Play stupid games...
[NYPOST] A Washington state man is facing up to 20 years in prison after he admitted to jumping over a beverage cart and trying to take off his clothes aboard an American Airlines flight, which had to be diverted.
Adam Alexander Williams, 33, of Auburn, Washington, pleaded guilty Thursday to interference with flight members and attendants, more than five months after causing a flight from Seattle to Charlotte, North Carolina, to land in Billings, Montana, according to the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Montana.
Williams will be sentenced at a later date. In addition to prison time, he also faces a $25,000 fine and three years of supervised release.
According to court documents, Williams was traveling to North Carolina on Jan. 9 when his behavior “turned erratic and escalated” mid-flight.
At one point, he yelled at no one in particular, “Where is Jamie Sanders?” He later jumped over passengers in his row and onto a beverage cart in the aisle.
“As he came off of the cart, he almost landed on a flight attendant and pushed her into a seat, knocking drinks and cups to the ground,” records stated. “He then began to run down the aisle of the aircraft.”

[PJMedia] I don’t want to denigrate anyone’s manhood. After all, there’s a lot more to being a man than simply having the ability to impregnate a woman birthing person. And while there are plenty of reasons for a man to undergo a vasectomy, most of them are unrelated to health.
That might explain the rush by men to see urologists to get snipped. The Washington Post says that urologists report a significant spike in requests for vasectomies in the wake of the Supreme Court decision Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s birthing persons Health Organization.
"It is something I put on the back-burner of my mind until very recently, when the Supreme Court decision happened," Thomas Figueroa, 27, who lives in Tampa and told the Post that he never wanted children. "That was basically the triggering factor right there. It pushed my mind to say: ’Okay, I really do not want children. I’m going to get this vasectomy now.’ "
"Triggered" by Dobbs? What has happened to American men? So he didn't want to be responsible for his actions. Make the birthing person go through the abortion.
Figueroa registered for a vasectomy with Doug Stein, a urologist known as the "Vasectomy King" for his advocacy of the procedure.
Stein said that before Friday, he received four or five vasectomy requests a day. Since the court’s decision was announced, that number has spiked to 12 to 18 requests per day. Good for them.
"It was very, very noticeable Friday, and then the number that came in over the weekend was huge and the number that is still coming in far exceeds what we have experienced in the past," Stein told The Post."Many of the guys are saying that they have been thinking about a vasectomy for a while, and the Roe v. Wade decision was just that final factor that tipped them over the edge and made them submit the online registration."
It’s a good time to be the ruler of Vasectomyland.
Ideas and ideals of manhood have changed a lot. Being "triggered" is apparently so acceptable that men aren’t ashamed or embarrassed to admit to their triggering.
That said, a man choosing vasectomy — a mostly irreversible procedure — does so for a variety of reasons.

Good, they probably don't need to have kids anyway.

I agree, good. A vasectomy is reversible and far better to prevent impregnation than have an abortion. Feminists should have been pushing this option decades ago.

No, thanks. I don't want any cutting tools anywhere near those parts. Dorks, wimps, sissies and dumb asses feel free if you think that'll get you laid.

Be advised, however, the surgery will not prevent monkey pox.

they don’t guarantee it will work like original equipment afterward.
At the time of mine, back when they used flint knives, an option of tiny valves was available. These valves could be opened or closed at the owner's request. A good pipe cleaning was required .
[WhiteHouse] July 1st marks the 25th anniversary of the of the handover of Hong Kong to the People’s Republic of China (PRC). This date was originally envisioned as the halfway point of 50 years of promised autonomy under the Sino-British Joint Declaration. Instead of looking forward to another 25 years of autonomy for Hong Kong, we have witnessed the dismantling of Hong Kong’s democratic institutions and the unprecedented pressures on the judiciary, the stifling of academic, cultural, and press freedoms, and the coerced disbandment of dozens of civil society groups and news outlets. These actions undermine fundamental freedoms and the rules-based order which serves to preserve global stability.
Today is the second anniversary of National Security Law, the aggressive implementation of which has eliminated any meaningful political opposition in Hong Kong and stifled dissent. As a result, today almost all of Hong Kong’s pro-democracy politicians are either in prison pending trial or in exile overseas. NGOs, trade unions and human rights organizations opposing the Government’s agenda have been forced to disband or leave, for fear of government reprisals. The PRC’s policies toward Hong Kong also have shaken the institutions, rules, and systems that had been the basis of international confidence in Hong Kong – which was the bedrock of its role as an economic hub.
We call on the PRC to act in accordance with the international obligations it willingly undertook. Ahead of the Chief Executive’s inauguration, we reiterate the importance that Hong Kong’s leadership respects the protected rights and freedoms of people in Hong Kong, as provided for in the Basic Law.

I had a front row seat to this from 2017 to 2020. Whatever you thought Hong Kong was - it is no longer. IC2S is no longer in place. The ChiComms - in my opinion - always saw Hong Kong as an open wound and vector for infection. The wound has been cauterized.
Hong Kong is now a JACC - Just Another Chinese City. Some would say a tier 2 city at that compared to Beijing or Shanghai (among others). Hong Kong will be slowly absorbed into the mega-city of the Guangzhou-Shenzen-Greater Bay megalopolios.
A cautionary tale for those who think they can "work" with the PRC on anything (looking at you Big Tech...).

[RS] The man who masterminded both successful presidential campaigns for former President Obama, strategist David Axelrod, has harsh words for the current Commander-in-Chief saying, "There is this sense that things are kind of out of control and he’s not in command." Appearing on CNN’s "The Lead with Jake Tapper" Thursday, he added, "so, you know, this is a very, very fraught environment for him right now."
The first question that pops into my mind is, does this have Obama’s blessing? It’s hard to imagine that Axelrod, now a CNN commentator, would criticize the Democratic Party’s standard-bearer without running it first by his former boss. My second question is, how long does this guy want to work at CNN? Because if he keeps spouting off like this, he’s bound to upset some folks at the left-leaning network who have been covering for Biden since day one of his presidency. Paging Brian Stelter and Oliver Darcy...

Not sure Big Mike willing to work that hard, even as pampered as she would be, because she might have to actually face questions and all that messy political stuff before the coronation. Plus, the Magic Kenyan could simply NOT stay out of the limelight, trying to be always the center of the room. Still, the endless fawning prestige and adoration by the glitterati of being the most powerful black woman in world history might draw even her.
[OneIndia]: The horrific killing of a Hindu tailor by two Islamic Death Eaters in Udaipur earlier this week only shows up to what extent radicalisation has spread in India.
The National Investigation Agency says that it will probe the role of local radical groups in Rajasthan.
In this context we must revisit the book Radicalisation in India, authored by Abhinav Pandya, a Cornell University graduate in public affairs, is a policy analyst specialising in counterterrorism, Indian foreign policy and Afghanistan-Pakistain geopolitics.

All this... slippage... is the result of the central government's wariness in challenging the moslems head on. They're not afraid of the moslems per se. It's what comes after, that they fear.
Truth is, the central government fears a civil war. And a civil war would be the harbinger of a three pronged assault by our enemies. Pakistain, China, and India's own homegrown 'protest brigade'. The latter is composed of islamist lemurs + caste warrior commies empowered by lawyers with Sörôs' stubby fingers up their asses + erstwhile cronies of the previous administrations that made their fortunes under the Left and cannot anymore + khalistanis posing as 'farmers', etc. A concerted assault and war with them all is what awaits the Indian Union. Mobs and riots and murders and attacks in every metro, highways, facilities, infra all held to ransom by assortments of the above, while the neighbors escalate to a point of surrender or MAD.
Oh... they know we won't MAD, because it's just rear echelon faggots manning the war rooms and marigold and coconut loving hindoos holding the codes. That may verily be so. But that may not be necessary. Now our eastern neighbour, and also your fancy boys in Virginia, like to play with estimates and simulations. In some of their simulations, both have foreseen the military taking over the polity of India, a là Myanmar. Because ensuring territorial security and continuity of services becomes paramount and political imperatives are dissolved. After that, they're not dealing with civs and the bureaucrats anymore. The UN, the US HoR, the boo hoo hoo islamophile brigades of Europe and the OIC can all go fish. It'll be an India 2.0, something neither the Chinese nor the commies nor the lemurs can deal with.
Bottomline is, the civ leadership fears this militarization of the country, and Indian polity falling into the hands of a junta, after which the political class will be out of work, their accounts in the Caymans, in the EU mostly forfeited by Imperial edict from the west. They'll stomp and fret and some will just disappear. Why, I think we'd out-China China! That's what the political class fears most. Tanks rolling over their palaces and statues and temples. There's more than seventy years of hate for the political class here, bottled up with the stupid 'oath to the constitution'. The mostly European constitution is what got us here, exactly where it got the Europeans. Except they had some advantage and can last longer against the jihad and commies than we would.

They are wrong, all these experts. After all they're trying to study a very Asian phenomenon from a mostly western paradigm of humanistic ethics and conventions. I am right.
Anyone following their 'insights' into 'radicalism' and the 'pathology' of extremism is going to make strategic errors. All of islam must be targeted, if societies are to survive it. it must be eradicated. And it can be. The first step is violence, of course. The second is either forming a majoritarian republic where islam is no more recognized as a religion, or doing away with religion altogether. Stripping entities like Trusts and Foundations and congregations of community identities. Violently, like the Hans have unified their folks with batons and gut punches. Faux-humanistic conventions [I say that a lot don't I?] and kow-towing to dishonest, hypocrite concepts like the UNDHR and such is going to just cripple societies before the lawless hordes. America is seeing this in their blue states. congratulations about NY by the way, took some battered Asians and Jews but at least you can cap a brother trying to steal your lunch money now ☺
