Activist Going on Hunger Strike

to get Nader to drop out

Jerry Rubin, 60, said he plans to consume only liquids from Saturday until Nov. 2 if Nader doesn't take a meeting with him.

Since when did foregoing salad and dessert become a hunger strike? It's like Sharpton at Vieques, on a "hunger strike" while sucking down Chunky's Hearty Stew.

And 30 days? Bobby Sands went 65 days. And he wasn't chugging PowerAdes or Boosts. He wasn't eating porridge either.

And if Rubin is on a hunger strike to get Nader out . . .

What's her cause? More Joey?

You know Gandhi is laughing his ass off about this guy.

So he will live on slimfast and ice chips for a month? Basically he is turning into a teenage girl.

He legally changed his name to Jerry Peace Activist Rubin?

BWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!

So, an activist nobody cares about is demanding a meeting with another activist nobody cares about except in election years due to his crazy-people-attracting field?

Rubin probably just wants to be mentored.

Yacht or Nyacht?
With a combined score of 49.5 on Yacht or Nyacht, I'd say this one is a "Nyacht." No Hoe Snow snap. Not bouncy. Pretty dreary. No smooth groove. You won't be able to snort cocaine out of the cleavage of a "Naval Mabel" or "Poopdeck Patty." Or even if you do, it will be half-hearted at best.
From Instapundit, a Free Beacon Fact Check:
Joe Biden, nominal president of the United States, sat down with the ladies of The View for an interview on Wednesday. "It's like having one of the Beatles at the table," co-host Sarah Haines said as the audience roared and her colleagues cackled.
Haines wasn't entirely wrong, according to a Washington Free Beacon fact check. Biden doesn't have much in common with the Beatles, but they're both half-dead, half-octogenarian relics who haven't accomplished anything of substance since the 1970s. We rate Haines's claim "mostly true."

I guess that's true if you're talking about the Beatles. But individual members of the Beatles did some decent stuff in the 80s.

To state the supremely obvious, eliminating the filibuster to codify Roe v Wade also enables a future Congress to ban all abortion nationwide.

What an absolutely terrible, shortsighted idea.

Oh but it's all right
Once you get past the pain
You'll learn to find your love again
So keep your heart open

This is a fantastic (casual) driving song, when you're actually driving a little below the speed limit because you don't really have anywhere to be.
Going forward, if we have any arguments about what is or what is not Yacht Rock, we can just consult the Yacht or Nyacht? website, which has ranked hundreds of songs according to their Yacht Quotient (YQ). I can see this website stopping arguments, fistfights, and formal duels.
In solidarity with the MSM, Rich Lowry and National Review vilified the Covington Kids as racist agitators back in 2019. Now, it’s Rich Lowry being canceled for an accidental slip of the tongue that sounded like a forbidden word. There’s a lesson here for the Polite Right, but they won’t learn it. [Buck]

You know you can't fool me
I've been loving you too long
It started so easy
You want to carry on

I'm not sure this is even Yacht Rock. This might just be very soft rock. I can't see myself sniffing cocaine from a Boat Hoe's cleavage to this song, which is the primary criterion of Yacht Rock.
But I think this song more crosses from the shallows of soft rock to the cresting majesty of Yacht Rock. This is definitely bouncy enough for Hoe Snow. Very smooth, a little folky, a little jazzy. It's got that Hoe Snow snap.
From Andycanuck: Hezballah members reporting for work today, a little bit skittish about entering the code on an electronic keypad lock
I don't know if this is real. It's certainly accurate -- no one in Hezballah is happy to be handling any kind of electronic device today.

FAA fines SpaceX $633K for acting without its permission "These fines therefore are simply because FAA management has hurt feelings because SpaceX wouldn't wait for it to twiddle its thumbs for a few more weeks. The fines also suggest that FAA management is either being pressured to hinder SpaceX's commercial operations by higher ups in the White House, or that management itself is trying to exert more power over the company, for apparently very petty reasons."

1) Individuals, on camera and audio, stating what they saw is "unconfirmed" with "no specific reports"

2) anonymous bomb threats with no arrests or suspects is "Republicans threatening Haitians."

Well fuck them, I called the hospital and they said there's no confirmed reports of specific individual Republicans making any bomb threats.
