    Current outrage is a white person attacked establishments where ladies performed sexual acts for money.

    Six out of eight people killed were of Asian descent.

    Looks to me like six out of eight people working in places that provide rub and tug and happy endings are of Asian descent.

    Well, the furniture is back in place. Next up is the declutter phase, then the deep clean, then the house goes on the market. In 3 weeks.

    Fortunately, I made the right move and got rid of the old Sleep Number bed(which NOBODY will move, I had to get handyman friends of ours to do it, they weigh a ton). I got a new, light weight bed from Purple. Not only will it be easy to move, it is absolutely the best mattress I’ve ever had and I sleep like baby and nothing is stiff when I wake up. So, I’m rested, but still overwhelmed by the amount of work that needs to be done.

    @ eaglesoars:
    Racist incidents targeting Asian Americans have skyrocketed in the last year.

    hmmm what else skyrocketed in organization last year? BLM? My first gf was asian. I talked to her a few weeks ago and she is avoiding Chinatown. Asians own the markets that serve the meth addicts. if one walks into the market one gets followed like a potential shoplifter if not Asian. Some blacks think its because they are black but no its because they are not Asian.

    The problem is a LIQ er problem. Low IQ ers. No one is going to help the Chinese. Black gangs are seeing this as easy quick SJW $$$’s. Not gonna stop until they get bullied back. I eschew violence but street terror is the only thing that will help the elderly chinese here. These junkies all get together in a cardboard box and share Junkie stories. There are stories being shared about the Chinese. China itself is probably fueling this to show Chinese a moral story.

    I can verify 3, 10, 12, 14. Those work with pretty much all my migraines. Ocular, ear based, weather, etc. Wish the VA would get the sumatriptan nasal spray. That would be great might have less of an effect on my stomach than the oral based imitrex.

    This Blinken guy who is supposedly our Sec State is getting laughed at for his performance in Alaska. I guess he thought he’d pull a big-swinging-dick show in front of the media and started insulting China to their face at a presser.

    It didn’t go well. China basically told him to piss up a rope, and people are whispering ‘Jimmy Carter is back’

    Oh this is fun! The Daily Mail is going after the U.S. media. Look at this headline

    Nothing to see here: How most of the left-leaning US media totally ignored Biden’s Air Force One stumble – while the foreign press did their job for them

    Major U.S. press outlets largely avoided mention of Biden tripping repeatedly

    As of Friday afternoon, the homepages of MSNBC, CBS News, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times and New York Times had no mention of Biden’s stumbles

    Foreign outlets appeared far more interested, devoting prominent coverage
    US outlets including Drudge Report, TMZ and Fox News broke the blackout

    It contrasted with breathless coverage of Trump’s ginger steps at West Point

    Dr Siegal just brought up a good point. It could be related to his previous foot injury. There are a TON of bones/joints in the foot.

    Just a heads up.

    I can tell from my shopping that there is a supply chain disruption in dog food. Almost all the food I buy is sourced from U.S. sources (except for kangaroo, which can be sketchy).

    And when I look at the protein source it’s beef.

    All poultry and fish seem to be fine.

    I don’t pay attention to raw food or kibble so I couldn’t tell you about goat, etc., but for ‘fresh cooked’ and canned and even dehydrated the beef selection is not what is was. I sometimes use Farmer’s Dog so I’m going to talk to them (not that I expect them to tell me anything but it’s worth a shot).

    so, during our conversation here…

    i drove out to altoona in the daylight for a change. 22 is a great drive in the day, very scenic, lovely and relaxing.

    i left home early to get to the hotel to catch the NZ batting innings v sri lanka in their ODI. ok sez i, i need a cigar and some beer…put up the tailgate in the benz and enjoyed the nice weather. the cricket is on the tablet and i opened a beer and lit a very nice san latano oval.

    up pulls a car and parks beside me, out steps one of the travel docs that i have dealt with in the icu on transferring a patient. he laughs and sez, you got a tailgate going on, what are you watching? yep, i said, handed him a beer, and said its the cricket.

    then i did my best to explain the rules.

    several beers later, he gets it. a new fan!

    The differences between the likes of Musk, Bezos, Gates, Zuckerburg, Soros.

    Term paper.

    I majored in philosophy. I got disgusted with it because it had no room for tech development. It could barely digest the Holocaust.

    It tried to cover itself in epistemology but ultimately it had nothing to say about how to evaluate a well lived life. Paglia tries to do it via art and the meaning of feminism but the fact remains that she does not love men. In all senses of the word.

    After all these years, I have the idea that everything is rooted in the kitchen. And what it takes to get the supplies to it.

    aussie will enjoy this

    so, during our conversation here…

    i drove out to altoona in the daylight for a change. 22 is a great drive in the day, very scenic, lovely and relaxing.

    i left home early to get to the hotel to catch the NZ batting innings v sri lanka in their ODI. ok sez i, i need a cigar and some beer…put up the tailgate in the benz and enjoyed the nice weather. the cricket is on the tablet and i opened a beer and lit a very nice san latano oval.

    up pulls a car and parks beside me, out steps one of the travel docs that i have dealt with in the icu on transferring a patient. he laughs and sez, you got a tailgate going on, what are you watching? yep, i said, handed him a beer, and said its the cricket.

    then i did my best to explain the rules.

    several beers later, he gets it. a new fan!

    If you keep doing that Cold then you’ll re-invent cricket in the US of A and they will be world champs yet again ! The Indians and Aussies would not be impressed!

    HEH!

    🙂
