When I saw the pictures of the opening ceremony I didn’t think of the last supper, I thought of Bacchus
If Josh Shapiro really is the Democrat VP nominee and Harris/Shapiro are elected they can quickly dispose of Harris and Israel will finally have the US president they really want.
Back in the day a WW2 vet I knew as a kid said that in the pacific theater if you left camp and tried to return there was a daily password to get back in. One day the password was “What is the third verse of the Star Spangled Banner.” Anyone who could answer was shot. That’s a good Turing test too. Anyone who knows that is not human.
Of course if the order is not A – B – C – D -E you just reorder to columns and the same logic holds.
Impressed by apsnaz’s analysis I drew this to illustrate why his 7 horse solution is correct:
After the first 5 races and the race of the top in each group only the horses above the double line can possibly be one of the three fastest. A1 is already proven the fastest and there are only 5 other horses that need to be in the 7th race to determine 2nd and 3rd.
This just might be the most American thing I have ever heard of.
The “most American thing” was not the self-immolation itself but the peace officers responding by drawing their weapons. Reminds me of Fouad Kaady who was found naked and bloody in the road with his car on fire and who was then tazed and shot by peace officers within a minute of their arriving on the scene.
Saw a Reddit post about where to get the most recent booster in my city this was in the comments:
Just coming out of my second COVID infection (last one was a year ago). This kicked my ass almost as bad, and I’ve had four shots already. Whatever the current variant is, is really nasty. Though I know others who had much milder symptoms.
How long do you have to wait for a booster, after an infection?As Einstein said insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results.
They have to keep Joe Biden as a candidate for president in 2024 until they can force RFK Jr. to go third party. If Joe folds before that, RFK Jr. will be in the debates and cause all kinds of problems. Once he has gone third party they can make Newsom the Democrat candidate knowing that RFK Jr. will get more Republican votes than Democrat votes and Newsom will be elected. To further hedge their bets they can take Joe out in 2024, make Newsom the VP and then have Harris resign. Then Newsom can run as the incumbent, war President. But they have to prop Joe up until RFK Jr. makes his move.
… democrat callers would have none of it. Republican callers were delighted …
If 20204 is Trump vs Biden and RFK Jr goes third party he will take more votes from Trump than Biden. The Democrats must love this.

If 20204 is Trump vs Biden and RFK Jr goes third party he will take more votes from Trump than Biden. Same with Desantis vs Newsom. The Democrats must love this.
Here is the answer to the puzzle according to WhatsApp
(5+5+10+4) x 2= 48
But order of operations evaluates multiplication before addition so
5+((5+10+4) x 2)= 43
Michael Angelo also sculpted the Madonna and Child, now in Bruges, Belgium. The same woman, only younger. Also not possible.
After watching RFK Jr claim that Thimerosal isn’t safe I googled “is thimerosal safe” and all the results on the page said it is with no evidence to the contrary. I then googled “study showing thimerosal is safe”.
This was the first hit.
When I tried to post the abstract I got the anti-spam screen here on TAE.Reading Biden’s executive order it looks like it only applies to the Coast Guard though it’s confusing and hard to tell. It specifically mentions the Individual Ready Reserve and if you google that it sends you to the Coast Guard. Is it really all armed forces or just the Coast Guard that is affected?
Who is Bill Browder?
There is a movie called “The Magnitsky Act. Behind the Scenes” that features Browder. The director, Andrey Nekrasov, claims he was going to make a movie about corruption in the Russian government and how Magnitsky, who was Browder’s accountant, was wrongly imprisoned and then essentially murdered in prison. This was the justification for the Magnitsky act in the US that sanctioned high level Russians. The Magnitsky act was championed by John McCain and others. Nekrasov says in the movie that the more he learned about the incident the less he believed it until he ended up making a movie that was just the opposite. He interviews Browder in the movie. Browder thinks Nekrasov is a friendly and gladly answers questions until it becomes obvious that Browder is now the target at which point he walks out of the interview. The film is convincing but is of course just one side of the story.
I have a Russian co-worker and when I mentioned Magnitsky he repeated the MSM Putin-government-bad-thankyou-John-McCain line. He hadn’t seen the movie and had zero interest in watching it. I asked if he thought Browder was a good guy but he had never heard of him. I asked about John McCain and he said that though McCain had done some bad things he had also done some good things. He said that Nekrasov used to be a respected director who had called out Putin but had now gone over to the dark side, probably for money. My coworker is very anti-Putin and since he is Russian I have to believe he knows things I don’t.
I still think Neskarov’s position is more correct but it’s interesting to hear the other side. As with so many things it’s hard to know what the truth of the matter really is.Russia confirms that they are launching a BRICS currency backed by #gold.
Prediction: Those owning gold will be demonized as Putin supporters and confiscation will be the natural course of action.
According to the NYT the missile that hit Kramatorks destroyed the Ria Lounge Bar. You can find the Ria Lounge Bar on google maps and see the surrounding buildings.
Here is a NY Times Picture of the missile strike. Something doesn’t add up.The graphs didn’t make is so I’ll try again
Graph showing chances of Covid are worse with number of vaxx doses
Graph showing effectiveness of bivalent booster compared to those with no bivalent booster
@Germ
Thanks for the Joseph Fraiman link. Clicking through, the study the Results say:
“The risk of COVID-19 also increased with time since the most recent prior COVID-19 episode and with the number of vaccine doses previously received”
This is based on this stunning graph:
But the Conclusion says:
“The bivalent COVID-19 vaccine given to working-aged adults afforded modest protection overall against COVID-19”
This is based on this lackluster graph, and note this graph compares the bivalent with the non-bivalanted including people with multiple boosters:
I am guessing that a graph of the bivalented vs just the non-vaxxed would show the bivalented much worse off.
The Conclusion doesn’t mention that triple boosted are 4 times more likely to get Covid than the non-vaxxed. A reasonable person would make this the conclusion of the study. Maybe they did what they did because otherwise it wouldn’t get published.
I have seen the increased risk of Covid with boostedness personally. My triple boosted boss who nearly fired me for not getting vaxxed just had his second bout of Covid in 6 months. He was out for a week but waxed rapturous about how effective a 5 day course of Paxlovid was. He is otherwise a good boss.Whereas the mythical narratives of other great powers were cruelly self-centered, American scripture was—and remains today—“To Serve Man”.
True, except it isn’t scripture, it’s a cookbook.
Here’s a scary one I’ve seen from different writers:
Russian Nukes Don’t Work
So bomb Crimea or even Moscow. No worries. Russian nuclear weapons are impotent.Joseph of Egypt. Yes he stored the surplus but he bought low and sold high. When the famine hit the very farmers who had grown the surplus traded their money, then their animals, then their land and then became perpetual share croppers to get fed. Joseph’s relatives however got fed for free. Joseph was a proto-billionaire. It’s all there in chapter 47 of Genesis.
@Polemos
Your comment needs to be read with coworker pronounced cow-orkerHere’s all 51 of them
Someone should make a deck of playing cards with their faces. Hunter could be the king of hearts. Joe could be the joker.
@DBS
“The leader of Russia going around actually going to where the work he ordered was being done, and inspecting how well the job was being done.”
How often do we see US presidents listening instead of doing all the talking? I read that JFK used to pick his child up from school and ask the mothers there what they thought about his policies. Those days are long gone.
