Friday Ephemera

Further the last several comments in the prior thread. N.B. keeping parents in the dark, gag orders and discipline of male teachers who refuse to be in a locker room with naked teenage girls.

Small claims

A more cerebral item from the intertubes:

Obviously that d*head who wants to sue his/her beekeeper neighbour shouldn’t do it but I kinda wish they would because legal cases against animals or involving animals fascinate me. Ever since in my late teens I read about one European town taking the cats of the village to court for failing to catch and eat sufficient mice (it was a time of plague) I’ve loved turning up such cases.
But yeah, bees are basically filching little bastards, and you’ve got to love them for it. They steal from one another’s hives shamelessly and if you leave a plate of honey out or sugary liquid, you’d better bet they’ll steal it. Bit too late to complain about it, though – the biology of most fruiting plants depend on these dirty filching robbers to survive.

Morning, all.

Heh.

Old, but insightful piece from the Washington Guardian Post, everything wrong with America ranch dressing.
Despite all the virtue signalling:

The ingredients may be organic, locally sourced and so on. But no matter where you raise the beef for your burger, it’s still less healthy and more carbon-intensive than vegetables — and that’s before you put ranch dressing on the fries. Socially responsible eating isn’t knowing the name of the heritage breed of pig your ribs came from. It’s actually minimizing your impact on the planet.

I suspect our author’s real beef boils* down to…

Ranch was invented by a Nebraskan who began serving it in at a dude ranch in California, but its spiritual home has always been the Midwest.

…and if it had been invented in some overpriced diner in a gentrified part of Harlem, he’d be singing its praises.
*(Ranch is great on boiled beef…)

The rise of neo-fascism, who is responsible – not Hitler, not Mussolini, not even Drumpf.

“Tell them to stop listening to my farts! That is not nice.”
That just about sums up the postmodern social world.
Out of the mouths of babes.

“Jigsaw companies tend to use the same cuts for multiple puzzles. This makes the pieces interchangeable.”
That’s my weekend sorted out.

P.S. I always enjoy Friday’s posts.

They really want you to stop eating and die–it’s even less carbon intensive.

Thats why farts stink…so that deaf people can enjoy them, too.

It’s a mystery.

Kool-Aid drinker doesn’t like people saying “don’t drink the Kool-Aid”…

Don’t know about Tesco but this price is right…

Leftist protestors have difficulty processing obvious rebuttal. Silence ensues, then threats.

I don’t lke ranch dressing either, but my goodness. Chill, dude.

Leftist protestors have difficulty processing obvious rebuttal.
I don’t read it as a rebuttal – he’s accepted their premise that white men in the United States shouldn’t be allowed to organize politically, and he’s accepted their premise that brown people are sacred tokens that remove the taint of whiteness.
I don’t read it as “difficulty processing” – they’re no-platforming him, and successfully. The core protesters have clearly been trained to deal with his type, giving him nothing to work with so he has to glean for quotes among the spectators.
From the progressives’ point of view, it’s a good and noble thing for non-whites to put their race first. The black/Mexican woman and the child of illegal immigrants are at best naive idealists who’ve drunk the race-blind Kool Aid that was intended for whites. At worst, they’re race traitors. Their opinions carry no weight.
From the progressives’ point of view, a white man who claims not to see race is nevertheless a white man and as such the enemy. They’re not standing up for principles of race blindness – how many times do they have to say that white people are the problem, white people are the enemy, for white people to figure it out?

Ranch dressing mashed into mashed potatoes – two words: just try it. Okay three words. Thank me later, there’s three more.
Snoop uses mayonnaise for this. Snoop is whiter than me you see. It’s so problematic.
No I will not denounce myself.

The Chameleon bottle?
As Benjamin Franklin probably didn’t say: “In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is [sic] bacteria.”

I used to live in Columbus, Ohio. I never thought students at THE Ohio State University—its official name, as its lawyers are forever reminding local press—would get that worked up about anything besides football.
