Seems to me that people who use the term Cancel Culture around comedy are upset they cannot tell jokes that denigrate and insult and punch down. They want to be able to insult women and minorities and immigrants and LGBTQ people, basically anyone who is not them, with immunity.
And yet those same people who scream cancel culture don’t say a peep about the book burners removing positive Black and Brown and LGBTQ materials from the library. They want to remove anything where the white or straight or conservative or christian or male is not the hero of the narrative. People butthurt about Cancel Culture are not posting their outrage of the “Don’t Say Gay” bills.

A jury acquitted the Malheur terrorists despite the fact they brandished guns, trashed the place, and caused $2 million of damage to federal property. You probably couldn’t get a unanimous verdict against Trump if he stood in the street and shot somebody, either, because a substantial number of Americans think political violence is just fine, particularly when it’s directed against Democrats, people of color, LGBQT, immigrants, Muslims, Jews, abortion providers, peaceful BLM demonstrators, and … cops (“KILL HIM WITH HIS OWN GUN!”).

Australian election polls show the opposition parties ahead in both primary and the important Two Party Preferred metrics. I don’t trust them, Australia’s voting system is complicated. Australia uses Ranked Choice Voting but goes further than advocates in the US push. Advocates here allow for empowering the individual voter, if you want to rank only one candidate, ok. In Australia, you have to rank all the candidates, and parties issue how to vote cards to their voters, and Labor, Liberals, and Nationals maKe preference deals with minor parties. Current polls don’t take that into account.
It was preferences from One Nation(Which the Liberals didn’t want) and United Australia that saved the Liberals in 2019.
Also, I hope COVID doesn’t ruin an Australian tradition. Since voting is compulsory, it makes for good charity fundraisers at polling places. The term Democracy Sausage.

At some point, sooner rather than later, MAGAts are going to find their “groomer” kill shot. Something appalling and outrageous that you won’t be able to refute on the face of it.
But count on it. It will be wrong.
Somewhere, buried in the granular detail will be a fatal lie that doesn’t emerge for weeks. It always does.
Remember the Republican Senate report about LAPTOP that was rushed out into the world in the closing weeks of the 2020 election? Only months later we learned that they had all the nitpicky details about “irrelevant” stuff like the names of the companies or the dollar amounts completely wrong? And then some more months later we learn that the data they were relying upon was 92% corrupted and tampered with.
Whatever the fuck they call it, “Don’t say Gay”, “Parental Rights”, it’s just a front for anti-LGBTQ bigotry. And it’s all intended to both project and distract from the underlying, inescapable fact that “conservative”, “Xtian”, cis-gendered old white men are the single greatest manifest danger to children everywhere. Always have been. If wealthy old white men aren’t trafficking in adolescents to jerk them off wearing rubber gloves, or pouring drugs into them via their Venmos and ear fucking them in teen orgies, they are cornering them in the wrestling “Gym” showers to shove their fingers inside them. These are the people who nominated Trump, elected Trump, and then rioted and launched a terror attack on the Congress when he lost. And Trump is the “family values” Republican who has been leering at and discussing his daughter’s sexuality and sexual capabilities since she was in middle school. And they are fine with that.

@24 You’re assuming making money the capitalist way requires “skills.” Working for a living requires skills, but a capitalist leech like you or me can sit on his ass, do nothing, know nothing, and not even sign the dividend checks. All you need is automatic deposit.
I don’t recall ever claiming to have “investment skills.” There’s no such thing anyway, and anyone who claims they can predict the market is a liar. Just yesterday I reminded HA readers that my stocks are going up while the indexes are going down because of blind, dumb, random luck. For example, how did I know Putin would invade Ukraine when I bought my defense stocks? I didn’t. It’s just an accident that Lockheed is now worth 5 times what I paid for it. It’s not totally accidental that my basis yield on that stock is 13.2%, but at best that was just educated guessing on my part when I bought the stock, based on the company’s past record of steady dividend increases.

In May of 2015 David Washington suffered a stroke while driving in Fredricksburg VA. His car struck a parked car and a street sign before coming to a stop at a median. He remained trapped in his car incapacitated while surrounding motorists ignored his groans and pleas for assistance and dialed 911. Police responded to the scene with weapons deployed, tasered Mr. Washington repeatedly, and emptied an OC canister into his face before they physically dragged him from the vehicle and threw him face down on the pavement next to it. They applied multiple pain compliance techniques while placing him in handcuffs face down and they neglected to secure his vehicle. As they were standing back to admire their work his vehicle rolled forward and crushed the bones in his foot.
Oh. Did I mention that Mr. Washington is not white?
https://youtu.be/YVqhMCBPq_E
For two years Fredricksburg police denied fault for Mr. Washington’s injuries and fought to have his case dismissed for over a year while he struggled with the debilitating injuries, loss of job, and no insurance coverage. Without access to the treatment and assistance he desperately needed to survive and faced with massive hospital and rehab bills, Mr. Washington was forced to accept a low dollar confidential settlement in 2017.

I wonder if this is projection about how you were in as a doctor?
Were you afraid the Janitors and medical receptionists were considered as good as you were? It would explain how vicious you are to people you think are less than you, they threaten you.

Summary of Responses to Homeless Encampments
It seems sensible and doesn’t agree with either liberal or conservative dogma. But it will cost money so it won’t happen. Conservative christians HATE spending money on people that are not them. They would rather punish without doing of the positive actions.

Safe, “not a criminal matter”, and none of Texas’ goddamn business.
We are still waiting to confirm if Ms. Herrera had ever worked as a maintenance engineer or had any interest in railroading.
Shocking to find out within minutes of his fucking the dog that Degen’s model case for Texas is pinned on a poor Latina who apparently obtained a medication abortion, got ratted out by a white nursing assistant, arrested by ignorant, overzealous authoritarian cops with delusions of grandeur for a crime that did not exist and could not be prosecuted. Hospital gets sued. City gets sued. Nurse too I hope. Plenty of defendants with deep pockets. Well played. Just the media circus we might have expected. Should poll really well.
Could Degen wait? Nope.

How does the risk of catastrophic urban fire and injury in Seattle in the first 13 weeks of the year compare to the risk in the 1.3 weeks surrounding EEEN-DEE-PEN-DUNCE Day?
Asking for a Seattle cop who suffered third degree burns from his own homemade “firework” (and then attempted to file a duty-related claim).
It sure is heartwarming to see SPD and SFD working together like this.

It does serve cop dogma however. Which maybe should not surprise.
A fully funded housing first approach combined with treatment and support services obviates nearly every other listed response which rely on increasing policing in our communities. It’s nice that the study mentions treatment, support, and housing. Two out of twenty six is not great. Especially when the other 24 don’t work and/or produce the kind of apocalyptic horror-scape police love to justify bigger budgets and more aggressive and violent public engagement. Let’s face it, Goldy’s kids and YLB’s kids are probably at greater risk of being injured by a roid-raging, unaccountable cop policing a Sounders game.

Arson destroying some of the last Ringling Bros coaches. NCDoT was going to restore them for use on the Piedmont. Unfortunately that fell through when they were able to finally jump at the chance to purchase modern equipment for the state-supported service. They had some of the last rail cars purchased by a private railroad in the 20th Century, dating to 1964-65.

State supported services, rolling stock is purchased by the state, although Siemens has the market share with the FRA Compliance issues. Last I heard, the reason the Wisconsin TALGO purchase fell through, was Washington state walked away from the table, as they would be a short term solutions as Amtrak promised delivery priority if WSDoT joined the current multi-state order. Also, the maintenance contract was up for renewal, and TALGO and Washington couldn’t agree on any short-term extension. The Wisconsin trains are headed for Nigeria.

And only a measly $250k in disbursements to federal campaigns. Very sad trombones.
And also, of course, he’s running.

Interesting that I’m France, the overseas departments vote first. The first precincts to open are usually Saint Pierre and Miquelon, France’s last foothold in Canada. Consisting of two islands off Newfoundland. Almost became a thorn in the side of Allied operations against U-Boats. Saw a story that the Alliies(UK and USA) were planning an invasion, but De Gaulle beat them too it.
During Prohibition, it was a major smuggling hub of illicit Canadian alchohol bound for the Eastern Seaboard.

The greedy racist incel will likely now lie about Bill Clinton rape accusations to do some pointless whataboutism. Maybe they didn’t happen, maybe Bill is really good at avoiding charges. But they have not been legally proven, so he still has deniablity, unlike the endless republican sex crime convictions.

“Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas’ wife floated an outlandish conspiracy that members of the ‘Biden crime family’ and ‘ballot fraud co-conspirators’ were being sent to barges off of Guantánamo Bay to face military trials for sedition in newly-uncovered text messages with former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.”

Ukraine has now captured a few Russian Orlan-10 UAVs* and done some engineering analysis.
The Orlan is produced the Special Technology Center in St. Petersburg at a cost of $120,000 each.
The captured units now reveal that the UAV features a Cox RC model alcohol engine with a soda bottle fuel tank, an expanded poly styrene hull, and a “sensor array” consisting of a Cannon DSLR purchased on Amazon and held in place with a velcro strap.
For $120,000.
As with Republicans here in the United States, with Putin and his cronies it’s all about the grift. And this is the kind of “advanced defense system” we can expect if Republicans succeed in returning Donald Trump to White House.
*The “captured” units simply ran out of fuel and fell to earth.
