Assuming the setting works, a set-up-in-advance

post to take care of some stuff

                                                            "But I will keep that in mind."

                            I've noticed that this holds true with a LOT of women from all over

Yes, the usual is below

Well, in roughly 24 hours I'll be

having my shoulder worked on.  That'll be fun.  Then a couple of weeks or so in a sling, then PT, more fun.

So during the next while there'll be little to no posting, because typing out a rant one-handed is a pain.  I'll probably see something that sets me off, but it won't be much that can cause me to start that.

At this point I'm actually coming to hate the Democrat Party

and the dickheads running it.

All I have to say

 

Once more that time has rolled around,

so while I can do it more clearing

                                                                    And yes, it always was

                            It didn't bounce, but I saw something similar a couple of times

                                Something about this lady makes me just sit and think 'Wow'

                            She says while sitting next to a guy in boots, a loincloth and a belt

And down below for those of adulthood(years-wise, at least)

Starship V3 has made a successful launch and flight

and, from the look of it, it's incredible.

Also a demonstration to Occasional-Cortex why she can't make a billion dollars.

Bra testing.

I'd never heard of Flock Cameras until the other day,

but it sounds like something I would not want around.

Things I don't want around, like illegal aliens who commit mass shootings.  Who probably have some Democrats trying to get them released on no bail.(speaking of things I do not want around, like idiots making it easier to be an addict living on the streets)


Heard the phrase 'suicidal empathy'?  It covers her death, thinking it would protect her from harm.

Covering the current mess

I have, remember the fall I told about?  Well, it tore up the rotator cuff, which leads to, in a few days, I'll be having surgery on that shoulder.  Which will mean very little if any bloggage for a while, as doing all this one-handed is fun.

I'll be shutting off comments during that time to simplify upkeep on this place.  

For now, isn't this just a wonderful modern Democrat?  "I hate Zionists, but that doesn't mean I  hate Jew- excuse me, Semites, because it's different when WE do it!"
Right.  Texas, you've got a fine example of that here.


Speaking of, Lawdog has a bit of history on telling a people "I don't care if it's your custom, you can't do it anymore.  Or else."  With the 'else' being serious.  And it really needs to be applied to a bunch of people.  I'll borrow one bit:

In these “enlightened” days, it certainly appears that the judicial and legislative political critters seem to think that certain barbaric acts are excusable due to foreign customs.

Huh.

This is the West. We have had the unspoken “Napier Doctrine” from before Sir Charles so eloquently stated it, and it’s time that we reaffirmed it.

If your religious, cultural, national, or ethnic custom is that “women are no more worthy than a lollipop that has been dropped on the ground”, well the custom in the West is that women are precious; and to be treasured and defended. You act according to your customs, and we’ll act according to ours — rape is a felony and you get decades in prison.

Your religious, cultural, national, or ethnic custom may be that women and girls must be modest, and you’re just following your custom by assaulting them “for their own good”? Be it so. Our custom is that fathers, husbands, and other male relatives get to practice corrective phrenology if they catch you being stupid. Let us all act according to custom.

Your religious, cultural, national, or ethnic custom may be that dogs are unclean filth, but our custom is that they are beloved companions. Want to kick at them? Ok, but our custom is to beat the brakes off of you when you do. You follow your customs, and we’ll follow ours. Deal?

Hear, hear.
I'm still wondering if the idiot running NYC will allow Sharia patrols to start, or if he's figured out that just might not go well?


Kim has a piece on another well-educated idiot playing 'cultural appropriation' games, while really only wanting that to run one way.


And, totally unrelated to news, someone had a link to her video.  It's a bit strange, but damn, she's cute and has a nice voice.



And now I have PT to do.

A lighter Thompson carbine

Makes you wonder why nobody tried using aluminum as a receiver for these before, because I've fired one a few times and they are heavy.  


Winchester has a new ammo line intended specifically for lever-action rifles.  Which is fine, they're fun to shoot, and can be downright handy.  Which reminded me:
One day a older couple came into the store and were looking at, well, everything, it being their first time there.  Wound up with the wife talking to me while the husband was getting details on something, and the subject of self-defense arms came up.  She said that they had some land in California they were thinking of retiring to, and what kind of firearms did I think might work well?

My suggestion was a couple of .357 Magnum revolvers, and a lever-action in the same cartridge.  Reasons being:
You can load both revolver and rifle with anything from the lightest target loads to the heavy, stomping magnums.

Those magnums, out of a 16" rifle barrel, gain damn near 400 feet per second velocity, with a significant boost in energy.

Make that rifle a saddle-ring carbine and you can clip it to a single-point sling and carry it slung over the shoulder, nice and handy.

And even Californicated has not tried calling lever-actions 'assault weapons' that I know of.

So you've got arms that use the same ammo, with the rifle giving the hot stuff a serious boost, all reloadable(if you do so), and still a very common, easy to get ammo.

I still think that's a good combination for most places.  If you're in a place where you might have to deal with bear a heavier cartridge might be better; at best a combo where handgun and rifle both fire .44 Magnum, which gives you .44 Special for lighter loads.  Yes, I know, heavier for the rifle if you really need to worry about big game, but you'd lose the 'same ammo for both' option, which could be a problem for some.

One 'We'll see' and one 'Keep your eyes open'

The first is possible oil shortage.

The second is, well, exactly that.

Hey, it's the NYeffingTimes, you act like you expect truth

to come from it?

Earlier: The Big Tell: NYT Not Reporting Kristof Accusations on its News Pages.

Think about that: the journalists who would run with allegations from the Steele Dossier and make a two-year crusade out of proving it are too ashamed to touch Kristof’s accusations.

That’s how absurd this story is.

Thus the kerfuffle between the Gray Lady’s “news” and opinion departments:

BREAKING: A massive civil war has reportedly emerged within the New York Times, with many journalists questioning the credibility of Kristof’s piece.

One NYT journalist stated: “I am sick of being embarrassed by the Opinion section.”

Ammo.com on 'how loud is a gunshot

and how far can it be heard?'

Who else would you expect the communist terrorist-supporting Mayor of NYeffingCity

 to give press passes to?

I agree; I don't know where it is,

 but damn, I wouldn't mind being there

"Don't worry, Starmer," says the Labour Party,

"we have lots of other little Stalin Wannabes who's shut up the peasants!"

Well, hell, one more reason a more affordable blunderbuss kit

is needed: it would piss off the gun bigots even more.

Yes, it's on a story pointed to before; it's still going to help piss them off.

Added: Yes,  a Nock kit would be interesting.  One with, I guess, rotating barrels for single use?  That'd be something, though a complicated piece of work.

There's a definite lack of blogging lately,

despite some bursts of stuff, and that'll continue for a while.  Busy with various things, and one will get busier in the next week.  We'll see how it goes.

One thing ran across, there's a Eurovision music competition, and the Croats did something that- of course- has the Turks all upset by being honest about some history.

Is anyone else as sick of 'Download our App!' as I am?

'It's more convenient to shop on the app!  It's better to check your medical record on the app!  It's better(for us, but we won't say that) if you confirm your appointment on the app!' and so bloody on.

Oh yes, I'd just love to voluntarily install your spyware, because you're ALL just so trustworthy!

Bleah.  Bullshit.
