White vegans, stop appropriating food
Stick to egg, bacon and a fried slice.
There’s also a “hot Italian” variant
Oo-er.
I’ll just leave this here….

So, Mr Sampson says that law-abiding people being preyed upon and having their homes violated, repeatedly, and having their families put in danger by criminal vermin, should cheerily surrender to it and not complain. Because, somehow, they aren’t the victims. You see, Mr Sampson “cares about other people.” But only the ones who want to break into your home, terrorise your family, degrade your lives, and steal your belongings, the things you had to work for.
He then implies that, not being white, he shouldn’t be disagreed with.
It’s not always easy to articulate the precise level of contempt these twats deserve.
Anya Zoledziowski and Her Fellow Travelers* can fuck right off. The Great Shit Testing cannot come to a violent end soon enough.
So, Mr Sampson…
Is as is so often the case rather light-skinned and apparently has more money to his name than my entire extended family, or all the black people I’ve ever known combined.
Are we taking bets on what kind of neighborhood he grew up in?
apparently has more money to his name than my entire extended family, or all the black people I’ve ever known combined.
And yet he denounces your “privilege” for having things that someone may wish to steal. By breaking into your home.
Mr Sampson clearly regards himself as an elevated being, a bringer of woke wisdom, a moral sophisticate. Alas, he is merely a preening degenerate, and quite commonplace.
Like Mr Clive Stafford Smith, mentioned here.
You see, Mr Sampson “cares about other people.”
Or is it cowardice masquerading as compassion, in the hope that expressing these views means he will be immune from the violence (or at least further down on the hit list)?
“Vegans”
Reminds me of this classic exchange in Scott Pilgrim:
Vegan Police : [whips out notepad] 12:47 on February 1st: You knowingly ingested gelato.
Todd Ingram : Gelato isn’t vegan?
Vegan Police : It’s milk and eggs, bitch.
Vegan Police : [still reading] On April 4th, 7:30 pm, you partook of a plate of chicken Parmesan.
[Envy gasps, then glares at Todd]
Todd Ingram : [feeble] Chicken isn’t vegan?
Ran across this re-reading a Tom Wolfe essay:
Seems apt in these times.
Ace of Spades:
‘I would imagine that seeing blacks parading through white neighborhoods with drums and horns at 2am telling whites “No justice, no sleep” and demanding they give their homes to black people is undermining Black Lives Matter’s claim that black people are just absolutely terrified of police.’

Oh, and here’s something savoury.
This is a case where “This Is Not Your Father’s Sausage™” would be a catchy slogan and much-needed words of reassurance.

Sampson does the “oh those are just physical things easily replaced” fuckery that’s on par with the shrieking hysterics against anyone worried how they business will survive the Wuhan Bat Lab virus lockdown “You care more about money than LIVES!! RHEEEE!”
Every one of those physical things that amoral carbunkles like Sampson feelz should be up for looting on whim represents “X” amount of time from the owner’s life. X time working to earn the money to purchase it. Time that can never be recovered. These assholes are stealing “just a physical thing” they are stealing a portion of that owner’s LIFE. And no, it is not “easily” replaced. It will take more TIME from the owner’s life to replace it, even if the “just physical things” are insured. And then there’s the “just physical things” that represent much more than just the portion of the owner’s life to acquire it. The things that represent the lives of the owner’s parents or grandparents. Stuff that cannot be replaced.
And that’s before even the shattered feelings of security, the feelings of being violated when unknown strangers destroy personal boundaries as well as stealing part of their lives.
There’s a reason why the victims of burglaries liken the experience to rape.

Used to be a place in Cocoa, FL called Grandpa’s Steak House. You could buy t-shirts there printed with their slogan, “You just can’t beat Grandpa’s meat”.

Right, tomorrow’s Ephemera has been compiled and should materialise just after midnight.
Have a fine evening, all.

Sure, but this asshole is a tech CEO, a Forbes 30 Under 30, a Thiel fellow! The sort of chap who puts his pronouns in his bio so the rest of know that he’s one of the anointed. He’ll make enough money in ten minutes to replace the sort of “mere stuff” people are complaining about, and that ten minutes will be spent in air-conditioned offices, scribbling on a whiteboard or giving an interview for some puff-piece in the Silicon Valley fishwrap.
When you’ve no comprehension of hard labor nor scarcity, it’s easy to shrug off losses like this. Doubly so when you’re living in a high-rise condo with armed security in the lobby, making the whole discussion academic.
I’d love to see this clown spout off these “arguments” in an old mining town, explaining to the locals that it’s really no big deal when the Sunday dresses — that some poor working stiff bought his wife and daughters with money he earned from spending 80 days sweating underground — get stolen off the clothesline by a gypsy family passing through. Tell a bunch of guys with drills and hammers to ask themselves what it is they could have done to make it unnecessary for the wanderers to steal from them.
And what really chaps my ass is that Mr. Sampson will climb into his 10,000-thread-count sheets tonight and sleep like a baby, secure in the knowledge that he’s one of the Good Guys because of his exquisitely developed sense of empathy. I hope somebody lights him on fire just so I can refuse to piss on him.
if you watch sci-fi movies featuring 8 foot tall aliens
All of the stunt performers who played the aliens in question were black. So there’s that.
Then again, all of the actors who played Ferengi on Deep Space Nine were Jewish.

That’s fascinating. According to Wikipedia’s list of polls, A Random Democrat was leading Trump 50-38 last October. One poll at the end of July gave him a narrow lead.
I’m not a betting man, but I’m seriously considering putting a few quid on The Donald.
No mention of John and Lorena Bobbitt in all of these comments? Have we forgotten already?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_and_Lorena_Bobbitt
“…After a while driving and struggling to steer with one hand, she threw it out the window into a roadside field. She eventually stopped and called 9-1-1, telling them what had happened and where the penis could be found. John Bobbitt’s penis was found after an exhaustive search, and after being washed with antiseptic and packed in saline ice, it was re-attached in the hospital where he was treated. The operation took nine and a half hours.[3] Bobbitt went on to star in two pornographic films in the 1990s,and states that his penis is “back to normal”….”
A penis isn’t vegan?
“Have we forgotten already?”
Well, we’ve been trying to. Thanks. I’ve been having nightmares about that for 27 years.
Now we know the substance of the infamous, unsavory wandering Sausage Roll. Best Before Date explains why it is still hiding under the fridge eyeing Julia.

Hmmm Plant Based
Evidently not Redwood or even a Sunflower. Possibly Alfalfa?
