Makes you wonder if Major General Donahue registered that autocannon.

Over at The Zelman Partisans:

DID HE REGISTER THAT AUTOCANNON?

Reportedly, a US MG grabbed an interesting souvenir in Afghanistan (while booting several refugees from a plane): a ZU-23 23mm autocannon. That might just be a bit of an NFA violation.

And suddenly more people begin to realize that Facebook really is a dangerously huge monopoly.

As I type the entire Facebook collection of services is still down. And it may have been self-inflicted.

As a Facebook refusenik, I’m enjoying the show. This is up there with the time back in the ’90s that a WorldCom employee turned off the World Wide Web.

Or the time a McLeodUSA engineer killed long distance service for half the country. (How’s it goin’, Sparky?)

Or the time a WorldCom manager screwed US air travel by killing a primary air traffic control data link.

I happened to work for those companies when those incidents occurred, but no, it wasn’t me. I did have a hand in the ATC fiasco, but only in fixing it. Fun story, if you’re into telecom humor.

But at least the Facebook mess has an upside. I figure terrorist networks worldwide are a bit discommoded just now.

NRA YES-MEN VOTE TO REMAIN LAPIERRE’S PERSONAL PIGGYBANK

This would have been a good time to disavow him. I suppose to many board members are in on the milking, and don’t want an ousted weasel pouting them to the courts.

HR Bots Redux

Remember back in August, when some dipstick (HR spambot?) tried recruiting me for a microbiology job? In Massachusetts.

It’s baaacck. This time I replied.

You are, apparently, what happens when HR outsources recruiting to shittily programmed bots.

Please notify your script-kiddy that your resume search function requires re-programming with a better time filter, and more accurate search terms. This will help you to not attempt to recruit electronics technicians for microbiologist positions, and will exclude resumes posted more than a decade ago. Your programmer should also note geographical limits listed on resume postings, to avoid trying to recruit people for Massachusetts who have publicly stated they will never live or work in that Ghu-forsaken socialist hellhole.

You might scan my signature block and inform said script-kiddy that firearm policy and law have little to do with microbiology.

In the event you actually are a human, I could only assume you’re a fucking idiot.

But apparently the critter figured out that in-person lab work really can’t be a work-from-home job. They removed that [part.

Imagine If You Will


CDC Director Walensky: Covid Vaccines “Cannot Prevent Transmission” of China Coronavirus
“Our vaccines are working exceptionally well,” Walensky said then in the same breath admitted they “cannot prevent transmission.”

“So if you’re going home to someone who is not vaccinated…I would suggest you wear a mask in public indoor settings,” Walensky said during an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.


They don’t make you immune. They don’t prevent transmission. She implies the pseudo-vaxxed are primary spreaders.

So… What exactly are the pseudo-vaccines doing “exceptionally well“?

You want pseudo-vax stupidity? NY’s got pseudo-vax stupidity.

Because Ghu forbid he infect those dead people.


Autopsies relocated as medical examiner goes unvaccinated
An upstate New York county is being forced to send human bodies to a hospital 50 miles away for autopsies because its prominent medical examiner has not been vaccinated against the coronavirus, according to county officials.

Rensselaer County moved autopsies on Friday to Glens Falls Hospital from Albany Medical Center Hospital, which requires everyone who works there to be vaccinated, Richard Crist, the county’s director of operations, told the Times Union.


No link, but yesterday I saw an article about how NY’s pseudo-vax requirement for healthcare providers (is a medical examiner doing autopsies really providing healthcare?) “encouraged” so many to get “vaxxed,” with a full 11% getting jabbed post-mandate.

Left unsaid was that 13% of all healthcare providers in the state still preferred unemployment over the jab.

One might wonder what those educated, trained, and experienced folks know.

Thank you for the good writeup. It in fact was a amusement account it. Look advanced to far added agreeable from you! However, how can we communicate?

How?

Poorly. Really, really poorly.

And What Will Happen

Since I’m on the subject of America’s in-progress collapse, here’s a pertinent quote I just heard.

They gotta stop, or everybody’s gonna start identifying as Korean.

I think she’s an optimist. The Roof Koreans were in a strictly defensive posture, protecting families, homes, and businesses. I fear something much worse.

How did it happen?

A comment on yesterday’s blog post regarding the effed up FBI asked a pertinent question about how we generally got to this effed up point.

What is Happening?
How did this Happen?

As it happens, I’ve addressed just that before. I guess a little review is in order.

We mainstreamed stupidity and psychosis.

I am extremely doubtful that this can be reversed short of a complete collapse.

I just hope that enough moderately intelligent and sane people survive to rebuild, and prevent this ever happening again.

But I also have doubts about that latter goal.
