As I have had almost a whole bottle of wine, and feel generous – I will give the antifools a few pointers.
Avoid Red States. Their National Guards and cops won’t take this crap. Stick to CA, VA, WA, OR, etc. CS gas sucks. Like inhaling fishbones and fishhooks. Also, being hit with an oak baton that has been sitting in a Guard armory for 30+ years, waiting for the chance to smite a hippie or a “black bloc” idiot….kind of like stirring Gurthang… it will speak of your death.
Stay in TEAM BLUE areas, where the cops will be told to stay away from you, and the National Guard will sit in assembly areas and do naught.
Oh, and many TEAM RED areas have people with CC or open carry. Trying to punk someone with a 9mm and a full mag is sub-optimal.
Thus endeth the lesson.
Stop making Darwin cry Swiss.
WA/OR are both very conservative E of the Cascades. Generally VA is conservative outside N. VA with exceptions around some of the larger towns/cities.
Thus the idioten stay in the TEAM BLUE areas. Try that shite in Topeka…? End up full of holes. Or gassed and beaten.
“Damn long hairs never learn, chief.”
“It’s time for a good old-fashioned hippie ass-whomping!”
Heck, outside of the larger cities in Oregon. Btw, saw someone driving around with a State of Jefferson state seal decals on the side of their car in the Southern Oregon yesterday. Both the county LP and “state of Jefferson” have Adopt-a-highway signs on different sections of I-5 there.
Since they are going with the “Antifa is just reacting to violence!” line, it’s time for someone to form the antiantifa. Then again, I guess that would be turtles all the way down.

Great analysis. The best part of the article is the comments section.
Too big to fail. We’ll all be picking up the tab. You’re racist if you complain.
Ok. I’ve got 4 versions of my new review uploaded to a dummy account. All of them apparently have been flagged for copyright – even the one where I wiped the audio off the trailer (granted I used the “fade” feature for the entire piece, vs “muting” the audio). So….might still be some video too – although I was watching the new Annabell review by RLM – and I think you’re right about the audio stuff – might still be a length thing for other clips – I have no idea. Either way, if these get flagged but not pulled by tomorrow morning, I’ll stick one of them up.
It’s definitely hit or miss though because my first 2 reviews had no issues even though the second one was a US independent release. Maybe just using a shittier 3rd party posted trailer would work better than trying to use a good one.
In future I may just choose a very small clip from the trailer, include a link to a better trailer, etc. But I really like having the trailer with the review for context.
Note a couple versions have the trailer split into 2 pieces and still get flagged – approx 1 min per piece.
I created a vid.me account – will be interesting to see if there’s any flagging for my original vids when I try posting them there tomorrow morning too.
The audio is a legitimate issue. Also, not sure how you funded, but Paypal returns can be a VERY SERIOUS issue.
Well, I was hoping to eventually get monetization – nowhere close atm, but I don’t think that’s going anywhere anytime soon. No paypal acct tied to my youtube yet.
The question I still can’t figure out is how I can see so many other folks post stuff – even full trailer reactions, etc – without getting flagged/pulled.
I tweaked several of them with noise reduction, equalizer tips as well, but that didn’t make a difference – when someone mentioned “processing” – not sure if removing and reloading audio would make a difference.
In the end, may be better to leave it off – but I know folks (and me) prefer bits and pieces of clips….maybe take the trailer and intersperse it into 5-10 clips throughout the vid?
Also, I have heard if you stay below 30 seconds you will be all right, but it is not always so. Wish I could help you more. Here I found this, it may help.

Really wish I could drop the music without dropping the dialog, but the only option I can see on my program is to remove vocals (like some songs/albums you see people upload on YT)
I saw in another post your clip was 2 minutes long, so try it 30 seconds or less, by breaking it up in groups of four, eight, or twelve. I do not know personally if it will work, but I have seen others do it this way.
I would think Europe will just need to destroy everything and start over.

I tried growing weed in a deep forest once, near a hiker trail. It went pretty well for a while. On the day I went to harvest, it seemed someone had got there before and stole all the buds. Suddenly, I heard a rustle- STEVE SMITH
STEVE SMITH NO NEED FUNNY PLANT. PREFER RAPE. IF WAS STEVE SMITH, YOU WOULD HAVE KNOWN!
I don’t smoke, but a few years years ago I got a few plants from one of my neighbors who does. part of my land is a fairly steep hillside with very large oak trees. I planted three plants there. I ran a hose from well over there to water them amd put up a small chicken wire fence to keep the critters out. I put down some compost fertilizer and let them grow.
By the end of the summer I had to get rid of them. They had grown from about a foot to almost 4 feet each and I was beginning to get a bit nervous about them being spotted.
Anyway, I called my neighbor and my brother and told them they could have them if they would get rid of them. They were both eager. I don’t know how much pot they harvested or if the quality was any good, but I’m pretty sure it was a substantial amount.
Who the fuck are you people that you just get handed marijuana plants like that?
I’m trying to weed through the stupid Florida regulations (which the legislature fucked up, and are already getting sued over) to get medical pot for my mom (who has MS)
I don’t know about everyone else, but I’m just a regular country boy that has neighbors/friends who are large scale farmers who like to smoke pot sometimes. These guys are not interested in trying the legal route, but are also not interested in dealing with drug dealers. They work together, grow their own, and share. I have never heard of any of them selling any to try to make money. That’s not the point. If you’re on the up and up and a generally good person, they will share. If not, you’re not welcome around here.
Yep, same way in Southeastern Ok, too. Where you at Lachowsky? You close to Ft. Smith?
I live about 30 minutes east of ft. smith. I work in ft. smith. Where are you in Oklahoma?
Wilburton, Ok. It is about hour and fifteen minutes away from Ft. Smith.
Cool, I normally don’t associate with okies, but if your Glib, you’re probably alright.
LOL. Right, what is funny is I believe all the jokes you hear about Okies, Okies apply to Arkansasians.
Friend, the biggest argument my partner and I have is about SKU rationalization. We get cuttings and seeds and even clones from friends all the time and do the same in return. We’ve got 37 different strains right now. I’ve gave a half dozen teens away in April to friends just as a ‘here, we ain’t got room and this things gonna die, have fun, grow it in the closet’.
You should sell off your orphans before they reach their teens.
About half our plants on our farm are 8 feet tall or above. The smallest are probably 4 feet. We finished getting them all in their hoop houses to keep the rain off when it starts back up in a few weeks. We’ve spent the last two weeks getting land cleared, building, and putting the plants in the pots they’ll spend the rest of the summer and early fall in. Next week we’ll be training them on trellises. A few of the early bloomers are starting to flower, and all of them should be finished by the end of September or early October.
Our team has been busting ass to get to this point. Starting a business is never an easy thing to do. There are obstacles to be over come, more than it seems like you can reasonably do, and in this case lots of hard physical work. We’ve turned a 10 acre plot of land that was a defunct xmas tree farm into a productive cannabis grow operation, albeit a medical grow. Or at least the first phase of it. By next year we’ll have our rec license and be able to have over 20k sq ft of flower canopy outdoors and 5k sq ft of flower canopy indoors, with about half that each of immature plants. A year later, we’ll have doubled that. Six months after that, we’ll max out the amount we can have on that parcel by tripling it.
We got invited to take part in a grow competition and today was the day we moved those plants into our flower room. Those should be ready in 9 weeks. Right after the outdoor stuff in the hoop houses finishes flowering. While the plants are growing and our gardener is feeding and watering them, the rest of us will be working on building our dry room, and our mothers room. Our next harvest will be our largest yet and we’ll be buying a trimming machine to trim the bud.
We also accepted our first investor this week. We setup a LLC partnership, which in turn owns the company that grows the pot. Eventually we’ll own a processor, a lab, and a retail outlet, each a separate company owned by the parent LLC. the investor purchased 3% of the farm. That gives a valuation that is roughly 6x what it was when I got involved 5 months ago.
The weed business is growing like a weed and I’m having a blast.
As always, willing to answer questions, except about jobs. We have 3 FT employees, and 2 PT employees at this point in addition to my business partner and I. But we aren’t hiring. 🙂
Good to hear, I have been following your progress, and it is cool to see you succeed. It would be cool to update us through an article submission. I do not always get a chance to hit every thread, and would like to keep up with your progress. If you did submit in article form, it would be the first time in long time, I have read any articles. I just come here for the lively discussion.
Thank you. I think I may do that. Pull it all together in one place and make some comments on the regulatory environment parts of it and what it really takes to start up this kind of business by the boot straps.
Plus it could be good model, for any kind of business, and if Glibs are anything, it is about business and profit. Once again, Good lucky on your endeavor.
That sounds cool. I wish you luck in your business. May sessions never hear of you.
As an aside? How regulated are you by the state. I personally hate the way the legalization efforts are going with regards to how they are taking pot from a black market product to a highly regulated and taxed product. I think it undermines the effort. After jumping through all the hoops associated with rug u later compliance, Can your product compete price wise with black market weed?
Thank you. I’m not worried about Sessions. If they go after people it’s the black market folks they’ll go after. The state will cooperate with the feds on those. And Cali is where something like 80% of the black market weed that goes out around the country is from.
As for how regulated we are…it is a mixed bag. There are some ways where it is really weird and complicated, but usually that is where you have the intersection of pot regulations with other regulations like zoning. As far as the stuff that is purely about the weed; it honestly isn’t that bad. Compared to my time in food manufacturing or alcohol, it’s a cake walk. That said, 67% of the cannabusiness in our state have failed because of failure to comply with some real basic regulations.
The big regulations are; canopy size per licence, reporting requirements, and security requirements which are related to keeping the weed in the legal market. You can have up to 10k sq ft of canopy indoor, or you can trade 1 sq ft of indoor space for 4 sq ft of outdoor space. Keep you flowering canopy below that and you’re good. Then you report on various stages of growth and your harvest. The reporting is basically weight and date related. It’s all data that any good grow should be collecting anyway, and the state basically just wants to make sure you aren’t growing 100lbs, selling 80lbs in the regulated market, and then selling 20lbs on the black market. They actively work with you. The security requirements are about having cameras everywhere on the grow running all the time, which you want to do anyway.
There are also safety regs. Which fertilizers you can use, which insecticides, etc. And testing and labeling stuff that are consumer safety related. Again, compared to food and alcohol, easy-peasy compliance
As for competing on price, in Oregon, yes. Legal weed is actually a little cheaper than black market weed. As a producer, if we were to sell a pound on the black market, we’d get about a 5-10% premium which pushes up the chain. Since the taxes are only on the retail sail, it sort of evens out. Plus legal weed has the nanny labels and that offers some folks reassurance.
“Plus legal weed has the nanny labels and that offers some folks reassurance.”
That’s pretty funny. For decades people have been smoking weed that has been handled by chains of unscrupulous criminal gangs without ill effect. The governmemt swoops in and declares it legal and now all of a sudden proper product labeling is necessary to keep people safe.
Lefty comedians can’t do satire because the left isn’t smart enough to understand it so they get attacked. Awesome.

Strange that Tina Fey is the only personality I’ve come across that remembers the lessons of the 70’s. You ignore the inbred hicks. You don’t give them attention. And you let them speak as much as they’d like. Once they speak their piece, everyone can see what a bunch of short-bus riding idiots they are.
So good for Tina Fey. Way to impersonate a blind squirrel.
My apologies another Kevin. I was the cook at a family fish fry and I missed your hand loaders article. I am a somewhat experienced hand loader…50 years and a few million rounds, everything from 22 centerfire to 45 centerfire, both rifles and pistols. I will go back and read over.
The fish was really good. catfish filets cut into finger size strips battered in cajun mustard/tabasco sauce, sprinkled with cornbread mix until gooey and then dredged in dry cornbread mix. Fried at 375 for 5 minutes. Very crunchy crust, perfect tender white meat and delicious. I am sorry y’all weren’t there.
Fish fries are great. I like catfish, but to me, nothing can beat a good mess of croppie.
STEVE SMITH LIKE TO EAT MANY CRAPPIE AT FISH BOIL. ALSO LIKE TO RAPE FISH, TOO. AND FISHERMAN.
Yum yum!
My “friends” who berated me for daring to state that there were violent left-wing elements in the crowd in Charlottesville have apparently spent the last two days making jokes about punching Nazis and other various violent acts. Don’t really care anymore.
Meanwhile, the SHIPS model continues to bring a hurricane here by next Wednesday. None of the other models are developing a storm at all. So I expect Publix to be a zoo this weekend.

Life isn’t too bad, for one night at least.
Apparently I’m defending racists because I defend free speech. My niece, “Do you want to say racist things? No. So it would affect your right to free speech.”
None too proud of my gene pool today
Wouldn’t *
Ah! I get what she is saying.
Ask her who defines what is racist. Try to find something she likes, and twist it so that it seems racist.
There’s a chance that she’ll give up the thing she,likes rather than see the point, though.
I actually had to block her on FB. She said the racists would target my daughter and wife (not white) and so I should support beating white supremacists. If anyone not family would’ve said that, I would have told them to go fuck themself.
It is an interesting assertion. Would people like Richard Spencer do anything more than call people names, though?
If the Alt-Right/Alt-White gain political power, is there any hint that they would use that power to, say, bring back slavery or legalize mob lynchings?
In other words, in what form would this “targeting of minorities” appear?
If you take them at their word, mass deportations of people who immigrated after 1965 reform and their descendants. Also, packing Jews off to Israel.
And helicopter rides. Many, many helicopter rides.
“Do you want to say racist things? No. So it would affect your right to free speech.”
I’m having trouble understanding her point.
Me too.
I think it’s the equivalent of being OK with mass surveillance if “you have nothing to hide.”
First they came for the racists, and I said nothing because I wasn’t racist.
Then they came for the people who put up Christmas trees before Thanksgiving, and I said nothing because “meh”
Then they came for the climate “science” deniers, and I lost my career/home/family because obviously I hate Gaia. And the children.
(the obvious “If we ban hate speech, who decides what’s hate speech?” debate seems entirely absent from the mainstream media.)
My niece was a Bernie supporter. I’m trying to work on her, at least she hated Hillary.
Kids say the darnedest things.
I’d have laughed it off like that if she hadn’t made it personal. I’m still fucking pissed and it’s been two days.

Tartan Monk
Belgian Style Scotch Ale
ABV IBU
7.5% 28
Tartan monk is our take on a Scotch ale – a dark ale with a hint of roastiness and full body. Ours has a twist in that it is made with a Belgian yeast strain – giving it some interesting dark fruit notes not found in many Scotch ales.
STEVE SMITH APPROVE! RAPE MONKS LATER, TO SHOW APPRECIATION.
Oooh. Right in my wheelhouse. Thanks!
Swiss,
You’ve probably already had it, but Scotch Silly is a fruity, Belgian brewery’s take on Scotch ale. https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/804/2489/
It happens to be pretty awesome. Fruity, not dry, which is a minus IMHO for a Scotch ale. It’s just so damn spicy and tasty though. 10.5 alcohol.
I have enjoyed that one more than once, thankee!
Had a co-worker talking about punching Nazis. I told him, “Yeah, I hate fucking socialist”. He leans toward socialist policies, so it was good comeback. I said, ” If I punched everyone for different views that interfere with my well being, he would be black and blue. ”
A better solution would be to cage these national socialist and international socialist where they can fight it out until one person is standing, Highlander fashion, then let the one out. While walking out Mattis can shoot them, with tears in his eyes.
Can we kickstarter to build an arena? Throw it up on TV. Then after a winner is declared we blow up the building while the winners celebrate.
Your plan will make us some coin, so I am in.
Sounds great…we could call it the Chunderdome.
It’s basically what happened with Trump, but with Nazis and even more violent fantasies. Trump becomes a socially acceptable target to say all kinds of deranged or stupid nonsense about and people basically throw off their persona limitations and start indulging in some really crazy nonsense. Beginning with the Spencer punch and now this it’s basically the next cycle of people dreaming up self-indulgent violent fantasies. They have a fundamentally childish worldview where its their own personal action movie with them as the ‘good guys’ and their opponents as the bad, and it’s constantly being reinforced by mob mentality.
That’s what’s really worrying about the whole thing, that this cycle of violent fantasies just keeps repeating itself over and over again when these people don’t get what they want and keep changing targets.
For those who care, tomorrow I’ll be offline as it’s one of the drunkest days in Lakewood. It’s a day of eating wings and drinking beer. It’s a tough life.
Great Lakes?!
Get the Elliot Ness and the Edmund Fitzgerald.
Swiss, I’m sorry to tell you, but both of those are old hat to me. Great Lakes is the old respected brewery here in Cleveland. They make a lot of decent beers, very rarely failing (the chamomile saison was one that I was one of the few who appreciated what they were going for). I mean I’ve got Barrel Aged Blackout Stout sitting in my cellar.
Tomorrow will be finding the session beers that each bar has, as it’s 12 bars with 4 wings each, and a beer special throughout. I can guarantee that midway we’ll be drinking a pint of Stiegl Radler, just to save our livers.
Sounds like a good plan to me.
I got excited. I thought you were talking about Lakewood Brewery in Dallas. But no.
I’m drinking Southern Tier’s Creme Brulee Imperial Milk Stout. It tastes like cotton candy mixed with the pureed anal pustules of a civet cat.
But I paid for the damn thing so I’m gonna finish it.
Woof… that’s a tough one. I thought it tasted like butterscotch syrup, and I struggled through the 22 oz bottle I picked up. I’ve put it in my never again category.
Oh Yeah, it does taste…butterscotchy. almost done though. Years of drinking keystone have taught me the tricks of ingesting alcohol while minimizing contact with the tastebuds.
I liked that on draft but it was too sickly-sweet bottled.
Had a Dragon’s Milk stout with dinner – a little strong for me (combo flavor/content) even though I love Gulden Draak style ales – but not bad.
I know the feeling. The Nitro Red Velvet Cake Stout from Ballast Point sounded a whole lot better than it’s tasting.
Cadenhead’s Old Raj Gin, and Q tonic, still delivers though. It’s really tasty enough to sip straight though.
It seems like a lot of breweries think it’s okay to load up stouts with dessert like flavors to the nth degree when just a hint would be perfect.
The only beer I couldn’t finish is Dragon’s Milk from New Holland Brewing. Blech. The only thing worse is Camo Black. The tastes of that is best described with this pic:

Thanks. You made my fiancee cry.
Damn! I had a multi-year streak going of not reducing a woman to tears.
Btw didn’t get to it in the other thread but congrats on graduating the language course!
Had that problem with a pint of Old Crustacean barely wine once. Or was it a pitcher?
So, you don’t like bourbon or good stouts? Are you sure you’re not Uncivil Servant?
I love stouts, porters, and brown ales. A good pilsner is nice once in a while. Liquor’s not my thing.
Make sure you try Marston’s Oyster Stout if you can find it. It’s delightful.
When I was at college I was told by a professional that maybe free speech is outdated concept because of Hitler. Think about they really do think we can’talk have speech because of Hitler.
Should have told them to shut up, because Hitler.
They absolutely believe that today. Of course they would never abuse this nifty little power of thought policing.
Germany and a lot of other European “countries” treat speech this way. And look how great they’re doing.
Is it possible to have statues or monuments to any dead people? The abolitionists almost certainly would not have approved of gay marriage or homosexuality in general, quite a few would have been white supremacists, may not have liked the Irish (Thomas Nast for example) or Chinese or Jews, may not have approved of women’s rights. Also what did they think of Indians? They wanted to spread free labor into Indian territory and the US army that defeated the CSA had been and continued to kill Indians.
Didn’t the guy who dissented on Plessy vs. Ferguson say that he disapproved of segregation because they weren’t discrimnating against the Chinese.
Or those first wave feminists who thought black and Chinese rights would distract from women’s rights.
“If convicted, Lindholm would no longer appear on the show, Graham said.”
Gee, ya think? Why? Scheduling conflict? “I can’t film on Tuesday, how’s 20yrs to life sound? I’ll pencil you in.” Morons.
One thing I notice that is messing up the 1960/70s stategy of Cato and Reason is the misunderstanding of the rise of the socons.
The two groups most heavily associated with socons are Catholics and Southern Baptists who until recently where Democrats (are Catholics still?). The progs owe a lot to the Northern Mainline Protestants who were Republican and if you look at the history books were quite willing to use government to remedy social ills.
Also the 19th century Republicans who opposed slavery and supported Reconstruction also believed that marriage was between one man and one woman, free trade was bad, open borders were bad and corporate welfare was good.
The original Trump Supporters, eh?
The Hamilton guys hate Trump despite the fact that his views are closer to Trump’s than to theirs…
*snorts drink through nostrils*
“The Army of the Republic of Vietnam suffered 254,256 recorded deaths between 1960 and 1974…”
Damn. They fought harder than I thought.
From what I can glean from Wikipedia, they actually did okay in 1972…just their air and tank arms were woefully underequipped compared to the nva.
So…hate to dredge up old news, but I’ve been off-line for a few days. Went back looking for the Eddie/Titor dust up and I couldn’t find it. Did it really get memory-holed?
Apparently, it has. The dust-up in question occurred in the comments of this article, but it looks like the comments have been removed.
https://glibertarians.com/2017/08/sex-gender-bit-of-both-neither/
I didn’t really look at them in great detail. It was some argument about gay bars getting raided in decades past.
It sure would be nice if it was still there so we all could make up our own minds about it. I didn’t spend a lot of time at Reason before the migration here, but I seem to remember comments being disappeared as something everyone thought was really wrong…
It may re-emerge. We didn’t need the drama, frankly.
It’s your site and all, but seriously? No drama allowed?
I’d also really like to see the mod note that has also now been memory-holed. I’ve heard privately from a lurker that it was…interesting.
I don’t remember seeing anything too amazing. It’s possible something was posted after I crashed, but the comments really trail off after all the old East Coast codgers fall asleep (apparently 10pm EST). Us West Coast folks have slim pickings.
It got a bit feisty with Eddie (Fusionist) and threw a slap at John Titor. Eddie did not …react well. JT did. ’nuff said, for now.
It’s my understanding that Titor escalated first. It’s also my understanding that the Mod note that showed up was much harsher on Eddie than Titor.
I may be understanding wrong. But again, it’s all been memory-holed…just like Reason used to do.
Yeah Titor got huffy first then tit for tat after that. Nothing exciting. Liar and ignoramus were some of the worst insults I remember. It was more like an internet slap fight.
Prolly just that time of the month…
This was my thought as well. Surprising and confusing. For a site where mods and commenters make schadenfreude jokes about rape, molestation, and murders on a daily basis getting prudish about two people in a heated argument calling each other idiots and liars seems while still arguing their points seems… incongruent?
I miss all the fun stuff. Stupid taking the kid out to do stuff and spending time with my wife. When will I learn?
The shitstorm in question has been moved into moderation.
John Titor has been humble and apologized.
Eddie …well….
But Imma leave it lay for now.
*I apologized to the site staff for being a cunt, I didn’t apologize to Eddie. Because I’m not that humble.
Good enough for me.
*flinches*
Long as the staff is happy, I guess.
The “top men?”
*scowls, drinks moar*
I think it is disingenuous to memory hole that discussion if that is what happened. I thought it was pretty civil considering how heated John and Eddie seemed to be (I think”liar” and “idiot” were the most egregious insults thrown around). I am disappointed that anyone claiming to be a libertarian felt the need to moderate an argument this tame. It really seems to go against the very idea of libertarianism and the marketplace of free ideas.
I suppose I get not wanting “drama” (subjective), but it was one of the more interesting exchanges (beyond the petty insults) I’ve seen in the past few weeks. It was a nice change of pace from the vanilla quips and hackneyed, banal references to Steve Smith and OMWC pedolictions. I think it also sends the message that if anyone argues too much, too passionately, or in a way some pearl clutcher thinks is uncivil, your discussion will be memory holed.
Clarification: pretty civil FOR THE INTERNET
Thank you. You said clearly what I was dancing around for fear of irritating the mods.
I hope my honesty won’t irritate anyone, but if it does a picture of a cat anus is hardly the worst repercussion I’ve ever had to deal with.
STAND BY, you may see it re-emerge.
If not…who wants everyone to see the vomit on their kitchen floor, eh?
My cats seem fairly proud of their vomit. They stand by it and look at me like “Whatchoo gonna do about it, Bitch?”
One man’s vomit is another man’s masato.

*secretly scribbles on proscription list*
Also, SP bestowed on me a get out of cat-butting free card, so I’m feeling little cocky.
…a little cocky…
Not, “little cocky.” Two WAY different things
In STEVE SMITH thread, probably a good way to avoid attention (i.e. rape).
Oh yeah….you have the Golden Ticket!
Feeling little cocky…
do go on..
*slow clap*
Pssshhh… as if I would ever fear someone who was a candy-assed officer. Gunnery sergeant on the other hand…
I was an Infantry E-5, first…
*warms up cursing voice*
You were enlisted and you still went back for more? Ugh. No thanks.
But I respect that you made the smart choice and upgraded to officer. I never understood lifers who remained enlisted. All you had to do was look at the pay difference between an E-6 with 10 years in and an O-2 with 2 years in.
Holy shit, Rebel Media fell apart this week. I stopped following them due to constant whining and petty bitching about PM Zoolander (and it’s me saying that), but damn. If you want Retard Soap Opera, videos on that page are great.
Also, no link but CBC stuck the knife in. Well, now all the national media is safely back in Ontario, where it belongs, so we can forget about the Harper anomaly and continue running of the country by Ontario and Quebec.
History’s greatest monsters.
Levant to distance The Rebel from the “alt-right” white nationalist movement that violently marched on the Virginia college town on the weekend, The Rebel’s sympathetic coverage of the movement’s racist provocateurs
Uh is National Post seriously trying to saying that a news organization run by Ezra Levant is sympathetic to anti-Semites?
Those crafty Jews, I knew they were behind Nazi all along!
Er…that might actually be an alt-right position, they’re Jew-obsessed enough to believe that.
Fuck, my sarcasm needs to recalibrate to understatement.
And, man, I remember when National Post was designated far-right newspaper…
Hell, they specifically mention in the bloody thing that Faith Goldy, crazy Caesaropapist that she is, was terminated specifically because of her association with a Daily Stormer podcast. You manage to say that they’re sympathetic to white nationalists, while mentioning that they’re terminating employees when they associate with white nationalists? Jesus Christ, learn to yellow journalist guys.
Ceasaropapist. That would look good on a business card.
People call Shapiro a NAZI. Nothing surprises me anymore. If anything the ‘everyone I don’t agree with is a NAZI’ nonsense proves how silly name calling ultimately is and how the old “sticks and stones adage” holds true.
Well, until YesYourRacist doxes you and gets you fired for looking like someone at the tiki torch vigil in Charlottesville.
Yeah, people have been screaming calling Ezra Levant a Nazi. I mean, easy mistake to make with a name like that.
He joins the proud ranks of other Jewish Nazis like Ben Shapiro (who wears a fucking yarmulke in public) and the h3h3productions guys.
Seig mazel tov!
*belows with laughter*
Supposedly Tom Kratman, being crazy fucker he is, has a “Judas Maccabeus SS Brigade” in one of his books.
Hilariously, while the wikipedia entry has scathing critiques, no plot summary. All if know is, if Kratman and Ringo wrote that together, sanity and reason were not involved.
I imagine that anything written by those two together would basically be 40k’s Imperial Guard, but every single one of them is Rambo, instead of just one of them.
And the aliens would all mysteriously be like Arabs.
Quick summary:
An otherwise totally inept German government rejuvenate a bunch of old SS vets to fight off an impending alien invasion. When the excrement hits the rotary air impeller the SS starts stuffing every warm body they can get their hands on into units named after an appropriate national hero of the guys in the unit.
It’s very silly, has lots of explosions, and can be found in the slender book section of your library, or on one of the old Baen CDs floating around online.
NP joined the virtue signalling pile on, nothing more than that.
So they got rid of Laura Southern and Faith Goldy? Is that why Gavin Mcginnis virtue signalled so hard about not going to Charlottesville? To stay with Rebel Media? Although Gavin has FU money from VICE so I’d be surprised if he’s worried about staying employed with Rebel.
And is it just me, or does Ezra just come across as a really creepy guy?
Lauren Southern quit months ago to do her own thing, Goldy got fired recently for being on a Daily Stormer podcast, McGinnis left because he apparently got a way better deal elsewhere.
McGinnis left? He just posted something for Rebel yesterday though.
https://www.therebel.media/gavin_mcinnes_august_18_2017
If Southern left on her own, it wasn’t a great move. Without her patreon, who’s paying her bills?
Southern has started doing shit that she probably couldn’t get away with working for Rebel (i.e. getting arrested for the hanging out with European nationalists shooting flares at refugee boats).
Well she had Patreon *then*. And possibly she got some severance (or “hush money” as it’s called in the Caolan Robertson video).
Holy shit!

I first came to know Ezra Levant through his resistance to that “human rights” star chamber and creepy is not what comes to mind. I’ve heard a lot of criticism of Levant and I’m honestly not sure what’s true (other than I’m reasonably certain that’s he’s not actually a Nazi, hyuk hyuk), given the sheer amount of utterly bogus smears flying around right now, and I haven’t taken the care to research myself or heard something from somebody whose judgement I can trust.
Jew a Nazi?!
/?
Some might say a Jew is the perfect cover for a Nazi. Well not some… a whole lot of leftist idiots.
You don’t think there is anything weird about Ezra paying their employees “hush money” or the shady crowdfunding and email collection?
I actually hadn’t seen that Caolan Robertson video at the time I wrote that comment–and didn’t finish it–but, yeah, that looks dubious.
OT: So…I believe I made a poor career choice.
As a small handful of you may remember, I decided to deviate from my most naturally inclined line of work to takeover the day to day operations of my step-brother’s window/doors /painting/staining shop.
This transpired around a month or so prior to his father’s death from terminal cancer(don’t offer me condolences, his mother married my father when we were in our twenties and my interactions with my step’s father could be counted on a single hand with room to spare). Ever since then, he and his wife/co-owner have been pretty much MIA in regards to the day to day operations of running the business. While I initially took that as I sign pf trust, my attitude has drastically changed as of late.
Why, you may ask? Well, as I said, His father had terminal cancer. But he fought off death for about three years before succumbing to his illness. And during that time period, he accumulated a small mountain of opioids. And understandably so.
However, given the fact that Hospice doesn’t remove any Rx’s after the passing of the patient(Nor should they. I’m not advocating the idea of a more rigid form of governance in any form. This is just a drunken rant.) I’m pretty sure my stepbrother and his old lady helped themselves to the remainder of the pain killers and have completely bottomed out.
So, what to do? The most viable economic alternative is to join the local painter’s union. But I absolutely hate the concept of the quality of my work being brushed aside for seniority. In fact, belonging to a ‘collective’ outside my credit union gives me a big floppy noodle.
What should I do?/end of drunken rant I’ll regret tomorrow.
This puts me in a precarious situation. On one hand, he’s family and I don’t want to leave him in a lurch. One the other hand, the(drug induced) disregard for the operation of his business is starting to affect me financially.
He denied it, but believe me, as somebody who’s fucked up his life because of an addiction to a woman who loved opioids within the last five years, I can recognise the behaviour. They hoarded the stash and have been high as a fucking kite for nearly two months.
That stash will eventually run out. Then they will have to either get back to work to feed their habit or go further off the rails. You might give it a bit more time.
Can you find someone to buy the business?
Have you been in a trade union before?
As someone who’s business is a union signatory, and as a union member, the trades are pretty cutthroat. If you aren’t good, you get laid off or fired. Quickly. Time in the union doesn’t mean shit and your job security is only as good as you are. Contractors aren’t government, we can’t afford dead weight. Time in the company is another thing, but that is the same for any company until you prove your worth.
If you are experienced, you can be hired on as a journeyman out of the gate. If you demonstrate you are good, and if work is plentiful, you can ask to be compensated above and beyond union rates. I have done it and seen it done often.
Besides the small amount of local dues I pay each month, and the small amount that comes out of my paycheck and goes to the national dues, I don’t ever think about the fact that I’m in the union. I don’t go to meetings (hardly anyone ever does), I don’t picket when there is a strike or demonstration (hardly anyone does), and strikes are extremely rare (usually lasting a day or two max).
‘Have you ever been a trade union before?’
The Transport Workers Union for American Airlines: 2002-2004, Logan Airport, Boston Mass. Does that count? Fuck it(Fun Fact!: I’ve worked the gates that dispatched the planes that leveled the World Trade Center).
To be fair, the strength of the union was at an all-time low during my employment there, so my view on the matter is probably skewed, but the union seemed pretty feckless. At the age of 23 I was in charge of the ‘bag room’ for the entire Eastern flight routes out of Logan for AA. Which is no trivial task given the fact that the amount of thrust required to lift the plane off the runway is an algorithm based upon the the average weight of a passenger and the specific weight of the luggage. Fuck up the math too badly, and you could theoretically crash a plane.
The point being, there were fellow union members who were next to worthless, yet unfireable. I’ve seen newbies lose control of a tug and rip the nose off a thirty million dollar jet, while still inside their ninety day probation period, and still retain their jobs. I’ve also seen career ‘company’ union members do next to nothing for years on end and draw far better wages than I do despite working circles around them.
I apologize if this coming across as hostile. It’s not intended to be so…did I mention I’ve been drinking?…Sorry.
It’s all good. Yeah baggage handling… that’s a different world. I had a buddy who worked in an airport in a similar position and he had similar tales.
Like I said though, trades are a lot different. Really there aren’t noticeable differences between union and non-union tradesmen in terms of job security. Non-union guys seem to put up with a lot more bullshit and lower pay on average IMO… but you’ve got some smaller union companies that do some of the same shit (late checks, forgot to pay benefits, make you work comp time instead of overtime, etc).
As I’ve said elsewhere, I’ve fired my fellow union “brothers” literally four hours after they started working because their quality and/or speed just wasn’t up to snuff. In some ways, the worst part about being in a trade union is that if you are a journeymen, you can’t willingly accept less than that rate (which I think is about $35/hour now for carpenters – which is around $55/hour with benefits). That means you have to be earning that $55/hour or you are out on your ass.
This makes it difficult for journeyman carpenters who don’t have a wide array of skills to switch jobs. EG- If most of their work experience is in concrete, then good luck ever holding on to interior finish job because no employer is going to pay you $55/hour to learn your craft.
I probably should have said “construction trade union” but to me ‘trades’ only means on thing: construction.

Tru dat. But,…the congnitiv
Squirrels at Glibs?!
Da fuck?
Nevermind. I’m over it for the evening.
Where do you live that hospice doesn’t destroy the drugs? When my mother was dying we had to log everything we gave her very carefully, and when she died the very first thing that happened, within about 15 minutes even though it was about 11 PM, was that someone showed up to account for all the drugs and destroy them. This was in Texas though…
Do you have any equity in the business, or are you just working for them? If it’s a successful business, and you think you could run it well you might be able to negotiate a good-sized share of the business and freeze them out of managing it unless/until they get it together. Still, having partners who have gone off the rails is always a dodgy situation. One of my best friends owned a restaurant with two other people, and he and one of his partners got pretty deep into smack. They really drove the place into the ground, especially since between them they ran the kitchen and front of house, and handled all the money… but he did later get it together (kind of- he probably has 12-18 drinks a day and definitely does a little more Molly than I would consider wise, but mainly stays off the opiates) and successfully manages the restaurant/bar at a resort now.
Dammit, cable is showing Grand Budapest Hotel. I can’t go to bed until it’s over!
Ugh. I like his movies but “twee” sends shivers up and down my manly spine…
From the Zardoz links last night:
I know someone like this who is getting married next year. The first time my wife and I went out with the couple in question she was practically all over the dude’s friends. It was really weird. Husband-to-be is a nice guy, and puts up with a lot of her crazy shit (aka pussy-whipped) – no offense to the few female glibs here, but I don’t really view American women as marriageable material on the whole (you might also feel that way about American men, though on the whole they don’t seem as bad to me, I was also never in that market). Obviously everyone is different, but I feel there is a strain of something very wrong in American society which makes it very difficult to find someone who will be a dedicated spouse. Luckily I no longer have that problem, but I did have to pay shipping and taxes on the imported model.
Maybe I am just old fashioned, but people like this make me want to cleanse the earth of heretics, schismatics and heathens: Deus vult!
