Good morning, and welcome to still yet another edition of Hunky Hump Day. Let’s get started.
Song of the day.
This is supposed to be Bradley Cooper.
Nice looking ride.
Too bad he can’t afford a decent pair of jeans.
Twitter find.
Might be a repeat.
Last, but not least.
Thank you for your attention, thanks to Pirate’s Cove for the linky love, and y’all have a good day.

How many of these fellows have used their position as highly paid man meat models to sexually abuse women? My guess is “All Of Them”. #metoo #andshit.
Assuming they don’t prefer pulling a Don Lemon, of course.
Don’t forget sphincter abuse as a possibility #andshit
Roomie has preferences that make me feel excluded.
#dadbodsafespace
The guy with bad jeans has not sexually harassed women, I suspect.
We should do a dad bod one. wakey wakey.
Oh goody, Cindy McCain has an opinion piece at the WaPo about her husband, a man of civility. Anyone read it?
Oh drat, I missed it.
Well, someone needs therapy. I don’t think it’s her parents.

Rapinoe senses the limelight fading hence the revelation her daddy issues voted for her imaginary oppressor
What exactly constitutes a “dad bod”? Based on what I’ve read it seems like the definition fluctuates between “I lift weights regularly but I like pizza and beer on Saturdays” to “I haven’t seen my dick in years without a mirror.”
Biceps and beer belly, I think.
so, me?
Of course Rapidhoe’s parents voted for Trump. It’s how they afforded getting her to soccer camp.
AKA the effect of xenoestrogens, processed foods, and a sedentary job on what should be a healthy human male.
Haha, I’m a member of the Sous Vide Dummies group on Facebook. Now they have a mentorship program, where you mentor a less experienced user.
No way anything could go wrong there!
Mentor a less experienced user?
Follow the recipe dipshit.
Some of the questions are a real hoot.
I wonder why Trump is fanning the flames over Greenland. postponing the meeting with Denmark seems silly, but he usually has a reason.
The first episode of Good Eats: The return is online. Chicken Parm. I’m still holding out to watch on TV, but I won’t make it.
I made Chicken Parm last night.
Xenoestrogens. I don’t know what these are but also please don’t tell me because I have enough to worry about already without adding ghostly hormones to the mix KTHXBYE.
Also I had dinner at Waffle House last night and then I came home and took a 10 hour nap.
My life is pretty neato but I’m full of waffles smothered, covered, chunked and capped with poor lifestyle choices.

Pupster, in a nutshell, plastics and soybeans are feminizing you.
And “vegetable oil” is destroying your circulatory system and neurons.
So many fans are all about the message of tool, etc … and yes, it’s all very nice that they don’t sing about stupid stuff – but mainly for me, it’s the music. People get caught up in the message … but w/o the music, it’s nothing.
And, listen to 8 different tool fans regarding the meaning of lyircs, and you’ll get 6 different versions of the meaning, and two who are calling you too stupid to even discuss the issue with.
Way to harsh Pupster’s waffle mellow.
Embrace hard truth.
The PSA of non-educated concern people today is about the burning Amazon rain forest. They apparently want us to talk about it because reasons.
You are forewarned.
What did we do now? Will there be awareness meetings? Descriptive memes? Name calling? Questions about my awareness and intelligience?
I said please don’t tell me.
Boy 1’s food and water phobias are getting worse, he seems to be eating enough but is very skinny, he pretty much refuses anything that is not certified organic non-gmo. We buy gallons of reverse osmosis water in glass jugs, and he uses that to cook, and even rinses the cookware and utensils with it. No plastic storage, we have glass Tupperware with rubber lids. He doesn’t trust us to prepare his food, so it is almost impossible to have a meal together. I hoped this was a phase he was going through but it’s gotten to the point where he is completely obsessed and he’ll get angry if you try to reason with him about it.
Pupster, you eat all the waffles you want.
With whipped butter and real maple syrup and a side of bacon
The other day we were both in the kitchen, I washed my hands and turned to get a towel which was behind him, and he jumped back like I was holding a snake. My hands were dripping wet with tap water, you see.
Thank you CARin and Jimbro. I’m hovering at a comfortable 2 bills for the last couple of years, I think it is all the *scrolls up* xenoestrogens.
See, that’s actually crazy. Not cooking stuff in plastic in the microwave and avoiding canola and cottonseed oil is all I’m talking about.
What does he think is going to happen? Can you validate some of his habits, while pointing out that others are just OCD?
My boss is bringing me bahn mi for lunch today, if you are ever in the mood for a Vietnamese sandwich you should give it a try WITH EXTRA SOY SAUCE.
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/p/AF1QipNYSKZQseaonA0t99t5lElmeOMXJywMnHWOj-zq=w592-h440-n-k-no
Don’t see many fat Vietnamese people
Always want to try one, but always get Pho. It’s so good!
He won’t discuss it, and can’t defend it with facts other than “I read it somewhere”, and will get angry about the most innocuous questions about his routines. We try and be accomidating but he doesn’t appreciate the efforts, to the point where I’m worried we are just facilitating the mania.
Pray for Waffles.
I wonder what’s in the water.
My hands were dripping wet with tap water, you see.
What does he shower with?
Jay, the place we go to fries the pork crispy, but they are stingy with it so we order double meat.
I don’t mean my question snarkily. I’m truly curious what could be in the water that is that repulsive to him.
Showers and laundry are problematic as well, mostly because of the soap and detergents.
True story……sad. But true.
I have a cousin who’s just a few months younger than me. Other than one semester at a juco when he was 18, he never left home. Until his parents died. He’s in a cut rate assisted living facility now. When we moved him out of his parents house we found mountains of used toilet paper and q-tips and hundreds, if not thousands of empty bottles of hydrogen peroxide and isopropyl alcohol. That was his means of personal hygiene. Yeah, he crazy. So was his dad. And eventually his mom.
It started with fluoride and just kept growing to include chemical additives and heavy metals and impurities in the plumbing and on and on.
One of our now-retired Pediatricians sort of went off the rails near the end of his practice with the fluoride stuff. Nice guy, from the Philippines, practiced close to his entire career in Bangor.
Circling back to jay’s comment about Trump canceling the Denmark visit about Greenland, I’m also wondering what’s going on with that. He obviously has something in mind not obvious from the cheap seats. Stray voltage? An elaborate scheme? Article 25 fodder?

Kaley Cuoco is Harley Quinn in this R-rated series
FINALLY hearing about the Amazon Rain Forest being burned.
THANK god.
Faaaack. Sky is boiling around us. Thunder and lightning nearby. I think we’re going to lose power. It’s 80% humidity. Pray for Oso.
Ooooo, “The Planet’s Lungs”™ are burning
80%? Oso melts at 15%
Jimbro, too bad it’s a cartoon. I’d like to see Kaley Cuoco dressed as Harley Quinn.
I think I’m up to 12 on the Amazon rain forest deal.
A quick click or two and you can read that the amazon has fires EVERY year and that this year is really not much different from any years, and actually a little bit smaller.
Other than the H2 I’ve heard no news about rain forest fires
A man can dream
https://tinyurl.com/yxq5r64y
That’s because, as Car In noted, it ain’t really news. Might as well pass off “ARMADILLO BODY COUNT ON HIGHWAY SYSTEM CLIMBS” as Pulitzer material.
How can you say it’s not important?
Also, we aren’t hearing about the fires in the Arctic Circle!
This is frightening and sad. I see CNN wrote the article but you are right that it is not getting enough news coverage just like we are not hearing about the fires in the Arctic Circle.
Serves me right for commenting from ignorance. Shoulda saved the fake news fake headline for something deserving.
Mostly it’s a single meme that’s being passed around, but I just saw they have another one about it making the rounds. THE WORD DOESN’T care.
Our Amazon rainforest is burning at a record rate due to illegal logging.
Is it ALL logging that causes fires, or just the illegal kind? And how can removal of fuel cause fires?
I’ll wait.
Also, a lot of the fires in Brazil (not the entire Amazon – those numbers aren’t up) were intentionally set. So wtf is wrong with the people of Brazil? Are the stupid or something?
/just asking questions
I suspect that they mean the practice of slash and burn agriculture, where farmers are removing large areas of jungle to plant crops.
Loggers smoke….
Loggers burning the forests.
Yep, that checks out. Let’s roll with it.
The rain happened here. Paula and Ben took the Jeep to Bar Harbor this morning, top down. Hopefully they put it up before the deluge. No response to my text so they may be doing it RIGHT NOW
That should be a direct question. “How are the loggers causing fires?”
And … “you’re addressing your concerns to the WORLD, but it’s Brazil and Brazilians who are doing this … should we invade your country?”
If they can’t be responsible enough to take care of the rainforest … just saying …
I haven’t seen the stat that the fires aren’t any worse than normal.
Maybe we should buy Brazil? I hear Venezuela is getting near their bottom selling price.
Coffee and chocolate lovers, your coffee beans and cocoa beans are disappearing.
You got a point about coffee, looks like Vietnam and Columbia will have to step up production. But most chocolate comes from Africa, so.
Also, fire is a transient event. All that shit you’re talking about can be regrown successfully in the burned areas in a short time.
Not really sure what my ‘awareness’ can do for the people and animals being displaced, unless Brazil is formally asking for US help. A post on social media is a weird way to do that.
There is never going to be a shortage of chicken littles nor a limit to the number of life’s events that can be classified as an existential crisis. It’s just a part of th human condition that the rest of us have to live with.
OMG!!11!! We’re running out of caulk!!!
Bah, unpossible. Caulk is plentiful. Caulk shortages are extremely localized events.
People just want something to believe in.
What was the thesis of that book by that guy? I think it was called ‘Man’s Search for Meaning’ by Victor Frankel. Yeah, that book.
Believe in yourself. Fuck most everything else.
And Mare has a stockpile of caulk so we’re good.
My favorite is the global phosphorus shortage that is being caused by pig farming.
Americans need to give up beef. That’s a fav of mine.
I’m kinda sick of being punished for everyone else’s sins. I beat myself up too much over my own failings. Only one person was ever fit to take the sins of others onto Himself, and He was a special case.
“organic”
This is just one guy. I bet the majority is fake.
“Prosecutors say Constant falsely marketed non-organic corn and soybeans as certified organic on a massive scale. His sales amounted to 7 percent of organic corn grown in the U.S. in 2016 and 8 percent of the organic soybeans.”

Stripping away actual rainforest can’t be replaced quickly. Some of the fires being referred to probably aren’t actual rainforest.
Forests don’t generally burn in the rain.

So, what should we talk about now?
Well, your mom is a popular…topic.
Let’s talk about Mare’s caulk.
Crazy storms today.
We lost power for about 30 minutes.
It was horrible.

Mare loves Leon, mostly because he’s effing smart and cuts to the significant.
Hotspur, go caulk yourself.
What?

That’s why they invented napalm……
You people don’t understand. #22% humidity tried to kill me. I’ve lost 3 days of work due to dehydration. Combo with passive aggressive comments from Mom.
Been watching the Little League World Series.

It’s amazing how the media and democrats are cheering on and actively pursuing a recession.
Backsquated 215 today. Which means i am probably back squat your mom
Ace covered this, but I did laugh at Rancid Tlaib backing out of the Israel trip because you can’t call it a political junket and get some lobby group to pay for it if it’s for personal reasons.
Dieticians especially recommend probiotics.
