First up, there’s this insanity:

Adults Who Still Drink Milk: Are You Okay?

Unless you’re a hungry baby, drinking milk on its own is unsettling behaviour.’

The British author tries to argue that milk is inappropriate for adults. The author only succeeds in demonstrating that she’s some kind of deviant perv. And as it turns out, the author looks pretty much like you’d expect she would. She seems about one face tat away from grabbing a rifle and going to a rooftop near a parade.

And then there’s this, also out of Britain:

Supermarkets put security tags on cheese blocks as stores tackle shoplifting amid soaring food costs

 

 

Ummm… are you ok, Britain? Things seem kinda wrong over yonder.

Biden Sold a Million Barrels From US Strategic Petroleum Reserve to China-Owned Gas Giant

At a time when gasoline is intensely expensive, selling gas to a foreign adversary seems a little weird. but then, there’s this “huh” detail…

Biden’s Energy Department in April announced the sale of 950,000 Strategic Petroleum Reserve barrels to Unipec, the trading arm of the China Petrochemical Corporation. That company, which is commonly known as Sinopec, is wholly owned by the Chinese government. …  Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, is tied to Sinopec. In 2015, a private equity firm he cofounded bought a $1.7 billion stake in Sinopec Marketing. Sinopec went on to enter negotiations to purchase Gazprom in March, one month after the Biden administration sanctioned the Russian gas giant.

Huh.

HUH.

I kinda wonder who this would have gone over had it been Trumps kid…

Two days after a looney bugman decided to shoot up an Independence Day parade, someone went and kerploded the Georgia Guidestones. If you don’t know what those were…  well, read up on ’em and marvel at the weirdness.

The Georgia Guidestones demolished after explosion ‘destroyed’ portion, GBI says

The lesson to be drawn:

 

And of course…

 

Not related apart from “what THE HELL is this noise?” The downfall of new York City continues apace as an old man (ah, crap, he’s younger’n *me*) is sent to jail because he defended himself against a violent assault:

New York City: not even once.

I have no idea who this weirdo is. There are far, FAR too many of them in the world, with their rampaging narcissism and LookitMeAintISpecial makeup, to even begin to catalog them. That said, what she says in the first few seconds of this clip is *fascinating:*

the most hurtful response I get when I speak about my sexuality is “I don’t care”.’

Get used to it. Because most people *don’t* care. Not just about your sexuality, but about your religion, your politics, your mental diseases, your tragic backstory… about YOU. And you trying to make every damn thing about you makes people care all the less.

I’ve said it before: there is a flaw in the human operating system that makes seeing oneself as a victim, as the oppressed, as the loser in the great game of life as a *desirable* thing. These are the people who get outraged at, say, British people proudly hang up the Union Jack and want to maintain Britishness in Britain; Americans who do not feel automatic and utter shame about America because our history was not ethical purity from the get-go; any man who is not ashamed to be a man, any woman who wants to be a feminine woman. These people *live* on feeling hated, whether they actually are or not. And a few decades ago… sure, they would have been. But when I was a kid in the 80’s that time was largely already past (with, of course, loudmouthed exceptions). My generation was raised on “everybody is ok, don’t be a dick about it.” You could not turn on an “after school special” or a “very special episode” without getting hammered with The Message.

So… they look out into the world and *don’t* see the hate surrounding them that it seems they feel the need for. So they do one or both of two things:

1) They just dream up that hate anyway, and attribute it to anything that isn’t 100% affirming and validating

2) They ramp up their own weirdness until they start pushing buttons, get pushback, and then bask in the warm glow of their oppression. See: Antifa, BLM, Drag Queen Story Time, “Pride” parades featuring things that would get an NC-17 rating, celebrating grooming.

To this kind of person, the worst thing they can hear is “I don’t hate you. I just don’t care about you. You don’t factor into my thoughts at all.”

Oregon Health Officials Delayed a Meeting Because ‘Urgency Is a White Supremacy Value’

Insert half-a-joke here about hoping that these people need an ambulance someday and find that the dispatchers and drivers share their views about the importance of “urgency.”

Less jokey: they are involved in healthcare, and they don’t think that getting things done in a timely manner is a good thing.

The woman who is the subject of this video is *hilarious.* Her basic premise is silly enough, but they way she tries to come off as commanding and threatening, presuming that she has some authority over people who are not her, is knee-slapping.

Even people who are on her side on the Roe issue gotta listen to her and think…
