3,000,000,000 [dead] canaries in the coal mine? . . .
. . . on the bright side, I guess, at least they aren’t worrying about the future, eh, Narendra??
Let’s all party like it’s 2 – 0 – 1 – 9!!!
Thanks, Dio. I saw that story in the NY Times this morning, too. Bird populations are being decimated around the world. I notice it myself. Silent Spring is becoming all too real again.
Yeah… maybe
But how is any of this existential?
Kierkegaard ?
WOTD from Vox: "Elizabeth Warren is Ruthless and laser-fucking-focused".
ONE plan to rule them all. Its' called the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
Warren and the CFPB — in the era of Trump.
According to one consumer advocate
Warren’s vision and aim were fine. But the implementation is marred by the absence of legislative standards in favor of agency regulations, regulations which can be modified whenever priorities shift or Administrations change.
The implementation was fine. The CFPB is the enemy of Wall Street and the corporate class. Therefore, corporate corruption bought the Republican Party, and then Trump was elected.
Is Colorado getting weirder?
CPR: Seriously, Don't Put a Bobcat in Your Car
BoingBoing: Colorado motorcyclist OK after filming his own fall off cliff into water
Seriously, Don't Put a Bobcat in Your Car … with your child, especially.
But if you do, because, you know, freedumb or something — whatever . . .
. . . please remember to always properly buckle the bobcat into an approved safety seat. Thankyou.
As long as it's optional. Mandatory bobcat car seats are just another way for the Big Government thugs to bring down their filthy jackboot on the throats of freedom lovers.
Remember “Bob’s Place” on Colorado Boulevard? One of the last full-service gas stations. Motto: A Bobcat for Service.
But the foolish young mom wasn’t old enough to remember the friendly, top-hatted Bobcat – so no excuse there.
All cats should be avoided. Always.
What about cows?
hmm…
No. There is a time and a place not to avoid cows.
…and your beef with cats ?
Just askin'…😉
The only thing stopping a cat from killing you is you're too big.
It would kill you if it thought it could.
Birds.
Cats kill a lot of birds – and I prefer birds.
People are fooled into thinking cats are domesticated.
They are not. (see above)

When a bunch of privileged dumbass white women march through the halls of the California Capitol singing We Shall Overcome and talking about how they're the new civil rights movement, they can really be on about only one thing.
Can you guess what the one thing is before clicking on this here link? Of course you can.
They want to openly carry guns- it’s better than having access to contraception and abortion. (Checking….) nope, it’s about the “right” to send unvaccinated kids to public school…..sheesh.
Talk about living in a bubble … how tough is it to look around a room, notice that everyone looks the same, and wonder if, maybe, just maybe, the effort to pick a message may need to be tested on a broader audience?
Remember when? Those days when Willard called for letting Detroit go bankrupt because the thought of sending $12 billion to the Big Three seemed, so….socialist?
Welp, we've topped $28 billion in welfare to the ag sector (with no end in sight). To quote an old sage from Yuma County:
In a bit of good news, apparently there are enough Democrats willing to support farmers that there isn't likely to be a shutdown in the program even if the USDA hits the $30 billion limit on borrowing for the year. At least, that is what the House is proposing for the needed "continuing resolution" [see Sec. 119] acting as a stopgap until a FY2020 budget can be passed.
We'll see if the Senate is willing to play along, and if Trump wants to avoid yet another government shutdown during his term.
Well, most economists would not describe socialism that way.
But any decent con artist will know how this grift pays.
In case anyone missed this while we were being distracted by our little beauty queen in the stained dress: for three nights in a row the N.Y. Fed has had to dump money into the overnight trading market to keep it afloat and working. The only reason we’re not in a major recession is we’re dumping money into failing sectors, namely finance and farming.
This isn’t sustainable.
Our entire economy is being bailed out in front of us. We are in a recession, but no one realizes it yet.
New York Fed to continue operations in overnight funding market until mid-October
SELL!

SHORT!!
hold cash to buy stuff when prices hit bottom
2008, I helped afew people buy cheap homes (some without wheels) and I helped my brother in-law get some cheep boats.
How many times do I have to say it? If the money goes to old white guys, it ain't welfare!
No truer words spoken!
Other word of the day is "Kompromat".

Didn't understand the "other word" reference until someone on another site pointed out Merriam-Webster's word of the day for 9/20.

Almost forgot mention that we got robocalls over the past couple of days from Rep. Joe Neguse inviting us to take part in a telephone town hall. My wife ran the number in an app she has on her phone, and found a transcript of the call that begins with, "Hi, it's your congressman, Jonah Goose."
We can't stop chuckling about this..what a hoot.
