I absolutely fail to understand their strategy. They can't be so fucking stupid as to believe that will have any impact of the dissemination of the news? They are driving people to the right, especially former neutral and undecided. The absolute dumbfuckery of censorship. You can't effectively censor the internet. Motherfuckers are doing the worst possible thing for their cause. The only reason I can think to do it is to keep the SJWs from screaming. Rank idiocy.

That's pretty much my story too. Except the massive tits bit. But, I'd have to be called Hispanic by Andrew Bolt, or I could file a racial discrimination grievance. Never really gave it much thought until the SJWs pointed it out everywhere. Never really minded the odd "where are you from", or "you look like you have some ethnic in you" comments, because I find my family history fascinating.

OK, My CAPS lock was on, I could not sign in until my fourth try, and then only if I answered:
Which of the following will not kill you if you breathe it: sarin, tabun, soman, molten lead, helium?:
This question is a means of preventing automated form submissions by spambots.
The correct answer is helium. I had to look up tabun and soman. And if anyone admits to knowing what those are, expect a visit from the Secret Service. But helium is also wrong. I remember a show about bizarre deaths, and two college students got into a helium filled giant balloon thing one late drunken night and died. Apparently it isn't like drowning, you hardly notice it (from Wiki):
When humans breathe in an asphyxiant gas, such as pure nitrogen, helium, neon, argon, sulfur hexafluoride, methane, or any other physiologically inert gas(es), they exhale carbon dioxide without re-supplying oxygen. Physiologically inert gases (those that have no toxic effect, but merely dilute oxygen) are generally free of odor and taste. As such, the human subject detects little abnormal sensation as the oxygen level falls. This leads to asphyxiation (death from lack of oxygen) without the painful and traumatic feeling of suffocation (the hypercapnic alarm response, which in humans arises mostly from carbon dioxide levels rising), or the side effects of poisoning. In scuba diving rebreather accidents, there is often little sensation but euphoria—however, a slow decrease in oxygen breathing gas content has effects which are quite variable.[7] By contrast, suddenly breathing pure inert gas causes oxygen levels in the blood to fall precipitously, and may lead to unconsciousness in only a few breaths, with no symptoms at all.[3]
Anyway, stay out of giant helium filled balloon things.

Actually, if you breathe a helium/oxygen mixture it's no problem. The others, even mixed with oxygen, ARE a problem.

Incidentally, nitrogen narcosis, as you describe above, is almost certainly a much more humane way to execute people than any other method (if you're into that sort of thing).

Death by inert gas is all over the web now. I work around MIG welders that use inert gases. I would freak out if I was a gas bottle delivery guy if someone who had been ordering O2 (non-inert obviously, used for medical/breathing reasons) bottles changed the order to helium.
But I would probably deliver it because it would probably be a more peaceful way to go than the alternative.

I wonder if the Republicans will make that illegal. 'You knowingly helped this person commit death of inert gasicide. You gassed them like a Nazi gassing a Jew. Like the person was a flea, a termite an ant and you were the almighty Orkin man, like you were a God."

Kevin Drum, the Mother Jones blogger, has bone cancer and wrote piece about his diagnosis and his right to die and how he plans to go about it if and when it gets worse. In that article he touches on his physician dad, who killed himself that way when he was dying of myeloma.
Luckily, neither my wife nor her sister had to learn of their father's death via a call from the morgue. A friend persuaded him to call both of them, and on January 30 we all drove out to Palm Springs to say our last goodbyes. After that, Harry wrote a note explaining that he was about to take his own life and that no one else had provided any assistance. It was time. He categorically forbade any of us from so much as taking his arm. He walked into his bedroom, put a plastic bag over his head, and opened up a tank of helium. A few minutes later he was dead.

WHY HELIUM? Why the note?

Harry was a methodical man, and when he decided he would eventually take his own life, he naturally looked for advice. The place he turned to was the Hemlock Society, founded in 1980 with a mission of fighting to legalize physician-assisted suicide for terminally ill adults.

When we went through Harry's files after his death, we found a slim manila folder with several pages copied from various Hemlock publications, nestled between a bunch of fat folders containing financial information, his will, and his medical records. One of the pages recommended that you write a note making it clear that you had taken your own life, unassisted by anyone else. This was meant for the sheriff or the coroner, and was designed to protect anyone who might be suspected of illegally aiding you.

There were also several pages with instructions on how to take your life using an "inert gas hood kit." This is a fairly simple and painless way to die, since your body reflexively wants to breathe, but doesn't really care what it breathes. If you breathe pure helium, or any other inert gas, you won't feel any sensation of suffocation at all. You simply fall unconscious after a minute or so, and within a few more minutes, you die.

Pure oxygen is a horrible thing - it's reactive as fuck, explosively, combustibly, and also gradually chemically. The only reason we can survive is that most of the oxygen on the planet is sequestered in the crust as oxides.

Check this book out for more details.

A commonly used method for killing lab mice is CO2. This activates the asphyxiation panic from start to end, and it is not nice to watch. I have no idea why they don't switch to a different gas, other than cost/availability perhaps? Would nitrogen be be "better"?

They don't do percentages because they come from an homogenous society. When you live somewhere like Hong Kong where the population is 95% chinese, where a significant percentage of the 'foreigners' have no rights (3% are domestic helpers from South East Asia), it just doesn't occur to you that anyone other than a chinese person should/could do the job.

Certainly in Hong Kong, the local population are incredibly racist, especially against 'brown people' - Indian, Indonesian, Filipino etc. And while you can't discriminate based on ethnicity, there is no law to prevent discrimination on nationality.

Sure, in business they are entirely focussed on profit, and if a brown person makes them more money, then that's who they will hire. But that person will not be a manager, won't progress and will be stabbed in the back at every opportunity. Office politics here are nasty for Gweilos (white people) they must be brutal is you are Indian.

It doesn't surprise me that the Taiwanese would elect a chinese woman - the local culture here is quite matriarchal. I would be shocked if they elected someone not Chinese.

I'll tell you another 'death by helium' story. I haven't welded at the shop I work at in a long while. And I was always a stick welder guy until I worked at this place so welding with a mig isn't automatic for me. I had to weld a small 1/8" piece of aluminum and the two people who can weld aluminum weren't around. So I did it. I did not do a great or even good job, but it was good enough. But I forgot to turn off the helium bottle (250 cu ft of helium is very expensive). And because of poor connections (helium is a very small atom and you MUST used teflon tape on all threaded connections, the proper hoses, tight connections and a good gas valve in the mig) most of the helium in the tank slowly frittered away into the atmoshpere for four day until it was discovered. So yeah, when the boss finds out, death by helium.

CO2 is considered an inert gas. It is by far the cheapest inert gas you can buy since it is an incredibly common industrial byproduct. It gives off a lot of splatter, makes a fairly ragged looking weld so it's not used like it once was. But any O2 in a weld site is death for the weld. It is an awful contaminant. As is carbon. So the two gases must bind incredibly tightly together to stay bonded in the several thousand degrees of an arc that you get from a MIG welder. So it should be like helium or argon. So I don't have an answer. All I can say is, poor mice.

So the answer is, take the mice scuba diving, and crank up the nitrogen.

:clap: :clap: :clap:

Since you mention that clownish bag of jizz Dr. Richard Carrier PhD, has anyone else noticed how quiet that he has been lately? Nine days without a blog post, a handful of tweets a day at most. Considering that his small patreon is his most reliable income stream, it is unusual for him to take a blogging hiatus like this. As Jan Steen has shown, he is busy editing his old blog posts. The length of his hiatus indicates that he is editing a whole lot of his old posts.

Congrats to Brive, Jan, and Billy for making that fucker squirm. It will be interesting to see all of the edits that he has made. I just hope we are able to catch all of them.
:oops:

Considering Carrier's hair-trigger twitter-finger, I find it amusing (and telling) that he let these last three go thru to the keeper.

People do vote with their feet, even if those feet are clad in Fluevogs.

Western feminists vote with their feet by keeping them permanently planted where they are, in the West. For all of how much better anyone is by virtue of that anyone not being a white male in the west, they never leave the white male infested west. Of course, no one but the awful western male patriarchy pays feministas to spout their anti western male crap, so that might be an explanation.

I am willing to start up a new movement, wipe out all feminists by white men not having babies with white females. Have babies with asian women who just want their men to be men. You will get great looking kids, and wives who are happy to be female and happy to 'have a strong male shoulder to lay their head against." As opposed to Steve Shives who apparently had his penis bitten off by the always angry pissed off 'wife', and made a youtube video about it. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm dark. As in I have had many times in my life where Mexicans have come up to me speaking Mexican assuming I would know what they are saying. Maybe that happens to other people but it happens a couple of times a year to me.

So it isn't a stretch to assume that if Mexicans see me as one of their own then maybe other people often see me as such as well. Outside of a preacher once trying to covert me in Spanish when I was locked in jail (long story) I really haven't had bad shit happen to me.
I had that happen to me once, while home for my mother's funeral. Waiting for my sis-in-law to finish her banking, staff comes up and starts obviously doing a greeting in Spanish. Expression of profound bafflement had her switch smoothly to English. I'm of mostly English/Scots/Dutch/German descent with light greenish eyes. It was only later, while laughing about it with my family, that I realized - it was Minneapolis in April - and I live in the southern hemisphere!

A commonly used method for killing lab mice is CO2. This activates the asphyxiation panic from start to end, and it is not nice to watch. I have no idea why they don't switch to a different gas, other than cost/availability perhaps? Would nitrogen be be "better"?
CO2 is pretty cheap and readily available. I don't know whether nitrogen would be better or worse, but the wiki article on inert gas asphyxiation says that nitrogen asphyxiation has been proposed as a humane means of capital punishment in the US. So maybe better?

When I was working in a cancer bio lab back in the 2000s we used to give our mice an inter-peritoneal shot of anesthetic, wait for them to pass out and then break their necks (or in some cases we would harvest blood, or give an inter-cardiac profusion of a dye and fixative both of which would kill the animal). It was a nasty business, but IMO a relatively humane way to sacrifice animals if you have to do that.

Don'y have any input into your specific situation, but my experience is, with any kind of heated argument, best thing is to make your point once, then let it drop. Don't try to win the argument at the time, that only puts people on the defensive. Give her a chance to come round to your point of view without losing face.

:doh: :doh: :doh:
There's also the issue of what it means being harassed. The meaning today has been made so broad that being asked out when you don't want to or being cat called is lumped together with groping and sexual assault.

I'm betting that most women who say that they've been "harassed" by white men refer to unwanted offers of hook ups and cat calls more than to groping and sexual assaults. Not because white men don't grope or assault, but simply because those incidents are in general far more rare than cat calls or unwanted proposals.

I'm also not saying that cat calls aren't harassment, or that all unwanted proposals aren't harassment (it depends on the language and the context). However it's absurd to consider those incidents "just as bad" as what happened in Cologne. Being insulted, bothered or grossed out can't be compared with being touched sexually without consent or being raped.

Gropers and rapists exist and have always existed, but they usually don't act in public, don't form mobs and if the police is alerted they're usually not hindered by politicians to prevent a scandal (unless the rapists/gropers are rich and powerful).

If the mob of rapists and gropers had been made of white hooligans the feminists would have screamed bloody murder, organized campaigns, written that this was the definitive evidence that the West is a rape culture.

However since the rapists and gropers are "brown" Muslims they've ignored the issue at first and now are blaming the "West" again. Because surely the Muslim immigrants have learnt that they can get away with rape by seeing so many white rapists get away with it. The Muslim "rape culture" isn't to blame, because while many if not most teachings of Islam consider women and infidels inferior the "West" is "just as bad".

In the West rape is severely punished as heinous crimes, considered one of the most horrible actions one can commit (comparable only to murder), while Islamists promoted sexual slavery, child marriage, the stoning of rape victims as adulterers if they didn't scream loud enough and a huge difference in treatment between Muslims and "infidel Western women".

But all this doesn't matter, because this activist was once asked for a coffee in an elevator at an atheist convention, while this other activist was cat called, or proposed in a rude way in a bar, or flirted with on television. Also look at all those rapes and sexual assaults at the Oktoberfest. This surely means that Western democracies are rape cultures, while Islam is the religion of poor, oppressed people who occasionaly lash out on Western women, but only because they've been oppressed by Western men.

And white, as Chris Kluwe said, need a (probably feminist) coach to behave morally. Muslims really don't.

They have to highlight these differences because it is the only way to fight oppression. That's what they toldc me. Special snowflakes require special treatment to overcome thousands of years of white patriarchial oppression.

On another note, I just turned on the CBC radio. Interview with a Finnish journalist. Its 2am here. Can't find it online, but a quick rundown:

- neo nazi groups patrolling.
- its been going on since the fall
- people are upset over media and govt silence
- women say that they are afraid to leave house. Not only afraid of migrants, but of the skinheads too
- an official govt report states clearly that the Cologne attackers are Muslim
- the neo Nazis wear black shirts
- the reporter says that she is afraid to walk down the street with a brown friend. Will skinheads beat xir up?
-many of the migrants are just normal people and this really sucks for them

Great work SJWs.

I agree.

Open borders all the way. No screening.

And when crime happens, just blame it on white men and/or cover it up.

The white supremacists will act kindly to this and *not* start taking it out on any brown person that they see.

Fucking brilliant.

Now, back to bed.

Well yeah, it's pretty obvious that one way or the other, JSWs are playing right in the hands or the extremists (left, right, islamists). What really makes me furious is that they're either too evil or too stupid to realize that. And meanwhile, normal people (in all the meanings of the term) suffer for it.

I think the wake up call, if there's ever one, will be quite brutal for the SJWs.

They would never - never ever - see it as a harsh wake up call. They will see it as confirmation of what they said from the beginning: white cishet patriarchy capitalist society is and will always be a facsist regime. Because raep.

My wife came over to see the kids. It was only the second time this week. She got here at 11:30 and took a shower for about 30 minutes. After that she started coloring.

I didn't have any issues with that but after awhile I noticed she really wasn't talking to the kids, just coloring. I made a comment about it and she got pissed and stormed out. All in all the kids got to see her for about an hour.


I think she is being really unfair to the kids. Thoughts?
It's weird that she took a shower at your place. Has she become homeless, or is her own shower broken or something? It's also weird that she didn't pay attention to the kids. Is she going through something mentally and become unable to care properly for them? Or perhaps she's considering letting you (or making you) be the single parent for after custody is figured out and preparing herself mentally and distancing herself. And if it's that, and while you're in between jobs, maybe you qualify for a single parent amount of welfare. And maybe child care programs and job assistance programs as well - the types that are usually given to single mothers. Assuming they are not sexist, a single father should qualify for all that.

Since you mention that clownish bag of jizz Dr. Richard Carrier PhD, has anyone else noticed how quiet that he has been lately? Nine days without a blog post, a handful of tweets a day at most. Considering that his small patreon is his most reliable income stream, it is unusual for him to take a blogging hiatus like this. As Jan Steen has shown, he is busy editing his old blog posts. The length of his hiatus indicates that he is editing a whole lot of his old posts.

Congrats to Brive, Jan, and Billy for making that fucker squirm. It will be interesting to see all of the edits that he has made. I just hope we are able to catch all of them.
He has resurfaced, producing a 567k word blog post. I have conveniently summarised it for those lacking the spoons to click on the below archive link:

TL:DR More than 2 years ago someone said Carrier was wrong. Dickie boy has now written 264 million words on why this person is 'a kook'.

Slightly longer version: Carrier wrote an article that expounded on his formidable knowledge of Cosmology, Astrophysics & Probability. An actual Cosmologist, working at a real university, said he was wrong. Carrier had many 'discussions' with this Cosmologist 2 years ago. Carrier starts his new post by saying this guy is a kook and he is not going to talk about him. And then spends the entire blog post talking about him.

https://web.archive.org/web/20160117130 ... hives/9429

Interestingly, in the posts made by 'the kook', the following was said of Tricky Dicky:
Dr Richard Carrier is a “world-renowned author and speaker”. That quote comes from none other than the world-renowned author and speaker, Dr Richard Carrier. Fellow atheist Massimo Pigliucci says,
The guy writes too much, is too long winded, far too obnoxious for me to be able to withstand reading him for more than a few minutes at a time.
I know the feeling. When Carrier’s essay comes to address evolution, he recommends that we “consider only actual scholars with PhD’s in some relevant field”. One wonders why, when we come to consider the particular intersection of physics, cosmology and philosophy wherein we find fine-tuning, we should consider the musings of someone with a PhD in ancient history. (A couple of articles on philosophy does not a philosopher make). Especially when Carrier has stated that there are six fundamental constants of nature, but can’t say what they are, can’t cite any physicist who believes that laughable claim, and refers to the constants of the standard model of particle physics (which every physicist counts as fundamental constants of nature) as “trivia”.
I think I like this guy. Amusingly he is already tweeting at Carrier about the new post. Should be good for a few laughs.

Which of the following will not kill you if you breathe it: sarin, tabun, soman, molten lead, helium?:
This question is a means of preventing automated form submissions by spambots.
The correct answer is helium. I had to look up tabun and soman. And if anyone admits to knowing what those are, expect a visit from the Secret Service. But helium is also wrong. I remember a show about bizarre deaths, and two college students got into a helium filled giant balloon thing one late drunken night and died. Apparently it isn't like drowning, you hardly notice it (from Wiki):
When humans breathe in an asphyxiant gas, such as pure nitrogen, helium, neon, argon, sulfur hexafluoride, methane, or any other physiologically inert gas(es), they exhale carbon dioxide without re-supplying oxygen. Physiologically inert gases (those that have no toxic effect, but merely dilute oxygen) are generally free of odor and taste. As such, the human subject detects little abnormal sensation as the oxygen level falls. This leads to asphyxiation (death from lack of oxygen) without the painful and traumatic feeling of suffocation (the hypercapnic alarm response, which in humans arises mostly from carbon dioxide levels rising), or the side effects of poisoning. In scuba diving rebreather accidents, there is often little sensation but euphoria—however, a slow decrease in oxygen breathing gas content has effects which are quite variable.[7] By contrast, suddenly breathing pure inert gas causes oxygen levels in the blood to fall precipitously, and may lead to unconsciousness in only a few breaths, with no symptoms at all.[3]
Anyway, stay out of giant helium filled balloon things.
Actually, if you breathe a helium/oxygen mixture it's no problem. The others, even mixed with oxygen, ARE a problem.

Incidentally, nitrogen narcosis, as you describe above, is almost certainly a much more humane way to execute people than any other method (if you're into that sort of thing).
If you have ever been in the Military you will definitely no what tabun, soman, sarin and Vx are.

This.

Most Americans don't give nearly as much thought to race as the SJWs. Every time something bad happens involving black and white people, (such as a white cop shooting a black suspect), the SJWs and "progressive media" come out in droves, slamming whites and lecturing everybody how racist whites are and how we all need to feel collective guilt. Then the media invariably starts calling for a "national discussion on race". Which is fucking bullshit, because what could possibly be "discussed" that hasn't been discussed a million times before? Seems to me these calls for a "national discussion on race" are nothing more than a demand by the regressive left that white people take collective responsibility for everything bad that happens to non-whites, and a demand for all whites to admit were all racists.

Racism is a problem in this country, to be sure. You can find people of any color or ethnic background who hate people of any given other color or background. But it's the morons who bleat the loudest about racism who are the most racist of all.

When I was younger my friend and I would call ourselves "spic-guinny" (pronounced spi-cginny, hard c and hard g blend) since we were both of Puerto Rican and Italian decent and we both grew up in a spanish speaking households.

We should have made videos complaining about micro aggressions or someshit, instead of, ya know, taking it in stride and joking about it.

For a physiology class I once volunteered to wear a rebreather (like a giant hot water bottle) and mask while doing some simple task like copying lines of text. It was easy. However, when I regained consciousness, I saw that I had spent several pages of writing nonsense, then drawing wavy lines instead of writing, and then apparently I fell off my stool and the mask was taken off. Now that's hypoxia, not nitrogen narcosis, and the rebreather bag was big enough that I had no sense of breathlessness from CO2 build up, but it was painless and if the mask hadn't been taken off me I would have slipped unknowing into the big sleep. I expect I was a lot smarter too, before volunteering for that. But I didn't learn my lesson, and the next year in a pharmacology practical, we all did something similar, except the bags were filled with different percentages of NO2 and we had to perform some awkward psychomotor tasks while breathing the mixture. NO2 isn't truly a general anesthetic; it knocks you out by asphyxia, and that's what dentists used to use. It's not unpleasant. When I regained consciousness, the professor took pity on me and drove me home rather than let me go on my usual hour and a half walk. Nowadays, I don't volunteer for anything.

This guy used to share the stage with the luminaries of atheism and skepticism. Now he's pouring Round-Up into fish tanks and trying to drag his betters down to his level. If Elon Musk is a "terrible human being", then PZ Myers is Hitler's dick cheese. Myers is getting exactly what he deserves.
Re. Elon Musk and his likes, I have a small game I play every time a famous person or research team announces an interesting breakthrough or discovery: who of the usual SJW suspects is going to hack into it, when/where, for what trumped-up reason.

(e.g. Melissa McEwan, in her kitchen, with a hatchet, because subject once looked at young girl's breasts)

r Hilmi, a 44-year-old engineer from Morocco who did not want to give his first name, has lived in Germany for decades. He volunteers to support refugees, but says the country cannot keep welcoming them at the rate of recent months. “Merkel’s ‘Willkommenskultur’ [welcoming culture] was right up to a point, but the government has long lost control. She should adjust her course to limit the inflow of migrants,” he said.

“The atmosphere has recently turned, especially here in Cologne.”

Already, he says, some Germans seem more afraid of people they think might be foreigners, and as a result he is making “small changes” to his life. He will be skipping the city’s carnival this year, normally a favourite celebration, because of worries about exposing his two young children to violence and racism.

“I would be concerned that the situation this year might be more tense than in the past. And I don’t want any trouble with drunk people who might say something offensive when they see someone foreign-looking.”

I really, really hope you mean N2O, not NO2. For your sake.

Add more words to the "offensive" word list:

14 minutes ago
What are the terms "rational" and "critical thinking" supposed to mean? The more I think about contexts in which the words are used, I realize that the majority of the time the words are used to mean "I'm awesome, and those who disagree with me are disgusting," or "I'm using with word to try and look good."

Examples include various Victorian clothing reforms, including Dr. Jaeger's "wool cloth prevents disease" theories. There's also Meiji era Japan's rational dress, which aimed at making upper class female Japanese clothing palatable to Western audiences while avoiding looking like a peasant.

Ayn Rand also seemed to enjoy the words, though she had a cult that revolved around her, in which those words meant "agree with me or else." (I think, it's been a while since I read about her social circle/cult.)

Lastly, there are people who've used those words to justify why I'm an inferior human being.


Our dear screwtape should have engaged in some *critical thinking* before knocking himself out. Twice.

A new national anthem for the UK? Can't wait until the SJWs start adding their 2 pence to that.
