As if the Washington team formerly known as the Redskins didn’t have enough trouble. Now I read that fifteen current and former female employees of the organization are suing, claiming harassment. It just gets better and better.
Here in Maine the numbers are still very low. There will be golf, cocktails out, and some beach time this weekend. I will wear my mask when expected, not because I believe it makes any difference but to stop you know who from yelling at me.
Still no reporting on the studies showing that children do not transmit the virus to adults. Still plenty of talk about how we must cautiously, if at all, open the schools. So called Responsible Covid response has become a cult of which I am not a member.
I've been thinking about the White Culture poster that the National Museum of American History and Culture (part of the Smithsonian in Washington, DC) and the White Supremacy Culture slide from the New York City schools posted the other day, and although it's definitely a real issue, since things like this are becoming increasingly prevalent in the schools, it is unfortunate because it kind of hides what is going on.
I mean for people my age, and even decades younger, it is easy to reject this. And so we think this is a problem that can easily be surmounted because it is so obviously crazy. But I'm not so sure it's that easy for children to reject this who are taught this from a young age when they become adults.
What we need to do, if we can, is to destroy the schools and then rebuild them from the ground up. Because if we don't they are going to kill us or are grandchildren.
And these posters and slides are misleading. I don't know whether it is accidental or deliberate but this is the sugar-coated version of what the schools are teaching. What the schools are teaching is that white people are evil.
That sound you’re hearing is classical music’s long overdue reckoning with racism
"Data collected from 500 American orchestras for a 2016 study by the League of American Orchestras paints a starkly white picture when it comes to diversity in classical organizations. Its key finding: the “proportion of nonwhite musicians represented in the orchestra workforce — and of African American and Hispanic/Latino musicians in particular — remains extremely low.”
How many shows has NBC had in their history with racist blackface performances?
I know of The Office, and I've heard about 30 Rock. This is within the last two decades.
Why isn't the racist NBC erased like the racist NFL is going to be erased?
Blacks can do twice as good with half the effort of whites if only just given a mere chance, and we will all see soon a non-racist league of football. Imagine the greatness without all the racism pervading every breath every black body in the NFL now takes?
Netflix was a first mover into a marketplace that had little competition. Now that every other media company is putting its own content on demand, Netflix has lost its primary advantage. Plus, they overpaid for 'talent' like the Obamas. Poor choices on that.
As their rights to others' intellectual property come to a natural end, Netflix has little to offer.
I think Netflix will exist in 5 years. And so will MySpace.
MSNBC going bonkers that Mary Trump told Maddow that she heard Donald Trump say the N-word. Decades ago. Much more important than the fact that his incompetence led to the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans; and some say the worst is yet to come.
“I can definitely understand, based on things I have tweeted and have written in the past, why some people don’t believe me.”
Joy Reid Loses To La Liberte: MSNBC Host Creates New Precedent Binding Media
"She was sued in one of the most notorious postings on social media by Roslyn La Liberte, a Trump supporter, who was trashed by Reid for comments that she never made and an account that proved to be untrue. Reid relied on California’s Anti-Slapp statute and immunity arguments to try to force La Liberte out of court, even though she again later apologized. Now the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit has handed down a major ruling against Reid that could undermine future defenses by media figures."
Consider niece Mary T. as daughter Maude L. and it all makes more sense. "The money was all mothers" since she must have started an amazing company like the Kardashians, or like Oprah. Just, really, helped, all people, achieve true empowerment. Better than any religion. Better than anyone who designed or sold or beneficially critiqued something practiful in usecul terms.
Maude determined she owned the dude's body and got "consent" of anal play through deceit, plus the stealing of the dude's sperm without a contract. Maude ought be in prison because of her deception and lies. And, also, she is only a mere white woman, responsible for extreme violence in America against black bodies. Voting for Democrats make it worse, as they minimize the pain.
It makes his position seem reasonable, and I have promoted it. Out of chaos, order.
It is my fault things have gotten this far. I will keep in mind that.
Speaking as a small (13% minority) minority although simultaneously a very large individual Michael D. Clarke?? isn't listened to, as a second rate person behind the star, the whacked-out super lefty prog driver (movie star, singer star, porn star, podcast star, instagram star, youtube star, sports star, writer star, producer star, director star, etc) and foolish pain ensues.
And the non-whacked out white guy kind of laughs at it all knowing what's gonna happen but unwilling, afraid, to say anything to actually prevent the foolish pain.
Crack as Clarke?? is saying hey now, don't stab that knife in your leg to random, random kinda to him I assume here at the Althouse blog, white people. It is a message that needs to be said, but not necessarily anywhere beyond the prog freaks he lives amongst--because they are the only ones with the knives-- but they are all so farly fucked it is no use, so he says it here.
I believe there is value in this valid information. If someone says they want to kill you, by God listen. If someone says he is trying to help, listen and learn.

On the depressing depressing religion thread (they all depress me, but only a few are actively eager to kill me so I don't worry about the others so much) I read a lot about what atheists believe, and as a self-described atheist I don't recognize myself.
A digression on my label. A classic formulation of atheism is 1) disbelief in a personal God and 2) denial of a future state of rewards and punishments. It is my considered (after some study) opinion, and my personal hunch that afterlives are wishful thinking--and often don't sound all that attractive.
Nor am I spiritual. I just don't resonate to those tones.
"Sadly, our cultural and political elites long ago abandoned an honest commitment to oppose racism and prejudice in all its forms. Now we're just having a vicious no-holds-barred fight over which races are inferior. It's no surprise at all that we ended up here. It's the inevitable result of insisting that not all racial discrimination is bad, not all animosity is an evil, and not all racial supremacy theories are wrong. At that point it becomes a power struggle, not a quest for harmony."
Do other people hear "Gorka" and think "GOOOOORRRRKAAAAHHHHH!!!" like I do?
There are places to get help, such as the place your mind goes playing an instrument of music. Listening can be the opposite of playing here though, be careful.
I'm not supposed to share this but I have until midnight to be a member of the Trump VIP Club. $5. Which means they will repeat the offer tomorrow. Thank goodness for spam filters.
If we replace all the born cis-males in the crabbing industry, with females, we can reduce the cost of crab to the consumer by 27% across the board while increasing safety of all kinds, thereby reducing costs significantly for producers.
Only hatred of women has prevented this change from happening so far.
It's called mysoginy. And it's real. And it's not a damn joke.
The Sweden / Michigan comparison seems to have turned out as I hoped and expected. Sweden did not take the top down draconian shutdown measures done here, yet performed about the same and in these later days, better. Compared to Michigan so far they did better at roughly 80 per million less deaths, despite starting out higher. They are not seeing the resurgence seen here. They have had a week of 2 or less deaths per day, although yesterday they had 10, but Michigan had 18.
Basically they took a non-politicized approach, and were not interested in destroying their economy, nor did they have leaders throwing political weight around and threatening their own citizens. Also, no "mostly peaceful protests".
"What does a non-politicized public health policy look like?"
The only reason all-women teams of crabbers haven't beaten bloody these white male hetersexual identifiers is because of hatred of women, and blacks too (really we mean it this time BLACKS).
No women have any money anywhere, and never have, to invest in women fishing crab. Men don't do it because men are bad haters who would never dream of investing in anything to do with a woman. Because of racism. And sexism. And fear of lesbians and their damn islands.
The @NYCMayor is announcing a plan to provide child care for 100K NYC children in the fall. It will use community centers and organizations, libraries and other space to set up care. The number of spots he says could increase in the fall.
So kids will get sick in school, but not child care?
DE BLASIO: “We now have fewer people in our jails than any time since WW2 and we are safer for it and better for it” ( Last week saw a 600% increase in shootings)
"Dow Jones futures and S&P 500 futures were little changed vs. fair value late Thursday, while Nasdaq futures fell modestly on a Netflix (NFLX) earnings miss and weak subscriber guidance. The coronavirus stock market rally retreated Thursday, closing near session highs but with growth names lagging again. Earnings season adds another layer of risk for investors.
Netflix stock plunged in late trade, wiping out nearly all the gains from its most-recent consolidation. Netflix earnings were disappointing. Meanwhile, Netflix subscriber growth was strong, but the internet TV streaming giant forecast weak gains for the current quarter." Perhaps going back to work means less Netflix and chill.
As covid deaths continue to go down- restrictions on freedom by Dictator Cuomo and others of his ilk go up.
Why? There has to be a reason- and all of the possible reasons lead to what would have once been outlandish conspiracy theories.
And what's really hysterical? Going to threadreaperapp dot com and reading all the threads about how what Trump is doing is leading to him establishing a dictatorship as he violates people's rights....
There's a group of people out of touch with reality. It's either people like me- or anti-Trumpers.
Birkel said... Netflix was a first mover into a marketplace that had little competition. Now that every other media company is putting its own content on demand, Netflix has lost its primary advantage. Plus, they overpaid for 'talent' like the Obamas.
Your mistake there is thinking they overpaid for 'talent" like the Obamas. They didn't pay anything for supposed future Obama productions. The Obama money- already paid out, is a payoff for services rendered, probably laundered through Netflix from others all nice and legal like.
It's like the huge advance given to Hillary for her last book- which I think was remaindered the day it was released. I bought the hardcover for $0.99. (Still haven't read it- it's in a pile somewhere.) No possible way for it to make the advance she was given for it. If a publisher were to offer Trump the same deal as he leaves office- Democrat prosecutors would jump on prosecuting the publishing house-even as the book achieved best seller status because it would be both readable and entertaining- and mostly written by a ghostwriter with Trump input.
On a highly personal note, I got new crowns for my front teeth today, replacing ones that were ~30 years old. The improvements in technology in the intervening decades are astounding.
The reason I have crowns is because I was given tetracycline as a baby so many of my permanent teeth came in without enamel. It's not a good look, and it has had varying levels of psychological effects on me over the years. But having ugly or obviously fake teeth is something I've been dealing with my whole life. I wonder what it will be like now that all my teeth look natural?
Dentistry/orthodontia and eye care are two medical areas that are mostly out of the regular health insurance loop, and it seems to me they have had the most rapid advancements in treatments while simultaneously lowering costs to patients. Just think how the rest of medical care could operate if they could get out from under the health insurance bureaucracy. (Stanislaw Lem wrote a charming fable about the lethality of paperwork in The Cyberiad, highly recommended.)
American stocks are selling at the highest multiples of earnings and revenues in history. They are too expensive to match reality.
The people who piled into NFLX in this last rush were hoping for a spike on earnings. Earnings were released after the close yesterday; when no buying spike materialized, there was a rapid dump.
----Here's Joe Rogan with the Bari Weiss I'm familiar with. She's a BAD JOURNALIST. Now she's lost her job, when I WANTED her to lose her job, back when that Rogan clip was made.
It wasn't a Rogan clip at all. It was a clip from something called the Jimmy Dore Show, which seems to consist of half a dozen unfunny people who imagine they are funny. Awful dreck. Unwatchable.
---American stocks are selling at the highest multiples of earnings and revenues in history. They are too expensive to match reality.
One simple chart to show what that means. Covers the last five decades, only. The peak of 1929 was also very high, but not quite as high as 2000 and today.
Something I think everyone should read. You can find the complete article here, https://skipmoen.com/2020/07/its-later-than-i-thought/
It’s Later Than I Thought By Skip Moen, Ph.D. / July 17, 2020
(A politically-incorrect evaluation)
I thought it wouldn’t happen until my grandchildren had to deal with it. I thought I had time. My children might notice real differences, but the truly horrible impact would be later.
I was wrong.
Since the first time I visited South Africa, I would tell my American acquaintances that if they wanted to see where America was heading, they should fly to Johannesburg with me. That was ten years ago. The continual political corruption, the collapse of a work-ethic culture, the flight of prosperity and the ubiquitous presence of racial tension defines South Africa. Forget Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu. South Africa is far from a “rainbow nation.” As I used to say, “It’s a Black and White nightmare.” People I knew who live there used the phrase, “a culture of theft.” Everything was racist. I remember my shock at reading employment ads that stated, “Whites need not apply.” But I always got on an airplane and flew back to “safe” America. Occasionally, I saw hints of this kind of collapse but I didn’t think it would boil into revolution in my lifetime. I wasn’t so sure about the world of my grandchildren.
Since the Washington Redskins football team is going to change their name, and the fans like to call the team "the skins", why not change the name to "The Four Skins"?
Sweden is at 550 deaths per million, the USA at 422 so if you know they did better, please tell me Saturday night’s winning lotto numbers. If you compare them to like countries in Scandinavia, it’s far worse for Sweden. Sweden ranks with the countries that got hit hard first before we knew what was going on, for which there is no excuse for them. We got hit in NYC which had Sweden like policies as the virus got out of control there, which accounts for a large percentage of our deaths. The UK also followed a Sweden like policy until the deaths became unacceptable and there they are in the top three too.
What you are engaging in is called motivated reasoning. You want something to be true really badly so you don’t critically examine your position.
On a side note, there was a statistical analysis that showed that banning cholorquinine led to a jump in the death rate and lifting the ban led directly to a drop. How many people did the DNC media kill just to try to score points against Trump? Thousands? Maybe. Michigan is a place where it was banned.
"Today we invite you to create significant impact through a modest gesture. Here's how: Give $5 to WGBH to support the programming that makes a difference in your life. That's Five Buck Friday!"
Gonna spend my $5 on Donut Friday for me and the missus.

Then again, from Kiddushin 49b:

Ten kav of brazenness descended to the world; Meishan, near Babylonia, took nine and the rest of the world took one. Ten kav of conversation descended to the world; women took nine and the rest of the world took one. Ten kav of drunkenness descended to the world; the Kushites took nine and the rest of the world took one. Ten kav of sleep descended to the world; slaves took nine and all the rest of the world in its entirety took one.
“MSNBC going bonkers that Mary Trump told Maddow that she heard Donald Trump say the N-word.“
Why would she not say that, it sells more books. I assume she will next say he molested her. I hope Trump sues her for violation of the non disclosure contract and she has to forfeit all her libel money, Trump can donate it all to charity.
Motivated reasoning? Like believing the things that support your thesis (deaths attributed to Winnie Xi Flu) when presented by the same MSM that you ignore in another context (HCQ + zinc)?
Interesting.
Meanwhile the deaths per million reported by each state are ALL lower than the total figure reported for the country. Math.
So long as Mary Trump's expose proves to be no harm to President Donald Trump, as it so far seems to be, the Uncle Donald can let her have her 15 minutes of fame and any income she receives from it. Doing so would prove her central argument wrong.
"What you are engaging in is called motivated reasoning. You want something to be true really badly so you don’t critically examine your position."
What you are engaging in is moving the goal posts. I have been comparing these two populations since this began, without knowing how it would turn out. You are using hindsight to cherry pick your comparison, and imagining that is scientific. It's not. There are populations that did better and worse, including nearby ones in Europe, but Sweden was unique in its approach, and yet did not suffer especially for it. That's the point. Some places have destroyed their economies, which will lead to even more deaths than the virus did.

Netflix fell 10% in after-hours trading after a good earnings report today.
As if the Washington team formerly known as the Redskins didn’t have enough trouble. Now I read that fifteen current and former female employees of the organization are suing, claiming harassment. It just gets better and better.

The lies are unraveling:

And what's really hysterical? Going to threadreaperapp dot com and reading all the threads about how what Trump is doing is leading to him establishing a dictatorship as he violates people's rights....
There's a group of people out of touch with reality. It's either people like me- or anti-Trumpers.
Mary Trump seems like a sad relative to me, I have a few of those. Blessings to her.

Netflix was a first mover into a marketplace that had little competition.
Now that every other media company is putting its own content on demand, Netflix has lost its primary advantage.
Plus, they overpaid for 'talent' like the Obamas.
Your mistake there is thinking they overpaid for 'talent" like the Obamas. They didn't pay anything for supposed future Obama productions. The Obama money- already paid out, is a payoff for services rendered, probably laundered through Netflix from others all nice and legal like.
It's like the huge advance given to Hillary for her last book- which I think was remaindered the day it was released. I bought the hardcover for $0.99. (Still haven't read it- it's in a pile somewhere.) No possible way for it to make the advance she was given for it. If a publisher were to offer Trump the same deal as he leaves office- Democrat prosecutors would jump on prosecuting the publishing house-even as the book achieved best seller status because it would be both readable and entertaining- and mostly written by a ghostwriter with Trump input.
On a highly personal note, I got new crowns for my front teeth today, replacing ones that were ~30 years old. The improvements in technology in the intervening decades are astounding.
The reason I have crowns is because I was given tetracycline as a baby so many of my permanent teeth came in without enamel. It's not a good look, and it has had varying levels of psychological effects on me over the years. But having ugly or obviously fake teeth is something I've been dealing with my whole life. I wonder what it will be like now that all my teeth look natural?
Dentistry/orthodontia and eye care are two medical areas that are mostly out of the regular health insurance loop, and it seems to me they have had the most rapid advancements in treatments while simultaneously lowering costs to patients. Just think how the rest of medical care could operate if they could get out from under the health insurance bureaucracy. (Stanislaw Lem wrote a charming fable about the lethality of paperwork in The Cyberiad, highly recommended.)
I live in a world that's not normal.
Here's Joe Rogan with the Bari Weiss I'm familiar with. She's a BAD JOURNALIST. Now she's lost her job, when I WANTED her to lose her job, back when that Rogan clip was made.
I've wanted Andrew Sullivan to lose his job ever since he said he was shocked to discover Obama was a Leo, but he's still treated like an important journalist.
In this world, that's how important journalists talk, I guess. In the real world, that's how people talk who don't want jobs in journalism.
This is but one way I think the Enlightenment's been disrespected, and America let down.
"Now we're just having a vicious no-holds-barred fight over which races are inferior."
Only whites are being projected as inferior by anyone.
"Kai..why?" [lb]
American stocks are selling at the highest multiples of earnings and revenues in history. They are too expensive to match reality.
The people who piled into NFLX in this last rush were hoping for a spike on earnings. Earnings were released after the close yesterday; when no buying spike materialized, there was a rapid dump.
"I'm not supposed to share this but I have until midnight to be a member of the Trump VIP Club. $5." [Readering]
Hope you joined. Any other clubs seeking you?
Guild.
Funny as shit.
----Here's Joe Rogan with the Bari Weiss I'm familiar with. She's a BAD JOURNALIST. Now she's lost her job, when I WANTED her to lose her job, back when that Rogan clip was made.
It wasn't a Rogan clip at all. It was a clip from something called the Jimmy Dore Show, which seems to consist of half a dozen unfunny people who imagine they are funny. Awful dreck. Unwatchable.

One simple chart to show what that means. Covers the last five decades, only. The peak of 1929 was also very high, but not quite as high as 2000 and today.

It’s Later Than I Thought
By Skip Moen, Ph.D. / July 17, 2020
(A politically-incorrect evaluation)
I thought it wouldn’t happen until my grandchildren had to deal with it. I thought I had time. My children might notice real differences, but the truly horrible impact would be later.
I was wrong.
Since the first time I visited South Africa, I would tell my American acquaintances that if they wanted to see where America was heading, they should fly to Johannesburg with me. That was ten years ago. The continual political corruption, the collapse of a work-ethic culture, the flight of prosperity and the ubiquitous presence of racial tension defines South Africa. Forget Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu. South Africa is far from a “rainbow nation.” As I used to say, “It’s a Black and White nightmare.” People I knew who live there used the phrase, “a culture of theft.” Everything was racist. I remember my shock at reading employment ads that stated, “Whites need not apply.” But I always got on an airplane and flew back to “safe” America. Occasionally, I saw hints of this kind of collapse but I didn’t think it would boil into revolution in my lifetime. I wasn’t so sure about the world of my grandchildren.
I was wrong.
Netflix paid the money to Obama for the same reason Putin paid the money to Hillary. Political protection.
Putin backed the wrong horse.
Since the Washington Redskins football team is going to change their name, and the fans like to call the team "the skins", why not change the name to "The Four Skins"?
Sweden is at 550 deaths per million, the USA at 422 so if you know they did better, please tell me Saturday night’s winning lotto numbers. If you compare them to like countries in Scandinavia, it’s far worse for Sweden. Sweden ranks with the countries that got hit hard first before we knew what was going on, for which there is no excuse for them. We got hit in NYC which had Sweden like policies as the virus got out of control there, which accounts for a large percentage of our deaths. The UK also followed a Sweden like policy until the deaths became unacceptable and there they are in the top three too.
What you are engaging in is called motivated reasoning. You want something to be true really badly so you don’t critically examine your position.
On a side note, there was a statistical analysis that showed that banning cholorquinine led to a jump in the death rate and lifting the ban led directly to a drop. How many people did the DNC media kill just to try to score points against Trump? Thousands? Maybe. Michigan is a place where it was banned.
I've been invited to contribute $5 too!
"Today we invite you to create significant impact through a modest gesture. Here's how: Give $5 to WGBH to support the programming that makes a difference in your life. That's Five Buck Friday!"
Gonna spend my $5 on Donut Friday for me and the missus.

Consider niece Mary T. as daughter Maude L. and it all makes more sense.
Honestly, what the what are you talking about?

Then again, from Kiddushin 49b:

Ten kav of brazenness descended to the world; Meishan, near Babylonia, took nine and the rest of the world took one. Ten kav of conversation descended to the world; women took nine and the rest of the world took one. Ten kav of drunkenness descended to the world; the Kushites took nine and the rest of the world took one. Ten kav of sleep descended to the world; slaves took nine and all the rest of the world in its entirety took one.
I would never join a club that would have me as a member
“MSNBC going bonkers that Mary Trump told Maddow that she heard Donald Trump say the N-word.“
Why would she not say that, it sells more books. I assume she will next say he molested her. I hope Trump sues her for violation of the non disclosure contract and she has to forfeit all her libel money, Trump can donate it all to charity.
Why? There has to be a reason- and all of the possible reasons lead to what would have once been outlandish conspiracy theories.
Governor Inslee has issued a state order that everyone wear masks because.........data says we should.
Wearing masks will be over on Nov. 4. The day after the election.
Inslee thinks that wearing masks will remind everyone that Trump brought you virus. Like tying a yellow ribbon around the old oak tree.
Inslee is actually up for re-election, but you have to leave the Seattle news bubble to know that!!
Motivated reasoning?
Like believing the things that support your thesis (deaths attributed to Winnie Xi Flu) when presented by the same MSM that you ignore in another context (HCQ + zinc)?
Interesting.
Meanwhile the deaths per million reported by each state are ALL lower than the total figure reported for the country.
Math.
So long as Mary Trump's expose proves to be no harm to President Donald Trump, as it so far seems to be, the Uncle Donald can let her have her 15 minutes of fame and any income she receives from it. Doing so would prove her central argument wrong.
"What you are engaging in is called motivated reasoning. You want something to be true really badly so you don’t critically examine your position."
What you are engaging in is moving the goal posts. I have been comparing these two populations since this began, without knowing how it would turn out. You are using hindsight to cherry pick your comparison, and imagining that is scientific. It's not. There are populations that did better and worse, including nearby ones in Europe, but Sweden was unique in its approach, and yet did not suffer especially for it. That's the point. Some places have destroyed their economies, which will lead to even more deaths than the virus did.
