Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day. Feel free to push this poat down in favor of a salute to our 41st President. In the meantime, it’s time for a fresh cup of coffee and a little ogling. First, the song of the day.
I hadn’t heard this in a long time, and I remembered the video fondly. Kids asked, “Who is that?”, and I answered, “The guy who asks for more cowbell.” Go with what you know.
Now for the hunks.
Too much tattoo?
The rose is a nice touch.
Windy.
Solemn.
Nice smile.
That will do for today. Thank you for your attention, thanks to Pirate’s Cove for the linky love every week, and y’all have a good day.

I could have slept in, but of course, I involuntarily woke up early. I foresee a nap today.
Most of the Bush funeral coverage I’ve heard on NPR while driving around has emphasized his bipartisan nature and used that to criticize Trump. Not by name, just with oblique references that leave no doubt in the listener’s mind. A “dog whistle” if you will …
They sure weren’t this kind when Bush was president.
So some of the water cooler talk yesterday was about a black lady astronaut, Jeannette Epps, who was removed from a crew assignment after completing training in Russia. Astronaut’s brother had declared on social media that NASA was being racist, which was stupid because they replaced her with a Hispanic, and if NASA was racist, they wouldn’t have picked her as a candidate in the first place, much less paid $$$$ for months of training. Epps still hasn’t been assigned to another crew. She retweeted Kaepernick, so that turned into a discussion of what constitutes a Hatch Act violation.
they were lockstep in condemnation of his every breath when he was in office
mueller should open an investigation on her –
maybe she’s the russia link
I did laugh at the liberal co-worker who thought Trump should be prosecuted for Hatch Act violations. The president is specifically exempt, he’s allowed to promote himself while at work. Dumb ass.
Bi-partisan is another word for a caver. When you hear that term, conservatives have lost. Bet on it.

Yep. Every positive the liberal media makes in regards to Bush is honestly nothing but a backward slam on Trump. The Atlantic pretty much came out and did that the other day. Remember when we had a classy republican president?
wakey wakey
Why did they pull Epps from the crew?
Anyone who links Kaepernick has poor judgment.
If I ask to fuck your wife, and you say no, bipartisanship is when we agree that I’ll pay you for the privilege.
NASA’s not saying why they pulled her. She has said that it wasn’t because of medical issues (there was a rumor she was pregnant).
this is actually funny.
if one of our local colleges does something like this i’ll go just to point and snigger
“https://www.thecollegefix.com/university-hosts-critical-look-at-whiteness-forum/”
I figure either the Kaepernick thing or she wasn’t getting along with either the rest of the crew or the ground controllers.
Astronaut Chris Hadfield wrote in his book about the difference between a Shuttle flight and an ISS mission. You can put up with a lot of crap when you know you’ll be home in two weeks, but a six month mission is entirely different.
i read epps wiki –
her brother says it’s because of racism and misogyny

Dune is a great read/series.
Interesting Bible and koran parallels

It’s all been downhill since the Hamster Dance.
The Dune series was great. Three books was just perfect for that tale. I don’t know what all this bollocks is I keep hearing about other Dune books. I swear, first it’s this BS about Highlander sequels, now this crap…
So, what are your skills?
We’re so misogynistic we replaced a woman with another woman.
Should have replaced her with a transwoman. Because giving the job to an anatomical-if-mutilated male is not misogyny.
Jay beat me to it. Shut your whore mouths.
It’s all been downhill since the Hamster Dance.
I’m more of a Numa Numa fan.
I’m used to beating things, mare.
Never read the Dune series. Guess I have something on the list.
Honestly, Dune alone was fine. No need for sequels.
A book series that I really liked was Star of the Guardians. In many ways a Star Wars ripoff, but better, IMHO. The characters were much more interesting, and the universe was as well.
Series I’m listening to now: Nick Webb Legacy Fleet series.
http://www.nickwebbwrites.com/p/books.html
future earth invasion. 3rd book Victory is really good.
I’m reading your mom Lolita. She loves it.
As I was driving in I was thinking up snippets for my new sci-fi book, Urak-Torg: Alpha Male Space Barbarian.
I re-read Dune last year. If it had been written today, that one book would have been expanded into a 3 to 5 book series.
I am reading “Lethal White”, one of the books by J. K. Rowling under a pseudonym. One eyeroll political moment (I would guess she couldn’t help herself) but otherwise really good.
Lethal white is a syndrome in horses where the horse has two copies of a particular recessive gene, is pure white but the intestines don’t develop properly and it dies of colic not long after birth. I am three-quarters of the way through the book and haven’t figured out why that matters yet.
Maybe White = Weapon, since it’s Rowling.
Is one of the characters Riggs or Murtaugh?
IIRC, the first two books of Dune form a complete story, and then Herbert’s publisher begged for more content.
I only own the first two books.
Urak-Torg: Alpha Male Space Barbarian.
I’ll buy it just for the Frazetta-inspired cover.
Main character is Cormoran Strike, detective. The other Cormoran Strike books are pretty good, too. “Cuckoo’s Calling”, “Silkworm” (that one had some gross moments, IIRC), and “Career of Evil” (LOT of Blue Oyster Cult references).
Huh. Apparently BBC has made a “Strike” TV series. Will have to look for that.
Urak-Torg met General Trammodious’ steady gaze with his own. The hanger bay was quiet, but every crewman could hear the mental clang and sparks as steel met steel between the two men. “Barbarian, I could have my men kill you, but I will grant you the honor of a challenge for this world in the old ways. We will settle this under the bar.”
Urak-Torg nodded and grinned. “Excellent. As a courtesy, old man, we’ll start easy. Shall we say, squats at 500 lbs?”
Books that should have stopped with one. Ender’s game. DUne.
Outlander should have ended after the second. Maybe third.
Fucking Dingell.
How about we abolish political royalty. Or should we wait until your wife – who took your seat – retires?
I’m about to lose my shit.
Debbie Dingell is an inspiration for hookers everywhere that if you blow the right guy you too can get into congress.
Debbie Dingell blew John Dingell? Who’da thunk?”
How about we abolish dumbasses from voting for dumbasses? You pay zero federal income tax, you do not get to vote.
You can’t pass a civics test, you lose your right to vote.
Dingell’s corrupt son of a bitch father was in office from 1933 to 1955. Dingell won a special election in ’55 to fill his father’s seat because the old fuck died in office. Then Dingell went on to become the longest serving congress crook of all time. Now his cum guzzling wife fills the seat.
The people in this district are shitheads.
You can’t pass a civics test, you can’t run for office.
TERM LIMITS MOTHERFUCKERS!!
Urak-Torg hefted his space ax and star lazor and walked calmly into the Temple of the Space Whores. The pulsing light from the binary quantum stars overhead scattered through the hyper-crystal windows and reflected off gilded surfaces, acres of rich cloth, and through a soft swirling smoke before playing over his blood and sweat-soaked bare chest. Somewhere inside this twisted labrynth of steel and rock his prize waited, the Queen of the Space Whores. He would collar her and take her back to his space rocket as his conquest. But first he would have to find her, and the hive would not make it easy.
Writhing shadows along the walls and from behind pillars multiplied, and he heard the sounds of figures running along the floors and walls to fill the chamber. From somewhere in the distance came the screech of more Space Whores, and their Cyber-Witch masters.
They would however, make it fun.
“Come to us, Urak-Torg.” He heard their psyonic whispers in his mind. “Give us your seed. Give us your essence…” Lesser men would have been seduced by those whispers, the promises in visions that flickered in an out of his mind’s eye. A lesser man, who hadn’t been trained in the ways of discipline since childhood by the monks of the Crab Nebula, who hadn’t spent years honing his mind against psyonic attacks with and against the best telepaths in the Empire, who hadn’t united the twenty Pirate clans into a vast armada and led it to victory after victory across the Periphery before raiding all the way to the capital city-world of the Empire itself.
Urak-Torg was no lesser man.
“Come to us, Urak-Torg,” their whispers had become more insistent, more sinister. “Give us your seed. Give us your essance…”
His grip tightened on his weapons, and he smiled. He was going to give it to them, good and hard.
I’ve long wondered if we could implement an auction for voting rights. You buy the right to vote in any election that year, which also gives you the right to stand for election, and requires you to be available for jury duty.

Am I the only one not mourning George Bush?
I’m not glad he’s dead. I just don’t mourn a man I thought was a jackass – who raised a couple of jackass sons.
We got Slick Willie because of this jackass. And we got Chocolate Jesus because of his jackass older son.
He was an honorable man, not the best president, and part of the political elite in this country that I’ve grown to detest (the “institution” of political elite, that is). How is he any different from john fucking Dingell? These fuckfaces have lost respect for the average american, because they think we’re stupid and can be manipulated by them.
fuck them. Bush lived a long full life. Nothing to be particularly sad about.
Hotspur, I don’t begrudge him the fine sendoff. McCain didn’t deserve it, Bush 41 does. The words are a little over the top, but funerals these days seem to be premature canonizations no matter what.
I missed what country Mulroney was talking about with “the smaller the country, the longer the speech”.
Why are you so afraid of a socialist economy?
I’m with roamy. I don’t hate Bush like I did McCain, but I hold no love for King Bush and the princes.
Re: political elite – was glad that Jeb! didn’t get the nomination for that exact reason. Jeb! probably voted for Hillary.

This is exactly how I feel.
Bush was what I call a “first-gen” post-war conservative. He was from a wealthy political dynasty, but from a time when there was still an expectation of certain behavior in public and of service to your country. His views were no doubt shaped by WWII and the need to confront communist expansion. The first-gens saw a need for international alliances to defend against expansionist fascist and communist nations, and to aggressively export Western values.
The problem is that the world that shaped their views and the conservative institutions that they built no longer exists. It stopped existing in the early-nineties, and disappeared completely on 9/11. The problem is that the second-gen conservatives (those who became involved in politics in the early eighties through mid aughts) continued to ape the first-gen beliefs without really understanding why those beliefs existed, and so were unable to adapt to the world once the USSR fell.
And take his fat, pro-abortion wife with him.

The Clintons were a power couple, but were not able to establish a dynasty. If Hillary had won then Chelsea would have been given a seat in Congress, while Huma would have been groomed to be Hillary’s heir.
And how do you raise such a drip as Jeb!?
No one who works 40 hours a week should be living in poverty
Ocasio-Cortez made some comment about how she has no kids, and I uncharitably thought, “Dear Lord, let’s keep it that way.”
He was not a conservative.
He was a “compassionate conservative”, which means wearing a “Kick Me” sign whenever Congress is in session.
Is the black minister the same one who was at Harry and Meghan’s wedding?
And I especially don’t enjoy listening to people try to say nice things about him, who hated his guts when he was in office, just so they can say nasty stuff about the current president.
Fuck him and fuck all of the rest of them.
“Let’s reach across the aisle so they can stab us in the back” conservative.
He was a compassionate jackass who promised to not raise taxes, then when the democrats snookered him with budget deficits, he raised taxes instead of standing up to them.
And he involved us in a war we had no business fighting. But then he was too chickenshit to finish what he started.
Then his jackass son started two more wars we never should have been involved in. And we lost both.
I made the point to Pat the other day that Bush came from an age where politics were a tad different. While the left was being overtaken by progressives, conservatives just kept on. Bush’s years in office was the beginning of the turning. The old school sees decorum and acting nice – not realizing that the left has found a way to use that against us.
And that’s why they hate Trump. Their inability to accurately see the warfare we’re in. And their stubborn adherence to old school conservatism AND, I hate to say it, believe in the political class superiority.
In related news, apparently Bill Kristol’s magazine is done gone broke.

You would have thought they would have realized that after the attacks on Mitt Romney, the most milquetoast candidate ever painted as the next Hitler. It’s always Hitler, racist, misogynist, homophobe, bigot, xenophobe, gonna put y’all back in chains bullshit. Trump says fuck it and enjoys the fight.
I try to pray for Trump every day, that he be protected from assassination, that he makes good decisions, and for God to give him strength and grace.
“You can’t pass a civics test, you lose your right to vote”
This is a movement I can get behind. Have you ever watched those Mark Dice or Jesse Watters vids on YouTube where they interview average people on the street? People are fucking dumb.
I really like Mitt Romney. But he’s a terrible politician.
I think it’s the media, though. They lie almost exclusively for political gain and then insist that they don’t.
And people believe it.

Ugh, Insty has been posting a link to this article. It’s completely wrong. Lowering the drinking age won’t win over younger voters, because they won’t care. Some 18 year old isn’t going to think, “Hey, the GOP pushed to let me have a beer, I guess I’ll rethink their policy on corporate tax rates and abortion!”
If you want young people to vote conservative, then you need young people with a stake in society. When they have careers, families, homes, and the prospect of a better future, they are less likely to blow it all up in the name of “equality” or “fairness” or “social justice”. When they see themselves as part of a community, they don’t want to destroy that community.
Shit, I forget the link.
Young people – too many of them – live in la la land.
My son – who is conservative – even said the other say something about how things are harder now. He was referring to renting a house – how hard it is.
And I explained to him that when I was young, people either 1) got married (generally) before 25, or 2) had a room mate. They didn’t have an apartment they paid for by themself. They went from home, to college, to roommates or marriage. They didn’t play around until they were 30.
So, the fact that you can’t pay for some super nice condo, on your own, when you’re 24 … isn’t anything new.

I remember the left being against Reagan, but not to this degree. Maybe I’m misremembering it.
And he involved us in a war we had no business fighting. But then he was too chickenshit to finish what he started.
Rush talked about this yesterday. Said it was Colon Powell who advised him not to finish it….which could have prevented Jr. from his escapade.
I supported both wars and still do. I think trying to maintain sanctions on Iraq in the long run would have been worse for the US and the ME.
Bush 41 was a better president than Dukakis would have been.
So, the fact that you can’t pay for some super nice condo, on your own, when you’re 24 … isn’t anything new.
Even back then, we KNEW, even when we got married right out of college, we couldn’t pay for a super nice condo right away…that we had to have a few years of working long hours to build up to it.
How many young people today are willing to put in the long hours…to build experience and a reputation (which = more responsibility and higher pay within the company) in order to have the good things in life.
My daughter’s boyfriend is a good ‘kid’ but meh as far as getting his ass in gear about anything. Were he ambitious with a plan and working hard for that plan, I would not refer to him as ‘kid’.
Sometimes my kids complain about ‘boo hoo, I have to work more than 40 hours’ and I’m like ‘welcome to adulthood, so quityerbitchin.’
Some ‘splodey for XBrad, in case he shows up.
These kids didn’t live through Jimmy Carter. Coming up then without the newest iphone or other gadget, was a lot harder than they’ll ever know….but they’re heading for a huge thump on the head if they continue to support parasites like Sanders or the Cortez loon.
The young folk today do have a number of legit beefs. H1B and H2B have taken a lot of bottom rung jobs off the table, and white males are actively discriminated against in a of lot jobs, particularly in government work.
I think it’s about to swing the other way, Leon.
A lot of managers are learning the lessons of progressive hiring from the past 30 years.
Alex, what you’re thinking of re: Bush Sr. was once called “noblesse oblige”.
Don’t mistake what it implies about his thinking.
The old school sees decorum and acting nice – not realizing that the left has found a way to use that against us.

I call bullshit on this. Oh, Bush had decorum alright, “to the ladies and gentlemen across the aisle.” But to us conservatives? He couldn’t stand us- most of the Kennebunkport ilk think we’re rubes. I believe one historian said that Bush didn’t like Reagan politics either (too conservative). Stupid Bush, Reagan had to have him to secure Texas. Then we were stuck with the Bush Oligarchy.
I think we need a presence in the middle east…Iraq….NOT AFGHANISTAN. History shows you can’t win there. But Iraq, yes. We need a force there if nothing else to magnet the nutty jihadis there instead of here.
I’ve seen that too, MJ. Ford’s selloff of the AV program involved shedding a lot of H1Bs, and my sister the evil HR lady says none of her analogues in the area will touch them. It’s a work in progress, though.
I retweeted that yesterday, Roamy.
We should have picked a Christian city in Iraq and just set up a permanent base there.
I often think about how things would be different if Fat Bush or Cooked were elected.
I think the stuff out of their immediate control would have largely played out the same, albeit it would have been spun differently. Crooked would have been ‘tough and steely’ for using tear gas at the border.
But the domestic and foreign policy moves put in motion by Trump would never have happened.
Weak economy, tepid growth, and the condescension from our ‘friends’ would have continued. China and the EU would still be ordering the lobster and sticking us with the check.
Ok. I miss a lot on Twitter because of their stupid algorithms.
There’s also a lot less willingness to hire women and minorities lately unless you really know them well.
There’s a stigma and no one wants to deal with it.
Maybe I’m misreading it but I see people constantly leaning on connections rather than looking for talent.
I think your mom has talent.
There’s also a lot less willingness to hire women and minorities lately unless you really know them well.
I hear that — carefully phrased — from my sister a lot. Too many departments wrecked by “unfire-able” people. So they just don’t hire people like that if they can avoid it. All the accusations of racism are resulting in… racism.
Crooked hillary would have gotten us in another war and she would have continued open borders Zero widened.
Hillary is a cunt.
Hmmm, Jeb would have gone along with amnesty too.
Jeb! is a cunt.
Hotspur, when you told your story of dinner with your lib friends, I wondered if you periodically slid ‘hillary is a cunt’ somewhere.
Jeb may have bigger moobs than BitchFace.
Russia would have annexed Ukraine on day 5 of the Hillary admin, and we’d be in a hot war with them by now.
Russia would have been sold, through the Clinton Foundation, the rest of our uranium by month six.
It’s okay, beasn, they’d have enriched it and given it back by now.
Successful SpaceX launch, but they cut away from the video of the first stage after it started spinning. It landed in the water. Dragon is on its way to ISS.
I expressed that the main reasons I voted for Trump were because no way I wanted Hillary as president, and upcoming Supreme Court picks.
Calling her a cunt would have been a bit indelicate for that group.
What was with Jeb’s wife’s hair? Imitating Trump’s combover?
/catty
I remember attending a wine tasting at the same friend’s house, with basically the same people before Cankles got the nomination. There were women there who were the first to start a Hillary fan club right after the Clenis got elected. They had buttons on that dated back to 2000.
Dipshits.
Jeb’s wife looks like a goblin. I’m sorry, she does. I don’t get what happened there.
Alex, what you’re thinking of re: Bush Sr. was once called “noblesse oblige”.
Don’t mistake what it implies about his thinking.
I never did. His thinking about the world and US policy was likely shaped by WWII and the threat of communism, as well as the Great Depression. Most of the first-gen post-war political class were. They saw the need for international alliances against international aggression, as well as the danger to states from disaffected working classes who would be exploited by communist rabble-rousers.

We should have picked a Christian city in Iraq and just set up a permanent base there.
By 2009 Iraq was stabilized, if still fragile. We needed two brigades to help support the Iraqi Army, continue training, and serve as “al-Ameriki”, the neutral outsider whom everyone could trust to serve as an honest broker.
With Afghanistan, I’ve long thought that we should have sealed off a valley, adopted all the war orphans, and spent ten years raising them in US run orphanages with American values and an strong practical education, as well as military training once they were older.
Actually, I was referring to how an attitude that says “the greater owe the lesser” innately defines you as thinking you’re “greater”…
I really really want this but it costs more than a recliner I’ve been eyeing. It’s about 3.5″ x 6″.

I’d love to do a commercial where a black kid pushing a lawn mower house to house is turned away because the owner has already hired a lawn crew of illegals. Later, as a teenager, he’s turned away from a fast food job because all the hires are illegals. Finally, as a young man he’s applying for an office job, only to be told that they’re moving the work to Pakistan. As he walks out he’s joined by the other young workers carrying their stuff in boxes.

I don’t think that Bush necessarily thought that. Certainly I don’t think W ever did.

Yes. Confusion is always good for children. Effing moron.
Remind me, does she even have children? Are they fucked in the head too?
Yes, I think she has a son. But when I saw him years ago he had long hair. Unusually long hair for a boy.
Dion has three boys. The last two were for sure IVF. All long haired and she made mention, as it relates to her gender neutral b.s., that when they went to Disney – I think it was Disney – they were interested in the princesses and Minnie Mouse.
Not that I have a problem with long hair on boys. Especially if they swing around a broadsword and wear a kilt.
Leon is right, Celine is effed in the head. She’s around a lot of faggots because of her industry and the weird becomes normal. Plus, living in Las Vegas would ruin anyone.

Don’t worry, I’m sure that they’ll still maintain viable interest in their supply of blue-haired angry feminists and transwomen.
Ha, I love how people are going after Trump about tariffs. Hey genius, he’s not coming up with random tariffs, they are in response to tariffs against us! Just saw another one by Shapiro.
Tariffs don’t work, and only hurt those who impose them.
That’s why every country we trade with has them. Buncha masochists.
Leon, that’s really their argument: that the Chinese are too stupid to realize that they are hurting themselves.
The Chinese were taking advantage of the fact that we were being stupid. That is changing.

It’s not just a response to other countries tariffs, but also subsidies for their exports, for certain industries, as well as Chinese intellectual property theft. And let’s be honest, they’re a way to hurt the Chinese to get them to rethink some of their geopolitical moves, demonstrating that they need us more than we need them.
re: herbie walker and Reagan.
it was well known that bush despised Reagan.
hw also opened my eyes to how much the establishment repugs detested ppl like me.
while he was better than some before and most after – he was still part of the reason why we are in the predicament we are today. he was inconstant in his support of John Q. American; his failure to run a campaign against clinton while refusing to yield to someone who would carry Reagan’s banner is proof positive of his duplicitous nature.
his service to country stands on it’s own – but i believe his actions in politics proved his elitism and progressive spirit. For that I believe he was dishonorable.
Tariffs work when the targeted country believes they don’t work.
Let’s say Leonistan produces more mushrooms than they can consume. They’d like to sell these surplus mushrooms to Hotspurland.
Hotspurland says, sure we’ll buy those mushrooms. But We’d like to sell you some bags that are meant for consuming gentlemen’s sausages.
Leonistan says no thanks, we have plenty of bags of dicks here so we’ll have to put a tariff on yours.
Hotspurland says ok. We’ll agree to that tariff and don’t worry about any retaliation on your mushroom exports. Tariffs don’t work. We like those mushrooms. Too bad you won’t buy our bags of dicks free and clear.
Leonistan wins.
Fin.
Also, I know almost nothing about macroeconomics so I could be wrong.
The point is that Hotspur has a lot of bags of dicks to eat tonight.
Mare and Jam are simpatico.
Hotspurland repacks the bags of dicks, and exports them to MJania in bowls. They are a delicacy there. Highly sought after.
MJs summary isn’t that far off. Except that Leonistan uses the increased tax revenue from selling more mushrooms to Hotspurland to fund the development of its dickbag industry, while imposing a tariff on all imported bags of dicks in order to prop up its dickbag industry. In Hotspurland, the dick bagging industry finds itself competing against an increased number of firms, due to the influx of former shroomheads who are now out of work. This drives down wages and increases output, but not enough to ensure full employment.
MJania quickly passes the MJGSPSAAFPOLGSPS.
MJania Gentelmen’s Sausage Packaging Specialists Affordability Act for the Protection of Local Gentleman’s Sausage Packaging Specialists–which imposes a 25% tariff on any dicks in any type of container originating from outside of MJania.
The MJGSPSAAFPOLGSPS also legalizes weed and promotes MJ to king for his natural life.
It also authorizes a national competition to recognize the best ‘your mom’ joke annually, which shall be known as the Hotspur Prize.
It’s all in the fine print that no one reads.
There are a lot of good families that will go hungry if we don’t have a strong domestic dickbag industry, and they have strategic wartime importance to my nation. What we did was in the best interest of our people.
Meanwhile, Hotspurland’s mushroom farmers and FUCKED.
Mareika is a huge importer of bags of dicks, but they don’t impose any tariffs. They want to keep the supply plentiful to keeps costs down.
Their main export is hoses – mostly to Jamayca.
LOL. That was clever.
How do I get in on this sweet, sweet dickbag money?
I’ve already called your mom, now what?
And this is why it grinds the gears of a globalist so. Inherent in a tariff is the idea of “good for our nation, our people”. If there’s an “us” in some sense other than the cloud people/dirt people dichotomy they subscribe to, than there is assuredly a “them”, and “them” might include, well, them.
Thor: Ragnarok had a line about this, delivered by Sir Anthony Hopkins no less, as Asgard is about to be destroyed. “Asgard is not a place, Asgard is where our people stand”. Embedded in that is a radical, ‘dangerous’ idea of a group identity not tied to economic class or land masses, but to nation. The etymology of the word itself means something like “born together”. Destroying nations has been the grand, leftist plan of the last 100 years, and they are so, so close that they are getting careless in their rush to finish the project.
It’s both progressives and libertarians. The former because nation states inevitably are unequal and the latter because they are opposed to the idea of any restrictions to the movement of people or goods anywhere in the world.
Mareika runs a trade deficit. No dickbag money for them.
The 41st president of Hotspurland was Your Mom.
We laid her to rest today. She’s used to it.
No restriction on movement of peoples is an asinine notion. If you have locks on your doors and believe that you should beat yourself on the head with a brick until your pain outweighs your cognitive dissonance.
you pharquaars de la hose are bringing the funny today
” the latter because they are opposed to the idea of any restrictions to the movement of people or goods anywhere in the world.”
many libertarians would consider that a gross mis-characterization of the concept of freedom of association.
The Reason crowd is pretty uniform on the Open Borders bullshit. That and legal weed seem to be their highest priorities.
I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard at an economics lesson. I would have paid a lot more attention in class if there had been your mom jokes.
many libertarians would consider that a gross mis-characterization of the concept of freedom of association.
Freedom of association doesn’t trump a nation’s right to defend its territory or control who and what enters or leaves. The open borders concept denies both of those things by its very nature.
Yea, mom and sis were praising Sr today, iffen your curious about where he stands among the John Stewart groupies
Once you agree that a nation has the right to prohibit certain people or goods from crossing its borders, the rest is, as the old joke goes, “haggling over the price”.
Have y’all watched Narcos Season 4 yet?
Mothership has a list of the nations that have refused to sign on to the no borders BS.
Brilliant.

Narcos Wafers are the worst.
🤣🤣🤣 We used Neccos wafers as the Eucharist when we would play Mass.
I have to pack about 20 clocks next week.
Not all at once like your mom.
Just pulled the brisket from the hot tub, 129 for 72 hours. This is right before shocking it, before it goes into the fridge for smoking this weekend. Pinch test says very very very tender.
Grass fed brisket from world’s smallest cow
Minnesota cow, so it must have been a miniature.
Neiman Marxist to pay her interns $15 an hour
I’m sure there is 0 volunteer help.

Is “playing Mass” anything like playing “Priest and Alterboy”?
Negative, Ghost Rider. We weren’t quite enlightened.
Dan was the world’s worst altarboy. His parents were engaged. He wasn’t allowed to be alone with any adults. I tease him that he wasn’t quite abusable Catholic Lottery cha ching
TMI. There was a spider in my shower this AM. Big enough that my blind ass could see. I took a Navy Shower. (Tits, pits, and ass, sponge bath) I forgot to turnoff the space heater and the bathroom light. I was so afraid of the spider, I forgot the basics of fire protocol. I NEVER forget fire protocol
Jay, that is the worst food pic ever. Brisket cooked in a sous vide bag looks like medical waste. Please show the money pic when it is all done! I bet that will be juicy as all get out, 72 hours holy crap.
I still don’t know why MA is my pic, but she is so adorable I enjoy seeing her. 15 year old Dachshund.
Jay, that brisket pic looks exactly like the picture my mom took of my post-surgical incision right after I had my intestinal operation 3 years ago.
She’s a cutie pie! So serious in that pic tho.
Fedco seed catalog is out. Just FYI. You can start planning your gardens now, guys.
Guys?
Wow, a little over 2 days into our annual holiday fundraiser and we just hit $10K! It’s going to be a good Christmas for local charities. Knife crowd is super generous.
Lauraw, she is the softest dog in the history of dogs.
I love you guys. WTG Pepe. BTW we are all in by prepping to your regional news trending .
Oso, are they going to release the psycho mass murderer guy? Nehemiah Griego. He only killed 5 family members, and he feels bad about it now.
Debate everyone’s reactionary parents.
