Meanwhile, in Canada.
We don’t pussy-foot around up here. I’m not going to take any lip about it either.
Cross-cultural interaction
People are laughing. Is that a dumb question?
How prescipient of you Sir.
Or even percipient
Surprisingly casual
Can anyone identify that shirt? Some organization maybe?
Musical interlude.
Visualize Herman Munster or Lurch dancing to that.
One woman’s war on “promiscuous kissing.”
A much less notable musical interlude, but I thought it was very funny when I was 13.
Meanwhile, in Canada
My elected government representative, ladies and gentlemen.
British people, you can have your King Arthur returning to save the land in its darkest hour thing if we can borrow Oliver Cromwell. We’ll have him back by 11.
Meanwhile, in Canada.
I don’t recall this Kids in the Hall sketch.
That’s a lot of transgender paedophilia.
Ahem:
“Whenever women protest the inclusion of trans-identified males in our spaces, we’re shouted down and dismissed as transphobes and hysterics. There is no risk, we’re in danger, this never happens, we’re told. When we produce evidence to the contrary, we’re accused of bigotry and of demonising trans people. We cannot win.”
Why is that, as man, this scenario seems somehow so familar?
Those gentlemen in plaid win the Straight Face For The Longest Time Award.
That’s a lot of drag-for-kiddies. || That’s a lot of transgender paedophilia.
They don’t even pretend it’s not grooming anymore.
They don’t even pretend it’s not grooming anymore.
We really need a clear and handy term for this particular strain of malignant leftist, like faggonist or onanazi.
“Attention, children, your role-model adult has arrived.”
“I could use some support and affirmation”
What he needs is someone to say no.
Neutralising tremors.
Is that for real?
“The machine uprising, day 3.”
The only answer to a bad machine is…a good machine?
Morning, all.
Is that for real?
Yes.
What he needs is someone to say no.
As we’ve seen before, our self-styled “teacher in drag” is apparently accustomed to being indulged and having his preferences prioritised over those of pretty much anyone else.
this never happens, we’re told.
And yet it does, rather a lot. As noted before, transgender people report severe childhood abuse, often childhood sexual abuse, at rates far higher than is found in the wider population. It’s practically a signature. Adults who have been violated as children are in turn much more likely to act inappropriately with minors. In light of which, the, shall we say, oversharing of so many transgender and “non-binary” educators, their disregard for normal boundaries – and other, more concerning behaviour – is not entirely surprising. What is surprising is that it seems we aren’t supposed to acknowledge such concerns.
Songs like X. For finding new music like the music you know.
Hold my calls.
That’s a lot of transgender paedophilia
We’re going to need a bigger wood-chipper.
A test of manliness.
Get a knife under the rim and break the vacuum.
Get a knife under the rim and break the vacuum.
That, as they say.
For finding new music like the music you know.
“Give us your favourite track and we’ll serve up a
sweetplaylist withsimilarsongs that are covers or are nothing like what you are looking for (because all we do is word match and not particularly well) thatyou’ll lovewill leave you saying WTF?!”Fixed it for them.
A test of manliness.
I am calling shenanigans.
A test of manliness.
Whenever there is a pickle jar that needs to be opened, the first thing I reach for is my camera because…oooooh, this is gonna be Grrrreat!
Get a knife under the rim and break the vacuum.
Will that advice get you put on a watch list in the UK? /slightly sarcastic

Of course here in ‘Merica a good aim with a glancing/tangential shot from a .22 (would not suggest anything much lager in caliber) will spin that top right off.
Sea of the Sweaty People and other map features.
“Police shoot unarmed pregnant woman” becomes “Police shoot armed carjacker who brandished firearm” after bodycam photo is released. She dindu nuffin! Call me crazy, but I am getting the sneaking suspicion that in certain neighborhoods the “witnesses” are all lowlifes.
Well this sounds like Much Science™!
Sea of the Sweaty People
Album title.
Songs like X. For finding new music like the music you know.
Enter “Maybe I’m Amazed”, get 5 versions of it. Enter “Radar Love”, get 4 versions and one other Golden Earring song. Are two of my favorite songs so unique, they can’t find suggestions?
Looks like there’s a purge going on in science fiction-dom. If only they had a union or trade association to stand up for them.

If only they had a union or trade association to stand up for them.
Sarcasm, I assume. After all, we already know that SFWA is run by wannabe Stalinists.
Well this sounds like Much Science™!
Would it be a hate crime to remind them that monogamy prevents STDs?
“a purge going on in science fiction-dom”
So much fun watching revolutionaries eat their children like Saturn.
Songs like X. For finding new music like the music you know.
My wife put in “Gold Dust Woman” and one song that came out was a rough early Velvet Underground “Sweet Jane” which sounded live and also unfamiliar to me. I could swear I’ve heard every version of that song ever done. But memory is fading and it has been a while so…? Still thought that was an interesting “song like” for “Gold Dust Woman”.
Purge in SF…
Well, I read the linked statement, and…who knows what actually happened, since it’s just the purged person’s pov. Sounds like “cool kids” in middle school, knifing a designated victim for ego gratification. I could clearly see the glee in the accusers actions.
What struck me was the poor quality of the writing.
From a mature, award-winning author?
What struck me was the poor quality of the writing.
Off-the-cuff writing is often rather sloppy. And some writers even need editors to do serious fix-up work on their manuscripts.
One woman’s war on “promiscuous kissing.”
Not what I expected.
The themes I expected were: whites (not WASPs in this case but Cincinnati Germans, you know, like Doris Day) and their sexual repressions; social kissing seen in the heartland as effete and un-American; the dark forces of xeno- and homophobia underlying respectable concerns about public health; and wellactually, studies have shown that your probability of catching a disease from kissing is 0.00x% so they’re not only prigs but numerically clueless. Those themes are preset in the NYTimesomatic, maybe turn up the theme of white middle class Karens butting in when people are trying to have fun, then feed in the comic premise and the article writes itself.
Instead the themes were: pioneer woman in STEM not taken seriously by the establishment, a pioneer of #metoo bodily autonomy, and COVID-era ideas about what constitute reasonable risks and proportionate responses.
Pole vault: the guy is a world champion but he looks like a spoiled rich kid and certainly not strong enough to do that. Reality doesn’t always follow our preconceptions.
Wow, Canada has lost the plot.
Do the French still routinely kiss each other on the cheek when they meet?
X draws a blank on God Save the Queen but on God Save the King comes up with several variations and rather unusually with Kill the King by Megadeth
“They don’t even pretend it’s not grooming anymore.”
Clicked and noticed – it’s all wommenz. No “men” (save for the sad little boys) to be found.
Hmmm.
When is Large Intestine Day?
In case you want to know, here’s Stephanie Burke and the kinds of books she writes.
“In case you want to know”
Going out on a limb here, but no thanks. Extremely doubtful that I’m missing much…
Great googly moogly, even the wypipo are getting on the act. Cultural appropriation, I tells ya.
Meanwhile, in Canada.
It is both comical and cringe-inducing to listen to a woman talk about how her vagina is “a source of strength and empowerment”. Consider all those women protesters wearing vagina hats.
Mass psychosis.
Intruiging. Ms Burke is a multi award-winning wife
I do wonder what for – best blowjobs? fastest knicker-dropper? can cook?
OK, groomer.
Consider the benefits – I’m drawing a blank, but what four year old doesn’t dream of seeing saggy middle age men with their johnsons waving in the breeze if it means getting a rainbow ice cream cone and balloon?
“Neutralising tremors.“
A bit late for my old mum, but good to see. As Billy Conolly said, Parkinson should have kept his bloody disease to himself.
“That’s a lot of drag-for-kiddies.”
Okay, just imagine for a moment that these weren’t blokes pretending to be women, but actual strippers and pole dancers.
“One woman’s war on ‘promiscuous kissing.’”
Heh. Imagine that. What a bunch of nuts those old-timey people were. That kind of stupidity could never happen in today’s modern enlightened world of TheScience™, right?
“Musical interlude.”
An oddly appropriate one, in the circs.
“Sea of the Sweaty People and other map features.”
Why is England represented with its modern borders?
the answer is absolutely.
