Friday Ephemera (681)
Admit it, your mind went there. || Meet the girls. || Houseguest of note. || Turns out it could go either way. || Quite the grip. || Good to know. || Greetings, fellow women. || Sudden weight gain. || The woodpecker’s tongue. || The Great Chicken War. (h/t, Mark) || Repeat after him. || I have questions, but I hesitate to ask. || Coaster skillz. || Cloaking device. || Eurocrash. || Rainbow. || Beats and blobs, together at last. || Bold strategy. || At least she put down the baby. || The progressive dining experience, a possible series. || Incoming. || Incoming 2. || Vein viewer. || Vending issues. || This is one of these. || On being obliged to compete unfairly: “You kind of, like, smile when you’re uncomfortable.” || And finally, one of the things that dogs can’t do, at least, not terribly well.

I certainly would not trust Mozilla, as they went “woke” years ago.
Eight years of ‘transitioning’? ‘Emotionally mature man’? The self-deception on display is frightening, if inherent in the ideation.
Apparently w to m transitioning is just another way to self-loath.

No the Baroness has very little leverage other than appealing to a sense of decency and rationality which is pretty much non-existent in our ruling classes.
The government is rapidly falling apart (3 MP’s resigning in the last 48 hours) while the opposition are still largely seen as a joke. If there was ever a time for the minority “slightly closer to being actual conservatives” parties to band together and campaign on reducing immigration, banning CRT from schools and institutions and tearing up net zero this is it. There’s also an infrastructure white elephant called HS2 which 99.9% of the population wants scrapped. Unfortunately they refuse to even consider this, in public anyway. I despair for my country.
Having applied in 2016 I should reach the top of the green card line by 2030 or 2031. I think I’ll be going for it if I’m still around.
A letter and flag soon to be added, though it may be “somewhat controversial”.

The Bee couldn’t have made this one up.
The cables to Africa represent colonialism. The cables from Africa represent the exploitation that results from colonialism. FIFY.
Hence all the noise lately regarding UFOs and aliens. After all, once the nice old biddies down at the Lutheran church are f****g the three toed sloths and alpacas the virtuous will need to have something new that they can brag about f****g. Because what else would one expect from this brave new f*****g world?
Damned if you don’t, damned if you do.
Bestiality by any other name . . .
When vandalism is rebranded inclusivity, your culture is moribund.
Colette, ain’t wrong, he is truly losing it.
Can’t say this guy isn’t over the target also.
For progressives and others on the left of politics, it has been axiomatic for decades that the reason their preferred candidates so often fail to engage the public is, they allege, because the public aren’t educated enough to see through the propaganda of the corporate-backed media.
The solution, therefore, is to take back education and remake it as it “should be”.
Let’s see how well that’s going shall we?
A question is asked.
WATCH THE GAY KISSING VIDEO IN MATHS CLASS OR I WILL PUNISH YOU.
Not a good look, really. But then, as seen so many times, they’re not good people.
Presumably, the conceit is that any gay pupils will somehow feel affirmed, rather than, say, mortified, or made complicit in something that’s naff and contrived. Indeed, rather weird.
I think we’ll give that one a post of its own. Comments that-a-way.
And speaking of unfair competitions.
“Nobody is afraid of gay people.”
Mostly true, but there are a small number of people who do say that all gays are child molesters, criminals, etc. Absurd generalizations relieve (lazy, stupid, or crazy) people of the burden of thought.
The ideal reaction is not to be intolerant of gays, but to be intolerant of leftist indoctrinators.
Given the state of the ad biz, I question whether that really was unintentional.
No, they’re not.

They’ve been around for some time now. They’re rather useless in practice except very-dark-skinned toddlers.
