WOW MAN! The colors!
Looks like the stuff that one eyed dood does, Cthouly, or sumfink.
If this is heaven, then I’m in hell
If trust is misfortune, then wish me well
Has anyone heard from Mike Austin?

Yes, it’s Dale Chihuly himself. The glass, that’s his. He put glass on the map but he wasn’t from Seattle, as many suppose. Seattle sucks up all the air in the room no matter what. He was born in Tacoma. Not to say that he did not piss in every corner of Seattle, because he did. He manages to be counted among the Northwest School, which never existed and anyway was closed to membership after the nineteen-fifties.
It’s well worth seeing the magnificent museum in Tacoma with his name on it, or at least try to see a video walk through.
“Seattle sucks up all the air in the room” –you got that right! AND, it is the leader in organizing the communist take over of America!
However, I do have something to post today that I think I can hear G laughing! Try this one:

You are certainly right about Seattle sucking the air out of the room, but never forget they are the primary organizers of the communist takeover of this country. They call themselves “forward thinking”.
However, I have something to post that I think would make G smile.

Good one Anne.
One could write a great deal about toilet paper, and the strange things that preceded its use: sticks, pessoi, bamboo etc.
In fact someone has: Susan Morrison, a medieval literature professor at Texas State University authored the book “Excrement in the Middle Ages; Sacred Filth and Chaucer’s Fecopoetics” (Palgrave Macmillan, 2008)!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Remember the USS Liberty! On this 56th anniversary, as the manifold perfidies of Landslide Lyndon et al are seeping into wider public acknowledgement, perhaps finally the time is ripe for this most egregious of evils to be revisited, and the yet living perpetrators, foreign and domestic alike, to receive their just deserts.
Had to look that one up. Thanks captflee.
ON JUNE 8, 1967, while patrolling in international waters in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, USS Liberty (AGTR-5) was savagely attacked without warning or justification by air and naval forces of the state of Israel. Of a crew of 294 officers and men (including three civilians), the ship suffered thirty four (34) killed in action and one hundred seventy three (173) wounded in action. The ship itself, a Forty Million ($40,000,000) Dollar state of the art signals intelligence (SIGINT) platform, was so badly damaged that it never sailed on an operational mission again and was sold in 1970 for $101,666.66 as scrap.
At 1400 hours, while approximately about 17 nautical miles off the northern Sinai coast and about 25 nautical miles northwest of El Arish, USS Liberty’s crew observed three surface radar contacts closing with their position at high speed. A few moments later, the bridge radar crew observed high speed aircraft passing over the surface returns on the same heading. Within a few short moments, and without any warning, Israeli fighter aircraft launched a rocket attack on USS Liberty. The aircraft made repeated firing passes, attacking USS Liberty with rockets and their internal cannons. After the first flight of fighter aircraft had exhausted their ordnance, subsequent flights of Israeli fighter aircraft continued to prosecute the attack with rockets, cannon fire, and napalm.
During the air attack, USS Liberty’s crew had difficulty contacting Sixth Fleet to request assistance due to intense communications jamming. The initial targets on the ship were the command bridge, communications antennas, and the four .50 caliber machine guns, placed on the ship to repel boarders. After the Israeli fighter aircraft completed their attacks, three Israeli torpedo boats arrived and began a surface attack about 35 minutes after the start of the air attack. The torpedo boats launched a total of five torpedoes, one of which struck the side of USS Liberty, opposite the ship’s research spaces. Twenty-five Americans, in addition to the nine who had been killed in the earlier air attacks, were killed as a result of this explosion.

DoD Approves Of Their Action
USS LibertyThe Department of Defense Law of War Program (DoD Directive 2311.01E – formerly DoD Directive 5100.77) provides that “All reportable incidents committed by or against U.S. personnel, enemy persons, or any other individual are reported promptly, investigated thoroughly, and, where appropriate, remedied by corrective action.”
On June 8, 2005 the USS Liberty Veterans Association submitted A Report of War Crimes Committed Against the USS Liberty, June 8, 1967 to the Department of Defense in accordance with the DoD Law of War Program.
The War Crimes Report we filed lists allegations of acts committed during the attack on our ship, including:
The jamming of our radios on both US Navy tactical and international maritime distress frequencies;
The use of unmarked aircraft by the forces attacking the USS Liberty;
The deliberate machine gunning of life rafts we had dropped over the side in anticipation of abandoning ship; and
The recall of two flights of rescue aircraft that had een launched from Sixth Fleet aircraft carriers. After those flights were recalled, Sixth Fleet personnel listened to our calls for help as the attack continued knowing they were forbidden to come to our assistance.
The Department of Defense has unilaterally waived its obligation under the Department of Defense Law of War Program by refusing to investigate the allegations contained in the War Crimes Report. The Department of Defense has also refused to provide a speaker to address the crew of the USS Liberty and explain their actions with regard to the War Crimes Report.
Israel apologized for the attack, saying that the USS Liberty had been attacked in error after being mistaken for an Egyptian ship. Both the Israeli and U.S. governments conducted inquiries and issued reports that concluded the attack was a mistake due to Israeli confusion about the ship’s identity. Others, including survivors of the attack, have rejected these conclusions and maintain that the attack was deliberate.
In May 1968, the Israeli government paid US$3.32 million (equivalent to US$28 million in 2022) to the U.S. government in compensation for the families of the 34 men killed in the attack. In March 1969, Israel paid a further $3.57 million ($28.5 million in 2022) to the men who had been wounded. In December 1980, it agreed to pay $6 million ($21.3 million in 2022) as the final settlement for material damage to Liberty itself plus 13 years of interest.
Thanks captflee. I had to look that one up. Had totally forgot about it.

Careful there, Joe Krill.

Big Sister Early Life Check has silently banned me from commenting here (hence my recent silence) because I dared mention this topic on Memorial Day. Maybe you didn’t see the posts which magically got memory holed. It’s not the the refrigerator contents she’s sneaky about.

I’m sitting here trying to think what is to be done. The Federal DoJ is totally corrupt, lawless, politicized, and weaponized. As desperate as they are to get Trump on anything, so they are desperate to prevent any legal jeopardy to fall upon the Fraudulent no matter how egregious.
The Congress just awarded the DoJ full funding for the next two years. Not even token resistance to its corruption, it’s clear the 535 want the DoJ to continue doing exactly what they are doing. Beat down with all legal tools available anyone in the country who could be a threat to their hegemony.
The entire FedGov has just shown it to to the people of the country, that they are almost without constraint and the people dare do and can do nothing to change this.
The last line of peaceful constraint are the occasional Federal Judges who declare that some action, some interpretation of law, cannot be done because it is “without limiting principle”. Those Judges are fewer every day.
There has to be a way of returning to a constrained, limited government of enumerated powers, with fidelity to a Constitution. Voting will not do it. The Demos and the Repubs are united in their lust for unlimited power.
I shall think on it and write about it, what is to be done. I have to find a way to start doing.
One last time.
The constitution is flawed.
There is no way to bring it back with this flaw intact.
The flaw is what allows the politicians to ignore the constitution.
In the meantime, you must reinforce your bolthole in all ways.
Create your own country of like minded people in whatever ways you can.
We’re going back to the 18th century (pre-constitution) whether you like it or not so you best get your head around the idea.
I found it interesting how the media, and I suppose Congress, branded the budget vote under fanciful titles, but in the end it was just the fukn budget! The budget is normal shit, not any of the fancy headlines given, such as “debt ceiling” and “bipartisan budget”. It’s. the. budget.
What was in the budget? A shit sandwich. What else? It ever has been so. I don’t like any govt. spending, and in my secret wishes I’d love to see certain agencies; most agencies, eviscerated of their money. The FBI, CIA, DOJ – all of them need bleeding of the green.
So, in spite of the stalwart words of a few lion-hearted congress critters, the DC behemoth oozes across the American landmass unchecked. Now, another stupid court case against Trump; documents?? We understand that as soon as Trump touches a document, it becomes declassified in a legal sense. I mean, you & I cannot see them, but F if he cannot. It’s a BS charge. OTOH, the shipt Pence and VP at the time Biden saw and archived in the Corvette garage is illegal. Hillary had all those oppo FBI files while first lady, you might recall. You never realized that dem first ladies have full access to a weaponized FBI; I’d love to see Mrs. Trump with a case of the ass hammering the Left with an FBI bludgeon. Please, dear God. That would be political heaven.
Trump will escape this and most charges because they are meritless. The sheer number of legal charges will be unloaded upon him, and eventually they’ll get through him and sic that sorry shit on your foul azz. It’s a political battle for our lives and it isn’t pretty – The Sopranos looks clean compared to the political bloodletting we’re about to face.
However, Trump will become stronger the harder you hit him. The American people demand trump as president. There are conditions in which he can win, but the dems will fight us every step of the way.
A WARNING!
To all straight, white, non-Jewish males in liberal states, i.e. WA and CA for sure and certainly others.
If you fall into the above-mentioned category please do not be forced into accepting a female MD as your physician in charge of any aspect of your medical care! You are truly evil threat, and they are dedicated to the ideal of women taking over the leadership of the world–guess who looses?
Can you elaborate on this?
Sheesh, it is not the Constitution that’s flawed, it’s man, or a group of, dedicated to this one world order, a govt so far beyond corrupt, that burning it down to the ground is the only answer!.
You see a flawed document, I see a document so powerful so well penned that its words, It’s intent is to this day keeping those dedicated to the destruction of our Republic at bay.
The Constitution has withstood a hundred years of bombardment from brilliant minds to subvert it.
It is Case Law, Judges whom make Case Law from the Bench, whom have created the opportunity to individually interpret the words the intent of this Constitution penned by The Framers.
The Constitution is the single most important document ever prepared and incorporated by people ever.
