SOCIETAL PROBLEM SOLVED WITHOUT GOVERNMENT COERCION OF ANYONE: Non-profit drug maker will provide insulin for no more than $30 a vial. The linked article is from March, but apparently Civica RX is chugging right along based on a paywalled article in my newsfeed today.

CDC AGAIN STICKS NOSE WHERE IT DOESN’T BELONG: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is testing school teachers’ levels of “LGBTQ inclusivity” with self-assessment handbooks that urge them to “commit to change” if they aren’t deemed to be inclusive enough, said the government agency on Tuesday. How is this in any way related to communicable disease? Why is the federal government involved in K-12, anyway?

HUNTER’S TRICK BABY MAY GET BIDEN NAME: The mother of Hunter Biden’s love child has asked an Arkansas court to legally change the 4-year-old girl’s last name to Biden so the child can benefit from the family’s presidential lineage.

TODAY IN HATE BIRD NEWS: Bald Eagle carries off Canada Goose in its sharp talons.

AND SPEAKING OF SHITTING ALL OVER THE PLACE: A federal judge has issued a temporary ban on San Francisco clearing most homeless encampments amid an ongoing lawsuit against the city filed by advocacy groups seeking to stop police sweeps of homeless encampments. Apparently the SF city government wasn’t providing proper notice, or making shelter space available, before clearing the encampments.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? Northrop Grumman has completed ground-based tests to demonstrate critical technology required for a 2025 demonstration of space-based solar power. […] The China Academy of Space Technology announced plans for a 2028 space-based demonstration. While the stated goal is space-based power, these satellites become weapons if pointed at the wrong place. At the very minimum they could disrupt RF communications including cellular and wifi. At worst they could cook people alive in their homes. Imagine NG being asked to “assist” law enforcement using these things.

    “How is this in any way related to communicable disease?”

    Neither is gun violence.

    “Why is the federal government involved in K-12, anyway?”

    That answers it own question.

        By all appearances, the Bidens are resurrecting the phrase “born on the wrong side of the sheets”, and the disdain as well.

      “Hunter had initially denied that he was Navy’s biological dad, saying he had “no recollection” of meeting her mother despite the fact that she danced at a DC strip club he frequented while dating his widowed sister-in-law Hallie.”

        With his history there could be years he can’t recollect.

        And children.

    • Count Potato

      Tool company calendars?

      Anyway, since the CDC is influenced by big pharma I think “LGBTQ inclusivity” is just more of the school to clinic pipeline. The company that makes Lupron, the “puberty blocker”, donates money to promote LGBT shit in schools.

      • rhywun

        That’s not at all disturbing.

      • Hyperion

        Not at all. I see no reason for concern over COI.

      • Tres Cool

        Disturbing yet not shocking.

        “school to clinic pipeline”

        That’s brilliant. Did you come up with that?

    Society made me what I am

    The consultant at the center of the nationwide college admissions scandal blamed his “winning at all costs” attitude, which he said was caused in part by suppressed childhood trauma, for his actions in a letter to the judge scheduled to sentence him next week.

    William “Rick” Singer, 62, who pleaded guilty in March 2019 to charges including racketeering conspiracy and money laundering conspiracy, is scheduled to be sentenced Jan. 4 in U.S. District Court in Boston for running the scheme that federal investigators dubbed Operation Varsity Blues.

    ——-

    “For most of my life, if not all of it, I have thrived on winning at all costs,” Singer wrote in a letter included in his defense’s sentencing memorandum. “My moral compass was broken and, increasingly over time, choosing right over wrong became less important than doing whatever had to be done to be recognized as the ‘best.’”

    He expressed remorse in the letter, said he now lives in a trailer park for seniors and can’t get a job despite more than 1,000 attempts.

    By getting caught, he has been provided “the opportunity for insight, atonement, and redemption,” he wrote.

    He should show up to his sentencing in a dress.

    • Tres Cool

      How is investigating this an important function of the FedGov? I guess if Federal Student Loans are involved, then,…..
      They should be more focused on steroid use in professional sports. Maybe some Senate hearings- I think I read that clause in the constitution someplace…

    “His unwanted notoriety has left him unemployable, depriving him of his self-esteem,” the defense wrote. “He has tried to rebuild by volunteering in his community. He has boundless energy and ideas about programming for youth and the underserved. He would be an asset to society if permitted after sentencing to continue his community service efforts.”

    Unwanted notoriety, he says.

    • R C Dean

      “He has boundless energy and ideas about programming for youth”

    Crackpot

    Bernie Marcus, the billionaire co-founder of Home Depot, says it’s really simple: People just hate capitalism now. Because of “socialism,” he said in an interview with the Financial Times published Thursday, “nobody works. Nobody gives a damn. ‘Just give it to me. Send me money. I don’t want to work—I’m too lazy, I’m too fat, I’m too stupid.’’

    In today’s business climate, Home Depot may have been able to only open 15 or 16 stores, Marcus said, compared to the 2,300 locations the retailer currently has scattered around the U.S. For Marcus—an unabashed supporter of former President Donald Trump, often to his own company’s chagrin—the reasons behind today’s unfavorable environment include the current administration and the “woke” establishment’s involvement in business.

    In the wide-ranging interview, where Marcus—worth over $5 billion according to Bloomberg—touched on everything from his reputation as a prolific philanthropist to his inclination for Milton Friedman’s business-first interpretation of economics, the former CEO lamented capitalism’s slow demise in the U.S. while criticizing the “woke people” he thinks are eradicating free speech.

    A Home Depot spokesperson told Fortune Marcus’ comments do not represent the company. Marcus retired from active involvement with Home Depot in 2002.

    “We will disavow any knowledge….”

    What the fuck does Bernie Marcus know? How many laws has he passed?

    • Tres Cool

      “…the reasons behind today’s unfavorable environment include the current administration and the “woke” establishment’s involvement in business.”

      Brah- if I ever need to find a lesbian or mexican willing to help me build a deck, Home Depot is the center of diversity

        There are lesbians hanging out in the parking lot of Home Depot now? Interesting.

        We know a lesbian couple and the ‘butch’ one (she’s a little on the boyish side but still quite feminine) does like to go to Home Depot.

    • Hyperion

      “How many laws has he passed?”

      How many laws have we passed since the founding that are necessary or good in any way? Seriously, how many? I’d love to be the one to take some pruning shears to our legal system.

      The headline I saw over this article today was something along the lines of: “Trump donor and Home Depot CEO says blah blah blah…”

  17. The Late P Brooks

    Marcus told the FT that he was a fan of DeSantis, and is looking forward to an “interesting” electoral contest in 2024 between the Florida governor and Trump. He didn’t say which candidate he would rather see clinching the Republican nomination, although he made his thoughts abundantly clear on Joe Biden, whom he called “the worst president in the history of this country.”

    I guess that means he won’t be spending New Year’s Eve at the White House.

    • rhywun

      He’s like your crazy MAGA uncle at Thanksgiving. Just nod and smile when he says something kooky and the adults in the room can get back to talking about social justice and trans rights.

    Attorney Clinton Lancaster told an Independence County court that Navy Joan Roberts would “benefit from carrying the Biden family name,” which he said was “now synonymous with being well educated, successful, financially acute, and politically powerful.”

        My wife uses a program called Docuphase.

        When she first started talking to me about it, I could have sworn she was saying ‘Duck Face’, that’s exactly what it sounded like to me. I’m saying ‘What the fuck is Duck Face?’.

        So now this is a joke between me and the husband of one of her co-corkers who is also Brazilian. Duck Face, lol.

      • R C Dean

        Apparently, there is some question about whether they even had a quorum, so many members skipped the session and there is (may be?) a requirement that you show in person to count toward a quorum.

        If they didn’t have a quorum, that would mean the bill didn’t actually pass. Not to worry, though. There is absolutely no recourse whatsoever, so we seem to be at a point where Congress doesn’t even have to pass a bill for it to become law.

      • Brochettaward

        Article I read stated they did not have a quorum. But both parties were on board so who is going to stop it?

        But it’s crazy that we’ve gotten to the point where a spending bill totaling in the trillions isn’t even important enough to show up to vote for.

    • rhywun

      Perfect.

      I wonder the CNN and friends hand-wave this stuff away.

  21. Brochettaward

    I see they are making a new Interview With a Vampire series that is really going to lay into the homoeroticism/sexuality.

    Did you people know that Anne Rice was offered a chance to join the FIrster’s Guild, but declined? The Firsters of the time were trying to diversify and embrace the female power movement. It was a dark time for Firsting, like for much of the world. She turned down the Firsters so she could write tawdry stories about gay vampires.

    That is the most self-depreciating story I can tell you as a Firster.

    • Mojeaux

      So she got pissy about Tom Cruise being cast as Lestat (rightfully so). She screamed the nascient internet down about it. Then one day she was suddenly happy as a clam about it. Sus.

        I’m actually surprised Cruise took a homoerotic role, since he’s spent his career vigorously fighting rumors that he’s gay.

      • Hyperion

        “I’m actually surprised Cruise took a homoerotic role”

        Useful information!

        *tells wife I told you he’s gay!*

      • Brochettaward

        Cruise is a Firster. Sex with and for a Firster is very different from that of seconders. Everything from the intent to the emotions to the anatomy.

        This is all too much to explain to you.

        You got me to read up on that. She apparently wanted either David Cronenberg or Ridley Scott to direct?

        Brochettaward, do you read the tabloids? Inquiring minds want to know.

      • Brochettaward

        I used to read AboveTopSecret when it was more conspiratorial and less just people bitching about political controversy of the day.

      • Brochettaward

        These days, you don’t have to dig that deep to be considered conspiratorial. It’s kind of boring.

      • Hyperion

        I’ve never read any of those, I used to laugh at the headlines in the grocery store line.

      And a year later, I experienced my first sexual trauma.

      I remember reading the linked story. She was going out to bars using a fake ID, and that’s how she got into the situation of her first sexual trauma. You lied about your age to get into the place, what else did you lie about?

      • Brochettaward

        There is a pretty bright, clear line between lying to get past bullshit age restrictions on getting alcohol and lying about being raped.

        My bullshit meter tends to go off when someone refers vaguely to sexual trauma. But saying that because someone lied about something that nearly everyone lies about when they are younger means she could lie about anything is incredibly misguided.

        Did you ever drink alcohol when you were 18, DEG? How did you acquire that booze?

        I bought alcohol legally when I was 18.

        I did too. In Ohio back then, 18 was the legal age. That’s also when they sold ‘3.2’ beer. They still sell it today, but they call it lite beer.

      • DEG

        Yes, I drank underage. People older than me supplied me.

        I stand by what I said.

    Anyone ever put a capsule under your tongue to dissolve it, I mean for sublingual absorption? Whoa, fucking weird… what the fuck is in those capsules? Yech!

    • Mojeaux

      I have crushed a Jet Alert and dissolved it in water for better/quicker absorption. OMG the bitterness. 🤢

      Tablets, but not capsules.

      • Hyperion

        Well, yeah, that’s easy, these are capsules and it’s hard to the powder out.

    • R C Dean

      No, I can’t say I’ve ever put a random capsule under my tongue.

        You haven’t lived.

    While the stated goal is space-based power, these satellites become weapons if pointed at the wrong place. At the very minimum they could disrupt RF communications including cellular and wifi. At worst they could cook people alive in their homes. Imagine NG being asked to “assist” law enforcement using these things.

    Yep. Weapons.

    This idiot thinks this is an own.

    • DEG

      I used to go to the local Tilted Kilt back when it was open. I sometimes remember families bringing kids in there during the lunch hour. It’s not exactly the greatest of places to take a kid. The local one never had kid specific events that I remember.

      Tilted Kilt was a franchise operation, so other franchises might have been different.

        “I remember sometimes”

        I proofrad gud.

    • Rebel Scum

      That’s…not the same thing. It ain’t catered to children and they are not tryna groom children.
