So Biden finally decided to order the shoot down of the Chinese spy balloon over the Atlantic ocean, after it had already crossed the entire country and was no longer useable as a spying craft. This allows him to claim that he took decisive action while keeping his overlords in China happy.
Asshat.
The Pope is finally coming around to admitting what we have known for years: the church is filled with gay pedos. The Catholic church under this openly communist pope is now changing its long held policy that homosexuality is wrong.
I read this over at Gunfreezone, and I am reminded of some things that happened around my own house.
A few years ago, when my wife still had a Nissan Altima, I was out on the driveway replacing its sway bar, which had snapped while she was driving it. The neighbor lady was at the end of the driveway while out walking the dog and said, “I always see you out here, fixing one thing or another. I wish my husband was handy. He doesn’t know how to fix anything.”
The husband of my tenants can’t fix a thing. He calls me over to do everything, even stuff that isn’t part of my responsibilities as landlord. He called me once because the sink in the kids’ bathroom wasn’t working. It turns out that one of the kids had turned off the water at the valve below the sink.
My electric recliner quit working when one of my grandkids was sitting in it. Investigation found that one of the wires had been cut in half by the mechanical workings of the chair. I soldered it back together and sealed it with electrical shrink wrap, good as new. One of my grandkids, who I let help me by holding the flashlight and handing me the tools, said: “That was cool. My dad doesn’t know how to fix stuff like that.”
It’s important to teach kids, especially young men, how to fix things. Don’t raise useless, soy sipping, video game obsessed, beta males. Don’t raise girls who are dependent on men for everything. The simple act of handing you tools and holding the flashlight when they are young teaches them a lot.
Raising children is more than just sitting them in front of a video screen. Be a parent, a dad, a mom. Actually PARENT your children.
Studies are showing that the most widely sold oral decongestant in the US doesn’t do anything, but we already knew that. The name of the drug is phenylephrine, and its sold as a key ingredient in things like NyQuil and other cold medicines.
When the Feds decided to stop people from making Meth, they needed to pull pseudoephedrine from the market, so they were looking for a replacement and settled on phenylephrine.
In the hospital, the intravenous version of phenylephrine is called “neo” by nurses. It’s found in nasal sprays like neo-synephrine, where it works pretty well. It’s a vasoconstrictor, meaning that it causes blood vessels to constrict, and it can be useful for increasing a patient’s blood pressure without affecting heart rate when given in an IV, and it shrinks sinus tissue when sprayed in the nose. When given orally, not so much.
It also doesn’t work worth a darn as a cold medicine. Anyone who has tried taking it knows that it doesn’t really work. If you want a true decongestant, you have to go to the pharmacy counter and hand over ID so your cold medicine can be registered. I guess that way, the cops can more effectively catch those who make meth.
Except meth is still widely available, but now I can’t breathe whenever I have a cold.
Some Illinois sheriffs are refusing to comply with the state’s new assault weapons ban.
An employer tracked a man through a GPS enabled app that they required him to install on his cell phone, then fired him when he was seen at a competitor’s place of business.
The employer claims that they weren’t tracking him, but his location just happened to show up on the supervisors screen. I’m betting that every employee’s location was known 24/7 with this app.
