New Rule: Words Matter | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)

newtboy says...

To my point above about the severity of the problem on the right…..




“Let’s go Brandon”, the new mating call of the North American braying moron.

@newtboy,

I do hope the aforementioned far/nutty left/right folks are the minority we think. Events like Jan. 6, or censorship, firings to appease fringes show the nutters on both ends holding more power already then I’m comfortable with.

Definitely a crazy weather event for people not in North America. The geography of the rest of the world doesn't usually allow high rating tornados.

vil said:

Historically first ever EF4 tornado in our country. The shock was such that basically everyone has new houses crowdfunded. 6 dead, not the people in the video.

Lake Oroville Drought, California

SFOGuy says...

Global warming is real; and it's coming--liberal or conservative, North, South--increasing oscillations in weather, increasingly violent oscillations--are gonna be a thing.

New Folk Hero- The Ambulance Runner

lucky760 says...

I have a meta gripe.

Why did they list the costs of the states in a seemingly random order?

They didn't list the numbers in ascending or descending value.

They didn't list the states in alphabetical order or based north-to-south and/or east-to-west, etc.

That really confused me.

1000 Year Heatwave Becoming The Norm

newtboy says...

Before "someone" spouts off about this being a singular, isolated weather event in America and Canada, it's happening world wide.
All time record high temperatures are also happening in Europe, Asia, Africa including ground temperatures in Siberia above the arctic circle at 118F, not so good for permafrost that should be near freezing. Mexico has seen all time high temperatures for June exceeding 125F, nighttime low temperatures are also shattering all time highs like 105F overnight in palm springs, and over 70F was the overnight low in S Africa (southern hemisphere) on the WINTER solstice. Let's not forget, June is typically the coolest summer month.
It's hard to imagine this not triggering feedback loops like permafrost releasing methane and less ice reflecting heat that are each, by themselves, more than we could possibly counteract with current technology with an unlimited budget and the collective will to try. Combined, and without the unlimited funds or collective will to act, it's looking like game over, man.
Somehow "we told you so" hardly seems sufficient.

White people are dumb and need to be less white

vil says...

It is a legitimate thing to ask of white people, to be less "white" and more "people". We tend to not acknowledge that we do have an advantage in our part of the world.

Why this is only asked of white people is what beats me. No one is asking the Japanese in Japan or the Chinese in China or the Koreans in South Korea or the Saudis in Saudialand to be more inclusive or care at all about the sad fate of non-locally sourced humans. Granted the Japanese get a bye because they are quietly polite about the whole "no foreigners welcome" thing.

Could it be that white people are not more or less racist than other local majorities, it just so happens that (admittedly some) white people are willing to acknowledge our own racism might be a problem?

Actually what really gets me is how North Koreans manage to be racial supremacists in the face of their everyday reality.

StukaFox says...

Wait -- she has eyebrows?! I guess I never got that far north on her. Also, you have great taste in late-70s TV SciFi babes!

newtboy said:

I always wondered....If she can metamorph into anything, why does she still have lines of warts for eyebrows?

I'm hoping we freeze à la Buck Rogers, then maybe I can have my own Colonel Wilma Deering.

Urine Crazed Goats Fly Home

StukaFox says...

They do that.

There's talk here in WA about re-introducing Grizzly Bears into North Cascades National Park and Olympic National Park, but the eastern Washington cattle associations get their tits in a wringer anytime this topic, or the similar one involving the re-introduction of wolves, comes up.

Incidentally, if you're ever in Winthrop, Twisp or Mazama and feel like getting your ass kicked, just tell a local you like wolves. Those fucking people...

I don't understand why they needed to do that with the animation at the very end. Is that a thing goats actually do, or were they just leaning into "let's make it clear to the people: these goats will fuck" ?
