It’s Tuesday, who brought the tacos?
“Robert Nozick explains socialism’s attraction to intellectuals: they don’t care about the “working class”. Rather, they resent capitalists for earning more money than them, despite their apparently inferior merit. They’re disappointed meritocrats, not suffering laborers.” ~~ Russ Greene

Is this guy absolutely stark raving mad?
Mamdani’s definition of socialism sounds like state-controlled ‘totalitarianism’: critics
NY Post | 10/03/26 | Rich CalderFar-left New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani offered an impassioned definition of socialism this week — one critics say rivals state-controlled totalitarianism — claiming in a podcast interview that it’s the job of the government to ensure the masses have “whatever you need.”
“Socialism, to me, it means that you will have whatever you need to live a dignified life and that it is the government’s job to deliver on that.”
… People talk about it as the extension of democracy . . .
— the extension of government intrusion —
. . . from the ballot box to the rest of your life.
“What do people mean by . . .
— government intrusion in —
. . . the rest of your life? They mean your workplace, your home, things like that.”
“When people say dignity, I want to be very clear, we’re talking about the things that allow you to take a breath: housing, childcare, public transit,” the mayor said. “No one should be priced out of these things. These are non-negotiables; you need these to live.”
— as is CO2, but that’s another discussion.
Good night.

“Rove and his ilk claim that taking sides against us is mandated by their principles. What principles? We understand what the principles of our alleged betters in the conservative (sic) movement really are. They’re not a set of rigid standards that must be adhered to at all costs and hazards; they’re a joke, a ploy to manipulate the rubes, moral Calvinball for people who demand our respect and obedience yet hold us in utter contempt.” ~~ Kurt Schlichter

Well it all comes down to our last match. Best of luck to the contestants. I am also including the list of the first group of Division 6, Group AO. I say tentative because I am not sure about availability of good photos to choose from.

I wasn’t hungry at all until I ran across this guy in a news forum:
I’ve got sorghum molasses in my pantry.
Pour a tablespoonful onto your plate along with a pat of butter and mix with your fork. Break open a steaming-hot cat’s head biscuit and spoon the mix over the top. Cut and eat with a fork. Plum larruping.
Or once your bacon is cooked and out of the skillet, pour off the grease, put the skillet back on the heat and pour in a tbsp of molasses. Stir with a spoon, scraping the bottom to incorporate the crusty bacon bits, then spoon over the bacon. Best bacon you’ll ever eat.
That’s working man food. A hundred years ago, that’s the way our farmer ancestors et at every meal.
That’s also the first time I ever heard of “cat’s head biscuits,” but I get the image.
I just wish “pantry” didn’t sound so much like “panty.”
