Do you think that makes it BETTER?

I had a friend in college whose boyfriend constantly said he was going to assault her little sister. We all told her to leave him. He would laugh and go "kidding kidding." But saying it at all made him untrustworthy.

"I'm going to invade you" is not a JOKE.

Do these people realize that "peace through strength" is straight up Orwellian at this point? Like, we're so far beyond the level of satire that it's comic.
Bessent on Greenland: "Peace through strength. Make it part of the US and there will not be a conflict because the US right now, we're the hottest country in the world, we're the strongest country in the world. Europeans project weakness. The US projects strength."

I saw this take on TikTok a few days ago and wanted to share it here. I had to truncate it because it's a bit longer than 3 minutes. Her central argument is the US govt has a problem in that decades of stochastic terrorism from gun culture has made us less scared of guns.

FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now?

Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests

FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests?

Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

Periodically I punch the area where I used to live into Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace and search for a miracle. See, when I was sixteen, my mother lost our family storage unit for non-payment. And that included my original Pony collection.

The wheel turns; the summer ends.
The light departs, the cold descends,
And we are left to hold the light
Against the cold and longest night.

The wind that howls around the door,
The tracks of snow upon the floor.
Reach for your loves and hold them tight
Against the cold and longest night.

Reminder: you should absolutely start wearing the best mask you can find in public spaces, even if you stopped before. We have no public health at the top level & repeat infections have ravaged immune systems.

If someone gives you a hassle, say "even if it's just a cold, I DON'T WANT THAT EITHER!"

It's time for everyone's favorite chronologically unanchored holiday, The Story of the Lizard in the Leg.
Because people keep asking, the Story of The Lizard In That Dude's Leg. Some caveats:

1. This happened more than twenty years ago. There are no pictures. There was a small article in a local paper with, again, no pictures (I'm assuming that's what the producers of 9-1-1: LONE STAR found).

Consequences are not cancel culture. They're just a new concept for parts of society, who have never actually had to deal with them before.
When the papers start whining about “cancel culture” again, remember that these men are stepping down 1) voluntarily, and 2) because their jobs have no real impact on their wealth and power, and 3) BECAUSE OF THE RAPING.

I propose November 1st as resurgence day. Halloween ends, and we all pick up the phones again. MasterCard and Visa, bare minimum, once per day. Every day. All of us. They are only hiring the usual number of holiday workers, this would frighten credit card companies. “It’s not going away”
A source familiar w/ internal workings at MasterCard notes the company does not plan to recruit additional call center workers for the Christmas season, as MasterCard does not expect higher call volume than usual. A resurgence of calls re censorship during the busy season would be huge strategically

This bothers me more and more as I get older. It is so normal to change our minds when we encounter new information. Everyone’s so scared of being a little embarrassed at not knowing, but it’s fine and normal to not know everything.
I am frankly sick of all the people who insist “so and so seemed off from the start.”

Stop lying. Sometimes bad people are very charming and likable and you liked them and that’s fine.

This post shows up for me flagged as rude. I know some people think it's impolite to remind them that proportionately, most of the lives saved by vaccines are those of children; it's also true. Vaccinations save children. If you care about them, fight FOR vaccination, not AGAINST abortion.
There’s a section in my shul’s cemetery that’s just babies, toddlers, and littles. The most recent died less than 100 years ago. If you love your kids, vaccinate them.
