6"Iä Hastur cf'ayak'vulgtmm, vugtlagln vulgtmm. Iä Hastur cf'ayak'vulgtmm, vugtlagln vulgtmm." The blood of an innocent is mixed with two egg yolks, half a teaspoon of pepper, half a teaspoon of chopped green onion, some flour, then mixed with mashed potatoes. The resulting glob is divided, shaped into circles, dipped in beaten egg and rolled through sifted breadcrumbs, then fried in peanut oil until a golden brown. Makes up to 10 croquettes and summons Hastur, the Unspeakable One, Him Who Is Not To Be Named.

On the other hand, Ace of Spades is on the verge of calling for political commissars on every flag officer in the military because McRaven is a fool.
A lot of people everywhere needs to have Creighton Abrams' quote told to them.

The word you are looking for, Chris, is "against".
He's not called Eric "nuke the peasants" Swalwell for nothing
Theresa May, making every other politician look good. Except maybe Eric.
The only people dumber than Matt Yglesias are his followers - and he can prove it.
I set up a new account - not now, a while back. Followed one person. Got suspended.
But grammatically precocious.

Good thing you're not a kindergarten teacher, Neva.

Sydney has now officially exited summer and the weather is pleasant and so the temperature immediately dropped to 10C last night. Need to buy a heavier quilt.
Meanwhile, I think an emu has nested in my air conditioner.
Don't talk to me or my roommate the cat ever again.
You can click through to find the garbage take that Rita is responding to, but it's not worth your time.
I got suspended for being adjacency adjacent.
The American media is not only bought and paid for, they sold themselves cheap.
I mean, what even is this?
Brian never fails to disappoint.
But he's through to the next bracket, so there's that.
It's true. All of it.
I suspect this is Kamala's work. The rest of the Democratic front runners are imbeciles, and she's a shark armed with nuclear laser torpedoes.
Even Vox awoke from its vodka-and-adderall-induced coma for five minutes to pile on.

No, I am pretty sure it is Hillary's machine, gearing up for her 2020 run, that is taking the shot at Biden. Kamala Harris is as much as an imbecilic dolt as the rest of the current 2020 roster - whatever else Willie Brown gave her, his political genius and skills were not among them.
The pity is that Biden might very well be the best candidate the Dems have for the general election. His issues aside, he is excellent at retail-level politics and given the current make-up of the Democrat hopefuls, he might be the only one with a serious shot of winning back the traditionally Democrat rural working class white voters who went for Trump in 2016.

Sandy Donkey-Chompers is *really* butthurt about Mike Lee's speech on the floor.
Of course, if that dumb bimbo's not prepared to invade India & China as opposed to turning the US into Somalia, her stupid Green Nude Eel isn't going to actually do anything.
And then, after blithely telling people all we need to do is print $90 trillion, she complains about the "waste of money" of Lee's posters. There's a Biblical verse about that.

I call her Bob now, after her rant about people not using her full hyphenated surname.

Hm, I wonder what Wikipedia says about Spanish-style surnames?
"A man named José Antonio Gómez Iglesias would normally be addressed as either señor Gómez or señor Gómez Iglesias instead of señor Iglesias, because Gómez is his first surname. "
Oh.

Michael Avenatti has been arrested for extortion and as soon as he gets out on bail is facing separate charges on wire fraud.

We're Going To Need A Bigger Envelope
I've been doing some back-of-the-envelope calculations on the real-world impact of the Green New Deal, based on existing projects like the California and Texas high-speed rail lines, and the cost escalation involved in running a multitude of such megaprojects simultaneously and on impossible deadlines.
First, if we take the published GND outline literally, the cost would run to around $375T per year, about four times the Gross World Product.
Second, during the execution of the 10 Year Plan, industrial and transport activity would be multiplied by roughly a factor of six - and so of course would greenhouse emissions. Replacing air transport with high speed rail, for example, would take 500 years to show a net reduction in CO2 emissions.
Third... I'm not sure if there even is a third. This is insane.

Wow. There is literally not enough money in the world to finance that dreck.

You can tell that no-one involved in this has ever done a cost analysis in their life. And they've never even heard of second-order effects.

Pixy You've omitted a major piece of the equation.
In fairness they were omitted from their FAQ.
These are socialists.
In order to bring high speed rail to everyone, they just have to upgrade the Acela slightly and kill everyone who doesn't live near it. Fewer people need less power so paving everything south of the Mason Dixon line with solar panels will power the Acela corridor nicely.

When you do the arithmetic, it turns out that diverting the resources necessary to replace all air travel in the continental United States with high speed rail in the space of ten years would kill everyone on the planet.
On the other hand, zero emissions achieved.

Which conveniently takes care of the objections from the dopey Senator from Hawaii.
