"..UK's Junior Defense Minister James Heappey:
"Ukraine has achieved a  functional defeat of the Russian Black Sea Fleet."

The Russian fleet has been using Crimea as it's base to exert control over the Black Sea since their 2014 first invasion of #Ukraine. #Russia has suffered a series of defeats, is withdrawing much of its fleet out of #Crimea, specifically #Sevastopol to the Russian port #Novorossiysk, & abandoning much Russian influence over the Black Sea. This is a big balance of power shift, Crimea is also hugely important for overall logistics, and the execution of the whole Russian invasion.

This also means international insurers have started reinsuring grain ships & shipments from Ukraine because of decreased risks from Russian terrorism in the black sea. Great for both Ukraine and the populations with food supplies that have been on ransom to #Russian aggression.

Country with no Navy, handing defeats out to Russian Navy. Think what Ukraine will do when western politicians find their balls & supply #ATACMS & #Taurus.."

"...RT executive Margarita Simonyan launches defamation suit after suggesting Russia should blow up nuclear bomb ‘somewhere over Siberia’

RT executive Margarita Simonyan says she’s filed a complaint about “some aide to some legislator” who had accused her of saying that Russia should launch a nuclear strike on Siberia.

“The earthly within me has prevailed,” Simonyan wrote on Telegram, suggesting that (contrary to her heavenly nature) she was obliged to launch a defamation suit, taking the first step by filing a police report.

The propagandist insists she couldn’t possibly have argued for a nuclear strike on the Russian territory. “This monstrous allegation,” she wrote, “smears my reputation and inflicts all manner of damages and suffering upon me.”..."


"..After saying live on RT that Russia should detonate a nuclear bomb “somewhere over Siberia” as an ultimatum to the West, Margarita Simonyan is trying to silence the critics (some of them from Siberia) by threatening and filing defamation complaints.."

An increasing number of CEOs and investors are talking about how popular weight-loss drugs might change the economy and business. Earlier this week, the CEO of the maker of Pringles and Cheez-Its said the company is studying their potential impact on dietary behaviors...."
Medicaid/Medicare doesn't pay for the diet drugs.

I bought my house in 1999.  There were some phragmites out there and I wanted to cut them but I didn't know what they were and if they were a protected "wetland" plant that there might be restrictions on. So I cut one and took it to the DNR office and they had no clue what it was. They had to send a photo to Lansing and get back to me.  That was 1999. We were so free and innocent back then...

I thought about that. There must be people coming and going constantly in the White House and there's always bodyguards walking around.

So one of the demands being placed on me is that when the chimney swifts leave for the season...probably already have...I'm suppose to put a cap on the chimney and finish the work on the stone fireplace I started and almost finished back in like 2013. I'm sure I had a vision back then, I'm just at a loss to recall.  I got rid of the baby-killer hearth and covered the brick face with "cultured" stone. It really took a measure of temerity bordering on fraud to use the word "cultured" in reference to that material.  Nevertheless, I think if I can build an appropriately distracting mantle, the culture of the "stone" will recede. Seems like I had a mantle plan that involved a fallen tree and a set of handed and very expensive Swedish chip axes too. I probably came up with that plan at 2 in the morning.

Apparently he does not have to use the bathroom like mortals. He could drive a car at age 3

During the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, it came to light that the North Korean supporters were not genuinely from North Korea. Given the well-known travel restrictions for North Koreans, one wonders how they managed to assemble thousands of cheering fans at the games.  According to reports, it seems that thousands of Chinese actors were recruited and paid to attend football games in order to support North Korea.

North Korea also has it's own time zone and calendar - it's year 112 - time began the year Kim il Sun was born.

"...Elon Has To Pay The Legal Fees Of Former Execs He Fired

Elon Musk really seems to hate paying legal bills (or, really, any bills), but now he’s got a few more to cover. Bloomberg reported earlier this week that Kathaleen McCormick, Chancellor of the Delaware Court of Chancery (who is quite familiar with Elon Musk and Twitter) has ruled that exTwitter has to cover the legal fees of former CEO Parag Agrawal and former legal boss Vijaya Gadde.

At issue was that their contracts required that the company would cover their legal fees, and that should have covered legal work that was associated with the company even after they were fired (mainly Gadde testifying before Congress).

Despite timely written demand along with documentation from Plaintiffs through their counsel, the Company has not advanced to Plaintiffs their Expenses actually and reasonably incurred related to the various Proceedings. Over two months after Plaintiffs initial written demand, the Company offered only a cursory acknowledgement of receipt, but still refused to acknowledge its obligations and to remit payment of any invoices. Defendant has breached the Agreements and contravened its Bylaws..."

"...When the gavel came crashing down Tuesday afternoon, declaring the Office of the Speaker of the House vacant, Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA), the Senate president pro tempore, found herself one step higher on the ladder of presidential succession.

Murray confirmed her upgraded place in the line of succession during an interview with the New York Times Wednesday, acknowledging the new and temporary — although unclear for how long — reality.

“It’s not the trappings of it. It’s really the job of it,” Murray told he Times. “I have a job to do and it’s really important, and I want to make sure that I’m successful at it.”

It’s a job – and a “constitutional role” as her office put it – the senator has always taken very seriously, her spokesperson said in response to TPM’s inquiries about her new status. As the Succession Act of 1947 makes clear the line of succession to replace the U.S. president goes vice president, Speaker of the House, Senate President pro tempore, followed by a line of cabinet members.

Further: “If the offices of President and Vice President are vacant simultaneously, the Speaker of the House of Representatives acts as President, after resigning from the House and from the office of Speaker. If the speakership is also vacant, the President pro tempore of the Senate acts as President,” according to a 2020 Congressional Research Service report..."

Wow man. That was quite a little tear.  Why does this idiot think I "busted posting personal information" ? On who? Who's "personal information" did I have out of that cast of inbred, middle-aged virgins?  Honestly, I would not have believed people like those left at Pete's even exist in this world. I feel sorry for them. It must be awful.

I'm pretty sure it is the same "personal information" that I was accused of spreading.  It's their go-to.  I am not sure why any of them think that they are relevant enough to deserve that much of my (or anyone else's) attention...but it gives them purpose.

It was more because I was a woman. The Ultra Orthodox Jews treat women as badly as radical Muslims. I worked in what was then a Jewish neighbourhood. I was crossing one of the busiest streets in Montreal. Two male Orthodox were walking side by side. As a woman you are supposed to step onto the street to let them pass. I told them to move. Spit on my shoes. Also Teaman is correct. Most Jews tolerate them (barely).

True. I always wondered what the Muslims and Jews were fighting about. Not much difference when it comes to the orthodox jew. She had to keep her head covered just like Muslim women.

I was in Israel a long time ago and those Orthodox weirdos were the ones causing trouble, not the Arabs. They were raising hell at some religious site and the cops showed up in riot gear in buses and started beating them with clubs and pushing them onto the buses.

The plural of cactus can be either cacti (from the Latin plural) or the conventional English plural cactuses. “ Cacti” is the Latin plural of cactus and “Cactuses” is the English plural although “cacti” has the edge. Similar words that are made plural this way are abacus (abaci), alumnus (alumni) and radius (radii)

It's a weird place. I was drinking at some sidewalk cafe and I had a pack of American cigarettes. One of the soldiers came and started talking to me and said he was an American from New York and that as a Jew he was eligible to serve in the IDF.  So I gave him cigarettes. That seemed to be the most popular thing about Americans...the quality of our cigarettes. But I'm on board with being rabidly pro-Israel.

"JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli police have arrested an American tourist at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem after he hurled works of art to the floor, defacing two second-century Roman statues.

The vandalism late Thursday raised questions about the safety of Israel's priceless collections and stirred concern about a rise in attacks on cultural heritage in Jerusalem.

Police identified the suspect as a radical 40-year-old Jewish American tourist and said initial questioning suggested he smashed the statues because he considered them “to be idolatrous and contrary to the Torah.”

The man's lawyer, Nick Kaufman, denied that he had acted out of religious fanaticism.

Instead, Kaufman said, the tourist was suffering from a mental disorder that psychiatrists have labeled the Jerusalem syndrome. The condition — a form of disorientation believed to be induced by the religious magnetism of the city, which is sacred to Christians, Jews and Muslims — is said to cause foreign pilgrims to believe they are figures from the Bible."

"Researchers estimate hundreds of millions of birds die in window strikes in the United States each year. Scientists with the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released a study in 2014 that put the number between 365 million and 988 million birds annually.

Window strikes are an issue in almost every major U.S. city. Birds don't see clear or reflective glass and don't understand it's a lethal barrier. When they see plants or bushes through windows or reflected in them, they head for them, killing themselves in the process."...

As Winter Looms, Venezuelan Migrant Surge Overwhelms Chicago

“We don’t have any place for them to go,” said Cristina Pacione-Zayas, deputy chief of staff for Mayor Brandon Johnson. “We are scrambling.”

"Yureibi Olivo, a mother of four who arrived in Chicago this summer, said she was already glad her family had taken the great risk to leave. She is among the lucky few who secured beds at a temporary shelter in a downtown hotel.

Olivo, 45, has been selling arepas, stuffed cornmeal cakes, on the streets, where she pulls in around $60 a day. Back home, working two jobs — one as a street sweeper and one preparing government-subsidized meals — would earn her that amount in three months, she said.

Being here is a privilege,” Olivo said. “God gave us an opportunity, and the government here has opened the door.”

As Winter Looms, Venezuelan Migrant Surge Overwhelms Chicago

“We don’t have any place for them to go,” said Cristina Pacione-Zayas, deputy chief of staff for Mayor Brandon Johnson. “We are scrambling.”

"Yureibi Olivo, a mother of four who arrived in Chicago this summer, said she was already glad her family had taken the great risk to leave. She is among the lucky few who secured beds at a temporary shelter in a downtown hotel.

Olivo, 45, has been selling arepas, stuffed cornmeal cakes, on the streets, where she pulls in around $60 a day. Back home, working two jobs — one as a street sweeper and one preparing government-subsidized meals — would earn her that amount in three months, she said.

Being here is a privilege,” Olivo said. “God gave us an opportunity, and the government here has opened the door.”
Now they are saying that a lot of those migrants are paid UN soldiers. What’s your take on that?

'Difficult to accept': Prominent Russian hardliner admits its navy couldn't defend itself from Ukraine


A Russian hardline pro-war account conceded that the Black Sea Fleet couldn't defend itself from Ukraine and had to pull back.

"Even though it's difficult to accept, the Black Sea Fleet cannot fully ensure its security now," Rybar wrote.

"As long as the enemy has access to the sea, and NATO aviation is quietly directing drones and missiles over there, the danger will remain," it added.

We are not hiring our best to be cops...

"..Fun piece of #trivia here.  #NewMexico issues license plates marked “New Mexico USA.”  The state appended “USA” in the mid-1980s because police who stopped the cars in other states kept assuming the occupants were Mexican citizens, often asking, “So, how long are you planning on staying in this country?”.."

Not sure I would want to do it again but I had a lot of fun.  It was the last years that the government bussed hundreds of young ladies to me 5 days a week.  Sex, drugs, booze, rock and roll. Someone else paying the bills other than gasoline, party supplies, and condoms.
I just went hiking, swimming, and stealing government corn and cherries from the fields.

My personal translation:
Я, люблю свою страну
Люблю свою жену
Люблю свою собаку
 
Я, всего на свете член
Почти что Супермен
Но редко лезу в драку
Знает весь двор
Мой приговор, слуга народу
 
У меня почти всё есть
Достоинства и честь
И даже крики, браво
 
Персональный самолет
Мне выделил народ
А что? имею право
 
На животу (вот тут)
Набью тату, слуга народу

I love my country
I love my wife
I love my dog

I am a citizen of the world
Almost like Superman
But I seldom get in a fight
Everyone in the yard knows
My sentence is to be Servant of the people

I have almost everything
Dignity and honor
Event chants: “Bravo!”

Private plane
Given to me by the people
So what? I am allowed

On my abdomen (right here)
I’ll get a tattoo
“Servant of the People.”

Israeli military announces ‘state of war alert’ as Palestinian militants enter Israel from Gaza after deadly rocket attack


"Israel’s military announced a “state of war alert” on Saturday after militants from Gaza fired a deadly barrage of rockets and sent gunmen into Israeli territory in a major escalation of the long running conflict between the two sides.

The early morning rocket attack, which the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) described as “massive”, left at least one person dead and multiple wounded.

Hamas, the Palestinian militant movement that runs Gaza, claimed responsibility for the rocket attack and called for a general uprising against Israel.

“If you have a gun, get it out. This is the time to use it – get out with trucks, cars, axes, today the best and most honorable history starts,” Hamas military commander Muhammad Al-Deif said in a recorded message."



I'm sure the brave Arab soldiers will be able to successfully vanquish a handful of old women and babies before some Israeli soldiers show up and send them to hell -  Thus ever to terrorists.

"Dubbing the operation “Al-Aqsa Storm” he said that the group had “targeted the enemy positions, airports and military positions with 5,000 rockets”


"The first round of rockets was fired at about 6:30 a.m. Saturday morning local time (11:30 p.m. ET), when most Israelis are likely to have been asleep.

It is rare for Palestinian militants to be able to make it into Israel from Gaza which is sealed off and heavily watched by Israel’s miltary.

Israel television Channel 12 reported that the infiltrators from Gaza had entered Kibbutz Beeri, saying that residents were urging the IDF to rush to the kibbutz."

"Overdoses killed 163 of every 100,000 people who usually worked in construction and extraction in 2020, whether they were on the job or not, making it by far the most dangerous major occupation, drug-wise. Restaurant jobs were second at 118 deaths per 100,000.


The results are fairly startling: 1 out of every 5 people who died of an overdose in 2020 usually worked in construction or restaurants. These folks lived in a different universe


The substance most likely to cause a fatal overdose - no matter your occupation - is a synthetic opioid such as fentanyl. The category that includes meth usually comes next, then cocaine and heroin. The vast majority of deaths (92 percent) were deemed accidental rather than suicide or homicide.

Israeli military announces ‘state of war alert’ as Palestinian militants enter Israel from Gaza after deadly rocket attack


"Israel’s military announced a “state of war alert” on Saturday after militants from Gaza fired a deadly barrage of rockets and sent gunmen into Israeli territory in a major escalation of the long running conflict between the two sides.

The early morning rocket attack, which the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) described as “massive”, left at least one person dead and multiple wounded.

Hamas, the Palestinian militant movement that runs Gaza, claimed responsibility for the rocket attack and called for a general uprising against Israel.

“If you have a gun, get it out. This is the time to use it – get out with trucks, cars, axes, today the best and most honorable history starts,” Hamas military commander Muhammad Al-Deif said in a recorded message."



I'm sure the brave Arab soldiers will be able to successfully vanquish a handful of old women and babies before some Israeli soldiers show up and send them to hell -  Thus ever to terrorists.

Poe was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story, and considered to be the inventor of the detective fiction genre, as well as a significant contributor to the emerging genre of science fiction.."
So, I'm reading the wiki bio of Poe and apparently someone edited the article.  Read:

"Newspapers at the time reported Poe's death as "congestion of the brain" or "cerebral inflammation", common euphemisms for death from disreputable causes such as alcoholism.[77] The actual cause of death remains a mystery.[78] Speculation has included delirium tremens, heart disease, epilepsy, syphilis, meningeal inflammation,[5] cholera,[79] carbon monoxide poisoning,[80] and rabies.[81] One theory dating from 1872 suggests that Poe's death resulted from cooping, a form of electoral fraud in which citizens were forced to vote for a particular candidate, sometimes leading to violence and even murder.[82]"
Title: Re: Current Events
Post by: Faith on October 07, 2023, 10:03:23 am
This is what I was looking for.  Poe wasn't as screwed up as everyone thinks. He was  successful. His character was assassinated after he died by a jealous rival:


"Immediately after Poe's death, his literary rival Rufus Wilmot Griswold wrote a slanted high-profile obituary under a pseudonym, filled with falsehoods that cast Poe as a lunatic, and which described him as a person who "walked the streets, in madness or melancholy, with lips moving in indistinct curses, or with eyes upturned in passionate prayers, (never for himself, for he felt, or professed to feel, that he was already damned)".[83]

The long obituary appeared in the New York Tribune, signed "Ludwig" on the day that Poe was buried in Baltimore. It was further published throughout the country. The obituary began, "Edgar Allan Poe is dead. He died in Baltimore the day before yesterday. This announcement will startle many, but few will be grieved by it."[84] "Ludwig" was soon identified as Griswold, an editor, critic, and anthologist who had borne a grudge against Poe since 1842. Griswold somehow became Poe's literary executor and attempted to destroy his enemy's reputation after his death."

"..In a blunder reminiscent of the Irish patriots who tried to dry their wet gunpowder by placing it next to the fire, the Republicans elected McCarthy 'Speaker of the House'. They had a difficult time doing it, fifteen votes, in all, but in the end, he got the job when he promised to play Russian Roulette with six cartridges in the cylinder. He was a known liar, proved to be a complete incompetent, and certainly doomed to failure which he did spectacularly.

Now the seat is vacant, and the absurdly named 'Freedom Caucus' is at it again. They will certainly again elect a person who has more ethical missteps than a Bugs Bunny cartoon, that epitomizes everything wrong with the GOP, and stands stalwart in support of the Republican's most voiced criticism; that they are unmitigated racists!

From the fight against the 'Civil rights Act', to their battle against the 'Voting Rights Act' to their attempts to gerrymander every congressional seat to weaken, if not deny the votes to blacks altogether, they now are proposing to replace a hypocritical fool with a man who might be the most powerful political racist in the country.

Kroger's new AI monitored self checkouts works from the assumption that the customer is guilty. Although the system cuts down on theft, it's designed to help the store, not the customers who are already not getting paid to do the work the store traditionally did by hiring cashiers in the past. The AI sends store personnel to the customers checking themselves out if they have any kind of trouble scanning something. All the customer's groceries are then spread out and gone through by the store personnel. Customers are forced to use the self checkout because Kroger uses so few actual cashiers. Unless you want to wait an hour to get checked out by the only cashier at the store, you'll likely want to use the self checkout so you won't be held up until your next birthday. Maybe I'm spiteful, but I think I'll purposely mis-scan my groceries repeatedly so they'll have to come and go through all my groceries four or five times. I'll just make sure I don't have any reason to be in a hurry. Should be fun.

I refuse to do self-check unless an employee actually does the scanning.

I wait in the cashier line if there is one, the long waits are part of the manipulation and they started before self-checks where a thing. They were priming the pump and playing on the impatience of youth.  Playing us all for suckers.

I know I'm going to roll the dice against the weather and get screwed. There's a couple things I need to do before winter.  One is install a new pedestrian door on the barn. It's not architecturally consistent with the original construction, but I opted to avail myself of certain technological breakthroughs that have happened upon humankind since like 1800...hinges for example.  I did the rough. I just have to slide this heavy-ass pre-hung door I bought into the opening and pop a few nails into it. But it's so warm and stoned in this chair where I'm sitting I cant bring myself to go out into the wind right now or probably any time soon.
 
I also wanted to tile my front porch in natural stone and build a railing painted in some whimsical pastel color so when people drive by they'll be impressed by how groovy we are. But realistically, that may have to wait until spring.

Sad fact is that that the IDF is just too strong for anything other than a semi major state military can deal with.

I can support whatever I want. However, you as a Democrat must follow your alliances. If you are against Putin, you have to be against all his allies. By your logic, Bulgaria has to give their land back to Turkey as they occupied us for 500 years. I think issues like that are too complicated for a mew worlder like you. Oh, I see now.

I would incorporate solar features on the tiny house I'll probably never build in the woods next to my house. I even scoped out these three giant trees and thought of how I would engineer a bridge and a platform and mount my tiny house in the trees. Or I could just more or less build a deck with 6 or 8 posts anchored in concrete below the frost line and then build the house on the deck. And use RV appliances. It's an elaborate fantasy. I've been working on it for years...like the greenhouse I'll never build.

The TA fishing dude over in the UK has what he calls a tackle shack and he heats it with a tiny wood stove. Trying to think, it might be Swedish. Cute little stainless steel thing about the size of a small microwave. You can cook on it too.

This is not the one I don't think but one like it.

"..George Takei :verified: 🏳️‍🌈🖖🏽

A year ago, all major economists were predicting a recession as the Fed moved to raise interest rates to battle inflation. But Joe Biden’s and the Democrats’ investment in infrastructure and manufacturing kept the job market strong and resilient, and now there is almost no talk of a recession. Bidenomics is working. Inflation is down, unemployment at historic lows, real wages rising. We should proclaim it far and wide and push back against the doom and gloom the media feeds us and feeds upon.."

Uninvited garbage that washed up on the beaches of Europe ratchets-up their detestability:


"Migrants in Europe celebrated last night after Hamas launched an attack on Israel, killing more than 150 people.

Videos of a migrant camp in Greece showed Palestinians and other asylum seekers cheering in response to the attacks from Gaza.

The footage, published on TikTok, was reportedly taken on the eastern Aegean island of Samos, where the Greek government has set up a “closed” migrant camp surrounded by barbed wire.

Refugees there, many of whom are from Syria and Iraq, reportedly chanted “Allah Akbar” – “God is great”.

Their celebrations were mirrored in many states across the Arab world, where Hamas and Hizbollah supporters gathered in support of the attack.

In Tehran, where the government publicly welcomed Hamas’s military operation, supporters waved Palestinian flags and set off fireworks.

Hizbollah supporters also held a rally in Dahiyeh, a suburb of Beirut, Lebanon, where some waved signs that read: “Oh Quds, we are coming.” [code for genocide against the Jews which is an endemic feature of their hateful ideology].

The phrase is used in support of Palestinian forces capturing Muslim holy sites. Others stood on an Israeli flag.

I don’t think it’s an organized plan. But it’s real easy to look at it like that.  It’s just the word is out that Western societies and their sloppy generosity are easy to exploit, especially if you have a chunk of their population looking to assuage their liberal guilt by adopting you as their pet victim. So they come in droves. The real victims are the poor Mexicans that have been caught in the fray.

There’s been a cat population explosion in our neighborhood. Every house has kittens. It kind of comes and goes. I’m not sure what influences that. There must be something. Some animals, like raccoons, become more fertile and breed more prolifically if there’s abundant food. I also read there’s been a spike in diabetes in raccoons because they eat our trash which is a sad as hell commentary on our sorry asses.

"Two women from Melitopol treated Russian soldiers occupying the city with homemade moonshine. It was so "exquisite" that eleven occupiers died right after consuming the liquor. Other Russians were reminded that they are not welcome in the area.

In occupied Melitopol, two elderly ladies served Russian soldiers with homemade moonshine. According to another version, the Russians bought the alcohol. Regardless of whether it was a gift or a purchase, the effect was stunning. About half an hour after the feast, eleven soldiers died.

Initially, it was assumed that the moonshine was improperly prepared and that the Russians were poisoned, as often happens in such cases, by the deadly dangerous methanol. It quickly turned out that this was not a mistake, but a deliberate murder. The alcohol had been poisoned."
