Tammie, F-18 style.







This is a compelling point.

As is this.

Not really. We need to hold the left to the exact same standards that they hold the right.

Rule of thumb for campus free speech controversies: conservative professors are attacked for conservatism, while leftist ones get in trouble for being sociopaths

Regarding a certain conspiracy theorist -- Crid has never heard of Alex Jones, and for some reason, is absolutely enraged that I have -- he seems to find himself in a big of legal trouble.

The families of two of the victims of the Sandy Hook school shooting have decided to sue him for defamation. Alex Jones is claiming that the Sandy Hook shooting either never happened, or was a setup by the government employing crisis actors.

Slander is a difficult legal hurdle, but a friend of mine, a retired lawyer, says that Alex Jones' lies are malicious and outrageous enough to reach the bar.

Sure... Comity would collapse if we didn't, because fair. So pout, and be prepared to turn blue and to take your catcher's mitt and go home.

> has never heard of Alex Jones

I hadn't when you came whining about him that day, and have only seen his name in headlines a handful of times since.

> is absolutely enraged that I have

It was weird how you were (and are) so certain that this trivial figure looms as large in everyone else's imagination as in your own.

> malicious and outrageous

You boys live in a pitiless realm of cataclysmic hazard and unending treachery.

Trust no one!

The left will hate having to live by the rules they insist on pushing down on the rest of us.

Which is why I want the metaphorical head of the Fresno State prof on a metaphorical pike as a reminder of these are your rules, enjoy them.

Could one yet affirm that television didn't fill three generations of American skull with bullishit?

Well, be enlightened.

Crid: It was weird how you were (and are) so certain that this trivial figure looms as large in everyone else's imagination as in your own.

What was weird about it is that you seemed so incensed that I should even be talking about someone that you never heard of. He has a large following. That you didn't happen to hear of him isn't cause to have a hissy fit that someone should be talking about him.

There are a large number of popular performance artists out today that I've never heard of, I'm sure. I promise, if you bring one of them up in Amy's links section, I won't have a cow about it.

Here, now, the consequences of electing a fiscally illiterate and morally oblivious trust fund baby as President... And doing so because, as Raddy puts it, being a "billionaire" means he might know things about money that other people don't know.

I voted for Trump hoping for epic clusterfucks and a standstill in the legislature as they all freak the fuck out

So, I got what I wanted out of this

Evidence that humans can genetically adapt to diving has been identified for the first time in a new study. The evidence suggests that the Bajau, a people group indigenous to parts of Indonesia, have genetically enlarged spleens which enable them to free dive to depths of up to 70m.

No good deed goes unpunished

Last year, doctors presented results from a small pilot trial hinting that smaller doses could work just as well as the larger dose—dropping patients down from three pills a day to just one. Taking just one pill a day could dramatically reduce costs to around $50,000 a year. And it could lessen unpleasant side-effects, such as diarrhea, muscle and bone pain, and tiredness. But just as doctors were gearing up for more trials on the lower dosages, the makers of the drug revealed plans that torpedoed the doctors’ efforts: they were tripling the price of the drug and changing pill dosages.

You could use cloud bread, then you wouldn't be so nervous! ;)

Imaging a banana republic, where when the leader is facing a challenge in an election, he simply orders up some extra votes -

[Imagine] a banana republic, where when the leader is facing a challenge in an election, he simply orders up some extra votes ~ Snoopy at April 19, 2018 10:53 AM

"New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Wednesday that he was granting conditional pardons to every parolee in the state — 35,000 — to restore their voting rights."

"Cuomo, facing a primary challenge from the left from actress and activist Cynthia Nixon, made an end-run around the state Legislature, where Republicans had stymied his effort."

And that, folks, is exactly what the rush to re-enfranchise ex-felons is all about. Not fairness, not empathy, but vote-rigging. Backdoor gerrymandering. Same with the push to enfranchise illegal immigrants.

The danger of a dictatorship in America is not Trump. He may think like an autocrat and be Constitutionally illiterate, but he does not have the power or support to declare himself emperor.

The danger is the tin pot dictators at the state and local levels who run roughshod over the law and custom to stay in power. They'll be the satraps kowtowing to whomever wrests a dictatorship out of Washington, modern-day Marshall Petains committing any atrocity in order to keep their hold on whatever power they can.

Cute, little, black-and-white degenerates:

Penguins might just be nature’s most perverted animals
