-Short Attention Span Theater-
It Matters When You Were Born
[CarmaGOP] It’s evident that Government controls and regulations are hazardous to you’re health. This raises a question: why do we want more and larger Government? The Government is killing us!

Love this.... and it's mostly true, so true that it hurts to know that the youth of today will never know that peace, security and tranquility we enjoyed.

This is worth reading. Brings back great memories!

Game Processing
[BeeMaster] There are many different ways to butcher and process large animals. At the "shouted" request of 15th, I'm posting the way I do it ...

I do all of my own butchering and meat processing - from pulling the trigger (or releasing the arrow) to smoking the sausages and drying the jerky. From Bear (just got one 2 weeks ago), to Deer, to Elk, to Antelope, to Cattle, to Pigs, etc. We made a roast in the slow cooker over the weekend - Bear and Elk - Amazing!

For the record - I will not eat any meat with a "Gamey" flavor. I throw up at the smell of it - instantly. ... and unfortunately, many people have "gamey" meat because they don't handle the meat properly - which is as simple as killing the naturally occurring bacteria in the meat as fast as possible. This is done by "chilling" getting the meat below 40 degrees as fast as possible. The bacteria begin attacking the meat the moment the animal dies - the bacteria then begin to "outgas". It is the "outgassing" of the bacteria that is the source of the "gamey" flavor. ... or at least, this is my understanding of what occurs.

My meat never has a Gamey flavor.

#3  I generally quarter, strip out backstrap (and pig equivalent) and tenderloins within an hour of taking a deer or pig, and put them on ice. Then finish butchering and packaging and freezing within 48 hours. If I have time I harvest additional meat from the neck, ribs, etc. but if not, the coyotes get dessert. I have yet to have 'gamey' flavored meat (though some venison is unpleasantly 'turpentine' flavored, if the deer browsed too much pine.) And I have kept some frozen five years and used it without problem (though it did take some aggressive trimming of the freezer burned areas.)

-Land of the Free
Mean man says mean, er, true things on Twitter...
[ZH] Dr. J Michael Burry of "The Big Short" fame went on a massive Twitter rant Tuesday, where he posted a series of tweets - including a fact check on Ivermectin, who's actually paying their 'fair share' of taxes, how many genders exist, and a defense of former President Donald J. Trump.

On taxes, Burry - who has since locked his account - tweeted "Top 1%, 20.9% of income, 40.1% of taxes. Bottom 90% paid just 28.6% of taxes. Top 1% tax rate is 7X HIGHER than rate paid by the bottom 50%. Biden tells rich to "pay like everybody else does." So, a tax cut for the rich? Or class warfare built on lies."

On Trump, Burry noted that the former president "NEVER said to inject bleach," adding "If you did, again, you fail Darwinism. If you still believe it, you did not read his comments, or you cannot read his comments, or you cannot hear his comments, or you just blindly follow people on the internet #TDS"

On Ivermectin, Burry noted that it's "a drug that works well in humans and other mammals," adding "Ignorance reigns supreme in the media and on social media regarding this drug. Used in humans since the 70s, wide experience, safe, Period." (And of course, receipts).

On self-hating Americans who trash the nation's history, Burry wrote "Those with better tech conquer, brutally, all through history. How did the Aztek empire get so big, or the Romans? African wars to this day. Ridiculous to bash America or apologize for our founding. You think the Chinese will cut themselves 200 years after they conquer us?"

On the state of 'persecution targeting conservatives' - Burry says that it "permeates society from K through college and into the workforce," adding "Media, Big Tech, Intelligence Agencies, DoJ, IRS are complicit. This is dead serious, and no laughing matter."

Black Robed tyrant dismisses Georgia case alleging absentee ballot voter fraud
[Washington Examiner] A judge has granted the motion to dismiss a Georgia case alleging voter fraud in Fulton County during the 2020 election on the grounds that the petitioners, who are members of voting integrity group VoterGA, lack the legal standing to make the charges.

Superior Court Judge Brian Amero decided Wednesday that "regardless of the veracity of [fraud] allegations, the Court finds Petitioners have still failed to allege a particularized injury." The lawsuit sought an independent investigation of Fulton County’s 147,000 absentee ballots amid allegations that a substantial number had been cast fraudulently for Joe Biden, possibly costing then-President Trump a victory in the county.

#1  SuperiorCourt Judge Brian Amero decided Wednesday that “regardless of the veracity of [fraud] allegations, the Court finds Petitioners have still failed to allege a particularized injury.”

Apparently the judge hasn't purchased a tank of gasoline, picked up a restaurant tab, or taken note of recent events in Afghanistan or on our Southern border lately.

#2  Particularize this, asshole. You're trashing our democracy, ruining the nation's economy, burning our cities, demonizing normal families, destroying our heritage and the Constitution, ruining millions of households and causing thousands of our brave young men and women to die overseas due to your incompetence, neglect, stupidity and corruption. THAT's a grievance both general AND "particularized."

#3 


Massive Fraud in any county the size of Fulton co. GA. does give grounds to any legal resident in the GA.

Especially when the slim margin for the stolen attainment is easily hidden within the large numbers for such large counties.

This will be appealed.....

#4  ...on the grounds that the petitioners, who are members of voting integrity group VoterGA, lack the legal standing to make the charges.

The new tried & true excuse to look the other way on all of these lawsuits. Petitioner has no standing to insure a fair & free election, and that goes for the rest of us.
