For those interested in watching bits and pieces of all the work required to move that Locomotive that derailed last week:

yes it’s facebook, and it’s from a bin company of all places.
Neat. Now it makes sense when they said traffic was only blocked for three hours, they had to remove the grain cars from a level crossing further back. It’s a bit of work getting that thing back on track!
“Yes, we are a literal garbage removal company. Canada’s news system is so messed up right now, Saskatchewan’s capital city voted our Garbage Company’s social media for Best Online News against the government funded CBC, and Bell Media owned CTV.”

Migrant sets a sleeping woman on fire on a New York subway car. Woman dies. Here’s how the media saw it.

Hours after the woman died, here’s how the Democrat Governor of New York responds.

Cameras. Cameras do zero to stop crime.
Who is this cop who watched while a woman burned to death?

AS usual, the dems results are somewhat mixed.

Under Mussolini, prisoners were put to forced labour in Mediterranean plant compounds.
Not intending to sound like a Grinch about this, but about that song “Merry Merry…” It’s pretty obvious what that gang is being Merry about, so why won’t they include it in the song? Mind you… I didn’t watch the whole clip, because I recognized it for what it was, and tbh… not one of the best CHRISTMAS songs I’ve heard. Actually, it’s closer to the bottom as one of the worst songs I’ve heard than it is to the top, and I have over 40 GB of REAL Christmas music in my library.
IMO the very worst Christmas song is Paul McCartney’s “Wonderful Christmastime”.
Agreed. Pure shyte.
“Agreed. Pure shyte.”
The Pogues did one that more closely aligns with my personal feelings about Christmas:

Thanks alot. Now I have that damn thing stuck in my head.
I feel your pain; I’ve suffered from the same affliction.
Maybe not the best example of a good Christmas song, but at least McCartney called it for what it is.
Have a Wonderful Christmas Time, everyone. I’m going to go off line for the next couple of days. See you on the flip side.
As a long time retail worker who has to listen to the crap on repeat for two solid months- they all suck. I hope Mariah rots in hell with the guy who wrote

Back in the mid 80’s I installed most of the RF comm’s equipment on the 1200 Series Light Icebreakers, starting with the Martha L. Black.
At the time there was a draft diagram of making these nuclear powered. The draft diagram showed a nuclear generator on a towed barge with a power take off setup.
Did sea trials on most of them, was impressed with the ships. But then, I was a land-lubber so what did I know at the time.
CTV: The Brutal Palestinian Winter……
“Winter is hitting Gaza and many Palestinians have little protection from the cold”

+8 or 9C?
https://x.com/ChrisMa55228605/status/1871050523627110573
But… but… but…… Global Warming!
How is it so blouddy cold in the middle east with all this man-made climate change happening all over the world?

Huh. I would have thought that the layer of fat which most of the older ones seem to possess would have protected them.
Battery fires on planes occur once a week:

I can hardly wait for the electric planes.
“I can hardly wait for the electric planes.”
We built one here in Vancouver (a seaplane for Harbour Air). It flew a couple of test flights, but ultimately proved to be useless for the back-and-forth operation required with scheduled flights.
(to the surprise of no one…)
“And only two fatalities yesterday.”

Hey hey hey there was a byelection in Lethbridge and it didn’t go very well for the UCP.
https://calgaryherald.com/opinion/columnists/braid-big-win-nenshi-ndp-leadership-lethbridge-west-byelection
This was while the Uni was on break and while I’m sure that some students voted in advance, I doubt it was that many of them. Smith is failing to blunt Nenshi and I think she could totally lose to him. She sucks anyway. Did you hear that she’s out to ban open pit mining? And put the kibosh to liquor sales in stores probably because it upset UCP powerbrokers with interests in liquor distribution?
If this happened in Canada the person who turned them in would have been jailed for a hate crime.

“Flashback: In 2013, Hillary Clinton gave a ringing endorsement of Save the Children as she accepted an award from the organization at their first benefit gala in New York City.
Fast forward to this year, the “charity” is under investigation for child sex trafficking.”

“Robert F. Kennedy Jr: “In 1989… all these autoimmune diseases suddenly appeared.”
“The CDC thought it may be the vaccine schedule… so they looked at one vaccine, which is the hepatitis B vaccine. They looked at kids who had gotten it in the first 30 days, and then they looked at… kids who got it later or didn’t get it at all, and they compared these two groups.”
“Among the kids who got it in the first 30 days, there was… a relative risk of 11.35 [for a subsequent autism diagnosis]. If you have a relative risk of two, causation is presumed… The link between smoking a pack of cigarettes a day for 20 years and getting lung cancer is a relative risk of 10. This was 11.35.”
“So they knew what it was, and then they had an emergency meeting that they called… and they had all of the big panjandrums from the vaccine industry, from the pharmaceutical industry… from NIH, CDC, FDA, the WHO, the European Medicines Agency, and they all got together for two days to talk about this study.”
“Somebody made a transcript of it, and that transcript was given to me… The second day they spent talking about how to hide it from the American public, and I published these things… I took a lot of heat at that point.””
