  1. Louisiana bars health dept. from promoting flu, COVID, mpox vaccines: Report - Ars Technica
  2. Are we still forgetting August of 2021?
  3. It's gaining steam on twitter like nobody's business. If anybody is competing with Musk in terms of trying to draw attention, all they have to do is let Trump know this stuff is floating around twitter without Leon doing anything about it.
  4. Ehh, these kinds of people always believe they are the toughest/smartest in the room. The fact is that with all of his begging/cajoling, Trump primarily stuck with this Truth.social platform even when Musk would clearly have bought it out and paid him off handsomely. Trump was "harmed" by twitter once when they banned him and he's not going to allow that to happen again, so when he returned last year, it wasn't nearly like it was before he was banned, and it's still not like it was even today. Trump is now about to be in office and doesn't have much use for Leon, and he gets real pissy when people talk about him being the puppets of others. I will be surprised if Leon is still around a few months from now.
  5. Meanwhile, in California, squirrels are feeding on other rodents. https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/18/science/california-squirrels-carnivorous-eating-voles/index.html
  6. I didn’t have my glasses on and I read that as “horse penis”
  7. What about guard rails for keeping the flat earthers from falling off the edge? We can have them contribute to a fund and we’ll send them photos of guardrails strategically photographed on cliffs to make it look like there is nothing beyond. Or Photoshopped. Also, we could assemble bundles of cheap ropes and harness gear and label it something about advanced gear for looking over the edge or something .
  8. Naval Combat World War II City Builder Economy Immersive Sim Massively Multiplayer
  9. For now, if Trump gets wind of the “President Musk” stuff, Musk will be booted out.
  10. I was thinking of an instrument to measure how much land is below the flat earthers’ properties. Your’s would involve less upfront expense.
  11. It's like when you're watching Kate and Allie and Kelsey Grammer or Ben Stiller or William H. Macy pop up.
  12. Amen. When I heard the nuts talking about Oprah Winfrey and Tom Hanks were trafficking and draining children of their adrenochrome to "stay young" all the while Oprah and Tom look their age, I just don't know how to dream up something that breathtakingly stupid. But the people with the balls to actually try and push that kind of stuff made plenty of money. Of course, you don't have to be as insane with the flat earth stuff, but like the Apollo deniers, the flat earth field is mature and saturated with grifters, and so you have to come up with something original enough that nobody else has thought of it. Which is where shit like the Oprah and Tom Hanks stuff comes in. That's some originality. Hats off to the 4channers/8channers who pulled that off. My kids are expecting a trip to Disney World within the next year, along with some other trips. I would love to come up with a conspiracy theory that will fund any and all trips like that, but not something that will get me hauled into court for defamation. I should see how the hollow Earth folks are doing...
  13. Oh fuck, you're saying Santa may have to run down the nearest Target or Wally-World?
  14. It doesn’t have to go there - the fact is that historically, pullouts usually don’t go very well, whether it be Vietnam (for us or the French), Afghanistan for the Russians (or Brits or us), various conflicts in Africa (US, Brits, French, the Belgians, although the French seemed to have done it the best in Africa), or some places in South America, or Susan Hofstetter in Galveston in 1994 when her husband came home from work early. Had I studied French military history in Africa, I might have affected a better withdrawal in that last incident, and not left such a lasting memory on her husband, her kids, or the Galveston County Sheriff’s Department.
  15. The grifting seems to be strong with the Flat Earthers and we need to partake of this.
  16. If you had a game where those two fought one another, I know which one I’m putting money on.
  17. Thought it was about Paris Hilton.
  18. Nope. If you want to kill somebody without getting caught, get them drunk/drugged, and dump them on train tracks near a small town. You can be miles away when it happens.
  19. We'll see if it rivals Hitler's Hemorrhoids or even Tokio Jokio where Bugs Bunny shoved a Samurai sword up Hirohito's ass. I may have imagined those...
  20. I thought Cavill's Superman was fine, it was just the fuckery going on at WB/DC that was the problem. They wanted to spin up their own cinematic universe without putting the time into world building like the MCU did. Thankfully for them, even if the Arrowverse TV shows and the Snyderverse movies aren't a part of this, a lot more people are now familiar with these characters so they can arguably skip a lot of origin stories. Given the current leadership and what they've done with their channels and animation divisions, I'm a bit concerned that unless this makes a bazillion dollars (it should) that Gunn will find himself micromanaged by the Powers That Be to hell and back with future projects. Maybe they realize that this is their last chance and are willing to let Gunn swing for the fences, but I still see them fucking over some of the things that made WB what it is. Fuck it, why not, it's a bit of a flex on Gunn's part but i'llallowit.gif
  21. A24 normally makes great trailers
  22. God bless twitter for popping up an ad for this keychain immediately after the video.
  23. Are we gonna talk about the first confirmed severe case in the US? Copy these pages, as they will probably be deleted later in January. CDC Confirms First Severe Case of H5N1 Bird Flu in the United States | CDC Newsroom Thankfully and surprisingly, it wasn't in Texas, it was in *checks notes* Louisiana. The best way to prevent H5 bird flu is to avoid exposure whenever possible. Infected birds shed avian influenza A viruses in their saliva, mucous, and feces. Other infected animals may shed avian influenza A viruses in respiratory secretions and other bodily fluids (e.g., in unpasteurized cow milk or 'raw milk'). As a general precaution, whenever possible, people should avoid contact with sick or dead animals, in particular wild birds, and poultry. For individuals with direct/close contact with wild birds or sick or dead poultry or other animals, wear recommended personal protective equipment (PPE). Wild birds can be infected with avian influenza A viruses even if they don't look sick. Do not touch surfaces or materials (e.g., animal litter or bedding material) contaminated with saliva, mucous, or animal feces from wild or domestic birds or other animals with confirmed or suspected avian influenza A virus infection. For more information on H5 bird flu in the U.S. and CDC's response, including regularly updated case counts, visit the H5 Bird Flu: Current Situation page.
  24. Yeah, those 50-somethings that were being told how to load a Kalashnikov were probably not bankers or analysts or computer programmers from Moscow.
