There have been many comments regarding the birth of E Musk's 13th child. Many expressed amazement he could find a partner for sex. I mentioned that sex need not be involved. Turns out I was right. The methodology for having this baby is evocative of the process Teapot used on his roaches in EndEarthers (Teapot's Empire). She allowed him to imprergnate her artificially and manipulate the fetus.

BREAKING!‼️
ICE has now started releasing some of those detained back into the U.S. because of a lack of resources.
And that’s because Donald Trump never had an actual plan.
He only has concepts of a plan
Comedian Bill Burr went on a profanity-laced rant in which he blamed billionaires for people's suffering and demanded that they be put down "like f---ing rabid dogs" during an episode of his 'Monday Morning Podcast.'
Postmaster General Louis DeJoy is planning to step down from his role, and is calling on the Postal Service Board of Governors to start looking for his successor.
Not so long ago I would have welcomed this. Now I'm worried about what kind of jerk will replace him.
I've been seeing posts that suggest all or most of the gold in Fort Knox is non-existent. I wonder how much truth is in that.
The most worrisome Trump story I've seen says they have begun replacing generals. Likely targeting the ones who would step in to stop his move to dictatorship. All I can suggest is they are waiting too long to act and are losing the opportunity.
Health official examining your meal. "Not enough paraquat." Takes the dish to the kitchen and shortly returns it. As he prepares to leave he adds, "Also I am a representative of these law firms and insurance companies. Call us when you get sick."

It's not enough to read Marx and Lenin.
You have to drain all the bigotry out of your system, and books can't do that for you.
On this date in 1976, "The Front" was released.
Because of the blacklist, a number of artists, writers, directors and others were rendered unemployable, having been accused of subversive political activities in support of Communism or of being Communists themselves. Several people involved in the making of the film—including screenwriter Walter Bernstein, director Martin Ritt, and actors Zero Mostel, Herschel Bernardi, and Lloyd Gough—had been blacklisted. (The name of each in the closing credits is followed by "Blacklisted 19--" and the relevant year.) Bernstein was listed after being named in the Red Channels journal that identified alleged Communists and Communist sympathizers.
The movie draws from real life incidents in its depiction of the characters. A scene in which Hecky (played by Mostel) goes to entertain at a mountain resort, and then is cheated out of part of his fee, is based on an incident described by Bernstein in his memoirs Inside Out: A Memoir of the Blacklist. In the book, Bernstein describes how Mostel came to entertain at the Concord Hotel in the Catskills, where he used to entertain as a rising comic because he desperately needed the money. The manager of the Concord promised him $500, but when he arrived, reduced that to $250, according to Bernstein. In the movie, Hecky has a violent scene when, after the performance, he learns he has been cheated. In real life, Mostel was told before the performance and acted out his hostility during the performance by cursing at the customers, who thought it was part of the act.
Hecky Brown, and his suicide, was based on blacklisted actor Philip Loeb, a personal friend of Mostel who was investigated by HUAC and fired from his leading role in the television series "The Goldbergs" in 1951. He committed suicide in 1955. Mostel personally was motivated to participate in the project because he wanted to educate future generation of Americans. As he pointed out in his biography by Jared Brown, "It's part of this country, and a lot of kids don't even realize that blacklisting ever existed." (Wikipedia)
@edgarblythe,
Stick your moralising where the Sun don't shine.
@izzythepush,
Morning, Izzy. Have a nice day.
@edgarblythe,
It's not morning over here, it's been afternoon for hours.
Stop being so US centric. (It's a form of prejudice.)

Israel is now publicly admitting that they don’t plan on returning the 660 Palestinian hostages that were due on Saturday morning.
It appears they only intended to get some of their hostages and now plan on tanking and abandoning the ceasefire.
They have violated virtually every part of the agreement.
Irony: They are considering arresting Joe Biden on genocide charges while Donald Trump is encouraging the continuation of the genocide.
Some are saying inflation is back. Others of us are claiming it never left.
@edgarblythe,
You were all for prosecuting Biden when he was president.
Trump has yet to meet the criteria for charges.
The ICC hasn't gone away and Biden is guilty as ****.

What's striking here, and this is something true not just of Hochul, that the goal goes beyond permanent Palestinian dispossession. The goal is cultural extinction, so that the very identity of being Palestinian is forever erased from the earth.

No one in their right mind thinks Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide. So, what is the only force on earth that is powerful enough to kill someone inside a U.S. prison and get away with it? And powerful enough to make sure neither party ever says anything about it?
