A New York Times op-ed suggests that everyone should “mate with shorter people” in order to save the planet.
Yes, really.
I always felt kind of sorry for the midget people. She/him short people like Clayton Tucker can’t do a damn thing about being 5’6 – just bad luck. Then again, suckling at mom’s tit until age 32 might be a factor, I suppose. I always felt they should get some kind of discount in life, or something. Like kids eating at an IHOP.
But now the beta male soy boy cucks are trying to convince us that’s a GOOD thing.
Seriously.
Author Mara Altman, claims that “When you mate with shorter people, you’re potentially saving the planet by shrinking the needs of subsequent generations.”
“Lowering the height minimum for prospective partners on your dating profile is a step toward a greener planet,” she adds in the piece.
Altman argues that shorter people are “inherent conservationists, which is more crucial than ever in this world of eight billion,” adding that “if we kept our proportions the same but were just 10 percent shorter in America alone, we would save 87 million tons of food per year (not to mention trillions of gallons of water, quadrillions of B.T.U.s of energy and millions of tons of trash).”
Altman continues, “Short people don’t just save resources, but as resources become scarcer because of the earth’s growing population and global warming, they may also be best suited for long-term survival (and not just because more of us will be able to jam into spaceships when we are forced off this planet we wrecked).”
“Our success as individuals does not depend on beating up other people or animals. Even if it did, in an era of guns and drones, being tall now just makes you a bigger target,” Altman adds, concluding “I want my children’s children to know the value of short.”
Twitter wasted no time in ceaselessly mocking the piece:
It begs the age-old question: if an agreement sits on a desk forever and is never finalized, is it actually an agreement?
When does it cease to be an agreement-in-waiting and become another failed pipe dream of the LEDC? Will they ever admit the deal fell through or are they all running a secret pool to see how many months in a row I’ll ask for this fucking thing?
Remember all of this when morons like Bruce Haywood and Clayton Tucker and the rest of the greentards are cheering for us to go back to the Stone Age because “Global Warming!!” Remember this when your electric bills double and it costs $150 to fill your tank.
Trillions in cost and massively lower standard of living for what? Because these morons THINK the planet MIGHT be 1 degree hotter in 100 years.
Modern doomsayers have been predicting climate and environmental disaster since the 1960s. They continue to do so today.
None of the apocalyptic predictions with due dates as of today have come true.
What follows is a collection of notably wild predictions from notable people in government and science.
More than merely spotlighting the failed predictions, this collection shows that the makers of failed apocalyptic predictions often are individuals holding respected positions in government and science.
While such predictions have been and continue to be enthusiastically reported by a media eager for sensational headlines, the failures are typically not revisited.
Since then the climate catastrophists have only escalated.
And bringing us up to date in 2022…
As CEI reports, climate alarmists and their media allies once again made a slew of claims about natural disasters being caused by man-made emissions in 2022. And once again, these claims clashed with reality and science.
Here are 10 fact checks of climate disaster claims made by the Associated Press and other media outlets in 2022.
The Bottom Line: There is not a single natural disaster, nor trend in any type of natural disaster that can be credibly linked with emissions or whatever gradual “climate change” may be occurring for whatever reason, including natural climate change. Attributing natural disaster damages to emissions and climate change is without a factual or scientific basis. And that certainly goes for 2022.
Regardless of one’s view of what passes as “climate science,” the good news is that even researchers who believe that “climate change” is a problem acknowledge that the number of weather-related deaths and the cost of weather-related damage are actually on the decline – despite ever-increasing emissions and whatever slight warming may be occurring.
I am shocked! Shocked, I tells ya! A fat moron with a history of being incapable of managing her own personal finances and getting herself into $200,000 of personal debt can’t handle her millions in campaign finances? The idiot who personally owes $54,000 in back taxes also bungled her campaign funds?
No way.
To wit:
Abrams was defeated by incumbent Republican Governor Brian Kemp in November even though she had a “record-setting haul” and was a media darling.
“But her campaign’s expenditures have come under sharper scrutiny as new details emerge about the tight cash crunch she faced before her November defeat to Kemp by nearly 8 points,” AJC reporter Greg Bluestein wrote.
According to Axios, “money became so tight that most of the 180 full-time staffers were given an abrupt paycheck cutoff date — just a week after the November election.”
Lauren Groh-Wargo, Abrams campaign manager, told Axios vendors are still owed more than $1 million and that the team is still working to repay debts. The outlets spoke with various insiders who “surfaced new details about profligate spending that led to a dire financial squeeze by the end of the campaign.”
According to Bluestei’s report, former staffers detailed over-the-top expenses, including a home the campaign rented to use for making TikTok videos.
“Some aides commandeered the vacant five-bedroom craftsman-style house, now available to rent at $12,500 a month, as a makeshift office,” Bluestein wrote. “A pop-up shop and ‘swag truck’ were assigned to dispense merchandise, such as T-shirts and hoodies, to win over young voters. But staffers grumbled that there was no apparent strategy behind the giveaways, which they said seemed careless and costly.”
Of course, there are still some people out there (**cough** Potato Head Stephanie Fitzharris ** cough **) who are THEMSELVES so dumb that they think Abrams is some kind of genius…
One obese moron admires another…MY GOD!
Speaking of Potato Head, how’s that AirBnB rental thing going for you? You applied for and got the necessary permits and paid the annual fees for running that thing, right?
It would be a shame if the Austin STR office (STRlicensing@austintexas.gov at 512 974-2000) found out about it and you didn’t have your paperwork in order. A real shame.
Hi! I’m Clayton Tucker. I don’t own a blue truck OR a red truck…or ANY kind of truck, for that matter. Turns out you don’t really need a truck when you are a virtual/fake rancher!
But I do these little photo shoots every now and then to give the impression I am a hard-working rancher – when in actuality, I am unemployed and live with my mom at age 32….
Old staged photo in front of truck that isn’t mine!
New staged photo in front of truck that isn’t mine!
Another year, another pile of idiocy from Radiogram owner Rhonda Witcher. It’s truly amazing that with all the “deadly” Wuhan variants flying around that this 117-year-old liberal fart isn’t dead yet.
Last year, Rhonda Witcher tried to scare you with the ominous “Omnicron” [sic] fear-mongering:
“It’s really important that people do the measures we already know work — getting vaccinated, getting their boosters if eligible, wearing masks indoors, testing before gathering, and practicing physical and social distancing,”
Or maybe Wuhan WASN’T so deadly as Rhonda led you to believe with her scaremongering over the last 2.5 years?
These young people were at essentially ZERO risk from the Wuhan virus. Yet morons like Rhonda and also our own “doctor” Cain at FMC trumpeted REPEATEDLY and LOUDLY that EVERYONE should get the vaccine. Hopefully, they get what they have coming for this disgusting display of ignorance and incompetence.
The city of Lampasas has completed its funding of the water and wastewater infrastructure at the Lampasas Economic Development Corp. Business Park, and roadway and utility work is now complete.
Next up for the LEDC Business Park is solicitation of commercial enterprises to fill it.
Although the city is ready tocommence its marketing efforts, Lampasas remains in need of a full-time economic development director to lead that endeavor. Mandy Walsh, who served in that capacity for five and a half years, resigned at the end of September to pursue other work.
Solicitation of commercial enterprises? Commence marketing efforts? You mean like blowing $15,000 on videos and print ads? Granted, that is very small potatoes compared to the over $7,100,000.00 they have already wasted on this thing.
See how it works? When Talbert and the LEDC wanted to pilfer the City coffers for ANOTHER million bucks, they made it sound like there were prospects just salivating to get in there.
Now that this piece of shit is finally “complete”, there are no prospects to be found. Instead, they have to go out and “solicit commercial enterprises”.
The Big Lie stared appearing WAY BACK in May of 2004!
So I will ask the obvious question AGAIN, as I have been doing for years now: if you are getting all of these many, many requests for acreage from business prospects through the Governor’s office, then why do you need to go out and blow $15,000 to solicit commercial enterprises??? They should be coming to you on a weekly basis, according to your previous statements.
I have to admit, the thing I am MOST looking forward to in 2023 is watching these worms try to fill the Business Pork and then listening to their new lies when they fail to do so.
Robert A. Caro’s epic four-volume biography of former US President Lyndon Johnson is among the most meticulously researched and elegantly written chronicles of the life of a single person. Spanning more than 3,000 pages and stuffed with meticulously detailed notes and sources, The Years of Lyndon Johnson collection makes for a sobering read.
There is one overarching and inescapable conclusion drawn from its pages: Johnson was a grotesquely corrupt person willing to say and do anything to accumulate power and enrich himself.
Elected to Congress in his late twenties, Johnson was known for handing out literal bags of cash to politicians in pursuit of the legislative goals of his powerful commercial sponsors – firms like the military construction outfit Brown & Root (now part of KBR). In 1948, Johnson stole the Texas Democratic primary race for US Senate from his opponent Coke Stevenson. The official tally shows Johnson besting Stevenson by 87 votes out of nearly a million cast, but the election was shrouded in scandal by the sudden appearance of 202 additional votes in Precinct 13 of Jim Wells County, of which 200 were for Johnson. Amazingly, those last 202 votes were cast in alphabetical order.
Johnson proudly made a mockery of his dishonesty, openly referring to himself as “Landslide Lyndon” as he continued his ascension up the US political power ladder.
When Johnson entered Congress, he was dirt poor and obsessed with money. He remained an elected federal official until his term as President ended in 1969 – an unbroken string spanning more than three decades – and yet managed to retire with a fortune that would be valued well in excess of $100 million today. His official explanation for how a public servant could become so rich? His wife, Lady Bird Johnson, effectively grew “the small radio station that [she] paid $17,500 for” into a family of broadcasting interests.
1960s bag of shit
What separates Johnson’s story from other tales of political venality is the vast impact of his legacy. The average US citizen’s trust in government peaked at 77% during Johnson’s time as President and has drifted lower ever since, sitting at just 20% today. He also uncorked an orgy of government spending, both in support of the war in Vietnam and in pursuit of his ambitious domestic agenda. Bigger government means bigger opportunities for grift, and Washington DC’s insatiable and bipartisan appetite for both was irreversibly accelerated by Johnson. Measured as a percentage of gross domestic product, US Federal Government spending has nearly doubled since the 1960s.
Normalization of behavior like Johnson’s has led to a continuing debasement of US politics to the point where scandals that would have previously ended careers are now routinely blown off as standard operating procedure. Today, members of Congress openly and flagrantly trade stocks based on inside information, having gone so far as to carve out an exception that legalizes an activity that is still a crime for the rest of us. Government regulators routinely end up as well-compensated employees of the very companies they are meant to oversee, creating giant and obvious conflicts of interest in the process, and selective use of the powers of government against political opponents is now commonplace. An entire cottage industry of rent-seeking enablers – lobbyists, attorneys, and consultants – dot the interface between the private and public sectors, making it impossible for entrepreneurs to thrive without paying a healthy vig to this state-sponsored mafia.
Today’s bags of shit
As the cancer of corruption grows, so too does the government’s need to corral the outrage and the activities of ordinary citizens. In this regard, one weapon supersedes them all: the ability to control how ordinary citizens transact in the economy. As Ben Hunt brilliantly describes in his excellent pieceIn Praise of Bitcoin, the goal of the US government is to see and preside over all the money in the world because once that power is obtained, it’s game over. Here’s a key passage (emphasis in the original):
“That’s really all it is. That’s what Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations are all about. That’s what Know Your Client (KYC) regulations are all about. That’s what Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR) regulations are all about. That’s what the Treasury-led Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT) is all about. That’s what the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) is all about. None of these programs are really about taxes. None of these programs are really about catching crooks or fighting terrorists. All of these programs are really about information for information’s sake regarding the greatest source of power in the world and the raison d’etre of every government on Earth: money.”
Buried in the noise and drama surrounding the ongoing collapse of the crypto sector are disturbing developments in tangentially related technologies that look set to snuff out the last vestiges of individual privacy: central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). Just as the shock of 9/11 was leveraged to roll back basic freedoms in the name of security, so too will the deep criminality exposed in the digital assets space be used to justify a terrifying shift in the way all citizens interact with each other in the economy.
I knew from the very first day that the whole Ukraine thing was a scam. You know how I knew? Because two of the biggest morons around these parts quickly got rid of their “I’m vaxxed and boosted! I’m masked up!” filters on their profile pics and threw a Ukrainian flag onto their profile pic LITERALLY overnight.
In fact, socialist scumbag Clayton Tucker even hung a Ukrainian FLAG from his parents’ house, where he currently resides.
They told us the war would be over soon because Putin had cancer, the Russian troops were getting stuck in the mud, they didn’t like the cold weather, blah, blah, blah. Well, here we are $100 BILLION later, and it’s still going. We have sent them FAR more than the Russian military spends themselves for their ENTIRE MILITARY BUDGET.
So you’ve outspent your opponent by 150% and you are still getting your asses kicked, according to that worm Zelensky? What does that tell you? It tells me that most of that money is disappearing into the pockets of scumbags. Or else you are COLOSSALY inept.
That is because they are all very likely in on this slush fund and getting kickbacks – because they are all completely corrupt scumbags.
Funny – comrade Clayton has quietly removed his Ukraine flag and so has Potato Head Steph as she YET AGAIN erased all evidence of her past stupidity in supporting a stupid cause (masks, vaccines, Biden, etc).
Say that reminds me: how have gasoline prices managed to come down so far if Putin is still at war with Ukraine? I thought it was “Putin’s price hike”? At least, that’s a local retarded land whale named Bruce Haywood was saying all summer when gas prices were exploding.
Not only did the war not end, but we are throwing even MORE money at it.
I shit on all of you lefty scumbags…as well as Mitch McConnell and other RINO scum.
