Updating the Blogroll...

Although I've got some people I *know* I need to link, there are others I should link but will forget to unless reminded.

If you want to be linked, please mention your blog's name and URL in the comments below.

I don't link everybody. But I just noticed, for example, that commeter Carin has a blog, but never mentioned it to me. So I definitely need to link people like her.

And, by the way: I know I have to update the links for Marcland and Dalek's Weblog. I've just not gotten around to it. I know in Marcland's case it was because he requested the change when I still didn't even have my blogroll back up yet, as I was still in the redesign phase.

Thanks, Ace. I've been missing the crazy blog traffic that you always send my way.

Oh, Ace, you're too cool ;) Thanks.

How'd you miss Professor Chaos? You've been on my blogroll since I got it ...

Ace,

You can blogroll me if you want; I don't want to seem pushy. Your call.

I'm not proud; I'd be happy to accept a link.

Posted by: Andrew on December 29, 2004 07:40 PM

I'd love a link, but you'll remain on my blogroll whether I get one or not. Cuz you make me bust a gut on a regular basis.

And of course I would post this on the one rare time my webhost takes a dump on me. Typical.

Yo Ace

You've been on my Highly Irreverent list since inception. and will stay listed, reciprocation or not. Just keep posting stuff like the PETA/fish top ten list. Side-splitting howls.

Next to getting linked to by Drudge, getting onto your blogroll would seriously make my day.

Posted by: stevesturm on December 29, 2004 09:56 PM

Please put me into consideration. I'm Conservative AND abrasive...a rare combination.

Posted by: Nickie Goomba on December 29, 2004 10:25 PM

Hey Ace -- I started a blog, but I suspect it will be of interest to maybe .0002% of your readership. Seriously.

Posted by: someone on December 30, 2004 12:16 AM

I also forgot to enter the url. Heh.

Posted by: someone on December 30, 2004 12:17 AM

Hey Ace,

I would be honored to be on your blogroll. You have an excellent blog, which I've linked to as well.

Posted by: Zelda on December 30, 2004 12:49 AM

Hell, you've linked me a couple of times. Why not?

Nerf-Coated World. Or, alternately, Matt Howell. Or, neither! Take yer pick.

Posted by: Matt on December 30, 2004 12:57 AM

Love your blog, Ace. You're first on my blogroll! (Though I must admit that's mainly because it's in alpahbetical order ;-)

Posted by: Ed Mick on December 30, 2004 01:11 AM

link and I link back-

cheers

Even though I'm going off Bolgger in the next couple of weeks and renaming my site, I'd love to be on your blogroll.

Posted by: superhawk on December 30, 2004 07:57 AM

Ace,
Please consider Cranky Neocon. If you link me, I can send literally tens of links your way on a daily basis.

Oh, and I'm funny. Damn funny.

Posted by: Gordon on December 30, 2004 09:12 AM

Hi Ace, I'd really appreciate the link, if it meets youir standards. I work hard on it.

Posted by: Bryan on December 30, 2004 09:15 AM

Ace, I'd love a spot on your blogroll. The site is Secure Liberty. You're my #3 referer (all time) already as it is and that is very much appreciated. In fact, you're one spot ahead of Instapundit!

Posted by: SteveL on December 30, 2004 09:29 AM

Heard Here is the blog and since I freely plagiarize you anyway, I though I might as well beg for a blogroll spot.

Posted by: Tom Heard on December 30, 2004 09:48 AM

Oh what the hell - I'm almost 4 weeks old today and already I have no pride left... :D

Maybe I can be graduated from your "new blogger showcase" to your regular blogroll, but then I wouldn't be all exclusive-like.

Well, I'm Carin's Blogdaddy, whatever that's worth.

Funniest thing I've read about the Virginia mess. Back when they were hustling the referendum through the assembly both Senators, Warner and Kaine, advised them to go slow and play by the rules. Louise Lucas said she respected them but didn't need advice from the "cuck chair" in the corner. The gerrymandering was overturned and Louise is heading for the big house. Edward G. Robinson voice "where's your cuck now?"

"It's f**king f**ked."
-- reportedly a genuine comment offered by a "senior Labour source"
Correction: I wrote that Labour is losing 88% (now 87%) of the seats it is "defending." I think that's wrong. The right way to say it is the seats they are contesting -- that is, they don't necessarily already hold these seats, but they have put up a candidate to run for the seat. It's still very bad but not as bad as losing 87% of the seats they already held.

🚨ED MILIBAND [a Minister in Starmer's government] SAYS KEIR STARMER WILL RESIGN AS PRIME MINISTER

He has reportedly reassured Labour MP's that Starmer will be resigning following the disastrous results tonight

It's over

"The end of the two party system in the UK" as first the Fake Conservatives and now Labour chooses political suicide rather than simply STOPPING THE INVASION
Incidentally, the only reason this didn't already happen in the US is because of the Very Bad Orange Man (who is right on 85% of all policy calls and extremely, existentially right on 15% of them)

No political party that is NOT also a doomsday religious cult would EVER choose a cataclysmic loss -- and possible extinction as a party -- to support a toxically unpopular favoritism of NON-CITIZEN ILLEGAL MIGRANTS over actual citizen voters.

Only a cult does this.

Now they've lost 84%.

Annunziata Rees-Mogg
@zatzi
If this continues Labour loses 2,148 seats tonight.

That is much worse than the worst case predictions I’ve seen.

Cataclysmic

Update: They've now lost 88% of the seats they're defending. As I mentioned earlier, I think I heard that London will not bail them out, as many of those Labour seats will probably flip to "Muslim Independent" or Green. Detroit's 5am vote will not save them.

Yup, Labour is losing 80% of its seats...

The British Patriot
@TheBritLad

🚨 BREAKING: Labour have lost 80% of all seats contested as of 2:25 AM.<
br> If this continues, Keir Starmer will be out of office next week.

Reform has surged and projected to pick up between 1700-2100 seats.

Wow, up to 1700-2100 seats. It's not incredible that this is happening. It's incredible that the Davos crowd is so absolutely determined to privilege Muslim "migrants" over the actual native population who elects them, no matter how loudly the natives scream that they want to be prioritized, that they will gladly self-extinguish as a party rather than simply representing the interests of their own voters. Astonishing.
Remember, when they call other people "cultists" -- they are the ones so imprisoned in their social reinforcement and discipline bubbles that they will choose political death rather than dare upset the Karen Enforcement Officers of their cult.
Update: Now they've lost 83% of the seats they were defending.

@DPJHodges

Reform are basically wiping Labour out in the North. It's not a defeat. It's not even a rout. Labour are simply ceasing to exist.

Nick Lowles
@lowles_nick

Tonight’s results are calamitous for Labour. Not just for Keir Starmer's leadership, but for the very future of the party

STARMERGEDDON: In early returns, Reform gains 135 seats, Labour loses 90, the Fake Conservatives lose 36 (and I didn't even know they could fall any further), the Lib Dems lose 4, and the Greens gain 6. Note that the only other party gaining seats is the Greens and they're only gaining a handful of seats.
Update: Reform now up 145, Labour down 98.
Labour projected to lose Wales -- where they've ruled for 27 years.
Fulton County Georgia just discovered 400 boxes of ballots for Labour
Update: REF +156, LAB -107, CON -45
Brutal: In four out of five council seats where Labour is defending, they've lost. 80%.
I'm sure it's not this simple, but Reform is straight taking Labour's and the "Conservatives'" seats. They've lost almost exactly what Reform gained. If understand this right (and warning, I probably don't), all of London's council seats are up for election, and Labour might lose hugely there, as their old voters abandon them for Reform, Muslim Indenpendents, and the Greens.
REF +190, LAB -134, CON -56.

Updates on the Labour collapse in council elections -- which wags are calling #Starmergeddon -- from Beege Welborne. There are about 5000 seats up for grabs, Labour is expected to lose 1,800, Reform will probably gain 1,580, up from... zero. So this would be more than that.
People claim that while Labour has adopted the Sharia Agenda to appeal to the million Muslims it allowed to migrate to the country, those voters are ditching Labour to vote for the Muslim Independent Party or the Greens. Delicious. This shadenfreude is going straight to my thighs.
Oh, and if Starmer loses about as badly as expected, Labour will toss him out of a window Braveheart style and replace him. He will announce he is resigning to spend more time with his Gay Ukrainian Male Prostitutes.

Media bias and senationalism are as old as, well, the media:

That was written by Denny O'Neill and illustrated by, get this, Frank Miller. Editor to the Stars Jim Shooter was in charge at the time.
I always thought the gag was original to the comic book, but in fact the "Threat or Menace" headline was a satirical joke about media bias and sensationalism for a long while. The Harvard Lampoon used it in a parody of Life magazine: "Flying Saucers: Threat or Menace?"
