Loved the cartoon. More, more!
And, yes, copyright is a two-edged sword. Ask the person who creates original content.
Since I only have 7 of them, I'm going to sprinkle them out slowly unless/until I get back into contact with Flapjax and we get it going again.
The main reason I got the Copyright was just to make sure I had some control over the DD "franchise". I also now "own" both the dot org and dot com URLs so it's pretty well established as "my" Intellectual Property.
No worries at the moment here of course, the whole concept hasn't taken off sufficiently to make it a target for theft anyhow.
Also Jb, first guess correct, BRING YOUR OWN FOOD.

I found Flapjax's email addy in one of my boxes and have emailed him to see if he wants to restart the Comic Strip. I do not know if he is still using the box, but it didn't come back as an invalid email addy so hopefully he is still using it.
I will let you guys know if I get a response. Keep your fingers crossed! :eusa_dance:

I will tell the Mod Squad here that I am developing all the New Charaters for the strip with this one. Flap doesn't know you all yet as well as he knew the Peak Oil characters from the old days, so it may take some time to get right.
Great cast of characters here though, and mostly I think you all will enjoy it when it gets done. Except Nobody, she will likely get pised off at me AGAIN, for the 50,000th time. LOL.

There was a strip that had my Peak Oil News And Message Board avatar, a dazed Wile E. Coyote. Obviously your "copyright" does not include all of the old strips that this site used to have.
Yeah, I am watching your happy ass. ;-)
CBX! Good to see you dude!
The Copyright is on all the strips that I wrote and Flapjax drew up. It is not part of the Peak Oil message board Copyrights, we just published them there.
However, if you have an objection to my using the strip that has your old Avatar in it, I won't use it.
Just to let you know also, none of this is making any money, I fund it all out of my own pocket.

It is an addiction. I teach a class to adults from time to time, and one of the participants described Facebook as "the work or Satan," referring to the amount of time it takes. The biggest problem is that it seems to be a substitute for real world interaction for many, who forget or never learn how to interact with real human beings...

aight...here it is. I'm sorry, I don't have a problem with gays. To each his own. But I got a problem with that. Two women lovers raising a daughter? No male influence? I mean this isn't a gay issue. This is a child psychology issue as well as the relevance of men in our society. I mean men aren't raising children any longer? Likewise with gay men. Women aren't raising sons anymore? WTF? It's madness.
So be gay, but don't bring another being into a confusing mess where death doesn't exist, nor polar opposites. It's madness. There are polarities for crying out loud. We've known that since we evolved into physical brains...or rather, as Kurt Vonnegut might say, devolved into.

Didn't wish to get your gander up Lucid, pretty much a traditionalist myself. Just thought it was good for a laugh.
Yeah it was, just had to say something about the underlying message. That's why I think George Carlin and Bill Hicks were the pentacle of stand up comedy. They wove a message into your routine. An important message. Here's my comic strip

Lesbians seem to have mental health problems disproportional to the population. Many have a big chip on their shoulder, they seem to be the ones who make it a choice after bad experiences with men or no men being interested in them. many lesbian couples have kids from their former hetero days. I saw one poor girl who was taken into state care living in an environment that made Little OJ with Bruno and buddies look like Christmas in Dickens.
Homersexual men are far more promiscuous than the general population. men have far higher sex drive and natural need to spread seed than women generally. look at the prostitution industry if you disagree. 99% women charging men the same hourly rate as a lawyer. Of the few male prostitutes most of those are for gays. This is why AIDS went through them like wildfire in the 80's. Most of the gay marriages approved where it has been legalised are open relationships like George Michael or Elton John.
Children have no organised lobby group. This is why assault of children is still tolerated. Sure, give your wife or asshole neighbor or coworker a "measured smack for guidance" and see if they or the cops appreciate your POV. Gay and lesbian lobby is powerful OTOH whose interests come first?
Notice this issue is never mentioned. The reference framing changed from Gay Marriage to Marriage Equality and suddenly public perception went from against to support for. Try saying "I do not support gay marriage", Now say "I do not support marriage equality" see.
Thats illuminati sheep herding social engineering. They do not feed you ANYTHING good for you, so dont kid yourself everything else they feed you is bad and this is good. These kids have a lifetime of trying to make sense of themselves. Modelling effeminate mannerisms as all boys model their male role model and then being hormonally hetero, after hoping to be gay to be just like dad/s?
Anonymous sperm donored are potential people with no rights, who become people with no right to know who they are. Adults urge to leave a legacy should be a distant second to the need to know who you are, but who considers that.
Trolleys of stacked babies crying in chinese orphanages, or african AIDS orphans following tourists around for a few cents, they would be better anywhere else with anyone than where they are. Allow single or married people of any sexual orientation to give them a better life. Funny how it takes 5 years and every test available and all sorts of insurance to keep in touch with the childs own roots and culture in order to be adopted by another race b ut at least the same order of attraction, but no such recognition for a kid in a gay or lesbian family to know and understand their own bloody fucking sexual orientation.

I live in SE Virginia, AKA Pat Robertson country, where "rural idiocy" has morphed into "suburban idiocy driving giant armored vehicles." Ken Cuccinnelli is the putative R nominee for Governor, ferchrissakes. His scales glisten on a night lit by moonlight. You live in Carolina. Similar, perhaps.
For all that, it's not the Stormfront/Christian Identity/Militant Mormon crowd. Armed to the teeth with bad weapons and worse ideas.
My thinking is thus: After TSHTF, after The Usual Suspects are rounded up, and the Big Ass Military has shot its wad, the usual strictures of social order will fail. Large pathes of the FSA become, in effect, Somalia-- government by warlord. Under those circumstances, you will either pay protection, contribute soldiers, or more likely get added to the clan. Perhaps peacefully, perhaps not. Rest assured your women and children will be added to the clan --you are not necessary. And for that matter, neither are the elders...
Am thinking the warlords are more likely to spring up among the armed-to-the-teeth-Obama's-Black-Helicopter crowd than among a group of hardy, peaceful souls practicing permaculture techniques. They will spring up everywher, sure. I'd just like them to be more along the lines of what you might find in a Kunstler novel than , say homegrown Nazis.
What most of us want, more than anything, is to find a place to Be LEFT THE FUCK ALONE. Not possible under the Total Surveillance State; probably not possible under Government by Warlord either.
Just one surly old man's opinion.

Really?
Democrat means liberal? Perhaps you've missed the fact that, the "HMO Full employment and Welfare Act" (Obamacare) notwithstanding, BHO has continued the most odious and unconstitutional of W's excesses. Plus cracked down on whistleblowers in a manner unseen in past times. And Hillary's husband, perhaps the most popular democrat extant, was a spectacular class traitor who gave us NAFTA, GATT, and welfare reform, all extreme right wing/globalist desiderata.
So don't tell me dems are liberals. They are, for the most part, craven lickspittle apparatchiks of the global banking order, as eager to fellate the next campaign donor as any republican congressman in an airport bathroom stall.
So the comment is ironic, and reflects the denial and belief system of most Democrats, who continue to believe that their party is "librul," when the opposition makes it so easy to not be batshit crazy. Easy to look reasonable when your opposition wages continuous class war against women, children, teachers, first responders, and anyone who makes a salary.
No TRULY liberal ideas get a hearing in this country anymore. There is an entire wing of political thought that can NEVER get a booking on a talk or interview show in the MSM.

Shit, LD, I'm not ruffled. I was just loosening up in the bullpen. When motivated I can bring the heat-- hence the sobriquet-- but in this thread I was just making conversation. RE could vouch for me -- I saved some of my very best for the mouth-breathers on TBP, where, like listening to one of the Pauls speak, things will sound eminently agreeable and reasonable for about five minutes; but at the 5:01 mark some one breaks out a "libtard" or "40 Blocks of Squalor" or "people of Wal-Mart" reference, each of which has to be Terminated. With. Extreme. Prejudice. A crowd that thinks the problems in this country are caused by people receiving public assistance, rather than globalist banksters. Some of the flame wars there were epic-- not for the timid.
One of the problems with being apolitical is that the people who want to do you genuine, palpable harm are NOT. They are working through their agents to stand up a new, repressive legal regime that redefines away our traditional constitutional protections. I didn't pay attention through my 40s and 50s, as I was a single parent raising a daughter. But the more attention I pay, the more radical I get. If I were you, I would try to distance myself as well-- you guys have other, far more important priorities. But someone has to pay attention to what The Man is up to.
One thing confused me: what do/did lesbians have to do with anything?

boro bachmann iq |
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—The average I.Q. of a member of the House of Representatives is expected to rise sharply in 2015, experts said today.
The experts, who indicated that they were “cautiously optimistic” about the development, said that the gains were most likely to be made in the Midwest.
The expected rise in I.Q. could mean that the average congressperson would have a greater grasp of basic concepts in math and science, including the law of evolution, as well as addition and subtraction.
The last time a branch of the federal government experienced such a significant increase in average I.Q., experts said, was the executive branch in 2009.

When I got onto my computer today Mozilla FireFox asked me if I wanted to send the government a letter demanding they stop the NSA bullshit. I agreed and had them send a letter on my behalf to congress to stop the 1984 shit. Not that they give a shit what we think...but I needed to do it, being presented with the option, to keep a clear conscience.
Although I know they don't give a shit what we think...that is when it's not what they want us to think. That is, they want us to think in the parameters of their Hologram programming. The trick is knowing how to plug into that programming to extract what you need while not being caught up in it's delusional nature. This is to hide in plain site like a fox. When it comes crashing down into chaos I expect to be safely surrounded by the natural world somewhere. If I'm lucky that is.

"Hour after hour the grim and grinning cyprians dance and drink, and drink and dance, with thieves and burglars, sailors and bar-tenders, cracksmen and murderers, until they are overpowered with liquor, and sink down into brutal oblivion; or, on the alert for stealing, they wait for their companion's unconsciousness, and plunder him of his valuables..."

A terrible situation that cannot continue indefinitely Surly. OWS will make a much more powerful statement when they manage to come forth again in my view.
Those poor bastards working for 7 bucks an hour in the fast food chains was the first glimmer of the resurgence in my opinion, they are nice non political people and when they start screaming things are really bad for the little guy.
Can you imagine working for 7 bucks an hour with a thirty five hour work week to screw you out of benefits in this day and age of 4 dollar gasoline and inflated food prices? Doesn't add up anymore, big trouble soon. :(

The truth of this cartoon speaks volumes about the financial world we find ourselves in. Bad news is good news because the fed will keep inflating stocks and real estate to counter it; a bonanza for those who hold such assets.

Anyone who has ever sat and stared at what used to be an unforgiving blank piece of paper (now an equally unforgiving blank screen) knows the feeling.
Or more to the point, when in the third hour of writing something, and you sit back to review 3000 words, and your reliable internal critic says "shit, shit, shit..."

Look Joe six, this is the way the world is today, we have globalization. You have to compete with a slave in China or Vietnam making twelve bucks a week. You cannot possible live in the US on those wages so we are going to offer you a clean bunk in the bunk house and three squares a day to show our compassion, no salary, but we have a nice recreation hall where you can play ping pong or checkers on your Sunday afternoon half day off. Think about it Joe, not a bad deal when you consider the alternatives. :'( :'(
I would not put it past the bastards Surly, was thinking about sweet American Pie corporation Apple today with 400 billion parked overseas to avoid taxation, what a sick greedy miserable lot of bastards with their fucking blue jeans and plaid shirt press conferences to announce a new toy to the sheeple.

You know that is pretty much the way many today use the alphabet, when most of their communication is written too. Becaue the custom is for those who know how to spell not to correct those who do not on sms and fb, nobody said anything at that party. There is no question we are going backwards and I really feel for the poor kids who LIKE learning.

This plus joes news plus kks reminders about the scale of child sex traffic when yesterdays news was a worldwide ring was busted. When I get thoughts of shoving that bat up his ass or setting my pet pitbull at his balls and its just a drawing, its time out from posting time.
Surly, I commented on this posting before, it really affected me.
Thought I should tone down my reaction to it saying it's is just a cartoon, don't get carried away.
Then comes Uncle Bob's reaction after mine which reinforced my admiration for it. It surely captures a lot of our desperate problem and situation in a concise manner.
Was wondering if you could check your source for this remarkable Doomster cartoon and see if the author has any more offerings. Have a strong feeling you may have stumbled upon the Cartoon Laureate of the Diner.
At your leisure of course, realize you are busy, something to place on the back burner. Something about it, like you said it seems to Say It All. Thanks, GO

I have not yet been able to track down the artist, but he is a Russian making commentary about the OMON riot police in Russia. Interesting how we are eager to paint Russia as a thugocracy but unable to recognize the same techniques brought home. This at a time when Office John Pike of pepper spray in the face fame is collecting lifetime disability for the trauma he suffered while poisoning students.
Interesting article here-

But I will keep at it. I'm interested as well.

What a surprise, automatically assumed it was US and an OWS outcry.
Come to think of it Snowden is in sanctuary there, the once named EVIL EMPIRE.
Afraid we know who that term applies to now. :-\

GO,
I have done the usual searches and aside from FB can only find this image on one blog. I have emailed the blogger and asked if he could shed a little light. Will let you know what I find.
I share your appreciation of this artist's work and perceptions.

"Remember this. The people you're trying to step on, we're everyone you depend on. We're the people who do your laundry and cook your food and serve your dinner. We make your bed. We guard you while you're asleep. We drive the ambulances. We direct your calls. We are cooks and taxi drivers and we know everything about you. We process your insurance claims and credit card charges. We control every part of your life. We are the middle children of history, raised by television to believe that someday we'll be millionaires and movie stars and rock stars, but we won't. And we're just learning this fact. So don't fuck with us."

So those are the numbers? And I was wondering why the tea party was determining policy (which is the way it has been presented by the ABC), when Obama won with a clear majority.

Billionaire Wilbur Ross, while whining about criticism of billionaires, who he says are being picked on without explaining all the advantages they have such as controlling the government and mass media, says if people want to move into the 1%, all they have to do is get an education. (http://)
[Oh, DO follow the link.]
If all the currently whining billionaires want to find out what being picked on is like, they should protest in the Occupy Movement, where people have been pepper sprayed, beaten, thrown in jail, tear gassed and condemned by the mainstream press for merely peaceably assembling.
If being informed is the answer to how to get into the one percent, how, we must ask, did these idiot billionaires get there?

If one picture can paint a thousand words, the following 33 images, from Danish writer/artist duo Mikael Wulff and Anders Morgenthaler, should shed serious light on the everyday struggles, irritations, and insights of their fellow Westerners.
The duo publishes their satirical creations every day on Wumo, their webcomic and newspaper cartoon strip (formerly known as Wulffmorgenthaler). Their cartoon career started in a comic strip competition in 2001. Their victory gave them the opportunity to be published in Politiken, a national Danish newspaper, for one month. Things continued looking up when their strip became very popular and became a regular feature in several blogs and newspapers in Scandinavia and Germany. Now their comic strip is a regular in The New York Times.
Take a look at this collection of graphs – are they true for you as well?

In most cases, a lot of luck is involved. I can recall two decisions I made in my life of of over 50 years that I was simply lucky as far as the subsequent results went and I simply got lucky both times. My father strongly advised against one of these "major" decisions and I am so glad I made the opposite decision as an indiduual.

Being born rich? I'd call that BIG luck.
Some say "you make your own luck," which is true to the extent that a vision and sheer persistence tends to open doors. But the rich tend to see themselves as self-made paragons of virtue, but the truth of the matter is somewhat different.

Im no expert on this, but I cant help thinking a critical distinction is being overlooked in that graph. Boiling water which will condense and fall to earth in power generation is not as bad as the colossal amount of water used in fracking the gas to get it even if the water is not used in burnng the gas to generate power. The fracking water full of chemicals allowed to be kept secret is then dumped and pollutes the place. Apples and oranges?
I have seen similar statistics suggested in the past and it is my guess that the figures quoted above are for the gas production cycle only and do not include the water used for hydrolic fracturing. Another point to bear in mind is that all natural gas production produces some leakage of gases most notably methane. The methane leakage maybe a relatively small amount to total gas production at around 1-3% but bear in mind that methane has a warming effect that is 30 times more potent than CO2. This means it only takes a small amount of leaking gases to significantly alter the environment impact of this mode of energy production. It has also been stated that unconventional gas production from fracking has higher leaking rates than conventional gas meaning the supposed environmental benefits are likely overstated.

Sure. The graphs is about power generation plants and water usage.
Apples and oranges, indeed.

An outcome of running Perpetual War is that you have Perpetual Veterans. Like Pensioners for GM, they load up on the unfunded obligations.
The Military Arm always tries to get out from under its promises to the Canon Fodder that survives. Remember the Bonus Army? WWI Vets trying to get what was promised to them for hanging in the Trenches and getting Gassed for a few years.
These days, we still got a few surviving WWII Vets, Korean War Vets, Vietnam Vets, Desert Storm Vets, Afghanistan Vets... this is a LOT of Vets needing medical care!
Far as the Illuminati are concerned, they basically hope most of them die in the War itself, or if not soon thereafter. Continuing Care for these folks who have lost limbs and have cancers and other problems from Agent Orange and all the rest of the shit used to prosecute a war in the industrial era is not in the Accounting.

RE
Thats because yoy have so many vets, the USA does all the heavy liftng but gets a bunch of other countries involved too as a token of international consensus. A lot of them do no fighting just training and logistical support etc. Here we always send fighters but the numbers are almost insignificant and they are the highest trained SAS commandos anyway, obviously in a real war against a real adversary this would change. But they do NOT at this point or ever since ww2 as far as I know skimp on their gold veterans cards. Practice managers will see the veterans card and slug them a hefty premium of about an extra hundred bucks for an apt.

And the zoo and phyto plankton biomass is even greater than the ants!
In short, our problem is not biological (i.e. caloric intake related); it's incredibily wasteful machinery and manufacturing and mining that is trashing the planet FOR the top 1% of humans MOSTLY BY the top 20% of them.
I can give stats on all the above. 8) I have an article on the back burner that includes them. I'll get to that in a month or so. It's hard to tell right now. BUT, all that info is hard science and available on the internet. 8)
Yep, Homo Sap is BAD. But it's not our SHIT and EATING that makes us BAD; it's our planet trashing MACHINERY. Closed loop recycling is not pie in the sky. Nature has done it for millions (at least!) of years.
It's high time we RElearned how to do it and make proper machinery instead of that primitive mechanical CRAP that runs our civilization now.

What a friggin Sick Joke Surly.
People running a corporation are caught committing serious crimes.
The government catches them red handed.
They make a deal that the innocent shareholders in the corporation are the ones to pay the fine and do the suffering.
They sign these deals without admitting or denying guilt and hand over a 7 billion dollar corporate check that the shareholders foot the bill for.
Their Jobs, Exorbitant Salaries and Perks and Bonuses continue as if nothing had happened. :icon_scratch: :exp-angry: :exp-angry: :exp-angry:

Quote
As I read column after column that blames hip-hop or the N-Word for mass incarceration, I cannot help but wonder if Richard’s Nixon’s launching of the war on drugs, if the Rockefeller laws, the federal sentencing guidelines for crack, the disenfranchisement laws that saturate our nation, the centrality of racial appeals for law and order, President Bill Clinton’s massive expansion of America’s prison system, and the investment in police and not schools, was all because of hip-hop. (http://www.desismileys.com/smileys/desismileys_2932.gif) If you live in Jason Whitlock’s :evil4: world, and that of the vast number of celebratory commentators (http://www.pic4ever.com/images/www_MyEmoticons_com__burp.gif), that seems to be the conclusion.

When they aren't admitting "It IS about race", they claim it's about HIP HOP! See SUPER RACIST Kuntsler references to NOT "learning to speak English properly" as a CAUSE of failure! :emthdown:

"Never in the 30 years since the the Federal Reserve first starting collecting wealth data has the divide between the rich and everyone else been so large (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/12/17/wealth-gap-record-pew-research_n_6343264.html), according to a new analysis by the Pew Research Center."
It would appear that the rich learned nothing from the French Revolution and will wait until it's too late and the guillotines are put to task. Like the Russian Czars they think all they need is control of the government and the laws.

In fairness trickle down economics is true if you take the strict definition and place emphasis on the word TRICKLE. I think the statement has so much baggage that people think a "trickle" means their wealth is increasing by a meaningful level. That isn't the case. The theory does exactly what it says on the tin and must be taken at face value: it gives you a trickle. Plus the other thing is this statement says nothing about what happens to all the other wealth barring the trickle. Wonder where that goes eh?

In fairness trickle down economics is true if you take the strict definition and place emphasis on the word TRICKLE. I think the statement has so much baggage that people think a "trickle" means their wealth is increasing by a meaningful level. That isn't the case. The theory does exactly what it says on the tin and must be taken at face value: it gives you a trickle. Plus the other thing is this statement says nothing about what happens to all the other wealth barring the trickle. Wonder where that goes eh?
No wonder at all.

From Berkeley Brethed's Facebook page:
Berkeley Breathed
A return after 25 years. Feels like going home.
I was just saying to my wife that I'll bet that Breathed has probably been debating whether to go for it for some time now given the absurdity of the 2016 race, and that it was Donald Trump who tipped him over the edge. In any event, thanks to The Donald.
Or put another way...

Forgot to mention that travesty the other day on my news thread Surly.
Kiss another good item from the past bye bye. That prick will be doubling subscriptions, fire all the first class photographers and cancel all the expensive travels they go on is search of natural beauty. Everything will be completed obliterated that made it something special. These fucking pigs just cannot get enough control and power, they won't leave anything sacred the fuck alone. :'(

Yeah. Very disappointing. My kid is due to graduate this spring with a degree in Geography. I remember him showing me his HS yearbook with good luck wishes from friends hoping to see him down the road, published in Nat Geo.
Yes vw, a sad story indeed. Geographic was part of our education and their photos were the envy of the publishing world.
Murdoch purchased Barron's Weekly Financial, a periodical I read religiously my entire life. I would scoot down to Harvard Square to be the first to get it hot of the press at the famous news stands there. He totally destroyed it within a year in my view, and turned it into another advertising rag sheet filled with low quality garble. He cut the size of it in half and doubled the price immediately after taking over. He is ruthless and uncaring of anything to due with tradition. Loss Leader is not a phrase in his vocabulary.
If your a younge person my friend it might pay to buy up some back issues of Geographic and put them away as collectibles, many folks collect them already, but when Murdoch gets done with his deeds they will no doubt become treasures. :'(

ISIS only exists because Pres. Bush and his puppet master, Dick Cheney, invaded Iraq under false pretenses in order to enrich their military contractor buddies (Cheney's own Halliburton profited $39 billion).

Yep. There is a long tradition backing Cheney's MO (see 'Destructive Creations' peddled as 'Creative Destructions' :evil4:).
We all know that everybody on Wall Street lies whenever necessary to make a lot of money. But since 2012 we know that at least one fourth of them tell the truth in surveys...
A Quarter Of Wall Street Executives Say You Have To Be Unethical To Succeed (http://www.pic4ever.com/images/pirates5B15D_th.gif)
Quote
Jul. 10, 2012, 5:12 PM
According to a report released today by Labaton Sucharow, a shocking 24 percent of financial executives from the US and UK believe that it is necessary "to engage in unethical or illegal conduct in order to be successful."
Perhaps more surprising, 26 percent of the 500 senior executives polled said they actually knew about immoral behavior going on in the work place.

When I moved here from Cali. 25 years ago & found out there's no
union protection & Az is a right-to-work state, I said "Ok. I'll give it whirl".
I found out later it was the best decision I ever made to leave the land

However, it does reflect my take on things, and the blog entry that goes with the cartoon makes the same points I was trying to make.

Our argument (yours and mine) makes me see the real difficulty in calling any minority out on their bullshit, no matter how ridiculous they might act. There are some sacred cows that need to be kicked, but if you kick them you just stir up a hornet's nest.
Lots of tweets from Mizzou over the weekend, complaining that the Paris Massacre is causing their noble efforts at social justice to pass out of the news spotlight. Poor things.

The comment above was a joke if it wasnt clear. You DID indeed post the crybullies cartoon but i think you are being hypersensitive yourself. You posted a plain white space inside a brown border called a safe space and are offended when i describe it as a white only safe space. Cartoons are meant to make u laugh, so why so serious. Yes a lot of the antics of the protesters are irrational and childish, screaming and using the ridiculous language of academia now , I acknowledged that. Looking past the much ado, is it much ado about NOTHING? Im not sure all their demands are justified, maybe not. but your objections and resentments here have centred on the money and boil down to that if you cant fully eliminate racism it is a waste of money to try and reduce it and essentially cotton pickers can not be costing plantations profits. Defending exercising your right not to talk to, sit next to, work with, admit entry or serve blacks is defending segregation. Segregation was a transition out of second class human status and slavery, but can just as easily be a transition back into it, that could be why some of them (teenagers who are neurologically still self centred) think their cause is just as important as a massacre.

Yep. But a slightly more in depth analysis of the way our oligarchs have managed to propagandize people like MKing into thinking one type of behavior is wrong, and therefore deserves "lack of work ethic" derision and prison, while the other type is the "real world" deserving of admiration and praise for "MAKE A DAILY KILLING" (see MKing's numerous wishful thinking comparisons of this type of ethics free, parasitical Wall street grand larceny with apex predator behavior in nature) is in order. :evil4:
(https://collapseofindustrialcivilization.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/capitalism-good-business-sense-leila-la-tres-sage.png)
Self serving bullshit is what PARASITES always use to defend laziness, lack of work ethic and ethics free shitting where they eat. Parasites actually DO work hard to suck the blood out of their hosts, so MKing and his pals in Wall Street/Fossil fuel crooks/Nuclear power crooks/M.I.C. are technically "hard workers". But the fact is they work HARD at MAKING SURE everyone lese works HARDER than they do FOR LESS MONEY. They work HARD at making all the rest of us EAT THE SHIT they produce in their stupid, dirty, "business models".
So, in the final analysis, the issue was never about working hard, although they always want to make that the issue. The issue is Criminally negligent IRRESPONSIBILITY.
Of course they know that. That is why they accuse the rest of us of doing what they do 24/7.

jesus said something about specs and cataracts in our own and others eyes.
In yesterdays news another american was denied an entry visa to australia based on being misogynist (this never happens to black rappers who say worse re women). A Gender History PhD student petitioned the immigration minister, who did not bother to verify the accusation before taking action. In the comments section those who took the trouble to check the material in question, did not read it the way the petition claimed and in fact the opposite. What the petition claimed seemed very unlikely to me.
Now thats out of the way white feminists can get back to the important work of promoting porn stars rape allegations because their co stars didnt stop when she said a safe word. Meanwhile those who bothered to check the scene concluded the word must have been 'harder', so the campaigners call for the critics to be censored
too.

I think Cruz has more to worry about in his own party than he does with Hillary, sorry to say. In a better world it would be Hillary dropping out to support Bernie. She isn't fit to tie his shoes.
I'd like to do something to keep Cruz from carrying Texas, but that would mean a primary vote for Trump. That'd be real hard to stomach, but I'd piss on a sparkplug to keep Cruz out of the White House.

At any rate there is ONE LESS FASCIST RAT in the supreme court now.

Yes, reason enough for me not to see the assassin of Glass-Segal and the murderess of thousands sleeping under the White House roof in an unholy revival of an American Camelot that can never be.
Doomsteaders follow foreign affairs because it has much to do with how we as a nation deal with collapse and the coming age of resource constraint. Yet what other groups of outliers besides doomsteaders concern themselves with truths not told by main stream media? They too would know that Hillary is an incompetent jingoist with much blood on her blue pantsuits, but who would 'they' be?
I fear methinks, we Knights of Doom carry our lances past cities not unlike that of biblical Sodom where there is no welcome for the pure of heart on a holy quest. We quest for a continuation of the human experiment in a kingdom which will make our fair lord proud. The holy grail of sustainability, reason, and peace is what we seek. Yet in our travels the pestilence of ignorance lies heavy on the land. It slows us down and it makes our journey a retched one which fatigues even the most robust of Knights.

Somewhat apropos, this from Information Clearing House and Tom Feeley today:
Quote
"The Democratic Party is not an association of political virgins and pacifists, but the second-oldest capitalist party on the planet, steeped in blood from its origins as the party of the Southern slaveowners. It is the party of World War I, World War II, Korea and Vietnam, of Hiroshima and Nagasaki."

But Republicans do think! They think about me me me.
Ah, there are some smart and even principled conservatives out there. I have enjoyed conversation with them over the decades. They seem to be gone these days, for the most part. The most endangered species on the planet may be The Moderate republican. The nativist, white rage types have all the energy-- not only here, but in Europe and all over the world.
Not gonna end well. The first things extremists of all stripes do is kill the moderates. As tried and true a technique as divide and conquer.

Rick Friday has been giving farmers a voice and a laugh every Friday for two decades through his cartoons in Farm News.
Now the long-time Iowa farm cartoonist tells KCCI that he has been fired.
Friday announced Sunday that his job was over after 21 years in a Facebook post that has since gone viral.
FACEBOOK POST:
"Again, I fall hard in the best interest of large corporations. I am no longer the Editorial Cartoonist for Farm News due to the attached cartoon which was published yesterday. Apparently a large company affiliated with one of the corporations mentioned in the cartoon was insulted and cancelled their advertisement with the paper, thus, resulting in the reprimand of my editor and cancellation of its Friday cartoons after 21 years of service and over 1,090 published cartoons to over 24,000 households per week in 33 counties of Iowa.
"I did my research and only submitted the facts in my cartoon.
"That's okay, hopefully my children and my grandchildren will see that this last cartoon published by Farm News out of Fort Dodge, Iowa, will shine light on how fragile our rights to free speech and free press really are in the county."
THE CARTOON:
The cartoon features two farmers talking about farming profits. (view cartoon)
The first says, "I wish there was more profit in farming."
The second farm answers, "There is. In year 2015 the CEOs of Monsanto, DuPont Pioneer and John Deere combined made more money than 2,129 Iowa farmers.
Friday received an email from his editor at Farm New cutting off their relationship a day after the cartoon was published.
Friday’s editor said a seed dealer pulled their advertisements with Farm News as a result of the cartoon, and others working at the paper disagreed with the jokes made about the agriculture corporations.
“When it comes to altering someone’s opinion or someone’s voice for the purpose of wealth, I have a problem with that,” said Friday. “It’s our constitutional right to free speech and our constitutional right to free press.”

Rick Friday has been giving farmers a voice and a laugh every Friday for two decades through his cartoons in Farm News.
Now the long-time Iowa farm cartoonist tells KCCI that he has been fired.
Friday announced Sunday that his job was over after 21 years in a Facebook post that has since gone viral.
FACEBOOK POST:
"Again, I fall hard in the best interest of large corporations. I am no longer the Editorial Cartoonist for Farm News due to the attached cartoon which was published yesterday. Apparently a large company affiliated with one of the corporations mentioned in the cartoon was insulted and cancelled their advertisement with the paper, thus, resulting in the reprimand of my editor and cancellation of its Friday cartoons after 21 years of service and over 1,090 published cartoons to over 24,000 households per week in 33 counties of Iowa.
"I did my research and only submitted the facts in my cartoon.
"That's okay, hopefully my children and my grandchildren will see that this last cartoon published by Farm News out of Fort Dodge, Iowa, will shine light on how fragile our rights to free speech and free press really are in the county."
THE CARTOON:
The cartoon features two farmers talking about farming profits. (view cartoon)
The first says, "I wish there was more profit in farming."
The second farm answers, "There is. In year 2015 the CEOs of Monsanto, DuPont Pioneer and John Deere combined made more money than 2,129 Iowa farmers.
Friday received an email from his editor at Farm New cutting off their relationship a day after the cartoon was published.
Friday’s editor said a seed dealer pulled their advertisements with Farm News as a result of the cartoon, and others working at the paper disagreed with the jokes made about the agriculture corporations.
“When it comes to altering someone’s opinion or someone’s voice for the purpose of wealth, I have a problem with that,” said Friday. “It’s our constitutional right to free speech and our constitutional right to free press.”

The way it works in this country.....and everywhere else, as best I can tell. We are ruled by evil greedy men who gladly poison their own grandchildren in order to accumulate money they don't even need, and in fact will never spend. Something is amiss with this business model.
Yep. Something is VERY amiss when Human Dignity is not considered Capital. That something will destroy absolutely everything good that humanity has ever accomplished if it is not somehow properly demonized and banished forever from human society.

Yep. :( Jesus Christ said a thing or two to about how the Pences (http://www.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-311013200859.png)and Trumps :evil4: of this world would treat good people:
Quote
John 15 ( ERV -Easy to Read Version)
21 They will do to you whatever they did to me, because you belong to me. They don’t know the one who sent me.
22 If I had not come and spoken to the people of the world, they would not be guilty of sin. But now I have spoken to them. So they have no excuse for their sin.
23 “Whoever hates me also hates my Father.
24 I did things among the people of the world that no one else has ever done. If I had not done those things, they would not be guilty of sin. But they have seen what I did, and still they hate me and my Father.
25 But this happened to make clear the full meaning of what is written in their law: ‘They hated me for no reason.’

You are correct. If you read Jane Mayer's article about Mike Pence in there New Yorker, it's pretty clear that when they put Mike Pence in charge of the transition, we got a Koch Bros. government. Chris Christie had actually put together a bunch of dossiers that Pence immediately threw away.
As bad as Trump is, Pence is worse. A real Christopath.
Post by: Eddie on October 29, 2017, 08:10:30 PM
It was obvious to me that we were getting a cabinet hand-picked by the Kochs within the first week of the transition, and I said so here. And when Trump started talking about Clean Coal? Where did a dumbass like Trump learn that term?
They switched to Trump because he was willing to accept Pence, who is the real annointed one. The Kochs hope Trump crashes and burns so their guy can take the helm.
Christopath...I like that.
Post by: Surly1 on October 30, 2017, 03:30:10 AM
Jane Mayer...I caught an interview on NPR or maybe she was on Fresh Air.....for someone who supposedly has deep background and wrote Dark Money and all that, she sure seemed slow on the uptake.
You might try Jeremy Scahill's interview with Mayer here:
https://theintercept.com/2017/10/25/intercepted-podcast-mike-pence-is-the-koch-brothers-manchurian-candidate/
Scroll or forward past the NPR-style fundraising appeal, and stay or don't for the Niger discussion. Imperium redux. Interview with Jane Mayer starts @ 15:10.
The original article in the New Yorker was a gripping read, as well. Mayer interviewed his mother, his family, did everything but pick through his underwear. Spoiler: it's worse than you think.

I hate political correctness, but giving Trump credit for slaying it is bogus. It's getting worse anyway, and not better. It's just the future that we've been given. That's because we don't grant equality, we grant "special" status to groups we identify as being discriminated against.
The Trump-Putin axis of evil isn't real. The Deep State has Trump by the balls now, and they don't like Putin. Did Putin influence the election. Certainly. Does anybody much care? I don't think so.

I hear you Eddie, but took the particular cartoon on Political Correctness in a different light. Jeb Bush weeping on the side gave me the impression that Trump won by not being Politically Correct like all the whining trying to kiss everyone's asses whimps like PC Bush and the rest of those jerkoffs, by not being politically correct.
Of course your differing take is valid, just explaining my view.

I don't need any time. Trump's oligarch bosses want to keep Russia in the fold of the world banking cartel. Money talks and bullshit walks. They want to own Putin, not fight him.
Congress makes the obligatory harrumphs, and the executive branch quietly allows BAU. So it goes.

I'm not sure what the EXTENT was of Russian influence. They didn't influence me, I don't think. I don't read social media, and forward erroneous garbage to everyone I know. I spent most of the campaign worrying that Trump supporters would go full Nazi if they LOST.
Frankly I think it would have been weird if the Russians didn't try to influence the election. It's not like the US doesn't meddle in elections. We have a history of directly intervening in foreign elections to prevent lawfully elected winners from taking office. That's what we did in Viet Nam, for example.
To me it's just the typical stuff that happens everywhere. It's the righteous indignation about it that's silly. And the extreme reaction, which is all politics.

This is GOP Talking Point Number One, repeated so incessantly and so ubiquitously that it has reached the point of reflex: Both Sides Do It.
Everyone is equally partisan.
Equally to blame.
Equally unreasonable.
Everybody knows that…except for some mysterious reason no one can lay hands on a single metric that shows this to be true.
It's been this way since the days of St. Reagan, and the soulless cabal of Atwater, Stone and Manafort leapt from transforming the Young Republicans to kidnapping the big kahuna, the Republican party and turned American politics into the cash-greased shitpit it is today.
Good article here: https://medium.com/the-atlantic/the-plot-against-america-703c5cfcb367
[Interesting sidebar: Remember the stories about how Manafort had been dodging Oleg Deripaska, because the Russian oligarch wanted to know what had become of his money? For a slippery character, Manafort has always had very sticky fingers. Old timers may recall that ferdinand marcos donated $10M to dutch's campaign. Surprised the boodle never made it? From the article:
Quote
Stories about Manafort’s slipperiness have acquired mythic status. In the summer of 2016, Politico’s Kenneth Vogel, now with The New York Times, wrote a rigorous exegesis of a long-standing rumor: Manafort was said to have walked away with $10 million in cash from Ferdinand Marcos, money he promised he would deliver to Ronald Reagan’s reelection campaign (which itself would have been illegal). Vogel relied in part on the 1996 memoir of Ed Rollins, a Republican consultant and Reagan’s reelection-campaign director. In the book, Rollins recounted a dinner-party conversation with a member of the Filipino congress who claimed to have personally given a suitcase of cash to a “well-known Washington power lobbyist” involved in the Marcos campaign. Rollins would neither confirm nor deny that the lobbyist was Manafort, though his description doesn’t leave much uncertainty, and he conceded in an email that “it’s a pretty good guess.” Rollins admits in his book to being “stunned” by what he heard — “not in a state of total disbelief, though, because I knew the lobbyist well and I had no doubt the money was now in some offshore bank.” This irked Rollins greatly: “I ran the [Reagan] campaign for $75,000 a year, and this guy got $10 million in cash.”
The GOP can now force the bar to be lowered and the ire to be raised uniformly and robotically for everyone every time they and only they are caught naked, fisting the Easter Bunny.
Since elected republicans are accountable to nothing, not their hand-chosen voters or to any sense of public decency, now we are faced with the fact that millions of our fellow citizens are either hateful morons or clinically insane and that they are almost all packed into the same political Party.
A Party/Media/Corporate Empire which now survives solely by keeping its base ignorant, frightened and berserk with rage.
We dwell in two, distinct Americas now -- one that is certainly flawed and squabbling and timorous, and the other America – the Red/Fox America -- is so existentially monstrous that it is now inimical to every value we claim to cherish. It is now the Party of Trump, whos is, in turn, the logical extension of every calamity the Rs have endorsed over the last 40 years
And so with the eager help of Hate Radio, Fox News and the Mainstream Media, they invent a bedtime story to help them hide the ugly truth. An opium dream that is now faithfully parroted by every Broder and Brooks and Friedman and Neal Conan in the land. This lie that no matter how low the GOP sinks, somehow, some way the Democrats are equally and oppositely terrible.
Equally steeped in sin and intolerance.
Equally to blame for every bad thing...
Which is nonsense. KNow that when someone breaks into a chorus of "Both Sids" or "What About...", lifeboats are being prepared so that conservatives can float away from the destruction they have caused and declare themselves, "independents," and attempt to foist some version of the "no Labels" scam on the unsuspecting.

At least he/she can make up his/her mind about something by his/her self.
Looking up the thread on be previous page I notice Batman likes his chicken a bit indeterminate too. The interesting thing is were these 'artistic jokes' the result of the actual artist doing what they wanted to do or were they told to do their art in that particular way by the signer of their paychecks. Only the fly on the wall knows.

FAIR) The work of Rob Rogers, longtime political cartoonist for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, has been notably absent from his paper’s opinion page during this past week. Aside from a cartoon criticizing the trade war posted on Tuesday, June 5, the most recent of Rogers’ drawings appeared last Thursday, May 24.
So where was Rogers all of last week? He did not simply “have the day off,” as printed in last Tuesday’s issue of the Post-Gazette.
Keith Burris, the Post-Gazette’s editorial director since March, when it merged its editorial board with the co-owned Toledo Blade, refused to publish six of Rogers’ cartoons in a row. Four were directly critical of President Donald Trump, and two alluded to racism.
Despite not being published in the Post-Gazette, Rogers continued posting these cartoons on Twitter, as he does with all of his work.
May 25’s cartoon portrayed a referee calling penalties for exercising free speech, disrespecting the troops and eliciting Trump tweetstorms, in light of the NFL’s announcement of their new rule dictating players must stand during the national anthem:
On May 30, he criticized the NFL again, joking it was closed for “racial ignorance training” in light of Starbucks closing many of its locations for racial sensitivity training:
His Memorial Day sketch depicted a caricature of Trump placing a wreath on the grave of Truth, Honor and the Rule of Law:
On May 31, Rogers satirized Roseanne Barr’s claim that her racist tweets were a result of her taking sleeping pills:
The June 1 cartoon criticized Trump for his immigration policies…
…while on June 3, Rogers satirized Trump’s claim he could pardon himself in the Russia investigation:
None of these cartoons appeared in the Post-Gazette, despite Rogers being the paper’s full-time staff political cartoonist.
Burris frequently writes in support of Trump for the Post-Gazette’s opinion section. In “Can Roseanne Restore Our Sense of Proportion?” (4/8/18), Burris referred to “Trump-hate” as “a mania, a fever, a hissy fit by the self-anointed guardians of all that is good and enlightened in America.” He argued:
God help you if you actually like some of what Mr. Trump does and dislike other things that he does or says. You are, in the words of a church lady who confronted me one day, “complicit.”
Burris wrote an editorial in January (1/15/18) headlined “Reason as Racism,” which defended Trump’s description of developing nations as “shithole countries,” and likened being called racist today with being labeled a Communist during the McCarthy Era.
The paper’s publisher, John Robinson Block of Block Communications, which owns both the Post-Gazette and the Blade, insisted that the piece be printed, according to Post-Gazette reporter Michael A. Fuoco (CJR, 1/22/18). Fuoco went on to describe the dread he and the other newsroom employees felt in the wake of the piece’s publishing.
Block is an open Trump supporter, who (accompanied by Burris) met with Trump on his private plane in 2016 following a campaign rally, tweeting it was “a more than memorable experience” (9/22/16). He also suggested at a community forum on racism in 2013 (Toledo Blade, 9/17/13) that people of color should “pull themselves up by their bootstraps” like they did in the “old days”. The Post-Gazette also came under fire in Nov. 2016 for their piece, “A Guide to Decide: Twelve Tests to Choose Between Clinton and Trump,” which was read by many as a crypto-endorsement of Trump.
Burris’ article was so incendiary that the Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh, which noted it does not, as a rule, comment on editorials, felt the need to denounce the piece, calling it “repugnant.” One hundred and fifty of the Post-Gazette’s newsroom employees signed the letter.
The paper did not publish the Guild’s letter, or another signed by 23 Post-Gazette staff members (CJR, 1/22/18)–omissions that seem to foreshadow the paper’s new editorial director’s distaste for dissenting opinion.
The Blade, however, ran Burris’ response to the backlash against his piece in a column headlined “The Left’s War on Thought” (1/26/18).
When a Philadelphia Inquirer reporter (6/4/18) reached out to Rogers for comment, Rogers said he was unable to speak of the incident, but confirmed he was still employed by the paper. The piece also noted Burris did not respond.
This morning (6/6/18), in a series of three tweets, Rogers thanked his readers and colleagues for their support, but announced he would be taking some time off from the Post-Gazette while the issue is being resolved. “I love what I do,” he tweeted:
Now, more than ever, I believe in the power of satire and the public dialogue that it can create. Thank you for being part of that dialogue.
The paper ran the latest Rogers cartoon without an acknowledgement of the cartoonist’s absence over the past week. Rogers’ supporters denounced the censorship with comments on the paper’s website like:
So, the Toledo editors CENSORED Rogers’ cartoons!!!!!!!!!!!! Where are we? 1930’s Berlin! This Fascist Conservative Brown Shirt stuff is VERY DANGEROUS.
and:
It’s so stupid that the PG board would weaken the paper and insult we readers by suppressing Rob Rogers’ great work.
Newsday cartoonist Matt Davies came out in support of Rogers on Twitter(6/5/18), saying good editors publish that which they disagree with. This would seem to echo the lessons Burris himself (Post-Gazette, 3/4/18) says he learned from John Craig, the editor who first hired him for paper, who said that a good journalist “has no side or tribe,” and that an opinion writer “must have roots but no permanent alliances.”
Local outlets like the Inquirer and CBS Pittsburgh (6/4/18), as well as CNN Money (6/4/18), have picked up on the story of Rogers’ censorship, but it has yet to appear on larger national sites like the New York Times or NPR.

Those guys should be careful. Ya know Putin calls them in the middle of the night to egg em on but never mind bout that. This could be big trouble.
Trump, between his golden coiffured ears we won't have to worry about. The machinery doesn't run smooth up there. The problem is Trump has resources. The small hands can press big buttons. It is almost as if Trump is a gremlin who has tasted a magic elixir.

So true. I have one of those. I'm so glad she got her house before she got priced out of the market.
It's a calling, teaching is. I have this belief that it's a long line in our family, probably going back many generations. There are always one or two in the family. The family name comes from around Oxford. Could be.
I would have been happy teaching, I think, but even when I was young I knew that it would be a ticket to poverty. When I was a teenager I idolized A.S. Neill.

Sigh. Do you remember standing on a swing and seeing how high you could pump it up, until the chains went loose? Then jumping off it at about 45 degrees to see how far you could fly?

Clearly the Forum is a history-free zone.
Andrew Johnson followed Lincoln, and was impeached for his trouble, but missed conviction in the Senate by one vote.
"Colonel" Edwin Drake sunk his well in 1859, but oil would not reach its energy dominance until the 20th century. Originally oil was refined to make kerosene for lamps, replacing coal oil.
The 19th century ran on coal-- the trains which would cross the continent (after those pesky native peoples and bison were exterminated), to the dispatch of the Great White Fleet-- America was powered by coal.

The main difference between Uncle Adolf and Trumpovetsky is Adolf was pretty effective in the first few years. Trumpofsky had about 2 years pushing his agenda. It is going nowhere fast now.

A business opportunity. A seminar put together to show billionaires how to keep staff loyal when banks can't make direct deposits anymore. We can have it in the 1% opulent vacation palaces. Learn how to ski with them and stuff like that and we can charge up the wazoo.
We can also set up an armed food delivery service. When paid goons can't get a paycheck because the banks are down; everybody can be kept loyal with simple cans of beans.

The seminar will cover alternate forms of payment on day one. A song and dance about underground bean storage facilities and their maintenance can follow in the afternoon.
We could charge enough to join the 1% ourselves. :pirate2:

You might have seen that the original small business stimulus money already ran out for the payroll loans. Interesting since we applied the instant they started taking apps...and Wells Fargo just sent us the real (full) app yesterday too.
Meanwhile Ruth's Chris Steakhouse gets 20 million.
The distribution appears to be slightly uneven. Must be a lack of helicopters in my area. That's all I can think.

We thank you for your letter inquiring about helicopter drops in your area. Unfortunately, helicopters are being reserved for large drops to bigger companies. For your company, we will be using our new and improved toy drones, which will be operational just as soon as we can figure out the battery question -- Duracell or Everready.
We do hope there will not be much wind in your area on Drop Day, as our toy drones don't do very well in wind.

Yup. Smokescreen.....however one of my ex-con patients told me he got the po' folks $1200. Glad somebody is collecting something.
But not the hedgies. Why can't they just go short like everybody else, and make a ton of money? Hell. I shoulda gone short.

So he goes in debt (for whatever portion of the loan is not forgiven, which is not clear to me) to pay his people....and they actually get LESS than they would get on unemployment.....since he has no work for them and so their (hourly based) paychecks would be fairly minimal too.
This applies to me and my workers too. It's sort of a Catch-22.

Too simplistic. A graphic artist needs to get to work on a card deck. Four suites and four face cards is still not enough. Perhaps Proud Boys can be like clubs. The queen of Antifa hearts will be transgender. But America is more a tarot deck where anything goes.
If you slice and dice people into categories there is no end to it and cultivation of hate and identity politics has become an art form. Somebody for everyone to hate. That is how fascism works. The American form.
Social distancing is now on the list of forbidden words and phrases. It is not on the news. All lives matter is considered racist. The American people are being played but as we know. They don't know. Both the red and blue teams meme us to death.

Fuck that noise.
The meme has it exact. You are correct to note the Bernaysian use of language, but then that's the point, isn't it?
"All lives matter" is racist on its face. It was the racist response to "Black Lives Matter," an intentional attempt to dilute and dispel. White lives ALWAYS matter; one of the perks of American citizenship. "Conditional citizens" need not apply.
Let's all hold hands and join in a chorus of "blue lives matter."

Note that you really only hear the outrage when it happens to white people.
Defund the cops, end qualified immunity, and take their fucking pensions.

Looks white to me. Certainly not nearly the skin tone of George Floyd. More like Lena Horne.
