Because you insanely still insist the MAGA attack against democracy on Jan 6 was unarmed…
Guy Reffitt was found guilty of charges related to the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, Self proclaimed “fucking idiot” who smashed his way into the capitol and attacked police with a gun and zip ties, one of many well armed MAGgots who absolutely planned to disrupt official procedures using violence because Trump told him to, convicted of 5 counts, sentenced to 7 years in prison…a gift.

This is the moron who threatened to kill his children if they talked about him attacking the capitol, his son turned him in.

All convicted of Jan 6 should be shot in the head and left in Death Valley to die slowly, especially the ring leader. Treason has one sentence, and violently attacking the government to try to take control by force is a definition of treason.

Don’t be surprised when being a MAGgot becomes such a badge of dishonor MAGgots start offing themselves because their friends hate them, their families hate them, they can’t get a job because no one hires traitors, they can’t get assistance because their party voted it out of existence, they can’t even get solace from religion because Jesus was a total liberal.
I’ll buy the bullets. 😂

West Coast Cherry Crops Destroyed By Heatwave

newtboy says...

And now the swarms of locusts (ok, really grasshoppers) begin.

Utah farmers, already struggling with drought and extreme heat, are being plagued by grasshoppers destroying what little crops they managed to grow. Early heat caused an early hatch, leading to swarms. Many farmers abandoned their crops rather than go through the expense of spraying a crop they have no water for, allowing a bad situation to get exponentially worse. Hay may soon be in short supply along with produce.

If it's a mild winter, expect worse next year when their eggs hatch. Without improvement in the weather, colder in winter wetter in spring and cooler in summer, farmers nationwide expect next year to be far worse than this year's disastrous growing season. Nevada and Arizona are due to lose their main water source soon, and California expects more water shortages statewide as reservoirs near empty and aquifers go dry.

Sure sounds like the climatologists were correct, if anything minimizing the effects and rate of change from climate change; heat, drought, plagues, swarms, fires. They were not exaggerating them @bobknight33. These are exactly what they predicted, just a decade early, and exactly what you denied would happen. All time high local temperatures were reached worldwide in the last month including ground temperatures of 118 F in arctic Siberia and 130 F last weekend in Death Valley, the hottest atmospheric air temperature ever seen on the planet since humans existed.

But nope, climate change is a liberal hoax, they just have the entire planet lying to support it, destroying their own crops and cooking their citizens to keep the lie going. 🤦‍♂️

I hope you live long enough for your children to accept that their disastrous future was caused by you and your ilk and abandon you to the baking streets in your old age to starve and bake. You ignorant and dishonest deniers deserve worse for decimating the only planet we have. Your children will come to that conclusion, the only question is when.

Caterpillar loader in Kuwait is boiling hot

ReverendTed says...

I'm curious if the "58" refers to Celcius. That would be 136.4 F, and higher than the highest officially-recorded temperature on Earth at 57.6 C in Death Valley, CA back in 1913.
Kuwait does have one of the top four, though, at 54 C.

The song of the dunes

shagen454 says...

Love me some sand dunes. I've heard low droning sounds while out in Guadalupe sand dunes in central california and in Death Valley. I remember researching why and there were some theories - something about grain size (changes pitch), friction & amplification from a layer of moisture below the surface and sand collision upon the surface creating vibrations that in turn create a feedback loop of low frequency. Stony stuff, lol!

Frying An Egg In Death Valley

Dry Ice Moves on Mars

mxxcon says...

You mean in a death valley, one of the hottest place on earth, there's naturally occurring frozen carbon dioxide, whose melting point is -108.4°F (-78°C) and boiling point is -70.6°F (-57°C)?

Unlikely.

Heard about the rocks that move strangely in the desert? Could that be the same type of thing as the dry ice?

Football (soccer) in a nutshell

Yogi says...

I thought you were having some fun but I still felt it needed to be addressed, it's an oft repeated prejudice. Anyways I still contend that Ultramarathoners are tougher than anyone. Running 24 hours at a time...sometimes in high altitude with little oxygen or in 120 degrees through death valley. They're the toughest people on the planet in my view. It's one thing to play through pain, it's another to do it for hours upon hours. That's just my opinion, the voice in my head is the only thing that holds me back.

First up, did you miss the smiley at the end of my post? That would be the hint that I wasn't 100% serious.

As it happens, I know a few guys who play gridiron in NZ and they're tough as nails.

The only athletes I have no time for are road bikers. Drug-taking, lycra-wearing pussies, the lot of them*.

Regarding boxing, I fully agree with you. Personally, I think we should go back to bare knuckle boxing for exactly that reason, but I know it'd never sell. People are perfectly happy to have boxers brain damaged, but god forbid we see some blood. That would be barbaric.

Finally as far as ultra marathon guys go, I have huge respect for them, but you're confusing fitness with toughness. But they don't have to be, any more than a rugby player needs to run at a constant pace for 3 hours.

*For the humour impaired, this is an example of hyperbole combined with an overly broad generalisation for a cheap laugh. I acknowledge that some road bikers don't take drugs, and that in general they're very fit. But they still wear lycra, so there.

Extreme Pennyfarthing

Rolling down into Death Valley after about 16,500 miles on the road.
This is the safest way to go down a hill on a Pennyfarthing, as when you have the accident you go feet rather than face first onto the tarmac.
I completed the round the world journey in November 2008 after 2 1/2 years, 22,000 miles on the road, and having visited 25 countries.

Yeah, landing on your feet will be much safer, at least before the first 3 flips.


I think I would trust the dude who rode 22,000 miles on the thing rather than people who have never seen one, like, um, us.

Bill Maher Lays Down The Smack On US Pharmaceutical Business

snoozedoctor says...

Drug companies should not be able to do direct advertising. This one is right on the money. I see it every day. Americans want someone, other than themselves, to be responsible for their health. They don't see value in advice, they want a pill, something tangible that's going to make them feel better right away. It used to be rare, but now I regularly see patients so obese, they can't breathe. They're eating themselves to death. If the trend continues, the whole U.S. will drop below sea-level from the pressure. It will, literally, become Death Valley.

Samuel Johnson once said something like, "whatever might be the quantity of food a man eats, one can say that if he is too fat, he has eaten more than he should."
