LYRICS
Can we erase our history
Is it as easy as this
Plausible deniability
I swear I’ve never heard of it
And I can close the door on us
But the room still exists
And I know you’re in it

Hours of phrases I’ve memorised
Thousands of lines on the page
All of my notes in a desolate pile
I haven’t touched in an age
And I can burn the evidence
But I can’t burn the pain
And I can’t forget it

How does it feel
To be an expert in a dying field
How do you know
It’s over when you can’t let go
You can’t stop
Can’t rewind
Love is learned over time
‘Til your an expert in a dying field

The city is painted with memory
The water will never run clear
The birds and the bees and the flowers and trees
They know that we’ve both been here
And I can flee the country for the worst of the year
But I’ll come back to it

How does it feel
To be an expert in a dying field
How do you know
It’s over when you can’t let go
You can’t stop
Can’t rewind
Love is learned over time
‘Til you’re an expert in a dying field

Can we erase our history
Is it as easy as this
Maybe in other realities
The road never took this twist
And I can close the door on us
But the room still exists

Seems that DeSantis is ahead of TFG in recent GOP popularity polls, but if he really wants to win a general election, he still needs to solidify his support from the hard-core base, who are loyal to a person, not a party.

re: #2 jaunte

Some people want this election to be about the past, but elections are always about the future. Democrats would love nothing more than for Republicans to take our eye off the ball and focus on days gone by.

We are very concerned that upcoming elections do not result in massive clusterfucks like the last one, which is why it is vital to determine what happened and who is responsible so that they do not attempt to repeat it.

Any Republican elected is one more step to completely corrupt the civil service:

“…Trump’s top allies, the Axios series reports, are preparing to radically reshape the federal government if he is re-elected. They plan to purge potentially thousands of civil servants, and fill career posts with loyalists to him and his “America First” ideology…

“Trump’s top allies” are the Republican party, including 6/9s of the Supreme Court.

They will sell it to us as freeing us of the “Deep State” by installing their own Creep State.

This has been their long game since Reagan tossed them aside after they helped get him elected in 1980.

They are trying to pull off a coup that cannot be contested in the courts as it will meticulously follow the letter of the law (with a few letters conveniently deleted when it serves their purpose)

Kinzinger is still a Republican. He has to sell the rot as being centered around Trump with the lie that if Trump is removed all the rot in the GOP is excised along with it.

Otherwise, he has to admit that the party he belongs to is rotten to its very core and his continued voting in lockstop with them 90% of the time is a considerable part of that rot and corruption.

I guess my Fox News brother and SiL have quit their Episcopalian church as it is too woke for them and joined another church more in line with their views.

That goes along with what I heard last year listening to a student of theology. He was bothered by what he heard when he stayed with a pastor who told him some people were switching to churches led by Trumper-pastors.

Unions and Democrats would be expected to immediately fight a Schedule F order. But Trump’s advisers like their chances in a judicial system now dominated at its highest levels by conservatives.

Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), who chairs the subcommittee that oversees the federal civil service, is among a small group of lawmakers who never stopped worrying about Schedule F, even after Biden rescinded the order. Connolly has been so alarmed that he attached an amendment to this year’s defense bill to prevent a future president from resurrecting Schedule F. The House passed Connolly’s amendment but Republicans hope to block it in the Senate.

I don’t think I could name a song from either Kid Rock or Night Ranger.

I can remember several decent Night Ranger songs from my high school era (1979 ~ 1982). “Don’t Tell Me You Love Me” and “Sister Christian” were the “big” hits mostly thanks to MTV. Not the best band ever but far from the worst and certainly more competent than Kid Rock.

And, unlike Kid Rock, I don’t insta-change station if a Night Ranger song comes on the radio.

The state welfare department has fired Brad Pigott, the former U.S. attorney it contracted to claw back millions in misspent federal funds from dozens of people in Mississippi’s sprawling welfare scandal.
The termination comes about a week after Pigott filed a subpoena on the University of Southern Mississippi Athletic Foundation for its communication with several notable people, including former Gov. Phil Bryant, to get to the bottom of why it received $5 million in welfare funds to build a volleyball stadium.

“All I did, and I believe all that caused me to be terminated from representing the department or having anything to do with the litigation, was to try to get the truth about all of that,” Pigott told Mississippi Today hours after his firing on Friday. “People are going to go to jail over this, at least the state should be willing to find out the truth of what happened.”

Since Constantine, Christianity has been a political movement, a religion to justify dominion and conquest.

Are you trying to *save* such cultural relic?

not sure what they’re supposed to be doing. they didn’t give crucifixion victims nice little platforms to stand on. You died by suffocation, and it was a slow process, taking a day or more. Jesus only died when he did because a compassionate centurion was kind enough to inflict a mortal wound on him with a spear. (It was considered a courteous thing to do for prisoners who weren’t right bastards. If they really hated you, they crucified you upside down, like Peter).

Random code share. This computes all of the permutations of a given list or string. The main call, gen_perm, takes care of the subtle differences between strings and lists, and then calls gen_perm2, which actually does the permutation part. As it computes a permutation, it passes it to the “listener” callback, which defaults to the python print method. But you could pass something else in to collect it or whatever.

passing gen_perm( [ 1, 2, 3 ] ) prints out

[1, 2, 3]
[1, 3, 2]
[2, 1, 3]
[2, 3, 1]
[3, 1, 2]
[3, 2, 1]

I like watching this groomer (from Ontario, Canada) do her thing on dogs and cats. (Oh, and once, a dog’s emotional support rat.) She provides information about the breeds of dogs she is grooming, their temperament, what kind of lifestyle/family they’d be suited for and how much upkeep they require. Today’s breed gets mistaken A LOT for *doodle dogs. She went into an explanation about why groomers, trainers and others who deal with dogs are not fond of *doodles. A lot of it has to do with irresponsible breeders, or “greeders,” as she calls them.

Anyway, I learned something today and the dog she groomed was very well-tempered for a nine month old puppy. And no, I hadn’t heard of this breed.

I can remember several decent Night Ranger songs from my high school era (1979 ~ 1982). “Don’t Tell Me You Love Me” and “Sister Christian” were the “big” hits mostly thanks to MTV. Not the best band ever but far from the worst and certainly more competent than Kid Rock.

And, unlike Kid Rock, I don’t insta-change station if a Night Ranger song comes on the radio.

I started watching a youtube video of some guys hiking one of the trails from the south rim of Grand Canyon to the river. The kept a sound track running for the couple of minutes I watched that consisted of Kid Rock material, maybe some other hard rock music, all at loud volume. Disgusted, I quit watching. You simply don’t need that kind of sound track (or any soundtrack, for that matter) in church, which is what the GC is to me.

I just heard TFG’s voice from downstairs so I went to turn the tv off. Someone had left it on CNN. Jim Acosta, whom I like generally, was using it to set up an interview with Marc Lotter who was billed as former Trump strategic communications advisor and now leader of the America First Policy Institute (or something like that).

Acosta: after Trump staged a coup, why bring him back to DC to give a speech?

Lotter: well, given the absolute failure of the Biden administration, he’s got what American is clamoring for….” CLICK.

I know that there is a directive that hosts have to have conservatives on, but this is just campaigning for Trump. Again. Fuck.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said the Republican Party’s primary focus this year should be on making the political party one of Christian nationalism.

Said Greene: “We need to be the party of nationalism and I’m a Christian, and I say it proudly, we should be Christian nationalists.”

She added: “When Republicans learn to represent most of the people that vote for them, then we will be the party that continues to grow without having to chase down certain identities or chase down certain segments of people”

is there any question she said the quiet part loud enough?

I don’t know where you are, but I would suggest looking for churches that tend to be diverse in who attends. The big church here, for all it’s faults (including that it’s BIIIG), is probably more diverse than the population as a whole just because there are a whole lot of small churches for the people I would never want to associate with can go. I don’t go to church, but my parents go to that one, and I have attended once (on their 50th anniversary weekend) and it at least wasn’t one color.

re: #134 Dopamine Fish

Hey Lizards. I’m pretty deflated today. My pastor preached a sermon on the “culture war”, and declared from the pulpit that “if every Christian started actually acting like a Christian, the whole ‘woke’ movement would cease to exist.” Sigh. I mean, I knew that he was a right-winger, and he holds a lot of good positions on a lot of things, but at the end of the day, he’s still a Dominionist at heart.

which part of “acting like a Christian” did he mean?

Feed the hungry, heal the sick, house the homeless, welcome the refugee, pay your taxes, pray quietly at home without making a public spectacle of it?

Or did he mean 1978 Revised Christianity (tm), which is all about force women to breed, hate on homosexuals, and vehemently oppose all the things Jesus preached in favor of?

That’s the thing: He actually means the first type. He’s all on board with real Christianity. He even said in the same sermon that we shouldn’t be judging people and that it’s our mission to love people where they’re at. He’s the weirdest dichotomy; he’s so right on that stuff, but he’s so wrong on the other stuff.

Yikes!

And my family wonders why I want to immigrate to Canada (besides wanting to be with my wife). This is why. These people want me dead and are just waiting for the chance to do it. https://t.co/pyn6iSkqCw

“…he was the architect of the America First policies.”

These people are just deranged. Honestly, these ex-Trump losers created a “think tank” to circle jerk around all day like they had actual policies and take money from morons who believe it. https://t.co/yLjFnH3azt

She added: “When Republicans learn to represent most of the people that vote for them, then we will be the party that continues to grow without having to chase down certain identities or chase down certain segments of people”

I know I’m just pissing into the wind when I say I remember when elected officials tried to make it at least look like they represented all of their constituents but now they’re openly stating they will only represent a select subset of their own voters.

Sounds like he has been fed, or preferred to believe, a particular definition of “woke”.

re: #134 Dopamine Fish

Confront him about it. Them tell him you are reporting him and his church to the IRS.
Or he can repent and preach the actual Gospels of Christ.
This person has no power. He may think he does but he doesn’t.
