Another one of those weeks where the planets refuse to align. But, that doesn’t men there’s no news: Saturn has returned to it’s rightful direct motion! While Capricorn isn’t out of the dark, lonely woods of space yet, at least they’re on their way out. For the rest of us, expect the worst impulses to stop, but with a general mental malaise for the next few weeks (er, actually several months. Fortunately, you’re going to forget that part.) As far as positive advice goes, Saturn direct is a very auspicious time for making righteous endings, so de-clutter your garage, kick out the couch surfer that’s overstayed their welcome, donate your unloved taxidermy to the furry charity fundraiser, that sort of thing.
Libra is pre-gaming like a mofo, poaching both Venus and Mercury. That’s really good luck for them and general good luck for the rest of us (Libra is generous like that). I’m expecting women to do well in the competition that I’ll be shooting at (barring my disqualification) when this post goes live (I’ll probably be on the fifth or sixth stage at that time). While the sun in Libra would be more auspicious for my performance, Mercury there will be helpful. Not so much Venus, though that will reduce the risk that I’ll shoot anyone. Adding to the safety enhancement is Mars in Virgo, though if I had my druthers, I’d be shooting on a day when Mars was in Sagittarius. Jupiter being in Sagittarius instead is a good sign, particularly if I’m looking to shoot cleanly (which I am). Mars in Virgo also adds to the “women shooting well” probability.
Virgo ends her months with strength, literally, holding on to Mars. Gemini hosts the moon, so good for them, but since Gemini is no Libra, the rest of us should be alert for duplicity, scheming, betrayal etc. This also amplifies the Saturnine influence, with Gemini (and obviously the moon) also signifying transition. So DTMFA.

So, Monday?
Nope, just the days that end in ‘y.’
“narrow escape”
Well, I have that going for me. Which is nice.
Escape from what? there’s the question,
Sup Tres!
and all you monkeys out there!
HEY YUFUS!
I have a drug test to pass this week so…thanks.
Good luck.
Thanks!
Best get to studying.
Good luck.
Dark unkind woman, sadness, separation.
That is basically my dating history. Nice to know it’s not my fault.
So … I’mma get laid this week?
Good luck – we’re all counting on you.
^This. I’m going through one of the longest dry spells of my adult life (months), and it’s driving me crazy.

I love Macy. The girl, not so much.
I kind of put Macy in the same category as Buscemi, a character actor sought for its own sake instead of as a supporting character.
However, after Boardwalk Empire, it’s difficult to see Buscemi as those goofy characters he plays.
Ha. Cute.
I met Macy in an LAX airline lounge. I was in uniform and he came up to me and engaged me in conversation. He seemed like a nice guy. He was the only guy who could have performed his role in “Fargo” and he’s good in “Shameless” as well.
Why not everyone?
Cancer: Queen of Swords – Dark unkind woman, sadness, separation. – nonsense
Agreed.
OT: The West Wing is 20 years old. Too many Democrats still think it’s a great model for politics.
As the one Troo Libertarian I find my politics are best reflected in 1975’s, “Rollerball.”
Isn’t Rollerball an anti-corporation screed?
Yes, sort of. But mostly I see it as a pro-individualist movie. Although the corporations are there, the critique, to me, seems to be of a collectivist society as a whole.
OT: Watched the Pies phone it in last night. What the hell was that?!
Colliwobbles strike again.
Main point: I would expect Richmond to cruise to the flag next week.

Your answer is why I am the one Troo and you are not. “Rollerball” is a movie about individualism.

That also features two of my least-liked people in country music.
So back Glen Campbell. The only song sadder than “ Dreams of the Everyday Housewife” is Dan Fogelberg’s “Windows and Walls.”

Thank you for denoting which type of poppers you are crushing.
^Old-skool.
Nope. I actually considered that once for about five minutes. Possible, but not worth it. Plus, I can always enjoy the foreskins of others — theoretically anyway.
“I can always enjoy the foreskins of others”
Being who (((I))) am it was always in the contract. And most of the high quality (ie: non-activist) research seems to indicate that it doesn’t make a difference. However, I’d be lying it I wasn’t curious what difference it made.
It should in theory make the glans more sensitive. I find it to be a really attractive look. The looseness makes things slightly less frictiony for the person taking it during PIA (and I would assume PIV).
I can also do this certain little foreskin trick during fellatio that causes most guys to levitate right off the bed.

You’re newly single. Drink away.
Sounds like you’re better off single. Still sucks in the short term — or doesn’t, IYKWIM.
Then again, maybe the lack is part of why he’s single.
Let it be known that I dumped her because she was basically useless as a partner.
I’m sure the lack of blow jobs didn’t help.
OR: if the blow jobs existed, I’m sure there’s a girl out there who does it better. And has bigger tits.
I have never had an actually good blowjob from a woman, and have received that from over ten women — granted most of them brainy college girls back in the day. I’m not saying that the ladies can’t; I’ve heard of women who were said to be quite talented, just never had the, erm, pleasure.
There is something to be said for having the equipment — I always give the blowjob I’d want to receive. Seems to have worked well for me so far.
I have noticed an unfortunate deterioration of BJ skills among younger male homosexuals. Very disappointing. You’ve never seen a look of dejection like the one you get after you say “Look boy, this is the way you do it…” and demonstrate.
…and maybe why I don’t get laid more.
She isn’t particularly good at bj’s. So that didn’t help the situation.
And has bigger tits.
I like proportionality but I have come around on the top-heavy vs. bottom heavy debate. I like both T and A. So as long as a girl has a decent A, I am good with her being slightly top-heavy.
I can see all of that and it makes total sense. I often wonder about doing cunny on a woman as a dood and wondering what I’m doing wrong vs. how a lesbian would do it. You can ask a woman to show you how she uses her hand and then emulate; not so much how she would use her mouth (unless you have an exceptionally talented woman and then you should probably propose).
My first woman lover had been exclusively lesbian beforehand. She was demanding, but the skills I learned stood me in good stead for the next couple of decades. Thanks, Lisa!
I wonder about legit bi-folks: are they Swiss army knives, or are they jacks of all trades, masters of none?
Either way, bi people have a great advantage in sex. Way more options/chances.

Damn, that’s harsh.
Uselessness is a pretty good reason to dump someone.
I can only do all the chores inside and outside, and pay for everything while being constantly nagged and unappreciated for so long.
I’m not seeing any hate or even bitterness. Just a sad realization. That’s a terrible place to come to in a relationship. Ugh.
Oh, I’m not disputing his statement. It’s brutal in its simplicity.
Good reason to dump her.
Share the Chilli recipe pls.
Nothing special. I kindof wing it. 2 lbs of ground beef (or turkey, if you prefer), cans of light and dark kidney beans, black beans, chopped onion and green pepper, can and a half of tomato sauce, diced jalapeno. Season to your liking. I do salt, pepper, garlic powder. And other than the jalapeno I don’t spice it up too hot. You can always add, but you can’t subtract.
And then, of course, top it with some cheddar and make sure you have Lays Scoops cornchips.
Leftovers for chili dogs?
Good vs Evil
Trump, who on Tuesday held fund-raisers in Silicon Valley and Beverly Hills, enacted a different form of eco-trolling, when he promised on Wednesday to cite San Francisco for the environmental damage that its homeless population has caused. On a roll, the following day, he made good on a yearlong threat to deny California the right to continue setting its own, more stringent tailpipe-emissions standards, which the state has had since Nixon first granted it the authority, as part of the Clean Air Act, in 1970. In a joint statement by the E.P.A. and the Department of Transportation, the Trump Administration also withdrew permission for California to require carmakers to offer zero-emissions vehicles, a prerogative enshrined in Obama’s 2013 Clean Air Act. Back then, the mandate was designed to stimulate innovation, for our collective salvation; in these dark ages of retrograde, reactionary American climate policy, it served only to provoke a gaslighting, gas-loving President who’s determined to turn back time.
On Friday, California, as it has become accustomed to doing, sued the Administration in an effort to preserve the state’s legacy rights surrounding emissions standards and clean vehicles. (Twenty-three other states and three cities joined the suit, which was filed in federal court in D.C.) “The environment is California’s foreign policy,” Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, told me on Thursday, as the complaint was being finalized. “It’s where we assert ourselves on the international stage, not just the national stage.” This is the sixtieth lawsuit that California has filed against the Trump Administration and, according to Newsom, by far the most consequential. “We have the law on our side, we have the facts on our side, we have science on our side, and we have moral authority—not just the formal authority—to fight back,” he told me.
How can anyone maintain this level of melodramatic hysteria without succumbing to a brain embolism?
Ability to have a brain embolism presupposes the existence of a brain.
What in the actual fuck? That’s a new lawsuit every…what, 2 weeks? Anybody know what their win/loss record is?
That’s a lot of tax dollars to write all those briefs.
It’s not their money.
*shudder*
How can anyone maintain this level of melodramatic hysteria without succumbing to a brain embolism?
They have a brain? I think that assumes facts not in evidence.
Two things you can count on in with Green Bay.
1) If you give Rodgers a stupid break he will hurt you with a TD or huge gain.
2) They will NOT run a punt or kickoff for a TD. (No team has gone longer than the current GB streak. In fact every team in the NFL has one or more since GB last scored.)
“If you give Rodgers a stupid break he will hurt you with a TD or huge gain”
Unpopular opinion: Rodgers is a better pure QB than Brady. Without a superhuman O-line, Brady is only great, not the best of all time.
Brady without Evil Genius Belichik would be nowhere near the level he’s at in the Pats system.
I’d like to know more about Pats scouting methods.
Rogers is my qb in ffb and so far the only one getting me points today. I also have a GB wr but, against my instinct, I benched him today. And of course he is getting mad points right now…
I lucked into Mahomes as my QB. Hopefully he stays healthy.

From that New Yorker thing:
Now, of the country’s ten most-polluted metropolitan areas, seven are in California.
Huh. Sounds like the marginal return on those regulations isn’t all that impressive.
I guess they need a mandatory “buyback” for all vehicles made before 2010.
“seven are in California”
Damn Republicans sabotaging their utopia!
~snort!~
Just like *something* will always be the leading cause of death in children, there will always be the ten most polluted cities no matter how clean our air is.
I don’t suppose the absolute population of said cities and relatively high concentrations of industry have anything to do with it.
“relatively high concentrations of industry”
Well California just needs to outlaw industry and that’ll fix everything.
I’m sure there are people who actually believe this.
Those are the lefties that make Pelosi look downright level-headed.
She’s a corrupt and terrible person, but she knows which side the bread is buttered on.
Can’t we just outlaw California? Or eject it from the Union?
Can San Diego County get an exception and remain part of the Union? We have a strategically important natural harbor, Naval Base, Marine Air Base, and Camp Pendleton.
Just end the welfare state, purge the politicians, shred, the state constitution, and start over.
Oh, and San Diego includes yours truly! Don’t maroon me.
As a Virginian I am partial to Norfolk Naval Station. But strategic locations are strategic.
Don’t maroon me.

My neighbor in the property that abuts ours in the back yard just called and said my cat was begging to get into her house and seemed a little panicky (the cat, not the neighbor). She said she then saw a big shadow of “a hawk” circling overhead.
So I went out and called the cat back to the house. She came bounding over the ridge between our houses and into the house.
I looked up, and the “hawk” was a freaking Golden Eagle!! It was ginormous.
Yow! Glad your kitteh is safe.
Yikes! Pussy almost got eaten!
Lucky cat. Bald Eagles prefer fish but Goldens are small animal eaters. Saw one carrying away a small dog in California. Like clockwork the owner came to my office to complain, loudly and at length, the next day. I listened and mouthed platitudes. A few days later I saw her husband who apologized.
I see what you did there, MikeS.

“It was ginormous”
That’s what she said.
…to make you feel good.
It’s good your cat is OK.
Yeah, all of our cats have been indoor cats. Too much wildlife around here.
Yeah, we arrived here in the foothills of the mountains with 2 cats. Coyote took one of them within 2 months.
We were training our cats to go in and out the cat door, but they were kittens. Coyote sighting made them totally indoor cats. They remember.

It’s halftime. I think I’ll go do errands. I can’t imagine the 2nd half will be different. I’ve seen more exciting practices.

But in all fairness, I did read a great article by a new mother and gun enthusiast that could be roughly summed up as “I’m a mother and I support gun rights because I need to protect this child by any means necessary, and I’m at a physical disadvantage to men.”
Men > women as professional coworkers and employees, at least in my experience.

And could it be, is it really possible, that Trump is playing NthD chess with the Media and Dems??
Could he have run a “poison pill” by bringing it up with Ukarine’s President on the phone, knowing that someone in the IC would leak it? Man, if he pulled that off, he should get four more years.
The money quote
(Redaction in tiny font of page 28?)
I had the same reaction to that little “blurb” from CNN. I’m really beginning to think Trump knew it would be leaked and he was hoping for it. Because the media gave zero fucks about Biden’s blatant admission – boasting, in fact – that he got another country’s prosecutor fired. It just coincidentally happened to involve a company of his son’s Totes co-inky-dink.
“…the whistleblower had no first-hand knowledge…”
But surely he is familiar with Trump’s thinking.
Lol.
The cats keep chasing the laser, Trump keeps getting what he wants and everyone keeps asking “Could he be playing us? Is he drunken master. Nooooo, surely not. He is a buffoon.”
I don’t believe in luck.
You have to look at it. Who brought up the story, who propoagated it and why? I subscribe that what happened is that they thought they could nail trump initially, and that others who spread the story more saw it as a win-win. Nail Trump OR get rid of Biden.

Man this is something i’ve run to a lot. I speak spanish semi-fluently. And names of Spanish places in Spanish speaking countries i will say correctly. But if the word has been thoughrouly anglicized, I won’t because I’m always talking to English speakers. For example I don’t say Oo-ru-gwai. I say Ur-i-guay like regular Americans.
I’ve never heard a person speaking a non-English language abruptly break accent and say “United States of America” or any other American name in that generic TV announcer accent; they always say it in their own accent. Not sure where the idea came from that Americans are supposed to do that. Wasn’t there an Obama speech where he says “tortillas” with a put-on Spanish accent?
