@mark said in Eject!: A photographer was going to photo the tractor but got a better shot... The word "photo", is a verb? My understanding is that you can verb nouns.

I have always wondered why the celebrities that have ventured into politics haven’t tried that route.

It might be a good idea to wait until next year where you would actually have a good looking car for your six figures [image: 1623084657614-f4089d4b-3e76-41aa-a3a7-989b5703ddf4-image.jpeg]

@george-k said in D-Day: Many of these photos I'd not seen... [image: 1623019424370-screen-shot-2021-06-06-at-5.38.35-pm.png] My uncle was a Machinist's Mate on an LST that day. Could conceivably be "in" this photo.

Sanctimonious douche bag John Oliver reads script penned by his sanctimonious douche bag writers in which Oliver pretends to have given the first thought to "the plight of Asian Americans" before it became fashionable to do so several months ago" Or Sanctimonious douche bag John Oliver reads script penned by his sanctimonious douche bag writers in which Oliver reminds us that Asians are a diverse group of different cultures and backgrounds, not all of whom are statistically successful. Douche bag writers fail to reflect on "white privilege" in those same terms. But I can't continue to watch this douche baggery so I'll have to leave it at two alternative titles. These "Daily Show" style shows on Comedy Central have exactly one purpose, to pander to the audience's self-satisfaction at being way better than all the ignorant people they have to share a country with. John Stewart has so much to answer for. We shouldn't be encouraging these douche bags, they are already the very worst of us.

@klaus said in Who Here has Gotten COVID shot?: I don't really give a damn about the vaccination, though. Beware, that marks you as selfish in the eyes of many. The social benefit of getting vaccinated should cause a decent person to care.

@copper said in RIP Linc: I probably watched the Mod Squad a couple times, I don't remember being a big fan of it. I remember it. A crime-fighting trio -- Linc, a woman played by an actress first name Peggy, and the cute white guy. I remember Linc being laid back, understated in his acting style.

@kluurs said in The filibuster: I, like most adults, do my absolute best not to act hypocritically even though as human beings we're pretty much destined to provide evidence of hypocrisy from time-to-time. Politicians seem immune from such the fear of being or being perceived as hypocritical. This is the post of the day week.

@copper turn on subtitles.

I was wrong. This wasn't a charter for a honeymoon, but as a retirement trip for a news anchor. But, these pictures....

@loki said in Don't piss off the Amazon driver: I have a hard time imagining how whatever happened was the fault of the Amazon driver. I also have a hard imagining how someone better off and older than another person decides to mouth off to that person. Of course i couldn’t hear what was said. A 67 year old woman who lives in an apartment is probably not too well off. What set off the Amazon driver was that the woman called her a bitch. I am sure the woman was pushy and not very polite about waiting for her package, and the driver pushed back, and it escalated to naughty words, which then escalated to an actual violent crime. What's not to understand?

Don't have a clue, but this one piqued my interest: [image: 815htcMl20L._AC_SL1500_.jpg] Ninja BN601 Professional Plus Food Processor 1000-Peak-Watts - $99/Amazon

@doctor-phibes said in America's Paper of Record v America's Paper of Record: @horace said in America's Paper of Record v America's Paper of Record: @doctor-phibes said in America's Paper of Record v America's Paper of Record: If a leftie comedy sight did this you guys would be posting pictures of fainting couches before I could say 'How dare you!' Not if the accusation was for stuff that gets people or media outlets banned from all social media, or that advertisers run screaming from. You want to equate this to fair play ribbing, but the point of a defamation suit is in the potential for economic damage. There's an obvious connection between this particular accusation and potential economic damage. Well, I think it's a bloody shame that they've resorted to this. If you want to be treated as an edgy, down-with-the-hip-folks, comedy website, your first reaction when somebody says something you don't like should not be to threaten a lawsuit. That's the action of a fat old bastard who isn't funny. By doing this, the Babylon Bee is revealing themselves. They're not edgy and funny. They're a bunch of guys who resort to lawyers because they're worried it might affect their stock value. Let the world be notified. If you want Phibes to think you're funny, you can not use legal avenues to defend against defamation by hugely influential media sources. Meanwhile, they're definitely funny, and edgy enough at least to be falsely accused by the Paper of Record of being a hard right disinformation site. And good luck when somebody sues you right back for making jokes about smelling hair essentially making you a pedophile, or something. I'm sure they'd have good luck with such a frivolous lawsuit brought against them. I hope they have good luck with this one they're bringing against the NYT, which is not frivolous within the context of the cancel culture of the left.
