Some series get cancelled on a cliffhanger. Such is the case here, where a road rage incident has a guy with a (very crappy, almost certainly fake) sword try to intimidate another guy… who seems wholly unimpressed and pulls a rifle from his trunk.
Road rage hierarchy – The sword is more mighty than the fist, but then there’s the AK15… from PublicFreakout
I get a serious Antifa vibe from the “swordsman.”
… providing that the results are actually reported.
A Lakehead University professor and her research team in partnership with traditional knowledge holders and Waasegiizhig Nanaandawe’iyewigamig Health Access Centre (WNHAC) are receiving $1.2 million in CIHR funding to explore the efficacy of using traditional healing to prevent cancer.
Dr. Lana Ray, Assistant Professor in Indigenous Learning at Lakehead and the University’s Indigenous Research Chair in Decolonial Futures, will work with WNHAC, traditional knowledge holders, and researchers from Lakehead University, Nipissing University and the University of Toronto to carry out the work over five years.
This project will implement traditional healing activities to address the impacts of colonialism in WNHAC’s service area. It will evaluate the impacts of the intervention through a pre- and post-design that will explore and measure risks and protective factors.
Using an Indigenous mixed methods research approach, this study will privilege Indigenous ways of knowing and doing and tangible outcomes for Indigenous communities through the implementation of medicine camps and traditional health practitioner visits.

“When we do this, we also begin to think of cancer as a symptom of colonialism, which allows for expanded approaches to primary and secondary cancer prevention.”
Colonialism is fundamentally about severing Anishinaabe peoples’ deep spiritual relationships to land. The anti-thesis to that is Anishinaabe systems of traditional healing that are grounded in a deep love and respect for the land and the knowledge that it possesses, Dr. Ray explained.
That’s *glorious.* Not only are they woke, they’re willing to put peoples lives at risk to prove it. And when it inevitably proves to be of little or negative value, rest assured that they’ll blame colonialism for the failure of their bone-headed superstitious gibberish.
The jury in Wisconsin reached the “wrong” conclusion. So there are those who wish to re-try it.
This heartbreaking verdict is a miscarriage of justice and sets a dangerous precedent which justifies federal review by DOJ. Justice cannot tolerate armed persons crossing state lines looking for trouble while people engage in First Amendment-protected protest. https://t.co/Uh95Uc1Ddo

For starters, it’s not illegal for armed American citizens to cross state lines. And for second… he didn’t cross state lines with a gun anyway. So Nadler is flat-out lying in order to either grandstand or to call for the end of the judicial system we’ve had since day one.
I know a lot of people are paranoid about the government watching and listening to everything that we do. Such concerns are valid. But keep in mind… if there are actual humans involved in this surveillance, imagine how much their lives must suuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
So Kamala seized power today. Joy.
(Make sure to stay till the end of the vid…)
Because why not, here’s the music used in this video:
Despite threats from the left and the media (but then, I repeat myself), the Rittenhouse jury displayed courage *and* common sense and have found him not guilty.
Now get ready for the Mostly Pyrotechnic Protests.
Some things that *might* happen:
1) Rittenhouse should go after the press and the politicians (including Biden) who slandered him. Lawsuits totaling a few hundred million dollars might have an impact.
2) This sets a legal precedent that those defending themselves and their communities from unhinged leftist terrorists are in the legal right.
The left’s idiot footsoldiers are annoyed that they don;t get to attack people without consequence, and its starting to boil over…
Another angle of the violent #BLM protester outside the #Kenosha courthouse shows him getting arrested, along with another belligerent protester. #Rittenhouse

The Libs of TikTok account is going to be jam-packed with crazy for a while.
This couple, “Brad & Lex,” are “reactors,” generally reacting to songs that they claim they’ve not heard before or are basically unfamiliar with (they *seem* genuinely to be unfamiliar with most of the ones I’ve seen them react to. They are Millenials, so I guess it’s fair to assume that they might have somehow missed out on the best music from the 80’s and 90’s.). This is sort of the lowest common denominator of YouTube entertainment, but these two are more interesting and amusing that the majority of the youngun reactors I’ve seen. A lot of this is on Lex: she subverts expectations. She, a young black woman, turns out to be an 80’s-style metalhead, and the way she goes kinda bonkers sometimes while Brad remains stoic is just friggen’ awesome to see. She displays unrestrained joy; he displays restraint and self control. The two very different approaches really seem to work together very well (it’s almost as if “feminine” and “masculine” actually complement each other. Weird, I know). For example:
They have a second channel where instead of reacting to music, they react to current news events and political doings. And once again… they subvert expectations by *not* being woke Millenials.
My book on the B-52 is now being printed (I understand that copies physically exist), so it is perhaps a little late for additions and revisions. Still, I remain on the lookout for relevant information. To that end I recently plunked down a fair chunk of change for a pair of documents on ebay… a set of blueprints of the B-52G cockpit, and a B-52G mockup review. I eagerly await their arrival. I have high hopes that the US Postal Service won’t drop a tractor axle dipped in anthrax onto the package.

You know what I was thinking the world needed just now? A smallpox outbreak.
Smallpox is *supposed* to exist only at the CDC in Georgia and an equivalent facility in Moscow. The fact that samples of it *may* exist elsewhere is bad. That samples may exist elsewhere under virtually no security whatsoever? Oh, that’s just magnificent.
“For the general public there is no basis for being worried, even a small amount,” Ebright said.
Well, I’m relieved.
Pretty sure I got the smallpox vaccine when I was a kid. I have doubts that it’d be all that effective all this time later. But even if it remained 100% effective, it has been *decades* since smallpox vaccination was a thing, and I shudder to imagine the inconvenience of having to step over the corpses of Millenials and Gen Z’ers scattered all over the place. Just the *smell*… yeesh, it’d be like an Antifa/Juggalo love-in.
Back in the day, aerospace companies would actively court the public, including those crazy kids who liked to make models. To that end, a number of aerospace companies would release surprisingly nice diagrams of their aircraft. North American Aviation was one such company, and one of their aircraft that they diagrammed for the public was the A3J-1 (later A-5) Vigilante supersonic carrier based bomber. Oddly, I’ve had trouble finding the full scale print of this… but then, I’ve had trouble finding *most* of the ones released by North American. Seems that they tended to not survive to make it to ebay. However, I recently acquired a copy of an old magazine that had the Vigilante diagram, reproduced reasonably well. Woo.
A 300 dpi scan of the diagram has been made available to $4 and up patrons/subscribers in the 2021-11 APR Extras Dropbox folder. A 600 dpi scan has been made available to above-$10 patrons/subscribers.
