Florida explains very slowly, with pictures the difference between riots and protests
There will be quiz after.

For my family.
Conspiracy theories, it’s what’s for dinner.

The strangest attack on Jordan Peterson yet.
Hail Lobster
Update: There is now Hail Lobster merchandise available. 🦞
I can think of all sorts of places where I’d like to put the stickers. (BTW- proceeds go to charity.)
The MLB “Participation” Trophy
They came up with a perfect plan to show all the right people how morally superior they are.
And their opinion on voter I.D. is rock solid!
Things you won’t see on TSN
“Man, I think most white people and black people are great people,” Barkley said. “I really believe that in my heart. But I think our system is set up where our politicians, whether they are Republicans or Democrats, are designed to make us not like each other so they can keep their grasp of money and power. They divide and conquer.

Confession, I love watching sports highlight shows with a coffee in the morning. But the amount of woke B.S. sermonizing that’s been injected into them and professional sports in general is ridiculous.
Lomborg vs Climate Cult
From The Australian
I have personally been on the receiving end of this climate alarmism enforcement for years. Last week, I was scheduled to give a public lecture at Duke University in the US when a group of climate-politicised professors – some who write for the UN Climate Panel – publicly asked Duke to cancel my appearance.
The political forces looking to spend the climate trillions and the academia segment supplying the fear want to scrub the climate debate of anything but the scariest scenarios. They want an unwavering allegiance to vigorous spending on climate policy, no matter its effectiveness.
They insist on treating this issue as a moral binary choice instead of a realistic balancing of costs and effectiveness which would allow for our many other challenges to be heard as well.
Certainly, the professors at Duke didn’t want anyone to hear dissenting facts.
Read the rest.
Here it is on Fox hopefully not paywalled.
Here’s the lecture they wanted canceled.
Protecting the “Vulnerable”
So how’d we do?
From CBC
Canada has the worst record for COVID-19 deaths in long-term care homes compared with other wealthy countries, according to a new report released on Tuesday by the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI).
The study found that the proportion of deaths in nursing homes represented 69 per cent of Canada’s overall COVID-19 deaths, which is significantly higher than the international average of 41 per cent.
In Canada, between March 2020 and February 2021, more than 80,000 residents and staff members of long-term care homes were infected with the coronavirus. Outbreaks occurred 2,500 care homes, resulting in the deaths of 14,000 residents, according to the report.
There’s lots more.
Good job everyone you all deserve a bonus !
Worst Case Scenarios only, please.
This commentary’s findings are not all that surprising to anyone who has seen the headlines about Covid in the Mainstream Media over the past year.
“In June, CNN served up a particularly flagrant example of Covid scaremongering: an article titled “Healthy teenager who took precautions died suddenly of Covid-19.”
The many who skimmed the headline received an anecdotal infusion of fearful misinformation. The minority who made it to the tenth paragraph would finally learn that doctors treating the purportedly “healthy” yet visibly obese teen found he had Type 1 diabetes with a blood sugar level 10 times the norm.
Two months earlier, the Centers for Disease Control announced that about 90% of those hospitalized with the virus had one or more underlying conditions. Among the most common were obesity (48%) and diabetes (28%). Rather than using this teen’s grim story to enlighten the public about who is at greatest risk, CNN aggressively pushed a perception that nobody is safe.”
“When predicted surges don’t happen, the media gives little attention to the happy news that their alarms proved false. Instead, they’re apparently hard at work drafting warnings about whatever’s next on the calendar.”
Paging Social Media Fact Checkers
There’s a tweet you missed!

I’m shocked, Shocked!
There Goes The Narrative
The gunman responsible for a mass shooting at a Colorado grocery store on Monday has been identified as 21-year-old Ahmad Alissa.
Alissa is now in custody and has been charged with 10 counts of murder. At 2.40pm, he opened fire on King Soopers grocery store in Boulder, killing ten people.
He was taken into at 3.28pm and was transported to the hospital to be treated for injuries. He is now in a stable condition and has been charged but his motive remains unknown.
Reportedly grabbed from his now deleted Facebook page;

Who are you going to believe? Your moral and intellectual superiors or your own lying eyes?

They really don’t know.
Social media fact checkers hit hardest.
From the article
“It never struck me that six feet was particularly sensical in the context of mitigation,” said Dr. Ashish Jha, dean of the Brown University School of Public Health. “I wish the C.D.C. would just come out and say this is not a major issue.”
The origin of the six-foot distancing recommendation is something of a mystery. “It’s almost like it was pulled out of thin air,” said Linsey Marr, an expert on viral transmission at Virginia Tech University.
“One of the really important data points that has been missing is a direct head-to-head comparison of places that had implemented three feet of distance versus six feet of distance,” said Dr. Elissa Perkins, the director of emergency medicine infectious disease management at Boston University School of Medicine.
It really took the Gray Lady this long to start asking simple questions?

Red Pill vs Blue Pill
In the Matrix movie the hero is given a choice. Take the red pill and see the world for what it is. Take the blue pill and remain blissfully unaware of what’s happening and comfortable in the false reality around you.
Here’s a red pill that’s floating around today.
Here’s Maestre with the blue pill response.
And here Michael Malice points out that’s exactly what’s going on.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali on Rogan
The woke mob has tried to cancel this lady for daring to agree with J.K. Rowling about gender. The interview starts a little slow as she’s a bit nervous and her English isn’t always the best but quickly becomes gripping as she gets into her life’s story.
From her escaping an arranged Marriage, transitioning into Western Culture, to Islam, to Covid, to what’s going on in France and all over Europe now. It’s a good listen. 👍
An Incestuous Threesome: The Media, Democrats, and Big Tech
Laurie Segall is a 35 year old woman who refers to herself as a “journalist”. She worked for a decade at CNN, founded dotdotdotmedia.com in December 2019, and now provides segments for CBS’s 60 Minutes.
Carefully listen to the questions posed by Segall when she interviewed the mother of the January 6th “Shaman”. Carefully read her support for the employees of Facebook who want to squelch the free speech of millions of Americans. Carefully observe her support for Biden’s victory. Carefully watch her demonization of anyone who dares disagree with the official Democrat narrative. And last, but not least, read how she pushed the false & discredited “Russian interference” narrative.
Segall is entitled to have any political views she wishes but any notion that she is an independent, neutral journalist “just reporting the facts” simply doesn’t pass the smell test. How is she much different than Democrat press secretary propagandist, Jen Psaki? Both clearly get paid by the same people who insist that only one narrative, one belief system is allowed in America today.
Laurie Segall undoubtedly sleeps well at night because she has built a successful career that pleases her political masters. But consistently belittling and marginalizing the views of others always leads to very bad things for those not aligned with the powerful.
Any News On Yesterday’s Qanon Militia Assault On The Capitol?
Usefulness, Outlived
The New York Times issued a correction on Sunday…
…after it was revealed that the Capitol police officer who they reported had been killed by supporters of former President Donald Trump after being bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher actually died of a different cause. […]
The paper used anonymous sources to substantiate their claim. The article was later cited by a variety of mainstream media outlets without questioning the reporting of the paper. His death was even brought up by Democrats during Trump’s impeachment trial in the Senate.
This wasn’t new information. Even CNN had fessed up over a week ago.
