How do you feel about this heckling fan? Looks like LeBron isn’t really liked in several places now.
Who likes that douche? He may be a talented ball player, but has the charisma of cheese dicks sucking hobo.
The City of Cleveland earned their two points in my book when they burned his jerseys in effigy after he left for Miami.
It brings their total to two points.
For a window of time, there were armed police guarding the huge billboard with LeBron’s picture on it right outside the stadium. Of course, those same fans lapped up his shit when he came back to Cleveland.

National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) spokesman Mike Berg told Breitbart News in a statement Tuesday the DCCC continues to spend money on “ineffective” ads while lying about Republicans and their military service.
“These ads will be as ineffective as the $345 million the DCCC lit on fire the last cycle,” Berg said. “But it’s still important to note that the DCCC is blatantly lying about members who have condemned QAnon, and that they are smearing multiple veterans to score political points.”
Based on the media hogwash people unquestioningly swallow hook line and balls. I’d say the ad campaign will be a rousing success.
I am ambivalent about the guy, but if he really said it the way the headline puts it, this was a double plus good way to let them know not to fuck with you.
He’d get my vote just for saying that.
He’s given blanket permission, but I bet his security detail would take you down if you tried.

It’s hilarious that CNN and friends are wasting so much time on this bullshit. Bit ridiculous that Congress is holding struggle sessions to demand members deny allegiance to it, though. GOPers made a mistake even participating in that charade.
Remember that those GOPers are also part of the same political credentialed elite class, and that while some of them saw the light because the bad orange man’s charades showed how many people were aware the political establishment was not just corrupt, but downright inept, and agreed with him, they are swamp creatures by nature and wanted to go back to business as usual: they fuck us over and get rich selling us out.

No music, though. What’s up with you and Swissy?
No worries. I’ve got it covered.

I’m sure Snopes will be around to fact check this.
Although the statement is technically true, we want it to be false. So we rate it mostly false.
Oh you know they must be.
I guess they’re busy totaling up all legitimate, major irregularities from the 2020 election.
Puerto Rico’s Effective Minimum Wage Would Be $68/Hour Under Biden Plan
Someone is getting a big raise!
That isn’t fair. They need to adjust the rates by jurisdiction so everyone gets a $68/hour minimum wage.
Analysis
“We are lost,” a Fox News insider remarked to me recently, and there are lots of data points to back up the assertion.
Nielsen numbers for the month of January were released on Tuesday, and Fox ranked third in the three-horse cable news race for the first time since 2001. Furthermore, CNN was the No. 1 channel across all of cable.
Think about it this way: January was one of the biggest months of political news in a generation, yet Fox couldn’t capitalize. Instead of competing by promoting correspondents and putting news coverage front and center, the network prioritized ever more outrageous, ever more extreme opinion. “Tucker Carlson Tonight” essentially expanded to “Tucker Carlson Day and Night.”
——-
Certainly, there are many reasons for these trendlines. The Fox base’s frustration in the election outcome is one. The availability of Newsmax as a Fox alternative is another. The scrambled politics of this moment, with President Biden visibly trying to work with Republicans, is yet another.
The public’s demand for news is another big reason. Between the pandemic, the transition of power, and the insurrection, many people want reporting ahead of pontificating, and CNN is built for that. Fox is not. (Just count the number of CNN bureaus versus Fox.) Fox is actively avoiding the news when producers believe bluster will rate better — on Tuesday night, for example, CNN and MSNBC showed the US Capitol ceremony for police officer Brian Sicknick while Fox stuck with Sean Hannity’s screech fest. Laura Ingraham only briefly showed the ceremony when Biden visited the Capitol to pay his respects…
Who better than CNN to pontificate about the declining fortunes of Faux News? If anybody knows about being completely dependent on their coverage of Trump to drive viewership, they should.
They’re straight news, all the way.
Fox really fucked up with the election call. A ton of boomers all switched to OAN or Newsmax after that. I know my grandparents did.
I don’t think they fucked up so much as they had their Disney/CCP marching orders…
The establishment Republicans always hated Trump and they saw the election as a chance to drive that knife they’d been holding for 4 years into his back. Barr, McConnell, Fox news, Lindsey Graham all went after Trump hard. Unfortunately for them, they underestimated Trump’s support and overestimated their power at controlling the narrative. It cost them 2 Senate seats, a huge chunk of their Fox audience and there will probably be some interesting primaries next election season.
I’d say it also cost Them a currently unknown percentage of their base. I’d say we’ll see how much at the next election, but I don’t trust the election results, so I have no clue how much of the GOP base has become disengaged and/or independent.
Stalin was not kidding when he reminded his people that the only thing that counted was who was counting the votes…
Our election system isn’t broken either: it is precisely what the people that would abuse it need and want it to be so they can make sure the fucking unwashed masses don’t get away with winning an election they thought they had rigged for the establishment candidate. When all the establishment candidates are pure shit (Both Obama and Clinton were really so toxic that they made Nixon look like a saint), they figured using some guy they could present as worse would make it go their way. Then the SOB goes and wins by getting more voted than the margin of their rigging! And he almost did it again a second time. This time however they were ready for it, and a quick overnight halt let them right the ship.
They are not going to let that happen again, so they need things to remain opaque and full of holes…
Idk how Trump still has like 95% support from registered republicans, his coattails gained seats in the house and the republicans refusal to print money cost them a senate majority nothing trump did. Turns out establishment republicans did a ton of wishcasting and it’s going to end up with a ton of qanon people in office after the mid terms. Those retards need to “cope” as the kids are saying.

“many people want reporting ahead of pontificating, and CNN is built for that”
Like LeBron is built for horse racing.
President Biden visibly trying to work with Republicans
hahaahahaha….not sure how I missed that the first time I read through it. Go on, pull the other one.
Popehat is singularly awful person.
Yup.
It is to my shame that I didn’t originally notice how hateful he was because he was being hateful towards people I disliked.
Surely someone here knows the name of the philopsophy is that is “one’s morality is determined by who one hates. The more hateful you are towards bad people and the more evil the object of your hate is, the more righteous you are.” ‘Cause that’s Ken’s.
No, that’s Karens. We are all a little bit of Karen/Ken.
That and he’s typical of a certain breed of lawyer*. He’s spent a large chunk of his adult life being called in like a shaman and “winning” arguments against people by being pedantic and captious. Goes to some people’s heads.
* No offence to any lawyers here living or dead, who are the exceptions.
‘“I hate that they’re so distrustful,” Palmeri lamented.’
Of course, actually being trustworthy is right out. Just accept the piss on your leg as rain and get back in line.

“Joe and Jill Biden join Democrats and Republicans to mourn slain Capitol cop Brian Sicknick, 42, as he lies in honor in building he was defending from MAGA rioters when he was murdered”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9217377/Joe-Jill-Biden-pay-respects-Officer-Brian-Sicknick-lies-honor-Capitol.html
Do we even know how he died or who caused it?
no. I have yet to see an official definitively say.
They want people to keep believing he was beat to death.. It is obvious if this particular narrative had legs, the statists would be milking it in order to push totalitarian things they hanker for now that the rabble has gotten uppity, and not keeping quiet about the facts like they are doing.
We are seriously being played by these scumbags…
Wasn’t it a fire extinguisher to the face?
no official has confirmed that story on the record.
he stroked out after leaving the capital and going back to the barracks. Now maybe he suffered injuries at the riot there were def capital police assaulted in places but I have yet to see anyone official say exactly what “injuries” he suffered. So I’m chalking it up same as the Maga chuds who all suffered heart attacks.
And all of the “fire extinguisher injury” stories indicate that it was thrown, not swung.
I heard fire extinguisher, pipes and heavy sticks (think flag poles), and so on…
They stopped short of claiming it was the butt of a rifle or automatic military style evil weapon of doom that totes should be banned, cause they couldn’t find anyone with a real weapon in the crowd and would have had to use clearly fake footage to peddle that.
Donald Trump used the Force to choke him out. We’ve all seen the footage, Hater!
Not strange at all. When cops are killed, they put very few resources into it and rarely catch the killer if they ever even find out how he was killed in the first place./s. I’m going with friendly fire.
I’m going with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer but hey, why not do a Sweepstakes dealio?

I don’t know if you saw it, but AOC put out a video clarifying why she felt so scared and threatened by the unwashed deplorables that broke into the capitol: Here ya go….

It’s all for show. These people totes get that so many of the morons that follow them are all about emotions and not bright enough to see they are being buttfucking lied to.
“AOC’s office *is not even in the capitol building*
yep she is in the Cannon House Office Building across the street from the capitol”
Having been to both it’s like a stone’s throw away. But as far as I know no protesters actually entered the building she was in.
So she is the David Hogg of capitol riots.
Well, she did mourn about an empty parking lot. Make of that what you will.
Good news guys, kids in cages just no more kids in cages on tv.

I’m sure AOC is booking her flight down there as we speak. ?
Is there is another empty parking lot to make her have the sads?
God Damn you!
Ditto, I was about to make that joke!
The sincere fear in her eyes is as hilarious
Maybe you should not simply dismiss and ridicule half the voting population.
“A lot of people said they aren’t really Republicans, that, like, they’re for Trump. That’s it,” Tara Palmeri warned during a Friday appearance on MSNBC. “I think the base is getting stronger, truly. I think an impeachment would make him even more powerful — a conviction, is what I mean.”
“If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.”
I think a lot of people are just pissed off at DC.
yep. I sincerely hope we get a demagogue who legit is talking about jailing the lockdown pols and buerecrats in 2024. They installed a permanent fence around the capital for a reason. There are going to be some really pissed off people who are soon discover there is no going back to their old jobs ever even if we return to some semblance of normal in the summer and fall of next year.
*this
I don’t hold out much hope seeing the compliance around us. A soft “Grey Market” and everyone wearing the brand seems more likely. “What about my Kids?” says every sane person.
I don’t have much hope at all. Rare are the people who saw this bullshit for what it was at the beginning. Rarer still is someone who will admit they were wrong publicly or even privately. Noone want’s to admit they were hoodwinked and sold a bill of goods and totes bought in out of sheer cowardice. Mix that in with the people who like how things are, made money off of how things are or are legitimately broken from fear and stress and it’s seems like an insurmountable task of going back to normal anytime in the near future.
The biggest Trump supporters I know are union guys who always vote Dem. There are important reasons people voted for him, but it’s always waved off as “white supremacy”. As long as those issues aren’t addressed, people will get more and more pissed off.
More specifically black union guys.
I guess I should have read the comments first.
Stop talking about Kamaula, you racists
Vice President Kamala Harris has spent her first two weeks in office working with the president on coronavirus relief, consulting with the head of the World Health Organization and talking with the prime minister of Canada.
It’s her interview with a local news station in West Virginia, though, that’s getting more attention — and not in a good way.
——-
The flap was an early signal of some of the issues Harris faces as she settles in and seeks to define her position within the White House.
“Harris has a challenge in figuring out what is her role, what’s her specialty in this White House,” said longtime Democratic strategist Joel Payne.
Harris also misspoke on some details in her West Virginia interview, referring to “abandoned land mines” instead of “abandoned mine lands” in coal country.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki was asked about Harris and her West Virginia remarks twice during Monday’s briefing, and offered little insight into how the interview came about, saying only that “our focus is communicating with the American people” about the coronavirus aid bill.
——-
Harris’ chief of staff during her time as California attorney general, Nathan Barankin, predicted her ability to connect with others would make her a compelling surrogate for Biden if she’s able to engage with the public.
“This is a constant, in every briefing or interaction you have with Kamala Harris about policy decisions. And that is, how does this affect real people?” he said.
Payne, who is Black, said that while Harris’ history-making position as the first Black and South Asian woman to serve as vice president offers her new opportunities, it may also present complications.
“There are challenges seen and unseen for the first Black woman in this position to quarrel with. She will constantly have to ask herself the question: Would a previous vice president be critiqued in this way?” he said.
Can’t we all just get along? Now shut up and vote the way we tell you. That’s what DEMOCRACY means.
There are also abandoned land mines in Libya. We should help reclaim them.
Harris might be the dumbest political liability elevated to a prominent spotlight of political relevance since Biden was VP. And it could be argued Biden was VP solely as a bullet proof vest for Obama. Which I guess is what Kamala is. Actually pretty shrewd they picked the one person who can make Biden look like a smooth approachable and relatable guy.
her ability to connect with others would make her a compelling surrogate for Biden if she’s able to engage with the public.
She definitely comes off as likeable with that nasally tone, cackle and generally fake personality.
Jesus fucking Christ on crackers… If I could have fucked my way to the top I’d be King of the World by age 23. I chose. Badly.
First the San Francisco School Board decided to rename 44 schools because they are named after people with ties to racism or slavery. Now the Arts Department has taken a bold move by changing its name, “VAPA” because they say, “acronyms are a symptom of white supremacy culture.”
Everything western/decent/useful/etc. is white-supremacy. Now let us reverse this scourge of human progress, comrade.
Politico reporter Tara Palmeri explained that after visiting Wyoming, she found the political reality on the ground totally contradicts the assumption in Washington D.C. that Trump’s power has diminished.

The body of United States Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick arrived at the Capitol late Tuesday evening. His body will lay in honor inside the Capitol rotunda. Officer Sicknick

If I recall correctly, the Capitol Martyr’s family released a statement the day after he died attempting to depoliticize his death, and saying they did not want to release the details of cause-of-death. I found that interesting. Not as interesting as the Democrats and their media steno pool parading his corpse around like one of those out-of-control al quaeda funeral processions where they get the guy out of his coffin and dance him around in the street, but close.
If the feds get around to charging somebody with murdering him, we’ll find out what killed him. Probably. Maybe.
“Not as interesting as the Democrats and their media steno pool parading his corpse around like one of those out-of-control al quaeda funeral processions where they get the guy out of his coffin and dance him around in the street, but close.”
What’s the over & under on this happening when we are forced to play “Weekend at Biden’s”?
He suffered a stroke (or maybe a brain bleed, not sure) later that day while doing paperwork. Was it related, who knows but don’t let an advantageous corpse go to waste.
I’m surprised they didn’t do that African Gif wherein the dudes dance with the casket. Poor dude, but really, TMITE?

Baseball birthdays: #1 is Fred Lynn. ROY and MVP in 1975, although 1979 was his best year. I didn’t realize he actually spent less than half his career (7 years out of 16) in Boston.
Not in the HoF, doesn’t quite have the numbers IMO (60 WAR), but he wouldn’t be entirely out of place. There are lesser players in the Hall, but there are better ones not in too.
50 WAR, not 60.
He was gone from Boston by the time I started watching baseball so, when I think of Fred Lynn, I think of the Angels.
Top 10 players by Career WAR not in Hall, with rationale:
1. Barry Bonds 162.8 Steroids
2. Roger Clemens 139.2 Steroids
3. Alex Rodriguez 117.5 Steroids
4. Albert Pujols 100.7 Active
5. Adrian Beltre 93.6 Not yet eligible
6. Pete Rose 79.7 Gambler
7. Curt Schilling 79.5 71.1% – will get to 75% soon
8. Jim McCormick 76.2 Retired in 1887
9. Bill Dahlen 75.3 Retired in 1911
10. Lou Whitaker 75.1 Criminal incompetence on the part of the voters. He got 2.9% of the vote his first and last year on the ballot.
Curt Schilling isn’t going to get in till his last year out of spite.
He has 6 more years. I figure his politics wont matter 4 years from now. Unless he runs for President.
I thought they lowered it to 10 years on the ballot (which would give him one more year rather than six)?
Did they? I thought it was still 15. Give me a minute to check…you are correct, they changed it in 2014. Anyone already at 10+ years was grandfathered in, but Schilling wasn’t there yet, so he only has 1 more year.
I think he gets it.
Hall of Fame trivia question because rules have changed over time: Who was the last player to play in the majors after having received a HOF vote?
Minnie Minoso?
Very good guess.
Minoso received a vote in 1969 and then played in 1976 and 1980.
Alas, you are wrong.
Jose Rijo retired in 1995, received 1 vote in 2001, and then came out of retirement to play in 2001 and 2002, including 31 games in 2002.
He was back on the ballot in 2008 but received zero votes.
Minnie Minoso? That was a while ago I suppose, am I forgetting someone?
Sorry, I hadn’t refreshed the page. I knew there had to be someone else.
Fred Lynn was my brother’s favorite player because they are lefties. I wanted to hit like Jim Rice and field like Dwight Evans, neither happened. But that was great outfield for a few years. If Rice hadn’t gotten hurt in ’75 they might have won the Series, and Lynn may not have won both awards.
I wanted to be Gary Carter but I may have outlived him.
Palmeri then described the political disconnect between Middle America and Washington D.C., where many people believed election was stolen, that COVID was a scam, and that the Capitol riot was spearheaded by Antifa agitators.
“I hate that they’re so distrustful,” Palmeri lamented. “It feels like another world but that’s what’s on the ground and I don’t think that we can ignore it and I’m really happy that I went out there and saw it because I think that there’s a huge disconnect between Washington and the rest of the country.”
You know what makes people “distrustful”?
When they know you don’t respect them, and you refuse to just leave them the fuck alone. And when you lie to them.
“NYT: Cuomo “all but declared war” on health experts in COVID-19 crisis
Some experts, anyway — in large part determined, the New York Times suggests, by how politically useful they were to Andrew Cuomo. After a series of high-profile departures in state health agencies and an angry retort by Cuomo at a press conference on Friday, the NYT reports that Cuomo has “all but declared war” on the agencies fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. Following a series of autocratic decisions to override the plans set up for months in vaccinations, resulting in a terrible start to the rollout of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, Cuomo suddenly has stopped being a media celebrity and more of a target:”

THERE’S a word I haven’t heard in a long time. Are you my Grandma? Grandpa just called them “rubbers”.
I must say, the blather from the swamp creatures about “We have to do what we did in Iraq and Afghanistan to root out these wreckers and saboteurs!” is amusing. Apparently, they find our efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan to be successful?
I don’t think they’d fight with one arm tied behind their back here or wouldn’t intend to anyway. On the other hand a large proportion of the non politicized military,meaning colonel and various equivalents below, would balk to the point of desertion or rebellion. Regardless, it’d be a giant and better armed Balkans like mess.
Wishful. Frame it the right way, give it the aura of legitimacy, and the bulk will go along with it. Other than a couple of pissful shitty living conditions and ingratitude stories, how many units refused to deploy to the DC sham?
Nope, the ranks will split down the middle. A few are true believers and there is no small number of doggedly go-alongs, not to mention the healthy number of flat-out opportunists – they will all line up for the power side. The balance will be appalled and rebel. The former will have most of the brass, particluarly above O-5, the latter will have the muscle.
Again, wishful thinking. Smear on legitimacy and the bulk will go along with it. Just like they have with prior military usage against fellow Americans, and like cops or any bureaucratized organization does. This idea that the E4 Mafia will save America is as delusional as the core of Qanon.
Who said anyone was going to save America? There will be a fight contested by both sides. There is no one side with overwhelming force. That is indeed a foolish fantasy – which of course would explain it’s popularity in various circles.
I can’t see E-4’s from Texas and Tennessee patrolling neighborhoods in… Texas or Tennessee and shooting gun owners. Just not going to happen.
Of course not. They will be happy to provide security against armed insurrection and protect their community, when it’s framed that way with lawful orders from their lawful chain of command.
The Bonus Army, Kent State, and Esequiel Hernandez laugh at the idea of Americans won’t fire on “their own”. Ashlee Babbit, for that matter too.
Being Hugh Thompson is harder than it looks.

The Marjorie Taylor Greene censor, criticism and chin scratching by the usual crowd of rock throwers and controlled opposition has me steaming. Good to know we’ve solved every problem.
She’s clearly batshit, but that’s incidental. We’ve got plenty of batshit in Congress. This little sideshow is a reminder of just what would happen if someone from ‘our’ side wound up in Congress: they’d howl and scream until Dave Smith, or Vermin Supreme or whomever was thrown out and replaced with a ‘respectable’ person.

Thought of you when this article popped up in my newsfeed.
Niiiiice
Purge the bourgeois compromisers
Progressives are targeting moderate Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) as liberals express frustration with the pair over their reluctance to scrapping the filibuster and opposition to other demands from the left.
Saikat Chakrabarti, Corbin Trent and Zack Exley, all of whom played a role in launching now-Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-N.Y.) campaign in 2018, founded No Excuses PAC to try to find primary challengers for Manchin and Sinema.
“In 2018, we helped elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to Congress and launched the Green New Deal. Now we are launching a new campaign to replace conservative Democrats in the Senate who stand in the way of progress. It’s called No Excuses, and we need your help immediately to run ads telling Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema that they will be primaried and replaced in 2024 if they join with Republicans to shrink their own party’s pandemic, climate, and economic plans,” they wrote in an email to supporters.
Make peace with the counterrevolutionaries? The Long Knives will come for you.
Because a far left prog totally has a good chance of beating a Republican in West Virginia. Some damned fine strategery there! I wish them lots of luck….seriously. Go ahead and knock off Joe Manchin for us.
Just when you think the Republicans have cornered the market on stupidity – the left shows they won’t give up so easily.
Sinema is a conservative Dem? If she’s conservative, then the Dems really are mostly (far) left.
Compared to the AOC crew, she is, I guess.
She’s sorta hot and wears the hooker boots. “Festus is willing!’
Let’s have a conversation on the second amendment… you racist, knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing, inbred bigot.
Guns have become a hot button issue. Guns divide us. It’s become difficult to have calm conversations about guns. It may be even harder to have productive conversations about our Second Amendment.
The Second Amendment may not be as noble as we like to think. Are we ready to recognize it was included, at least in part, to satisfy southern states, where plantation owners wanted protection from slave revolts? This doesn’t sound as noble as protecting oneself from tyranny. Do we care that this sacred amendment is stained by the blood of slaves?
Today’s gun conversations are colored by fear — fear of infringement of our Second Amendment rights, fear of others with guns, fear of people with different values and ethnicities.
More and more, we assume we need guns. As Iowa lawmakers got back to work, a three-member House panel proposed a gun rights amendment be added to the Iowa Constitution. This amendment states, “The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. The sovereign state of Iowa affirms and recognizes this right to be a fundamental individual right. Any and all restrictions of this right shall be subject to strict scrutiny.”
The amendment could end up dismantling Iowa’s existing background checks, concealed carry regulations and permits to purchase. Is this what is best for Iowa?
Do we really think all gun laws are useless infringements? Do we want those convicted of domestic abuse to have guns? Do we want our teenagers who are depressed to have guns? How do we justify anyone needing a semi-automatic assault weapon or an assault rifle?
“semi-automatic assault weapon or an assault rifle”
That’s funny, it shows that this person actually grasps the distinction but is willing to use the loaded label for transparent political propaganda.
I would challenge her to define either one without using the color black as part of the definition.
Well, the last two is your own progjection and the first one is what you’re actually trying to do, so….
Why do people believe us when we tell them we hate them and want to take things away from them?
We’re only doing it for your own good!
The 2A fight is old. The 1A is not the biggest threat to utopia.
s/not/now/
Do we really think all gun laws are useless infringements?
Absolutely. Next?
What does utility have to do with infringement?
It’s Iowa City. Core of the People’s Republic of Johnson County. Who gives a fuck what this nitwit has to say?
Today’s gun conversations are colored by fear
That’s really fucking rich coming from the people who stand atop the corpses after every “mass shooting”.
OFFS, the 2nd Amendment was not a concession to the slave states by the free states. They all wanted to protect the right to keep and bear arms, particularly since disarming the colonists was one of the major abuses committed by the British.
Gun control was part of Jim Crow.
The trigger for the battles of Lexington and Concord was an attempt to confiscate the colonial armories.
It’s almost as if they ignore history.
They actually don’t know history.
They only know whatever horseshit is being shared by their friends through social media.
Gun control was part of Jim Crow.
Which is now a Republican legacy donchaknow? Democrats had NOTHING to do with it.
The stakes seemed so much lower and the horse race more fun before they torched my business model and business with their covid bullshit.
Ouch.
Today’s gun conversations are colored by fear — fear of infringement of our Second Amendment rights, fear of others with guns, fear of people with different values and ethnicities.
I cannot help it if you’re so weakminded as to fear me for no reason. I and my guns are no threat to anyone who is not a threat to me.
It’s that last part – they are a threat to you, and at some level they know it.
^Yep
Your guns are like pitbulls. They may seem friendly now, but can turn on you, your family or strangers at any moment.

SFUSD meeting – Wannafud?
Hrmm… One of our servers has been up since January 4th 2017. It gave us no trouble until recently.
Clearly Trump is good for server stability.
/snark.
Yes, I know it’s absurd. I’ve been trying to get the application team to get off the box since well before then, as these old boxes are just security bombs waiting to go off.
One group I’m supporting is on several applications that are so far past end of life, the companies that released them won’t even accept payment to continue support.
Do they at least admit they used to sell it? We have some where the well-known vendor has denied they even exist.
Yes, and they still sell it. Just new versions that are supported.
Obviously Trump is taking credit for Obama’s server stability. Trump’s server instability policies are only now starting to have an effect.
In a sane world, the Democrats accusing Former President Cartoon Villain of election interference would at least pause before attempting to cancel a duly elected Representative.
Haha. We now return to our regularly scheduled insanity.
The women in the painting is well drawn.
The ad claims the members’ two votes against former President Donald Trump’s second impeachment amounts to support for QAnon.
They’re going to hurt themselves with that stretch. Pop a muscle or something like that.
So it’s no surprise that the District of Columbia, with one of the highest median household incomes in the country, already has a minimum wage of $15/hour. (Some states have passed a $15 minimum wage but D.C.’s is the only one currently in effect.)
So DC mandates a $15/hr minimum wage? What would wages be without such a law?
“A lot of people said they aren’t really Republicans, that, like, they’re for Trump. That’s it,” Tara Palmeri warned during a Friday appearance on MSNBC. “I think the base is getting stronger, truly. I think an impeachment would make him even more powerful — a conviction, is what I mean.”
If you strike me down….
Of course, none of this would have happened if the Hawks had opted to not sell courtside seats during a pandemic.
“During a pandemic”. Go fuck yourselves.
That’s good advice from Popehat on the “fire in a crowded theater” bullshit.
First the San Francisco School Board decided to rename 44 schools because they are named after people with ties to racism or slavery. Now the Arts Department has taken a bold move by changing its name, “VAPA” because they say, “acronyms are a symptom of white supremacy culture.”
Go fuck yourselves.

Another life cut tragically short by the snifflecooties
“Captain Tom,” the 100-year-old World War II veteran who raised millions for the U.K.’s National Health Service last year, died on Tuesday, just days after he tested positive for Covid-19, his family confirmed.
In a statement, his daughters Hannah Ingram-Moore and Lucy Teixeira said they were able to spend the last hours of his life with him, reminiscing about their childhood.
“We shared laughter and tears together,” Ingram-Moore said, adding that 2020 was “nothing short of remarkable” for her father.
Lock down the pubs! Close the schools! Barricade the malls!

And a lot of analytical equipment (GC, IC, HPLC) are used across many fields.

But we do actually do some ridiculously minor biological work — screening the water plant for bacterial growth, that sort of thing.

As I’m stuck on a support call (for an issue that’s been ongoing for months, with passing the issue back between two vendors), I thought I would share something that may be of interest to some of those here.

NH Democrats call for Rep. Baldasaro to be disciplined for not wearing a mask
Democrats are calling for the speaker of the New Hampshire House to discipline a state representative who traveled out of state and then chaired a committee hearing in-person last week without a mask.
Last week, state Rep. Al Baldasaro, R-Londonderry, chaired the House State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs Committee meeting in-person without a mask immediately after returning from a trip to Florida.
As a state representative, Baldasaro is considered an essential worker and did not need to quarantine. But rules did require him to be wearing some kind of personal protective equipment, and the House speaker’s office eventually intervened to get him to wear a face shield.
From the min wage article.
Pushing a single uniform standard on a diverse group may be what governments do best but its cruel consequences are so predictable, so well documented, it’s overly-generous to call them “unintended.”
Hmmm, I wonder if that could be turned into some kind of proverb or something.
If lawmakers are truly stupid, which they are, it can still be called unintended.
They may not have the necessary background to understand the full impact of the laws they are passing, but that doesn’t excuse them from ignoring those who do.

No can ask about criminal history.
Because a lot of previous employers will only confirm that the person worked there but not discuss job performance or reasons for leaving. They don’t want to get sued.

Some people become very good at interviewing when they get a lot of practice doing so. That and she ticked some useful boxes.

Turning up the heat on the pressure cooker
The House of Representatives has officially created a new rule that will fine any member for failing to complete security screening prior to entering the House floor.
With the passing of this rule Tuesday evening, members who fail to comply with security screenings will be fined $5,000 for the first offense and $10,000 for a second offense. These fines would be deducted directly from members’ salaries by the chief administrative officer.
When metal detectors were installed outside of the House floor January 12 for all members and staffers to walk through, many lawmakers aired their frustrations. Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado, who filmed a campaign advertisement vowing to carry her handgun around Capitol Hill prior to arriving in Washington, was also involved in a standoff with Capitol Police while trying to get on the floor when the metal detectors were newly installed. Republican Rep. Andy Harris of Maryland tried to take a concealed firearm on the House floor.
On Tuesday evening, lawmakers appeared compliant with the new security measures and went through the metal detectors before entering the House floor. The vote was 216-210 in favor of the new rule.
Rep. Jim McGovern, a Massachusetts Democrat who’s chairman of the Rules Committee, said on the House floor Tuesday why it was important for members to abide by the metal detectors.
“These metal detectors are manned by the same police officers who saved our lives during the insurrection while risking their own,” McGovern said. “Some members on the other side have disrespected these Capitol Police officers, verbally abused them, pushed them aside and disregarded their orders — all to avoid this basic safety measure. That is no way to treat our heroes.”
A giant “fuck you” to the people who are ostensibly your colleagues and equal partners in the operation of the government.
I can’t wait to see how this plays out. How long ’til a brawl breaks out?
Undetectable wooden canes! Ghost canes!
Gun Free zone always work right?
Forget the metal detectors. They should install mental detectors.
And permanently deny the House a quorum?
Step 1: Put an airsoft replica in your open cary holster. Put jacket over both.
Step 2: Enter House chamber through the metal detector, remove jacket.
Step 3: Profit!

Last week, just for laughs, I looked at some stuff on Zillow in places like Craig, Colorado, and Grand junction; western slope. But then I remembered what a commie shithole Colorado has become. The morons who used to only be able to shit in their own nests (looking at you, Boulder) have now extended their evil grasp to the entire state.
And Craig was where I woke up to a -42 degree temperature. Never mind.

The fine also attempts to address the growing concerns from members who feel unsafe at the Capitol in the wake of the violent insurrection and those who since the attack have wanted to beef up their security due to a fear of other members.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat, told reporters last week that while she is committed to addressing the concerns of her colleagues over security, that effort is hampered because “the enemy is within the House of Representatives,” referencing the rhetoric and behavior of some Republican members of Congress.
Pelosi released a statement Tuesday night following passage of the rule.
“It is beyond comprehension why any Member would refuse to adhere to these simple, commonsense steps to keep this body safe,” Pelosi stated. “It is sad that we have been forced to move forward with a rule change imposing fines on those who refuse to abide by these protections, but the People’s House must and will be safe, so that we can honor our responsibility to do the People’s work.”
It’s a MADHOUSE!

J.K. Rowling’s transphobic rhetoric is forcing Harry Potter fans to wrestle with the series they love and its creator’s prejudice. https://bit.ly/2La4RAr
I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that this is not happening.
I actually believe it may be happening. Some of the younger generation truly believes that if something is said that offends someone, it’s appropriate to purge it, and potentially anything else said/written by that person.
Is she really even “transphobic” or did she just suggest like a reasonable person children shouldn’t get sex changes or play sports as the other sex?
She basically said that people are defined by the genitals they are born with (or she expressed support for someone that said that).
Thus, she must be burned at the stake.
Tomato Tomahto. When you are accused of a made up thing does it really matter what definition of the made up thing they use?
For a certain definition of “transphobic,” yes.
She said that she was a woman and was a bit peeved that a dude who put on a dress last week would tell her that she was womyning wrong.
She needed to roll her eyes about being transplained.
Anyone remember when IGN wasn’t trash?
Rowling’s “rhetoric” amounts to “don’t give your questioning kids puberty blockers or irreversible surgery because they might regret it and your job as a parent is to protect your kids”
This gets labeled transphobic by trans activists (many of whom are cisgenered “allies”)
Others repeat the accusation but don’t offer the evidence behind it or the context of Rowling’s remarks
Before too long, it becomes accepted wisdom that Rowling is a transphobe and now the only question is why aren’t you canceling her too
Try to question it or walk back to the rationale and you too must be a transphobic bigot
Meanwhile a bunch of actual trans people and their opinions get ignored because they’re not on the plantation
this depends on weather you agree or not with K. Nimietz that twitter is the real world.

Scientists estimate that somewhere between 70% and 85% of people need to be immune from the coronavirus before the disease will wane through a process known as herd immunity. Both natural immunity and vaccines can play a role in achieving that goal. But getting there won’t be easy.
“The idea of herd immunity is that after enough people have been infected or vaccinated the virus will start to subside on its own because there’s just not enough susceptible people left to infect,” says Lauren Ancel Meyers, a University of Texas professor who directs its COVID-19 Modeling Consortium.
How did this get past the NPR/CDC

Hey Festus!
Saw your message re: Otrivin further up. Glad I could help! I’ve been using the stuff for almost fifty years, and only when I need it. Sometimes you get slight rebound congestion for overusing it and then stopping for awhile, but I’ve never found it to be a big deal.
After the Otrivin kicks in, I sometimes wait about 15 minutes and then flush my nose out with NeilMed Sinus Rinse (little packets — you can get a box of ’em at Costco for cheap) mixed with bottled water or distilled water. Helps to get rid of the blood-clot-plug thingie that occasionally develops and feels like someone shoved a rock up your nose and then lined your nasal passage with cement.
Thamks again, Friend! Stopped two gushers dead. I’ll try to be careful.
But then-
Another big question is what to make of the people who have already been infected. Jeffrey Shaman, at Columbia University, estimates that figure at 105 million. That’s about 32% of the U.S. population. If those previously exposed people are still immune, that’s a big step toward reaching herd immunity.
Dr. Kari Nadeau at Stanford University says she thinks those people, at least for a time, will be immune and “can be added to the herd immunity number.”
But Dr. Stanley Perlman, a microbiologist and immunologist who studies coronaviruses at the University of Iowa, isn’t ready to make a blanket statement.
“People who have severe disease are probably better protected from being reinfected,” he says. So those people, along with those who have been vaccinated, probably are still immune, one year into the pandemic.
“But what we don’t know is someone who had asymptomatic infection or very very mild infection, how long would their immunity last,” he says.
That’s an important point because a large fraction of the 105 million people thought to have been infected apparently had very mild symptoms or no symptoms at all. Most don’t know they picked up the virus, so they never asked to get tested. About 25 million cases have been identified through testing.
Jumping Jeeziss on an anodized chinesium pogo stick.
Maybe. Just maybe! Those people who had mild or nonexistent symptoms had a sufficiently robust immune system that they were able to fend off the cooties unaided.
Nah, that can’t be right. There’s no starring role for the Foochys and Osterholms of the world in that scenario.
A virus where “a large fraction” of those who’ve had it (I.e., most people who’ve caught it) need a test to even know they have it?
Some fucking disease this is.
One can only hope that the gamble the left has made over blowing this thing up to beyond epic proportions, destroying our economy and doing everything possible to undermine our entire system of government all in a bid to get rid of the Bad Orange Man blows the fuck up, right in their face.
