Washington doesn’t have a mask mandate anymore. I see a lot of people on Twitter saying that Seattle people are still mostly masked up. I didn’t feel that, but Pike Place Market is my grocery store, and it’s tough to tell who is local, and who is a tourist. Other than that, I didn’t get out much during the weekend. I wish I saw more masks,in general, though.
I am wearing a mask as I write this, but it’s still required on public transportation. I will still wear it at work, but I don’t know how universal that will be.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
Happy Pi Day to all!
Interesting at a point like the one we are in right now to think about how J.D. Vance will survive his outspoken support for Putin’s bloody aggression in Europe.
Among other things I think it will cost him Trump’s endorsement (if Trump even gives one before the primary) and teach all the Trumpalo candidates an important lesson about the futility of crawling like servile dogs to kiss the orange sphincter.

It’s the low IQ. And the longer he keeps standing with Putin and his raging orange man-baby against American democracy, the lower it goes.

6,
And whereas Trump is a a devastating, ongoing liability to “conservatives” who cost them five states, four Senate seats, flipped the House, the Senate, and suburbia, Stacy Abrams is an ongoing valuable asset to liberals and Democrats, having demonstrated and proven the ground plan for recapturing a populous, diverse, and economically dynamic state like Georgia.
“Conservatives” have no answer to Stacy Abrams. Every three to six months they trot out a new scheme to divide and alienate voters. And it never has any staying power. Even the power of redistricting has crumbled into a desperate fight for self-preservation.
Glen Youngkin is a one-trick pony.
And his “trick” has already morphed into Q-playtriot rioting and bomb threats.
It looks like the low IQ dumbfuck traitor has been reduced to spewing insipid attacks on us. That, and his love for Putin, his raging orange man-baby and, of course, Tulsi.
10,
He can’t declare or he loses his ability to raise unlimited funds early.
Right now he’s living in magic grifter candyland.
And a big part of that magic includes amassing an unmatchable war chest, building brand loyalty with small dollar mouth breathers like Degen and locking them into his grift ecosystem, and securing enough of the large dollar donors.
He’s already nationwide and global. And he’s so far ahead of the nearest Republicans it’s a fucking joke. Just like last time the also-rans are all waiting helplessly in hopes that Trump fucks himself up somehow. Only now they must do so in an environment where it must be acknowledged that bragging to a busload of complete strangers about rape conquests, extorting foreign leaders for campaign assistance, loosing a violent pipe-bomb mob to overturn an election, or paying teen prostitutes to jerk him off wearing rubber gloves are not and will not be disqualifying.
Trump is untouchable. And Republicans themselves made him that way. There’s really only one thing he can’t do at this point: win a presidential general election. But nobody can stop him from trying.
And it’s all he cares about.
For a low IQ dumbfuck traitor, weakness is not supporting Putin and Russia.
In November, a record 92 million votes will be cast for Democrats. They will gain 46 House seats and 7 in the senate. And with that humiliating defeat, the low IQ dumbfuck traitor will still not admit to us that his supporting Russia instead of America was a low IQ dumbfuck idea.
Biden has deftly managed to pivot NATO, European Union, and unprecedented global unity out of Trump’s disastrous appeasement of Putin.
Voters see Biden avoiding a nuclear confrontation with the largest nuclear arsenal on earth, while simultaneously guiding Ukraine to what will hopefully be a stalemate that destroys PooTin.
Voters, NATO members, EU members, Ukrainians, and Russians now see that PooTin is weak.
And they see Trump preoccupied with fiercely nursing grievances over long past defeats and against his own party.
@17 “Trump is untouchable. And Republicans themselves made him that way. There’s really only one thing he can’t do at this point: win a presidential general election. “
Yes, I understand why he hasn’t declared he is running due to the money issues. Yet another reason to change our election/money laws.
I agree with your assessment about Trump. The thing is, if Trump would just be happy with being a “king-maker” he would be set for life in his current role. It wasn’t him that really gave us Dr. Dumbfuck’s Trinity of SCOUTS judges, it was McConnell. Trump’s ego won’t let him stay in the wings as a king-maker, no, he has to be king, and that will ultimately be his downfall.
Here is to DeathSantis for becoming Marcus Junius Brutus!

“…the low IQ dumbfuck traitor will still not admit to us that his supporting Russia instead of America was a low IQ dumbfuck idea.”
That’s not how the mind of the degenerate works.
When you and I and other healthy individuals experience defeat and loss we process it as a form of punishment – either the removal of a positive stimulus or the introduction of a negative stimulus. We experience it for what it is, and we look for opportunities to learn from it, by looking for ways to avoid the punishment. We associate the punishment with the operant behavior that elicited it to begin with. And we focus our learning on changing that behavior.
But the degenerate mind is unique with respect to mild forms of punishment within a narrow range of eliciting behaviors. If circumstances can be arranged to produce a powerful anticipation of reinforcement, rather than of punishment, then the degenerate will experience at least initially mild punishment as either mild reinforcement or neutrally. Behavior becomes compulsive over time and increasingly resistant to modification.
Degen is the tragic, trembling, rhesus monkey infant crawling back to and clinging desperately to the wire frame “mother” who feeds him, but also periodically electrocutes the fuck out of him.
@20 The correct thing to understand about Trump is that he wants to be a king, not a president.
@21 “Er, Putin caused that. Not Biden.”
Putin caused it, Biden did it, and you can’t tell the difference because you’re a dumbfuck.
@27 In other words, Bob is a motherless, in-vitro lab monkey. And you suspected it all along.
The way he relates to his horse has got to be some sick shit.
PooTin took the fifth largest military in the planet and fully committed it to invading the poorest nation in Europe with the 22nd largest military having a mere fraction of the resources and personnel. And after four months of border preparations and two and a half weeks in, he may be losing, but he sure isn’t winning. That’s what PooTin did. PooTin’s folly is so great, and his weakness so overwhelming, that having resorted to bombing maternity hospitals and dropping thermobaric munitions over civilian shelters, he is now turning to chemical and biological weapons agents.
Meanwhile the GOP’s loyalty and commitment to PooTin remains so overpowering that they still must defend and promote him.
A crucial element of Biden’s plan for success against PooTin includes the imperative that Ukraine, and European and NATO allies be seen as having defeated him. If PooTin’s aggression is defeated, and the U.S. is seen or credited with bringing that about, then PooTin survives intact and remains in power inside Russia.
Right now our incredibly not weak president is begging Venezuelan dictator Maduro for oil.
I guess tonguing the taint of an Ayatollah didn’t get him very far.

Not a lot here to disagree with. I don’t think Putin survives a loss to anyone after what he has put his nation through, but the part about Europe taking the lead and Biden providing under-the-radar support seems correct.
We are incredibly lucky that Republicans can only sit back and bitch right now.
If not, Ukraine would have fallen in days, Trump would be assigning Don Jr. to negotiate with PooTin for the recovery of U.S. air crew remains, PooTin would be expanding the conflict into Poland and Estonia and moving ballistic subs into position, and Zelensky would have been hunted down and killed by GRU hackers with Marco Robio’s most recently misplaced iPhone.
Thank God for President Joe Biden indeed.

Elections have consequences.
@ 35
Elections have consequences.
Ah, yes. Yes, indeed, they do.
The 2016 election made Steve crash and burn. He’s useless now. Has been for years.
Fuck two-faced, lying, treasonous Republicans.
Try disagreeing with that right now.
Degen just got done bitching about “weakness” and fucking airplanes.
The airplanes: the deal was not particularly wise to begin with. It wasn’t going to contribute much to Ukraine’s defenses. Biden was willing to go along so long as Poland delivered. But when Poland changed the deal without warning to transferring the aircraft to the U.S. and then having us deliver them to Ukraine it was dead. And that’s good. We can’t be in the lead. Not if we hope to achieve lasting improvements to European security.
Right now, Every Republican You Know is trying to figure out some way to be seen as taking the lead in “defending Ukraine” while somehow simultaneously sucking PooTin dick and giving away strategic and tactical advantages. It’s grotesque. And nine out of ten other presidents of either party would fall into the same trap.
Right now the pressure on Biden to turn this conflict in Europe to a political advantage at home is overwhelming. And the simplest and easiest way to do that would be to run out to the front of the parade, pushing other European leaders aside. He’s literally a better human being than that. It may cost us the mid terms. But it may gain us a secure, stable, and prosperous Europe into the rest of the century.
Never forget, not for one instant, that only weeks ago these shit stains were calling for an end to NATO.
“Conservatives” are dangerous idiots. They prove it every day.

Wife of Associate Justice Thomas who spent all of the past year falsely denying her involvement, finally today admitted that she took part in the events surrounding the Jan6 terror attack on the U.S. Capitol.
In attempting to explain her year of outright lying about her involvement, Associate Justice Thomas’ wife made the following statement in an interview with a radical, far-right, extremist media outlet:
“There are important and legitimate substantive questions about achieving goals like electoral integrity, racial equality, and political accountability that a democratic system like ours needs to be able to discuss and debate rationally in the political square using pipe bombs and fire extinguishers.”*

The key point Dumbfuck, is she has been lying about it for over a year. Something that is near and dear to your tiny heart.

5/ Hydrogen vehicles simply replace one fuel with another. It’s not much different than swapping leaded with unleaded. But due to the ubiquity of power lines, EVs create an entirely different—and more convenient—model. The market has decided. EVs have won. And for good reason.
Mar 11, 2022
that “the market has decided” and “EVs have won”. And yet the US Postal Service is gonna buy as many as 150,000 gasoline-powered replacement postal vehicles.
In order to make sure the “market decides” the way liberals have subsidized the market to decide, Democrats are gonna crawl up the UPSP rectum with a microscope. They don’t call it a “probe” for nothing.
House Dems seek probe of USPS plan for new mail truck fleet
Nothing says market forces like an implied ass-reaming from the government for expressing wrongthink.
The market is being forced into EVs. The government decided, not the markets.
@ 54
… she has been lying about it for over a year.
I’m apparently missing something. Please explain to me “the lie” she has reportedly told.
@55
Remind us who runs the Postal Service? Oh yeah, a Trump loyalist.
The wife of Associate Justice Thomas spent more than a year lying every single time she was asked about Jan 6.
For that entire year, whenever she was asked, and she lied in her response, nobody should have believed her. Because she was lying. She is a liar. It was a mistake to have believed her.
FOX news believed her. Newsmax believed her. OAN believed her CPAC believed her. But she was lying to them every single time. She even paid people to update and edit online accounts and her Wikipedia page to conceal that she was there that day and spread disinformation.
Now, suddenly, today Degen insists that we should believe her?
I don’t. She was there. She took part. Eyewitnesses put here there. Her name appeared on organizing documents for the event. We probably need to get to the bottom of that as soon as possible using independent investigative means to determine exactly what her involvement was. I’m not going to believe a single fucking word she has to say about where she was or what she was up to.
Because she’s a liar.
Just like Degen is a liar.
That’s good.

That having been said, I do look forward to experiencing the torque of an EV one-ton pickup truck sometime in the next few years. Very happy with our diesel 2500, tho. And fewer than 4,000 miles/year means we’ll never have to trade it in on something newer.

1. So we replace the injectors. If that happens.
2. Those miles are 80% with a towed trailer and horse. Most of the rest are round-trip with about 1400# of hay in the bed.
3. We make several 100+ mile trips per year with engine longevity in mind. It’s about that far from Seattle to south Whidbey if one takes Deception Pass rather than the ferry.

@ 62
Trump’s man DeJoy has his finger in the gas versus EV decision.
He also has a budget to work within. Congress didn’t pass $6B of USPS subsidy in the BBB. Meaning the USPS doesn’t have the money to pay Democrat donors who are heavily invested in heavily subsidized EV technology.
Hell, if I had budgeted $150,000 for a truck I could have bought anthing on the market. Instead we budgeted $80k for a diesel 3/4 ton truck and a trailer. We’re very happy with both, and we paid a little less than we had planned. Paid about $1,000 less sales tax by buying in Chehalis than we would have had we bought in Seattle. 8.2% rate there. Fuck you, Ed Mole.
@65
Good for you, you at least think ahead a little bit. Diesels need to be loaded and run in order to last.
Come to think of it, you wasted probably $8K getting the diesel option when the trucks typically have the nearly same towing capacity, for gas or diesel, for example, the Chev 2500HD
For as little as you tow, you wasted money on an diesel engine.
@ 69
We formerly towed with a Ford Expedition, Triton 5.4 V8 we bought at about 75k miles. The transmission lasted 100k miles but went. Still have that vehicle and love it, but we now only use it to tow a single-axle trailer. It’s happier that way.
We’re on a steep-ish hill. We went for the torque. We’re happy.

2015 RAM 2500 6.7 Cummins V6 torque 800 lb-ft

It’s real.
But that does not mean I don’t get to continue to mock his stupidity, his treason, and his consistent action against self-interest. But he’s truly poor, you guys. I mean no joke. That $30 is ruinous and I’ve been making fun of him for it.
However, he probably shouldn’t have made some of the shitty decisions he made in life that put him in this situation.

It’s ironic, isn’t it, that in a thread in which a libbie pushes EV over gasoline USPS vehicles to aid the environment (really, to aid other liberals), that same libbie pushes a higher-emitting gasoline-powered truck over an environmentally safer and higher MPG-earning diesel.

@ 76
That V6 means each cylinder is 1.1L volume. Boosts torque.
I read many people who miss the 5.9L Cummins and who say that engine had more power and will last far longer than the newer 6.7L Cummins. All of the environmental stuff – BluDEF, etc – reduces horsepower.
The 7 day positivity rate (COVID) has flatlined and no longer decreasing here in NYC, sitting at about 1.20%. The rate of the spread of the virus was also decreasing to about .75; but it is now increasing.

It also means it will rattle itself apart faster than the 5.9L

The DOJ is requesting that Proud Boy national leader Enrique Tarrio be held over for trial. And yesterday they filed a 21 page memorandum in support of that motion describing much more detail on how much dirt they have on him and why he is not safe in the community.
Part of the memorandum focuses on a meeting Tarrio attended in a DC parking garage with Oath Keepers leadership. Tarrio had been arrested the previous day for attempting to burn a church. A condition of his release on those charges was that he leave DC. Instead he violated those conditions, remained in DC and attended the meeting to reassure Oath Keepers that their operational plans for the following day remained secret. As you will recall, when the Proud Boys team set up their “National Chapter” MOSD (Ministry of Self Defense) to conduct violent electioneering operations right after the huge Republican losses in November, Tarrio put himself in charge of “marketing”.
Well guess what? Chicken Shit Enrique brought a “documentary crew” to the meeting. And they recorded it. “Marketing.”

@ 95, 96
You make the mistake of assuming I give a shit, Newt. We pay what we’re charged by the state when we renew our tabs, and we don’t give it a second thought. Five vehicles, four with 4WD, and two motorcycles. Three trailers. It costs what it costs – maybe $1,000-1,200/year for all of it. If there’s one fee that is different because of the size of the vehicle and not just because there’s no Sound Transit assessment, then I guess you’ve got me on that one.
Diesel fuel is cheaper here, IIRC, because of a tax that isn’t levied in Island County. Maybe I’ve got that wrong, too, and you can build yourself up by pointing out my error to me on that one, Big Guy.
We save a little money by buying diesel fuel from the Farm Supply for our farm implements, in Oak Harbor. There are two diesel pumps, one without the highway tax. I think that fuel is dyed to prevent avoidance of the tax by highway-use vehicles.
Double digits, bitches.
I guess the reason I didn’t think I was special the way Newt thinks he is special because his truck’s GVWR is > 6,000# is because I never gave it a thought.
But I just looked online, and each of our three 4WD vehicles has a GVWR > 6,000#.
This news to me, therefore, must make me three times as special as Newt.
And the RTA fee isn’t charged to our two passenger vehicles, either.
97,
Complains incessantly about higher fees and costs he never pays.
Then gets caught.
Then moves the goal post to “WhoCaresistan“.
Then ejects copypasta squid ink to cover his escape.
This is classic degenerate.
WRONG as fuck. But perceives it as a close call.
So #WINNING!
In the end, all we can do is point and laugh.
Hasn’t stopped trembling and white-knuckling $30/mo for weeks now.
Not a single day passes that it doesn’t complain.
It is crushed under this burden.
We must all try to understand and to offer some pity for the poor thing. True, this is a financial trap of its own making. A lifetime of poor, risky, and undoubtedly impulsive decisions made “without a thought” have brought it to this difficult passage. But I’m confident Degen can get through this somehow. I can only hope these words will ease its immense suffering.
@99
You give a shit because you bothered to look up your vehicles.
I know about the fee because I was surprised that my car was much more than my truck and wondered why. I also know the reason why there is a break at 6000 lbs, but won’t bother to tell you because you “don’t care”
You are a real piece of work Dumbfuck. You got caught and we all know it. All we can do is point and laugh.
I almost feel sorry for Mrs. Dumbfuck, she definitely married down. I pity the horse tho.
What a clown you are.
“US officials at a notorious CIA detention site in Afghanistan used a detainee as a living prop to teach interrogators torture techniques, newly declassified documents reveal, bouncing the man’s head off a wall until he was left with permanent brain damage.
“The shocking report, which dates back to 2008 but was unsealed Thursday, details the repeated torture of Ammar al-Baluchi, a current Guantanamo Bay captive and suspect in the 9/11 attacks, at the former CIA ‘black site’ Cobalt, north of Kabul.
“Interrogators at the site, known both as Cobalt and ‘the Salt Pit,’ went beyond the CIA’s guidelines in torturing Baluchi, the documents reveal, testing techniques and their effectiveness without the agency’s approval.”

Trumpers’ claims this CIA was behind the Capitol riot are starting to sound more credible. They know their friends better than we do.
@93 “Island County isn’t Sound Transit territory.”
It’s kayak transportation territory when the ferry breaks down.
@93 “The number of motorcycle fatalities seems high, tho.”
Gotta get donor organs somewhere.

Gotta get donor organs somewhere.
@97 “We pay what we’re charged by the state when we renew our tabs, and we don’t give it a second thought.”
I don’t pay anything. As a disabled veteran, I get free tags. But I don’t consider myself special in any way, I merely did my duty to my country, like 3 million other veterans of my generation.
@98 I hate to break this to you, but the Dow is up 600 points and WTI oil is down $7.47 today.

Really? Credible?
I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
“Who is this person? Why hasn’t he been charged?
That’s a very simple ask!”
He’s a 24-year-old St. Louis area resident with cognitive delays who paints his face red and jogs around the outside of Cardinal’s Stadium to show his team spirit, and who has now been forced into hiding by the conspiracy theory created by fools like Carlson. He hasn’t been charged because he is not believed to have committed any crimes on the day of the Republican terror attack on Congress.
I guess he went to the Capitol that day because he lives on SSI and disability and his time is his own. He had nothing better to do. He is obviously very starved for attention and companionship. And the rally at the White House must have looked like a good opportunity. He must also be a Trump supporter. But so is every single other cognitively delayed voter. No crime in that.
Let’s not add to his misery.
@100 “Complains incessantly about higher fees and costs he never pays.”
See, that’s the difference between him and me, I don’t complain about fees I don’t pay.
But he’s a Republican, and Republicans also constantly complain about taxes they don’t pay, so I guess kneejerk whining is just compulsive with them or something.
You don’t hear me whining about taxes I don’t pay. I do see Warren Buffett complain about taxes he doesn’t pay and thinks he should pay. Doctor Dumbfuck is no Warren Buffett.
@101 “We must all try to understand and to offer some pity for the poor thing.”
Why? What’s in it for us to understand and pity him?
@102 “I know about the fee because I was surprised that my car was much more than my truck and wondered why.”
Helps explain why Seattle streets are clogged with big pickup trucks driven by soccer moms.
@ 102
All we can do is point and laugh.
Newt, I believe you meant point and parrot. See @ 100.
First Vegetable Joe Biden lost another nominee. Raskin withdrew – she needs to attend to her children.
Biden is Joe Manchin’s whipping boy.
I don’t complain about something I don’t pay. I gloat about something that burdens YLB’s kids.
There’s a difference. You’ll see it in 20 years, when YLB’s kids are still struggling to make ends meet as a result of YLB’s votes. She’s voted with devastating consequences for her children.
It’s hard to contemplate that without smirking. Really, no use trying not to smirk.
Here’s what police say:
That an anonymous caller reported hearing gunshots.
That they canvassed the neighborhood and smelled marijuana.
That they found a small bag with a trace amount of suspected marijuana discarded on the ground outside the home.
Here’s what they did:
They amassed a force of twelve officers and their vehicles from across the entire jurisdiction. Every single on-duty officer reported to the scene in this small town.
They forced entry into the private home without a warrant.
The subdued, arrested, searched and charged every single person present in the house. Sixty five persons in all, ranging in ages from 15 to 31, were arrested and booked.
A local prosecutor and a local judge held all 65 without bond for two weeks.
Here’s what the evidence showed:
There was no report of a gunshot.
There was no marijuana present inside the home.
There were no guns present.
No crime of any kind had been committed by 64 of the 65 persons arrested.
One of those arrested, upon being searched, was to found to have a very small amount of cocaine in his possession.
All 65 of those arrested were Black.
All 12 of the officers, the prosecutor, and the judge were white.
In the days immediately following the arrest the prosecutor and police bragged to the media that they had broken up a major drug conspiracy in their small community.
Yesterday they were ordered to pay $1 million in damages to the 64 persons they unlawfully arrested and prosecuted four years ago.
What you see on television is not real.
This is what police actually do most of the time.
@116 Only $1 million? Not $1 million each? And none of them were prosecuted under the Ku Klux Klan act? They got off easy.
If Doctor Dumbfuck paid only $80,000 for his F-350, he doesn’t have to worry about being taken out by a $160,000 Javelin missile. No matter how seditious he becomes, he’s a too low-value target.
@113
What I really meant was to point and ridicule.
117,
Took place in Georgia. So…
Yeah, Putin might fall, but if he does, this guy might replace him.
Nothing good comes from Russia.
“EVs make money for rich people at the expense of poorer people.”
i don’t see how. I agree with you on solar, since they force those without solar to pay more to cover the utilitie’s costs. But EVs won’t increase the price of gas, since its a market driven commodity, if anything they will reduce it. So no its not a regressive tax. Economies of scale will ultimately bring down the cost of EVs, and they will be cheaper, easier to maintain, perform better and be much cleaner.
