The Importance of an Education

Humor 1 Minute

Imagine making the difficult decision to adorn your body with a tattoo. I personally quilt, so I know what it feels like to relentlessly stab my finger multiple times during an hour or so.  But after a while, your fingers develop hardened pads that make the hobby so much more enjoyable. A tattoo, while similar, is on a totally other level.

But if you’re game, and determined to emblazon your body with a mostly permanent design or saying, take my advice.  Make sure your tattoo artist can SPELL.

Because even if you’re awesome…

…you don’t want any regrets…

Make sure you…

because…

So, rage against the man…

…or proclaim your loyalty…

…show your strength…

…let the world know who you are…

…just make sure it’s spelled properly.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILL!!!!!

        1. Thanks! Gotta make a run for cracked corn. There’s three duck moms (so far) with 17 ducklings (so far) coming around to be fed.
          Between hawks, owls, snapping turtles, coyotes it’s a wonder that any survive!

          1. whoa…that’s a lot of mouths to feed!!

            we had a similar situation years ago–a mama turkey was roaming over the yard with countless little furballs following her…by the following week, there were half as many…and after that just 2
            the foxes were plentiful and fatter that year

          2. funny story…before we moved here we lived in a town but our house backed up to eh neighbor’s pond and he had woods beyond that. we saw turkeys one afternoon and the kids (around 10 at the time) asked if they could feed them. I laughed and said i think they eat corn…so they grabbed a CAN of niblets, opened it and ran outside.
            I nearly peed my pants…

            2. By fall in past years, we’ve had as many as 35+ ducks hanging around to be fed.
              If we lived in a more rural area, people at Menards would wonder if we aren’t running a still with all the cracked corn we go thru!

    Martin Luther King gets a single day.

    Juneteenth gets a single day.

    Christopher Columbus gets a single day, in some states.

    Indigenous people get a single day, in some states.

    George Washington gets a single day and he shares it with 45 other people.

    Jesus gets two days and he literally died for our sins.

    But, if you are a member of the LGBTQ community, you get A FULL MONTH on the calendar.

    I’m sorry, but being attracted to the same sex just doesn’t carry the same weight as discovering America, being the first President of our union, or saving all of humanity.

    Mark my words, one day we will all look back on this period in our history and hang our heads in shame for the emphasis that we’ve put on carpet-munching and butt-sex.

      Happening Now: Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is being sued by conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation for refusing to hand over records he claims he lost, even though he’s prosecuting trump for a record keeping violation!

      The Heritage Foundation said they believe Bragg was coordinating and communicating with Trumps political opponents to weaponize the justice system against him. They filed a FOIL request which by law he’s supposed to produce. They’re also requesting communications he had with “white collar” law firms who helped find the charges.

      If it wasn’t for double standards democrats wouldn’t have any standards at all!

    Julie Kelly has a thread on the Trump documents. NARA = National Archives and Records Administration. PRA = Presidential Records Act. There are illustrative portions of testimony within the tweets.

    Just a reminder how this whole thing started.

    William Bosanko. the very self-important CEO of NARA, told House Intel what triggered their inquiry into missing presidential records was the fact Trump didn’t give them the transition letter from Obama and letter from Kim Jong Un.

    Incredible.

    _____

    Bosanko then claimed there was a list of missing items. When pressed by Rep. Stefanik for the list, he said there wasn’t one. Kept referring to 2 letters 😂

    _____

    Bosanko also tried to evade answering questions about specificity of “missing” Trump records.

    DOJ “put him on notice” that the matter was under investigation:

    _____

    Bosanko uses the ruse of Obama/Kim letters to warn Team Trump they are violating PRA. Instead of telling NARA to pound sand, the very uncooperative Team Trump hands over 15 boxes to NARA.

    Bosanko then claims to have found classified material.

    Refers matter to DOJ thru IG.

    _____

    He then admits it is the FIRST TIME he’s referred a former president (my guess is first time ever) to DOJ for a criminal investigation. Of course he did so for Biden and Pence as a CYA.

    _____

    After admitting Trump probably did not pack the boxes (no duh) and it’s a rush job after a defeat, Bosanko says he wasn’t notified the boxes contained classified documents. Because they either weren’t (which I am assuming) or Team Trump didn’t know either. How is this a crime?

    Just a reminder how this whole thing started.

  29. WTH is WRONG with people?!?!? I do NOT understand how any living being could find ANY entertainment value in such deviant actions!!!!
    Warning: This article contains disturbing content

    EXCERPT: “A year-long BBC investigation has uncovered a sadistic global monkey torture ring stretching from Indonesia to the United States. The World Service found hundreds of customers in the US, UK and elsewhere paying Indonesians to torture and kill baby long-tailed macaques on film. The torture ring began life on YouTube, before moving to private groups on the encrypted messaging app Telegram. Police are now pursuing the buyers and several arrests have already been made.
    —————-
    The BBC tracked down both the torturers in Indonesia, and distributors and buyers in the US, and gained access to an international law enforcement effort to bring them to justice. At least 20 people are now under investigation globally, including three women living in the UK who were arrested by police last year and released under investigation, and one man in the US state of Oregon who was indicted last week.

    Mike McCartney, a key video distributor in the US known by his screen name, “The Torture King”, agreed to speak to the BBC – and described the moment he joined his first Telegram monkey torture group. “They had a poll set up,” McCartney said. “Do you want a hammer involved? Do you want pliers involved? Do you want a screwdriver?” The resulting video was “the most grotesque thing I have ever seen,” he said.
    [NF: And this sick bastard has a Trump 2020 flag hanging!!! THIS Trump fan disavows this evil fuck!!! WHY WERE YOU DISTRIBUTING IT??!!??]

    (“The Torture King” at home in Virginia. “It went from baby bottle teasing to fingers being snipped off,” he said)

    McCartney, a former motorcycle gang member who spent time in prison before entering the monkey torture world, ended up running several Telegram groups in which hardcore torture enthusiasts distributed videos. “It’s no different than drug money,” he said. “Drug money comes from dirty hands, this money comes from bloody hands.”

    The BBC also identified two other key suspects who are now being investigated by the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) – Stacey Storey, a grandmother in her 40s from Alabama who was known in the community as “Sadistic”, and a ringleader known as “Mr Ape” – whose real name we cannot reveal for safety reasons. “Mr Ape” confessed in an interview with the BBC that he had been responsible for the deaths of at least four monkeys and the torture of many more. He had commissioned “extremely brutal” videos, he said.

    Storey’s phone was seized by Department of Homeland Security agents, who found nearly 100 torture videos, as well as evidence that she had paid for the creation of some of the most extreme videos produced. According to police sources, Storey was active in a torture group as recently as earlier this month. Approached by the BBC in Alabama in January, Storey claimed that she had been hacked and declined to comment on the allegations in detail.”

  32. ENTIRE ARTICLE @ JustTheNews: “Texas GOP Gov. Greg Abbott has signed a bill that mandates all Texas schools have armed security. The Republican governor signed the bill into law Tuesday, and it set to go into effect Sept. 1. The new law would give $330 million to build security centers on campuses and will strengthen the state’s school safety center, a local Texas outlet reports. The law also requires annual audits of school protocol and has all staff undergo mental health training.

    Some residents say that this law is a great step in increasing protection for students in schools. “I think if we have the good guys armed, I think it would minimize deaths,” San Antonio resident April Reyna said in an interview with KSAT.”

    “Latest Ratings Crash Shows the Fox News Implosion Is Even More Glorious Than Most Realize–You probably knew it was bad. You may not know just how bad things have gotten in the last week at Fox News.”
    JD RUCKER
    JUN 19, 2023

    ENTIRE ARTICLE: “Fox News received the worst ratings news it has ever experienced on Friday, marking the continued implosion of the previously top-rated cable news channel. As Dailywire’s Matt Walsh revealed on Facebook, their trajectory is likely worse than most even realize.

    ‘For 120 straight weeks, Fox News was the most-watched cable news network in primetime. Its main competitors, MSNBC and CNN, never came close. In the key advertising demographic — people between the ages of 25 and 54 — Fox News was the undisputed leader. But last week, after nearly two months of declining ratings following the ouster of Tucker Carlson, Fox News’ streak came to an abrupt and very unceremonious end. Last Friday, Fox News recorded its worst performance in primetime in the network’s history. Just 109,000 people between the ages of 25 to 54 tuned into Tucker Carlson’s old 8pm time slot, to watch the replacement show “Fox News Tonight.”

    How bad is that? To put it in context, “Fox News Tonight” was ranked 41st out of all cable news shows on Friday. This is the time slot that used to routinely be ranked number one. Now YouTube streams of people playing with Legos get more viewers. And keep in mind — Fox News attracted those 109,000 viewers on a very busy news night, after the announcement of Donald Trump’s indictment. Not many people cared what Fox News anchors had to say about the indictment of a presidential frontrunner.

    Whatever you make of that, it’s clear that the implosion of Fox News is well underway. And it’s showing no signs of stopping. Last week, as Tucker discussed on his Twitter show Thursday, Fox News executives publicly condemned a veteran producer who wrote a banner criticizing Joe Biden. Five years ago, the banner wouldn’t have attracted any attention whatsoever. But under the current leadership at Fox News, it led to the producer leaving the network within 48 hours.

    That banner is the most interesting thing that’s happened in that time slot for about two months, so of course Fox News cracked down on it. What’s happening at Fox feels familiar. The network is on the same trajectory we saw with Bud Light, then Target. Fox News executives, for some reason, are destroying their own product, and now they’ve lost the trust of their customer base.’

    Fox News Is Worse Than Anheuser-Busch and Target–For some conservatives, the exodus from Fox News began years ago. Others, including me, stopped watching following the 2020 election. Most who have abandoned the network took the firing of Tucker Carlson as the last straw. But there are more people to prompt to leave, and that prompting starts with us.

    I’m not the first and I won’t be the last to call on patriots to stop watching Fox News. There are many reasons, but the biggest in my book is that they are controlled opposition. They work on behalf of the UniParty Swamp which itself answers to the Globalist Elite Cabal. That makes their crimes exponentially worse than Anheuser-Busch who hired the wrong spokesperson. It makes Fox News far more dangerous than Target or other retail stores that sell LGBTQIA+ supremacy products.

    Fox News is willfully misleading Americans. They have been doing so for some time, working as controlled opposition by sprinkling globalist propaganda in with their occasional moments of ideological clarity. They didn’t like Tucker Carlson. They don’t like any of the current hosts who are marginally patriotic or who embrace the truth. They tolerate the occasional truth as a means to entice people into absorbing the propaganda they deliver.

    Fox News does the bidding of Big Pharma. They work on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party. They cover for George Soros, Klaus Schwab, and Bill Gates. In short, the network operates as an organization that must be considered the enemy of the people.

    Please boycott them if you haven’t already. They’re irredeemable. Does that mean running off to CNN or any of the leftist outlets? No. Newsmax and One America News are better options. There is also a burgeoning industry of conservative news outlets that should get attention. I’ve been trying to vet them out as much as possible and there is potential. There is hope. More on that later.”

      Hunter Biden’s plea deal is a classic diversion:

      ‘Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden has agreed to plead guilty to federal criminal tax charges, a court filing Tuesday revealed.

      ‘Hunter Biden also has agreed to enter a so-called pretrial diversion agreement in connection with a charge of possession of a firearm by a person who is a user or addict of illegal drugs, according to the filing.’

      https://www.cnbc.com/2023/06/20/hunter-biden-to-plead-guilty-to-federal-criminal-tax-charges.html

      What happened to the millions of foreign bribes to the Big Guy, thoroughly documented in Hunter’s laptop?

      This is the equivalent of pleading out to a littering charge for ejecting a shell casing on the sidewalk after shooting somebody.

      Once again, the twisted Bolshevik ‘attorney general’ Merrick Beria Garland dispenses rank partisan ‘justice.’

      Not only will it keep him out of jail, but the pre-trial agreement means that the charge will literally go away if Hunter stays out of trouble for a few years.

    1. Yummy! Just got down with my chores and closed up the house – 83 now….I was going to fill the jelly feeder first but when I opened the patio door and stepped out, the gray tabby darted away, towards the west end, then stopped to look at me when I called out. I stepped back onto the patio and grabbed the dish of food I’d left there and put it in the same place, just outside the pet door. I decided it would be best to let him eat in peace and not push too soon, so I took care of the front yard first. By the time I got around to the east gate, after watering the cantaloupe, he was done and slinking over to hide under the neighbor’s trailer in the alley. He will get used to it being in the same place over time and come to look for it.

    I’ll donate $50K if Paul Offit takes the entire CDC recommended vaccine schedule in one sitting
    He once said “healthy infants could safely get up to 100,000 vaccines at once.” It’s time to walk the talk. Take just one dose of each vaccine on the CDC childhood schedule in one sitting.

    https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/ill-donate-50k-if-paul-offit-takes

    Executive summary

    Dr. Paul Offit has said, “In theory, healthy infants could safely get up to 100,000 vaccines at once.” See this BMJ rapid response written by John Stone (Editor, Age of Autism) for the full story.

    It’s time for Paul to walk the talk.

    The offer

    I will donate $50K to a charity of Offit’s choice if he’ll take every vaccine listed on the CDC childhood vaccine schedule up to age 18 in one sitting.

    I’ll even make it easy

    Dr. Offit only has to take one dose of each vaccine. The dose level he should get should be weight adjusted based on the first dose on the schedule and the average weight of babies at that time.

    No aspiration is allowed on each needle poke since that is what the CDC recommends.

    I will specify the batch numbers for each vaccine. This shouldn’t be a problem for Paul since all batches are equally safe, as we all know. Those who claim there are deadly batches are just conspiracy theorists!

    If he has a headache after the shots, he must treat with Tylenol since that is perfectly safe to use. All those studies that show this dramatically increases the risk of autism are just misinformation since as we all know, vaccines don’t cause autism (despite all the evidence that vaccines cause autism).
