Here’s Episode 1 (which explains the background to this silliness), and this is the second such:

Via Insty, I saw this little snippet:
WHO asks people not to attack monkeys over monkeypox
…which makes sense, of course. Killing monkeys because the thing’s named “monkeypox” makes as much sense as burning the town of Lyme to the ground because of tick bites.
However, that doesn’t mean that killing monkeys is a Bad Thing.
You see, monkeys have always got good Press because they look human, with their sweet little faces and tiny fingers and toes; and they look so cute as they swing through the trees, chattering and gibbering away.
In fact, monkeys are as evil — or more so — than humans. They attack human babies, they attack pets, and they’ll attack adult humans, all without reason. They’ll kill each other — even their troop’s own babies, which is why the babies are always clinging to their mothers, by the way — and woe betide any monkey from one troop who wanders into the “territory” of another.
Ask any farmer about monkeys, and you’ll be rewarded by seeing his trigger finger twitch. Farmers shoot them on sight, because monkeys will absolutely devastate crops — a 50-strong troop will empty an orchard of its fruit in the space of a couple of hours, and take half a field of corn in a day.
So whenever I see some animal lover wringing his hands because some wee likkul monkey was shot by some eeeevil hunter, I just laugh. Put said animal lover in the middle of a large troop (of whatever breed), and the odds of survival are about 50-50.
They are truly evil little bastards, only marginally less so than socialists, and like socialists, they should be shot whenever and wherever possible. And if not for monkeypox, there’s always herpes.
Look who’s got all fwightened:
FBI Director Christopher Wray has claimed “deplorable and dangerous” threats have been made against the agency following the raid on former President Donald Trump’s private residence in Florida.
What did you think was going to happen? That Americans would nod approvingly at yet another instance of over-the-top FBI actions? [See Monday’s post for one prime example]
“I’m always concerned about threats to law enforcement,” Wray said. “Violence against law enforcement is not the answer, no matter who you’re upset with.”
Unless law enforcement is behaving more like an occupying army than actual enforcers of the law. Once more, with feeling, J.D. Tucille’s excellent quote:
“If cops continue to play at being an army of occupation, they should expect the subjects to play their role in return. Vive la résistance.”
But by all means, FBI Director Wray, please continue to let your black-clad goons oppress us. Then when it all goes to shit on you — and one day, it must — wonder how people could be so unreasonable and deplorable.
You little Stasi bastard. Don’t trip on the steps going up to the platform.
Let’s listen in to what all those United passengers are saying…
Your thoughts in Comments.
…from Collectors:
It’s not often that Collectors offers a real price bargain — they’re not a discount outlet, by definition — but this most certainly is.
Of all the .22 pistols ever made, the Trailside is the one I’ve lusted after the most. I’ve fired a couple, and each one left me speechless with its match trigger and astounding accuracy. Add Swiss-watch mechanical action and you have, I think, quite possibly the best .22 pistol you can get. And yes, I offered to buy each one from its owner, and both just laughed merrily as they pried their guns from my envious fingers and put them away.
And here’s the point: yeah, $650 is a lot for a .22 — but have you seen the price of .22 pistols recently? Others, of considerably less quality, are selling for about the same nowadays, which makes this a steal at the price.
Aaaargh. Want.
I’m the grocery shopper in our household, not just because New Wife still hasn’t got used to the different brands and such in the U.S., but because as I’ve said before, there’s not much goes on in a Kroger or whatever that I don’t know about.
So you certainly don’t have to tell ME that grocery prices are going through the roof thanks to Bidenflation.
My average spend, or “ring” per visit has typically been around $40 – $70 each week (the upper end if I’m buying a little meat or deli), and it’s been in that ballpark for about the past five years. The only time it would be higher than that was if we were buying for company, i.e. when family or friends were coming round for dinner.
Now?
Since the beginning of the year, I can count on one hand the number of times that my ring has been less than $100 — and that’s after cutting back severely on quantities, buying smaller packs and / or cheaper, buying certain items (e.g. deli or frozen foods) less frequently, using all the tricks of the trade I know from my four decades in the supermarket business to make my grocery dollar stretch further. I probably buy, in item count, about 25% less than I used to buy; and still the average basket ring is over $100.
Now too, I drive about twice a week less frequently than I used to — combining trips to the bank, say, with trips to the supermarket or farmers’ market, trying to stretch the fuel as much as I can, and over a month, I’m probably in the car about a dozen times less than my old average.
Here’s the thing, though: gas prices go up and down, and we’re all used to seeing that. When it comes to grocery prices, however, they never come down. It’s just a fact of life.
Thank you Biden, you motherfucker, you and all your foul little government apparatchiks who have pooled their efforts to make America unaffordable in the Great Reset.
