WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...

Heavens.

There feels like a change in the pattern where zero (or a tiny handful) of comments appear for a big chunk of the day, with a corresponding decrease in response posts, which at the risk of being deleted I’ll posit as the possible goal of the change. But then when a tranche of comments appears there are a few responses suggesting more than zero comments were visible to those readers. So I wonder if Alphabet Google Blogger is effing with me. Then I just go back to work and resolve to check in again later.

California court rules a bumblebee is a fish under environmental law

A bumblebee is a fish under California law, a California court said in a ruling this week.
And thus, the bumblebee should be protected by the state’s endangered species ordinances, court documents show.
In the case, Almond Alliance of California v. Fish and Game Commission, the California State Appellate Court of the Third District said the "issue presented here is whether the bumblebee, a terrestrial invertebrate, falls within the definition of a fish," according to legal documents.

Well done - a particularp capture.

@gilbar, Remarkably, the court that held a bumblebee to be a fish failed to cite Regina v, Ojibway, a well-known opinion in which a pony was held to be a bird.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard pursue each other through the bowels of the sprawling steel plant complex at Mariupol, on the North coast of the Sea of Azov. Miles of tunnels under the plant conceal what really happened in the fog of war.

Food shortages from the Black Sea blockade ripple across the world as Johnny Depp accuses Amber Heard of pooping on the bed. The nuclear saber-rattling continues as Amber Heard blames the dog. The international crisis bubbles over as NATO expands and Australia considers charging Amber Heard with perjury for her testimony about smuggling the couple’s dogs.

International volunteers from the entertainment-industrial complex stream across the Polish border to defend freedom and are immediately sent to the front. Kate Moss takes aim at Ellen Barkin in a wheat field.

The proxy war shakes the continents.

Kremlin sources claim Putin is wrestling with larger geopolitical questions: should Hollywood be next?

Going back, of late, here at Althouse, I found a running theme of sorts, with words like madman, stupid & weirdos. And a nifty little theory started to appear in the theater of my imagination.

Remember when Trump was president the constant refrain was, what was our madman president tweeting today?

By focusing the public so much on what was defined by the anti-Trump media as madness, stupid and weird, the public may have gathered that as long as we spot crazy, madness, stupid and weird, in time to stop it, everything is going to be ok. Just be on the lookout. That's how we survived the Cold War, remember?

Then Trump losses and while the personification of madness, stupid and weird is no longer in the spotlight, we are still looking for crazy, madness, stupid and weird. (Exhibit A: Heard didn't have a chance). It is while under this state of alert, that suddenly CRT, fluid gender theories and giving hormone blockers to teens starts to sound crazy, mad, stupid and weird.

Did Donald Trump save the country from the real crazy, mad, stupid and weird, from the beyond the presidency? #ConnectTheDots #ImightBeWrong

Uvalde needs a truthful accounting

And while I'm talking about looking back. How worse off would the economy be if deplorable democrat, Sinema and Manchin, hadn't stopped Joe Biden's 'Bild Back Better' boondoggle in the making? I forget how many trillions that was.

Wow! Great pix. If we were robots, we could describe all of that in terms of light frequency, moisture variations, and refraction effects. This is one of the many reasons why it's good not to be a robot.
