One of my three or four favorite cat vids. I am not a general cat vid collector (I like cats and dogs and most animals, but am of the Samuel Jackson persuasion that they generally are not “clean”, so not really into house-animals), but this one is so freaking “out of nowhere” hilarious…
Only one of our 2 cat sisters chattered at outside animals, both liked to watch them from the window.
Bear this in mind.
If your house cats suddenly grew in size and weight to 500 pounds, they would lose little time in ripping you pieces.
If your dog suddenly grew in size and weight to 500 pounds they would likely try to sit in your lap and crush you with love.
Therein lies the difference. Make of it what you will.

This was illustrated to me last week on a Ryan McBeth YouTube video where he analyzed video showing an IDF tank lighting up a “civilian” car in Gazaland. The media reported it as an IDF tank killing innocent civilians. Ryan noted that the car had obvious signs of being a VBIED (vehicle borne IED (car bomb)) and noted that it was not unusual from his experience in Iraq for VBIEDS to be paired with photojourna”lusts” who were media stringers and terrorist photographers. But Ryan couldn’t be “sure” it would be happening in Gaza.
Honestly if true it’s far past time. And I’ve felt for years that the likes of Al Jazeera need to be identified as terrorist organizations whose members are liable for summary execution if and when seen.
Propaganda is deadly. We’ve seen this for centuries at least. Goebbels would’ve been hanged had he not unalived himself (along with his evil wife and their innocent children), Streicher was and was killed, and Fritzsche would have been if we understood the depths of his depravity and involvement. The Hutu Power radio stations that played a key role setting the stage for the genocides were found to be criminally liable and tried as culpable in genocide.
Why not terrorist outlets? Frankly we need to stop treating journalists as some kind of sacred cows, and have for decades.

“1) Their attitude seemed to be that they believed the government (funded by tax payers) should provide health care for people without the means to purchase insurance. They also seemed to believe it would be wrong to use the government service if one had the means to pay for private insurance.”
• Very interesting.
• Was aware of the income threshold – that permitted the purchase of private insurance – but was not sure of motivation to do so.
• Strikes me that the German motivation is more “shared responsibility” than “individual benefit” (i.e., for some countries private offers better service, etc.).
• Admirable.
• Always appreciate hearing the perspective of those who have the experience – country, occupation, etc.
• Also, a big believer in “cross-pollination”, or that a good idea can come from anywhere/ anyone.
I’ve semi-seriously joked that the unification of Germany and its consequences have been disasterous for the human race, and I’d certainly argue Prussian style Welfarism has been. For whatever its other benefits (and there’s no reason to doubt that many of its motivations even by the ruthless old fox Bismarck himself were genuinely meant to help), it was consciously molded to foster control and dependence by a big, authoritarian state upon citizens, and it has worked horrifyingly well. It also has gone on for so long in the Western world that I really don’t see any good ways to transition away from it or what it’d be reformed with, but it is downright eerie and amazing how many of our problems today were influenced by Imperial Germany.
Unfortunately for welfare the problem is that the German system was originally created so that most people would never receive a cent from it, even though virtually everyone paid in, with the age range being placed above life expectancy. One problem that we’ve seen is that the collapse of the Reichs as well as the rise of democratic or even populist (like the Nazis) politics has seen life expectancies rise but also any resistance to raising the age of retirement, with the result that these things are habitually insolvent.
And that largely becomes evident at a time when the system is already so entrenched, dependence is widespread, and there are no good ways to fix any of it.
For some reason…I’d like Ozzy Man to narrate that cat video.
Stephen Gaskin, the hippie guru of Haight Street circa 1967, speculated that flocks of birds and schools of fish make those sharp unison turns by telepathy. Stephen believed that telepathy was true.
It does look like that could be true.
However, decades later computer scientists found they could reproduce that effect precisely by a simple algorithm in which each member of a swarm regulates its position by maintaining a constant distance to its closest neighbors in the swarm.
So if the swarm leader changes direction the change propagates near instantaneously throughout.

“Life expectancy” commonly means life expectancy at birth. The people paying into the system are not newborns. Life expectancy at birth in the United States was about 63 years in 1940. The additional expected lifespan of a person of 38 was 30 years, not 25 years, at that time.
All these comments about cats by people that obviously don’t own cats.
Our cats are as cuddly and socialized as any dog, greet us at the door when we arrive home, come running when we call them, join us on the floor when doing our home workouts (my God, they *love* when we’re on the floor with them), sleep with us, get up when we do, and generally provide great fun, enjoyment and companionship. Otis, our three-month-old new kitten is actively helping me type this, but I swear, he is not dictating. Well, he did dictate the “fun, enjoyment and companionship” part, but I agree.
