Thursday Afternoon Links

Well, guys, I hate to link and run, but I got a hall pass to the local beer bar tonight, and it starts at 3:00 Cis-Heterol Shitlord Time. So, please enjoy and understand, I’m mailing them in.

I have to think that Russian pilots spend a lot of time practicing a no-engine belly landing. Still, we confer Hero of the Glibertariat upon the pilot. STEVE SMITH will be by to deliver his prize.

Follow up on the gravity as entropic force. As I understand it, this has been used to successfully predict the visible mass of about 50 galaxies as well as being the basis of the article about dark matter free calculation of spiral gravity rotational velocity.

Good news in the war on the White Plague.

I’m not saying its aliens, but...

 

Bring your own tunes!

      What’s this from?

      1. Tundra

        God.

      2. The Sign of the Cross. Cecil B. DeMille wanted to show Christian virtue triumphing over Roman vice, so he put as much vice in the movie as he could get away with.

        1. Enough About Palin

          Thanks, but Tundra’s reply is much more succinct.

          1. Yeah, but if you want to see the movie for yourself, now you know where to look.

            It’s got lesbian dancing, a torture scene where it looks like at least one of the parties is getting off on it, human and animal sacrifice, and oh so much more.

    “dark matter free calculation of spiral gravity rotational velocity”

    You talk like a fag.

    1. J. Frank Parnell

      That explains the condition of Uranus.

      1. How can you joke about a topic of such gravity?

    Good afternoon, everyone. I’ve been spending less time here the past few weeks, but have been impressed by the creative outpourings of the new contributors and those who have returned from sabbatical.

      Hmph….no dedication

    “‘Trump’s Muslim ban is what Israel is implementing’: Ilhan Omar slams Netanyahu from banning her and Rashida Tlaib from visiting – hours after the president tweets the radical Democrats ‘hate all Jews’”

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7360673/Trump-demands-Ilhan-Omar-Rashida-Tlaib-banned-entering-Israel.html

    I think Israel was wrong not letting them in the country. They should have shot them.

    1. The Other Kevin

      So Trump is a puppet of Putin, and Netanyahu is a puppet of Trump? Is it puppets all the way down?

      1. invisible finger

        Are the Dems Wayland Flowers or Madame?

      2. Count Potato

        I thought (((they))) controlled the US, not the other way around?

    2. So BDS is OK, but the other way around isn’t?

      1. leon

        Whenever I read BDS I think they are talking about kinky sex

        1. A Leap at the Wheel

          When I see BDS, I also think of people locked into dark dungeons, covered in their own bodily fluids, inflicting pain on themselves and those around them just for self gratification.

          Of course, I am thinking about the Berkeley Software Distribution.

            **BSD is a registered trademark of UUnet Technologies, Inc

            Wtf?

          3. A Leap at the Wheel

            Its a joke. BSD is mired in a bunch of, well, BSD fanciers who incant incorrect trademark notices like they are sovereign citizens getting pulled over with a lizard in their yoga pants.

          4. You bastard. I did not want the mental image of a BSD neckbeard in yoga pants.

          5. leon

            That is pretty funny

          6. Gustave Lytton

            Ok, I guess I’ve been out of it for a long time.

            Still prefer BSD style over SVR4, even though it seems to have triumphed. Also, no neck beard or yoga pants.

          7. leon

          9. You say “Bodily Fluids”. It’s just Sweat. One Fluid, not plural.

            And it’s not a dungeon, it’s a server room.

          10. A Leap at the Wheel

            Yeah. Sure. There are no BSD fanciers with a little piddle of pee on their pleated trousers and black, Velcro New Balance sneakers.

            Also if we classify Cool Ranch Doritos powder as a bodily fluid that’s three.

      2. Rebel Scum

        Now you’re getting it!

    3. Rufus the Monocled

      These two are something else.

    4. A Leap at the Wheel

      Why did Netanyahu need to ban them? I’ve been informed that Jewish men named Benjaim could have used the powers of hypnosis to make the world do whatever they want. I forget who told me that.

        “Why won’t these dirty rodent, hooked nose Jews sucking all their Benjamins let me into their shitty country they occupy and stole from innocent Palestinians?”

        /Bambi eyes.

      2. Enough About Palin

        It’s because of her FGM.

    Storms rolled through and now we have no phone or Internet at the office. I can’t even get a CAD license for some reason. Might be a good day to leave early even though I typically leave about this time on Fridays as well.

      which cad?

        Trump.

    I got a hall pass to the local beer bar tonight, and it starts at 3:00

    Whatever you do, don’t mention the putsch.

      Ugh, get some more tatts, dude. *barf*

  11. Under my “No Impulse Buys” policy, I’m trying to figure out the best option for dealing with my NAS.

    One of four disks in a RAID 10 has died. The cheapest option would be to buy a same-sized replacement disk and swap out only the failed disk. That leaves me wondering about the time to next failure.

    Since I have made a backup, An alternative option would be to replace all four disks with higher capacity models, since I’m currently running with less NAS space than my desktop has internal disk.

    The most extravant option would be to replace the whole NAS with one with more bays.

    Opinions?

    1. leon

      Put it in the cloud / looks for another pot to stir.

      1. A Leap at the Wheel

        If USC doesn’t have off-site backup, I’ll eat my data-archiving gloves.

        1. I don’t have the budget of the University of South Carolina, nor the bandwidth.

          1. slumbrew

            Restic + Backblaze

            I’ve been doing a daily snapshot since about January, quite happy – one desktop snapshot, one snapshot of may NAS.

            I don’t have that much data, so only ~ $1.50/mo. but their prices are quite reasonable.

        2. Sean

          ~10 years ago, at work, I was very diligent about creating back up copies of important stuff onto DVDs. Then our building burned down. Store copies off site was the lesson I learned that day.

          1. invisible finger

            So you work at Universal.

    2. A Leap at the Wheel

      What data are you storing? The only thing we store any more are my wife’s photos and while we could have upgraded when my last NAS died, we realized it wasn’t worth it to buy more than 2 bays for our use.

      1. Data I don’t have to spend the next two decades re-scouring the internet to get back. Some of those sources aren’t even around, and I’m not confident they got archived.

        It also holds a backup of my work, but I have multiple backups of that.

        1. A Leap at the Wheel

          What I mean is, what’s your growth like? I used to generate about a quarter of a terabyte a year of random shit (back when that meant something) , and I’m down close to 0 now.

          I’m not suggesting you get rid of anything. That’s not the groknard way.

          1. I honestly haven’t been tracking, and every so often I review the high-volume folders to see if there’s stuff I would rather get rid of.

            But the axiom is that data grows to fill the available space.

          2. Tonio

            Yep. Digital video is the worst, followed closely by photos.

        2. Playa Manhattan

          You just dodged the question, but we all noticed.

          1. It’s an eclectic mix of everything except clinton emails or illegal shit.

          2. pistoffnick

            So…furry porn?

          3. That’s not legal.

      2. Given the rate of drive failure, the whole purpose of the NAS is to keep stuff that would take too long to reacquire from being lost suddenly. I don’t have fiber to the desktop.

        1. Playa Manhattan

          Where do you have fiber to?

          1. The city, maybe.

    3. Sensei

      Since you are backed up, I’d replace all the disks in the array. They are all likely the same age.

      Last time I checked 4tb WD reds were the sweet spot.

        1. Sensei

          That is the one!

        2. l0b0t

          I go for the WD Easystore external drives. Best Buy often discounts them; I wait until the 10tb is down around $149 and I pounce. If you crack the shell open, you will find a WD Red that would cost a couple hundred more if purchased as an internal drive. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?_dyncharset=UTF-8&id=pcat17071&iht=y&keys=keys&ks=960&list=n&qp=harddrivesizerange_facet%3DHard%20Drive%20Size~8TB%20-%2011.9TB&sc=Global&st=wd%20easystore&type=page&usc=All%20Categories

      1. Dr Mossy Lawn

        4TB’s were the spot last year when I built out my raid.. but when I specified my BIL’s one this summer the 8TB price point was the lowest $$/TB.. 8TB baracuda’s for $150.

    4. Timeloose

      4PB rack system?

      1. I’d have to replace the entire electrical system in this house to support that.

        1. Timeloose

          What is 20KW is a problem?

          1. I also don’t think I have 220 volt lines.

          2. Timeloose

            You know I’m joking. If you’re not and have that much storage need, invest in tape and tape storage.

          3. I might have almost double digit terabytes of data, so I wouldn’t need that much space just yet.

          4. Chipping Pioneer

            Or, if you don’t have 220V lines, invest in some duct tape and make your own.

            /IANAE

          5. slumbrew

            Ah, 10 TB at B2 would be $50/mo., just for storage – which isn’t bad, but depends on how badly you want to keep it handy.

            https://www.backblaze.com/b2/cloud-storage-pricing.html

          6. Fuck that noise. That’s almost as much as I’m paying for internet.

          7. Timeloose

            Plus you get to say I’ll put it in or have to retrieve it from my memory bank.

          8. They should sell a tape backup system with a decorative old-school reel to reel frontend.

          9. Cacciatore

            You almost certainly have 240v service at your residence if you’re in the US of A.

        1. ChipsnSalsa

          Hopefully in the grocery store?

          1. Semi-Spartan Dad

            Not yet. Though, when out in public, I’m more fearful of what she says to others. We’re working on not calling out to everyone over 30 “Hi Grandma (or Grandpa)”.

          2. Playa Manhattan

            We recently has an incident with a midget. I can’t tell you how hard I was squeezing his shoulder, but he just kept going.

          3. I’m surprised he didn’t turn around and punch you in the family jewels. Midgets really don’t like people grabbing them.

    Cardi B Interviewed Bernie Sanders in a Nail Salon and We Love It!!!

    Asking about Sanders’ plans on universal healthcare, free tuition programs, and student loan forgiveness, Cardi said her fans were wary of “extreme socialism,” giving Sanders the opportunity to explain how his plans would take power away from drug and insurance companies, and lower or eliminate healthcare premiums for most Americans.

    Cardi even offered up her own experience before she became a Grammy-winning artist in regards to Sanders’ plan to address low wages.

    “…Me as a New Yorker, not now, but you know, when I was not famous, I just felt like no matter how many jobs I get, I wasn’t able to make ends meet,” Cardi said. “Like I wasn’t able to pay my rent, get transportation, and eat.”

    The two also briefly discussed their mutual admiration for President Franklin D. Roosevelt, about whom Cardi has previously geeked out to the press.

    One of you with a stronger stomach can actually watch the video.

    1. leon

      Did she trick him and steal his wallet?

    2. Did Bernie say that under his regime, there wouldn’t be so many choices for nail care, and you’d only have soviet clippers?

    3. LJW

      She could give him a few tips on drugging people and stealing their stuff. Or he could give her tips on using government to steal their stuff.

      The same Cardi B who a year ago was (rightfully) asking what the government was doing with all her tax money, now is rah-rahing the government taking more of her money? She much confusing.

        Isn’t she the broad that admitted to bringing guys home from clubs in order to drug and rob them? I think it would be wise to just ignore what she has to say on tax policy even if she agrees with you.

    10. The Other Kevin

      After they got their nails done, they took Cardi’s limo back to one of Bernie’s 3 houses, where they continued to lament the greediness of rich people.

    Brace Yourselves: Pumpkin Spice Spam Is Coming This Fall

    “True to the brand’s roots, SPAM® Pumpkin Spice combines deliciousness with creativity, allowing the latest variety to be incorporated into a number of dishes, from on-trend brunch recipes to an easy, pick-me-up snack,” Hormel’s publicist said to NBC in a statement.

    God damn America!

    1. So this is nausea.

    2. ChipsnSalsa

      pumpkin spice? You mean cinnamon and all spice? Pumpkins smell disgusting.

    3. Stinky Wizzleteats

      Pumpkin in anything other than pie is rank but pumpkin flavored pork products have to be up there with the rankest.

      1. Count Potato

        Pumpkin soup is great. Pumpkin bread is pretty good too.

            you say that but, try these toasted pumpkin seeds for an easy snack!

        2. Stinky Wizzleteats

          I have had pumpkin bread come to think of it and it wasn’t half bad so I amend my comment. I’m still going to hold firm on pumpkin flavored meats though.

    4. Chipping Pioneer

      Is Pumpkin Spice the one who’s replacing Posh?

    Burke County school receptionist fired, indicted on child sex charges

    A school receptionist at Patton High School in Burke County has been indicted on child sex charges after school officials said she used Snapchat and texts to send inappropriate photos to a student.

    Leigh Perkins Greene, of Morganton, was indicted on charges of attempted indecent liberties with a student, disseminating obscene pictures, third-degree sexual exploitation of a minor and providing alcohol to a minor.

    The indictment said Greene tried to take indecent liberties with a student at Patton High School while she was working there as a secretary. It also said Greene sent obscene photos of her genitals to the student through text messaging and Snapchat, and had photos of the student’s genitals.

    Hoochie mama!

      I’m sick and tired of hearing about rape of our youngest children at these government prisons. We need common sense union control to ensure these sick people aren’t just given our children.

    Demonize your way to success

    For the Trump coalition, “an important part of their world view is victimization and being aggrieved,” says the Democratic pollster Cornell Belcher, who has extensively studied attitudes on race relations. “This continues the victimization narrative.”

    Trump’s insistence that he is not bigoted—and that critics like Democratic Representative Elijah Cummings of Maryland are the real racists—echo his response to the allegations of sexual misconduct against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his contentious nomination last fall. Trump responded to those accusations not by empathizing with women but by declaring: “It is a very scary time for young men in America, where you can be guilty of something you may not be guilty of.”

    Both then and now, Trump advanced the same argument: The problem isn’t discrimination against minorities or women pressing for equal treatment, it is that those groups are unfairly accusing white people and men of treating them inequitably.

    Strategists in both parties, along with independent analysts, largely agree that Trump can energize his supporters by insisting they are the actual victims of bigotry. But by motivating his core voters in that manner, Trump is utterly dismissing the concerns of the majority of Americans who now consistently describe him in polls as racist or racially insensitive. Like so many of Trump’s choices, that means his response to these accusations is likely to energize his base at the price of limiting his capacity to reach beyond it.

    Trump is shutting the door on anybody who isn’t a white male blue collar racist, but the Democrats will sweep to victory by calling everybody who doesn’t hate him a racist. Sounds legit.

      “The problem isn’t discrimination against minorities or women pressing for equal treatment, it is that those groups are unfairly accusing white people and men of treating them inequitably.”

      Seeing as men are a minority, you could make a simple (and terrible, but that doesn’t seem to matter in this conversation) argument that not being included as a minority as evidence that they are being unfairly targeted.

    Jeffrey Epstein’s gal pal Ghislaine Maxwell spotted at In-N-Out Burger in first photos since his death

    Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged madam and former lover Ghislaine Maxwell has been discovered — at In-N-Out Burger.

    The 57-year-old was photographed alive and well Monday by an eagle-eyed diner at the burger joint in Universal City, Los Angeles.

    Once spotted, Maxwell — who was sitting alone with a pet pooch — told an onlooker: “Well, I guess this is the last time I’ll be eating here!”

    A source told The Post that a daily regular took the photo.

    “He’s at In-N-Out every single day,” the source said. “He went up to her and asked, ‘Are you who I think you are?’ She replied, ‘Yes, I am.’”

    Maxwell was reading a book called “The Book of Honor: The Secret Lives and Deaths of CIA Operatives” and seemed resigned to having her picture snapped, the source said.

    “She was perfectly friendly, very lovely.”

    Maxwell has been underground for months — and has not been pictured in public since 2016.

    Asked how the photographer knew who Maxwell was, the source said: “If you’ve had the TV on, you know who she is, how could you miss her?”

    You can run but you can’t hide from the tabloid media. Someone has to take the fall after Jeff’s “suicide,” and that someone is you, Stupid Name.

    Florida woman pulls an alligator from her yoga pants. Now a judge has his say

    This Florida woman’s first mistake: putting an alligator inside her yoga pants and more than 40 turtles into a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles backpack.

    Her second mistake: getting into a pickup truck with a driver who would soon be pulled over for running a stop sign.

    That’s when a Charlotte County deputy asked the pair why they had the wildlife inside the pickup. When they told him they were collecting frogs and snakes, the deputy asked if they had anything more.

    That’s when, on May 6, Ariel Michelle Marchan Le Quire pulled a footlong alligator out of the yoga pants she was wearing.

    Almost reflexively, Trump and his allies over the past few weeks have portrayed the charges that he is a racist as an attack not just on the president, but also as an attempt to intimidate and silence his supporters. Such arguments aim directly at the widespread belief among Trump voters that discrimination against white people is now as great of a problem as racism against minorities.

    NY univ. promotes paper comparing cow insemination to ‘rape,’ milking cows to ‘sexual abuse’

    A paper currently being promoted by a New York university calls on society to consider the rampant “sexual exploitation” of dairy cows by the milk industry in order to “fully fight gendered oppression.”

    Specifically, the author compares cattle insemination to “rape” and the milking of cows to “sexual abuse.”
    “the dairy industry is a host for sex-based discrimination”

    Titled “Readying the Rape Rack: Feminism and the Exploitation of Non-Human Reproductive Systems,” the paper was published Friday in a journal called Dissenting Voices, which is published and edited by the Women’s and Gender Studies program at the College at Brockport State University of New York.

    The published piece aims at discussing the “sexual exploitation of non-human bodies, specifically dairy cows.” The author notes that “as a vegan and animal rights activist,” she feels compelled to reveal the “feminist aspects of animal agriculture,” a topic she says is unfortunately “under-researched,” but is nonetheless important because “the same way women’s health has been at stake for years, a dairy cow’s reproductive system has been poked and prodded.”

    According to the publication, “the dairy industry is a host for sex-based discrimination,” and a “site where sexual assault and objectification based on biological makeup are highly prevalent but ignored as we choose to neglect non- humans with whom we share a planet.”

    The paper argues that “in order to fully fight gendered oppression,” society must also address the plight of dairy cows, which it asserts are “still subjects to sex-based discrimination and violence,” despite their voices being “not always lifted or comprehensible.”

    The piece begins by first attacking the widely contested notion that cow’s milk is even at all beneficial for humans, pointing to the government-funded “Got Milk?” campaign and the questionable motivations behind it.

    You’re welcome, people.

      “The outdated stereotype about women being caretakers and most importantly child-bearers remains consistent in the dairy industry, especially when we take into account the means through which these animals are exploited,” April argues, pointing specifically to the insemination of cattle, which she compares to “rape,” the milking of cows, which she compares to “sexual abuse,” “emotional trauma related to pregnancy,” and “nonconsensual hormone treatments.”

    There Is No Ethical Dissent Under Capitalism

    It’s perfectly reasonable to believe that, at heart, both Kaepernick and Jay-Z are serious, compassionate, well-meaning men who are deeply invested in addressing the plight of marginalized communities, and who seek to use their considerable platforms to do so in the best way they know how. It’s also accurate to say that lending themselves and the things they stand for to mega-corps that do not and cannot care about the admirable convictions they wish to support is a lamentable, counterproductive plan of action.

    It’s yet more proof of the omnipresence of capitalist realism that, when going out to protest and subvert the system, ostensibly good actors like Jay-Z and Kaepernick can see no alternative other than to align with the very system they claim to want to change. The system engenders dissent, seamlessly absorbs it through the willing and eager collaboration with the dissenters themselves, and nothing ever changes. I bet the limited-edition Nikes Chance the Rapper wears during his performance at next year’s Super Bowl will be quite the hot ticket once they go on sale, though.

      There is so much that can and will happen before now and the election, but if Trump passes, or attempts to pass, bad gun laws, that could be for it. Or the economy could tank – it’s not really stable, not with the unstable trade discussion. Or he could just shit the bed during the debates, because I would hope by now someone has a decent strategy on how to deal with him.

      Or he could do something essentially impotent about guns, and the economy could be still be okay, and the Dems may run Biden, and then he’s on almost easy street.

        “because I would hope by now someone has a decent strategy on how to deal with him.”

        I have yet to see evidence of this.

    Cis-Heterol Shitlord Time

    Do you have a penis but the world convinces you that you should cut it off?

    Cisheterol Can Help. Talk to your doctor today.

      If the side effects are toxic masculinity, then I’m all in.

      1. Other side effects include hair growth on the face and torso, and an urge to be a productive person.

        1. JaimeRoberto: Gentleman, Scholar, French Tickler

          I just assumed that was all part of toxic masculinity.

    Should We Legalize Street Gangs?

    In Making Peace in Drug Wars, Lessing argues for a pragmatic approach, managing the problem of criminal gangs without chasing the illusion of eliminating it overnight:

    It is critical to reframe the policy problem, from eradicating drugs or crushing the cartels or punishing dastardly traffickers, to minimizing the harms produced by the drug trade… Reframing the problem ultimately implies “diplomatic recognition”: accepting that as long as there is demand for drugs, there will be traffickers, and orienting repressive policy to favor the sorts of traffickers we would like to have.

    That is a hard sell, especially for voters that are justly horrified and outraged by the crimes these groups have perpetrated. What Ecuador might ultimately show us is that it is possible for a democratic government to increase basic public safety, while incentivizing less bad behavior from its gangs. The results have been a rare positive example in one of the most violent regions of the world. Whether the rest of the region can learn from its example remains to be seen.

    That is just the summary, but an all together interesting piece.

    1. leon

      “as long as there is demand for drugs, there will be traffickers, and orienting repressive policy to favor the sorts of traffickers we would like to have.

      It’s always about imposing their will on other people. I.e war according to clauswitz.

    2. Private Chipperbot

      Why not just legalize drugs? No gangs needed.

      1. invisible finger

        The problem would go away if they would legalize drugs. That’s why they only want to legalize SOME drugs – there is a lot of money in keeping some of the problems around. Won’t someone think of the correctional officers??!!

      2. Stinky Wizzleteats

        You assume they actually want to take care of the problem.

  33. The Late P Brooks

    Ouch. I seem to have sprained my trigger finger. I was out tramping the acreage, inspecting my weed crop and doing a little fence repair, and I tripped over a rock (Pick your feet up, Dummy!). I managed not to do a face plant onto the big rock beyond it; I got my hand down in time to save myself. But now it hurts when I do *this*.
    Dammitall.

    1. Brett L

      By trigger finger, you mean, jerking hand.

      1. Tundra

        That’s why it’s so important to be able to jerk with the off-hand.

        1. JaimeRoberto: Gentleman, Scholar, French Tickler

          Was that in the porno version of Bull Durham?

  34. Florida Man

    So tomorrow is the last day of my 16 weeks of madcow. Does anyone have a program they recommend or should I just start doing my own thang?

    1. A Leap at the Wheel

      Juggernaut for the big lifts, beat the notebook for the accessories. I gotta run, but shoot an email to this user name at gee mail dot com and I’ll give you more info.

      1. Florida Man

        Will do.

    2. Tundra

      I like 5-3-1.

      1. Florida Man

        I’ll look into it.

        1. Tundra

          Simple and scalable. I use an app to keep track and it’s nice to know exactly what you are doing when you get to the gym.

          1. Florida Man

            Which lifts do you use?

          2. Tundra

            The main 4 for the program. I mix up my accessory lifts, but the usual suspects. On deadlift day I do rows and other back stuff. On bench day I do incline bench, close-grip, one arm dumbell press and tricep work. On squat day it’s leg press, rdls, lunges, etc. And on OHP day I do dumbell stuff and pull ups. I always clean the bar when doing ohp, so that’s kind of fun, too.

            Wendler has a bunch of accessory schemes in his book, depending on what you are trying to accomplish. It’s definitely worth a read.

          3. Florida Man

            If I had to pick a goal, it would be day to day usable strength. Pushing beds, picking heavy stuff up off the floor, putting stuff on shelves over my head, but mostly bone density/health reasons. If I end up looking good with my shirt off, that’s a bonus.

          4. BEAM ain’t co-operatin’ with the MAN

            ^^This. I’m not interested in picking up chicks any more.

          5. Tundra

            There are a ton of programs, but your goals are mine. Practical strength. Buy the book, try it, and tell me to fuck off if it doesn’t work.

      2. The Other Kevin

        I’ve been using 5-3-1 for about 4 months now. I really like it. I’m seeing gains but it’s not aggravating any of my existing shoulder issues.

        1. Florida Man

          I did stronglifts 5×5 for probably too long and the last 4 months madcow, which I really liked. I’m hoping to add some accessory lifts to the big 5.

    3. Dr. Fronkensteen

      Just thoroughly cook your beef. Or Warty Hugman’s squat program depending on what you mean.

      Sorry I don’t have a better non-joking response.

    4. Playa Manhattan

      Seefood diet.

      1. Florida Man

        Its hard to stay off that diet when lifting.

  35. The Late P Brooks

  36. Bob Boberson

    I did the annual Sexual Assault Awareness training today at work. In the interest of getting it over with I just kept my mouth shut and subtly read Glibs.

    A few observations:

    1) From the video they made us watch: Women are strong and capable except when they are in a bar and have had a few drinks. Then they lose all agency and become incapable of enforcing boundaries or making decisions for themselves.

    2) “Bullying”…..not just for grade schoolers anymore apparently. We now have ‘workplace bullying’. I’ve never observed anyone giving a coworker a purple nurple or taking another’s lunch money so I must be pretty sheltered.

    3). Sexual harassment now includes saying something a privileged minority finds offensive apparently. You must not say anything that might offend some one of another race, creed, gender, etc. Even if you are unaware that it’s offensive when you said it.

    We also talked about suicide prevention. Training sessions and mandatory fun were floated as ideas to stop it. I REALLY had a hard time not blurting out; “Well actually, they make me wanna kill myself a whole lot more.”

    1. Tundra

      The fuck is “mandatory fun”?!?

      1. Bob Boberson

        Military-speak for a mandatory BBQ or some infantile team building exercise rather than just letting you leave. Somehow in commanders minds this is ‘doing something” to fix a morale problem.

        1. Dr. Fronkensteen

          The mandatory beatings will continue until morale improves.

          1. Bob Boberson

            Collective punishment for an individuals actions helped put me on the road to individualism/libertarianism.

        2. B.P.

          The morale problem in your office necessitates suicide prevention? Yikes.

          Also, being conscripted into participating in nonwork activities with co-workers is not fun.

          1. Bob Boberson

            Well I am in the employ of the DoD. Suicide rates have gone up this year. Nothing to do with deployments to meaningless conflicts in third-world shitholes though. Nothing to do with needlessly breaking up families and destroying marriages by sending people on remote tours to places we’ve occupied for no apparent reason for 50+ years.

            Also, as it turns out, human nature doesn’t seem to be perfectible.

            Better have more BBQ’s just to be safe.

        3. I might be the only Marine evAr to have not attended a Marine Corps ball. That it was nominally voluntary and effectively mandatory pissed me off to no end. I cleaned toilets instead. Year after year. Yet I was successful in the corps. Just one of those things.

      2. Torture.

        It’s those stupid forced group activities everyone hates except the people who get to plan out and force the events on others.

        1. Tundra

          *gives thanks to God for always working in tiny companies*

    2. R C Dean

      You must not say anything that might offend some one of another race, creed, gender, etc.

      So saying “Goddam, how many beaners have squirted out newly minted US citizens in this joint, anyway?” would be Frowned Upon?

      1. Bob Boberson

        Yes. “Minted” others those that prefer to barter.

      Veal, it’s what’s for dinner!

  39. R C Dean

    Sorry for the fly-by, but this just popped

    If you’ve followed SpyGate from the beginning – and I have – then you know that it came out months ago via anonymous sources in news reports that all of Hillary Clinton’s St. Dept. emails were being automatically copied & sent to a Chinese-related email account.
    So what changed today?

    Documentation was released that verifies these anonymously sourced prior news accounts.

    Yup. What we all knew is now confirmed – the Chinese government was getting a copy of every single email to and from Hillary’s illegal SecState account.

    Which, in my mind, raises this question: Did she set up that account solely to get around FOIA, or did she set it up to facilitate Chinese (and possibly other countries) access to classified material? I don’t think you can rule it out, especially since its all too easy to imagine her accepting large sums of money to do so.

    1. LJW

      Nothing will come of it per usual

    2. Dr. Fronkensteen

      They were broke. What choice did she have?

    3. Pan Zagloba

      the Chinese government was getting a copy of every single email to and from Hillary’s illegal SecState account

      Why do you hate free trade? Or are you one of those “IP is real” collectivists?

    4. Rhywun

      I’m gonna apply the 48-hour rule to this.

      1. R C Dean

        If you are waiting for heavy coverage of this by the DemOp Media, its not going to happen. What’s in the post looks pretty solid – declassified government documents confirming the live drop-box account, and that it was a Chinese government (company) account.

        1. grrizzly

          The email address was named after a Chinese state-owned company. But the email was set up by Paul Combetta, a Platte River Network employee. Yes, picking this email name is weird and suspicious but the thread didn’t positively link “carterheavyindustries@gmail.com” to the actual company, Shandong Carter Heavy Industry Co., Ltd.

          1. R C Dean

            Interesting. The last link not confirmed. Although the dropbox itself is a massive violation of classified info laws. If its not the Chinese Carter Heavy Industries, I wonder who it was.

            I wonder why Combetta set it up, and if he got one of the immunity deals DOJ was passing out like potato chips as part of their coverup of all this.

        2. Rhywun

          Enh, I’ll settle for NR or Fox or something. Not some blogger I don’t know from Adam.

          1. R C Dean

            Unless someone is forging recently declassified documents, his sourcing for his claims (at least as far as the existence of the dropbox goes) looks solid.

          2. R C Dean

            Also, I recall a Representative saying during a hearing on this months ago that an unnamed foreign country (not Russia) had access to Hillary’s server. Sounds like this, only with the connection of the dropbox account to China possibly confirmed in other classified info we haven’t seen yet.

    5. R C Dean

      So this is at least the third time this has been linked, so let me get this out of the way:

      No, I did not shoot myself in the nuts. No, pot did not fall out my ass.

      1. Dr. Fronkensteen

        Did the Browns let you down one more time?

        1. R C Dean

          Nope. They can only let their fans down, which I am not.

          1. Yeah, but did someone tell you Donald Trump was impeached?

          2. R C Dean

            He was ?!?

      2. Urthona

        Why aren’t conservative news sites even reporting this?

        1. Crusty Juggler

          The Epoch Times is very sketchy, and the author is fat and has a combover.

          I am sure if there is something to the legit news people, like….Hannity and Ingraham….will lap it up.

          1. straffinrun

            I keep getting Epoch Times article notifications even though I turn it off. I hate that site.

          2. Rhywun

            The Epoch Times is very sketchy

            It is? I remember when it was just a Falun Gong outlet little Chinese ladies would hand out outside train stations. I don’t know when it turned into sketchy alt-right outlet. Sometime in late 2016?

          3. R C Dean

            We’ll see if “legit news people” can spare a cycle for this over and above their outrage of the day. To me, at this point, whether “legit news” covers it is pretty irrelevant, since I think they’ve all shown themselves to be some flavor of clickbait-driven hack or other.

            I keep coming back to, this is based on newly declassified documents, which are shown – if those aren’t forged, that’s better confirmation than you’ll get on 99% of the “news” these days.

            The loose end, I think, is who did that dropbox account belong to? Also unanswered: why did Combetta set it up? Who asked him to do so? But unless those documents are forged, we now have confirmation that Hillary’s illegal SecState account was in fact broadcasting all of her email traffic, which is so many felonies nobody could even count them all.

          4. Crusty Juggler

            I was just answering Urthona as to why others don’t seem to be discussing it, at least instantly. The Epoch Times is a strange publican and very pro Trump – it’s very odd.

            That doesn’t mean that thread is full of shit. I am sure, if it is legit or legit enough, many other outlets will run with it.

          5. Not Adahn

            Why does the odd guy in the commercials pronounce it “Epic?”

      I haven’t followed the Jessica Yanev thing but it seems to support my prediction. A while ago I said the left would be defending pedophilia in the next 10 years. If I’m wrong it’s only because I forecast way too much time.

      1. Pan Zagloba

        Yanev plays the game by the rules, he may have overreached by target Women Of Colour, though.

      2. 0x90

        fwiw this dude is pretty obviously not a trans-anything, he’s a straight-up pedo who was wily enough to figure out he could get some cover by adopting the label, while also trying to sue multiple people for discrimination. But he’s also pretty clearly a psycho, so did not know when to quit, and has taken everything way too far.

    2. JaimeRoberto: Gentleman, Scholar, French Tickler

      Half of me thinks he’s just trolling to point out the absurdity of some of the SJW positions.

        Gavin McInness’s “Miles the SJW” persona is less over the top than Yanev, so you may have something there.

    Trump wants to buy Greenland

    The idea of the U.S. purchasing Greenland has captured the former real-estate developer’s imagination, according to people familiar with the deliberations, who said Mr. Trump has, with varying degrees of seriousness, repeatedly expressed interest in buying the ice-covered autonomous Danish territory between the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans.

    Inspired by the “Cardi B interviews Bernie at the nail salon” thread:

    I had occasion to go to a nail salon for the first time ever today. The Mrs. wanted to get her nails done and needs help getting around, post leg break. so off we went.

    Good lord! I had no idea. This was a random place in a Publix shopping plaza. Just one of those things that says “Nails” on the big sign.

    1. cyto

      It was only one unit wide. But it ran the full depth, so way bigger than I thought it would be. THey had 20 raised pedicure stations – they looked like the bastard child of a shoeshine stand and a barbershop hair washing station. 20. My word! And there were 20 long tables in front of the 20 pedicure stations – each with 4 nail stations.

      They had the capacity to handle 60 simultaneous customers! What in the ever-loving hell?

      They didn’t have enough employees milling about to handle that load, but they were clearly built out for that peak demand. And those things are all over the place. I had no idea just how … I don’t even know what the word for it is… how, uh, indulgent women are. These guys have to be making a lot more money than my “poor immigrant woman doing nails” hand-to-mouth existence stereotype had supposed.

      1. cyto

        edit…. 100 customers. 20 feet and 80 nails.

        At any rate, I got exposed to an entire industry that I was aware of, but completely ignorant of beyond cutting the checks for the wife.

      2. Rhywun

    5. AlmightyJB

      Yeah, Lifting will very quickly raise your heart rate. Recovery time can easily be 3 or 4 minutes depending on how much weight, reps, general fitness etc.

      1. Okay.

        I’m trying to get back into actually moving, since I’d lapsed. So fitness is… poor.

        1. AlmightyJB

          I used to wear a heart rate monitor when I worked out. If you’re just getting back into it, you would be amazed how high your heart rate goes up by rep 10 if your lifting heavy.

          1. I generally worry whenever I can feel it without searching for a pulse. It’s residual hypochondria.

          2. AlmightyJB

            Yeah, you have to listen to your body for sure. Give yourself ample time to recover between reps. Recovery time will reduce over time. Doesn’t take that long for that to happen. It’s actually cool to wear a monitor, most of them will track calories burned which is motivating as well. You’ll also know the % of your max heart rate all of the time so you can push yourself without worrying about keeling over:)

    Ghislaine Maxwell posed in American flag bikini for a series of raunchy pictures at the height of her friendship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, telling people at the shoot how she ‘handed out sex toys at a dinner party’

    During the shoot Maxwell is said to have hinted at her alleged double life, telling those present how she ‘put dildos at each place setting’ at a dinner party she hosted for young girls.

    She is also said to have laughed describing how one couple at the dinner ‘demonstrated how to do the perfect fellatio on a man for all at the table.’

    The British socialite, the youngest child of the late newspaper magnate Robert Maxwell, facilitated Epstein’s entry to the rarefied worlds of royalty, politics and celebrity.

    She helped to cement his friendships with Prince Andrew, Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Woody Allen, to name a few.

    And Maxwell was a guest at Chelsea Clinton’s wedding to Marc Meezvinsky, at least a year after the time when Bill Clinton says his relationship with Epstein ended.

    The FBI are said to want to question her after the death of Epstein, whom she dated in the 1990s before remaining close friends, along with other alleged co-conspirators of the convicted pedophile’s following his apparent suicide in a Manhattan jail cell on Saturday.

    He told The New York Post: ‘I am not dating Ghislaine, I’m home alone with my cat.’

    1. Of course, there’s a Trump! photo in the article.

      1. straffinrun

        TBF, there’s a Trump photo in every article on the internet.

        1. B.P.

          On my lunch walk there’s a wrap-around board on the local newspaper building on which they scroll news headlines. The other day I walked by and the first eight headlines, all from the AP, had “Trump” in them.

      2. Crusty Juggler

        Yes – they were buddies. And then Epstein ended up dead under sketchy circumstances at a prison operated by a federal agency.

    The Windows 10 upgrade has made this week very unproductive. I can’t run my tests, I can’t run CAD, and I can’t print.

      Is the girlfriend hot?

      1. Bob Boberson

        I’m not gonna lie, seeing a smoking hot vixen on the arm of a soyboi makes me want to go all silverback.

        It’s pure, unjustifiable envy, but it would be a baldfaced lie to claim the impulse isn’t there.

        1. There’s absolutely no reason to deny visceral impulses. Go with it.

    We need common sense smug teenager control.

    1. Pfft. We’re not mocking her for trying to save the planet. We’re mocking her for being a complete dupe and dumbass.

      1. Rhywun

        Meh, I’m not gonna mock her at all. It IS cruel. Plus, kids are stupid.

        I will go full-bore on her parents – and tools like whoever this twatter is – though.

      2. I’ll mock her for trying to save the planet. What sort of mono maniac thinks that they can alter the fate of the entire fucking planet? At best, if she were to inspire global change, the change would disappear into the noise in a geological blink of an eye.

        This is why I support conservationism (stewardship of your surroundings) and reject environmentalism (salvation of the planet)

        1. “Tulsi Gabbard Apologist”

          I find your distinction between conservationism and environmentalism to be intriguing. Very Georgist

        2. Bob Boberson

          What good is conserving your surroundings? That’s hardly a pretense for enslaving those around you in the name of the greater good.

      Now do children used by their anti-abortion parents.

        Wouldn’t that be…. all parents?

        My limit on deer this year has dropped from 1 to 5, I guess the shortage has caught up. Hope it doesn’t drop any more, not sure if I have room for 6 in the freezer.

        1. Bob Boberson

          So the deer ration has been decreased?!?

          eh, just tell him to keep those shenanigans 100 feet from you at all times or you’ve castrate him with rusty can lids. As long as he respects those boundaries you’ll be fine. I just had mine renewed and my uncle was up on federal drug charges. I think you’re ok as long as there isn’t a direct connection.

          1. Tulip

            Yes, but it still doesn’t make this smart. I am looking forward to it.
