People are saying that Tim Pool is in an Asian first before an American and has his meth stash in his toque that he never takes off in public. /s He hates America and that is why he hates the rule of law being applied to the malignant narcissist grifter.

You might as well believe in alchemy.

Given that Williams hit his prime in the '70s and '80s when astrology and copious other New Age shit were standard beliefs among actors, his interest in Jung makes him a one eyed man in the land of the blind.

So that thing about Billy Dee Williams being gender fluid? Billy Dee Williams: "What the hell is 'gender fluid'?" He doesn't even know what it means. :lol: Also looks like Williams was just drunkenly riffing on Jungian male-female duality, and the author decided (perhaps because he's an idiot) to g...

I think intersection thinking is also part of it.

Former Twitter employees charged with spying for Saudi Arabia by digging into the accounts of kingdom critics

The question isn’t when did the culture war start. The issue is when and why did it accelerate into current form. It would probably be a mistake to look for a single magic bullet cause. Like most seemingly abrupt cultural changes, it was likely a confluence of factors in the loosely coupled dynamic...

Maybe the claim you recall was Hunter flying to China aboard the presidential jet, apparently just another blatant falsehood by pathological liar Trump. Nope, that's not a 'claim', it's an indisputable fact, as reported by NBC News from a reporter actually on Air Force Two with the Bidens on the tr...

No sane place wants to be a mini California, this is true, at least in terms of social policy. Wanting to do something about climate is not so crazy.

He confirmed the "leak". It gave the second source that allowed Novak to publish her name and give it credibility by your own assessment.

I don't understand how you chalk up the outcome of the investigation to partisanship. The investigation was done by Patrick Fitzgerald who was appointed by registered Republican James Comey.

Leaking covert agent Valerie Plame's identity is what got Scooter Libby into trouble. Except he didn't. The leaker was Richard Armitage. Libby was convicted of crimes related to lying to investigators about how he learned of Plame's CIA work, which had no known connection to the leak itself. But th...

While ostensibly an immigration issue, the timing of the crackdown on Canadians suggests that it may be more of a punitive response to Canada's retaliatory tariffs.

I do not know what to think of these horror stories published about Trump. I'm inclined to take them with a pinch of salt given all the other lies and hyperbole the liberal press is spewing.

Face to face with Maria Schriver, I only-vaguely recognized her as 'someone famous'. (Daughter of JFK, ex-wife of Schwarzenegger). Her deep-set eye sockets, coated in black make-up... I would have guessed daughter of Red Skull. Looks better on TV, tho. I recall a bit Norm MacDonald did in the '90s ...

She's an alcoholic; possibly mood or personality disorder, too. Race had nothing to do with it. Negligent homicide. Murder requires mens rea, which she did not possess, as she truly believed she was in her own apartment. From the reporting on the trial, the prosecutors did actually argue that Guyge...

I couldn't have been clearer in my post that I thought this was a bad shoot anyway, and Slager's actions certainly merited significant jail time. He's just not guilty of murder. That's what Matt "endorsed", not that gunning down a fleeing man was justified. He's not guilty of murder according to yo...

Also don't forget "Frame 394", produced by Fat Cracka and Cruella de Vil, an absurd attempt to justify gunning down a fleeing man. (You seemed to endorse it.) That's about as dishonest an interpretation as I can imagine, and I have to assume you didn't watch the doc and just assumed what its conten...

I don't have much time for children bitching about previous generations either. That's the entire point. Children aren't supposed to tell adults they're abject failures.

One of the earliest and most egregious Title IX kangaroo court cases has ended in a victorious lawsuit. The only problem is the size of the judgement: about $100K, kept low largely due to the Circuit Court Judge keeping out some of the most damning evidence, probably in contravention to the Appeals ...

Interesting autoethnographic essay regarding breaking out of the 'woke' dogma bubble: Nuance: a love story A sample: Words like “mansplaining” and “gaslighting” were suddenly in heavy rotation, often invoked with such elasticity as to render them nearly meaningless.

Whatever climate change activists claim has absolutely nothing to do with the science... I certainly agree with this.

Just like it's impossible to say man didn't go to the moon without a hoax being necessarily implied, it's also impossible to assert there's been no climate change without implying a hoax.

Cato's Patrick Michaels is usually held up as one of those anti-alarmists just looking for truth, but it's obvious that his game is to discredit climate research and he doesn't care if he has to misrepresent research papers and scrub inconvenient data. One of his most notable examples is where he t...

She quite categorically states that she doesn't believe that the world is going to end.

She’s slightly right of center on many key issues and to liberals, that makes her a Nazi. Libertarians, like Tucker Carlson, love her. She’s been on his show several times. That alone makes her persona non grata. To me, she seems to at least try to attack issues with common sense, which is rare in ...

An honest question for Merkins. Why is Gabbard getting so little support?

Most accurate 2020 US Presidential election analysis I've seen so far.

Why does your graph stop at 2000? To avoid showing the marked decrease in solar activity since then? The data wasn't truncated, if that's what you're asking. The graph is from Wikipedia and is based on data from published papers from the '90s, hence nothing beyond 2000. As I mentioned, the reduced ...

What is known from GCR measurements, solar activity and possibly other established facts is that the warming we have been seeing over the last fifty years or so is definitely not due to GCR. The standard rebuttal to Shaviv's claim is that solar activity has declined since the mid-80's while tempera...

It's a pity any discussion about climate change policy inevitable degrades into whether it's human's fault and actually happening. One can agree it's happening and is human's fault and still disagree about the best course of action. Right. Multiple questions seem to get conflated: Is the climate wa...

The effect of cosmic rays on climate is through seeding of clouds by nucleation of particles. There are so many other sources of cloud seeding particles that the potential effect of ionisation by cosmic rays is probably negligible. Shaviv's recreation of the historical cosmic radiation record makes...

The evidence for the link between solar activity, cosmic rays, clouds, and temperature is primarily due to the published work of Nir Shaviv, Henrik Svensmark, Jan Veizer and others. Cosmic radiation incidence on earth does roughly follow the solar cycle, with times of greater solar activity corresp...

There's solid evidence that changing cosmic ray flux from the sun is responsible for some of the observed temperature increase over the last 40 years, there's no support for it being the primary driver, and at best it shares responsibility with anthropogenic CO2. And this solid evidence is? From wh...

This is a fascinating documentary, which presents a plausible case for why we ought not to worry about anthropogenic climate change. It seems to present a calm and reasonable argument (save for an overly dramatic intro) for solar activity causing temperature variations, with changes in CO2 followin...

Reminder apropos of nothing that zero people were convicted of any crimes in six years of Clinton investigations.

Trump's failure to use his position to silence his enemies certainly hasn't been for lack of trying. Just ask Cohen.

It is certainly possible that the Dems will be shooting thrmselves in the foot.
