Friday Night Open Thread

Bring the cat in, just in case.

Plans call for Starliner to undock from the station at 6:04 p.m. Eastern Sept. 6. It will move away from the station and then perform a deorbit burn, setting up a landing at White Sands Space Harbor in New Mexico at 12:03 a.m. Eastern Sept. 7, or six hours after undocking.

Right about now.

Ah, Frack It!

Let’s extract a little gas out of this rock before it’s all over.

If Kamala wins, it’ll mean eight years of socializing our republic.

If Trump wins, there’s a four-year delay, and then the effort begins again.

Madame President

I just want to post this prediction here, for bragging rights if it comes true:

  1. Joe Biden will either resign the presidency or be incapacitated before January. May wait to see how the election turns out.

2. Kamala will become the first woman president. Yay!

3. In the flurry of good vibes, she will issue a pardon to Joe, Hunter, and other Biden clan members of any federal crimes — the real reason for her ascent.

I feel this in my bones to be 70-80% likely.

Mary Ann: Mmmmph!

Oppo: Don’t fret, little lady.

[Subdues cannibal, kicks aside Gilligan and spear.]

Mary Ann: Mmmmph!

Oppo: Let me untie you. I’d never take advantage of a woman in your predicament. [Unties her.]

Mary Ann: Mmmph!

Oppo: Oh, yeah, the gag. Let me get that off your mouth. Now you just run along to where you’ll be safe, and I’ll keep these hombres from following you.

Mary Ann: You’re quite a man!

Oppo [Spanks her playfully] Git, little lady!

So at least I get something out of this little scene.

Straight Line of the Day: Advantages or Disadvantages of Marrying a Ghost…

Woman who married ghost says she was attacked by spirit of mass murderer on visit to haunted prison
NY Post | 8-29-24

A woman who married then divorced a ghost has summoned the spirit of an American mass murderer – in a prison’s death row.

Spooky singer Brocarde says she conjured the ghost of Carroll Edward “Eddie” Cole at The Nevada State Penitentiary in the USA.

She was conducting a paranormal investigation at the former jail – and says he tried to possess her body.

Brocarde, from Oxfordshire in the UK, was filming while locked inside the execution chamber on its death row.

Friday Classic Funny

“Good morning Mr. Walrus. What in the wide, wide world of sports is going on?”

“Looks like WordPress is going bonkers. Slow at times, sometimes just not working.”

“Any idea why?”

“I’m blaming Russian hackers trying to give cover to the FBI to make them think this is to help Trump get elected when it is really a psyop to help Harris, Putin’s prefered choice.”

“That is devious.”

“That’s the Russians for you.”

That’s it for today. WordPress just keeps cycling and won’t let me load anything more. Hope they fix it soon. Help us Basil, not Basil, you’re our only hope!
