Did Usher Tip Strippers With Fake Money With His Face Printed On It?
Picture it: You’re a stripper and you’re all dolled up, shakin’ your butt for Usher Raymond of “You Got It Bad,” My Way,” “Yeah!” and dated-Chilli-from-TLC-once fame. Then you get ready to count your night’s earnings you realize that some of the cash was fake. Instead of the portraits of Benjamin Franklin, Ulysses S. Grant, or Alexander Hamilton, you see stoic portraits of Usher.
A Vegas-based dancer, who goes by @beel0ve on Instagram, claims to have received the fake currency—Ushbucks, if you will—after dancing for the singer. Her location is relevant: Usher is embarking on a Vegas residency starting this summer, and recently posted a photo of himself to social media in which he appears to be hitchhiking through the desert… with a suitcase full of Ushbucks. They appear to be the same Ushbucks the dancer received.
Prosecutors: No charges for officer in Capitol riot shooting
WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal prosecutors will not charge a police officer who shot and killed a woman as she climbed through the broken part of a door during the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.
Authorities had considered for months whether criminal charges were appropriate for the Capitol Police officer who fatally shot Ashli Babbitt, a 35-year-old Air Force veteran from San Diego. The Justice Department’s decision, though expected, officially closes out the investigation.
Prosecutors said they had reviewed video of the shooting, along with statements from the officer involved and other officers and witnesses, examined physical evidence from the scene and reviewed the autopsy results.
“Based on that investigation, officials determined that there is insufficient evidence to support a criminal prosecution,” the department said in a statement.
If a white woman is killed in the Capitol Building and no one throws a riot, is she really dead at all?

A Banksy painting from 2009 will be a highlight of Christie’s June sales. The painting, which is from a series of oil paintings that were “vandalized” by the artist is estimated at between £3 million and £5 million ($4 million and $6.9 million).
Called Subject to Availability, the work is a Banksy intervention on version of an 1890 oil painting of Mount Rainier National Park by Albert Bierstadt, who was a member of the Hudson River School. The street artist inserted an asterisk onto his own version of the idyllic landscape painting, which includes the note: “subject to availability for a limited period.” The work, which was included in the artist’s legendary exhibition at Bristol Museum & Art Gallery, will be one of the highlights of the Christie’s 20th century sale on June 30 in London.

“Snort what you will shall be the whole of the law.”
I’ve been telling you guys all of them are super-perverts for years now.
I looked through the entire article and it didn’t mention that Project Veritas had recorded a CNN person saying they made up stuff about Trump, and now they’re going after Gaetz. Huh.
And both women are former minors, so….
Every person you’ve ever slept with was a small child at some point, you monster!
The network that was caught on camera saying they are spreading propaganda about this story – that CNN?
Something something the ‘Big Lie’…
Look, this came from highly reliable anonymous sources that nobody else can verify. Totally not made up.
Other propaganda networks can verify the source. What more do you need?
My thoughts exactly.
A reputable organization would refrain from running any more stories on Gaetz until they could prove the Project Veritas was full of shit.
Sadly too few people know that the CNN guy was caught admitting to being a propaganda arm of the Democratic party and won’t realize that CNN cannot be trusted at all on this topic.
So, I’m assuming they were also familiar faces at the parties. Gangbang groupies or pros?
That’s not what you’re supposed to say!
So, pro. NTTAWWT.

THAT’S how you develop a clientele!

Lol. Is there a source that says this that didn’t literally admit to making shit up
about gaetz?
This is an interesting case study of how our shitty news system works. CNN makes up a story, and other sites repeat it. Now we have multiple sites reporting the same story. So it must be credible!
Didnt we just see a story where Project Veritas caught a CNN editor admitting that every word they said about Trump and now every word said about Gaetz is an outright lie? The rest of the outlets, I am looking at you Daily Beast, are no better.
I am not sure why we arent seeing a flood of libel suits.
Did you see that story on CNN? Then no, it wasn’t from a credible news source. I’d be tempted to say “QED” but it’s almost more like Q’ed.

Speaking of Jan-6, a day that will live in infamy, this makes my blood boil.
Joe Biden’s Justice Department wants to keep Richard Barnett in jail—indefinitely.
The Arkansas man, photographed showboating inside House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office on January 6, has been behind bars for more than three months. Barnett occupied Pelosi’s office for six whole minutes; he absconded with a piece of mail and left her a note that read “Nancy, Bigo was here, you Bitch.” …
He was taken into custody on January 8 and charged with trespassing, disorderly conduct, and possession of a “deadly or dangerous weapon,” to wit, a walking stick that also can be used as a stun gun. He never used it.
A local judge authorized Barnett’s conditional release a week later but federal prosecutors, as they’ve done in many cases, immediately appealed to the chief judge of the D.C. district court, which is handling every Capitol breach case, to deny Barnett’s release.
“Political prisoners” is something we used to make fun of other countries for.
Gitmo on the Potomac.
“Upon his return home, Barnett met with FBI investigators without an attorney present, allowed for a search of his home, and turned himself in.”
And…done. Why the fuck would you allow that.
What a damn farce that is and Ry said it correctly…political prisoner at this point; he should seek asylum.
a “deadly or dangerous weapon,” to wit, a walking stick that also can be used as a stun gun
Remember, kids, a cop’s taser non-lethal. Apparently, one owned by a citizen is deadly or dangerous.
Oh, the walking stick? Well, if possessing one of those is a felony, then this country has millions of “armed” felons roaming the halls of nursing homes, retirement communities, and even in public spaces!
Yeah I was confused on that. Is it a walking stick with a stun-gun built in or are they saying the walking stick itself, can ‘stun’ someone.
One of these.
So a walking stick that can double as a self-defense device that is legal and in use throughout?
Sure, and baseball bats are legal too but if you get caught trespassing/breaking and entering with one I assume the charges will be harsher.

“Limited” – only some stores were looted.
“Sporadic” – after the good stuff was taken, the looting stopped.

In a five-minute video from the left-wing group Now This, Alyssa Milano and Chelsea Handler voiced their support for reparations by claiming it will rectify the sins of the past.
“Silence is not an option and it’s certainly not a cure. If President Biden and Congress are serious about moving the country froward, then they have to get serous on federal action on reparations,” Milano said. …
“Failure to atone for the pain that white supremacy has caused and is still causing creates space for those violent white supremacist ideologies to foster [sic] and grow,” she said. “White supremacist extremism is on the rise and refusing to talk about its root — slavery — will not solve anything.”
“White-supremacist ideologies” such as personal responsibility, work-ethic and republican government?
Why does the govt have to be involved?
Those two fierce women are completely capable of forming their own charity, collecting money from ex-slaveholders and distributing it to deserving ex-slaves. They don’t need Big Daddy in DC to hold their hands.

Also it was Euell Gibbons and his famous book was Stalking the Wild Asparagus.
My mom was a devotee of his and when we lived on the farm she brought us out on a lot of walks to try finding wild foods. I remember milkweed tea not being too bad. The worst was trying to make a flour out of cattail roots.
It was the ’70s and a lot of crazies were trying to get back to nature.

Of late, the union has been pissing away dues on sending union-branded crap to members.
Last time it was a muzzle with a very noticable “Made in China” label. I was not happy at that.
Today some more crap with the union branding on it showed up. I noticed that the new muzzle had a much smaller and less pronounced logo, and no country of origin tag. The lanyard had no country of origin tag, nor anything etched in the steel. The tote bag had “Made in the USA” impressed into the top edge over and over again.
I wonder if anyone complained about the slave labor muzzle from the first time…

Her office released a statement saying she ‘tolerated’ the procedure ‘well’, but didn’t release any further details and wouldn’t say why the president went with her.”

Under Minnesota law, a second-degree-murder charge is filed when a person is accused of causing another person’s death through negligence that created an unreasonable risk, and of consciously taking the chance of causing severe injury or death.
If convicted, Potter faces up to 10 years in prison and a $20,000 fine. ”

I’d rather postpone the upcoming race war until after I’ve checked out.
“…40 million black descendants receive trillions in government payments”
Bullshit. The bureaucracy will soak up most of it. The so-called recipients will see a few pennies on the dollar and nothing will change.
Oh, something will change. This will become a line item in every budget.
Do Democrats not realize how incredibly unpopular this slate of ideas is?
70% of Democrats are against reparations. Of Democrats.
60% of Democrats favor voter id. Of Democrats.
The majority of Democrats think Biden’s border policy is a disaster.
…
I mean these people have vastly overestimated their mandate. This has to cost them next election right? Right?!
You think they are looking at polls numbers right now? They are ramming this through and probably will use reconciliation to do it.
They are trying to pass shit that even their own party hates though. It seems to lack strategy.
Once passed, its entrenched. That isn’t lack of strategy. They know once it is on the books, it will take mountains to remove it.
I mean if the strategy is to have really shitty permanent laws that no one likes then yes. If the strategy is to stay in power no. Unless you feel the democrats are really going to entrench themselves in power permanently this time…. a mistake made over and over again throughout history.
Are you serious?
All it will do is give the GOP an easy slogan and even easier route to rescind the bills.
Do I have to remind you how the GOP used the repeal of Obamacare to take over the House and Senate. Or the dancing in the streets when the GOP passed the bill to repeal Obamacare?
^^^ This. I would be on your side with this Urthona if it were 20 years ago, but recent history shows this is the strategy to go with. Its like hockey (or other sports). I hate the pure open game that it is now, but nothing is going to change that. I grew up with clutch and grab and grind it out in the corners, throw a few blows. Just isn’t the game now.
Indeed Republicans did easily win the election though.
I’m not arguing that passing shitty laws is not a good strategy for having permanently shitty laws.

More anti-Asian violence in Minnesoda
Ooops, I meant anti-invasive violence. Several years ago the Minnesoda legislature decreed that Asian carp would henceforth be referred to as Invasive carp because they didn’t want to be racist against Asians. Seriously.
Well the fuckers are speciest as all get out. Those poor carp should be free to gambol the waters of this great land and not be treated as second class fish.
I’m telling you, once people taste smoked carp, there won’t be a problem eradicating them.
I think the problem with Asian carp is getting them. They don’t bite on corn or doughballs, so you really can’t fish for them. Archery really isn’t all that effective.
I remember reading an article in the ’90s about a study the Wisconsin DNR did on carp. Their conclusion was any action that would effectively kill carp would kill off every other species of fish first.
In one experiment they put carp in a tank and starved them. The carp could reliably lose 80% of their mass and recover if you started feeding them again.
Scorched earth. Poison the waterways so that nothing can live in them.
Around here they catch them with gill nets. The carp are family large fish so if your net is the right size you will catch primarily carp and not other fish. That method is effective. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to put a dent in the carp population. The best population control I have seen was hurricane Laura. My bayou had huge rafts of tens of thousands of dead carp after she passed through.
A bunch of guys I have known for 20+ years formed “Club Carp” and we’d spend weekends down on the Mississippi shore fishing for golden carp.
Great time. Lots of drinking (and some smoking), laughing and eating. To get to Carp Haven, you had to walk through a bunch of trails and wade through one backwater to get there.
We don’t do it so much anymore. We’ve all slowed down too much. Carp Haven was also destroyed when the moved the bridge that was nearby. Changed the currents completely. Also the Park Board spent a shit ton of money building paved bike trails that went right down to our old secret spot.
Hard to engage in debauchery when sissy bikers in their spandex and helmets keep riding by.
How do you know that? Did you ever invite any of them to join you?
They were way too civilized. The bikers had wheels on their contraptions. WHEELZ!
Far too technically advanced to fit in with carp fishermen. Our most advanced technology was in coming up with new and fancier gaffs. After about 5 years of semi-serious gaff injuries to lower legs we finally gave up on them and just landed them on the beach.
Here’s an example of the intellectual capabilities of carp fishermen:
We used to use a setup where we used a y-swivel to tie on one regular hook and one treble hook. The regular hook would be baited with corn and the treble hook would be encased in a dough ball or other stink bait. 95% of the time the carp would bite on the corn. The dough ball was mostly to stink up the water and attract the carp.
Anyhow, one guy who was under the influence kept complaining because his dough balls kept getting washed off the hook. We told him it was because his dough balls were too wet when he was rolling it onto the treble hook. He needed to dry out his dough mixture more.
At first the guy told us we were full of shit, but after a few more lost dough balls he came around. So he rolled another dough ball onto his hook and asked us what we thought. We told him it was better, but still too wet.
At that point, he decided that rolling another doughball on was too much work, so he staggered over to the bonfire we had going and dangled his rig over the fire intending to let the heat dry out he doughball some more.
Of course, the only thing that happened was his monofilament instantly melted and his entire rig (hooks, swivels, sinkers, etc.) dropped right into the middle of the fire. The rest of us laughed ourselves sick for hours. The poor guy never lived that down.
So stupid and yet there is stupid crap going on that’s more rage-inducing than face-palming like this one.
What a world.
Second degree manslaughter for the cop who killed the Brooklyn Center guy
Sounds about right.
The howler from the story, though comes from the lawyer for the victim’s family:
So I feel for the family. I agree that an officer, trained, should know the difference…but I ask them one simple question: Have they ever grabbed something, done anything, under stress, that was the wrong object? She still should be charged, but I don’t think that was intentional at all IMO. They can fuck off cause of that statement until otherwise.
So yeah, we’re just gonna completely ignore that he had an outstanding warrant and resisting arrest itself is a crime. Sure.
Their statement, in a just world would be “This was an unlawful use of force”. The end. Cause that is what it was. The rest, is emotional heart string clap to a media that they know is on their side to parrot.
The fucked up part was that they were breaking in a rookie cop. You can see that the rookie a) doesn’t put himself between the guy and the door of the car and then was having a tough time getting the cuffs on.
Everything went bad when she moved in to help the rookie cuff the guy. That is when the guy makes a break for it. The rookie is completely flummoxed and doesn’t grab him. All the rookie does is get in the way. The shooter has to go from trying to help a rookie out, to trying to stop a fleeing perp. So yeah, she wasn’t even starting from the usual mindset of a traffic stop.
I’m not excusing her. She killed a guy because of a really stupid mistake.
I’m trying to point out that anyone who tries to ascribe the events to malice is full of shit.
…is full of shit.
Over/under on what percentage of the population that is these days?
I’m not. He’s dead because he decided to resist arrest and fight 3 cops.
Some mistakes and bad luck along the way, but he set it off.
I’ll let the legal-eagles hash this out but I am skeptical of the charge/case. I need more context before providing an opinion.
Kim Potter, the Minnesota police officer who, according to Brooklyn Center police officials, fired her gun instead of a taser during a traffic stop on Sunday, will be charged with second-degree manslaughter for the death of Daunte Wright, local authorities announced on Wednesday morning.
Potter, 48, was one of the Brooklyn Center Police Department officers present when authorities were arresting Wright. The 20-year-old was fatally shot after Wright made an apparent attempt to resist arrest, according to bodycam footage of the altercation.
She’s the former local cop union president – where’s that lard-ass motherfucker cop union guy that’s always defending the latest abuse? Did he finally choke to death on a donut?
Bob Kroll. He retired in January. Only 20 years too late.
Of course, the local BLM activists made him almost a sympathetic figure when they drove out to his house and picketed in front of it threatening to burn the neighborhood down.
This was the one I have the enduring mental image of – defending the cop who shot the mental health assistant dealing with the autistic dude.
It is amazing that cops keep electing the worst caricatures to represent them and their union.
You can only elect people who run for the office.
I served one term as a shop steward, and was too disgusted to do it again.

I served one term as a shop steward, and was too disgusted to do it again.
I didn’t make it one term. I quit and took another job. My GM told me, “By union rules, I can give you thirty days off without pay to think about it.” If I didn’t like working midnight shift for $5/Hr. more, I could come back. No problem. That made me feel good actually.

“Pelosi says she would have put up a fight against Capitol mob: ‘I’m a street fighter’
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) says in a new interview that she would have put up a fight had she encountered rioters at the Capitol on Jan. 6.
“Well, I’m pretty tough. I’m a street fighter,” Pelosi told USA Today while acknowledging that some rioters intended to harm her. “They would have had a battle on their hands.”
Pelosi joked that she had a weapon on her in the form of her stilettos.

Show your work.
CNN reported it so its pure truth.
Wait, I thought the rioters were super duper scary and came within a hair’s breadth of murdering everyone in congress. But now we find out they could have been taken down by an 80yo woman?
Sorry, “insurrectionists”, not rioters.
Not only an 80 year old woman, but one that is probably on more drugs than a roadie at a Van Halen concert.
I believe her. In fact, I am so confident that she can handle anything that comes up that I think we can let the Natl Guard go home AND defund the Capitol Police.
Which one? She’s sure not Chun-Li.

Local news at its best: YOUNG PEOPLE ARE GETTING RONA AND HOSPITALIZED
The story is one guy in a exurban hospital. Docs make a lot of claims “without substantiation”. The teaser that 70% of the people in the hospital are young turns out to be based on a definition of “under 65” == “young”.
Oh and it ends with young sick guy regretting that he didn’t get vaccinated earlier and imploring others to wear masks:
Machinist and my guess doesn’t follow his own PPE standards.
Sorry, cbslocal, I’m allergic to propaganda now. Thanks for your contribution to the effort, though.
I, for one, welcome our woke, neo-fascist overlords.
Hundreds of companies and executives released a letter on Wednesday condemning legislation that restricts “any eligible voter from having an equal and fair opportunity to cast a ballot,” per the New York Times.
It’s the most concerted action yet by big business in opposition to GOP-sponsored bills at the state level that limit mail-in ballots, implement new voter ID requirements and slash registration options, among other measures.
Critics say the restrictions will disproportionately impact voters of color.
Advocates of the bills have said they will secure the vote, and in some instances have cited former President Trump’s baseless allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 elections.
The signatories of the letter, which will appear in advertisements taking up two full pages in Wednesday’s New York Times and Washington Post, include General Motors, Netflix, Starbucks, Amazon, BlackRock, Google and Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett, among others.
All companies that won’t hire you and issue you a single paycheck without you providing multiple forms of ID.
Yep, telling my kids when they apply to a job and they are asked for ID just tell them you don’t have one. Fuck em.
Prepping your kids for a life on the dole eh?
Can’t beat em, get what you can before it all comes down.

There’s a lot of fluff on that list of signatories. I don’t think Rashida Jones or Joaquin Phoenix count as executives.
Wait… so people aren’t corporations?
And I’m sure they’ve both been Executive Producers on something… CHECKMATE!
Yeah I mentioned that this morning? Or maybe yesterday. Seems corporations are now en vogue.
“voters of color”
I think if someone says that to me in earnest, I might reflexively punch them in the face.
I’m obviously tiring of the bullshit.
Rose Namajunas stands by anti-communism comments ahead of Zhang Weili fight
“UFC strawweight contender Rose Namajunas said she doesn’t regret saying her opposition to communism is at least part of her motivation for her April 24 fight against champion Zhang Weili at UFC 261.”
Maybe I’m reading this wrong, but it seems like this ESPN writer is hinting that they believe Namajunas should apologize for being anti-communist.
Yes
How can the paint thinner drinking Sconnies get so much more stuff right than us residents of the Brainpower State?
Poor Gov Evers must have massive dial envy of King Walz and his powers.
The superintendent for White Bear Lake Area Schools says racist and threatening messages sent to students of color over social media were a hoax.
The real surprise is that they admitted it was a hoax.
They admit cause there is no punishment for it. This article is all that will happen.
Look, it started a conversation!
Only a nazi white supremacist would be against starting a conversation about racism.
Forgot to add: my neighborhood is full of nazis and degens. No one move here….shit Cali already did. My acres in the middle of nowhere is not going to be available by the time I am ready to go.
“There is more work to do herp derp…”
Yeah, we’ve seen this one before.
Reposting from Joemala comments:
In order to help you wipe today’s SugarFree horror show from your brain, I will be hosting a midweek Filed-My-Corporate-and-Personal-Taxes-And-Don’t-Owe-Anything-Party-Zoom tonight.
1900 Glibtime, 2000 Eastern, 1800 Mountain, 1700 Arizona and Pacific (or 8 p.m. Eastern for you wacky 12-hour folks).
Dont owe anything or dont owe anything additional?
Now this is surprising. Nate Silver is even acknowledging that Fauci is gaslighting us.
Looking back to Ozy’s article and the comment that truths eventually surface…
Please oh please let that be true. I’ve almost given up hope that the bastards that lead these lockdowns will ever received any of the scorn they richly deserve.
Sometimes messaging is so bad that even the indoctrinated can discern bullshit. When you go from “Don’t go outside unless its a place we approve of” to “You can go outside, but be aware of places we don’t approve of” to “Yeah I know you took this shot that we said you should, but still don’t go places we don’t approve of”…starts to eat away at peoples’ biases.
If within the year Fauci became an object of ridicule and derision I would be much pleased. Time for that pendulum to swing.
Nah he has a bobblehead and a comic (I think) so he is set for life as the savior of mankind
yes i read that a couple days ago and lol’ed.
Maybe Fauci is related to this gal and really, really doesn’t want to get together with her and his family?
*browses thru twatter feed *
She really is that dumb.
Good to know Obama made such a statement when Trump announced getting the troops out by May….
After nearly two decades in Afghanistan, it’s time to recognize that we have accomplished all that we can militarily, and bring our remaining troops home. I support @POTUS
’s bold leadership in building our nation at home and restoring our standing around the world.
Oh ya, he didn’t. Fuck I hate our politicians.
I love how the media reported this as Biden announcing he’s leaving Afghanistan when all he did was push back Trump’s withdrawal date.
It reminds me of giving Obama credit for pulling troops from Iraq when it just followed the Bush timeline and after he tried to extend it.
Well, we have the attention span of 15 seconds, so its not hard to do.
Uffda. Sure seems like going to a private school is no guarantee that you won’t be subjected to a bunch of craziness.
To be honest, I’m not all that sympathetic to the teacher who wrote this. I would have been gone about 15 minutes into my first day at that school. Who puts up with that shit?
We just moved the window. Before teacher would flag “quiet kids” or “unruly kids”.
Rich people in Manhattan, nuff said.
People who are absolutely mired in self-loathing.
Is it *themselves* they loathe, though?
Having lived in manhattan for quite awhile i believe they just love moral superiority.
See the Hoffer quote below
You mean the appearance of moral superiority? Actual moral superiority involves putting others above yourself. Realizing that the world was rocking along just fine long before you were born and will keep doing so long after you are gone is something they cant face.
Given that it is always projection with them all of the time they simply turn their scorn on you, so yeah, it is themselves.
I have a relative with borderline personality disorder whom I have seen have a few ‘breaks’ under pressure and trust me when I say it is a sight to behold. A giant, neon lit sign couldn’t make it more obvious. I am talking curl up in a fetal position, overly emotional, foaming at the mouth, tearful ranting about how the world is against them while I think ” You are describing yourself and nothing you are saying about them is true.”
And loving it
“ The impression somehow prevails that the true believer, particularly the religious individual, is a humble person. The truth is the surrendering and humbling of the self breed pride and arrogance. The true believer is apt to see himself as one of the chosen, the salt of the earth, the light of the world, a prince disguised in meekness, who is destined to inherit the earth and the kingdom of heaven too. He who is not of his faith is evil; he who will not listen will perish.” -Hoffer
That’s pretty close. Only I think these people are looking for their reward in this life. For people going to these elite schools, the targets of their guilt are effectively non-entities. Nobody is going to confuse the statuses of a Fortune 500 exec’s daughter or a senior investment banker’s son with that of the maid’s or the doorman’s kids. It’s not “white people” they’re eager to damn. It’s “lesser white people”. And, yes, they’ll be happy to designate uppity minorities as “white adjacent”.
Quick question….
“To give a little background on myself, I served for 18 years with the United States Navy as a Navy SEAL. ”
If you read that, would you think…who throws out they were a Navy SEAL?
A lot of them do.
It’s their calling card.
He is running for board for our HOA. I just was curious if that is common.
Unfortunately, yes.
And most people eat it up.
And it’s an almost foolproof way of getting a speaking fee at most companies. VPs wet their panties when you say “Navy SEAL”
“Got stuck in a rut then?”
What kind of retarded squid quits after 18 years?
Pushed out? Didn’t make rank? Said ‘fuck it?’ Medically retired is my guess.
Might have been a cook in his first tour. Then applied to BUDS and was accepted later.
+1 birthday cake
I had an uncle that was a SEAL. He never talked about it, never told anyone. Sterling guy and the world is a worse place now that he is gone.
Anyone that goes around bragging about that is someone you should say “Oh, look at the time.” and back out of the room.
…to whom you should say…
Ugh. When it takes me a few seconds to refocus when looking from screen to keyboard that should be a clue that I have had one too many vodkas and it is time to quit shitposting and lay down for a bit.
My wife has an uncle that just passed that was a Green Beret. What we know of that he did is that he was a Green Beret. That is it. Nothing more, nothing less. He never touted his admission into that elite group, when people asked outside the family what his military service was like or what he did it was “I was a soldier”.
That is the appropriate response. Those who crow about their service when it isn’t relevant always bring to mind the image of the Miles Gloriosus.
That’s not to say there’s never a time to talk about it, or that it should be a secret, but it is too often brought up by some people.
Reminds me of a hockey coach I had. Worked at Skunkworks, and given timeframe, my best guess is the B2 or some of the drones we have today that are public…he’d just tell us hockey kids that he had to go away on a project (be flown to Groom Lake most likely). We coaxed the Skunkworks bit out of his son that played on the team – so could all be a lie and he was cheating on his wife.
I’ve lived in Southeast Virginia and San Diego for almost my entire life. I’ve met many SEALs that couldn’t shut up about it.
And a few who were quite reserved with a not so small arsenal of weapons.
That reminds me. Work is over and I don’t have a beverage in front of me.
Jesse Ventura?
Then the press goes nuts fact checking that he was really only a Underwater Demolitions Team member and his a big liar. They ignore that he graduated from the same BUDS course that the SEALS use now.
Basically he went through just before they switched from UDT to SEALS, but that is enough for the detractors to give him 4 pinnocios.
In my experience the people who tell you they were SEALs usually aren’t.
^^This, usually SEAL adjacent.
Used to be a lot of Green Berets in the Army like that as well.
Went to school with a guy who was a Green Beret… Chaplain’s Assistant.
He didn’t try to pretend, but I ran into number who did.
Too Local News Lazy Edition: HB 220 has its Senate committee hearing
A bill to expand the rights of those who refuse to get vaccinations sparked a vigorous debate before a state Senate committee Wednesday.
Parent Lisa Dean urged the Senate Health and Human Services Committee to embrace the bill for individuals to be free from “threat or compulsion” to accept any “medical intervention, including immunization.”
“An injection can’t ever be taken back, ever. We know existing conditions. We know our health better than the government,” Dean told the Senate Health and Human Services Committee.
“New Hampshire is Live Free or Die, not Live Free, Inject and Die.”
Dr. Gary Sobelson, a family physician in Concord, said the New Hampshire Medical Society strongly opposed this bill and warned it would erode trust in vaccines.
“The breadth of this bill, in and of itself, should concern all of you,” Sobelson said.
“This will create a major limitation on our ability to manage a crisis.”
Quite telling. The person is saying we just don’t want to be forced into taking it and the push-back is “We can’t control you otherwise”, in not-so-many words.
Was going to say the same thing.
With a heaping helping of “You’re too stupid to make your own decisions”.
This so much. Their relentless insistence makes me so much more suspicious. They already hate me, why would they care if I die?
“….our ability to manage a crisis.”
Look cocksucker, I saw your ability up close and personal after Katrina. It is impossible to erode your credibility with regards to managing a crisis. You don’t have any because everything you do makes the crisis worse. Now go eat a bag of dicks.
Suthen, this is a safe space. You don’t need to be so reserved. You can trust us and tell us what you really think.
I tend to get more reserved when I have been drinking.
That isn’t how that works…but I applaud you
If the smart people get a vaccine that works, why are they worried if the dumb people refuse to get The Cure?
Those knuckle draggers will drop like flies because they didn’t listen to all the smart people. Isn’t that a good thing?
No, because they think you’re going to kill their grandma first.
Try to forcefully vaccinate my kids and it won’t be their grandma that dies first.
“expand the rights”
Excuse me?
Resisting medical treatment by force is an expansion of rights?
I believe they are talking about making anti-vaxxers added to the list of people private businesses can’t legally discriminate against. I.e. giving them rights people who don’t want to wear shirts don’t have.
I would venture that it won’t be the businesses pushing to exclude the non-vaccinated ( except perhaps cruise ships) but the government.
I enthusiastically support any expansion of that category.
Businesses can reserve the right to refuse service to anyone, at their discretion. Or, they can be open to everyone. But you don’t get to have it both ways, and you don’t get to have the state do your discriminating for you.
The category that the state forces you to serve? I thought ‘Bake the cake’ was a bad thing.
That’s a different bill, which I think died.
Yeah…government expands and contracts rights because government doles them out. They are not inalienable.
I keep saying that we are a permission based society and they keep trying to make it even more so.
It’s like when they take away other natural rights then sell them back to you with a license. You’ll love it.
Resisting
medical treatmentbeing experimented on by force is an expansion of rights?Sure is! You have no rights, unless given them. So… privileges really.

Dr. Seuss was cancelled for this horseshit.
Does Hope show her titties in some made for Cinemax softcore like the author?
Embrace of the Vapid
Reading the comments makes me wish for a true human life ending plaque.
Cues the Histerical Channel’s, “Life After People”. For some reason I loved that repetitive drivel. Especially the part where the descendants of house cats take over the skyscrapers for a brief time.
No, he wasn’t, the Seuss estate chose to stop publishing some titles.
OTOH, if copyright terms were as short as they were in the Founding era, anyone could publish Seuss stuff without the estate’s permission.
Oh yeah, IT laws are a shit show.
That choice didn’t happen in a vacuum.
No choice does, they weren’t forced by the gov’t and I hadn’t even heard of any groups protesting them, if a company all on it’s own sway to current cultural trends I can’t be arsed to give two fucks.
Anyone notice that the few tiny grow boxes these people plant wouldn’t feed anyone? When people had to plant enough to feed themselves the phrase “in the pea patch” alluded to working your ass off most of the day. Planting 5 each of various veggies might feed you for a day or two after a couple of months after they are planted.
Growing up we did mostly feed ourselves from what we grew. That meant every day plucking weeds and picking bugs. We ate well but it was not easy. Call me a skeptic but I doubt Alysa is up to the task.
The people pushing ‘go green’ mean you should go green. They are going to keep going ‘Whole Foods’.
The only place I can get doge is Robinhood and I do not want to do business with them. #decisions
Have you checked Kraken?
Does not service USA.
Today I discovered Accutane is the government gas can mandate of the pharmaceutical world. Holy shit you’d think I was buying weapons grade plutonium, the amount of crap I had to go through. There is literally a 4 step process to opening a single pill and just like the gas can it doesn’t work resulting in the pill shooting out of the package across the room.
They are still making that stuff? I thought it proved to be a problem and they quit with it.
Yup turned out it wasn’t as bad as they thought… Except for pregnant women. I had to sign a pledge saying I wouldn’t get pregnant… I’m a man.
Men can get pregnant too!!
Eating a 36oz ribeye all by yourself in a contest is not the same thing.
Weird… that drug came up in a mystery novel I read a couple weeks ago.
