The More You Know…..
“A family restaurant is at odds with the City of Snohomish over its COVID-era outdoor seating area, which the city says requires a permit.”
Did it require a permit when they were forced to add it?
“He said the restaurant is willing to pay for a permit, but they believe that process would involve tearing the current structure down and starting over, reducing their current seating capacity of about 60 seats to just 16.”
OFFS!!
Of course not, that was a health emergency!

Indeed. Best thoughts go out.
“This dangerous effort with marginal benefit will now cost the American taxpayers at least $320 million to operate the pier for only 90 days.”
$320 Million? That’s penny ante grifting. Do better.
But it won’t be covered in the bill they just passed, it will definitely require a supplemental.
FYTW.
The tell is the 90 days part. Nothing is as permanent as a “temporary” government program.
Just have Ilhan Omar and Tlaib paraglide into Gaza with supplies.

“The cost has not just risen. It has exploded,” Senator Roger Wicker, the top Republican on the Democratic-led Senate Armed Services Committee, told Reuters, when asked about the costs.
“This dangerous effort with marginal benefit will now cost the American taxpayers at least $320 million to operate the pier for only 90 days.”
Now I’m just a simple suburban lad, but the phrase that comes to mind when spending a bunch of taxpayer dollars to ostensibly help folks who would gladly kill all those soldiers (and the rest of us too) is “cui bono?” (Other than the Big Guy, natch.)
So we’re basically funding both sides of the same war?

Today, in everything is racist
“Wealthy white Baton Rouge residents have won a decade-long court battle to split from poorer neighborhoods and form their own city with plans for better schools and less crime.
The Louisiana Supreme Court ruled on Friday that the new City of St George could move forward with incorporation, splitting off from the rest of Baton Rouge.
St George will have 86,000 residents across a 60-square-mile area in the southeast of East Baton Rouge Parish and will have its own Mayor and city council.
Supporters of the new city say that the existing city-parish government is poorly run, with high crime rates and bad schools.
Opponents say the movement is ‘racist’ and will create a ‘white enclave’ as it separates a wealthy area of the city from the majority Black city and school district.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13362499/louisiana-st-george-supreme-court-ruling.html
will create a ‘white enclave’
Wasn’t that the point.
Only if money can change a person’s race.
Leader of an anti-St George campaign group, M.E. Cormier, told the New York Times: ‘There is no basis in fact that the existence of St. George is positive or will bring positivity or have a positive impact on any areas of the cities or the parish.
Something would tell me that the citizens of the new St. George have thought this through, and beg to differ.
Looks like Cormier is an opponent of Democracy and self- determination.
I read that Virginia cities are oppressed because they can’t annex territory.
There was apparently a 10-year moratorium on annexation that is about to expire. I’ve heard the moratorium described as racist.
Annexation requires approval from the state legislature, but IIRC not from the county or citizens who are being annexed.
I live uncomfortably close to the City of Richmond, in an area the city would probably seek to annex.
Cant capture tax payers without their consent?
Sounds like the opponents hate democracy.
60 sqmi? That’s about the size of DC. It should be a state.
Probably smaller than San Angelo, TX, which has about that many people.
So, the people paying the majority of the taxes are tired of seeing their tax money stolen and squandered and the parasites are loath to let them escape?
Imagine that.
So St. George thought the rest of the town was dragon them down?
$320 million so we can send supplies to Hamas, while we also give Israel money to fight them.
Frankly, it’s brilliant (at laundering money).
War is our business and business is good.
No, not supplies for Hamas, supplies for the innocent, suffering Palestinian people who are blameless in this tragic conflict.
Oh, of course, for the people. *wink*
And Hamas will ultimately take those supplies.
Heather Thomas, the city administrator for Snohomish, told KING 5 by phone that without a permit, the restaurant is not in compliance with city requirements and international building code.
I was wondering what Thomas did after she aged out of show biz.
Jeez… just do the “inspection” retroactively, charge the restaurant fifty bucks for it, and carry on with life.
If they did that, then they would have to do it for every restaurant that built an outdoor seating area during the pandemic. Madness! Chaos!
$50? Jesus Christ, how is the inspector supposed to wet his beak if you only set the fee to $50.
I’ve heard horror stories from businesses that had to deal with local inspectors.
I learned that from Bob’s Burgers
Stupid hooman tricks
A 52-year-old woman is dead and another was seriously injured after the two-person team fell 1,000 feet while ascending a mountain in Alaska’s Denali National Park on Thursday.
Robbi Mecus, of Keene Valley, New York, died of injuries sustained in the fall, according to park officials. Her climbing partner, a 30-year-old woman from California, was rescued by National Park Service mountaineering rangers on Friday morning and air lifted to an Anchorage hospital with serious injuries, the park said in a news release.
The headline from the paywalled NYT article refers to her QUILTBAG pioneer status. Like no other lesbian ever

“Boston school Supt urged to RESIGN as second whistleblower slams her for letting a trans student with a ‘kill list’ return to class, and files expose her as tax-dodger
The mother of a child at Watertown Middle School, in the west Boston suburbs, said Supt. Deanne Galdston put trans rights over classroom safety and should be forced from her job.
‘I am horrified by the actions not taken by school administrators, who allowed this student to enter back into school days’ after naming 45 students and teachers on a kill list, said the worried mom.
‘No psych evaluation, no real suspension. Any other school would have immediately expelled the student, but not Watertown. Because someone is trans, they can’t afford to look bad, but instead risk the lives of innocent students and staff.’
The student is female and identifies as male. They have been described as ‘attention seeking’ and ‘physically large for a 7th grader.’ They alternate between male and female clothes, and use the boys’ locker room.”

Your terms are acceptable.
Three or four thermonators should do the trick.
That should be ‘expulsion’.
If they were really students, that might work, but they’re bussed in, outside agitators.
Good point.
Now the question is who are these outside agitators and where do they come from?
“OnlyFans creator Farha Khalidi claims she was paid to spread ‘political propaganda’ for Biden admin
“I was doing full-on political propaganda,” the social media personality said during a recent podcast interview with commentator Richard Hanania…
“The funny thing is they’re, like, ‘Do not disclose this as an ad’ because they [were], like, ‘Technically, it’s not a product, so you don’t have to disclose it’s an ad.’ Because I think they just wanted, like, some edgy girl of color to just tell people — like when they nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson, they’re, like, ‘Can you say “as a person of color,” you know, that you feel “reflected”?’”
When probed about the Biden admin, Khalidi, who boasts more than 119,000 Instagram followers, clarified that she was dealing with a “conduit” third-party media company at the time.
“It’s not Biden, but it’s, like, a third party. You know what I mean? It’s, like, a media company that’s doing it on his behalf. I’m not blaming him for this,” Khalidi said.
She went on to say that she ultimately pushed back against the “script” because it was a white woman from the media company telling her what to say…
“I was taking ads by the time I graduated college from, like, the Biden administration, Planned Parenthood and, like, dating apps and stuff. So it was, like, fully financially sustaining me,” Khalidi said.”

The dreaded “he didn’t completely suck, unlike Biden” vote
President Joe Biden is casting the 2024 election partly as a referendum on Donald Trump, but it’s a harder card to play now that he’s in office and some voters have warming memories of the former president’s chaotic term.
The presumptive GOP nominee is showing progress in gathering the Republican Party around him, as his criminal trial underway in New York fuels his claims he’s a victim of political persecution. Even former Attorney General William Barr, who once said Trump shouldn’t be near the Oval Office, told CNN he’d back him. And the former president met with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, his former GOP primary rival, for several hours on Sunday. At the same time, Biden is still experiencing problems with key sectors of his own coalition, including younger voters, a new CNN poll shows.
——-
The CNN poll released Sunday suggests Biden is facing extreme pressure to do more to remind voters of the turmoil of Trump’s single term, which ended amid his erratic leadership in a once-in-a-century pandemic but that now appears to some voters to have largely been a time of economic stability.
More than half, 55%, of all Americans say they see Trump’s presidency as a success, while 44% see it as a failure. That contrasts with a survey taken just before Trump left office and days after the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol, when 55% of voters considered his presidency a failure. Regarding Biden’s presidency so far, 61% say it’s a failure, while 39% see it as successful.
The findings underscored the reversed dynamic that the president must deal with as he seeks a second term. Four years ago, he was able to assail Trump’s time in office from his position as a challenger. Biden vowed the country would “overcome this season of darkness” and choose “hope over fear, facts over fiction, fairness over privilege.” Now, however, Trump is able to exploit Biden’s travails in office as he seeks to make the election a classic referendum on the incumbent despite his own liabilities. The former president paints a picture of a failing nation, adrift in a world spinning into disorder, almost every day during breaks from his trial in Manhattan.
You mean people are going to judge Joe by his performance on the job? That doesn’t seem fair.
“You mean people are going to judge Joe by his performance on the job?”
There’s a first time for everything.
I expect a large majority of the people who voted for him will do no such thing.
Oh, they’ll judge him: “Is he still a Democrat, and the nominee? Then that’s good enough for me.”
You and I would use different, more rigorous, criteria, obviously.

Supposed to tie to Shpip’s comment. But, it does well on its own.
Well, eight hours of this gig is FAR easier, less stressful and taxing than 4.5 hours of mass-babysitting. I’m shocked how much faster each day goes. It means little that my office is in the closet of my bedroom.
I’m getting paid much more, as well. All in all, I’m making the same as I did with my first teaching gig, also with ‘free’ room/board. For a single guy, no kids/wife/pets, I’ll be doing SHOCKINGLY well (for me) once I get my first check this Friday. This is my first Mon-Fri, regularly-scheduled job since March 1, 2022, the last day of my Korean contract before returning to the States. (The Paper doesn’t count. That was…in no way “scheduled” or “regular.” My bowel movements kinda are, but yuck, that job had no schedule. Tough for a solo rookie.
Time to get out for a walk before the rain comes a pouring.
It’s a gol-darn mystery, that one.
Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has multiple major accomplishments on her resume. She’s been a U.S. Representative for nearly 37 years. She’s the first female Speaker of the House and the first woman to lead either chamber of Congress. Is she also a market-beating investor?
The former House Speaker nearly tripled the S&P 500’s returns in 2023, giving her the ninth-best returns among members of Congress, according to options trading platform operator Unusual Whales. However, all of Pelosi’s disclosures of trades listed her husband, Paul Pelosi, as the owner.
She should start an investment fund 3X the S&P is better than any one I’ve seen. It would likely be shut down for insider trading within a month.
Hammer Head funds.
*Kermit applause”
“giving her the ninth-best returns among members of Congress”
Pure as the driven snow, they are. Their investing acumen is off the charts. With that kind of financial smarts, no wonder the government is running a surplus.
“all of Pelosi’s disclosures of trades listed her husband, Paul Pelosi, as the owner”
The insider trading rules also apply to spouses. I wonder if the exemption Congress gave itself does, too? Actually, no, I don’t wonder that at all.

“Plot your jump to put us north of the planet”
How can one be north of something in space? Was the intent to sort of position the ship stably above the north pole of the gas giant without putting it into an orbit over both poles?
Biden’s troubles are more remarkable given that he’s running against the first ex-president to be indicted, who incited a riot that almost broke American democracy, and who left office in disgrace after a single, tumultuous term. “Saturday Night Live” comedian Colin Jost made this point in his roast of Biden at the correspondents’ dinner Saturday. “The Republican candidate for president owes half a billion in fines for bank fraud and is currently spending his days … (in) a porn star hush money trial and the race is tied? Nothing makes sense anymore,” Jost said.
The joke went down well in the cavernous ballroom of the Washington Hilton. But outside of the cities where the political elites and media congregate, Trump enjoys a deep well of support from tens of millions of Americans waiting for a chance to try to send him back to the White House.
It’s all so confusing.

Another fine teaching day. The time flew, so that’s a good sign. I had 7th and 8th graders today. I don’t think much learning happens in schools these days now that all the students have smartphones. Even so, I was pleasantly surprised a few times. A student recognized the Einstein quote I wrote on the board, and another showed me a card trick. I do what I can. At least I know teaching is the right job for me. It’s easy money.
I tempted to say that if you want the vast majority of students to read, you have to lock them in a building with nothing but books. I’m not anti-technology, but it is overused in schools.
You cannot refuse to pay for “treatment” of an imaginary disease
In oral arguments, the judges asked about mastectomies, as an example. Those are covered for patients with breast cancer, but they were not covered by the health insurance plans for transgender patients.
In an 8-6 decision, the majority of the 4th circuit decided that these patients were entitled to health insurance coverage for their care. Judge Roger Gregory, writing the majority opinion, called the denial of coverage “obviously discriminatory.”
Everything for everybody all the time. That’s what democracy means.
Outrageous.
How to say transism is a disease without saying it is a disease.
Seems more like what they’re saying is that being cisgender is a disease, which makes lopping off healthy bits a medical treatment rather than a cosmetic one.
….And there goes our insurance rates through the roof.
That’s just because insurance companies are greedy. It has nothing to do with things they are required to cover.
How is it obviously discriminatory to not monetarily coddle mental illness by lopping off body parts? The 4th circuit are a bunch of Goddamn retards.
What they CAN do is require rigorous mental health assessment before approving mastectomy for “gender dysphoria.”
That’s what the 15 minute appointment is for.
I said RIGOROUS. Harrumph.
OK. Make it 20.

Snippet from a recent conversation I had:
Esq: “Did you go to law school?”
Me: “No. I wanted to keep my wits about me.”
Esq: “Very funny. Save it. I’ve heard ’em all.”
Another snippet:
*While inquiring about partition sales at the sheriff’s office*
Me: “May I speak to someone who knows about partition sales?”
Deputy: “You should probably talk to a lawyer.”
Me: “I will get around to that but first I want to talk to someone who knows what they are talking about.”
Deputy: *Snort* “Sure, I will get the deputy sheriff that has done one.”
Mind you, the lawyers I know have saved me more money than they have cost me and I have become friends with some of them.
Sorry. My point is that the courts in general are hemorrhaging their credibility at an alarming rate and for good reason.
Meanwhile, on Friday the Biden administration issued a regulation strengthening protections against discrimination for transgender patients across the country. That regulation applies to any health care — not just care related to their gender — so a trans person with a broken arm can’t be mistreated in the E.R., for example.
Denial of basic care happens millions of times a day in emergency rooms all across the country.
