War Stories

So there you are, trundling along a little Ukrainian road, nothing but the usual soldiers’ thoughts buzzing around in your little Russki head:

…when suddenly, a little RadioShackski drone happens along and spoils your whole day.

Watch the video in the link… it’s impressive.  Ooh, that’s going to leave a mark… and it ain’t gonna buff right out, either.

I love the smell of barbecued Russians in the morning.

For those faint-hearted who think I’m being Krool & Hartless, I have only one thing to say:  they fucking started it.

News Roundup

Bad News

Let’s slice up the news.


...just wait till the videos get to PornHub and xHamster…


...honestly, I’m really not interested in the details of Michelle’s midnight erections.


...oh STFU, Frankie.
#PerpetualComment


...should be more, but the principle is excellent.  Make the bastards pay.


...just one big ol’ happy law enforcement family, Cajun style.


...everybody sing along now: ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ “You say you want a revolution, well, you know…” ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪

From the Dept. Of Commerce:


...that’s because people can’t keep their big yaps shut.  Nobody should know that you’re bonking a workmate, or two.


...the sample probably excluded management, who I bet would have a different take.


...and still none in Plano, TX?  Assholes.

In the Dept. Of Ethics:


...actually, I don’t care about this kind of thing, especially because I have similar thoughts about the Obamas, the Clintons and pretty much all the Bidens.

From the Dept. Of Education:


...not only knew, but actually facilitated — proving that people will do just about anything to help their kids get better grades.

And in related Sex News:


…
#Oops.


...which is just a long-winded way to say:  “I’m a pathetic incel loser.”

And speaking of INSIGNIFICA:

 

Finally, some Totty News:


...and for pictorial proof, here’s the very pneumatic Apollonia:


…Longtime Friend & Drummer Knob asks:  “Imagine going to pick her up for a first date, and she opens the door wearing that…”

That’s some extensive real estate, and that’s enough coverage from me.

Proper Tactics

Muzzies, Vermin

So the West gets more and more pissed off with the ragheads fucking with merchant ships off the coast of Arabland, and (amazingly) does something about it, i.e. bombing the rocket-launch sites:

Of course, the Muzzies are responding in typical fashion:

HARROWING images show gun-toting young children in the crowd as thousands took to the streets in Yemen to protest the joint UK and US airstrikes.

Supporters of the Iran-backed rebel group flocked to the streets of Sanaa chanting “America is the Devil” after the overnight blitzes.

And the predictable rent-a-crowd pics follow:

…which gives me an idea.

I like the idea of targeting the launch sites, of course, but it strikes me that it’s only a partial response to this nonsense.

What we ought to do is wait till the satellite pics show the crowds have gathered and are doing the shouty-burny thing, and then launch a couple of follow-up cruise missiles loaded with, I dunno, a daisy-cutter or two and drop them onto the crowd of smellies:

…and really give them  — or the survivors anyway — something to complain about.

Maybe that will shut these motherfuckers up, and make them think twice before playing their little reindeer-rocket games on the trade routes.  It’s worth a try, anyway.  They could hardly hate us more, n’est ce pas?

Unless, of course, we’re saving the cruise missiles and daisy-cutters for the Chinese invasion of Taiwan.

More “Health” Bullshit

Health, Nannies

Turns out that this “YOU HAVE TO WALK 10,000 STEPS A DAY OR YOU’RE GONNA DIEEEEEE!!!” mantra is absolute bollocks.  Actually, I always knew this instinctively, but here’s the !Science!:

By analyzing data on tens of thousands of people across four continents compiled between 15 existing studies, a team of researchers has landed on a more comfortable figure: the optimal number is probably closer to 6,000 steps per day, depending on your age.

Anything more is unlikely to further reduce your chances of stumbling into an early grave.

“So, what we saw was this incremental reduction in risk as steps increase, until it levels off,” said University of Massachusetts Amherst epidemiologist Amanda Paluch when the study was released in March 2022.

“And the leveling occurred at different step values for older versus younger adults.”

So… 10,000?

Half a century ago, the Yamasa Clock and Instrument Company in Japan sought to cash in on the buzz left by the 1964 Tokyo Olympics by producing a pedometer they called ‘Manpo-kei’ – a word that translates into 10,000 steps.

Why 10,000? Good old fashioned marketing. It’s a nice, round number that sounds taxing enough to be a goal, but achievable enough to be worth striving for. What it doesn’t have going for it is any scientific backing.

Yeah, but for the Health Nazis, that’s all they needed to boss us around.  It’s like that “drink 100 gallons of water a day” (or whatever bullshit “round” number they came up with for that bit of nannying);  everyone knows (or should know) that too much water is about as bad for you as too little.

Funny thing, that:  humans actually have a trigger mechanism to tell you when to drink.  It’s called “feeling thirsty”, and we’ve somehow managed to survive as a species for thousands of years by relying on it.  Also, we know when to stop, because we start feeling “full”, but clearly we have to ignore our bodies and keep on chugging back the water… until our overworked kidneys say “Fuck this nonsense” and quit.

As will our hearts when, as senior citizens (or “useless mouth-breathers” as the yoof calls us), we end up dying because those useless and as it turns out, dangerous extra few thousand steps will tax that organ into failure.

Every doctor or “health professional” or “fitness expert” who has ever insisted on the “10,000 steps and/or x liters of water per day” regime needs to get strapped to a scaffold and flogged, say, 10,000 lashes with a bullwhip.

Is that too much?  I dunno, but it’s a nice round number.

Speed Bump #246

Grammar Nazism

Aaaargh.

For the want of a space… it’s “WALK [space] OUT”, you fucking illiterate morons.  People who walk out from their jobs can be said to be staging a “walkout” (which is a NOUN).  Here’s another example, from a different article:

The mum added that she goes to the gym but has been struggling to find the time to workout.

That’s “work [space] out”, you sub-morons.  A “workout” is what you get when you exercise [he explained patiently].

First we had “verbing”, where nouns are turned into verbs (e.g. he
“exited” the room grrrr grrr grrrrr), and now we have the reverse… “nouning”, where verbs are turned into nouns?

I know what this calls for:

What Constitution?

Marxists, Resistance

Seems like a couple of asshole socialist Congressmen [redundancy alert]  from (duh) Massachusetts and Maryland are going to try to subvert the Constitution by… banning militias?

Never mind that militias are specifically protected by the U.S. Constitution, and defined and entrenched in the U.S. Code as well.  Those are, to the would-be totalitarians like Markey and that other tool, just inconveniences to be brushed aside.  Here’s a choice bit:

“Patrolling neighborhoods, impeding law enforcement and storming the U.S. Capitol, private paramilitary groups like the Oath Keepers, the Three Percenters and the Proud Boys are using political violence to intimidate our people and threaten democratic government and the rule of law.” 

Wait… the Oathies, Threepers and Proud Boys are paramilitary organizations now?  Here’s what they’re talking about:

The legislation creates different tiers of criminal penalties based on whether violations result in injury or property damage; provides harsher penalties for repeat offenders; and allows for a probationary sentence for first-time offenders. It also creates civil remedies by authorizing the Department of Justice to seek injunctive relief against paramilitary activity, and by creating a private right of action for individuals harmed by paramilitary activity to seek injunctive relief and/or damages.

I’m curious as to how these Commie legislators are going to sidestep Antifa and BLM, who are paramilitary groups:  uniforms, command structure, multi-state organization, very prone to violence and even at times, armed — and who routinely perpetrate actions that “result in injury or property damage”.  Will they be scooped up by this proposed legislation, do you think?  (Okay, you can stop that bitter laughter now.)

Whatever.  None of what these politicians are talking about in their little extra-Constitutional exercise should be supported, and I can only hope that it won’t be, even by RINO twerps like Susan Collins and her ilk.  But I fear for the worst.  Why?

Because, you see, this is what happens when one side of the aisle demonizes the other side successfully*:  all sorts of mischief can ensue as long as “public safety” can be trumpeted as the excuse, even when — as in the case of the three inept “rightwing”  organizations cited above — there is absolutely no circumstance or rationale under which they would behave in the manner feared.

Of course, the Left and their foot soldiers will be exempted and excused because MAGA… but you all knew that.

Range time?  I think so.  And I’m not a member of any organization such as the above.  But I am part of what can be described as the “citizen militia”, and unashamedly so.

*Here’s the international equivalent of demonizing (and eventually) criminalizing the opposition:

Does everyone see the parallels, or do I have to spell them out?
