Friday Ephemera
Gently does it. (h/t, Darleen) || I’m no structural engineer, but I question the choice of material here. || “They mostly come at night, mostly.” || Children are not nunchucks. Because apparently this fact isn’t sufficiently obvious. || When you want your seafood fresh. || We are always falling. || For fitness enthusiasts, a lower back workout. || What sorcery is this? (h/t, Julia) || Seating choice of note. || Typographical choice of note. || Today’s words are upscale dining experience. || Good doggo. || Dogs versus frisbees, the eternal struggle. || Joe Lincoln, decoy maker, 1926. || Inadvisable. || Destiny. || Bones detected. || Better than one, they say. || Jingle Bells. || And finally, festively, you want one and you know it.
Leo Kearse talks about the Extinction Rebellion white guy with dreadlocks, child cages and “single-use” plastic.
Harry and Stormzy on stage tonight.
Mr Stormzy’s contributions to human flourishing have been noted here before.

I think that that @Abbott4Labour account is a parody/satire. The problem is it’s so hard to tell these days.
Goose with force field.
That is all. Carry on.

LOL They’re mean f*ckers anyway.

One of my early childhood memories is of being taken to a nature park and running around after some geese. Apparently, four-year-old me chased them around the corner of a building and – with what I’m told was comical timing – emerged seconds later, running at full tilt, with the aforementioned birds in hot pursuit and in a quarrelsome mood.
Uh oh … how long until this study is denounced, the researchers fired, and the SJWs burn it like they want to do to Harry Potter and all the rest of the books Nazis support?
Uh oh … how long until this study is denounced…?
Approximately seven femtoseconds.
I’m SOOOO glad I’m not a supervisor anymore. There are employees that make you yearn for a button on your desk with a pit of alligators in the basement.
Uh oh … how long until this study is denounced…?

Today’s word is suspense.
“… Lyles, who was told they could ask for…”
Stoopid CBS. Should have wrote “who were told”.
Lyles should sue CBS for misnumbering them.
Never heard of that microaggression? Where you bin?
That’s been the hot button issue since,like, noon!
Nazi.
(I pollute David’s blog like this because I’d rather Eisenhower myself with a rusty spoon than have a Twitter account. Sorry.)
Today’s word is suspense.
……………………….. [primal scream]…….
“Eisenhower”
Ha, ha.
Autocorrected from “disembowel”.
I fu**ing Love Technology!
Article of interest this morning concerns young Isolde (Izzy) Raj-Seppings. Her name pretty well tells you everything you need to know, but I’ll go on anyway. The article describes Izzy’s actions as “an emotional yet brave display”. Something tells me that even if Izzy and her dad had not complied with the very politely put request from the policeman to move on, she is in no danger. The article is nestled amongst many that describe the terrible bushfires confronting large parts of NSW. There are many professional and volunteer firefighters fighting to save lives and properties in appalling conditions – these people are truly brave and courageous.

I thought it was UK English slang like “roger” only nastier, especially when you brought the rusty spoon into it.

Oh, bollocks.
The problem is it’s so hard to tell these days.
True, but no excuse really.

Plan B: flamethrower.
Plan C: moving house.
When leftists play Sim City, oddly enough, you get the projects on steroids.
Because the likes of Cabrini Green were the clear solution and worked so well, but this time it will be different, because mentally ill and drug addled “homeless” are known for being extremely responsible.
“Say”, you ask, “what will this shining city on a hill look like ?” Glad you asked, please check out #34 “CITIZEN PROCESSING: Intake, rehab, detention, and departures”. With a train station. I don’t know who thought that up, but it has never been tried before. Also note Items 22, factories for the “citizens”, I again can’t think of where that has been tried before.
Check out the whole thing, admire the rooms, the mess hall, the
pipe dreamlow cost to run.Finally I couldn’t help to notice that the galaxy brains who thought this up are based in Folsom, CA, not that there is anything there that could be an inspiration for this mess.
Four legs good, two legs bad.
And speaking of Mr Stormzy.
Four legs good, two legs bad.
Read the whole thing here, some snips to whet your appetites.
WTF ? Being able to walk and use hand tools at the same time does not “appear” to be useful, it built the damn world as we know it, and last I looked, the “idea” of evolution was to theorize how we came to be from lesser animals, not some touchy-feely crap.
Oh, well, as rigorous as astrophysics, then.
I’ll admit I have no idea why the swim stroke is called the crawl, but on land I have yet to see neither man nor beast “crawl” by kicking its legs and rotating its front limbs, so how that makes us realize we are quadrupeds when actually what is happening is equivalent to running on legs (or goosestepping) whilst using our hands to pull escapes me, but then I am not versed in either cultural or feminist science studies.
Just shoot me. No wait, that is what is what is done in those places that use humans instead of animals for experiments.
Come on, you all knew that would be in there somewhere, admit it.
RTWT, if you dare.
Supply your own emesis basins.
University of Helsinki. Well, consider the source.
Come on, you all knew that would be in there somewhere, admit it.
As so often with these things, there’s an air of wearying predetermination, of supposed conclusions arrived at well in advance of any actual thinking, or facsimile of thinking, and regardless of reality.
And in overseas news.
And in overseas news.
The good news is cultural and feminist science studies experts will never want for statisticians as qualified as they are.
Serious note on the nanchuk scene.
This represents a deeply ingrained adversely developed culture.
All cultures are equal though of course.
