I'm not concerned about "creating hard feelings" because those are already there. The worst part is that it will undermine the job of those who aren't as ill-tempered towards the US.
That would seem to consist of the some 75% of American Muslims (Q. 38; pg 170) who think the Quran is entirely the literal word of Allah, and that Muhammad is his Prophet (piss be upon him). And I expect the percentage would be substantially higher for those not already "aclimatized" to Western values. Fuck em, fuck em all.

Somewhat apropos of which:

Canons (sic) to the left of us, canons to the right.

Imagine you are a Republican hack in Congress. You held your nose & backed trump as party obligation/ didnt even believe he'd win. Now you dont know if your own constituents are all-in for Trump/ or would actually prefer a more business as usual GOP.

Which way do you lean next, to protect your own job? Ride the trump train/ or distance yourself?

Let's say you Do want to distance yourself. How?

When you look over at the center & left... they're "giving no quarter"... they're not-just equating you with trump, but they're calling your constituents nazis. Any room for you in that coalition?

Fer Glub's sake! All of these are true and accurate meanings:

1. Cast down the gauntlet (ie armoured glove) - to make a challenge. Akin to a gentle slap on the cheek with one's lilac coloured (yet violet scented, in all likelihood) glove when wishing to issue a challenge for a duel.
2. Throw your hat in the ring - to express a desire to enter a contest of wit, will or strength. What Terry ought to have done if he really wanted to be a contender.
3. Throw in the towel - to admit defeat, and the ring into which it is thrown is implicit, perhaps because it will be the seconds of the one-time contender who realise they cannot revive him for a little more brain damage in the next round.

As an example of #2, I'm sure you all recall the first official American squadron to become active on the western front in 1917, as their emblem was this:

The above is inaccurate. The Obama administration temporarily slowed down the processing of immigration applications from people in those countries - it never stopped people lawfully living in the U.S. from returning home from overseas trips, nor prevented the arrival of people already accepted for immigration.

Shatterface wrote:Brexit and Trump aren't the same thing.

Nobody voted for Trump because laws in the US were being decided by the rest of the Americas.

Nobody voted for Brexit because they wanted Nigel Farage as Prime Minister.
The similarity is pandering to base instincts and "easy solutions". Giving the proletariat what they think they want and not what they need.
And the "Remoaners" and HRC/Obama are just the people to tell "the proletariat" exactly what they need? Including telling them "no back-talking to your betters"? Horse crap.

In the case of Trump, it seems many people voted for him because they were fed up with "rape-and-pillage" globalism, although one might suggest that traditional empires - UK and American in particular - are just having the tables turned on them. But that doesn't obviate the criticisms by their traditional colonies, nor preclude their use by the UK and America. Globalism is no panacea, and is just as susceptible to abuse as is nationalism and colonialism. You might check out: When and Why Nationalism Beats Globalism by Jonathan Haidt. And all of that is entirely separate from the fucking deluded and criminally negligent claim by Clinton and Obama that "Islam is a religion of peace".

As for Brexit, it seems rather clear that the EU was and is decidedly antidemocratic if not fascistic (Junker - LOL); as Gorbachev put it:
The most puzzling development in politics during the last decade is the apparent determination of Western European leaders to re-create the Soviet Union in Western Europe.
Merkel and her East German perspective might have had something to do with that ...

Here you go. All the time consuming work involved in creating a blog has now been eliminated:
https://www.blogger.com
or
https://wordpress.com/learn-more/?v=blog

The bulk of the effort is in writing the blog posts. And you are already doing that. Nothing prevents you from continuing to hang out here and finding more inspiration for your writing. But a blog may help you find a more receptive audience. Or at least, if you get a sufficiently sized audience, you have a chance of whatever gems you come up with getting passed around.
Thanks for the info; definitely leaning more towards the wordpress platform ("The power of the press belongs to those who own one. And now with WordPress, everyone can!"); not impressed by Blogger's user interface though they may have changed, although that might have been partly a browser issue.

Aneris my boy is back from Berlin. Now he is a fan.

Had a good debate where I suggested German hipster horror over the holocaust should be squared away. He disagreed on the basis that shared history still impacting the world needed to be processed.


Anyway. You must be royally shitted that PZ and his ilk have appropriated Nazi angst.

That debunk needs a debunk. For example, the lcaim that there was no-such Obama ban... evidenced by there-being not a single month in which zero people from the terrorist country were let-in.... Trump's ban will also meet that standard of not-existing, 90 days from now!

Or the claim that Obama's ban-- which supposedly doesnt exist-- is also legit/ because it was in response to a real terror threat. But Trump's ban is in response to nothing because... refugee terror attacks in Europe... don't count?? WaPo needs to receive Pinocchio noses/ not issue them.

This debunk even unearthed new similarities, such as people being pulled off flights due to Obama's action.

Trump's reference to Obama doing something-similar is reasonable response to panic-mongers who want to pretend this is some unprecedented abuse of power/ rather than a mere policy shift they don't like.

Heh. Looks like PETA has been taking notes from Anita Sarkeesian. I wonder if they are planning to release a video series soon called "tropes vs. animals in tabletop war games".

On a separate note, that organization is totally going down A+ style. Eventually one of their elder statesmen is going to have a realization that PETA's advocacy is always focused on lovable majestic vertebrate organisms, and never on less glamorous but equally deserving species like tapeworms or methicillin resistant staph aureus. About half of them will think this is the most enlightened thing they've ever heard, and there will be a huge civil war.

Trump’s 2020 campaign has kicked off – and Starbucks seem to be running it

I am no fan of Donald Trump, but I can stand far enough back from his presidency to see that many of his critics are inadvertently already doing his re-election campaign for him. Today, Starbucks has reacted to Trump’s US travel ban on citizens of seven Middle Eastern and African countries by defiantly saying that it will go out and hire 10,000 refugees.

Can the coffee chain not see that this is exactly the sort of thing which attracts America’s white poor to Donald Trump: the suspicion that they are being overlooked in favour of cheap labour from abroad? In Starbucks’ case it isn’t just a suspicion – it has effectively confirmed that it wants to discriminate against American workers. If you are deliberately favouring refugees it inevitably means that you are going to disfavour other job applicants. Starbucks might think it can earn some virtue points by adopting such a recruitment policy, but it isn’t going to go down well in the US rustbelt if Somalians are going to be hired ahead of local workers who are desperate for any employment they can get.

So how is she going to do her youtube videos?
Can she video and send it in over her phone? Do it really crappy and go all victimlike and she can get extra computer money easily. This is important shit, not like a crappy lolsuit. :roll: :cry:

Well, that's just fucked.

So essentially, if you're from the wrong place (originally), you're trapped in the US unless you're prepared to lose the life you've made for yourself? No holidays abroad, no visiting friends or family, no business trips outside the states etc.

I can only hope that this is a "teething" issue and it'll be ironed out (rapidly) in due course.

Don't get me wrong, I'm against complete "free movement of people" but this appears to be (almost) the opposite extreme.
I was "trapped" in the US for 18 months while my Green Card was adjudicated. Because of something in my background, if I had left the US at any time after the application was submitted, I would not have been able to return unless there was a positive adjudication.

Vet bills can mount up pretty quick. Not the best thing to take on financial responsibilities like pets if you don't have your shit in order.

That would be like burning the furniture to stay warm.

Yep, sounds like her.

Line up, gentlemen. The TAM Party Chick might be back in business.

Yup, a few minutes after posting that, I noticed several comments (on the article itself) saying the same thing. However, being an idle shitposter, I thought "fuck it" and didn't bother correcting myself.

It's still pretty funny though...

Starbucks may not have a good grasp on political strategy. But they sure know how to appeal to their customers.

Watson is what we call a "triple bagger" - a bag on your dick, a bag over her head and a bag over your own in case hers falls off.

Just saying...

The way that joke goes, is one for her head, one for your head in case hers falls off, and one to throw up in if both fall off.

There's no way in Hell I'd go bare-back with Watson.

Fuck. That.

We'll compromise then, she's a quad-bagger.

This is like some kind of absurdist comedy: If you need an incantation to fend off Asian racists, just say anything in Arabic.

I'm still not sure, but I love this cunt who used the hashtag to get more tips. Does anyone tip at Starbucks?

So, Donald has fired the Attorney General. This is starting to get interesting.

Maybe Starbucks should concentrate on paying back the tax they owe before signaling their virtue.
