There’s a reason you are called Shortbus. Nice to see you owning it.
Schroeder played a tiny piano on Peanuts. Erwin Schödinger was an Austrian physicist who in 1935 in a letter to Albert Einsten proposed a thought experiment involving a cat in a box whose life was dependent on the state of a subatomic particle as a way of illustrating seeming contradictions at the heart of the Copenhagen interpretation.
If you’re really interested let me recommend books by John Gribbin. No math required (well, not much really). But logic mandatory.

Certainly one big similarity lies in the way your party nominee continues to keep the stories of sexual deviancy alive while simultaneously creating new ones.

Lisa Page took down Andrew McCabe, and she didn’t even have to fuck him to do it.
Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe was fired last month for committing three violations of the bureau’s ethics code, an investigative source told Fox News on Thursday.
The violations initially were uncovered by the Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General and confirmed by the FBI’s Office of Professional Responsibility. They included lack of candor under oath, lack of candor when not under oath, and the improper disclosure of non-public information to the media about the FBI investigation into the Clinton Foundation.
The violations stemmed from McCabe’s response to an October 2016 Wall Street Journal report about sizeable campaign donations from Democrats to McCabe’s wife, Jill, during her campaign for the Virginia State Senate. The investigation found that McCabe instructed FBI lawyer Lisa Page and FBI public affairs chief Michael Kortan to work with the Journal’s reporter to set the record straight.

de Blasio employs a gang-banger.
A $90,000-per-year director with Mayor de Blasio’s Office of Criminal Justice was arrested along with two men Saturday night in Queens after a loaded gun was found in their car — double-parked just blocks away from the scene of an earlier shooting, police said.
…
The gun seized from the Infiniti carries an eight-round clip, but only had three rounds in it when it was found, sources said.
The officers were scanning the area for suspicious activity after the NYPD’s ShotSpotter system detected five gunshots on nearby 109th Avenue around 10 p.m., authorities said.
Surveillance video culled from the scene of the 109th Avenue shooting shows the muzzle flashes of five shots fired from a car.

Several injured in human-smuggling crash on I-8 near Campo
A woman who was driving behind the Ford F-250 in the fast lane told investigators that the two-axle, four-horse trailer being hauled by the pickup began to fishtail, according to the California Highway Patrol. The pickup driver was unable to maintain control and drifted off the freeway. The trailer then separated from the truck and tipped onto its right side, said CHP Officer Travis Garrow.
Several people scrambled from the trailer and many ran away. No horses were inside.

Why are Millennials running from religion? Blame hypocrisy
White evangelicals embrace scandal-plagued Trump. Black churches enable fakes. Why should we embrace this?
https://www.salon.com/2018/04/08/why-are-millennials-running-from-religion-blame-hypocrisy/
Millennials are definitely taking note, and continue to abandon the church. A 2015 Pew Research Center study found 35 percent of millennials identify their religion as “none” — that’s twice the percentage of Boomers. If Christian hypocrisy isn’t addressed, organized religion won’t last.
I got taken to a mega church at Easter. It had three campuses and three services on that Sunday. The preacher showed up by helicopter. It was fascinating. Lots of singing, a killer light show, thumping sound system and finally a strongly uplifting message. At the end, the preacher told us to give deeply so he could afford heat, light and another church and to shun all churches but his.
Which reminds me…
Megachurches Are Turning Into MAGA-churches

As West Fears the Rise of Autocrats, Hungary Shows What’s Possible
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/10/world/europe/hungary-orban-democracy-far-right.html
Mr. Orban is emblematic of a strongman age. He has courted President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia and praised President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey. In 2016, he became the first Western leader to endorse the Republican presidential nominee, Donald J. Trump. Although Mr. Orban lacks the global profile of those leaders, what he is doing in Europe is seen as part of a broader decline of democracy in the world.
The Most Dangerous Man in the European Union
https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2018/04/viktor-orban-hungary/557246/
But over the past eight years, Orbán has pioneered a new model of what some Hungarian scholars describe as a “half democracy in decline” or a “soft autocracy,” merging crony capitalism with right-wing rhetoric. On the Corruption Perception Index compiled by Transparency International and released this February, Hungary is ranked as the second most corrupt EU country after Bulgaria. By gerrymandering the electoral system, subjugating the free press, and curbing the judiciary, Hungary has also achieved the dubious distinction of being named by Freedom House the “least democratic country” among the EU’s 28 members.

GOP pollster foresees November bloodbath …
“’I think the Republicans are in deep trouble in the House and the Senate as well,’ Republican pollster Frank Luntz said Sunday on Fox News. ‘If the election were held today, frankly, I think Republicans would lose both.’”

… however, Democrats must not become complacent.
Roger Rabbit spews:
“The Federal Bureau of Investigation on Monday raided the offices of U.S. President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen, The New York Times reported. …
“Stephen Ryan, Cohen’s lawyer, confirmed that a raid had taken place … [and] said in his statement that Cohen has cooperated with authorities and turned over thousands of documents to congressional investigators for their own probes into Moscow’s alleged efforts to influence the U.S. election.”

Roger Rabbit Commentary: Looks like Mueller wants to see that stuff, too. After all, a lawyer willing to buy the silence of a porn actress might be willing to buy an election from the Russians, too.

82,
Tells me there’s another memo just like this one.
Through all of last year and the beginning of this year the received wisdom among the PornHub Party faithful was that any forays by Mueller into criminal shenanigans beyond what the idiot hairdos at FOX News insisted had to be this made up thing called “collusion” would be “out of bounds” and therefor nothing to worry about. A few of us pointed out that the statute authorizing and describing the method for the appointment of a Special Prosecutor a) does not require that the specific matter to be investigated must be included in the appointment order and b) specifically allows for the specific matter to be kept secret from the general public (and the Congress).
Rosenstein has probably expanded the investigation well beyond whatever “collusion” is supposed to mean. Although, Cohen certainly touches on the issues of email hacks and election tampering, his schemes have had much more to do with opening up Trump business in Russian real estate development. A few very stupid people in the administration may still believe that the bribes they paid to get a petroleum concession 12 years ago, or the illegal meeting they facilitated between a foreign espionage agent and a top appointee are still safely off the table. But those probably number fewer than a half dozen. The rest have lawyers on speed dial and have started moving banker boxes to their sister’s storage locker in Passaic. The footrace phase of the investigation has begun.
Who’ll be the “fixer” when the “fixer” is wearing an ankle monitor?
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
For anyone wondering perhaps how Roypublican President Very Serious PornHub reacted to the news that his “fixer” had his offices, homes, and hotel rooms searched I give you…
this.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
Uday and Ousay asked Panamanian Pres. Juan Carlos Varela to intervene on their behalf in a dispute in Panama’s courts over their hotel. They threatened diplomatic and trade repercussions if they didn’t get the outcome they wanted.

That the boys would play that card is not very surprising (even if it may be illegal) and probably to be expected. I’m sure most Roypublicans assume that this is just how things are done when white men are calling the shots, etc. No biggee.
What I think is interesting is that Panama told them to get bent. In context that’s kind of amazing, really. Had the whole thing been done in a more “diplomatic” fashion and using carrots as well as sticks, at least in previous administrations the result would probably have been different. But with Tillerson being ushered out, surrounded by a bunch of consultants while the career diplomatic and trade reps are sprinting for the doors, there are no carrots. And damn few sticks either.
This is collateral damage from the administration’s and the PornHub Party’s new attitude about trade and diplomacy. Could be the market corrections were more rational than first impressions suggest.

I really don’t think it was the white supremacists that did him in, I really think it was his religious cult that finally had enough of his hypocritical bullshit, unbridled hate-speech, and non-adherence to the religious rules. After all, “Vengeance is mine saith the lord.”
His cult probably took his keyboard and Internet connection and gave him a T1 line straight to his god.
The white supremacists probably have a need for a token to do their biding, however the religious zealots show no such compassion for those that flaunt the rules.

@95 The babbling cornhole once babbled here at HA about what a “secure” network is like.. It was if the butthole was bragging about its own design of
KULT Dot Net…
Its kult’s own private network where kult bidness is exclusively conducted from the prying eyes of google, apple, etc. – in other words “the world”…
Me thinks a better name for that would be
KULT DA? NYET!!!
After all landing Vlad Putin would be that kult’s finest moment.. We all know Vlad is the richest which is why maga-debtor drumpf paints its orange face brown to make bank with the murderous fascist freak. 10 percent of Vlad’s hoarde??? Ooooh that’d put the kult on top.
Good luck with that kult freaks..
