“For the rest of the holiday season, the iconic department store will display one of the world’s priciest electric cars – a Lucid Air Sapphire which accelerates to 60 mph in less than 2 seconds and is outfitted with massage seats and 21 speakers.”
And it can travel 75 miles before the battery runs out?
“We are really trying to pivot away from being a store to buy goods,” he said. “We want to be at the crossroads of art and fashion.”
Is there any money in that?
No.
“It’s a great way to funnel money to our political supporters though.”
That would be at least something.
My guess is that it is more about a bunch of midlevel and junior marketing “whizzes” wanting to have more street cred with the other drones in the marketing world. Writing ads for a place that does something as mundane as selling stuff is boring and lame. No, you want to quit focusing on selling stuff and work more on your “brand”. Who cares if you sell less stuff? Your brand will be LIT!
And when you go drinking with the other dumb marketeers, they will be so jelly.

I saw some article touting an electric car charging station in California. Go ahead, guess where the electricity for it comes from.
That’s right: a bunch of big diesel generators hidden behind some bushes. Scratch that, the generators are hidden under camo netting like fucking Afrikakorps
panzers.
***
The Harris Ranch Tesla Supercharger station is an impressive beast. With 98 charging bays, the facility in Coalinga, California, is the largest charging station in the world. But to provide that kind of power takes something solar can’t provide — diesel generators.

Harris Ranch? I would have thought methane would be powering everything for a least a 20 mile radius.

“Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt was among those who criticized Musk for unbanning Jones.
“We disagree profoundly with the decision to reinstate Alex Jones’ X account. Put plainly: you’re not restricting free speech when you keep someone from yelling “fire” in a crowded theater,” said Greenblatt.
“Similarly, @X wasn’t limiting free speech when it refused to provide Jones a platform for his slanderous lies and dangerous conspiracy theories, which spark paranoia and incite violence,” he added.”

Speaking of fairytale solutions
Inland Empire officials are touting the Brightline West bullet train project linking Southern Nevada and Southern California as a “catalyst” for the region’s economy.
Officials from the City of Rancho Cucamonga, Metrolink, Omnitrans and others gathered Monday at Cucamonga Station – the southernmost terminus for the train – to give further details about the project, which is expected to break ground in 2024.
“This will support an estimated 11,000 jobs for construction of the high-speed rail line,” Rancho Cucamonga Assistant City Manager Elisa Cox said. “This is just a piece of the much larger collaborative effort to make the Inland Empire a global connection point.”
The line will connect more than 200 miles between Las Vegas and Rancho Cucamonga and will take about two hours to travel.
Are they going to build an asylum for insane gamblers?
Rancho Cucamonga is going to give Fresno competition for all the HSR related jobs.
“Officials from the City of Rancho Cucamonga…”

Seriously, I get to drop this?
Connecting Las Vegas and Southern California by high-speed rail will create tens of thousands of good-paying union jobs, boost our Southern Nevada tourism economy, and finally help us cut down on I-15 traffic,” said Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto after Biden’s announcement.
Cortez Masto says the project could eliminate about 3 million cars from Interstate 15 every year, while creating about 35,000 “good-paying union jobs.”
White House officials say should be finished in time for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

I wonder how many shares of stock she is buying in the project? Restricted, of course; she can’t sell for 10 years which should be enough time to tell if it’s a hit or a bust.
Indeed, the idea is to lure more of the thousands of holiday visitors — who for generations have thronged outside the Fifth Avenue store to take in Saks’ legendary themed windows and holiday light display — inside the store, according to Baker.
They want to lure me inside, they should offer an Exhibition Grade official Red Ryder carbine action 200-shot Range model air rifle, with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time.
Of course, I could just wait until the pro-Hamas crew comes to protest inside the jewelry department and store security (who do not screw around) starts whack-a-moling them. If there’s anything that gets me into the holiday spirit, it’s Saks and violence.

The assassination of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh (Arabic: محمود المبحوح, Maḥmūd al-Mabḥūḥ; 14 February 1961 – 19 January 2010) took place on 19 January 2010, in a hotel room in Dubai. Al-Mabhouh—a co-founder of the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas—was wanted by the Israeli government for the kidnapping and murder of two Israeli soldiers in 1989 as well as purchasing arms from Iran for use in Gaza; these have been cited as a possible motive for the assassination.[1]
His assassination attracted international attention in part due to allegations that it was ordered by the Israeli government and carried out by Mossad agents holding fake or fraudulently obtained passports from several European countries and Australia.
The photographs of the 26 suspects and their aliases were subsequently placed on Interpol’s most-wanted list. The Dubai police found that 12 of the suspects used British passports, along with six Irish, four French, one German, and three Australian passports.[2][3][4][5][6] Interpol and the Dubai police believed that the suspects stole the identities of real people, mostly Israeli dual citizens.[2][7] Two Palestinians, believed by Hamas to be former Fatah security officers and current employees of a senior Fatah official, were taken into custody in Dubai, on suspicions that one of them provided logistical assistance to the hit team. Despite Hamas’s claim, Dubai would not comment on the incident or identify the two Palestinian suspects.
According to initial reports, Al-Mabhouh was drugged,[8] then electrocuted and suffocated.[4] Lt. Gen. Dhahi Khalfan Tamim of the Dubai Police Force said the suspects tracked Al-Mabhouh to Dubai from Damascus, Syria. They arrived from different European destinations and stayed at different hotels, presumably to avoid being detected and, with the exception of three of its members suspected of “helping to facilitate” who had left on a ferry for Iran several months before the assassination, departed after the assassination to different countries.[9][4] Dubai’s police chief said that he was “99% certain” that the assassination was the work of Israel’s Mossad. On 1 March 2010, he stated that he was “sure” that all of the suspects are hiding in Israel.[

Swiss cheese is tasty yet similar to plastic in texture. There. I said it.
The grocery store stuff sure is.
I despise most cheeses — Blue and Swiss in particular. Probably anything “strong” or sharp at a guess… just not my thing.
I have never had a ‘sharp’ or ‘strong’ swiss cheese. Every one I’ve found is very mellow.
Blue “Cheese” is just contaminated, and shouldn’t be eaten.
But I love cheeses that are not contaminated with mold, insects, or other inappropriate materials.
*adds more seasoning
Goat cheese is great in all its forms.
A couple places around here have a sharp Swiss cheese. While good, I haven’t really found it worth the extra money when there are better options at those locations.
The best cheese I ever had smelled like a rotting possom stuffed inside Dennis Rodman’s dirty gym sock. It was like the opposite of pipe tobacco: Smelled terrible but tasted great.
I presume it was fermented from the finest stinky wizzleteats for you.
I’m not even sure what it was, I was drunk at a party thrown by a friend of a friend over a decade ago and she busted it out. It stunk up the whole room once they cut through the rind but it was crazy good.
Sounds like durian, another exotic food I’d like to try.
****
The durian (/ˈdʊəriən/, /ˈdjʊəriən/)[2] is the edible fruit of several tree species belonging to the genus Durio. There are 30 recognized Durio species, at least nine of which produce edible fruit.[3][4] Durio zibethinus, native to Borneo and Sumatra, is the only species available on the international market. It has over 300 named varieties in Thailand and 100 in Malaysia as of 1987.[3] Other species are sold in their local regions.[3]
Named in some regions as the “king of fruits”,[4][5] the durian is distinctive for its large size, strong odour, and thorn-covered rind. The fruit can grow as large as 30 cm (12 in) long and 15 cm (5.9 in) in diameter, and it typically weighs 1 to 3 kg (2.2 to 6.6 lb). Its shape ranges from oblong to round, the colour of its husk from green to brown, and its flesh from pale yellow to red, depending on the species.
Some people regard the durian as having a pleasantly sweet fragrance, whereas others find the aroma overpowering and unpleasant. The smell evokes reactions ranging from deep appreciation to intense disgust. The persistence of its odour, which may linger for several days, has led certain hotels and public transportation services in Southeast Asia to ban the fruit. The 19th-century British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace described its flesh as “a rich custard highly flavoured with almonds”. The flesh can be consumed at various stages of ripeness, and it is used to flavour a wide variety of savoury and sweet desserts in Southeast Asian cuisines. The seeds can also be eaten when cooked.
…
Travel and food writer Richard Sterling says:
its odor is best described as pig-excrement, turpentine and onions, garnished with a gym sock. It can be smelled from yards away. Despite its great local popularity, the raw fruit is forbidden from some establishments such as hotels, subways and airports, including public transportation in Southeast Asia.[55]
Other comparisons have been made with the civet, sewage, stale vomit, skunk spray and used surgical swabs.

I’ve always wanted to try casu martzu. It wouldn’t be illegal unless it was good.
***
Casu martzu[1] (Sardinian pronunciation: [ˈkazu ˈmaɾtsu]; lit. ’rotten/putrid cheese’), sometimes spelled casu marzu, and also called casu modde, casu cundídu and casu fràzigu in Sardinian, is a traditional Sardinian sheep milk cheese that contains live insect larvae (maggots).
…
When consumed, the larvae can survive in the intestine, causing enteric myiasis.[5] Due to this danger, the cheese is outlawed in the European Union and other jurisdictions.
…
Because the larvae in the cheese can launch themselves for distances up to 15 centimetres (6 in) when disturbed,[4][12] diners hold their hands above the sandwich to prevent the maggots from leaping. Some who eat the cheese prefer not to ingest the maggots. Those who do not wish to eat them place the cheese in a sealed paper bag. The maggots, starved for oxygen, writhe and jump in the bag, creating a “pitter-patter” sound. When the sounds subside, the maggots are dead and the cheese can be eaten.[13][9]
…
Because of European Union food hygiene-health regulations, the cheese has been outlawed, and offenders face heavy fines.[13] However, some Sardinians organized themselves in order to make casu martzu available on the black market, where it may be sold for double the price of an ordinary block of pecorino cheese.[11][9] As of 2019, the illegal production of this cheese was estimated as 100 tonnes (98 long tons; 110 short tons) per year, worth between €2–3 million.[16]
***
[Homer voice]: Mmm…64 slices of black-market maggot cheese…
I’d try it once maybe, the thought of eating maggots that stand a small chance of living in the intestine and boring through to the abdominal body cavity is offputting though.
Blue cheese is right smack in the middle of flavor town.
My godson, who is three, loves blue cheese. I am so proud of him.
Blue cheese can give you trippy dreams. The mold is a mild hallucinogen. Sweet dreams are made of cheese…
***
There is no scientific evidence that blue cheese causes weird dreams or affects your dreams in any way. However, blue cheese and most highly-matured cheeses can contain tryptamine and tyramine, which are known to have psychoactive properties. Some people have reported having odd dreams after eating blue cheese. A study funded by the British Cheese Board in 2005 concluded that eating blue cheese causes vivid dreams, while cheddar makes people dream about celebrities.

Why? We had a $17B surplus and they could only find $150K to help pay for fences to protect the farmers’ feed stores?
Best option is $0 for fencing. But if you are going to establish a fund for fencing and you have more money than you know what to do with, put more than $150K in it.

President Biden referred to the presidential helicopter Marine One as “Air Force Helicopter One” Monday — while claiming that Ronald Reagan sent the chopper to take him from Delaware to the DC-area Walter Reed military hospital when Biden had a brain aneurysm in the 1980s.
The 81-year-old’s anecdote is, like other biographical details he’s shared in public remarks, not supported by his own autobiography — or by Reagan’s daily presidential diary.
“President Reagan was nice enough to send Air Force Helicopter One to take me down, but it couldn’t fly,” Biden told firefighters during a day-trip to Philadelphia, using an incorrect name for the aircraft.
“And so my fire department came up, put me in the back and took me on heavy snow on the day I went down to Walter Reed,” added the president, whose stories often face withering fact-checks amid campaign-trail criticism of his mental acuity.
The latter part of the story involving the local fire department is described in Biden’s 2007 book “Promises to Keep,” but Reagan offering or dispatching the presidential helicopter is not mentioned.
