Just checked in. About the Harry and Megan thing. It certainly fits in a projectile category.

It’s all spilling out so fast this week, there’s no keeping up with it. For Thursday night, I’m resorting to short-ping treatments, mainly so our noble readers have a place to dive in.
It’s hard to keep a straight face about the abjectly non-credible tale that will be coming out in full in a few days of a supposed near-coup by former President Trump in his final days in office. To hear the narrators and at least one participant (in quotes; General Mark Milley, USA, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff) tell it, the method of staving off the coup consisted of scurrying furtively around Washington dropping F-bombs.
There are any number of places to read the sound-bites of linguistic derring-do. Excerpts from a forthcoming book were published this week at the Washington Post. The Post put up related treatments as well; e.g., here and here. For variety, you can check out CNN, The New Yorker, and for that matter almost any mainstream media outlet of your choice. They source back to the WaPo writers’ book excerpts.
Here are a few samples (from the CNN summary): Milley spoke to friends, lawmakers and colleagues about the threat of a coup, and the Joint Chiefs chairman felt he had to be “on guard” for what might come.
“They may try, but they’re not going to f**king succeed,” Milley told his deputies, according to the authors. “You can’t do this without the military. You can’t do this without the CIA and the FBI. We’re the guys with the guns.”
Here:
Milley viewed Trump as “the classic authoritarian leader with nothing to lose,” the authors write, and he saw parallels between Adolf Hitler’s rhetoric as a victim and savior and Trump’s false claims of election fraud.
“This is a Reichstag moment,” Milley told aides, according to the book. “The gospel of the Führer.”
Here:
After the January 6 insurrection, the book says Milley held a conference call each day with Meadows and then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Leonnig and Rucker report the officials used the calls to compare notes and “collectively survey the horizon for trouble.”
“The general theme of these calls was, come hell or high water, there will be a peaceful transfer of power on January twentieth,” one senior official told the authors. “We’ve got an aircraft, our landing gear is stuck, we’ve got one engine, and we’re out of fuel. We’ve got to land this bad boy.”
The authors write that Pompeo, through a person close to him, denied making the comments attributed to him and said they were not reflective of his views.

This state has been a catastrophe for decades. I’ve watched the elections. The Republican begins with a running start, nicely leading the Democrat. The evening goes on.
Slowly, the results come in, every year with the exception of “certain” areas, areas with large, diverse populations. We are told that they require more time due to their size. Slowly but surely the Republican’s edge is whittled away. And the Democrat wins by a fairly small edge. Every. Dang. Year.
Seeing Seth rip the scab of our circus of an election nightmare is an incredible relief.
Thanks Hippy. :)
A full audit is needed of this criminality, followed by criminal prosecutions.
Have been hearing “delta variant” used right much about the “live event.”
I saw the etymologies below and thought ok delta means shaped like a triangle and variant means basically the same but different form.
Q had three drops with word triangle.
Drop 133 said triangle has three sides.
Drop 134 said One side of the triangle removed (1st time in history).
Other sides falling.
Drop 140 said Each side of the triangle controls a certain subsect of power brokers.
Etymologies
delta (n.)
c. 1200, name of the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet (equivalent to our D), which was shaped like a triangle. The name is from Phoenician daleth “tent door.” Sense of “triangular island or alluvial tract between the diverging branches of the mouth of a great river” is because Herodotus used it of the delta-shaped mouth of the Nile. It was so used in English from 1550s and applied to other river mouths, of whatever shape, by 1790. Related: Deltaic; deltification.
variant (n.)
“something substantially the same, but in different form,” 1848, from variant (adj.).
Can you imagine how much the White Hats have been through? They have my utmost admiration and thanks.
Could it be that the last of the triangle are about to meet justice?
On x22report.com they give a synopsis and provide the sauce for the claims on each vidya.

Circling back from the old thread. Thank you RN!

I got a girl, she lives on the hill
She won’t do it but her sister will when she boogie
She do the tube snake boogie
Well now, boogie, little baby
Boogie-woogie all night long
Blow your top, blow your top, blow your top!
