[NYPOST] An Asian woman was fatally stabbed while walking her dogs in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, in what cops are calling a random attack.Ke Chieh Meng, 64, was out with her two small pups in Riverside around 7:30 a.m. Saturday when she was stabbed and left on the ground bleeding, KTLA-TV reported.
Officers responding to the scene found her on the ground and transported Meng to a local hospital, where she was pronounced dead. He's dead, Jim! according to the station.
Meng’s suspected attacker, Darlene Stephanie Montoya, 23, was identified by police as a transient. She was arrested near the scene and charged in what police described as a "completely random" attack.
"There was nothing to suggest that the victim was attacked due to her ethnicity," Riverside Police Department front man Ryan Railsback told The Post on Sunday.
Manhattan 7-Eleven worker punched, called Chinese ''motherf—''
[NYPOST] A Manhattan 7-Eleven worker became the city’s latest suspected victim of an anti-Asian crime — with his attacker spewing, "You Chinese motherf—er!" as he punched him, police said Sunday.The 26-year-old Asian victim was working at the Manhattan convenience store shortly before 6 a.m. Saturday when his attacker stormed in without a mask and yelled the racial slur and slugged him, cops said.
Cops said the victim, who suffered a cut under his left eye, had previously confronted the suspect after he allegedly tried to steal merchandise.
Police said initially the assault was not being classified as a hate crime because the attack was over "a previous larceny and dispute."
But the department said later Sunday that it was being investigated as a bias crime. No description? Tells me what I already know

Montoya was also arrested last Tuesday on for attacking a "White" woman with a skateboard. But Montoya was released (no Bail) on a “Notice to Appear” citation due to the current
"Protestor/Undocumented Worker Protection Act" (☺) bail policies in currently place.

Reminds me of the infection I got after my vasectomy. I was in the office talking to my assistant and dropped to my knees. Went across the street to a doc in the box, they took one look at lefty, jumped back and sent me to the hospital. As I was driving to the hospital in a manual transmission, every shift was agonizing and I would scream out the window.
Once arriving at the hospital as I walked across the parking out, I had to look like Yosemite Sam bow legged and walking slowly.
3 shots of morphine later an absolute knockout of nurse had to do an ultrasound, what a day!

A lucky old duck of Nantucket
Was struck by the dreaded dry socket,
Which wasn't so bad...
Till he twisted a nad.
Then he set off the Glock in his pocket...
And that Camry took off like a rocket.

If "it's got to be (good)", then 'tis Smuckers
(Better FAR than that 'berg of Herr Zuckers)
For a flick of the wrist
Puts one's stones in a twist
Once a F-cker, now a Tucker: Jelly-SUCKER!

Culman LLC of Arlington, VA gets a piece of the action as well. There are probably dozens more. I suppose we can assume the normal gov't contract bidding process was not utilized.
[NYP] Amazon acknowledged Friday that it has a loo-ming problem.
The web giant fessed up that its delivery drivers have limited access to bathrooms, meaning that accusations of them urinating in bottles or elsewhere in public are likely to be true.
"We know that drivers can and do have trouble finding restrooms because of traffic or sometimes rural routes," the online retail giant posted on its AboutAmazon portal. "And this has been especially the case during Covid when many public restrooms have been closed."
The admission comes following a Twitter spat with Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wisc.) last month in which the congressman accused Amazon of being a union-busting operation that will "make workers urinate in water bottles."

It's all OK. Nancy got the poorer states to pick up the tab with her 'Covid' relief bill that allows pols in CA, IL, et al to be so generous to their citizens by covering their costs with rest of us paying taxes, direct or through inflation.
[Aljazeera] Police in Northern Ireland have appealed for calm after officers were attacked and cars were set on fire during a second night of unrest.
Northern Ireland police said on Sunday that Unionist protesters threw 30 petrol bombs at officers and torched cars during a night of "disorder" on Saturday in Newtownabbey, a suburb of northern Belfast. Three cars were also hijacked and set on fire.
[Daily Caller] Facebook staffers were reportedly growing concerned that the platform was allowing Chinese state actors to buy ads spreading propaganda with limited regulations, according to a report published Friday.
Employees were discussing ads purchased by Chinese entities that depict "thriving" Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang province, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal. China was estimated to have detained at least 1 million Uyghurs in reeducation camps, in what the U.S. considered an act of genocide.
Facebook has been blocked in China since 2009, but has earned $5 billion per year in advertising revenue from Chinese businesses and government agencies, according to Reuters. One Muslim Facebook employee reportedly authored a "plea to leadership" for the company to "action to fight misinformation on the Uighur genocide," according to the Journal.
[FOX] Homes are getting snatched off the market at a record pace despite rising home prices and mortgage rates, according to a new Redfin report.
About 59% of homes that went under contract had an accepted offer within two weeks of hitting the market, an-all time high since the real estate brokerage began tracking the data in 2012.
In the week ending on March 28, 61% of homes sold in two weeks or less, according to the data. Meanwhile, just under half of all homes, about 47%, that went under contract accepted an offer within one week, an increase from 33% from a year ago.
At the same time, the report revealed that active listings fell 42% from the same period in 2020, which is an all-time low.
Still, more than 40% of homes sold above the original asking price, an all-time high, and roughly 16% higher compared to a year earlier, according to the data.
The median home-sale price was $335,613, another all-time high and an increase of about 17% compared to last year.

What about the houses that can't be sold due to squatting of nonpaying renters that various legal manipulations have protected for over a year now? I guess those homes have zero value and don't affect these bogus prices.

Housing may indeed be a bubble market, but at least it is a tangible asset against the inevitable hyperinflation of the currency. The real problem will be how to pay the property taxes on it.
[The Hill] Delta Air Lines reportedly canceled about 100 flights on Sunday due to staff shortages and placed some customers in middle seats for the first time in a year.
"We apologize to our customers for the inconvenience, and the majority have been rebooked for the same travel day," Delta said in a statement, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
The airline said that it has had more than 1 million passengers in the past few days, the Journal-Constitution reports, the most it’s seen since the pandemic began.
Websites at three Delta hubs showed 33 cancelled flights arriving or departing, the newspaper notes, with 19 cancelled flights at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, 11 at Detroit's Metropolitan Airport and three at the Minneapolis−Saint Paul International Airport.

Can't get employees to report for work? A bit 'out of the box' and potentially racist, but perhaps hiring a better cut of employee would help resolve the issue.
