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."

Turkey to deport Japanese man killing, eating kittens

A Japanese national, identified by the initials D.M., is set to be deported after the police in Istanbul fined him for killing and eating kittens, Daily Sabah reports. The newspaper reported that...

I think this is taking the idea of a cat café to a worrying new level. But seriously, I'd have liked to see this guy get more than just a fine. Maybe eaten by kittens.

 

[biophonic]

To be fair, it is turkey. The same country on the verge of civil war because erdogan is an idiot and is desperate to be part of the EU because their economy depends on tourism and trade. but tbh, the person who killed those cats is a piece of shit,

IKEA Juneteenth menu of watermelon, fried chicken sparks outrage

Ikea Juneteenth menu with watermelon, fried chicken sparks outrage

An attempt to honor Juneteenth has backfired spectacularly for one Georgia Ikea.

An Atlanta branch of the Scandinavian furniture chain has sparked outrage with what employees are calling an intensely problematic menu curated to celebrate the holiday, which marks the emancipation of the very last enslaved Americans.

“To honor the perseverance of Black Americans and acknowledge the progress yet to be made, we observe Juneteenth on Saturday, June 19, 2021,” begins an email acquired by TMZ, which was sent to employees at the branch last week. “Look out for a special menu on Saturday which will include: fried chicken, watermelon, mac n cheese, potato salad, collard greens, candied yams.”

The selection, including items that have historically been used to demean African-Americans through stereotyping, resulted in multiple employees calling out of work in protest, according to a local news channel.

“You cannot say serving watermelon on Juneteenth is a soul food menu when you don’t even know the history. They used to feed slaves watermelon,” an anonymous employee told Atlanta’s CBS 46. “It caused a lot of people to be upset. People actually wanted to quit. People weren’t coming back to work.”

As many as 33 workers didn’t show up in response, CBS reported, causing the store’s manager to apologize via internal email.

“She said, ‘I truly apologize. The menu came off [offensive],’” the employee recalled.

But this wasn’t sufficient for forgiveness, and the worker said the controversy could have been easily avoided if only people of color had been included in the team that chose the menu. “None of the co-workers who sat down to create the menu, no one was black,” they added.

The following day, the store manager told CBS a new, revised menu was released. The updated version included collard greens, cornbread, mashed potatoes and meatloaf. And Sunday’s menu? “Fried chicken, mac ’n’ cheese, collard greens,” the employee said.

Ikea did not return The Post’s request for comment.

Democratic Congressmen Joe Morelle from the 25th District of New York introduced the Fair Repair Act bill. The bill says that manufacturers would be required to diagnostic repair information, parts, and tools readily available to small businesses and consumers. If say your parts breaks and you don't have the money to send it to a manufacture to fix, you will have the information to do it yourself at a smaller cost.

Thoughts on this? Of course, this from Joe Morelle from one of the most pozzed states in the country so it's natural to be skeptical. Still, worth posting just to see what others think of it.

Anything that hurts large corporations. We'll never live normal lives again until they're all gone. Because of that you should still support jew and jew-adjacent legislation that hurts globohomo companies.

I would imagine this bill is in response to the recent trend of companies egregiously controlling their IP after purchase, enabled by gay electronic doodads and computer-controlled everything. John Deere has been the most notorious so far, voiding warranties and bricking entire tractors if people tried to work on them solo.

The full BCS computerization of cars via their "infotainment" consoles (the people responsible for this should be thrown off a bridge) is part of this trend. I dunno much about tech-ing on the absolute newest shit but I'm guessing they've made it even harder and are doing the same "We'll void your warranty on this already heavily depreciating piece of shit you bought" power play to fuck with the last few customers that can turn a wrench.

I'd have to read the bill, it might have dumb shit in it, but as long as it doesn't have pork or slavery reparations and is aimed at big companies, it's OK by me.

EDIT: Most people don't know this, but the already barely-reasonable and steadily climbing price of mechanical labor is due almost entirely to the expensive-ass diagnostic computers, manufacturer system access/assistance, and special tools/machines that shops have to purchase to stay productive.

BOMBSHELL: California Has 1.8M More Registered Voters Than it Should​

Election Integrity Project reports 100,000 of them had their birth states changed from other states or countries to California

By Katy Grimes, June 22, 2021 12:17 pm

California’s November 3, 2020 election was marred by significant voting and registration irregularities, says the Election Integrity Project® California, Inc. (EIPCa).
The non-partisan organization analyzed the state’s official voter list of February 9, 2021 and reported its findings to California’s Secretary of State Shirley Weber June 17, 2021. “This followed EIPCa reports of 2020 cross-state voting on April 30 and May 18, 2021 that the Secretary has ignored. EIPCa’s June report cites California’s election code that requires officials to provide timely answers to citizens’ questions.”
“Many in the nation are questioning the validity of the 2020 general election in their states,” EIPCa President Linda Paine said Tuesday.
“Mass irregularities in California’s registration and voting numbers continue to erode voter confidence here and we are hopeful Secretary Weber will immediately address our questions.”
EIPCa seeks answers to the following questions, on behalf of California voters:

• Why are there almost 124,000 more votes counted in California’s November 3, 2020 election than voters recorded as voting in that election? And why is most of the discrepancy driven by 116,000 vote-by-mail ballots with no apparent voter identified in VoteCal’s voting histories? Click here for a list by county.
• Why do more than 7,700 voters have TWO November 3, 2020 votes credited to their voting histories? These are two votes credited to each of 7,700 unique (non-duplicated) registration ID numbers in the state database. This indicates mass double voting, a significant programming error in the state’s registration system, or both.
• Why does California have 1.8 million more registered voters than eligible citizens and why did this overage rise 72% in the 2020 election cycle? Click here for a list by county.

Some counties have an astoundingly high number of ineligible registrants (see County list below):
Sacramento County: 36,737, Orange County: 92,014, San Diego County: 247,671, Los Angeles County: 1,138,910, even tiny Alpine County with 924 eligible citizens has 85 ineligible registrants.

• Why did California’s on-line and DMV registration systems change 33,000 foreign-born voters’ birthplaces of record to “California” or “United States”, potentially masking non-citizens unlawfully registered to vote? Similarly, why were 76,000 birthplaces changed from another U.S. state to California? Click here for a chart of birthplace changes.

The EIPCa asks “why has the number of ineligible registrants grown over time? Why by 72% in the past year? 3b) What action(s) will the Secretary’s office take to correct these ineligible registrations?”

• Between June 2017 and November 2020, EIPCa identified 93,911 registrants who show inexplicable changes of birthplaces from a foreign country or another U.S. state to “California.”
• Of these, 68% appear to have occurred using the on-line registration system and 21% using the DMV registration system.
• An additional 14,796 had birthplaces were changed from a foreign country to “United States of America.” Of these, 62% were associated with the on-line registration system and 27% with the DMV registration system.

California’s most recent election anomalies
As stunning as this is, it’s been going on in California for many years, and is only getting worse, despite efforts to expose voting irregularities, and clean up voter rolls.
Party registrations were changed right before the June 2016 Primary election, ensuring a Hillary Clinton win over challenger Bernie Sanders, in what was called electronic vote rigging, I reported in 2017. California was a crucial state for both Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, but the election was called for Clinton minutes after the polls closed, but before millions of provisional ballot votes were counted.
A 2017 study by Stanford University proved that Hillary Clinton‘s campaign pre-rigged the system to steal the nomination from Bernie Sanders. And it was never more apparent than in California where Bernie Sanders voters were likely robbed of a legitimate candidate.
Thousands of voters in the June 7, 2016 California Primary election showed up at the polls across the state to discover their political party registrations had been changed, or dropped altogether… but only after they had received official sample ballots verifying their party registration in the mail. This only could have been done within the Secretary of State’s VoteCal system.
Thousands of Republican and Democratic voters reported to the Election Integrity Project that they arrived at their designated polling stations on June 7th to find that their party affiliation had been changed. Most reported being re-registered “No Party Preference,” California’s version of “Decline to State.” Others said their registrations were dropped, or they received the wrong ballot, which in many cases prevented them from voting for President in the primary.

I'd say I'm getting tired of conspiracies being true, but I'm not. I'm tired of people not taking them seriously. That video of the KGB agent talking about a demoralized population is hitting pretty hard right now.

'Hillbilly Elegy' author J.D. Vance launches GOP Senate bid in Ohio​

MIDDLETOWN, Ohio — J.D. Vance, a venture capitalist known for “Hillbilly Elegy” — his best-selling memoir about growing up in Appalachia and the industrial Midwest — has entered Ohio's crowded Republican Senate primary.

"We need a new politics for a new generation," Vance, 36, said as he kicked off his campaign Thursday evening from a steel tubing factory here in his hometown. "The old way of doing things ain’t working."

He's sort of a basic bitch Republican, talks of being against abortion and people should be happy having babies and that sort of bullshit. He's been deleting a bunch of tweets and trying to put on a populist mask which is appealing to some in right wing media who don't do a lot of research on people. So can't help but see it as a repeat of Kobach (guy who wanted a private plane if he worked for Trump) where the guy will soak up cash from hapless donors before crashing and burning.

Southland dairy farmer features in new rural book​

maddisyn jeffares14:45, Jun 14 2021

Tim Fulton has just released his first book Kiwi Farmers’ Guide to Life that tells the stories of 25 farmers and their families celebrating rural life.
Fulton comes from a farming background in north Canterbury and has been a journalist for the past 20 years writing about farming and agribusiness.
He has also been an editor of various farming publications.
“I really enjoyed some of the stories I got to do close to home, and actually I didn’t state in the book but actually three of the couples and even in south Canterbury, the shearers where actually my extended family, and that was really special for me to interview.”

He loved the freedom of selecting a variety of people and places for the book.
“...there are some shearers in there, there is some agriculture scientists and a whole lot of people really,” Fulton said.
One of the stories featured in the book is with Winton farmer Loshni Manikam who speaks candidly about the importance of wellbeing on the farm for women and families.
“Loshni was one of the really enjoyable ones because she came at everything from a very refreshing perspective about personal growth of people and their wellbeing and I think that’s really important as we know in farming,” Fulton said.
Fulton said he really wanted to capture New Zealand farming and all its diversity.
Title: Kiwi Farmers’ Guide to Life
Author: Tim Fulton
Publisher: Bateman Books
RRP: $39.99

Below is an extract from Fulton’s book feature Winton dairy farmer Loshni Manikam who wants New Zealand farming women to thrive.​

At first, as she and husband Donald developed their farm and raised a family, Loshni’s life seemed to be dominated by mum duties and the responsibility of being a parent, wife and business owner.
She realised that while she was great at making room for others, she was losing her sense of self.
Drawing knowledge and strength from those days of “not thriving”, Loshni set up a Facebook group, Thriving Farming Women.

* Anger, guilt and optimism: young farmers' complicated relationship with climate change
* 'Take that break', advocates tell rural women

She now connects and supports about 900 women “who want to create positive changes in their lives so that they can thrive, while still being loving, supportive mums, partners, farming women and all their other roles”.
It’s about sharing experiences with a “tribe of like-minded people” – coaching, rather than counselling, she says.
“Amongst other things, therapists and counsellors can help you unpack things that happened in the past. As a coach, I don’t have those skills and that training, so I’m very mindful that if I do come across someone that needs those services, I refer them on.”
Born and raised in South Africa, Loshni met Donald Kidd in England in the ’90s, when she was backpacking the world after graduating with a law degree.
Kidd was a fourth-generation dairy farmer from Northland, while she had no farming experience.
More than 20 years later they’re equity partners and lower-order sharemilkers on a 600-cow farm near Winton, in Southland.
Their dairy expertise earned them the Southland Sharemilker of the Year title in 2007, before they progressed to the equity investment.
In 2018, Loshni was named Fonterra Dairy Woman of the Year in recognition of her work, helping other women as a coach, facilitator and consultant in agri-industry.
She has since been asked to host workshops like the Taking Time to Thrive – Without Feeling Guilty, a 19-meeting tour around the country, backed by Ministry of Health, Rural Women NZ and Rural Support Trust.
“I try to bring all of that personal and professional experience to the workshop in a way that helps women understand that it’s critically important that we start doing more for our own self-care – not just for ourselves but also for the people we love and the communities we serve. One of my core philosophies is that when a woman thrives, everyone around her benefits.”
She felt inspired at the workshops, hearing incredible life stories and receiving feedback from women who realised “they are not alone and that there’s nothing wrong with them for thinking or feeling the things they do”.

Giving women “space” is probably the critical part of the programme, she says.
“It’s a chance for women to step back from busy day-to-day lives to consider if they are doing what they need to do to thrive – and if they’re not, what are the implications for themselves, their families, their farming business and all their other roles. I have done a lot of work in the past eight years or so to figure out how I can take steps forward. Now I share my story because it resonates with so many women who have told me after the workshop that it feels like I have told the story of their lives.”
She feels expectations of farmers have grown hugely since she jumpedheadlong into New Zealand farming life with Kidd back in ’98.
“I don’t find it surprising that we have farmer wellbeing issues, that we have high suicide rates. I know that the stresses of modern life are increasing outside of farming too and that’s a completely different context. It’s like blowing air into a balloon; I worry that we keep adding more pressure and if we’re not good at finding ways to relieve that, then we are going to have balloons that pop.”
One of those insidious pressures is a kind of midlife breaking point for farming men and women – an “age-and-stage” when the family and farm seem secure and children don’t obviously need their parents as much.
It’s a vulnerable time for women, because while many farming men continue to identify as the hard-working breadwinner, the core identity for many farming women revolves around being a mum, wife and farming partner, alongside her other roles and responsibilities.
“I think that as an industry we need to support our people with trying to answer what comes after family and farming, because it’s not an easy question to answer. That’s one of the things that I love helping farming women to figure out.”
She urges women to prioritise their own wellbeing, for their own good and the sake of those around them.
That may mean taking stock of the things that really matter in life, like marriage, family relationships and giving back to people and community.
“If she does that, then she is the loving and supportive mum, partner and businessperson that she really wants to be. The key thing for me is understanding my values and how I want to live my life. And then, when opportunities come along it’s easy for me to measure them against what’s important to me. And it’s also about understanding what makes me happy.”
While Loshni’s own family has found dairying profitable, maintaining a healthy lifestyle has been paramount.
She came to thoroughly enjoy the dairy industry once she found balance in her life.
“For one thing, even though it’s quite rigid being a dairy farmer – you’ve got to milk twice a day and don’t get Christmas Day off and things like that – you’re not travelling two hours on the motorway in Auckland to get to work and then two hours back.”
She is grateful for having met some amazingly hard-working, caring people in the industry.
“I don’t think people go into farming unless they are nurturing. I think at the heart of it you have to care, like if some misfortune befalls you like a tractor or shed catching fire. Everyone around you turns up to help with a spare tractor, a couple of hours work, baking . . . they bring everything but the kitchen sink. The sense of community in the dairy industry is something that I still really enjoy.”
She senses the dairy industry’s community-minded spirit may have faded to some extent since she came to New Zealand but it’s still stronger in farming than virtually anywhere else.
“It’s maybe because farming people are the only people I’ve really known since living in New Zealand, but I feel that farming people are such a unique, special breed of people.”

I don't think I want a fat Maori wife, though. Hope that's not mandatory.

Water Crisis — China's Reckoning (Part 3)

The first 200 people get 20% off a year of Brilliant Premium: https://brilliant.org/PolymatterSources: https://pastebin.com/AyA7ndS3Twitter: https://twitter....

www.youtube.com

Polymatter has a 4 part series on problems facing China. Part 1 is aging demographics, Part 2 is 1/3rd of new homes being bought as investment properties and then never filled leading to ghost cities. But this one, Part 3 I think is the most important, precisely because it deals with Water.
To summarize the video, Bejing is experience very severe water shortages, due to a lack of rainfall and increased demand. The Chinese built a 100 Billion Yuan Canal connecting from the Yangtze in the south to rivers and outlets in the north. This hearuclean effort that only modern China, with enough manpower, engineering equipment, investment and political power could do this. The Canal however didn't do what it should do. It only increased the amount of water in the Bejing area by about a 1/3rd and wasn't enough to lower the severe shortage. This also has the added negative effect of draining water away from the Yangtze when it's at low levels already.

So the question is why? If you look at how much water costs in China, it's some of the cheapest in the world, allowing farmers in the rural areas to farm rice, to use it in manufacturing and generally use it in an irresponsible manner. So a natural way to get people to use less water would be to raise the water price, maybe not up to how bad it is in Australia but at least so the population stops wasting it. That wouldn't do though, because then suddenly farms have to pay more for water, people in Beijing who can't afford it might riot and that has a snowball effect when if you look in the Part 4 video, China is already spending alot on Internal Security measures instead of External Security in it's defense budget.

So that's the crux of the issue.
>China would rather build a few hundred kilometer long water canal, spending billions of Yuan because even raising water prices a litter would effect daily life to such extremes it would cause resentment and instability.
If you look at who advocated for the Canal project though, 5 of the 8 members sit in leadership positions of companies that would benefit.
