WHO plans to rename monkeypox over stigmatization concerns
Hey, here’s a thought: rather than renaming the disease, how about you tell people in important risk categories to stop being dumbasses and keep it in their pants for a month or two?
Oh, hey, and more good news:
Poliovirus detected in wastewater samples in New York City, health officials say
Anybody else remember when polio was one of them “old timey” diseases that nobody got anymore? Good times.

One “Angel Guice” decided to be a jerk during a minor traffic stop. The cop gave her repeated opportunities to sign the ticket (for being in a park after closing) and she refused each time. When the opportunities ran out, after having been told that her refusal to sign would lead to her arrest, she feigned confusion as to why she was being arrested, screaming and hollering like a friggen’ toddler. If anyone ever merited a taserin’ it’s right here. The bad acting is phenomenal.
She converted a simple ticket into physical pain and charges with jail time. But I fully expect that Grievance Lawyers will come out and start demanding big payouts for how “unfairly” she was treated.
It’s entitled ignorant people like this who are tearing society down, one outburst at a time. But at least they provide some entertaining video for the ride down.

After thirty years living under “fatwa” calling for his death issued by a head of a branch of a Surt-worshipping cult, author Salman Rushdie was stabbed in the neck today in New York state. Reports are that the injuries are pretty bad, but info so far is pretty slim. There’s gonna be some questions as to why the man didn’t have a small army of bodyguards.

Check the comments on some of those tweet… there are people openly praising the attack because, to them, saying anything negative about their primitive superstitions is a “crime” punishable by death. This is the mindset that Britain, for example, is welcoming in by the boatload.
Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle must be checking the status of their security team payment plans.

End of July a weird story hit about a small cargo plane that had a rough landing. Nothing terribly new with that, except that the co-pilot was found not in the plane, but some thirty miles away. He had fallen from the plane and crashed into someone’s yard. “Why/how the hell did that happen” has been the question; finally some new information has come to light to fill in the “how,” but it doesn’t help with the “why.”
“My Copilot Just Ran Out The Back Of The Plane”- Chilling Audio From Aerial Incident Near Fort Bragg
P: “No, the dude literally jumped out the back of the plane without a parachute.”
*Seven seconds of total silence*
RA: “Shady 02, did you need to do something else, circle or something, or-“
P: “No, I need to land. I’m just making you aware you’re gonna have a dead body out where I just called you at. He just jumped out the back of the plane.”
Ok, yeah, that’s pretty fricken’ weird. I would guess he panicked? It’s a strange glitch in the human OS that someone would be in a dangerous situation and decide that the best approach is *certain* death. This would seem to be the “Better to Die Than be Killed” trope. It happened at the World Trade Center, where people threw themselves out of high windows rather than burn to death… but in this case, it just doesn’t make sense. The plane was damaged – missing one-third of its landing gear – but it was by no means certain that the crew would be killed or necessarily even injured in the forthcoming landing. I wonder if maybe the co-pilot had been responsible for the initial hard landing that broke the gear, and was freaking out? Or perhaps he was on something… or the stress just drove him buggo.

… or not.
In this case, an ATF agent goes to someone’s door and demands to see such-and-such firearm; the homeowner does the smart thing and calls the cops and tells them some sketchy weirdo is going for her guns. Police show up, tell the ATF agent to comply… and he doesn’t, getting tased for his troubles. This happened a few years ago, and *of* *course* he’s suing the police for excessive force. It’s interesting to see how this Federal agent believes that his status sets him above the law. And politicians want to empower these types even *more.* It’s worth noting that this “lawman” was arrested for shoplifting back in 2015. He seems well acquainted with the practice of taking stuff that’s not his.
An ATF agent showed up at a citizen's home to question him about a shotgun he was not "permitted" to have.
The citizen called 911 and told them someone was at his door trying to take his guns.

Police officer starts giving you lawful orders… you say “yes sir” and *obey.* Even if you think you’re in the right, you’re not going to win by resisting a guy with a taser, a sidearm and backup.

A brief documentary about some of the very best of America: immigrants and the children of immigrants using their wits and their rights to defend themselves and their livelihoods from some of the worst of America. They were the very definition of a “well regulated militia.”
There are important lessons here that should have been learned better. Had the riots and looters of 2020 been met with more gunfire, 2020 would have been less bloody, and much more of the blood that had been shed would have been that of people who, well, we don’t need.

In short: about 10% of the entire planetary population. Not even the Nazis, the Imperial Japanese or all the Commies managed that.
Destruction under the Mongol Empire
Interesting. When you see people shrieking about “colonization” or “imperialism,” they don’t tend to be complaining about the Mongols.

Disney slammed for ‘Andor’ trailer featuring an AK-47: ‘Pissed me off’
“5 seconds into the trailer and you’ve already pissed me off,” one fan raged. “The guy has got a f–king AK-47! IN A STAR WARS SHOW! YOU’RE SO LAZY! You couldn’t be bothered to design a space gun. I’m so tired. So very tired.”
Oy. The guns in Star Wars were almost entirely based on real-life firearms, dressed up to one degree or another with added details to make them look like “space guns.” Han Solo carried a modified Mauser C96 “Broomhandle” pistol. The Stormtroopers were armed with Sterling submachine guns and MG34 machine guns and Lewis machine guns, all with minor to modest cosmetic alterations. That there would be something that looks a whole lot like an AK-47 in that universe – a galaxy with billions of inhabited worlds – should hardly be surprising.
