From Karl Denninger, as he ponders the fallout from the raid on President Trump earlier this week. Politics is and always has been a blood sport. If you’re not prepared to take it on at that level you have no business getting involved in it. Word. The theft by electoral fraud of the 2020… Continue reading Quote of the day

The fix may be in, but we can always throw sand in the gears
Divemedic notes the cascade of negative feedback from the American public for the Democratic Party’s current actions and obsessions, then asks: So with all of that going on, why are the Democrats continuing down what is obviously a self destructive path? Why do they continue making decisions that are obviously unpopular with the voters?… Continue reading The fix may be in, but we can always throw sand in the gears
Parasites and society
Arthur Sido has an article (excellent, as usual) about what he calls “Kleptoparasitism” in society. Here’s a brief excerpt. When the “Great Society” and “War on Poverty” took shape, a new permanent parasite class formed: people, usually single mothers, who rely in part or in whole on government payments.

With new strains of COVID making their appearance, and the latest monkey-pox scare, I’m sure more verses will be added soon. I invite readers to submit… Continue reading With apologies to Simon and Garfunkel

Has pedophilia become a national disease?
Francis Porretto asks the question. We’ve had a rather substantial amount of evidence to the effect that organized pedophilia is rampant among the higher-ups in government, entertainment, and the media. Jeffrey Epstein was incarcerated for suspicion of it, and died while awaiting trial. Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of it and is serving a long… Continue reading Has pedophilia become a national disease?
So that’s how they do it!
Courtesy of The Silicon Graybeard, we learn where the almond milk we see in the supermarket comes from. Click over to SG’s place for an historic photograph of the first wild almond to be milked, way back in the days of the Wild, Wild West. Savage-lookin’ critter, ain’t it? Peter
I can see I’ve got some tasting to do…
I’m kinda fed up with the world today, and all the bad, nasty, or just plain annoying things going on: so let’s examine something a little more palatable. I’m obliged to Larry Lambert for posting this chart on his blog some weeks ago. Click the image for a larger view. The Amsterdam, Brazil, Colombia,… Continue reading I can see I’ve got some tasting to do…
