For obvious reasons, my out-of-town friends like to come here in October; the fall foliage is spectacular, the wine grapes are all coming in, and the deer hunters are busy shooting one another. Meantime, I’m trying to finish an overdue for-pay article, prepare lesson plans, and perform my Sunday religious ritual (which involves Ravens and Steelers). But even with all that, I’m going to try to bring some half decent Links to the party.
Leaves drop and so do birthdays, including a guy who had strong principles; a guy who may have been a G-type; a guy who didn’t invent a cool guitar; best royal name EVER; a guy who didn’t cry; Joe Biden’s spirit animal; a guy in competition for the most overrated sci fi writer in history; a guy who refined grift to a previously unexplored level; a guy with the reputation of being the biggest asshole in show biz, which is quite a feat; a woman who is truly as ugly on the inside as she is on the outside; Ohio’s answer to Robert Reich; a woman most famous for her tighty whiteys; and proof that the best actors are remarkably shallow people.

Yep. This is going to go very poorly.
This guy is way too stupid not to be a CIA plant.
Just wait until the rats start testing positive for the plague!
The Old Guy is incredibly impressed with how Les Claypool can make an extended one chord song interesting. And I love that they’re playing at the Madonna Inn.
including a guy who had strong principles;
Happy birthday Werner Heisenberg?
a guy who may have been a G-type;
Happy birthday Ernst Gräfenberg!
a guy who didn’t invent a cool guitar;
Happy birthday Freddy Fender!
a guy who didn’t cry;
Happy birthday Johnnie Ray!
Sure you didnt mean Jimmy Ray?
I thought he could call him Ray….
No; I meant Johnnie Ray.
Although I could have come up with the more interetstingly-named Lol Creme.
I think you mean Happy Birthday Matjaž Kosi
OFFS. How about fretting over why a crappy Pumpkin Spice latte at Starbucks costs seven fucking dollars?
Make your own coffee at home.
Looks like that was recorded in a small venue, understandably.

Silly, he studied chemhistory.
a guy in competition for the most overrated sci fi writer in history – you take that back
Yeah, Dune may be a little overrated but FH put out a ton of other excellent novels and short stories.
The White Plague isn’t even sci-fi anymore (given it was about genetic engineering in a garage lab).
I thought I’d fulfilled my annual pumpkin spice obligation Friday with an Iced capp from Timmy’s, but now I want to have as much as I can choke down to celebrate its violent heritage. But no Starbucks if I can help it.
coffee should only have coffee beans and water as ingredients. nothing else.

100 Food Hacks I Learned In Restaurants
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_erG7HSK0A
Greetings, fellow top secret clearance holders!
I see Ted S hit the ground running this morning.
I turned off the news on the teevee. Too depressing. I switched the channel….oh yeah, halloween season. I get Night of the Living Dead; in other words the same shit I switched off of. The solution? I came here. *facepalm* I just cant win.
1. Yet another huge problem with a simple, obvious solution that no one has the spine to implement.
2. I can just repeat #1. I see that the UN and most other political entities are telling the jews to exercise restraint. Is killing every living thing inside the Gaza Strip and turning the place to rubble considered restraint?
3. I got nuthin’. The endless bumble-fucking of our security apparatus.
4. New, most dangerouser than ever cootie bug. Once again it is a toss up as to which is worse, the bug or the vaccine. I think we are cynical enough around here to know the answer to that.
5. Who? Oh, that guy. Best NYC mayor in recent history….my God, what does that say.
6. WaPo whining about western civilization. We should just re-institute a culture of savagery in the west. Stone Age technology and cannibalism for the win.
7. Here come all of the pathogens and parasites the west conquered 100’s of years ago, swarming back. Thanks lefties. Jesus, they are hardly worth the bullets it would take to fix this problem.
I’ve been up since 6:00. And these are real firsts.
All of them?
Re: 6 and 7 — they certainly seem to be working on it. If Western Civ falls and China regresses to its usual navel gazing while the rest of the world slides into depravity and barbarism (because I don’t expect the current international economy would survive if the West slides into chaos and all), hopefully whatever civilization rebuilds itself from the Dark Ages will at least take us as a lesson. Allow what Dr. Peterson would call the forces of Chaos some room — you need the impetus for revolution to force positive change and growth… but don’t let the assholes get out of hand or you get this level of stupid deconstruction.
Bleah.
I’m not even sure if I should watch the Qatar Grand Prix today (or if I should divest from F1 entirely, frankly). Qatar came out with a stupid Hamas friendly statement yesterday, the Saudis are certainly big backers of F1, etc… doesn’t feel right to support these assholes a micron more than we have to in this world — engagement sure doesn’t seem to be working. (My vote would be get back to energy independence and let them have their culture and their life far, far away and stop having to care…)
Who? Oh, that guy. Best NYC mayor in recent history….my God, what does that say.
Heh. Thanks for reminding me of this article which makes a compelling case for Christie as NJ’s best governor in the past 50 years or so. Written before our current knucklehead took office, still works.

The study was posted online last week. It has not been reviewed for publication in a scientific journal. But several experts said it was well done, and its results were consistent with those from other research.
Ahhh… science by press release.
It is a psychologist telling us how effective a vaccine that isn’t a vaccine is. Not expecting review anytime soon.

On the ex-Army guy reaching out to the Chicomms – it reads like the snakes in his head are a combo of Walter Mitty, plain-ole’ nuts, and pop-political America-hater.
But can you imagine being the Chinese staffers getting such stupid out-in-the-open “hey I want to turn over secret stuff” emails? They’d have to be “YGBSM. This is too stupid to be real. Surely somebody over in the next department is pranking me.”
Srsly though, how does somebody like that fund his lifestyle of flying in and out, living in foreign countries, etc.? That’s what I always wonder.
If he had blamed Trump and MAGA, imagine the heads (little and big) exploding.
I’m leaning heavily on “plain-ole’ nuts”…
Fair enough, but you thought China would be way better?

Budget plans are set years in advance, at least in DoD, so I presume others tend to the same.
I had to spend it! It was in my budget!
Spend it or lose it.
Oh, NOW they do budgets.
Honestly, the continuing resolution shit is bad because it never reallocates spending, the govt is locked in on some old budget. Not that any real intelligent effort goes into creating any budget.
Depends. We have ridiculous terms like 10 year money or 2 year money usually slated for projects.
Sad thing is I can’t get a locking cabinet without pulling teeth where I am at now.
Never could wrap my head around FedGov’s color of money.

Why anyone wants a huge dog like that as a pet in their house is beyond me.
Dinosaur turds and possibly fatal injuries after some cross-species miscommunication.
I’ll keep my indoor dogs below 60 pounds, thanks.
Yeah, he appears to be a big old friendly fella and probably is but he can do a lot of damage.
The nursing home my grandmother was in had these dogs. Very gentle an the old folks could just reach out and pet them while sitting upright in their wheelchairs.
I love all dogs, but certain breeds require more than most people who buy them can handle. I’ll still take the Canario and most mastiffs over most pits, though.
If you want a giant dog, I think Newfies are hard to beat.
100% agree.
Newsom testing just how much he can fuck his fellow Democrats?

He’s fucking with us.
That he has any political career whatsoever after Adam freaking Carolla picked him apart in an interview says a lot about California.
It says nothing about Cali, and everything about the modern Democrat party.
Cream of the crop. How does one choose from such a fine slate?
Damn. Those are some incredible qualifications.
All any dem candidates to do is sit there and vote the party line. No intelligence required. Thinking is something those icky independents do.
“And she’s dark, claims to have a vagina, and is one of them queers. Most qualified ever!” he added.
And then he thumbed his nose at the homeless encampments and said “let them eat cake” on his way to the French Laundry.
He’s fucking with the whole world.
It was divine providence.
Dude has zero say in his state or party anymore. The Dem borg said “this is the person” and he said “how soon?”
Hilarious that his pick is not even resident of California. Close to 40 million people here and he has to get someone who lives in Maryland that ticks all the diversity boxes. And now he backtracks on her running for the seat after the appointment term end, even funnier. Her main competition is Schiff, Porter and Barbara Lee so it doesn’t even matter who wins, although I guess if pressed Schiff is the most despicable of that sorry lot. Says something that the Elephants are not going to even try to mount a campaign for the seat. As goes California…
It does matter for the factions inside the Democrat Party.
“Gun manufacturing giant Smith & Wesson hosted a grand opening of its $125 million new Tennessee headquarters after moving from its longtime home in Massachusetts.
The company built a new 650,000-square feet office in Maryville as part of a relocation plan announced in 2021.
The gunmaker had been located in Springfield, Massachusetts, since the mid-19th century, but hoped to move to a more gun-friendly state.
‘From where I stand, the next 170 years of Smith & Wesson are looking pretty good. It is something special here in Tennessee,’ President and CEO Mark Smith said at Saturday’s grand opening.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12606909/Smith-Wesson-Tennessee-Headquarters-Massachusetts.html
That’s awesome. Although I do feel bad for the folks in Mass. who lost their jobs. I hope as many as possible move with the company.
Me too. That kind of experience is valuable. I am sure most did. Tennessee is hella cooler than Massachusetts.
I don’t. They elected gun control shitheads for nearly a century.
Yes. I’m sure the place was full of gun control nuts.
Anywhere outside a 20 mile radius of the S&W factory was most assuredly leaning toward gun control.
And now Tennessee is having Smurf refugees flood Nashville. Won’t take long for the smurf color tones to spread outward there as well.
I’m thinking people who work for a gun manufacturer, who move to Tennessee to keep their jobs, may not be your standard issue Massholes.
Yeah, when I said “the place” I meant S&W.
The stink of desperation is palpable.

Heartwood.RealEstate // On 49-acres at the end of a road and adjacent to national forest, Heartwood is one of the most private properties in one of the most unique neighborhoods in Jackson Hole, Crescent H Ranch. Crescent H opened as a dude ranch in 1927; today it is a sanctuary for its homeowners and wildlife. Heartwood has a move-in ready 8,077-square-foot Craftsman-style estate home, 2,167sf guest house, and the potential to build a third home up to 10,000sf. Hike or cross-country ski on the ranch’s own trail system; fish out the back door in a spring-fed pond or explore 7 miles of blue ribbon fly-fishing on spring creeks that Crescent H homeowners have exclusive access to. As remote as Heartwood feels, the community of Wilson is only a 10 minute drive away.

Beautiful, and I don’t even like craftsman style.
Anyway, so the ranch is “Crescent H.” For some reason I don’t know, part of my elementary “general knowledge” education was learning how to read ranch symbols.
I love craftsman but yikes. It will probably have to wait until I make my first billion.
Money printer go brrr?
I like Craftsman style, but that doesn’t really do anything for me. Some nice details, but once you get into the bones, it looks cookie cutter.

Moreno says focusing on the way people want to live is key to successfully introducing a 15-minute city approach to an area. For example, besides reducing planet-heating emissions, there are lots of “co-benefits” for people who live in 15-minute cities, he says. Infrastructure that prioritizes walking, biking and public transit means less noise from cars and more safety for pedestrians and bikers. Less air pollution from cars and daily routines with more walking and biking promote health. More parks and urban trees can pull carbon dioxide from the air, provide shade, and cool down neighborhoods — all increasingly important as the planet warms.
And redesigning cities where homes are mixed in with businesses can drive more foot traffic to those businesses, Moreno says. “That is why our concept is liked by many mayors,” Moreno says. “We are proposing climate solutions that generate more economic activity.”
Moreno is agnostic as to whether people travel by foot, bike or public transit. And he has a loose definition for 15 minutes. “It can be 10 or 18,” Moreno says. “What is important is the proximity to accessing services.”
Just as long as we get rid of those icky cars. Now about those bums…
I an 100% in favor of places like that being available for the people who want to live there. But that’s not the goal.
Oh fuck off
Just put everyone in camps already, asshole.
🙄 They’re really laying it on thick with the climate nonsense.
Bullshit.
Yeah, this is all fine by choice. Though really only suitable for singles or DINKs i.e. people who don’t necessarily need a car.
I have yet to see one of these types with rheumatoid arthritis, or any of the other various auto-immune diseases. They can stick that walking/biking right up their ass.
Or other similar related problems

These people crack me up. They don’t care at all how people want to live, only how they want people to live.
Hey, I’d love to have my rifle range a fifteen minute walk from home…
I thought a 15 minute city refers to a Blue- controlled city where you couldn’t stand to be for more than 15 minutes.

I still haven’t figured out the larger point of this. Maybe just a good old-fashioned Jew-killing, like Allah intended, and nothing more.
Too many other things in play for this to just be about Hamas revenge fantasies.
Oil prices being first and foremost among those and the Saudi play for a US/Israel/KSA defense pact being second. The Iranians have their interests, etc…

Paris’ experience with 15-minute cities reached Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb in March 2020. Back then, in the early days of the pandemic, Bibb was a banker, stuck at home at his apartment in downtown Cleveland. He was poking around online when he found an article about the mayor of Paris and the 15-minute cities she was promoting.
“I read up on it. I’m like, ‘Oh, the dots are connecting for me now,'” Bibb says. He thought about when he went to college in Washington, D.C., and would catch a bus to the grocery store. He thought about studying abroad in London, when he would walk to classes and restaurants, or take a bus to the barbershop. And he thought about growing up in Cleveland and his old neighborhood, with many amenities within a 15-minute walk.
“It really showed me that when you think about urban planning,” Bibb says, “a 15-minute city gives you an amazing baseline to prioritize people.”
——-
Cleveland was once the fifth-largest American city. Now it is around the 54th, shrunk in the past 70-plus years by white flight and a loss of manufacturing jobs. Today, Bibb sees a way back to more density. “We have to reimagine our infrastructure,” he says, “to make sure that regardless of where you live in Cleveland, you have a 15-minute city with high-quality amenities.”
But Bibb and other politicians are encountering big obstacles in their pursuit of higher-density cities where residents are less reliant on cars.
Let’s make Cleveland the Paris of the Rust Belt. Get with the program, you hicks.
So many red flags as to why that retard should have been hanged from the nearest lamppost than been elected dog catcher.

Cleansing fire is coming.
Before I hit the “play” button, I thought that was John Cleese.
Yet the conspiracy theory that 15-minute cities are a way for the global elite to contain people in open-air prisons took off in the past year, says Jennie King, head of climate research and policy at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue in London, a nonprofit that studies extremism.
“Fifteen-minute cities is the latest victim in a broader trend,” King says. “The unifying theme of a lot of these attacks and conspiracies is that climate change is being used as a pretext to strip people of their civil liberties.”
Nobody is coming for your freedoms.
It’s not happening but it’d be good if it was/is. Enjoy your 15 minute city folks.

“Russell Brand’s father, 80, posts conspiracy theory-laden video which appears to attack the women accusing his son of rape and sexual assault”
Stupid headline…
“Ron Brand posted the video of Youtuber Lennie Moreno to his Facebook page just weeks after his son faced allegations.
In the clip, Moreno says the ‘rape charge pattern on people speaking against the system is getting pretty clear by now’ and compares the Brand allegations to those of Donald Trump, Andrew Tate, Julian Assange and Tupac.
In what appears to be an attack on the women accusing Brand, he says: ‘As soon as you get too big and start speaking some sense to your following, some blackmailed woman or pissed off ex-date is going to come out of the woodwork by orders of “the matrix” and synchronise all the media outlets to break the news at the same exact time.’
During the vile rant shared by Ron, Moreno also claims that if you have ‘power and swag and options you never need to rape anybody’.”

The petition has received more than 10,000 signatures.
The fact that tourism is resuming so soon around the outskirts of a town made unrecognizable by the wildfires has reignited an ongoing debate about Hawaii’s reliance on tourism.
“There is just not a lot of activities like there usually is for these people to do, so a lot of people are wondering, why do they want to come here?” said Jordan Ruidas, a community organizer and resident.
Tourism is the No. 1 driver of that state’s economy, according to Hawaii Tourism Authority, and businesses across the island have been impacted by the lack of visitors since the Aug. 8 wildfires.
But some residents link tourism and its historical links to colonialism with many of the issues plaguing the Islands, including lack of access to clean water, the housing crisis, and pollution and destruction of Hawaiian lands.
I’m sure the “Hawaii for Hawaiians!” advocate community would be happy to see a Tesla battery factory on Maui, or a commercial feed lot and slaughterhouse. Or maybe a Goldman Sachs Asian Markets office.
No, they want massive government subsidies while lounging around all day on Aloha time.
I still haven’t heard how many dead kids there are.
Weird, huh?

Columbus Police officers charged Shires, of Mount Sterling, Ohio, with unlawful sexual conduct with a minor, per ABC6.”

Hawaii didn’t always rely on tourism as its main source of income.
According to research from the University of Hawaii, Hawaiian society was self-sustaining and run in cooperative, extended ohana — or family — that each manned subdivisions of land.
Native Hawaiians were recorded to have been living “well above subsistence levels, with extensive time available for cultural activities, sports, and games” before their long period of isolation from outsiders came to an end, the University of Hawaii found.
Contact with the outside world in the 1770s changed Hawaii drastically. Deaths caused a massive wave of fatalities, leading to a 90% decline in the Native Hawaiian population, according to research from the National Academy of Medicine.
Those fat happy Hawaiians had it made. They just lolled around on the beach looking at their iphones all day. Captain Cook fucked it all up.
