Favorite Christmas movie. A Christmas Story.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085334/
When young I likes Babes in Toyland. The kids liked the Jim Carrey “The Grinch who stole Christmas”
Last GF opted for the Nutcracker live and in person. That was a sleeper for me thus issues down the road.

merry christmas yinz guys!
i just arrived at g’ma and papap coldwarrior’s palatial estate ‘up north’ and delivered a fantastic new massive infrared grill to the gargemahal. brother coldwarrior and i went on half. papap coldwarrior has no idea and its covered in a tarp, i just dont have the energy to put it together tonight. i want a pint of guiness and a shot of booze after this long day.
g’ma and papap spent wayyyyyyy tooooooo much on the kids, but…it’s good that they have the means to do so. the girls have no idea what is going hit them in the AM.
@ coldwarrior:
Great. Kids form such good memories from family events where the adults produce a stage.
Also.
Ready Player One is the best way to start in Crypto. The mechanics of the movie is all about how crypto interfaces with the real world.
For Possum. When things are fucked up. I’ve been there a lot. The best way to get a foothold on getting out is to volunteer to make coffee at a church or animal herd at a vet office for free.
The energy around depression is something that should be savored like a fine wine.
For Scope. I’m dealing with a meth relative who destroys every person she touches. Sort of the Midas touch in reverse. I went from a person who abhors meth to a person who accepts it because there is no other way. And jail seems like the only savior solution.
What does Christmas have to do with this? IT’s a time when people can congregate and sing carols and see the big picture as it relates to their personal being.
Many families in this situation around the holidays.

Reasons to abolish Christmas:
• The exchange of “gifts” normalises capitalism.
• “Comfort and joy” are signifiers of privilege.
• Turkeys are murdered en masse.
• Snowmen are symbols of white patriarchy.
• Jesus wasn’t vaccinated.

Babylon Bee
NORTH POLE—After a transformative moment reading R.C. Sproul’s What Is Reformed Theology? for the first time earlier this week, legendary Christmas icon Santa Claus reportedly converted to a full-on, five-point Calvinist, and almost immediately moved every single person on the planet to the naughty list, sources confirmed Friday.
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/20/technology/silicon-valley-cryptocurrency-start-ups.html
Ms. Carter is part of a wave of executives and engineers leaving cushy jobs at Google, Amazon, Apple and other large tech companies — some of which pay millions of dollars in annual compensation — to chase what they see as a once-in-a-generation opportunity. That next big thing is crypto, they said, a catchall designation that includes digital currencies like Bitcoin and products like nonfungible tokens, or NFTs, that rely on the blockchain.
Ok, everybody has to read this book
Corn Siege
It’s about what happens when people get fed up to their back teeth and go John Galt. First the power goes down. In the cities, not the rural areas. Contemporary Fiction. So far. It’s short, just over 200 pgs
It’s written by one Anthony Horvath. Someone with that name has evidently written quite a few books but I don’t know if it’s the same person and I can’t find anything specific.

I let the two day old kittens get too big. They are now months old, un neutered and it is mating season. They are out of control to be honest. Singing day and night and place has become a pissing contest.
The two indoor/outdoor cats that sort of adopted mew years ago are nice cats.
However the male is FIV+ so un adoptable. Death for him.

as someone pointed out, why is the word ‘stranded’ used? It’s at a U.S. ship at a U.S. naval station.
@ eaglesoars:
I am all for freedom of information and all that but I do not think information like the readiness of a US warship should be known.
In the UK there is such a thing called a “D notice” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSMA-Notice
Where the Government can politely ask the press to shut the fuck up. It is voluntary however.
@ Possum:
It just says “U.S. Warship”, doesn’t say the name or classification.
But you have a point. To which I will say – the NYT will publish anything to hurt the U.S. military – and our Navy has gone woke and probably should be keel-hauled.

USS Milwaukee (LCS-5) is one of the Littoral Combat Ships of the Freedom class. Those things have basically been a disaster from day one.
@ Possum:
It shouldn’t, but the US government doesn’t have the power to prevent the press from publishing anything.

We have an FIV positive little Calico we got from a friend. Our vet suggested we put her down but it’s not going to happen. She’s isolated and is the most affectionate little girl you could ever imagine. She was on my lap for over 2 hours last night.
@ eaglesoars:
Assange wasn’t prevented from publishing anything, though. There may be consequences after the fact, but they can’t keep you from doing it.
That’s the difference between the US and the UK. Their government actually can call up a newspaper and say “You can’t write that.”

I’ve had Christmas in England and Germany. Quite different from the US. In London, I could buy roasted chestnuts and get this pudding with a coin in it. Sometimes the Snow was Montana levels. A lot of fun. Lemon beer and cornish pastry from a vending machine in Kings Cross station after a day of visiting boutique bookstores.
Germany has a whole town dedicated to Christmas. The tree have white lights only. No signs of a Santa Claus. Late night markets selling hot wine and sausages. Cold and very cold. A lot of nutcracker themes.
Arcane is the best animated sci fi fantasy on Netflix night now.

@ Aussie Infidel:
On the news that other day that more and more Australians are moving to New Zealand and destinations beyond.
Also news of 3 soccer players dyeing of heart attacks maybe related to Astro-Zeneca vaccinations. Hard to tell if its just fear porn or not. But one would think we would study the effect of vaccinations on each sport during the pandemic.
I’m still having the Moderna heart and lung problems 4 months later. Impossible to wear a mask at the gym. Feels like suffocation. I’ll just get random racing heart about 20 times a day. Congested breathing like there is a weight on me. I meditate to get through it. I don’t exist as an adverse effect in any database. the vaccinators didn’t want to record anything. Or they didn’t have the means to do so.
@ eaglesoars:
Assange needs to be free. As a country we can do that and also make ourselves more secure. We shouldn’t be involved in imprisoning journalists. It’s a slippery slope that gives small brained bureaucrats ideas. They might someday want to imprison their political opponents for bad speech or misdemeanors like trespass. Totally weak leaders.
Trump flubbed this one. McConnell and Schumer must of threatened his kids to get him to ignore stuff like this. On his own Trump wouldn’t care but I felt in the last year he started walking on eggs shells and trying to please the left. GWB did the same.
@ right_wing2:
Is that like HIV for cats? Has it always existed? I’ve been part of a 12 cat and 16 cat families. Usually only one or two were indoor cats. A couple of them seemed like small mountain lions.
We never went to a vet for the animals. They lived and died as a community. We had distemper twice which was bad. We were emotionally attached to each cat. Each cat was a comedian in training.
I remember only having one cat that lived a full life. She was the matriarch of the broods.
Thinking of cats made me laugh about one of the kids. When she was five I was trying to get her to sleep too early. She sprang out of bed and I picked her up to put her back to bed but she made a star with arms and legs and locked herself in the doorway.
I couldn’t budge her without using a lot of strength so I had to talk her down.
I was impressed she intuitively knew how to use leverage. But I don’t remember laughing about it until later.

MUST WATCH: Kamala says ‘democracy’ is biggest national security threat
“Frankly, one of them is our democracy,” Harris said.
** Some R’s seem to think the 2022 election will right the wrongs. I don’t think so. The educational system needs to be revamped and we need to teach a generation of kids differently. Way too many of them confusing CRT with racial harmony. I’m for racial harmony but no CRT. They can’t grasp the difference unless they are actual communists.
@ darkwords:
FIV is like HIV. I am doing this from memory because anyone can Google shit and look intelijent.
There are five types of FIV but vaccines only available for two types.
It is USUALLY transmitted by deep bites, not sharing food, water or litter boxes or contact.
So if you have a FIV positive cat it will be much more susceptible to any diseases or infections. But strictly speaking FIV does not kill a cat.
( Kind of like HIV itself does not kill humans. The destruction of the immune system does. )
@ darkwords:
At this point, the public education system needs to be abolished. It’s beyond salvage. Too many current teachers have been indoctrinated in woke nonsense, and there’s no way to keep them from just going back to what they were doing. No laws will change that.
One of the worst things in the Dems’ Build Back Broke bill is their plan for “universal pre-k.” That’s nothing more than an expansion of the indoctrination programs to even younger ages.
Good stuff on this live stream.

@ Bunk Five Hawks X:
Some Reddit channels are boring. Some have good shit on them, some with sometimes not nice content have a NSFW tag and you have to explicitly open the pic/video
Some have none of those safeguards and you go there and you get to see things no human should see.

Yes I am in a much better mood for some reason. Took out some trash, half cleaned the bathroom and casually attacked the kitchen. Hey the modern squirty stuff really gets rid of grease and curry spills fast!
I am optimistic things will get better. Only problem is neutering the cats. No sharp knife but I have a ballpoint pen.
( wondering why they call it a ball point? Just point it at balls? I may give it a try…. )
One last thought before I depart.

@ Possum:
Just saw a sci fi movie the other day where duct tape saved the crew from exploding and getting sucked into space.

Currently at the lift off stage in the movie. No duct tape required yet.
But I have a strange feeling, 13 is an unlucky number.
@ eaglesoars:
There are a couple of China experts that state the west has its head up its ass in regards to China. The west likes to judge China using Western standards and ethics. But China has a Chinese plan that has no value in western ethics. And their plan is a world hegemony based on the ruins of the free market system.
@ darkwords:
Many years ago lots of companies outsourced manufacturing overseas. China and Taiwan specifically.
The reason often stated was cheaper labour.
My question is, semi-conductor manufacture. Why? That is one of the LEAST labour intensive things I can think of.
I have a feeling it was cheaper to manufacture semi conductors overseas because of two reasons.
1, The manufacture uses rare earth elements that are expensive to import into the USA. Tariffs and all that shit and lack of mining here.
2, Safe toxic waste processing. The electronics industry produces nasty waste. Costly to make safe and dispose of in the USA.
@ Possum:
No OSHA in Asia. Lots of picture of toxic waste befouling Chinese rivers.

They are absorbing the cost of making an extra dollars and exchanging it for the health of the citizen.
I agree. We could just create a robot factory now to make chips and phones etc.
@ Possum:
I worked in a Zenith factory long ago assembling radios. My job was to take a rack of radios and run them through an acid bath to clean the circuit boards. Before the circuit board was used in the radi.
They gave me gloves to protect my hands but my hands turned an odd yellow color from the work. Lasted a year or so.
If your Zenith radio broke at Christmas it’s because I was trying to flirt with the hot blonde chick from Texas on my assembly line. True story. lol. I got flagged for slowing the line down and also for having more failed components than the other line workers. Left shortly there after to join the military.
People don’t understand how women can mess up national security. Sneak a late night date into your secure work area and tell her if I press this everything goes to hell.
@ darkwords:
I totally agree. Return strategic non labour intensive manufacturing back to the USA whatever the cost in safely doing it.

Chris Wallace’s first CNN show got the lowest ratings in cable history. Wait until next week. They usually get their biggest “pop” on their opening show
@ Calo:
Looking forward to it!
Also there was a dusky coloured gentlemen prowling apartment complex when I got back. Invited him in to take a look.
I said ” not quite finished yet ”
He said ” OK I will let office know”
I said “Things OK now? I still have cleaning to do ”
He kind of said ” yes ” ( his English was terrible, why do they let foreigners live here? )
On a more serious note…..
Got that spreadsheet think kind of rocking and rolling, sort of.

If you have 1st generation landlord from the 3rd world always pay your rent a day early and never ask for a repair. Do it yourself.
Clove leaves behind the stove and behind the base molding slows down roaches.
Borax dusted everywhere then mopped and vacuumed up does away with bedbugs and fleas. Not sure if its good for cats.
Cotton balls soaked in sugar and boraxo will kill all ants.
Can’t do much about the neighbors in an apartment building best to get a corner unit up high or down low.
Burning coffee in a coffee can on a stove will remove the smell of a dead body after a few hours.
Gnats bite the dust if you take a McDonalds cup and pour an oz of Vingegar or Orange Juice in it. Cover with saran wrap. Rubber band the saran wrap and cut a 1/2 inch slit in the saran wrap. The gnats will climb in and can’t get out.
Tea Tree oil and Peppermint oil are suppose to deter spiders. Though I think it just makes them irritated.
Cats are sensitive to all that probably.
An old landlord showed that stuff to me so that I wouldn’t over chemicalize pest management in an apartment building. Seemed to work.
@ darkwords:
The 3rd world landlord wants you as a tenant but just doesn’t want to put a dime back into the property. They overleveraged the purchase and its their foothold into America. The vacate notices don’t mean anything if you comply and stay in their good graces.
Least favorable tenants that get their attention.
Drugs.
Violence.
Late rent repayments.
Nuisance.
I used to go over tenants in my mind at night and assign each one a “yes” or a “no” If No, then do I keep them or push them out. To be a no, you had to be not paying any rent or were bothering other tenants.
I’d bring them English cookies once a year and serve Guinness to any repair people I dealt with.
Your missing stuff is a little concerning. To me that means an exit at some point.

I knew a guy who did maintenance at an apartment complex, and there was one tenant who complained incessantly about problems that didn’t exist. Maintenance crew decided to give her something to complain about. They took a couple of sardines, tied string around the tails, removed the cover of a light switch and hung them in the wall cavity. They let her complain about the smell for a week or so, then went in and “fixed” the problem.
Cruel but effective.

Some one remembers him fondly and with grace.
Please bear with the thread, but Harry Reid meant a lot to me and I want to share a short story about why. In 2002, I was press secretary for Senator Paul Wellstone’s re-election campaign in Minnesota.
On Oct 25, 2002, Paul, his wife Sheila, daughter Marcia, my colleagues Tom, Mary and Will, and two pilots were killed in a plane crash. Harry Reid was one of the first of Paul’s colleagues to fly in. Still in shock, I spent all day taking him around to events and sorting politics
At the end of the day, I took him back to the airport. I was driving Will’s car. The same big black SUV that Will drove Paul and me in to most campaign events.
Someone must have told Reid that Will was my boyfriend. And that at one point in the schedule, I was meant to be on the plane with Paul. It was a fluke I wasn’t that day.
When we went to say goodbye, he asked if he could speak to me alone. He then walked me out to his private plane – a casino jet they had chartered- and asked me to come sit inside with him.
I hesitated. He said: I know what you lost and I know whose car you drove today. And I don’t want you to be afraid to get on a plane for the rest of your life. So let’s just go sit together for a little while.
And so we got on the plane and had a cup of coffee. We shared stories about Paul – how brave he was voting against the war in Iraq. He showed me the fancy gadgets on the plane, crazy to him, having grown up so poor. And I told him about Will, and our plan to move back to DC.
He said he knew I had lost my home and my job, but I had one with him whenever I was ready. The empathy and emotional fortitude he showed that day has stuck with me always. And it wasn’t just that day; he followed up to reiterate his offer two more times.
When I joined @BarbaraBoxer a few months later he said “she’s the best! But I’m still here if you need me.” I spent 7 years with Boxer, working closely with Reid’s team and Democratic leadership. He always had a joke or a kind word for me.
The night we passed the Affordable Care Act, we were working through an impasse over women’s health services with Reid keeping Senators Boxer and Ben Nelson in different rooms. It was Christmas Eve, snowing and everyone was exhausted.
We had no food and everything was closed: we ate a tin of holiday nuts and cookies sent by constituents and lobbyists. Reid needled Schumer for stealing all the cashews. We tried and failed to light the fireplace. And we finally got a deal as the snow really came down.
Together, with all of us in the room, Reid called President Obama from on speaker- I think it was a flip phone- and said we have a deal and we’re headed to the floor. We cheered and the President thanked us all.
Harry Reid played a defining role in two bookends of my Senate career. He was powerful and strategic, but also wry and soulful. I’m grateful to have known him, for what he gave this country, and for what he gave me sitting together quietly on a plane in Minnesota. RIP

Messing about and bad behavior during a flight and the Feds take a very hard line. QANTAS by LAW is required to carry two sets of cuffs and 2 baton. Air NZ is less tough. They carry 2 sets of cuffs and a single baton. On a flight Wellington to Melbourne a drunken bitch was playing-up. The Chief Purser reported to the cockpit to report her. We called ahead and the Feds met the flight. Meanwhile the ‘Check and Training Captain’ who was ‘checking’ our flight decided he had to intervene. The Tech crew didn’t care as it distracted the Check Captain as we got an easy ride. The Check Captain took his Aviation Offences book and a set of ‘cuffs’. The Engineer, being a typical engineer, told the Check skipper to take a baton as well, and to hit her between the eyes to … ‘Attract her attention’…. The Check skipper thought he was serious and said ..” ohh I couldn’t do that”…..
He then disappeared through the cockpit door, and the Chief Purser gave is a blow by blow commentary over his phone. The Check skipper waved his law book at the drunken woman and warned her. The Chief purser was laughing so much the dropped the phone…. She’s kicked him in his ‘naughty bits’ , meanwhile the Check skipper was rolling around on the deck holding his balls. Three crew cuffed her hands behind her back and strapped her down the back in a seat.
When our flight eventually landed in Melbourne the Feds go onto the aircraft via the back stairs while the Check Captain got off up front.Then I had to race down the arrivals tunnel looking for the missing Check Skipper as the Feds wouldn’t move the woman until she was released from the aircraft’s ‘cuffs. I finally caught up with the Check Skipper got his ‘cuff key and raced back to the aircraft. The Feds had meanwhile been interviewing the drunken woman and she was as nice as pie and calm and rational. As soon as one wrist was free of a cuff she lashed out at the female Fed and opener up her face with the cuff on her other wrist. Three Feds jumped up and down on the woman for about 30 seconds until she stopped moving and then one of them dragged her down the aisle and down the back stairs and her face his every step on the way to the tarmac. They then picked her up and threw her physically into the back of a paddy wagon.
You don’t mess with the Aussie Feds!

Meantime our whole crew got a well done from the Check Captain!

1. “Only sotrovimab works for omicron comes from in vitro data — the paper describing efficacy says u can’t r:o efficacy via alternate binding sites
[link to site imbedded as object, can’t reproduce here]
2. CDC overestimated omicron prevalence by a lot!
3. A # of reports point to omicron being mild .. AND providing immunity against more lethal variants .
4. Shutting off supply of Antibodies that work against non-omicron variants in the midst of the NE winter surge?? Befuddling

I’m not amazed that Biden’s approval ratings are in the mid-40%’s, what I am amazed by is that over 40% of Americans think the Biden administration is doing such a good job they approve of what is happening. I find that more than frightening.

His approval ratings are not above 35% (and I think that’s high). I’m betting it’s around 12%. Nixon’s was 33% when he got on the chopper.

Yep, not going to dance on his grave, but I’m not going to give artificial plaudits either. He was a very evil man in his life and was ruthless to those who opposed his tyrannical views. Obviously he had some likable traits or he would not have been able to get elected so long and do so much damage to our country.

I was going by a Fox News story I heard this morning while Mom & Dad had it on at 1000 dB. It was a Gallup poll, so, yeah, you can knock 10 favorable points off of that for polling bias. Trump was at 36% but that was after a full year of 98% negative news coverage vs. the 98% positive cover that the Biden administration has been provided by the propaganda arm of the DNC, the Mainstream Media.
I think we’ve reached peak crazy.

Yah I would say that that woman in insane.
@ AZfederalist:
I think they are probably trying to keep their heads above 30 percent. If they report it below that then it means they are losing their own base. A couple more kabuls and he is toast in his own party.
Trump talked business. Biden is busy being shuttled around for photo shoots.
Big push to delegitimatize Trump occurring on the right. I would have pardoned assange and snowden and the jan 6th protestors. But I’ll still vote for him first unless DeSantis wins the primaries. I think he will rule with a vengeance if he gets a second term.
In case you were wondering why Bill Gates was buying up all that farmland
In September, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) announced it had developed a new asset class and listing vehicle aimed at “preserving and restoring the natural assets that ultimately underlie the ability for there to be life on Earth.” The vehicle, known as a natural asset company, or NAC, will enable the formation of specialized firms “that own the rights to the ecosystem services produced on a certain piece of land, such as carbon sequestration or clean water.” The natural assets that these NACs commodify will subsequently be maintained, managed, and grown by them.

@ eaglesoars:
That is dystopian and frightening all at the same time. That is a totally made-up asset class with no reality attached to it. I would like to say, “good luck trying to find people willing to put money in that, but there are a lot of crazy people running things these days.

In economics there was a term for value that existed but wasn’t accounted for in the spreadsheet. Can’t remember the name. I can see Gates wanting to buy spotted owl rights for his properties. Then reselling the property but not selling the spotted own right.
Grew up on a farm. I can’t see any of the farmers i knew going along with this. They probably wouldn’t mind issuing stock based on the amount of hog manure on the farm.

Doctor Submits Fluvoxamine EUA Application to FDA
— Group of physician-scientists believes data support authorization for treating COVID-19
t took about 4 days for David Boulware, MD, MPH, to write the FDA emergency use authorization (EUA) application for fluvoxamine.
Yes, a doctor wrote an EUA application — a task that has typically been relegated to pharmaceutical companies — and yes, it was for a generic drug that physicians could technically prescribe off-label.
But Boulware, of the University of Minnesota, who is involved in a trial that’s investigating fluvoxamine and other repurposed drugs — along with a handful of other doctors and researchers — took it upon themselves to apply because they believe the data substantiate its use in COVID-19.
“The big thing is, the data [are] available,” Boulware said in an interview, referring to two published randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials. “There should be enough data that the FDA would approve this under the normal review process to add a new indication for the drug.”

What I don’t get is the jeans that are ripped to shreds. Mom wouldn’t let us leave the farm wearing something like that. Whenever I see it, I annoy Mrs Federalist by commenting about how tough times must be that people are reduced to wearing rags.
