I’ll keep this brief so you can get back to your holiday drinking.
The new feature in the sky (and lasting until September) is Saturn going into retrograde motion. This makes Saturn difficult to read confidently, as it now causes both beginnings and very, very bad endings. It also take part in our first alignment: Mars-Sol-Saturn (retrograde) = a war breaks out this week. Sorry about that. The second one is much better, we get the Earth aligning with the moon and the sun which signals general benevolence. It’s not ideal, being the sort that leads to a new moon, but I’ll take it. Indeed, this particular new moon shows higher than usual potential for auspicious beginnings, so if you were going to start a business or ask out that hottie, this is as good a time as can be reasonably expected.
Staying on the subject of Saturn (retrograde) it’s still loafing around in Capricorn. Now Capricorn is the sign of wisdom, tempermentality, and fine leather goods. For the past far too many weeks, Saturn has been inhibiting our thinking, making it more ponderous than it should be. Now that it has gone retrograde, we should experience extremes of judgment, both flashes of insight and extremely stupid decisions. Good luck telling the difference. With the new moon in Taurus there is great potential — the new moon is the seed, a thing unrealized, the sign of beginning. But the beginning of what exactly? Unfortunately in this case, the facing sign is “the hidden threat.” Find it, catch it, kill it. Too bad about that whole Saturn retrograde in Capricorn when it comes to correctly identifying what the threat is. Whether it’s spring or because Venus and Mercury are in the sign of the Goat, you will feel… inclinations this week.

Scorpio: 8 of Wands, reversed – Jealousy, internal dispute, stings of conscience
Sagittarius: Page of Wands – Dark young man, faithful, a lover, an envoy, a postman

Aries: Temperance – Economy, frugality, management, accommodation

The resistance shall continue!
…until after September at least.

Interesting combination.

Hmm. Mixed bag, but I like it.
“Libra: Ace of Swords, reversed – Triumph, excess in everything, extremes of love and hate… but all of these things are disastrous.”
“There is chaos on heaven and earth, and the situation is excellent.”
You notice how I didn’t make any “predictions” involving puking, headaches, or sensitivity to light and noise? That’s how you can tell you’re dealing with a professional.
That would have been way too easy.
Sounds legit.
What about those of us who don’t get hangovers? I’ve had one in my life.
So…you do get them.
Decided to bring the girlfriend home something for Cinco. The brewery is doing Churros with chocolate and caramel. They should survive the bike ride home.
Yummy
I bring them home, and she starts into them. Then complains that the box got a bit crushed.
/can’t win.
So… you crushed her box?

I knew it.
Holy shit, where does my wife find these horrid TV choices? Is that Rod Stewart trying to sing CCR’s Rain? This guy is still alive? The last time I saw him on the TV, I’m pretty sure he was wearing an adult diaper under his polyester leisure suit from the 60s. He’s older than Mick Jagger, for crikey sake. You’ll fall off the stage and break a hip, Rod.
Good grief, everyone in that audience could be my mum. Wherever that is, the local hospital had better prepare for an epidemic of hip fractures.
You know they had to pump a sperm whale out of his stomach, right?
After he passed out on stage.
You could have at least linked the evidence.
FWIW, Wikipedia says Jagger was born in July 1943 and Stewart in January 1945.
Kids, the lot of them
Is that your way of telling us to get off your lawn, Fourscore?
Shaka, when the walls fell
Trump and Sanders at Tanagra.
Sanders, his eyes unable to open
Well I’ll be damned. I went out to crimp off the second waterline break on my sprinklers, and either yesterday, or this morning, they came back and repaired both.
Someone listened to their voicemail.

Sounds like a good time to me!
Dammit. The rain knocked out my cable and internet and now I missed the Cal game.

Oh, hamburgers 🙁
*sigh*
On the upside, I’m liking my story again and Miles Davis is helping immensely.
Yay!
Right on. And, yes, that is one of the best albums ever recorded.
. . . that is one of the best albums ever recorded.
This.
So is, or is it not appropriating Cinco De Mayo if I drink American beer, make meat, potatoes, and eggs for breakfast.
Or would I be appropriating if I made potatoes and chorizo and drink Mexican beer.
These new rules have me confused
I’m settling with Modelo on tap and a plate of wings.
Just mentioning it should send you to a camp.
Harsh!
But then again, we must remain vigilant.
Oh shit, I forgot all about that holiday.
I made a frittata with potatoes, onions, and bratwurst.
You probably drink green Bud light and eat cheeseburgers on St. Patty’s Day.
Larf.

Okay, that shit was funny!
LOL!

HAHA! Excellent.
Hilarious! I guess those 12 years of trombone lessons finally paid off.
FireFox, you’re now pissing me off. After putting the fix in place yesterday, today it decided to go back and disable some of my add ons again.
Look, I used you for the add ons, if you kill those, you’re just a memory leaking browser that I had a long affinity for.
I think it periodically will check the certs & disable the extensions;
I had ‘studies’ disabled, so I didn’t pick up the hotfix until just now – turned them back on and it took ~ 20 minutes for the hotfixes to come in.
https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2019/05/04/update-regarding-add-ons-in-firefox/
What a shitshow.
Firefox wouldn’t even open without errors today.
So I am still stuck with Chrome.
As I wrote yesterday, I don’t see the point in having constantly phone home to keep checking if extensions are signed. They are authenticated on install. It’s just stupid to have an application being dependent on some website running properly.
It needs to check the chain of trust for revocations, which I imagine is happening here; I’m guessing they’re treating the expired cert in the same fashion as a revoked cert (they’re both invalid), but I haven’t really dug into it.
“It needs to check the chain of trust for revocations”
How necessary is that?
It’s important – if a cert was compromised, you want to mark it as such and get it untrusted as soon as possible – _especially_ if it’s an intermediate signing cert; otherwise the bad guys can just start signing things (like extensions) that do all any number of terrible things but would be as trusted as any other extension.
FF phones home anyway (eg. to check for updates) so then it could be notified if a cert was compromised, rather than assume they are bad unless told otherwise.
Dear Abby/Zardoz:
What do you think a person’s obligations are as far as travelling for family events that they’re invited to? Suppose this is a person who has a job with a massive workload where time off is not easy to get, and this person also is not awash in cash to spend on plane tickets and hotel rooms in some of the most expensive places in the world such as California and NYC.
Is this person being an inconsiderate dickhead if they decline to attend, or should the other family members understand that not everyone has the time and money to travel all the time?
I vote not being a dickhead. It’s your life to live how you see fit.
Now, if they offered you a ticket, and a place to stay…
At least an offer to defray the costs. But the work thing has to be taken into account as well.
I’d say it kind of depends on the event. Your parents 50th anniversary, you should go. Your brother’s third wedding, you should be able to skip. Once in a generation family gathering, go. Once a year family gathering, skip.

I don’t think that video will generate much sympathy for the driver. What the hell was the kid thinking?
He was trying to run from a minor violation. Not smart. That’s when the murderous thug killed him in cold blood for no good reason. It’s OK, though, because the gunman was black.
They’ll trod out the tried and true “he felt in fear for his life.” We’ll disregard the pulling of a firearm and charging of the vehicle.
They should play this video in every single high school/middle school class room. Don’t step out of line. You are target practice to the man.
Jesus….
I can’t get it to play.
I don’t know why everyone is acting like it’s some big celebration today. Everyone know Cinco de Mayo happens at the end of May.
/never going to get tired of this picture
Just like Oktoberfest celebrations which start in October.
Taurus: 5 of Swords – Degradation, destruction, infamy, reversal, dishonor, loss
So, par for the course. And here I was worried that something bad was going to happen.
“False projects”. Prety much everything I start since I can remember.
At Suthenboy’s house today is Cinco de cut the grass day. Beautiful day for it too.
It snowed here
Because you couldn’t hire some Mexicans?
Still too wet for that here. The grass is growing though, and I’ll need to cut it soon whether it is wet or not.

My work reseeding the lawn is not going to pay off? Meh. I guess I’ll eat another taco and keep sipping this margarita. Happy Cinco de Drink-O!
Does going out for French food on May 5th earn me extra shitlord status?
Are you going to show up on a donkey wearing a sombrero?
Just home from Costco. They had a dozen packs of skirt steak mislabeled at $1.99 per lb. instead of the proper $8.99 per lb.; we’re making skirt steak tonight.
It sounds like the Koreans installed someone on the inside.
I love skirt steak.my go to for beef tacos.
When I was young growing up in South Central Texas grocers could hardly give away skirt steak as the food group fajitas was hardly known.
I now groan at the meat counter when I see current prices.
I blame it on cultural approbation.
I remember when you could get brisket and chicken wings for next to nothing, too.
That’s a truism.
Brisket and wings were sold for the cost of packaging and transportation.
Damn cultural appropriators.
I demand an end to the cultural appropriation of my childhood food groups.
It is amazing, but wings are now more expensive than legs – and sometimes more expensive than breast.
Supply and demand…. how’s that work again?
It’s a beautiful day. I should do something productive. But nah.
It is here, if you’re a duck. Pouring down rain by the buckets full.
Does the Firefox add-on bug prevent you from downloading add-ons, too?
Fuckers can’t fix this?
Stop using Firefox. It drives my crazy because it updates every fucking time you open it. I just use Chrome.
I just started using Brave on my Android. So far, so good. Wife downloaded it to her iPhone. She can use but can’t change default from Safari. That’s interesting to me considering all the money Microsoft was fined over IE.
Haven’t seen any Glibfit articles lately. I’ve had been stuck at 172 lbs. for about a month now. Was, until this morning I finally weighed in at 170 lbs. It’s only 2 lbs, but that’s 60 lbs. total weight loss from a year ago. And most of the loss has been since the first of the year. I’m only 5’8″, so 230 was really obese. I did 5.4 miles this morning walk/jog/run, 70 minutes. Yeah, probably still a little slow, but I’m getting there. Also have reduced my lower back discomfort over the last few days after talking to someone I know who has been running for years. Turns out someone here who said I might be impacting a little on my heels, may have been right. No lower back pain at all right now after at least 1.5 miles running of the 5.4 total. I want to add weights, but for now, the aerobic/weight loss/heart health side of things have been most important to me after having heart problems because of my long term fat couch tater lifestyle. It must be working because I’m completely symptom free now. EKG was normal. Haven’t done another stress test, but likely I can pass that with no problems. Party on Glibfit!
Awesome job, Hyp! Physical fitness is one of the most rewarding things you can do for yourself.
I’ll probably go out for a run today. It’s 66°, a little breezy, and not a cloud in sight. PERFECT.
I just have to wait for my bowels to empty so that I can go all 5 miles without having to make a pit stop. Sometimes there’s no bathroom out there, and nervously dooking in the forest while frantically looking out for witnesses is no fun (hey, I do what I have to do!!)
“and nervously dooking in the forest while frantically looking out for witnesses is no fun”
LOL. Because that’s actually happened to me, more than once. Yeah, I’m a lot more careful about trying to eliminate before running these days.
Congratulations!
Thanks! Like Akira said, it’s most rewarding when you start getting physically fit. I think it was the Bible where I read this quote ‘The life is in the blood’. It’s true, you have to get it moving. I’m driving my wife a little crazy because of my much higher energy. I just have to get her up and moving also. She did injure her knee about a year ago and we’re still working on getting that back to normal.
You’re welcome! Sorry about your wife’s knee. Hopefully it gets back to normal soon.
Thanks, DEG. She’s going to see her ortho doc in Brazil next week. I’m shipping her off down there in a few days. I guess they have a new treatment that’s supposed to be far superior to the cortisone/coricosteroid shots she’s been getting here to treat it. They don’t have to contend with the FDA down there, so sometimes they’ll get new treatments before they’ll get approved here.
Fuck the FDA.
A flaming one with electoshock built in, amirite?
I believe that is the approved FDA treatment.
Congratulations. I ran my first mile (although I did quite a bit of hiking before that) on July 22nd 2009. I was 46.
I only ran because a friend was having a two mile fun run and I wanted to run a little at home before attempting that. I found out that I liked running, but it was sufficiently taxing that I’d count down the driveways while running around the block (3/4 of a mile for one loop), knowing that there were five driveways after my house where I’d be running (slightly) uphill, then I’d turn and run downhill.
Now I’m 56 and run a lot longer and a lot faster.
Awesome, congrats! Get off my… Oh wait, I’m 59, you get to tell me that…
59? No, you get to tell me that.
Uhh, get off my lawn.
solid work !
I’m curious, has anyone tried making a Mule with tequila? I was going to call it a Tijuana Donkey.
Look, you really should not be giving mules tequila. It’s animal abuse! And trying to make it after getting it drunk!? Sick-O perv! Also, ‘Tijuana Donkey’? Cultural appropriation! Guilty, guilty! Sinner! Burn this witch!
Throw in a banana and you have yourself a regular Saturday night
I had a Moscow Mule for the first time around Christmas. I liked it. I couldn’t imagine it with tequila.
“Why are boringly straight women claiming to be lesbians?
Miley Cyrus deciding she’s ‘queer’ is as convincing as me deciding my dog is a goldfish
Hearing straight, woke young women who have had a drunken fumble with another woman at a party describe themselves as ‘lesbian’ or ‘gender queer’ insults me. Their motivation may be a desire to get themselves on one of the many lists of top 100 in the LGBTQQIA+ world, or perhaps because they will appear more interesting. What I do know is that such women almost always end up married to men and having kids, and living a conventional life. Occasionally they will dye their fringe orange, put on a slogan T-shirt, and join a rainbow coalition march in Brighton. But what they won’t do is suffer for their sexuality.
Then there is the latest craze of men deciding they are lesbians, because they claim to be women, such as Alex Drummond, who has retained not only his bushy beard but also his meat and two veg.
Real lesbians commit to the role. There is no running back into the arms of Nigel for us. If the fake lesbians want an authentic experience, perhaps they could persuade their parents to reject them, or have their female friends shy away from a hug as though they are being perved upon?
It is no fun being beaten up in the street for being lesbian or gay. But it is an amazing feeling to know that you have fought for the liberation of younger lesbians who, in the main, won’t ever face the horrors that my friends and I did when we came out. It is an insult to have all and sundry on a list that used to be about same-sex attracted people who formed an alliance in order to fight prejudice and bigotry. To all you attention-seeking narcissists desperate to be included: you are all special, but you are very probably as straight as a die. Get over it.”

I wonder whether non-activist gays who just want to be gay and don’t want to be defined as gay, at least/especially not the way activists define it, miss the closet or the taboo. You’re accepted now. Nobody but a dwindling few retrograde conservatives have a bad word to say about you, and even conservatives don’t hate you for being a faggot the way it used to be, they just don’t want religious people compelled to serve as your wedding officiants. Straight is still the vanilla of sexual orientations, but gay is like a Neapolitan or whatever, it’s not vanilla but it’s not much more exciting.
New York Vanilla.
Sealtest New York Vanilla was a staple in our freezer when I was a kid in Illinois. Delicious with a strong vanilla flavor. I haven’t seen it in years, but I moved to California in 1985, so it may have just been a regional thing.
Discontinued in the 1990s when the company was bought 0it by Kraft.
I miss Dutch Girl.
So does OMWC….
A store called Waldbaum’s made the New Yorkest vanilla ice cream.
Oh goodness, I remember Waldbaum’s, although our family shopped at the Grand Union.
The local Waldbaum’s was in a plaza that also had a Caldor, if you remember them.
Blue Bell is the Beatles ice cream in the hold wide world.
Fight me.
Truthfully if made me put away my homemade ice cream maker decades ago even though the ice cream maker also made cherished childhood memories of we grandkids having to take turns sitting on the bucket full of ice while mammaw turned the crank.
Good times.
Straight is still the vanilla of sexual orientations, but gay is like a Neapolitan or whatever, it’s not vanilla but it’s not much more exciting.
Perhaps that explains some of this upsurge in attention to transgenderism, genderfluidity, etc.
Well-put, Akira.
“Look at me!”
Yes, I’m sensing that myself. Plus, it’s easier to go back than to remove that stupid tatt or wait for your hair to grow out.
Also… older generations who demand “respect” because they claim to have paved the way for the young… FFS shut up already. It’s unseemly.
I’ve never heard anyone say they miss that. I’m just glad to be able to live my life without hiding who I am.
For some reason, your perfectly reasonable attitude isn’t acceptable to some gay people. Makes you think that some people just need the drama in their lives.
Apparently even if you’re gay, that kinda of thinking will get you unpersoned.

Gord got me into this guy’s podcasts. Good discussions (he had one with KDW last year, and there are a lot of other good ones – watching his appearance on Joe Rogan from a couple years ago right now).
And neither will most lesbians. Which is why these people feel free to do it as a lark.
Think of all the lesbians suffering through Lesbian Bed Death, two spinsters sharing a loveless bed with their cats.
It’s not suffering if your libido is already zero.
Well why do you think it’s libido and not libidten?
To ask is to answer.
I failed to quote the best part:
“I recall one such moment. I had met my lezzer friend Bridget in a pub after work, and we were deep in conversation when the inevitable happened. ‘What are two beautiful ladies doing in here on their own?’ slurred Barry, pint in hand and attempting to sit beside us. I pointed out we were not ‘on our own’ on account that we were together, and politely asked him to leave us alone. Soon, we went from ‘beautiful ladies’ to ‘carpet-munching ugly dykes’. I pointed out that if he was the alternative, did he blame us? Every woman in that bar burst out laughing, with several telling me how they wished they could give up men and live happily ever after. One asked me: ‘Are you a lesbian because you never found the right man?’ I replied that if finding the right man was a prerequisite of heterosexuality, we would soon be extinct.”
(things that happened) (this)
“…And the whole pub stood up and clapped for us as Barry was escorted outside by the 250lb musclebound bouncer, Veronica. Then we went back to my apartment for steamy lesbo sex.”
Wasn’t Barry also the name of Lena Dunham’s fictitious Republican rapist?
Now that you mention it I believe it was. Dude gets around…
You might not find the right man, but she miraculously found the right caricature.
Isn’t this the first episode of Bottom?

Just got back from watching Endgame and don’t really get the hate. It seems like a perfectly appropriate wrapup for the experiment that was the MCU.
Of course, there are a lot of hates that I don’t understand, like Glock triggers, mayonnaise, thin crust pizza. Though I do understand the backalsh against IPAs
People love complaining about stuff. Most of the folks I talk to that saw end game loved it. I liked it, just not as much as infinity war. Good close out for this iteration of the mcu.
I’m totally with you on the IPA backlash. People don’t know how to make beer so they just shove a bunch of hops in there. That’s most IPAs except for a scant few.
I didn’t realize there was hate. Meh, I had a couple things I didn’t like, but overall a nice wrap-up before they ruin the MCU.
Right? I thought I was being unique by disliking it. Well, I’ll show them. Now I love it.

They are literally “those that would trade liberty for security will receive neither”.
It is somewhat refreshingly honest though in that at least one of those comments has moved on from “Rethuglikkkans only care about 2A!” to “Rethuglikkkans only care about 1A and 2A!”

Speaking of: I would never even consider being a public school teacher, but if I were, probably the first thing I would teach would be “If you get viscerally angry about hearing an opposing viewpoint/argument, you are functioning at the level of a 4 year-old. You are not using the superior reasoning and mental faculties that are your birthright.”
Then I would bombard them with counterpoints to every prog indoctrination point they’ve been force-fed.
I’m not sure having a visceral reaction to hearing morons argue for the reduction of individual rights is wrong. The superior part is maintaining one’s composure.
“The Second Amendment is only a limitation on the federal government. States may regulate their militias however they wish – including limiting firearms to those who are on duty police or national guard personnel.”
“The Eighth Amendment is only a limitation on the Federal Government. States can draw and quarter you, burn you alive, feed you lions or whatever else they like.”
to lions*… though the other might be equally bad
Along those lines, let’s go with this thought experiment:
Let’s say an individual convicted of murder gets 25 to life. He serves 30ish years and is released. He immediately goes out and slaughters an elementary schooler with a machete. Clearly, we need common sense Cruel and Unusual Punishment control because if we had flayed this guy alive in the public square, he wouldn’t have been able to kill that poor kid.
OJ obviously did it. Clearly, we need common sense Innocent Until Proven Guilty control to make sure it never happens again.
People sometimes hide stolen property in their homes. Clearly we need common sense Unreasonable Search and Seizure control to stop this madness.
I’d make a glib 1A comparison, but it’d be meaningless since all that shit is already happening under the auspices of “hate speech”.
To clarify that’s a quote from the tweets. Not me saying that.
I’m tracking.
The 2A doesn’t mention the federal government. 1A does, but that’s been incorporated to include the states.
Wait, aren’t state rights people racist?
