ‘wild,’ within nature: Evenin’ pub crawls ’round the world. Japan was particularly fun for that, cuz there was never any creepy, whorry vibe to it. It was just kids dressin’ up to have fun, same as always. Evan strongly approves.

    Oklahoma-based BrucePac is recalling 9,986,245 pounds of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products after routine testing conducted by the U.S. Food Safety and Inspection Service found contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a bacterium that causes food poisoning.

    Further investigation by the FSIS found that BrucePac’s ready-to-eat chicken was the source of the bacterium.

    The workers should be wearing masks.

    More than 3 percent of American high-school students now identify as transgender while just over 2 percent are questioning their gender, according to the first ever CDC survey on teen gender identification.

    The survey, released this week, was administered in 2023 to a nationally representative sample of public and private school students in grades 9–12 in the 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. The share of high-school students who identify as transgender (3.3 percent) is up 1.9 percent from 2022, according to a report by the Williams Institute, an LGBT research nonprofit in California.

    LGBT activists and other proponents of progressive gender ideology argue that more teens now feel comfortable openly expressing their trans identity, which accounts for the increase in reported gender dysphoria among minors. An alternative explanation, posited in 2018 by then-Brown University professor Lisa Littman, is peer and social contagion.

    The CDC’s report on its survey here

    I’m guessing that a lot of plain-Jane girls are swallowing the lie that they’re really boys.

      Meh, a little from column A, a little from column B.

      • Bobarian LMD

        Probably about 5% A and 95% B.

      Adults contacting minors to ask them about their sex used to end up on To Catch a Predator segments.

    • Mojeaux

      Not the plain Jane girls. The tomboys and the girls who want to stay hidden from dudes for various reasons. They’re being told they’re boys because they’re wearing—gasp—boy’s clothes. Sometimes they have interests that stereotypically belong to boys. Because apparently you can’t be a mechanic if you’re a girl. So if you’re a mechanic, you MUST be a boy.

      • Gender Traitor
      • Evan from Evansville

        This is my go-to argument to confront folk these days. Someone, don’t recall who, wrote (ish) “They’re Transing the Gay Away” about how Tomboys and ‘effete’ boys are being tomfooled/ swindled/ brainwashed/ far worse into ‘transitioning.’

    Can vegans eat bugs?

    1. Bugs are taxonomicaly animals.
    2. Vegans already refuse honey as a product of animals.
    3. Nobody is shutting down vegetable production, infact, the Feds are busy importing as many agricultural peons as possible. So there’s no need to push them to eat the bugs.

    • slumbrew

      I’m quite sure vegans eat bugs now, whether they intend to or not.

      (As do we all)

      • pan fried wylie

        Wasting water washing vegetables KILLS GAIA, YOU MONSTER.

        Also, vegetables dont provide sufficient calories to power the prep effort. If you wash, peel and chop a vegan meal, it’s actually calorically negative.

    • Evan from Evansville

      Dumb, taxonomic definitions belie their cause, mostly cuz they’re idiots. I don’t care what people eat/don’t nor why, but:
      Corn/Maize + don’t exist in the wild. All farming, including berry-picking, involves ANIMAL labor. Humans are animals. Uh? So it’s OK when ‘we’ do it? (I thought humans were sinners?) We spread far more seeds+ than nature could by Itself. I’m happy homo sapiens are so well-off and nourished that OBESITY, among the poor, is a primary health concern for western nations.

      My ‘Deep Take:’ I don’t give a fuck where my food comes from as long as it isn’t stolen from a human. This organism has far greater concerns to address than the ‘sanctity’ of each meal. I care about calories, relative health, and price. When I sleep on top of a pile of money with many beautiful women, my lack of care will accordingly amplify. (Those are most days, but my baseline care remains nonexistent.)

    But will she stay bought?

    Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign operation crossed the $1 billion fundraising threshold in September, two months after she took over as the Democratic Party’s 2024 standard bearer, according to two people familiar with the numbers.

    That figure includes money raised by the campaign committee itself and by a campaign-affiliated joint fundraising committee that also collects cash for the Democratic National Committee and state parties.

    The staggering pace suggests Harris has been able to sustain enthusiasm among donors, large and small, as the campaign enters the stretch run before the Nov. 5 election.

    I wonder what those people think they’re getting.

    The one and only time this Mormon mom went to a Chippendale’s show, I was sitting on the outside edge with my bestie, while women screamed and waved dollar bills at the dudes on the stage. I guess a couple of the dudes felt bad for us, sitting out there all alone and came by to entertain us. I had about had enough and when one dude reached out, I snapped, “Don’t touch me,” and leaned away from him. He was surprised and was all, “Uh, okay. Sorry.” They went away. I did not have a good time that night. It was just way too trashy and gauche for my comfort.
