It's nowhere near October, but one ensemble is already on track to be named the most controversial Halloween costume of 2015.

Social media users were out in full force on Monday criticizing several Halloween retailers for offering a Caitlyn Jenner costume reminiscent of the former-athlete's Vanity Fair cover earlier this year.

While Jenner's supporters condemned the costume as "transphobic" and "disgusting" on Twitter, Spirit Halloween, a retailer that carries the costume, defended the getup.

"At Spirit Halloween, we create a wide range of costumes that are often based upon celebrities, public figures, heroes and superheroes," said Lisa Barr, senior director of marking at Spirit Halloween. "We feel that Caitlyn Jenner is all of the above and that she should be celebrated. The Caitlyn Jenner costume reflects just that."

No not the teenagers
According to a new study, long-term exposure to air pollution can increase the risk of high blood pressure in teenagers. When blood pressure gets too high, it becomes hypertension which causes heart attacks and strokes.

No need to guess who financed the study in question I presume?
 

An indoor cat who escaped from his Ohio home was reunited with his owner after surviving 18 months in the wild.

Richard Campbell, a retired Miami University professor, said his cat, Calvin, escaped from his Oxford home while family members were visiting in April 2021.


Campbell said Calvin had been an indoor cat ever since the feline and his brother were rescued from a tree as kittens in 2017.

There was no trace of Calvin until this fall, when Susan Prochaska, a fellow retired professor, spotted a cat wandering loose on the edge of the Miami University Natural Areas.

"Over approximately two weeks, I would go twice a day and call the cat and provide food and water," Prochaska told the Oxford Journal-News. "Eventually, the cat started to come closer but would disappear each time after he ate."

Prochaska was finally able to capture the feline Oct. 29, and a few days later she took him to a veterinarian who scanned the cat for a microchip.

"He was able to be reunited with his family because he had a microchip with his family's contact information. Without it, I wouldn't have known Calvin's story," Prochaska said.


Campbell said Calvin was treated for stomach parasites and tick bites, but is now settling in back at home.

"It is rare for an indoor cat to survive for 18 months in the wild," he said.

The Salem Animal Rescue League in New Hampshire said a woman was recently reunited with her own missing cat after an even longer period of time: four years. The group said a woman preparing to move out of town contacted the group because she was concerned about a stray cat she had been feeding on her porch.

The SARL team was able to capture the cat and use her microchip to identify the feline as Gigi, an 11-year-old tabby belonging to Casey Munroe. Monroe said Gigi had been an indoor/outdoor cat before failing to come home about four years ago.

It's almost like national borders exist for a reason and one of the definitions of a nation is being able to control its borders, and nations that don't are called "failed states."

Well the Chinese system only works because the Chinese have spent the last 3500 years breeding their sons to be docile and obedient.

I know the Jews think they're something special but the United States is going to grind you up and eat you just like every other culture it's encountered.
 
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/stephaniemcneal/acacia-kersey-quits Not the freshest article, but I got some follow-up: many of her haters are from this Twitter community called OT or opinion Twitter, which is indeed obsessed with hating on Acacia in this really moralistic way and belongs to this Twitter/Reddit snark school of thought that believes that someone has to be considered problematic in order to be ethically considered a lolcow. She is objectively worthy of a lot of the criticism, especially with how she treats her disabled baby, but it's just that the people in that community don't know of ''if you have to say you're better than someone, you're probably not.'' Also, a week or two ago, somebody actually tricked her husband into getting him drunk and raping him and then showed someone from OT a picture of him asleep, making it seem like she hooked up with him and therefore showed the world unequivocal proof that he was indeed cheating on Acacia, even if circumstantial evidence made it seem that he was indeed doing it because he was hanging out in college bars despite being too old to be in college. Not saying that most of opinion Twitter condoned it, because it didn't, but this is a good example of OT at its worst and most obsessive.

Animal control officers in New York came to the rescue of a dog that fell through the ice of a partially frozen lake and was struggling to swim.

The Orchard Park Police Department said in a Facebook post that animal control officers responded to Green Lake on Wednesday morning when a dog fell through the thin ice.


"Upon arrival the dog was swimming in deep water and on the verge of drowning. Ropes were used along with a catch poll to get the dog out of the water," the post said.

The department said the rescue should serve as a reminder to stay off the thin ice covering ponds and lakes in the area.

Animal Rescue League: Make every day Turkey Day by adopting ‘Kate,’ the ‘happy-go-lucky’ turkey​


By James Paleologopoulos

DEDHAM, MASS. (WHDH) - A recent arrival at the Animal Rescue League in Dedham won’t be on anyone’s Thanksgiving dinner table this year, and could be a welcome addition to any household looking for a poultry pet.

“Kate” the domesticated turkey is up for adoption, according to the ARL, after the 1-year-old bird was dropped off at their facility. Her previous owners reportedly rescued her from a farm where she was destined to be a future meal, but later parted ways with her when they had to move, leaving her with the animal rescue group.

Mike DeFina, the communications and media relations officer for the ARL, said Kate has developed quite the personality since she started living as a pet.

“Her personality’s wonderful, very curious, very friendly – she actually allows herself to be pet, which is great, and she seeks attention, likes being around people, enjoys being around other animals,” DeFina said. “She’s just a very happy-go-lucky turkey.”

For those interested in adopting Kate, an ideal new home would have plenty of outdoor space. She is also able to stay outside in the winter, but would need a shed or shelter to keep warm.

Kate also has wingmates in the form of two chicken friends, making them like “Three Musketeers,” according to the ARL. However, adopting the chickens are not required for anyone interested in the turkey, though adopting all three is an option.

VIDEO: Man heckles US soldiers in Polish mall, accuses them of being spreaders of ‘sodomy,’ and claims it’s ‘America’s no. 1 export’

Archive

Video
A video of an unidentified man harassing U.S. soldiers in a Polish mall has been uploaded to social media, with the man asking the soldiers if they were in Poland to “spread sodomy,” claiming it was “America’s number one export.”

The man is seen approaching four uniformed American soldiers, three of which appear to be White males and the other a Black or Hispanic male. The man first asks the soldiers, “You guys Americans? Are you guys here to spread sodomy or what? Isn’t that what America’s number one export is?”

The soldiers first laugh but then appear to try and ignore the man, who continues to follow them. He then asks them, “What is it? Is it George Floyd culture, is it sodomy?”

It is unclear where in Poland the video was filmed, but it is clearly a Polish mall. Although the man speaks with what appears to be an American accent, he refers to Poland as his country.

He then asks the soldiers about Admiral Rachel L. Levine, a four-star general, who serves as U.S. Health Secretary, and is one of the few openly transgender officials in the United States’ administration.

“What do you guys think about your health secretary being a f**king tranny? Hey, guys. What do you guys think about your health secretary being a tranny? Nothing?” he asks. Later, he adds, “You guys literally have fucking transexuals that wear dresses that are your fucking superiors.”

He then continues trailing the soldiers through the mall, asking, “What do you guys think about defending a country that has… there’s no meaning to be a citizen? Like any, any Mexican crossing the border is literally one of you.”

He then warns the soldiers, who are growing visibly irritated towards the end of the video, to “keep Poland White,” and tells them to “stay away from those White women because miscegenation used to be a crime in your country.”

He is likely referring to laws against interracial relationships, which were ruled unconstitutional in 1967 by the Supreme Court. The last state to repeal its law against miscegenation was Alabama in 2000.

The cameraman then appears to challenge the soldiers, saying multiple times, “What are you going to do? (…) You guys here to spread some fucking homo worship? You get called out on it. Show us what a tough guy you are. You’ve got an AR15?”

The cameraman then hurls racial epithets at the soldiers as they walk outside the mall, screaming, “Yeah. You’re in a white country now. We don’t worship n*****s and Mexicans.”

One of the soldiers appears to want to turn around and confront the cameraman, but the other soldier pushes him away from the scene.

Although the United States was once 90 percent White, it has seen a dramatic fall of its White population in just a few decades, falling to under 60 percent as of 2022. New estimates say that the White majority may become a minority as soon as the end of 2030 due to a surge in non-White Hispanics and other non-White groups through both immigration and higher birth rates. Poland, in contrast, is still close to nearly entirely White European, with 96.9 percent of ethnic Polish descent, with the remaining balance mostly Ukrainians and other European groups.

The Polish government is on record as being committed to anti-racism, but has also promoted a strict immigration policy that Poles appear to overwhelmingly favor. Hate speech laws in the country may result in prosecution if the man’s identity comes to light. In addition, Poland is one of the United States’ closest military allies, with the country hosting a large contingent of U.S. soldiers in Poland as a part of the NATO agreements.

‘SMART CITIES’ Worldwide Being Converted Into ‘Open Concentration Camps,’ Says Ex-Silicon Valley Engineer Turned Whistleblower

SMART Cities’ worldwide being converted into ‘open concentration camps,’ says ex-Silicon Valley engineer turned whistleblower

Guest post by Leo Hohmann
Aman Jabbi is a native of India and an engineer who worked in Silicon Valley for 25 years, co-inventor of two cellphone camera apps. He emigrated to the United States in 1988 because he admired America’s culture of liberty and ingenuity.
Jabbi now lives in Big Fork, Montana, and has become, in my opinion, one of the most important whistleblowers and voices of warning about the coming beast system.
His message needs to be heard by all Americans and I highly recommend my readers find one hour during the Thanksgiving weekend to hear him out in the video I have posted below. If you agree with me that his message is essential, please share this article and the video with your friends and family.
Before you can break out of the matrix, you need to know that you live in a matrix, and that involves recognizing the tentacles of the matrix gaining a stranglehold on your life.
Most of us spend way too much time focused on the wrong things. We talk endlessly about what’s going on in Washington when we’ve invited the beast system right into our homes, even get it injected into our own bodies. We place ourselves on a path to destruction out of fear, lack of information (ignorance) and lack of discernment.
Even if you live in a red state like Florida, Georgia, Tennessee or Texas, you will not be insulated or protected from the beast system because its claws are already dug into the infrastructure of all 50 states.
We have people, well-intentioned people, in the conservative movement who make their living warning us about the socialists, the communists or the Islamists.
Here’s the hard truth: We could eliminate every single socialist, communist and Islamist from America tomorrow and we would still be in a heap of trouble because the globalists already have the laws and technological infrastructure in place to convert our Republic into a technocratic slave state.
