Sunrise with ATV and UFO.

 

At 7:16 this morning, video'd from the shore of Lake Mendota.

Yep, that's a alien battlecruiser making a low pass. They're after you, Althouse. Conspicuous free minds must be captured for re-programming.

WHAT was that?? Crazy!!

Althouse has hit Rock Bottom.

The "guy" on the ATV is one of their drones. He looks human, but not quite, if you know what I mean. He (I use that pronoun figuratively) has that Nancy Pelosi look.

Please watch - as a reminder of how backwards, cruel, vicious, insane, anti-women, bigoted, pedo, and awful the corrupt left have become

Foo fighter. St. Elmo's Fire. Dust Speck. Glitch in the Simulation.

Speaking of St. Elmo's Fire: The movie was so iconically '80s that I didn't notice how bad -- at least in the eyes of critics -- it was.

According to Schumacher, "a lot of people turned down the script...the head of [one] major studio called its seven-member cast ‘the most loathsome humans he had ever read on the page.’"

I kind of like it in the summer when the bass boats go screaming by on plane on the horizon. They look like land speeders from the good Star Wars movie.

Statolatry: the literal worship of government; “People frequently call socialism a religion; it is indeed the religion of self-deification” (No Pasarán)

In my mind, it's the deification of the Almighty State, which follows the use of abortion as an article of faith, a sacrament, and a holy obligation. It has its saints, its prelates, acolytes and mercenaries.

From the link:

"Economist Ludwig Von Mises coined the word to describe the literal worship of government. He said: “People frequently call socialism a religion, It is indeed the religion of self-deification.”

Statolatry is about worship for the state to replace a God they have rejected, a relationship with some entity more powerful than themselves to which they swear their love and fealty, the goal of which is to receive blessings (which are drawn the public till).

The people on the statolatrist left have landed on a toxic mixture of statism, politics, mysticism, and atheism rolled up into a loose ball called “progressivism” as a substitute for Judeo-Christian theology. Progressivism is as much a religion as Catholicism, it just replaces a Pope with government, counting on the senior leadership of the Democrat party to be their High Priests.

And in the process, this new religion became a very curious mix of the Tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition (nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!) and the Flagellants, the 13th century group of Roman Catholics who practiced mortification of the flesh by various means. Statolatrists find pleasure in their self-inflicted pain but really enjoy dosing it out to non-believers as well. It is also the harshest of mistresses – if a believer questions any tenet, there is no force on the planet that can protect them from the fury of the scorned. If they show less than total subservience and compliance, they are declared apostates and excommunicated immediately.

The problem is that no one really knows the rules of this new religion – they change to meet the needs of the moment. Often You can be right and wrong at the same time. What you can say or think and who you can say or think certain things about changes every minute – what was acceptable yesterday is not acceptable today and that random asymmetry makes it very difficult to fight on an individual level, so one must attack where the asymmetry is less and where their power resides, where it is concentrated."

A little JJ Abrams action going on in the video. I have an anamorphic lens for my iPhone that can get really awesome lens flares but from light sources that are more indirect than the sun. The image stabilization is built in to the camera so the lens flare will follow the camera but won’t always align with the flow

Why a sign language interpreter. Didn’t they ever hear of closed captioning?
