  1. Naw, Rooftop Trump would have a Mini-Gun, six barrels of belt fed freedom, oh and an Eagle on his shoulder and Melania with another reload standing by, the mini-gun would be named ‘You’re Fired Bitch’…

    2. I have been lucky enough to meet and chat with a fair number of WWII vets, and I have never met one who was not thankful for Fat Man and Little Boy being actually combat dropped.

      1. I spent 3 years in Okinawa. Did a lot of ‘battlefield’ tours and spoke with a lot of Okinawans. The Japanese lies and propaganda (I know, that’s redundant) got tens of thousands of more Okinawans killed who would have otherwise lived. Invasion of the main islands of Japan would have been far worse, and killed millions. From a probable body count, using the nukes, both of them, to drive home that there was no win possible, saved far more lives on both sides than were lost in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Was it horrible? Of course. But you know what? Not any more horrible proportionally than the firebombing of Tokyo (100,000 dead and over a million homeless) or Dresden (25,000 dead). Shock and awe to break the spirit of the enemy works faster than slowly turning up the heat, and uses less resources.

        1. Yep. I worked for a gentleman who would have been repairing P-47s on the beaches of Japan, under fire, had we invaded. His description of how grateful he was to Truman is NSFW but heartfelt! Ditto Grandpa Karl, who was training to jump onto Japan (had survived D-Day, Market Garden, Bastogne, and Wesel.)

        2. And even after the Nagasaki bomb was dropped, there was still a coup attempt by some of the Japanese military to seize the recording of the Emperor announcing Japan’s surrender, so that the war would keep going. Ironically the tape was hidden as part of the effort to stop the coup by descendant of the last reigning Tokugawa Shogun.

    2. Had a sergeant who had been supply sgt in ROK (twice actually). She was with Cav one time; said they didn’t road march anywhere—those guys sling loaded everything!

  8. I actually met someone once whose emotional support animal was a chicken. A live one. She was wheeling it around a market in her shopping cart like people do with their kids or dogs.

  10. Was the positioning of the Gloria and school zone memes intentional, or in other words, did anybody else automatically read “school zone monday through friday” to the tune?

    1. I thought I counted 18 syllables. If I cool down enough after mowing the lawn, I might dig in my wife’s music books and check how many notes, which ought to coincide with the syllable count.

    1. Same! Kind of… I didn’t contribute any of the actual meme images, but I did start the conversation that gave this Saturday’s meme drop its possum theme. Probably as close as I’m ever going to get to 15 minutes of fame. :)

  13. Reading the ‘men that just want to be left alone’ meme now it struck me, It’s the whole plot of The Outlaw Josey Wales. Now I have something to go watch again.

      1. I’m triggered. That man wrote that idea better than some of my recent musings and outlines probably would have gone.

        One, an overly elaborate and flawed model that involves looking at idea patterns within conspiracy notions.

        Two, scientific ‘ways of knowing’ are kinda worthless if they only have roots within a university in-group, and they can monkey-dance themselves to hatred of the ‘uneducated’ by refusing to confront that their persuasion efforts have little moral force if they are completely alien to the general public’s ‘ways of knowing’. (IE, the insanity of AGW ‘all human behavior ought to be under totalitarian control’ versus the Christian inference that God would not set up the world to require Christians to perform evil acts of human sacrifice.)

        Three, there is maybe little ‘scientific integrity’ left to harm at some universities, and no Biden regime ‘attempts to insulate science from political interference’ can be plausible as anything but political interference.

        Four, that the tools of testing academic theory are worth less in the hands of those addicted to leader magic, to consensus magic, and to theorist magic.

        My ideas are maybe significantly better communicated when I restrict myself to a short budget, than when I allow myself to choke to death on length. Length that I may not need, or may not use.

        1. Re Climate “Science”: Just within the models there is a bunch of “first assume a spherical cow” in solar irradiance input forcing – see https://data.giss.nasa.gov/modelforce/solar.irradiance/ on the GISS model where you will find the text:

          Extrapolations from the end of the series are based on an exactly repeating 11-yr copy of the previous cycle.

          …so no change forever, an eternally repeating copy of the most recent 11 year solar cycle. That’s the model.

          Look at the graph on that page to see the actual variation just over the past couple hundred years.

          Which is fine for thinking about theory but not for making public policy. And pushing such into the public sphere only degrades the standing of “The Science” further and further.

    1. Several times, but it requires intervention. Hear the hocking, pick up cat and throw him in the bathroom. Shut the door quickly because given the opportunity he WILL head back to carpet.

      1. Well, a belt knife is different, and used at a different time of day. Not a purpose fighting knife, but I have been known to stir stuff in a frying pan or pot with mine.

        I never got to the point of one neighbor at a campsite, though. He was folding over perfect omelets with a hatchet.

  19. Why is everybody scared of possums? I just kick the damned things out of the way, if I don’t feel like shooting them. I usually shoot them, because they get after the cat food.
