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
How does it feel? (how does it feel, does it feel?)
(Expert in a dying field)
How do you know (how do you, how do you, how do you feel?)
Can’t stop, can’t rewind
Love is learned over time
‘Til you’re an expert in a dying field, ah
An expert in a dying field

Pardon me for saying this but he is one very sick person.

For several years my wife was the builder and operator of a medieval roleplay sim in Second Life; one of the people she met there who became a real life close friend (without ever meeting face to face) lives on one of those canal boats.

I think so too. This is the type of thing that makes me want to leave politics altogether.

For now I’m not leaving politics. I’m more concerned about being killed for being an atheist over being a Democrat.

Ben Shapiro is living a pathetic drama he would be embarrassed about if he had a smidgen of self-awareness. And no one believes anyone had to drag him to see that movie.

Maybe he’s mad about plastic-mixing.

“…Over the years, Barbie dolls have developed to comprise a complex - but more stable - chemical cocktail comprising ethylene vinyl acetate arms, acyrylonitrile butadiene styrene torsos, heads of a hard vinyl compound, and outer legs in PVC, although using a different formula from the earlier dolls.”

He’s mad because the Barbie movie ruined his image of Barbie as a complete slut who would actually willingly sleep with him.

Ben’s the kind of guy who probably had a Barbie doll as a kid - one he stole from his sister so he could undress it while touching himself at night.

Good lord! If all the RW nut jobs did was to burn $25 toys because they’ve gone even more insane over a movie, it would still be better than them threatening to kill RNs, poll workers, and school teachers.

Daylilies for a lazy day

Keep on Loving is so pretty. Just love it. Pink, whte and yellow.

Keep on Loving daylily

Burlywhirl is a huge yellow with bloom over 8 inches and it will rebloom, sending up new scapes later. Reblooming is one of the greatest new traits, allowing blooms to be seen for almost month. It is a tertaploid and fragrant, rare for a daylily.

Volcan Fuego is one of my tallest daylilies , able to hold itself upright with scapes over 4 feet high. It towers over the other plants.

There is nothing
Zero
Absolutely nil
Good about
Hundreds of years of subjugation, buying and selling of human beings.

There is no pro side to this
No ray of sunshine
No mitigation
No way to spin it as less than horrific

There is no apt metaphor or comparison to show how utterly evil marketing this idea is.

The conversation itself is insanity.

I know this is kind of sick, but when a violent crime in a rural local made news I used to immediately go to the local topix forum. If you want to refute the “we got each other’s back in a small town” message of the latest Jason Aldine song, look no further than the archives of the topix forums (if they still exist): “Them missin’ women—all strung out on fent!”*; “She went to the police, but her momma started the fight!” etc., etc.

I’ve been employed in small towns; I’ve spent summers in my grandparents’ Georgia small town of 500-tops; they do know each other and have community connections, but the idea that their way of life is superior to cities? Fuck Jason Aldean.

My county is fourth largest in Kentucky in terms of landmass, but our population is only a bit more then 13,000 (county seat population is about 1,300)

And if you weren’t popular in the right circles no one would have noticed or heard people busting down your door one night and trashing your house.

(Friend of mine got on the wrong side of the local yahoos and one of them tried that one night while he and his wife were not home. Guy was met in the doorway apparently by 75lbs of unhappy dog - who was in the house that evening instead of on his chain in the side yard. My friend was able to work out who it was since he had enough connections to that they could find out who’d been treated at the hospital that night for getting bitten on the ass by a dog.)

Many young, ideological, academics never get around to talking about how to live in a complex world where life is about making compromises, every day.

And that leadership is in part about being compromised.

Ideally not due to personal failure or being a tool of malicious agents. (Trump fails on both counts.)

Instead, life is about accepting that parameters are put upon one by the sheer weight of both society and the past.

Hemant Mehta thanked Donald Trump for his ridiculous answer in his “town hall” last night about who is guiding his “faith journey,” which may help drive more people away from Christianity, or at least cause them to deconstruct their beliefs.

That drew a lot of hate on Twitter from wingnuts, and a Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. quote which is true:

BreakTheBS
@BreakTheBS
15h
Replying to @hemantmehta
“…practical atheism -that’s the most dangerous type. And the world, even the church, is filled up with people who pay lip service to God and not life service…”-Martin Luther King Jr.

Jul 22, 2023 * 7:36 AM UTC

The quote comes from a long sermon he gave in his church about “practical atheists,” that is, the No True Christian fallacy, along with theoretical atheists (people like me), who are the real cause of all societies ills.

This dipshyte used that quote to try to claim Hemant Mehta is the real problem here, not Donald Trump’s silly answer.

People never reconcile their past or their present. I had to unfollow so many people who told me I’m a “settler colonialist” (for being American) or said I was “culturally appropriating” (because I taught myself French and I love francophone culture). Some of these people were Canadian, which pisses me off even more as I know their history.

Thanks, Mr. Johnson. When I used the arrow keys I was able to read the entire letter. It does seem sincere, but also belies the real problem: He admits they have a really small team working on the social media site.

Automated moderation is always tricky as he notes, and you must have actual people to read things like context.

Even computer-illiterate people like me are aware of things like The Scunthorpe Problem (in where automated filters might filter out letter strings as slurs or vulgarities).

The problem was named after an incident in 1996 in which AOL’s profanity filter prevented residents of the town of Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, England, from creating accounts with AOL, because the town’s name contains the substring “****”. In the early 2000s, Google’s opt-in SafeSearch filters made the same error, with local services and businesses that included Scunthorpe in their names or URLs among those mistakenly excluded from appearing in search results.

Of course not. Utter lack of self awareness is the signature personality trait of the authoritarians and barbarians masquerading as conservatives.

re: #95 ckkatz

From what I can see, the Census Bureau does not define the term “Small Town”. However, as I understand it, most organizations, like the World Bank use a cap of a population of 5,000.

Jason Aldean was reportedly born and raised in Macon Georgia. It has a population of 150,000 and is one of the 10 largest cities in Georgia.

“Small town” can be approximated to “rural area,” which the Census Bureau does have a definition for.

Defining Rural at the US Census Bureau (PDF, eight pages)

It gives the Bureau’s history of how they define the word. They note starting in the XX Century, they defined “urban” as “over 2,500.” Starting in 1950, they defined “urbanized area” as over 50,000 (outside urbanised areas, the definition of “urban” remained 2,500). In 2000, they defined three groups (“urbanized area” as over 50,000, “urban cluster” as 2,500-50,000, and “urban area” as at least 2,500). In the 2010 Census, they included “land use” as part of the criteria for “urban area” (for example, parking lots or airports are part of urban areas but have very low population density, so they are now excluded).

My mother has a neighbour in her apartment house who once told her he was from a small town. She asked how small, he said 250,000. He had no concept of how anyone could live in a place where she (and I) grew up, with 192 people.

Our big town is Scottsbluff (sixty miles away, 11,000, the biggest town in the Panhandle), followed by Sidney (sixty miles away, 6,100).

My own county has about 5,000 people with three incorporated municipalities (1,100, 800, 93)

Hopefully he gets shunned and the model is a complete business failure, or else we’re going to see a lot more of this shit.

Not that any such thing is possible.

If God forbid, Trump gets back into office, he will likely have a GOP majority in the Senate to serve as his lapdogs.

Senate Republicans would piddle on the floor submissively, then obey, if Trump told them to end the filibuster to get the US out of NATO for Putin’s benefit.

Huckabee (like all conservatives) is lying. He doesn’t think it’s a virtue if Democrats cover up crimes by one of their own. He does thinks it’s a virtue for Republicans to cover up crimes by one of their own.

“Go Team (R)” is the least offensive of the GOP apologetics precisely because it doesn’t insult anyone’s intelligence by pretending Republicans have principles.
