‘Get Over Yourself’...

 
This kind of advice sounds funny coming from someone who thinks her shit smells like roses, but nonetheless Hillary Clinton displayed all the political skill she's famous for in a Monday night appearance on NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. There, she was asked how Democrats could overcome voters’ dissatisfaction with the two likeliest presidential nominees.
“What do you say to voters who are upset that those are the two choices?” Fallon asked. “Get over yourself,” Clinton responded. “Those are the two choices.”
Wow. What more can you say you sage old woman, you...

Here's something you and I don't spend a fuck of a lot of time thinking about, but it appears the Germans actually do. Go figure. Botswana’s president has threatened to send 20,000 elephants to Germany amid a dispute over the import of hunting trophies.
Earlier this year Germany’s environment ministry raised the possibility of stricter limits on the import of hunting trophies over poaching concerns. But a ban on the import of hunting trophies would only impoverish Botswanans, Mokgweetsi Masisi said.
The African leader argued that conservation efforts have led to an explosion in the number of elephants and that hunting is an important means to keep them in check. Botswana banned trophy hunting in 2014 but lifted the restrictions in 2019 under pressure from local communities. The country now issues annual hunting quotas.

One of the very few things I do miss about New Jersey is my old garden in my backyard. It had to be fenced in 'cause the fuckin' deer would eat everything they saw during the night. The round things are there for a great reason. Most of those are for tomato plants but also for the pepper plants. The plants grow inside the rings and the rings act like wells directing the watering directly to the plant. 
I'd usually have around 25 or so tomato plants going, and at harvest time I could usually pull about 20 or so pounds of tomatoes every day. 
I also had garlic, onions, zucchini, carrots and potatoes. Can do this here in Florida. We just don't get that 30+ degree tempeture swing overnight that tomatoes need to grow, and it rains too often (like every day) in the summer. Rain is lethal to tomato growing.

Meanwhile, somewhere on a beach in some Arab 
country, we have this asshole...

 
This isn't seen from some John Clancy movie - it's just some jerkoff showing off in the new 4WD car his dady bought him. Once he loses control and the car starts flipping, the driver is thrown high into the air like a crash test dummy, himself flipping countless times before splashing into the sea next to his overturned Toyota. But the 34-year-old then miraculously gets to his feet and, aside from a slight limp, seems uninjured. He appears to walk off his aches and pains, stumbling onto the beach. The driver then sits on the sand as several beachgoers go over to check on him.

Prices at a Burger King in LA yesterday. Prices went up an average of 6% across the board after California's new $ 20.00 minimum wage law kicked in. Here's a crazy statistic -  there are as many fast food workers in the state of California as there are people living in the state of Wyoming - around 560,000.

Julia Child made Spaghetti for Mr. Rogers on TV back in 1974. 
She was a guest on his show, not the other way around.

Very subtle. I like it...

There is nothing about this I don't like.

  2. Fast Food workers: cause and effect, prices rise, less customers, lay offs, complaints by workers and company brings in robots to do the job of humans. All for robots and AI, watch a movie called "Colossos the Forbin Project", you'll never want AI to become a reality.

  4. The Toyota rollover on the beach, watch the clip and pay attention to where the person thrown into the air comes from. None of the doors are open, he looks to come from behind the vehicle on the second roll. Edited?
