    @Jolly said in Respect: Pup Handler? https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/07/bidens-transgender-assistant-health-secretary-rachel-levine-gender-fluid-pup-handler-sam-brinton-attend-french-ambassadors-bastille-day-party/ Sam Brinton, one of the first “openly genderfluid individuals in federal government leadership,” was charged with felony theft last month after allegedly stealing a woman’s luggage at MSP Airport. The MIT grad went viral earlier this year when he announced his new role as the deputy assistant secretary of the Office of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the U.S. Department of Energy. “As one of if not the very first openly genderfluid individuals in federal government leadership, I was welcomed with open arms into the Department of Energy all the way up to the Secretary whom I shared the stage with in a Pride month celebration panel just today,” Brinton wrote on Twitter at the time. He said he is not a Biden appointee but instead was hired as a career employee in the Senior Executive Service. Brinton accepted the job in February and began in June, according to media reports. Prior to working in government, Brinton was an anti-conversion therapy activist who taught “Kink 101” workshops on college campuses, according to The National Pulse. A photo from one of these workshops shows Brinton in a dress as he stands over three males in leather dog masks. [image: Brinton2-1.jpg.webp] Brinton discussed his “pup play” fetish in a 2016 Metro Weekly article, The Pulse reports. “One of the hardest things about being a handler is that I’ve honestly had people ask, ‘Wait, you have sex with animals?’” Brinton said. “They believe it’s abusive, that it’s taking advantage of someone who may not be acting up to a level of human responsibility … The other misperception is that I have some really messed up background, like, did I have some horrible childhood trauma that made me like to have sex with animals?”

    The CEO's smile is that of a man unaccustomed to it. Maybe the profit margin will give him some practice.

    Yeah that's normal human psyche. This woke stuff is square peg round hole. And with something like pop cultural TDS, we saw the release of that tension as people who crave an outlet for their hate, found a socially encouraged outlet for it.

    Putin believed in his own mythology. Russians would be welcomed by Ukrainians with offerings of bread and salt. As a result there was no need for planning or anything resembling logistical support.

    @Klaus said in Milo: He was always over the top, but I wonder what made him go completely off the rails. Apparently, he interned with Margorie Taylor Green earlier this year. That might do it.

    I have tried several lights, I can't find one that works just right. I have 2 that look something like that, but they are kind of heavy and I can't quite get the light in a position where it shines on the page and is not in my face. When I move the gooseneck to a good position, it is extended so far from the page that it droops after a while. So I got this at Lowes: [image: 1669604259209-925dbfa6-5398-4a25-babb-7d64acd4f71e-image.png] https://www.lowes.com/pd/Homdec-LED-Desk-Lamp-with-On-Off-Switch-Study-Reading-Metal-Base-Table-Light/5013814579 It sits in front of and blocks part of the page, and the dots that you see on the lens of the light show up on the page - it is covered with dots. Your light looks like it has similar dots, do these show up on the sheet music? I'm starting to think that the right answer is a light that is wall or ceiling mounted.

    Watched the first two. Link to video High production values, and the actress who plays Wednesday is great. Zeta-Jones makes a short appearance in the 1st episode, then no more. Gomez is horribly miscast. Lurch is on for about 5 minutes. Picture a macabre version of a Hallmark Channel movie, and you'll get a sense of this show. It just tries too hard to be cute and nostalgic, while maintaining a smirking sense of discomfort. The best thing about the show is the CGI rendition of Thing. Haven't seen Fester. I'll give it one more, but it's probably...Nope.
