…and right now, more is better than none at all. Besides, this will tick off the Planned Parenthood baby killers – you do know that most Social Justice Warriors have no sense of humor, right? So, have a laugh at their expense – they basically gave us this meme. (H/T: Bookworm)
Or as Instapundit labeled it, “Springtime for Introverts“: …“Introversion,” Cain wrote, “is now [considered] a second-class personality trait, somewhere between a disappointment and a pathology.” Her book was a catalog of the ways in which society is designed around the pleasures and benefits of the extroverted: open floor plans in the workplace, team-building exercises everywhere, … Read more
[Welfare] states presuppose economic dynamism sufficient to generate investments, job creation, corporate profits, and individuals’ incomes from which come tax revenues needed to fund entitlements. But welfare states produce in citizens an entitlement mentality and a low pain threshold. That mentality inflames appetites for more entitlements, broadly construed to include all government benefits and protections … Read more
Grokster Ed has been doing yeoman’s work in applying the Charles Murray / IHME model that is being used to set governmental policy (yesterday’s, for example, is here). A number of people are noticing that, just like the climate models (including the favs of the UN’s IPCC), they are running “hot” in that they are … Read more
I watch Fredo’s brother’s, NY Gov. Cuomo, presser today on Fox (turning what should have been a State level event into a national one). It basically was a smaller copy of the daily Presidential / Coronavirus Task Force presser generally held at 5:30pm (Steve is doing the yeoman’s work at having posts up where you … Read more
Reformatted, emphasis mine: What does education look like in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic? At the K-12 level, you’ve got problems. At the collegiate level, you’ve got existential problems. School is out for the year in most locales. More innovative districts are retooling like crazy and trying to do online classes. Parents are looking for cheap … Read more
I have had this video for a long time and just never had the right time or need to post it until now.
(reformatted, emphasis mine): The FBI’s March NICS background data for march was released yesterday and it was every bit as horrific as the Civilian Disarmament Industrial Complex feared it would be. The adjusted background check data quantified what we’ve all seen in the photos of Americans lining up — sometimes for hours — outside of gun … Read more
The United States was ranked as the best-prepared country for a pandemic in late 2019 by a Johns Hopkins study.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who … Read more
Once again, we see that Leftists don’t want Freedom of Speech and Ideas. They hate the idea that anyone is allowed to say what they want ESPECIALLY when it goes against their agenda, narrative, or beliefs. Just ask NH State Rep Jan Schmidt (D-Nashua) about this as she has actively done so.
Yep, that’s right – World Backup Day ////// Who knew there was such a thing? Anyways, I did mine – at 2am this morning. I’ve got a lot of data so it takes a lot of time but every (well, almost every) week, I do a full backup. If I’m doing software development, it’s … Read more
It’s about time! New Hampshire is finally spitting out stats on the China Flu epidemic at the town level. Data is provided for every town in the state with towns with Coos County being the only one with no known cases.
I’m thinking of what the few gun shop sales folks I have dealt with would have done or said if such an over-condescending, self-arrogant guy came into their dealerships and uttered something similar to the meme above.
Sure, it’s old news that US Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi came back from her San Fran vacation and blew up what was then a rare bipartisan effort to get a coronavirus stimulus bill.
Again, not having much time for blogging lately (although this makes for two nights in a row!), my “stack of stuff” is a few hundred tabs large at this point. This from DCE at Weekend Pundit reminded me of the topic:
It also shows that fences make for very good neighbors. Something we’re seeing all over the place lately. It is a rather hypocritical stance for some of these Democrat governors that are “stalking” runaways from NJ and NY – just ask RI Governor Gina Raimondo that is now going after “second homers” traveling to RI … Read more
Progressives and Socialists (e.g., those that despise our Founding Principles (else why do they never give up in trying to destroy them?)) always look to Government for answers (and always to the most Centralized version of such)? The rest of us that haven’t lost that sense of “rugged individualism” (again, also despised by our betters) … Read more
Vocalists who sing in recording studios aren’t immune from the coronavirus carnage. In Nashville, among the biggest music meccas in America, background singers have to practice social distancing and self-isolation just like everyone else. So what do these vocalists do when COVID-19 prevents them from coming together — and likely missing out on performing opportunities they’d … Read more
People’s refusal to panic has been a great source of frustration for the establishment in recent years. ‘The planet is burning’, they lie, in relation to climate change, and yet we do not weep or wail or even pay very much attention. ‘I want you to panic’, instructs the newest mouthpiece of green apocalypticism, Greta … Read more
