I think I’ll stay in, thank you.
I was thinking of how I could end this year on a high note, but I cannot. Other than the continued support of friends and family, buying a part time home in NY, and my loyal pup, there is nothing positive I can point to in 2022. I lost my wife way too prematurely, and two months later I lost a sister. And our country has become a load of shit.
One high note I will mention, is the love and support that has been sent my way by the Glibs community. You are good people. Never change.
Links?
Moscow Idaho is a sleepy little college town that has been rocked by tragedy. I’m glad they caught this fucker and I hope he enjoys Idahos death row.
Commie Pope doesn’t have to worry about this guy looking over his shoulder anymore.
You know how many fucks I have to give? Zero.
Anybody can collect deer antlers.
I think the QUILTBAG community needs to do some self policing.
Okay, I’m out. I’m under no illusion that everything will be different when I wake up tomorrow, but at least it won’t be 2022. Peace out Glibs and pray for a better 2023.
A seconder who impersonates a Firster is to have their eyes put out. So it be told.
You would first on a post with a Green Day music link.
You said it, Spud. 2022 was rough, and it was friends and family support that got us all through it. Sometimes we are the support and sometimes we are the supportees.
Say, isn’t the ZARDOS movie set in 2023?
It would be apropos.
Sorry to hear about all the tragedy for you this year, I didn’t know any of that. Those “other thans” aren’t nothing though. Maybe not enough to hang your hat on, but something at least. 2022 certainly wasn’t a banner year for me either – here’s hoping all of us have a better 2023.
Imagine being down to your last $137 billion. What a fucking chump, amirite?
But with govt we can piss away 10x that much with no effort at all! Yay govt!
Elon should have listened to me, I’m only down 20%
Yesterday a friend told me he’d sold some investment stuff and bought bonds paying 5.5%. I told him inflation is 8% and he’ll be paying tax on his 5.5 % income.
I know he did better than I this past year but when a safe investment is costing you money we’re in an upside world.
2022 was … interesting. Lots of drama, which really started years ago and stopped abruptly on September 8. Things have been utterly boring and without drama ever since. I don’t foresee much drama for 2023, barring getting a job as a medical coder and whatever drama that brings.
Boring is good. Boring is underrated.
Brendan O’Neill put up an interesting piece on Benedict. To the extent I care about the papacy, I was never especially fond of the guy, but apparently he was right about at least some things.
He was Catholic. Something I’m not as sure about with the current Pope.

Lol. They are so damn funny, in part, because they don’t play favorites. They will make fun of anyone.
I’m guessing Sloopy has run out of clean pants by now watching Michigan get abused.
Now he’s just stuck lying there in his own wetness. And OSU hasn’t even played yet.
It ain’t over yet.
And now???
Great Sunset. Is there a football game?
I don’t hear any of Tres Cools’ ladies crooning yet
Now. Now it’s over.
Harbaugh keeps his bowl streak alive. Losing 6 in a row and counting. Uffda.
That’s half of the Big-Can’t-Count conference out, now for THE other half.
I wonder which NFL team will lure him away.
It took Harbaugh three fucking quarters to realize he needed to space things out more to run the ball.
dumb math for your consideration
tOSU Notre Dame 11
Notre Dame Clemson 21
Clemson South Carolina -1
South Carolina Georgia -41
so Georgia by 10
or if you prefer
tOSU Notre Dame 11
Notre Dame South Carolina 7
South Carolina Georgia -41
so Georgia by 23
or if you prefer
tOSU Michigan -22
Michigan TCU -6
TCU West Virginia 10
West Virginia Kansas State -17
Kansas State Alabama -25
Alabama Tennessee -3
Tennessee Georgia -14
so Georgia by 77

New Math is confusing.
How many officials were in the field? That’s how many we got beat by.
The last three years have been weird, to say the least. I’m not sure what to think about the future..
I’ll just try to continue keeping my head down, I guess.
We’ve cleared the solstice, though. Every little bit helps.
Days are getting longer! (barely)
About 31 seconds more daylight each day from now till summer solstice.
It’s not linear though, right? I think at one point they get longer by multiple minutes each day?
Ellipses man, how do they fucking work?
Yeah, wow. Sorry. I guess I spend my brain power of things that actually mater in my life (usually).
Which apparently doesn’t include spelling.
That wasn’t a dig at you, more a riff on magnets. Have a drink on me!
They’re just three dots.
Ah yeah, I guess you’re correct. It can go up to minutes more per day.
At one point in each year we are gaining/losing an hour of daylight every ten days.
Still though, it’s nice to start gaining some of our lost daylight back. I count Jan 15th as the 1/2 way point of winter.
/Lib Arts calculation, no science
Works for me.
On topic repost:
I just made this thing.
If you had a good 2022, here’s hoping things get even better for you in 2023. 🍻
If you had a shit 2022, you weren’t alone. Chin up. Let’s make 2023 our bitch. 🍆💦🍻
I like that
Hey, that’s neat!
My dad got into weld art before he died. He wasn’t the one doing the welding. He’d draw up the plans and choose the metal and take it a welder. My brother actually did take welding classes. I don’t know what he actually made or if it was just so he could do work on his hobby farm.
What kind of stuff did your dad design? Do you have any of it?
I have no pictures, and my mom wasn’t a fan. When she sold the house after he died, the art stayed with the house, but likely not for long. Just abstract stuff, which was funny because he was constantly bagging on abstract art. I guess it was okay when he was making it.
Lol. Steel Panther is proud of you.
And I like the way you think.
Very nice. I’m impressed.
Musk, 51, has seen his wealth plummet to $137 billion after Tesla shares tumbled in recent weeks, including an 11% drop on Tuesday, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. His fortune peaked at $340 billion on Nov. 4, 2021, and he remained the world’s richest person until he was overtaken this month by Bernard Arnault, the French tycoon behind luxury-goods powerhouse LVMH.
Think of all the taxes he got out of paying by losing that money.
That’s why we need a wealth tax.
With all due respect to Spud, I’ll add another song appropriate to the occasion.
We still have that doddering dunce in the White House. Everyone knows that someone is pulling his strings but no one seems willing to say who that is.
I used to think that if we ever learned who was truly in charge that we’d recognize the names. But more and more I wonder if it’s more likely some semi-anonymous monsters, most of which nobody but the elites have ever heard of.
That’s Dr. Who It Is to you.
2023 will be very different for me, HH was nice but the rest of 22 kinda sucked.
Peace out and
Tall Cans!
Fuck 2022. I felt similar about 2020.
2020 was the worst year of my life so it’s only been getting “better” since then.
Agreed,2020 was horrible,
Cheers!

2021 was the bad year for me

For personal reasons that I’ll likely never get drunk enough to discuss here, 1996 and 2013 were absolute hell on Earth for me. Even in spite of that, I try to find reasons to be happy and grateful.
Not trying to be a Pollyanna, but 2022 was great and 2023 will be even better!
From your lips to G-d’s ears.
Amen.
You know who else said Fuck 2020?!?

It’s not linear though, right? I think at one point they get longer by multiple minutes each day?
Yeah, I think it’s a curve, and not a straight line.
*rate of change in daylight hours
Sinusoidal.
Slowest changes at the solstices. Fastest changes at the equinoxes.
What are the above for those meads you gave me Sir?
Asking for a friend😏
Abv.
ABV? Wine strength. 12% ABV or so.
I’d never given it much thought but that makes sense. The wife and I were talking a few nights back about how it’s nice that daylight will be increasing and I looked it up and it was 31 seconds morel light. I knew the difference would obviously change at latitudes but didn’t consider the movement from equinox to solstice.
Well 2022 was awful, not to confident about ’23.
Very glad to share the shitshow with all of you.

You got a pardon, but you still get your punishment.
Maybe I’m missing something but from my reading it doesn’t seem that QUILTBAG had anything to do with the crime despite the desperate attempts by the author to shoehorn it in a dozen times.
I think his point was that early reports were calling it an anti-gay hate crime, and it turns out the perp is gay, or at least bi.
Exactly. Even under the current rules two lesbians being murdered by a gay man doesn’t constitute a hate crime.
There is a shit-ton of personality disorders and mental illness out there. Make of that what you will.

That’s Dr. Baby to you, Ted.
A link that was merely disappointing. That’s a step in the right direction.
I wonder if there is a decent NYE broadcast…?
I usually turn over to Seacrest at some point just for the cringe, but ugh.
Short answer, no.
I probably posted this last year, but it’s still relevant.
Yup. Very good link Ted. Everyone should see that.
All of my music links are good.
When you lie like that, everyone will realize it’s a trap.
The music is coming from inside the house!
You wouldn’t know good music, since they don’t have any in North Dakota.
We import only the tastiest riffs and the sickest beats.

Elon Musk Becomes First Person Ever To Lose $200 Billion

Especially if he runs for office as a Republican.
Considering that all the tek stocks fell flat lately, it stands to reason that the person worth the most on paper would fall the farthest on paper

Agreed.
Occam’s Razor doesn’t require nefarious multi-decade WEF-driven efforts to purposely depopulate the planet; all it requires is the oldest, tritest, most banal motive of all: money. Big Pharma and the captured Regulatory State saw an opportunity to make zillions by forcing people to take a something that is shielded from liability. This isn’t to say that these things aren’t happening; I’m sure they are, I just don’t think it was intentional. They rushed an experimental medicine out the door that happens to cause horrific side-effects, but acknowledging those side-effects would end their cash cow so better to deny, gaslight and accuse any dissenting voice of being a conspiracy nut. It’s not like they want all these people to die, it’s just that they care more about the money.
On the other hand… They – Gates in particular – sure did talk a lot about reducing the population before going all in on a vaccine that’s killing people.

There are disagreements on how it is spelled, but the fact remains that eating it will cure cancer, diabetes, impotency and flat feet.
I’m just amused that that makes four different spellings I’ve seen for the stuff now.

This was in question?
A U.S. appeals court on Thursday revived a Washington middle school teacher’s claim that a principal violated his free-speech rights by threatening discipline if he continued wearing a “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) hat to training sessions.
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said there was no evidence that the teacher, Eric Dodge, had caused any actual disruption by bringing the hat supporting former President Donald Trump to teacher-only trainings at his Vancouver, Washington, school.
The red baseball cap with white lettering became a ubiquitous and divisive symbol of Trump’s 2016 campaign and his presidency. Dodge says the principal, Caroline Garrett, called him a racist and homophobe and told him he would need a union representative if he wore the hat to school again.
The 9th Circuit, reversing a federal judge, said wearing the hat was speech protected by the U.S. Constitution and evidence that some faculty members were offended was not enough to override Dodge’s free-speech rights.
Only because you media cuntes lie about the symbol.
The 9th, no less. Not that anyone on the left will learn from this.
It is a good sign that the country hasn’t gone full authoritarian yet. It is troubling that a federal judge wants otherwise.
What fucking assholes the whole way around. Fire everyone involved.
Meh, the teacher had balls to wear the cap, and at this point, fuck all libtards.
Yeah, to work as a teacher. As unprofessional as the rest of public sector parasites in the story. Fuck him too.
A new version of omicron has taken hold in the U.S., according to the most recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The subvariant of omicron, named XBB.1.5, has raised concerns about another potential wave of Covid cases following the busy holiday travel season.
The CDC projected Friday that about 40% of confirmed U.S. Covid cases are caused by the XBB.1.5 strain, up from 20% a week ago. In the Northeast, about 75% of confirmed cases are reported to be XBB.1.5.
Oh, that’s nice. Now go fuck yourself.
I literally don’t care. There is always going to be a new variant. Live with it.
Last year, I offered the Glibs a chance to see the spectacular. A death-defying stunt never before done in the history of Firsting. I was going to First in the New Years. Certain Glibs, who shall remain nameless, made me rescind my offer with their catty bitchiness.
I may pull this stunt tonight even though I still need a great deal of strength to wage my war against the anti-Bro.
If we join our Firsting powers, it will be magnificent.

You are only fortunate that we currently live under seconder law, but a thinning of the heard – a great re-numbering – is coming. And then Firster law will once again rule. The punishment will be severe.

“Then, on the very first day, the first thing we’re going to do is repeal the 87,000 IRS agents,” McCarthy continued. “Another reason why the Democrats are mad at me, I think – government should be here to help you, not to go after you, then we’re going to secure our border. You’ve got to secure this border, the millions of people coming across, the fentanyl that’s killing our children. We need to work on our economy. That means making us energy-independent. We need to hold this government accountable. Where’s the origin of COVID began? Find out what this Biden family had done in the process. Make sure the FBI is not going after Americans but actually going after crime. We’ve got so much work behind us, and we need to start on the very first day.”

Thanks, Grossy. Happy new year to you, too. I hope 2023 pleasantly surprises you.

Last year on NYE, I edited a medical report. Somewhere that shall not be named, some poor 25yo John Doe bastard with likely way too much to drink, set off fireworks somewhere in the vicitinity of his crotch. He degloved his penis and otherwise destroyed his pelvis and bodily regions farther north and south. He died a couple of days later.
*raises glass of water to that poor unknown inebriated bastard*
He died as he lived – a Firster.
Floridaman does not disappoint.
Great balls o’ fire! When he told his buddies he could shoot a Roman candle out of his ass, he really should’ve paid attention before he, uhh… slipped and fell on it.

Many years ago when I was riding a school bus, the bus driver stopped – lights flashing — to let some students off on a city street. The door opened and a student got ready to step out into the street. Suddenly, a car zoomed by the bus on the right. Right past the open door with a student ready to step out.
We got the license plate and the driver was caught. Some of the other students got to testify in his trial. I think the driver went to jail.
Who is this guy?
His name is Haywood Jablome.

Big take-away from tonight: I should drink more calvados.
Right on slum, happy entry to 23. Calvados is indeed a fantastic drink. A Dutch buddy got me into it when I lived there and I used to sit at a beautiful old bar with massive windows overlooking the Tropical Museum and enjoy a glass. It’s hard to find outside of BevMo and speciality liquor stores, but it really is some tasty stuff.
Calvados rules!
I bring mine back from a couple of producers in Normandy, ‘cause the stuff available in Alberta is sludge.
It was one of these:
https://www.calvados-drouin.com/en/products/2/calvados
Not sure which; one of the cheaper ones, no doubt.
Can’t get that here, either.
Grumble.
Also, I have nothing to compare it to but a local place makes pommeau, and it is like crack.

Somebody is going to need to check on Sloopy. The OSU-Georgia game is going down to the wire. OSU down by a point with very little remaining.
Story of the games to me – both top ranked teams came in looking to do what they do, and struggled. Georgia survived with a lot of injury luck helping out.
Also, any NFL owner who hires Harbaugh is just asking for heartbreak.
People are doing fireworks around these parts. The cats are freaking out. Pussies…
Don’t be doggin’ on them.
The fog has lifted just in time to view them here. A harbinger for a better year.
This First was inserted into the Firstiverse at 12:00.0000001 First Timezone. It is the most precise First in the history of Firstkind. You have all been witness to history.
Meanwhile I’m watching Hat Gaming.

Y’all suck. Happy New years.
I didn’t mean it. I was drunk.
Y’all are great. Well…most of you.

Well, we made it to another year in God’s favorite time zone. Happy New Years, my fellow freedom loving autists!
Uhhhh…you’re an hour ahead, Reb. God’s favorite time zone is the Glib’s server time zone. Still shitty 2022 here.
You have 50 minutes to look forward to a possibly shittier 2023.
Your puny time zone trembles at the majesty of ours.
Eastern time is Operation Human Shield for Central.
Eastern is crossing the Delaware while Central sleeps.
Well, the B1G kept it closer than I thought they would’ve, but they once again showed they don’t belong. Maybe ‘Bama had a good argument for getting into the CFP.
NIL and the transfer portal is really going to bugger up the college game, though. Just wait until some Silicon Valley type who can’t buy a Premier League team decides to pay every 5-star in the country a zillion dollars to play for Stanford.
Alabama coeds are way more attractive than the ones at Stanford. Things will be fine.
Cyberpunk 2077 was the worst game of the decade. Without a doubt. It can’t be helped. Horseshit gameplay, lazy writing, just awful all around.

I get the disappointment, it’s real. It’s worthy. You should be pissed about how awful this game is. THEY CHARGED FULL FREIGHT FOR THIS STUPID GODDAMN GAME
Thats quite the claim.
I love the story. I want more of the story. I’m obsessed with the story.
Look I like to eat dog shit and sometimes smell dirty clams. But I in no terms will agree with you

DON’T YOU KNOW HOW DIVERSE IT WILL BE?
But why?
I’m staying at The Cloister right now. Given its location and the timing of today’s Peach Bowl, I wasn’t sure which was louder — the hollering and cheering from the ballroom and lobby beneath our room as OSU’s kicker duck-hooked his kick, or the fireworks that started at the stroke of midnight just a few seconds later.
I’d think about going downstairs and getting a few smooches from drunk UGA almunae when their husbands or dads weren’t looking, but I think I’ll have a cigar on my balcony instead.
Mrs Shpip approves of your choices, no doubt . Tempting, tho…
The cigar is the far safer choice.
On the other hand, one of the bartenders turned her on to Manhattans (her tipple of choice) made with High West A Midwinter Night’s Dram. I haven’t the heart to tell her that the goddamn things are $35 a pop. Maybe the sweet embrace of being shot by a jealous husband will spare me the credit card bill in a few weeks.
I kicked myself for not buying a bottle of that when I had the chance.
Yow, $35 Manhattans are a bit much, even for me.
Is that High West that good? I dig their Double Rye.
Their Rendezvous Rye is very good. I’ve read very good things about the Midwinter’s Night Dram.
Oh, yeah, Rendezvousis good. Campfire is a little weird, but good too.
Darnedest thing is that High West is MGP whiskey, but what they do with it after it arrives in Utah is astonishing.
All the High West is good, but the Midwinter Night has become one of those Holy Grail whiskeys, tightly allocated with a price to match.
I see there is a groomer fund. Thanks, Ryan Seacrest.

Firster’s have been operating in 2023 for almost a hour and a half.
Word.
Now I know what Tamir Rice felt like. But for football.
Too soon
I’m starting to think that the biggest difference between the 70s and the 20s is that both nurses and bartenders dress like slobs now.
Huh. So this is 2023.
Straffinrun-san warned you.
Just like the old boss!

Happy New Year and Sabbath TALL CANS!
Morning, Tres! First footing!
Mornin peeps.
2023!
Good morning, homey, TO’G, Sean, and ‘bodru! Happy New Year! 😃🥳🎉
I worked all night, missed the OSU game, and Im on beer #2.
I think Im already in a better mood for 2023 having missed that game.
I will say they did better than I expected, and I hate when a big game comes down to asking the poor kicker to do the nigh-unto-impossible. 🙁
GT, we need your soothing attentiveness in alarm-clock fashion, like the Stephen Fry sesquipedalian a.c. “Ahem. Good morning, sir/madam. The world awaits your contributions with bated breath. Thank you, s/m.”
Ah, then I shall do my utmost (as opposed to my more customary utleast) to oblige!
She’s getting Tranqulity Base ready for the 2023 season.

“Islamic extremist”. I thought that phrase was verboten.
Oh, I’m sure they meant “white supremacist.”
Maybe he’ll get the Zimmerman treatment in the media.
“white-sunni”
Civilian-involved stabbing.
The civilian’s machete entered the police officer’s skin.
Oh fuck me, this year is dragging on. Is it 2024 yet?
Pace yerself.
I’ve already failed my resolutions for 2023, let’s just get this over with so I can try again.
And Ive already stolen and shared Shpip’s joke from above
Keto brownies and ice cream topped with heavy whipped cream for breakfast. 👍

Morning!
Dog is very sleepy this morning. I’m assuming there were enough noises to keep her awake, but not enough of a threat to bark at.
Unlike that guy outside last night shouting woo! That was definitely bark-worthy.
Think of it this way: she won’t be putting so many demands on your attention.

Too bad it wasnt a Woo Girl
Dude.
My first thought was that you should have had foreknowledge that Tres is into plus-sized women.
