This video, shot in the Before Times, shows an Aussie taunting some Commies and tricking them into getting some actual exercise.

Here’s the only “televised Yule log” you’ll need this year: a literal dumpster fire, including the burning of an “OPEN” sign, hand sanitizer, toilet paper and luggage.

Not *complete* good news, but a step in the right direction:
St. Louis Prosecutor Taken Off Case Of Couple Who Brandished Guns At BLM Protesters
Kim Gardner is the prosecutor who decided that the act of guarding your home is a criminal one by arresting and charging the McCloskeys. She subseqeuently used her persecution of these people for political fundraising, showing that this is all about a show trial. She has more to her list of shameful acts than just that though. She sounds like a real winner:
her failed prosecution of then-Gov. Eric Greitens. That latter case actually resulted in one of Gardner’s own investigators being indicted and hundreds of thousands of taxpayers dollars being spent to defend Gardner herself in subsequent litigation.
In January, Gardner filed a bizarre federal civil rights lawsuit alleging a vast, racist conspiracy against her by the city, the St. Louis police officers union and others. In September, U.S. District Judge John Ross summarily dismissed her 32-page complaint as disjointed and unsupported by facts.
And, of course, after all this nonsense she won re-election.

Of late I’ve been writing a *lot.* Or, to be more accurate, I’ve been *trying* to, sometimes with a great deal of non-success. This scholarly paper on writers block proved to not be very helpful.

A “slam fire” shotgun is about as simple as a firearm can get while still being effective. It’s not something you’re want to take into combat… but like the old WWII-era “Liberator” pistol, it’s the sort of thing that you could use to upgrade your armaments if the need came.
Some are *really* simple and would be very difficult to spot as a firearm:
Others are much more complex and are clearly firearms:

A relative of mine entered quarantine a couple days ago with symptoms of the Commie Cough; confirmation is at least a day or three away. But *of* *course,* today their PC decided to act up. The monitor shows, apparently, nothing but a solid blue screen, no text. The extent of my suggestions was “turn it off and back on,” which was repeated several times and always results in that blue screen. Anybody got any ideas? “Take it to a repair place” is, sadly, off the table for at least several days, possibly several weeks.

In 1985, Rockwell International considered the possibility that there might be profit in ICBMs. In particular, small ICBMs (“Midgetman”), road-mobile with a single warhead. Sadly, the SICBM did not come to be. Nor did any other ICBM. The current ICBM that the USAF fields is the Minuteman, merely an updated version of the same missile first fielded nearly *sixty* years ago. The Peacekeeper ICBM was deployed the year after Rockwell produced this document… and the Peacekeeper was withdrawn twenty years later with no replacement in sight

Or at the very least a temporary backing off from bad news:
ATF Withdraws Pistol Brace “Guidance”
Don’t expect this to last. They’ll try again soon enough; hell, in a month Uncle Sniffy the Gropey Manchurian may well start tossing out executive orders mandating the same thing the ATF wanted to do anyway. And if January 6 goes the way I kinda expect it will, then all that’ll stand between the Feds and the citizens will be a shaky Supreme Court… which may well get packed anyway.

In 1985, Rockwell International considered the possibility that there might be profit in long-term “storage sheds” for satellites. These would provide physical protection for the satellites against radiation, micrometeoroids, lasers and the like; the satellites within would be kept in reserve for the day when other satellites are disabled, such as by enemy action. Presumably these cocoons would provide communications and power as well.
