But Slit Slam is still on since it’s an in-person (hehe) event, right?  I think it’s in Freeport this year, and there’s a connected redfish charter. 

Adds meaning to "got one in the slot."

This is such unbridled horseshit. I live in fucking California, and I'm not sure if I've ever seen a Fuck Trump shirt/flag/bumper sticker/whatever in person. I can't go a day without seeing Let's Go B

This was my first thought as well. Younger brother is beaten down by decades of older brother’s  constant berating of others. His reward for answering the officer’s question is getting arrested. I have empathy for this guy.

I have experience in this situation. It’s one of the key reasons I moved away after college.

We do miss you at thanksgiving

Good’n you

Oh, not so bad.  Can't complain.  

Typical Lobo thread-derail.  About a month ago, I don't know why.  But I started doing this exchange with my 5yo.  And I honestly don't remember how it all started but she actually puts a little Northwoods/Canadian mustard on the accent.  I guess she's heard some of my relatives from up that way from zoom/facetime calls with that accent but she just nails it.  So she's asking me where the whole Wayne/McMurray thing comes from and I pull up one of the clips and we're cracking up.  I get up to get some water or whatever, and didn't realize the youtube thing moves into that outtakes scene where Wayne is saying all those graphic quotes to his girlfriend about different hashtags McMurray has had for his guy trips over the years (slitslambingbang'07).  Wife, who in all fairness to her does not like Trump but is constantly apologetic about him because most of her extended family worships him, is mortified but I shut off the clip in time before it got weird.  And she's lecturing me about "screen time" inappropriateness.  And I just had to laugh, like "Your deeply devout Roman Catholic parents who consider everything anybody does is a mortal sin whom worship at the altar of Trump and everything he's done to degrade women and faith and marriage and decency towards females is just the price of doing business because he was chosen by Jesus in their eyes.  But McMurray's #GashBash2014 is just beyond the pale?  Got it."

Britt just introduced legislation to create a govt website, pregnancy.gov, to provide women with information regarding their pregnancy. On the face of it, that is a great idea. Of course the entire point of this site is to shame women to not get abortions, up to and including having govt employees/contractors call any pregnant woman who mistakenly provides her contact information. 

the site will list all “pregnancy crisis” centers who exist to talk women out of pregnancies, but will expressly reject any center that provides abortion or even abortion information.

Oh I bet it's far more nefarious.   It probably requires registration and data entry regarding whether your pregnant, due date, socio-economic data, etc.  They want to track all of that.

I would have taken any excuse to walk out of every graduation I’ve ever been in or attended. Most boring things ever. 

Yup.  I walked for undergrad because my Dad was a professor at that school and he got to hand me my diploma, but I told him & Mom not to bother with UT graduation, I wouldn't be there.

Wife just got her Masters from Purdue and good god damn I had forgotten how fucking boring commencements are.
 

My main wish was that there was some type of snipers nest to pick off any miserable cunt yelling dumb shit after their graduates name is called, to the point that it interrupts/covers up the next persons name being read.  
 

They did have a Muslim clergy dude (cleric?) do the nondenominational benediction/etc so I enjoyed that there were many pearls clutched by some ignorant xian fuckers who believe that to be an affront of some type.

My favorite prof in undergrad did his PhD at Purdue.  I remember him asking me what my plans were for grad school -- "well, I'm down to Purdue, Texas, Penn State and NC State".

This guy was a nerd's nerd.  He looked me right in the eye and said "I know you, I know you enjoy music and nightlife and whatnot.  Do NOT under any circumstance go to Purdue."

The rough plan for the end of America:
—Radicalize, merge & mobilize QAnon+/MAGA/Christian Nationalists into a single enraged death cult.
—Focus on Mike Flynn as the “General” & Trump as a martyr.
—Inspire or create “black swans” to terrify the population, up to & including assassinations.
—Push people to only vote on Election Day “if there is an election.”
—Cause chaos leading up to & during the entire election process.
—Discredit the voting system, especially mail-in ballots, by any means necessary.
—Infiltrate election committees.
—Infiltrate State legislatures.
—Infiltrate counties and precincts.
—Deploy “poll watchers” and white nationalists to intimidate people and manufacture “evidence” of fraud.
—Discredit electoral votes in Biden states using Big Lie 2.0 psyops, propaganda and active measures.
—Siphon off Biden’s vote with RFK Jr. & Cornel West.
—The primary goal is to force the total electoral vote count of the winner to under 270, which would cause a constitutional crisis by throwing the vote to the House, which would almost certainly hand the presidency to the Republicans, regardless of the vote count.
—If “constitutional” means fail to steal the election for Trump, there will be a violent national insurrection before the inauguration.
—Flynn, Trump and his allies will not go quietly, they will activate their large, radicalized death cult to execute another J6, except from coast to coast.
—A significant part of law enforcement will not stop this, and some will actually help.
—Putin will bring his entire array of assets to bear on helping ensure there will never be another peaceful transfer of power.

This is my favorite.  By all means, yes. Continue to push this to R voters. Please. 

Only problem is certain districts will be open and fully staffed. Others will have malfunctioning machines, low on ballots,  and one person working.

John David McEntee II (born May 9, 1990) is an American political advisor who served in the Trump administration. He has been a Trump loyalist during and after the Trump presidency. He began as a body man and personal aide to the president but was dismissed by White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly in March 2018 after failing a security clearance background check, which discovered he was under investigation by the Department of Homeland Security due to debt-related issues from gambling.

After Kelly was dismissed in December 2018, Donald Trump rehired McEntee and named him Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office in February 2020. After leaving the White House, McEntee founded The Right Stuff, a dating app for conservatives, which he led as CEO.

Dumbest fucking people on the planet. This has to be a fucking joke.

Fuck you if you enable these idiots by voting for them.

Minnesota Republicans introduce legislation inspired by the chemtrails conspiracy theory

 

Republicans in the Legislature, including Senate assistant minority leader Justin Eichorn, R-Grand Rapids, have introduced legislation (HF4687/SF4630) inspired by the “chemtrails” conspiracy theory. 

The bill contains a mishmash of conspiratorial pseudoscience, including references to made-up phenomena like “xenobiotic electromagnetism and fields,” with just enough parroting of actual science to give it a veneer of credibility. 

It requires county sheriffs to investigate citizen complaints of “polluting atmospheric activity,” and grants the governor the authority to call up the National Guard and ground any aircraft suspected of spreading pollutants.

To professionals who study and understand atmospheric science, the legislation bears all the hallmarks of the “chemtrails” conspiracy theory, which posits that airplane exhaust is deliberately laced with harmful chemicals for various nefarious purposes, including forced sterilization and mind control.

“Because the text of this bill focuses so much on electromagnetic radiation, you can tell that it is coming from the community of people concerned with chemtrails,” said Holly Buck, who studies geoengineering at the University at Buffalo in New York.

Lawmakers in at least seven other states have introduced similar bills recently. While most have stalled in committee, a Tennessee bill recently sailed through the GOP-controlled House and Senate and awaits a signature or veto by the Republican governor there.

Sponsors in some of those states have explicitly referenced the chemtrails conspiracy in discussing the legislation.

“If you look at a thousand planes, you won’t see one (chemtrail). But then all of a sudden you see one,” the author of the Tennessee Senate bill told the Tennessee Lookout last month. “So we’re just asking the question: Are they putting anything in the air that could be toxic?”

The Minnesota House version of the bill was authored by GOP Rep. Jeff Dotseth of Kettle River and co-sponsored by Reps. Pam Altendorf of Red Wing, Dawn Gillman of Dassel and Krista Knudson of Lake Shore.

The Senate version was authored by GOP Sen. Eric Lucero of Saint Michael and co-sponsored by Sens. Glenn Gruenhagen of Glencoe, Bruce Anderson of Buffalo, Nathan Wesenberg of Little Falls and Eichorn, the assistant minority leader.

Some of the language in the bill is nonsensical.

“I don’t think xenobiotic electromagnetism and fields is a thing — it doesn’t even make sense,” Buck said.

The lead authors of both chambers’ bills did not respond to a request to define “xenobiotic electromagnetism,” or to provide a real-world example of it.

Among other things, the legislation seeks to ban “weather-engineering, cloud-seeding, stratospheric aerosol injection, or other atmospheric activity that is harmful to humans or the environment” as well as the emission of “xenobiotic agents” and “excessive electromagnetic radiation.”

It requires local law enforcement to “encourage” the public to monitor “polluting atmospheric activities” and report them to authorities. If any such report is made, county sheriffs and commissioners must follow up and investigate, “without limitation.”

It further instructs sheriffs and county commissioners to order the grounding of any aircraft suspected of engaging in “weather-engineering or other atmospheric experimentation that involves releasing xenobiotic agents or producing electromagnetic radiation at harmful levels.”

The bill also gives the governor the authority to call up the National Guard and ground any aircraft suspected of engaging in “prohibited activity.”

Taken at face value the legislation could ban all air traffic in the state, due to its apparent blanket prohibition on “polluting atmospheric activity” that is “harmful to humans or the environment.” Similarly worded legislation in other states has been shot down over concerns about the effects on agricultural operators, ethanol producers, radio and TV broadcasters, and other industries.

The bill has no chance of becoming law under a DFL trifecta and is highly unlikely to even receive a hearing. But the support of multiple Republican members, including a member of leadership, gives a sense of how the party might govern were it to return to power.

"You could look at the sky all day for a week, and it's clear blue skies.  And then all of the sudden, you see clouds.  So we're just asking the question -- who are these Vapor Creators, and why do they want to sap our manly essence?"

These are the dumbest people in the world.

And every person who votes Republican supports them.  They support this thinking.  They support an insane cult.  Never let them deny it, because if they deny it, they are lying.

I have a friend who really believes in this chemtrail shit. Acting like I'd never heard of it, I said "well that sounds pretty crazy to me. Are you sure about this?"  And he went into this whole five-minute discussion of the research that he's done etc ...   So, again acting innocent, I said "this seems hard to believe.  Has anybody just taken a plane up to one of these chemtrails, collected some of it, and had it analyzed? Because that seems like it wouldn't be too hard to do and it would put the whole thing to rest."    About five seconds of silence, followed by "I don't know. I don't think so. I'll check."  About a month later I asked and he said he'd researched it and couldn't find anybody who'd ever done that. I just said "Well, being as it couldn't be too hard to do, I reckon I'd want somebody to do that before I started to believe it."   I'm not sure, but I may have actually planted seeds of doubt in his mind.  The thing is, you can't argue with a conspiracy theorist. You just have to ask the simplest question you can in plain spoken, uncombative language that makes it sound like you have never heard of the conspiracy but ... Then you ask the question and let it simmer for a while.

^^^^Good stuff.

Now I would like to hear from a flat earther. How high do you have to get before you can see the entirety of the flat Earth? 
 

Which reminds me, yet again, how evangelicals (because flat earthers are most often evangelicals) love their neighbors by believing overwhelming numbers of their neighbors are part of a conspiracy against God.

Having known two of them, both of whom have flown overseas, if you start to question their beliefs and point out that they’ve flown tens of thousands of feet up, they will just babble aBout the windows being curved, or that we are “seeing what They want us to see” (apparently some display technology that consumers don’t yet have).  And if challenged to do their own research and build a balloon and go up themselves they get pissy.  

It’s mental illness and a need to be contrarian.
