    @George-K said in Argh….: LOL. You should have taken photos. In two weeks, you'll be past the "homeless bum" look; fear not. I’ve always had a quick growing beard. Tomorrow won’t be pretty, by Monday I’ll have the Miami Vice stubble going on, and the beard will be back by Saturday. I do regret not letting it go during the first months of COVID to shoot for a truly epic beard…

    I still can’t wrap my head around what this looks like in the future. I do like to believe that as a whole we will see countries and societies put an end to puberty blockers and prescribing 12 year olds to a lifetime of HRT. I also think you will see more and more detransitioners, and a decade from now those numbers will effectively kill off most but not all of the trans movement. I think you will also see a slew of lawsuits against trans medical clinics and healthcare providers that started the journey… But how far does it go or should it go? Are the schools going to be cleared of the idiot teachers and administrators that promoted this crap to kids? It feels like an entire generation of teachers have been brainwashed with this crap, and I don’t think that goes away. Beyond that, you also have schools that feel it’s permissible, good, and right to keep information health and wellness information from the kids parents, placing the teachers above the parents in decisions involving their children. This is such an abhorrent breach of the trust and the compact between parents and education that I honestly can’t see how that is fixed. And what about parents? Yeah, it seems that a lot of them were duped by this whole “Dead Daughter - Living Son” argument, but a lot of them weren’t. A lot of them rejoiced in the mental and physical disfigurement of their kids. Do we see criminal charges filed? Custody removed? This is a huge frigging mess without any good path forward.

    I've probably told this story before, but I had an employee who showed up at the head office 35 miles from where we both worked to tell them he was quitting after working a solid 6 weeks for me. I only found out about it 4 hours later when my boss told me. The hilarious thing was that a few years later he applied to work at a different location for the same company, presumably thinking nobody would know, but they told me. I begged them to interview him and invite me to attend, but they weren't having any of it.

    I just found the juxtaposition of "shaman" and Dr. House to be hysterical. Can you imagine House talking about a shaman?

    The crazies on the left are mainstream, the crazies on the right are marginalized parts of an already marginalized larger group. Both sides are equal though.

    apparently not. he wasn't even charged. From Wiki: On 25 June 2003, British newspaper the Daily Mirror reported that al-Sahhaf had been captured by coalition troops at a roadblock in Baghdad.[4] The report was not confirmed by military authorities and was denied by al-Sahhaf's family through Abu Dhabi TV. The next day, al-Sahhaf recorded an interview for Dubai-based news channel al-Arabiya.[10] He was reportedly paid as much as US$200,000 for the television interview, during which he appeared very withdrawn, in contrast with the bombastic persona he projected during the war. Many of his answers consisted of a simple "yes" or "no". He refused to speculate on the causes of the downfall of the Iraqi government and answered only "history will tell" when asked if video clips purporting to prove that Saddam Hussein was alive were genuine, amid speculation at that time that Hussein had been killed during the war. His fame quickly evaporated as the war continued into the insurgency phase; from the middle of 2003 onward, he faded from the public spotlight, and was no longer a figure in the war. Al-Sahhaf said that he had surrendered to United States forces, had been interrogated by them and then released.[11][12] He was not charged for his role in Saddam Hussein's government.[12] In March 2008, it was reported by The Times that al-Sahhaf was living in the United Arab Emirates.

    @Jolly said in Tucker goes there...: Doesn't seem to bother Jon or Phibes. Are they now officially geezers? I never post about that stuff. Doesn’t mean I agree with it. The fact that I think TuCa is a walking colostomy bag doesn’t mean I agree with everything he dislikes either.

    I wonder if the family would have preferred that he just hanged himself in the garage or basement for one of them to find a few days later? As for the author, Nicole Winfield, there is nothing short of outlawing euthanasia that she would support. It’s a matter of faith on her part: https://berkleycenter.georgetown.edu/people/nicole-winfield I at least respect and understand her point of view. I just do not agree with it entirely. FYI the law is under review at the moment.
