While we’re waiting for a new song, let’s look back at 20th century man.

Although…

Ain’t got no ambition, I’m just disillusioned
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t want to be here.
My mama said she can’t understand me
She can’t see my motivation
Just give me some security,
I’m a paranoid schizoid product of the twentieth century.

He’s not all that different from 21st century man.

Well, except for the fact that a johnson is no longer required for man-hood.

 

I just hope they spent enough infrastructure money on bike paths so people can escape!

Spillway repairs at the troubled Oroville Dam will get their first major test this weekend, as meteorologists have revised their forecast and are now predicting a much wetter and warmer storm outlook…

“It looks like it’s going to be a pretty good rainmaker,” said NWS meteorologist Mike Smith. “You’re looking at 10 inches from Sunday night to Monday night.”

Only in CA could they screw up hydraulic despotism.

 

Now, the media lies, but I hope this is true.

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson is cleaning house at the State Department, according to a report.

Staffers in the offices of deputy secretary of state for management and resources as well as counselor were shown the door Thursday, according to CBS News.

Many of those let go were on the building’s seventh floor — top-floor bigs — a symbolically important sign to the rest of the diplomatic corps that their new boss has different priorities than the last one.

If there’s one place that needs to be cleaned up it’s the State Dept.

 

Speaking of the lying liars in the media…

 

Will a judge’s ruling Against CNN Make It Easier to Sue the Media?

Since they show such malice in their ‘mistakes’, I’d say they deserve it. Reckless disregard is one thing, they’re malicious.

I love this bit

Before Trump was elected president, we suggested that his threats necessitated a federal anti-SLAPP law.

Before Trump you might have had a chance to convince people the media weren’t being malicious and abusing their Constitutional protections, now everybody’s pointing and laughing and if all you assholes get sued out of existence you have only yourselves to blame.

I’m not really fer it, but I’m also not really agin it. Karma being a bitch can be very darn funny.

 

Three looks at Trump’s presser yesterday.

Trump Cheers His Own Epic Press-Conference Rant Against The Media!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

President Trump took a victory lap Friday morning, boasting about the kudos he received following his meandering press conference the day before…

Many critics noted how bizarre the 75-minute-long presser was, but conservative talker Limbaugh cheered the Republican president.

“Many Critics” screech no matter what he does.

But other members of the media were not as flattering about the presser,…

Yeah, the butthurt was epic.

 

The other look. Sorry media, this press conference played very differently with Trump’s supporters. (Do tell)

The president proved once again that he is the greatest show on Earth. Lions and tigers and elephants are kid stuff next to his high wire act.

Next time, the White House ought to sell popcorn.

If Trump started selling popcorn the deficit would be gone by June.

Trump’s detractors immediately panned the show as madness, but they missed the method behind it and proved they still don’t understand his appeal. Facing his first crisis in the Oval Office, he was unbowed in demonstrating his bare-knuckle intention to fight back…

In front of cameras, and using the assembled press corps as props, he conducted a televised revival meeting to remind his supporters that he is still the man they elected. Ticking off a lengthy list of executive orders and other actions he has taken, he displayed serious fealty to his campaign promises.

And they just cannot fucking understand that last bit. He’s actually doing what he promised the rubes!?!?!?!?!?! Doesn’t he know that’s not how things are done?

 

Speaking of butthurt and bias, Shep!

Shep, of course, is fresh off calling Trump a liar because he talked about illegal aliens voting, as you’d know if you read this blog. I ain’t looking for it.

“It is crazy what we are watching every day, it is absolutely crazy,” Smith said. “He keeps repeating ridiculous throwaway lines that are not true at all and sort of avoiding this issue of Russia as if we are some kind of fools for asking the question.”

As Paco says,

When you rant about not being a fool, the froth flying from your lips pretty much renders your claim null and void.

But then it wouldn’t be Shep!

 

 

EUnuch says,

European Commission President, Jean-Claude Juncker, claims that Brexit negotiations with the EU will be complex and take longer than the allotted two years.

Speaking on the sidelines at the international Munich Security Conference Junker added that Britain does not have the right to forge bilateral trade deals while still a member of the EU.

See Trump? That’s how you do it. Fuck Teh Peepul!

 

And if you don’t like your own voters?

Keeping a Brexit-like scenario in mind, commission wants the voting rights for migrants and refugees at par with German citizens in any future referendum.

I just don’t think they’re thinking that through. Sure their serfs are revolting, but do they really want to replace them with more splodey ones?

 

I don’t really believe this, I’m just linking for the first line.

Palestine is many things. A Roman name and a Cold War lie. Mostly it’s a justification for killing Jews.

Succinct and accurate. Perfect.

What we think of as “Palestinian” terrorism was a low-level conflict pursued by the Arab Socialist states in between their invasions of Israel. After several lost wars, the terrorism was all that remained. Egypt, Syria and the USSR threw in the towel on actually destroying Israel with tanks and jets, but funding terrorism was cheap and low-risk. And the rewards were disproportionate to the cost.

For less than the price of a single jet fighter, Islamic terrorists could strike deep inside Israel while isolating the Jewish State internationally with demands for “negotiations” and “statehood.”

 

I just wish we had a competent, less-hatey media so that would discussed instead of just blatantly obvious. Of course, in EUnuchstan, saying stuff far more milquetoast will get you a hate-crimes trial, so it’s hard to talk about.

 

I’m so old I remember when the Dalai Lama was universally loved on college campuses!

Students at the University of California, San Diego are protesting an upcoming visit by the Dalai Lama – claiming the Tibetan leader is “oppressive”.

Seriously? Who’s he oppressing?

Chinese students are leading objections to the event,

Oh right, totally tolerant and peaceful murderous commies feel oppressed when people talk about their murderousness and commieness.

Send them back to fucking China. I hate apparatchiks for murderous commies taking advantage of our freedoms to try to deny it for others.

 

And who can forget Obama letting the Dalai Lama know what Obama’s murderously commie friends think of him.

 

To spit on that guy for murderous commies just makes me sick.

Look at the smile. He has all the class Obama doesn’t and more.

 

Al Gore Predicts End of World From Global Worming!!!!

Wait, that was an old one. HERE’S THE WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE LINK!!!!!!!

Wait, that’s another old one. HERE’S THE RIGHT ONE FROM TODAY!!!!!!

Shoot, wrong one. Here’s the right link. Geez, there sure are a lot of WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!! predictions from Gorequemada. Are we dead yet? Because I thought Hell would be less funny.

I love this line.

But it was science – not politics – that carried the day.

No really, they were talking about global warmmongering when they wrote that. I can’t even keep a straight face just cuttin’ n’ pastin’, I don’t think I’d be able to actually write that.

In the climate and health meeting held at The Carter Center, Gore steered clear of mentioning Trump. Instead, he stressed that climate changes could render parts of the Middle East – including some of the holiest cities on the planet – uninhabitable. It could also cause deadly health problems and reduce life expectancy. Those in poverty will be hardest hit, he said.

Fakenewswers refuse to ask him about his earlier, stupid, predictions and yet, we’re supposed to trust him and them because The Science!!!!!! Is Settled!!!!!!!!

 

Why didn’t Jets fans think of this?

I didn’t realize the Kazakhstan military had women helicopter pilots!

A lorry driver in Kazakhstan has captured the moment when a military helicopter landed on a highway, in order to ask for directions.

How progressive!

 

This is cool. A 3-D look at all the space junk flying around Earth. You can zoom in and out.
