Monday Overnight Thread (11/25/19)
“I was most motivated by, essentially, anger that Yale — which is a place that I call home — is still invested in Puerto Rican debt and fossil fuels, which is antithetical to what I believe in." Yale sophomore Sam A. Gallen
“She sort of seems to be filling a pretty strange lane. Is there a part of the party that hates the party?” “It’s a little hard to figure out what itch she’s trying to scratch in the Democratic Party right now.” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.)
As much as the admirals – who really ought to have a bit more humility in light of the Navy’s recent demonstrated inability to perform its basic task of sailing ships without crashing them into other ships – might not approve of Trump, approving of him is not their job. While in the civilian government worker force there appears to be a Trump Exception™ to the powers of the presidency, there cannot be one within the military. This is an unprecedented breach of military discipline that must be swiftly, mercilessly and publicly crushed, here and now. Kurt Schlichter
“If it wasn't for our cash, Ilhan Omar would be just another Somali refugee in America collecting welfare and serving tables on weekends,” Kuwaiti-born Alan Bender The ONT hates to break it to you, but Hawthorne, CA and a closed track isn't the real world. Why not test that Tesla truck in cold weather towing snowmobiles say in Montana? About an hour or so after Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed an absurd, futuristic, brutalist electric pickup called Cybertruck to the world, I pulled myself up into its passenger seat. A Tesla employee then took me and three others for a short joy ride down a temporarily closed-off road that lines one side of SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne, California. While we are on the Elon Musk Cybertruck, Will 2,000 orders be 2,000 deliveries? Time will tell. Tesla shares rose Monday in early trading after CEO Elon Musk claimed over the weekend that the company has seen 200,000 preorders for the Cybertruck following a disastrous public demonstration in which the vehicle’s windows shattered before a live audience. But unlike previous Tesla preorders, the Cybertruck preorder only requires a refundable $100 deposit, leading to questions about how valid the preorder numbers actually are.
Do they make girls like this anymore? I'm not so sure. Quite the trio of sisters. Three teenage girls living in the Netherlands during World War II spent their evenings talking to German soldiers, extracting information from them and then luring them into the woods where they would shoot them.
The eight-hour workday started its life as a socialist dream. The Welsh textile mill owner and social reformer Robert Owens is credited as the first person to articulate it, by calling for “eight hours labor, eight hours recreation, and eight hours rest” for workers in the early 19th century. This was much better than the 12- or 14-hour days factory workers, including children, were expected to put in at the time. Over the next 100 years or so, labor unions in the US pushed for and won adoption of the eight-hour standard in various industries. Henry Ford brought the idea further into the mainstream in 1926 by mandating a five-day, 40-hour workweek in his company’s factories. In 1940, Congress officially limited the American workweek to 40 hours. CHRISTCHURCH: Prince Charles warned Friday that time is running out to address the impact of climate change as he prepares to visit one of the Pacific island nations most-affected by global warming.
PG&E Corp. says it has found suspicious monetary claims by victims of California’s wildfires, including one from a man who says a 500-pound (227-kilogram) emerald worth $280 million was destroyed at his home a year ago in the most destructive and deadliest wildfire in state history.
What a country!
A TV network in the UK has banned the word “uppity” after a single viewer complained that the term was racist when used to describe Meghan Markle. Another reason to celebrate our Declaration of Independence from them.
In an effort to be more environmentally responsible, LEGO have said they aim to stop manufacturing bricks made of plastic resin and are considering other options, which could include hemp.
This week in 1938, massive forest fires were burning up movie stars homes in California – and Britain was hit by 108 MPH winds which killed more than a dozen people. The Coast Guard was rescuing climate refugees who fled into the ocean to escape the flames
The world’s richest person was one of eight inductees into the International Air & Space Hall of Fame — honored for his space company Blue Origin, which this summer detailed plans for a lunar lander called Blue Moon.

Earlier today we learned of the passing of Moron rickl. F*ck cancer. Rickl was a regular contributor to The ONT and The Ace of Spades Pet Thread. He was a big fan of our space program, Bob Dylan and Toys For Tots. So let us remember our friend with some Dylan tunes. And maybe think of rickl by purchasing an extra toy or two for the Toys For Tots program.
At about 2 a.m. on Friday, a man driving across the Courtney Campbell Causeway revved his engine and tried to bait a fellow motorist into racing him.
