Horrible, unpleasant stuff
!SCIENCE!
...yeah, this is going to end well.
...see above.
Darwin Award contenders:
...betcha never saw that one coming now, did ya?
...cops probably pushed him off, just to save on paperwork.
Doctors… what would we do without them?
...cause of death not pneumonia or smallpox, then? [/surprised look]
I see that peerless vocalist Dave Clayton-Thomas (Blood Sweat & Tears) recently passed away.
Damn. I saw him and BS&T live in Johannesburg back in the late 1970s, and they blew the doors off the theater.
...”demands”… from whom, exactly? (Note: Obama and Biden aren’t in office anymore, asshole.)
...only eight years, for someone who wanted to assassinate a Supreme Court Justice?
...now that’s what I’m talking about. And still in Texas:
AND:
...yeah, this is the socialist ninny running for a U.S. Senate seat, in Texas.
...and the followup headline we’d all like to see, but won’t, sadly:
...now wouldn’t that be special?
...not exactly the proper “Lamb of God” behavior, is it? Anyway, I’m thinking of mutton stew now.
...I’d just love to see the numbers behind that assertion — especially when compared to likely “tremendous numbers” of job losses to this new magical fad.
…only actual humans can qualify? Buzz Lightyear and Woody sue for anthropocentric bias.
...can’t wait to see the MTBF* numbers on this little trend. If we’re ever allowed to see them, that is.
...from bad to terrible, or from terrible to really horrible? I report, you decide.
...let me know when the orange jumpsuits are issued. Otherwise… [yawn]
...see above.
And in Show Biz (I think) News:

*MTBF: Mean Time Between Failures
I really, really don’t need news like this:
Jeremy Clarkson has revealed he has been diagnosed with ‘aggressive’ cancer in a devastating clip for his Amazon Prime Video show.
FFS.
I have to say that the past week or so has had news of little or no interest to me, and even less worth commenting on.
Yeah, Trump has finally got Iran to sign a “deal” which will do something or other, but I suspect that those assholes have no intention of following any of its terms — at least, those terms which would prevent it from continuing their jihad against Israel and the West — so I suspect that at some point we’ll have to go back and do it all over again.
And the Brits are totally fucked under Labour — we all knew that anyway — but I see little light at the end of that particular tunnel until a proper alternative can be found for the Socialists. Don’t hold yer breath. If we think that repatriating the millions of illegal aliens Over Here is difficult, it will be exponentially more difficult Over There with the millions of “refugees” they’ve welcomed in and allowed to infest their once-proud society.
I don’t care about Europe as a whole, anyway, so whatever happens to them will happen — they brought it all on themselves anyway — and yeah, whatever.
Everyone keeps saying that China’s economy is going to collapse soon, but I think that’s bullshit. As the man said: there’s a lot of ruin in a nation, and anyone thinking there’ll be some sudden cataclysmic collapse is deluding themselves. (They said that about the Soviet Union too, and it did collapse; but I see no evidence of a Chinese Gorbachev to start the ball rolling.)
As for our economy… don’t ask. At some point we too are going to be well and truly fucked, thanks to our feckless government spending levels, but if there’s a lot of ruin in China, there’s a hell of a lot more ruin in the U.S. If we can somehow solve the issue without wholesale executions (quit that cheering), it will be a win.
The only bit of cheering news I see is that the stupid and self-destructive Green movement is starting to see the air escaping out of their little balloon, and not a moment too soon, says I. As Insty says, faster please.
I think I’ll go to the range and shot off a whole bunch of .22 because why not?
