Friday Ephemera (790)
And lo, his chakra was awakened. || He’s their king now. || With utmost care. || Drinking coffee from a cup made of coffee. || How to repel customers. || Hey, ladies. || Hot and lumpy. || A project for the weekend – requires patience and a jumping spider. || She calculates your privilege in the fat hierarchy. || Pizza bubbles. || Biblical angels. || Giger’s Alien. || He loves it, you know. || Scholarship, you say. || Claim, counterclaim, indignation. || Godliness detected. || Hey, kids, meet the switched-on bishop and her crew. || “A beautiful woman by day, a lusting queen wasp by night.” || Nommy-nommy-nom. || Neighbourliness. || I did not know that. || Unseen sitter, 2:30 am. || Fitness regime. || He’ll fit right in and flourish, I’m sure. || And finally, as a dentist, she doesn’t have to obey the law.

And in rewatching The X-Files for the first time in thirty-odd years news, tonight’s offerings are Tempus Fugit and Max, which, if memory serves, aren’t bad.
Plane crash, tractor beam, missing time, etc.
I knew that. I saw the dancing TikTok nurses during COVID. 100% there were hippos.
Or I could be thinking of Fantasia.

I used to work at a pizza-by-the-slice joint, and so we were shoving pizzas into the ovens all day.
Occasionally the crust would bubble like that. We called them fetuses and then punctured them with the long two-tined forks we had.

Your Florida Dentist has apparently had most charges dismissed. She will undergo probation and then have a clean record.

That is the county charges. I don’t know how the USAF deals with such things, but in the military she still would have to contend with Articles 113 & 133 of the UCMJ at a minimum.
Seems an odd time to go all bashful.
More on the Beeb.

Was she THAT stupid about moving to a Third World country? Does no one do any research and consideration before making a big decision?
How long until the BBC “reports” matzoh is made from the blood of Muslim children?
They haven’t?

Applause, please for Roman Signer creating art.
A fair response.
“I am in control of my life. Because I am capable of powerful positive change.”
That voice shouts “I am on powerful sedatives. Or am an NPR host or listener.”

Skokie, whose founding motivation was that (1) American gentiles didn’t much want Jews living among them (2) given that its population explosion was after Shelley vs Kramer removed the legal barriers, maybe also, just maybe, Jews preferred to live among their own than among goys.
But now, Skokie’s Assyrian population is approaching its Jewish population,with Assyrians possibly the largest ethnic group among the school-age population. What is even an Assyrian? Is the Oct 7 incident to do with recent history, or is there still some bitterness there about God nuking them when they tried to shoot gel pellets at the Jews in the Bible? Who cares? What is it to to do with us?
When human groups make it clear in advance that they don’t like us and don’t like each other, there’s actually no moral or cultural or economic justification to invite them all to share what used to be idyllic suburbs of Chicago or Gothenburg.
You fail to appreciate the gravity of his work.
Amusing anecdote.
You have to wonder exactly how many eye-widening examples of subhuman savagery, of irredeemable evil, are required before Our Betters question the wisdom of their transformative project. Before they question the cost of all this niceness.

You know, it might be better to let them play video games all day after all.

Hereabouts, the egg tray in the fridge holds only six eggs, due to the need to store at least 612 packs of butter at any given time, and the cartons generally come in twelves or twenty-fours, which raises the question of how to distribute the eggs left in the carton. I opt for a weight-balancing arrangement, whereby eggs are distributed so as to avoid the carton being overly weighted at one end.
Like all good-hearted people.
Riposte.
Unemployment is the goal. They only work the minimum amount to qualify for unemployment again. So they are, kinda, thinking ahead.
Why students in US schools often fail badly is a mystery.
Good thing President Clinton wasn’t involved.

The question liberals and Ring don’t want you to ask.
The example of Eric Hobsbawm should answer that question.

Sshh. Don’t distract me. I’m achieving levels of funkiness you would not believe.

Swipes left so hard she breaks thumb.
This. I saw one once with a young woman who was a SovCit, but clearly not quite sure about it, and one of the nicest cops on the planet. He explained, very politely and patiently, that her choice was between taking the ticket (which she could fight later in court) and going on about her day, or winding up in jail immediately with felony charges. There was a 2 or 3 second pause while you could see her wavering, tempted by the allure of sweet, sweet sanity, but then off the deep end she went.
