Nope, not the links you were expecting, but perhaps the ones you need.
The return of violent rhetoric.
I’ve been laughing at all the postmortems as to how we failed Kamala Harris.
Australia’s long national nightmare to end?
Even in orbit we can’t get away from freaking selfies.
I know too many people who are like this.
Yes, it’s Thursday. Doesn’t mean you don’t need a cocktail recipe, in deference to this being a weekday, you can optionally make this alcohol free.
Spiced Apple Cider
- 4 cups fresh apple cider
- 1 cinnamon (cassia) stick
- 1/2 teaspoon allspice berries
- 6 whole cloves
- 1 star anise pod
- Strip of zest from one orange (I’m talking something with heft, not just shreds)
- 4 ounces bourbon, calvados, or apple jack
If you have muslin bags or the like, I would recommend putting everything but the liquids into them so you can easily remove the bits at the end. You’re going to be putting the cider into a pot with the spices (if you want to go full easy mode, pick up some mulling spices), bring it to a simmer, lower the heat until it’s just below simmering, and leave it there for 30-60 minutes. If you don’t want to deal with that, you could always use a crock pot for this. After that, remove the heat, add the liquor (if you wish), give it a quick stir, and put it into mugs. You can garnish with an orange slice and a cassia stick if you would like.
Go forth and comment people.

Look, if you don’t like the consequences of something, maybe don’t do it, or at least stop doing it, when you find out how unpopular it is.
Justification of N+1 assassination attempts?
mmmm… spiced apple cider. I just can only drink a little bit at a time.
Does sound delicious. I can’t drink very much anymore either.
“ Leandra Medine — founder of the now-defunct fashion blog Man Repeller…”
What surprised me is she had a husband. So what did he think of her blog?
She looks like a guy I knew in Junior High. Big Kiss fan so he grew his hair out like Paul Stanley.
He probably just closed his eyes and kept simping.
Not cider. Spike apple juice.
We generally get the fresh pressed cider from one of our local apple farms.
I reject the notion that unfermented apple juice is cider.
kinnath:
Big Apple disagrees. 🙂
kinnath: I, being of Norman extraction, utterly agree with you. Mousseux is heavenly.
It’s kind of the perfect day for spiked cider.
Also, excellent musical selections Neph.
In gratitude, I offer you the fabulous Justine Bateman critiquing the lib chicks’ freakout videos:
https://x.com/JustineBateman
I don’t have an X account, so it would be wasted on me. Enjoy the music without any guilt though.
I had been off X since lent. Had to come back this week for the fun. No ragrets
I’ve had my emotional low points in life. Never once did it occur to me to record them and share with the world.
That’s what astounds me – that people rush out to record it and go to the effort to upload it.
I prefer a life of quiet desperation…
I just get drunk and play Russian Roulette. Very cathartic.

Any they wonder why people laugh at their “pain.”
It’s because we know it’s 100% performative. Craving attention. The only rational response is to point and laugh.
But how else do you get people to look at you?
Justine Bateman is a revelation – just found her X account this week! Go Mallory!
(two friends of mine – both from completely different circles – are friends with the dude who played her terminally hot mulleted boyfriend)
Rawr.
This is the same Justine Bateman?? Wow.
Yes. My love for her goes back a long way.
Just discovered her account today.
I believed that Vice President Kamala Harris would trounce the former president last night. She said and did all of the right things. She tapped perhaps the world’s most genuine sports dad to be her running mate. She was on the side of goodness and normalcy, and Democrats, myself among them, assumed that Trump’s open calls to end democracy would turn off all freedom-loving Americans. I wanted to believe that. I had to believe that, because it appealed to my own better nature and because who wants final confirmation that they live among monsters? So I went into Election Day full of excitement, rather than dread. This wasn’t 2016. Everyone knew Trump’s deal and everyone, women especially, had suffered immensely under his previous administration. Surely that would be enough, I figured. Anyone who thought otherwise was just a doomer trying to s—t in the punchbowl. But they were trying to warn me, and I was too blinded by imaginary good vibes to heed them. Now I feel stupid, because I should. I also feel depressed, because I should.
I agree you should feel stupid.
She tapped perhaps the world’s most genuine sports dad to be her running mate.
Phrasing!
I think she meant “spurts”
She might have farmed that job out to Big Mike, tbh.
Don’t worry. He’s the world’s most genuine gay sports dad.
Yeah? He does have a strong Sandusky vibe alright.
I had heard that he likes to play the ponies.
One look at that guy told me, “Don’t let him anywhere near my grandsons”.

I we sure we just didn’t witness peak ‘tard?
Are, not I
Based on the crap I am hearing about and seeing, not at all. People’s out of control rants are going to get them fired. The next month will be crazy.
I agree with RJ. I feel like the ‘tard are just getting warmed up.
There is no peak, it is an asymptote.
“just a doomer trying to s—t in the punchbowl”
I’m putting that on my business cards.
“Now I feel stupid, because I should.”
Maybe it’s more that a feeling.
“Now I
feelam stupid, because Ishouldalways have been.”Fixed.
LOL.
Are we just ignoring how Russia openly stated its preference for Harris over Trump?
Why yes, yes they are. Because they love cherry picking.
Honestly, it’s probably fine. I think we have some pretty strong evidence that TMITE doesn’t really have much sway, try as they might. 2 of the last 3 haven’t gone their way, and the 2020 probably wouldn’t have without aggressive fortification.
Their Trump = Hitler message didn’t resonate with anyone outside of true believers, and I don’t expect them to act in a manner that will be conducive with regaining trust of anyone outside of the bubble.
It’s a good thing our enemies are so fucking dumb.
I am pretty confident that the MSM has finally destroyed themselves. They have no credibility left. It is overdue.
I think my two favorite hot takes are of course Frum at the Atlantic, and the SFGate article. Lordy.
Beyond that there appears to be no end to lefty racist comments on Facebook about black men and Latinos.
Also enormous amounts of smug – “educated” people and states vote our way! Retarded, racists, rapists vote the other way!
I couldn’t make it past the first paragraph of the SFG article.
*reads one paragraph*
Wow. Self-reflection is not that person’s strong point.
Always remember, ever one of those authors thinks they’re better than you.
On the teevee just now: finally one of them figured it out. It’s about time. Clearly they just weren’t woke enough.
Back in my early political days I used to read Frum. And Jonah Goldberg. WTF happened to these hucksters?

When you stare into the Neo-Con, the Neo-Con stares into you.

In PA they are waiting on Cambria County, which favors McCormick but had system fails. Not enough votes to tip it even if it broke hard the other way.
Exactly.
And Cambria is currently breaking nearly 70/30 for McCormick
Here’s the PA official Dept of State site. Casey is still losing by a good margin.

AZ somehow has a different number of votes for the Senate versus President.
Sometimes people leave ballots blank for shit they don’t care about. Not me. I write my own name, or sometimes that of an enemy, in, depending on how thankless or dangerous the job might be.
OMG that Nation article…. “we lost because our party sucks but we still have time to mimic Trump’s economic policies oh but by the way we must rEsIsT hIm!!”
Their brains really are broken and it’s glorious.
Yep. When you are out in public, people like that are in line with you at the store, frothing at the mouth in the park, etc…
Don’t mind if I do!
From The Nation Post-Requiem:
We didn’t prog hard enough.
A lot of the less crazy democrats left the party already and brought their ideas to Trump. Who embraced them, as he is basically an old-school democrat at heart. That left Kamala nowhere to go except further left, or to copy Trump’s homework.
“a promised return to bipartisan comity is just ancien régime restoration.”
True.
“embrace radical policies to change that status quo”
Don’t mind if I do, but I suspect we are thinking of different radical policies.
Radical policies, you say?
Let’s start by repealing the NFAs. And eradicating any executive department with the word “department” or “agency” in the name.
No, no, no….
By radical they mean tax us harder, back the Quiltbag+ agenda harder, and calling for abortion on demand up to birth (and maybe even after, you know, because a woman should choose whether she wants to be a mother).
It’ll be the same shitty ideas, only harder.
I’m gonna go ahead and say it. Just whining, not blaming. Not a fan of the new front page format. I think Nephilium said it was basically forced by wordpress.
What’s going to happen to our favorite gif?
Surely at least one of the thousands and thousands of WP themes don’t force this sort of abomination.
It’s kind of nice. Probably confuses the heck out of our minders.
Apparently the previous format didn’t work on phones and/or tablets. I very rarely access the site from my phone but understand that some people read us during their commutes.
It was fine, even on the old iPhone SE. The new site is also fine. We are just a bunch of grumpy old farts.
I even used to write entire movie posts on the iPhone SE.

I know on my phone (Firefox/Android) the few times I tried to access the site remotely, the layout would be crushed into about a 10 pixel width for text, each character being a new line. I would have to go landscape to even be able to read it.

From the looks of things, and I know it could change (but I doubt it) that the D’s will not have internalized the lessons by ’28. And, further, Newsome just shot himself in the foot outside CA with the Resist bullshit.
Oh, and has anyone seen the Old Man Con Candy? I know a jew and his wallet are hard to part, but he was rather bullish on Kamalamdingdong and had laid some bets out there.
Further further, I for one am a fan of our new wordpress overlords. Change is good, keeps you on your toes.
I should have gotten – ahem – in on that betting action. But I’ll take certain vacuum tubes in payment.
Not without supernatural levels of self-reflection and a complete rejection of the decades they spent sucking up to overeducated elites.
The lesson is “We didn’t message our glorious policies well enough. It’s tough to enlighten the peasants.”
I made it 2 or 3 sentences into that SFgate excrescence.

STEVE SMITH FOR DEFENSE SECRETARY. AND BY DEFENSE MEAN…
This.
Transfer the entire department to Cascadia.
No way. I want Malice in that spot.
He talks so fast the conference would be over in 5 minutes.
Mmm… Dueling press secretaries, Malice and Shapiro.
And should Shapiro get the job, he starts every conversation “when I start running for president”

“…to avoid inflaming opinions among those on the political right. ” Why do I suspect that is not true?
When one of your basic goals is to dispose of merit you get what we are seeing now. Failure and an inability to learn from it. They are just doubling down on the very things that caused their failure. Good.
No more Raygun? I has a sad. She is the greatest performance comedian in our lifetime. Alex Jones and Andy Kaufman have nuthin on her.
Absolutely hilarious.
Sadly, eventually that will happen to a person.
The rich guilt I dont get. In this moment I am hesitant to criticize because all of us, myself included are human and subject to the same failures and foibles .
In a recent conversation I expressed my complete puzzlement as to why Pedos are Pedos. The guy I was talking to said very matter of factly “That’s because it never happened to you.”. Just like that I got it…why I dont understand it. No, it never did happen to me. I guess I give off the wrong vibes or something. In hindsight I did run across those types in my youth but they never tried with me.
I also thought “Oh? Is there something you aren’t telling me? ”
Sadly this girl realizes she is ignorant but not about what she thinks it is and thus made yet another poor decision. I also note the ad for designer jewelry on that site.
I’d like to think that these election results will give Dems a new appreciation for federalism and our system of checks and balances, including checks and balances on democracy itself, but I’m not optimistic.
As far as I can tell they want the whole enchilada – power. Of course if you look at the (extreme) left as a religion, it makes sense. Anyone who disagrees can’t be left in peace, they must be converted or, dare I say it, imprisoned or killed.
While I dislike change for change’s sake, my understanding is that this was necessary to keep moving forward with other improvements as well.
My ignorance/indifference regarding this kind of stuff is virtually boundless, but it occurred to me that the big text box is going to land right on those two lovely bottoms. A tragedy of epic proportion.

“Democracy died in plain sight”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Trump wins an outright majority of votes and it’s “democracy dying”. These fucking people are utterly useless.
What did Trump actually say that got twisted into “he’s going to end democracy on day 1”?
“Good morning”
Everything he said got twisted to some form of that.
I think it was his interview with Hannity. Hannity asked if he planned to become a dictator like the Dems say and Trump joked that for one day he would be a dictator to close the border and drill for energy (if I remember correctly). That joke about being a dictator for one day got twisted into him saying he’ll be a dictator from Day 1.
https://www.snopes.com/news/2024/01/24/trump-dictator-day-one/
Remember, replace every reference to “democracy” with “bureaucracy” and it all makes sense.
They’re actually quite useful.
These are the useful idiots we’re always talking about. These idiots are the front line of Democratic voters. Tell them lies over and over about how you’re going to go to a camp/death squad/never have a chance to vote again, while calling all of his followers racist Nazis, and they all fall in line for your cause.
Refute fucking retarded. Damaged perhaps beyond hope. But they are not useless to those who ruined them.
Useful to me too, in terms of stay far away from.
Yep. And there’s a bunch of them out there, emotionally toddlers, broken brains, thinking that literally Hitler is coming for them.
Assuming 10% are capable of following basic directions, I see an uptick in non-FBI assisted domestic attacks.
I don’t think we’ll see a return to the SDS/Weather Underground/May 13 Communist Organization bombings of the 70’s. For one thing, our current class of broken-brained antisocial personality disorder types doesn’t have the Cuban and Libyan advisors supplying them with raw materials and technical instruction.
For another, guns are going to be the preferred means of violent revolution rather than bombs. Guns are more readily available, carry less risk to the operators, and you get an automatic agitprop two-fer – kill a bunch of fascists, in such a way that you can readily blame the victims.
We need to be ready for this.
a LOT more people carrying these days compared to the 70s. Huge changes across the country compared to that period.
I’d like to let all you know that by having those links in my feed, and clicking on them to share, it only makes my feed get more bizarre as time goes on. I could have likely put together a links section of nothing but pieces like that for every word. I tried to pick the ones with the most unhinged pull quote or headline.
Based on the comments, I would say I was successful.
I enjoyed it. I am in a politically mixed household, so I can’t really dance a jig here. This worked!
R.J.:
The girlfriend is a soft libertarian. But she 100% voted for Trump and was irritated that I skipped voting due to the line.
She’s been requesting more of the videos and hunting down her own reaction videos. FFS, she wanted to watch the View yesterday to watch them cry.
Lucky. The wife was truly sad Kamala lost and thought Kamala was just misunderstood.
She is not misunderstood. Wife didnt notice when she gave her ‘with one stroke of the pen I could destroy people’ speech?
I dont misunderstand her at all.
I don’t get her disconnect either. And I have tried to show her just how dangerous the current group of democrats are. It’s just wild. She does all the wrong things, like trying to nitpick statements instead of seeing the issue.
Like RJ, I am in a mixed household. I know there are others here like that, but, as the wife hasn’t said anything yet other than a look of disappointment Tuesday night, I really don’t know what she thinks. I do think she voted for West though.
This is for the best, as I like her more than most things, and the feeling is returned. I watched the ’80 election destroy my parents marriage and I do not want that.
Wife is Brazilian. She knows what a woman is. Hated Hillary. Hated Kamala more. Voted Trump in all 3 elections. Abortion is a thing for her, but it doesn’t compare to her pocketbook. She brings home more money, and does most of the bill paying/grocery shopping. She understands quite well that a 50% raise in salary 3 years ago has essentially all been eaten by inflation and that we’re not really much further ahead than with her previous income. That’s stupid. She knows it. She’s also smart enough to know that abortion is no longer a federal issue, and so she couldn’t give a single fuck about the President’s take.
They are not useless, the apathetic welfare leech that doesn’t vote is useless; these people are evil.

It would be fair to describe me as a big fan. Yeah, that is one way to put it anyway. Smart, courageous, honest….yep, the whole Suthenboy dream package. I actually have that now but were it not for that I would be all in on Megan.
Some random thoughts on the political ads I saw:
Dems, after the 2022 midterms, apparently thought that J6/Insurrection and Abortion were their -ahem- trump cards for winning the election. I can’t tell you how many “Trump is going to sign a national abortion ban!” ads I saw.
There were also plenty of “Trump is for tax breaks for billionaires” ads, which apparently scored high with focus groups. The old Scrooge McDuck just bathing in his cash… ::sigh::
After the abortion and tax thang were Kammala’s nebulous plan to give tax breaks to the middle-class and small business loans to everyone. When was the last time that a Democrat candidate promised tax breaks? It was weird Bizarro-land; apparently it didn’t take given the Dems past history.
Hah, the Dem running in my district against a R incumbent ran on, money for law enforcement, middle-class tax cuts, and securing the border. Even if he was sincere: (i) how would he get Pelosi, et al on board and (ii) why vote for a Dem who runs on an R platform?
Yeah, the few Dem ads I saw that weren’t just anti-Trump were blatantly stating positions that nobody believes any Democrat holds. Fail.
Completely OT: EF and I have started watching the Grand Sumo tournaments in Japan. They last 15 days and are held every other month. The next one starts this November 10th. NHK’s channel carries them but apparently don’t keep past bouts available?
I used to think “fat guys pushing each other around” but now it is: “damn these Rikishi are tough.”
Highlights from the last match: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykPIQXOZLUc
Speaking of Sumo, I’ve been watching Martins Licis, a strongman, who travels around the world doing well, lifting heavy things. Georgia, Pakistan, Japan, etc etc
Great production and he is so humble and engaging.
Him doing Sumo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv__i3IQIT0
My issue has been that every decade or so there is another match fixing scandal. Still an interesting sport that none of my Japanese friends follow.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-42178483
The other word you want to search for is “stable” for what Japanese uses for “room” as pertains to Sumo.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sumo_stables
Hey, if there wasn’t fixing then the Mongolians and Georgians would take over completely!
I just started watching Sanctuary on Netflix. It is about a struggling sumo wrestler. Not bad, but I’m only two episodes in.
Wife and I watch the Grand Sumo matches also. Those fat guys are agile and their tricky throw maneuvers are fun to watch. There are many fine points about technique that we still miss, but it’s an entertaining half-hour, fifteen successive evenings, six times a year.
That’s correct. Current basho only. Once it starts, search YouTube for “sumo live”. It’s whack a mole with takedowns but usually is a feed of nhk and abema (both in Japanese). I like abema for the commercials in between bouts.
Nov basho always excites me because it was the first and only one I’ve seen live. Also end of the year.
My Japanese brother-in-law used to watch sumo with me. We failed to bond over pachinko and sake (I was the problem on both of those), but we could sit around and watch sumo matches have a good time.
Not my first sportzball thing, but once you get into it there is a lot more to it than you’d think.
Now I’m a bit sad thinking of Tamura-san (he passed away 5 years ago). A very nice guy who I wish we could have communicated better.
Advice for our forlorn loser friends
From this morning thread, Juris Imprudent: “Why do you think the American voter is consistent or principled?”
I took a look at those split EC votes today. Nebraska district 2 (the blue dot), voted for the Republican incumbent AND gave Harris their electoral vote.
I’m holding to the social media freakout screaming posts are 25% performative, 25% content farming and 50% actually broken people
There’s a methodology flaw.
1 & 3 very likely share the same area of a venn diagram.
I’ve actually done a substantial amount of exhibits work in the National Archives (until recently I held a NARA contractor badge) and I know Colleen Shogan professionally. She is thoroughly competent as an archivist and a historian, and I do not believe for a second that she, nor any of her staff, have modified or removed exhibits to make right-leaning people more comfortable.
I’m not surprised.

Our best- our brightest
Throughout Wednesday, student organizations, faculty, and House tutors also offered chances to come to terms with the election results.
Physics professor Jennifer E. Hoffman ’99 wrote in an email to physics students and faculty that her office would be “a space to process the election.”
“Many in our community are sleep-deprived, again grieving for glass ceilings that weren’t shattered, fearful for the future, or embarrassed to face our international colleagues,” she wrote. “I stress-baked several pans of lemon bars to share.”
For many College students, Trump’s policy proposals mark a source of despair for the next four years.
“Long term, I’m very concerned about Trump’s policies and the things that he has endorsed,” Kushner said. “Trump’s attitude towards democracy and the norms that we have in this country are really, really concerning.”
There is no safe space.
Obviously not mature enough to be at a place like Harvard.
Think I mentioned it a couple days ago, but I’m about 2/3 the way through all the “Beat it Out” podcasts on Adam Carolla’s substack now. Really good stuff – he’d get kicked off youtube really quick with most of these. Two-man show with Jay Mohr who’s pretty funny too. Some really epic rants.
He’s still around?! I checked him into my hotel once ages ago. Nice guy.
Doing a lot better lately. He’s talked about it on Adam’s normal show before – married, lost a lot of weight, quit drugs, etc.
Victor E. Flores ’25, co-president of the Harvard College Democrats, said he was afraid for the “countless people” who could be affected by Trump’s policies.
“There are marginalized communities across the country that are waiting and watching to see what will happen,” he said. “I am certainly disappointed by these results.”
Try not to be such a Knob, Victor.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
SIGNED,
G. SCOTUM
“…a custom job with tassels and streamers and party hats…”
Only if it is one of Mex’s body paint soccer girls or one of the ass slap girls.
Oh…you just mean a card. Never mind then.
SFGate: “But honestly, what does it matter? My fellow Americans, and they feel so distant right now, watched Trump infect them all with his greasy feels and said, “Thank you, sir, may I have another?” That’s the cold, awful truth I’m left to stew in this morning, and many mornings thereafter.”
Jesus, kid. Yes. Stew. Stew away and forth. Green Day hilariously nailed it: Brain Stew/ Jaded. <– You right there, bud. Get to a safe place, far away from me. Stop doing everything, anything resembling something.
*pats head* There, there. There, there.
Predictably, dreadfully written. “…[I] watched Trump infect them with his greasy feels and said, “Thank you….”‘
What the fuck is is/are “greasy feels,” yo? Uh. Who’s editing, here? If you pay me, I’ll do it for ya. (Well. I might.)
If it gets to be too much, just watch some Dank Brandon:

See you in a few for my rare rant and movie post.
“How we failed Kamala Harris”
Do they realize that the German people failed Hitler too?
Isn’t that exactly what Hitler told Herr Speer when he ordered him to lay waste every valuable factory in Germany?
He WAS elected, dontcha know. Pure democracy!
He got more than a THIRD of the vote!
My friend in MN is now a legal clerk of the Family Services Dept (whatever the name) of Todd County, MN. I forget her title and she’s still figuring her colleagues out. They DO have a poster of Ron Swanson but they mostly lean quite Left. She’s only been there two weeks or so. They all jump when a truly deserving person needs their help, but they’re also at the front of the folk who ARE milking the system as much as possible. I’d love for her to write out the worst offenders’ stories, but that ain’t her sort of thing.
We had a rather interesting conversation last night. It went many places, but she was rather… amiable. More than normal. The conversation did not go there, never has, but she had many curious things to say along with her lovely lilt. She’s on our political and social page. I’ve invited her here, yet to no avail. We talked about hopefully meeting up in northern Ohio when we can manage a vacation in our new careers.
Exciting things abound for two folk who lived and taught in Korea for a ~decade before coming back only a few months apart. We both love/hate being ‘outsiders,’ kinda strangers in a strange land, Yankees in King O’Biden’s Court, repulsed yet belly-laughing at the inane insanity surrounding us. I don’t know anyone outside of family or work, which with coming money I plan to fix, and she’s in Sauk Centre with her adoptive parents. She detests them and calls it Podunksville. Would be nice to adventure w that Li’l Lady.
Tonight’s “Law and Order” focused on what OMWC had told us back in Sept.: extra time for allegedly disabled students who need extra accommodation to do tests and such. Murder of a ddean committed because dean turned down a request. Watch yourself, OMWC.
