Dear KAG: 20210630 Open Thread


Rather than concentrating on the brat who placed third, please, join me in celebrating two ladies who will be representing the USA in the Olympics throwing a hammer.

Seriously, watch this. The little brat didn’t even come close to the gold medalist. DeAnna Price put on a heck of a show, and I’m not into track & field at all.

And now for the fashion segment of today’s daily….

Scratch that. It looks like “doctor” Jill’s keepers got into the upholstery fabric.

Seriously, wouldn’t that Chintz look great on a sofa?

And the latest in COVID accessories.

For the rest of us:

Why? Well, some of the victims of pharmaceutical propaganda talked to a Congressional Committee this week, and the tragedies are truly heartbreaking despite the stupidity of the people consenting to being jabbed and doing the same to their kids.

And about those pharmaceutical reps who used to infest the medical school where I worked like cockroaches:

That ain’t no joke.

And then there was this:

And:

Wait, we need serious stuff.

And possibly the wave of the future:

And the obligatory George Carlin:

Per the Boss:

Almost forgot the tunes.

And now for the obligatory message from our sponsors:

Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.

Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone

Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.

Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.

Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out.

Auntie DePat’s requests as we are all, ahem, adults, not uncivilized pygmies:

If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.

Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

One other vital note:

Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.

Those with a weak stomach might want to scroll past this.

MATTHEW 8:28-34

28And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two demoniacs met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way. 29And behold, they cried out, “What have you to do with us, O Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?” 30Now a herd of many swine was feeding at some distance from them. 31And the demons begged him, “If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of swine.” 32And he said to them, “Go.” So they came out and went into the swine; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and perished in the waters. 33The herdsmen fled, and going into the city they told everything, and what had happened to the demoniacs. 34And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him, they begged him to leave their neighborhood.

“Our task is not one of producing persuasive propaganda; Christianity shows its greatness when it is hated by the world.”St. Ignatius of Antioch

As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.

Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.

It looks like this octopus does not want to be dinner.
