After wrangling with his inner Tory, Andrew Sullivan goes all in for Kamala Harris... but it's mostly driven by an apocalyptic vision of what Trump would mean for the world. "We do not have a serious Republican candidate. We have the most shameless charlatan in American political history — and there are plenty of competitors. He is unfit in every respect to be president of the United States. To say this is not a function of “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” It is not about being upset by “mean tweets” or grotesque rhetoric. It is not the same as falling for some of the worst Resistance myths — that Trump is a longtime Soviet/Russian asset. I’ve steadfastly called out the excesses of the Resistance. They have done as much harm to liberal democracy as good. I haven’t thrown out all my conservative principles as some have. But I can also see what’s directly in front of my nose.

Trump does not merely break norms. He has broken the norm, the indispensable norm for the continuation of the republic, the norm first set by George Washington when he retired from office, the norm that changed the entire world for the better: accepting the results of an election. This is the meaning of America, and Trump despises it. I do not think this is even within his personal control. He is so genuinely psychologically warped that he has never and will never agree to the most basic requirement of public office: that you quit when you lose; and that the system is more important than any individual in it.

He is not lying when he insists that he won in 2016 and 2020 by massive landslides in the popular vote. He believes it. He believes he will win by a landslide in November, and there is no empirical evidence that could convince him otherwise. If he loses the election, he will call it a massive fraud one more time, and foment violence to protest it. We know this more certainly than we know anything about Kamala Harris. He tried to leverage mob violence to disrupt our democracy once. If that was not disqualifying, nothing is. And nothing done by his opponents or enemies can justify or mitigate it."

1970s: The F-105 and Reserve 508th Tactical Fighter Group at Hill AFB

May 21, 2020

HILL AIR FORCE BASE, Utah --

Editor's note: This feature is part of a Hill Air Force Base 80th anniversary series. These articles will feature the base’s historical innovations and achievements, and will highlight mission platforms that have been operated and supported throughout the decades.

During the 1970s, several Hill Air Force Base tenant organizations made various changes. Formerly assigned to the 452nd Tactical Airlift Wing, the Air Force Reserve 945th Military Airlift Group was reassigned to the 301st Tactical Fighter Wing on July 1, 1972. Resulting from this reassignment, the first of 18 newly assigned F-105 Thunderchief aircraft arrived at Hill AFB on September 24, 1972, for the 945th.

Shortly thereafter, on November 27, 1972, the last C-124 Globemaster assigned to the group departed Hill AFB. A few months later, the 945th inactivated. Concurrently, the AFRES constituted the 508th Tactical Fighter Group and activated the unit at Hill AFB. The new group received the F-105 aircraft which had briefly been assigned to the 945th. Three months later, AFRES inactivated the 508th on March 25, 1973, and in its place activated Detachment 508 of the 301 TFW in order to provide the wing’s organizational structure conformity with other units in the command. Subsequent requirements, however, necessitated the reactivation of the 508th Tactical Fighter Group on October 17, 1975, at which time Detachment 508, 301 TFW, inactivated.

On October 10, 1978, AFRES activated the 405th Combat Logistics Support Squadron at Hill AFB and assigned the unit to the 508 TFG. Prior to this, on October 1, 1977, the 508th lost three of its assigned squadrons: the 7th Supply Squadron, Mobile; the 7th Maintenance Squadron, Mobile; and the 5th Augmentation Squadron, Wendover Auxiliary Field.

The AFRES inactivated the 508th Tactical Fighter Group at Hill AFB on October 1, 1982, concurrently activating the 419th Tactical Fighter Wing. Despite the fact that the 419th Fighter Wing’s 466th Tactical Fighter Squadron continued to fly the F-105 until March 1984, the 508 TFG was the last unit assigned the F-105. In June 1983, the 419th TFW, assigned the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon, began retiring the F-105s it inherited from the 508th TFG upon the unit’s inactivation.

Shortly before beginning this process, the 466th TFS flew a 24-ship “diamonds on diamonds” formation with the F-105 as a salute to the aircraft’s many contributions. The F-105 flew and fought in the skies of Southeast Asia during the conflict in Vietnam. On February 25, 1984, F-105 combat veterans reunited at Hill AFB and conducted the final F-105 missing man formation.

During this ceremony they dedicated aircraft 62-4347, the F-105 with the most air time, as a monument to those who served with F-105s and especially those who gave their lives while doing so. The last F-105 (aircraft 62-8287, an F model) departed Hill AFB on March 10, 1984, for Chanute AFB, Illinois, where it was put on display.

Please, spill some tea on Al’s relationships. 😭 Someone on quora has said Diane is painting herself as the victim while we don’t know his perspective, that she is the one who never had a long term and stable relationship while her exes went on to have their own families. And I’m like… dude… Al Pacino has kids but he sure hasn’t had a stable relationship with anyone, lol.

AH HELL NO, NO BULLSHIT ABOUT DIANE LIKE THAT >:( Also incredibly mean and more than likely untrue lmao like we need to automatically take Al's side on what happened in their relationship? 👀 I mean really, it was a private relationship between two adults that started like ~50 years ago, so based on what's publicly out there, I know that...

Diane said on the Ellen show she had quite a few relationships that lasted "about 5 years". She also said no man she ever dated proposed to her, which is why she didn't end up married. I actually ended up finding out that Warren Beatty did in fact propose to Diane but she said no. I found on this article a reason why, which is Diane wanting to focus on her career, but I can't find the original source I read it on which didn't state a reason--just simply that Diane didn't want to marry him. I read that this happened during the filming of a movie they had together and as a result, Warren made Diane rehearse a scene (or something) again and again on purpose to take his frustration out on her. Again, don't know if this is true or not, just what I read!

Also, to assume that someone hasn't had stable relationships because they never married or have children is such utter bullshit.

Y'all wanna talk about unstable relationships? Let's talk about Al Pacino real quick. 😂

Al's first mentioned gf was Jill Clayburgh, an actress and I believe they got together around 1967. The broke up a short while after TFG released. Al talked about wanting to marry her and have kids in the future but what did he do? He told her he was in love with another woman and left her just like that.

We know how on and off Al was with Diane and how that one ended. What I still can't find any info on or make sense of is them breaking up in 1990, but no mentions of breakups in 1988 or 1989, but Al having a child in 1989 with someone else? Sheesh.

There was an interview Al and Marthe Keller did together around the Bobby Deerfield days. Marthe was almost describing what kind of wedding/wedding gown she would want to wear. She was saying no pressure on marriage/kids, and the interview described Al as being quiet, awkward and not saying anything. Marthe was head over heels, swooning a whole paragraph about how amazing Al was and he said nothing. All he did was smile awkwardly. They broke up later down the line of course, and Marthe I believe kept one of his mugs he drank out of.

I'd recommend reading "A Life on the Wire" for all the Al relationship tea, let me tell you that. Personally from what I've read in it, "unstable" doesn't even begin to cover it lmfao. Cut Diane some slack, y'all. 😭

[ourpickwickclub]

kinda pissed there has been absolutely no mention of Blake and TFG theme song? wtf?

I heard two things on this. Both were just reading comments on articles so nothing concrete.

One said the studio heads thought those 80s lyrics rating women’s looks with numbers were problematic (kind of dumb imo because it’s only one line and in the context it’s just supposed to be a guy being cocky). The other said that the song does play at the credits and that it is so good that it is worth staying seated to hear.

Had a jumpscare that did psychic damage to me. As I was scrolling through comic news I skimmed too quickly and thought an article said Tom King was going to write a new L.E.G.I.O.N. book.

It was neither tfg but I didn’t need that terror.

SINGAPORE — Truth about Mamimumemo Part 1

NOTE: Everything disclosed here is truthful and fact-checked by multiple sources. We will try our best to provide only factual evidence about him.

It may be updated as more information comes in.

Also note, these screenshots have been provided to us by third parties, who came to us with this evidence. Please do not harass, witch-hunt, dox, or go out of your way to harm these third parties mentally or physically. They are victims of a disgusting gross person. It could’ve been you.

We have also been informed that Mami has also had a past history of stalking their ex, and bragging about it.

We also have just been informed that he would spit on toys he’d send to his paying customers, and laugh about it.

All images have been censored in correspondence to the third parties wishes, thank you.

(Repost from Here)

================================================

Mami, or the multiple names he goes by including, but not limited to:

Den.den.boy

Kentan99

Athenaart

Magyosen

Xychen31869

Mamimumemo

Kentanxy99

poketechnic999 

XY Chen

In this Article, we will refer to him by his most known name in the /asp/ community, Mami.

In short, he sexpests, doxxes, and is a pedophile.

He is infamous in the /toy/ community, specifically in /tfg/ for doxxing clients who have purchased from him in the past, doxxing people in general, selling unreleased toys and creating his own extremely racist versions of specific toys.

Sadly, dude making them is Kenneth Tan. I know the guy. Faggot of the highest order and an asshole on top of that. He’s been kicked out of so many groups it’s like he’s trying to set a record. You’ll never be able to purchase these files as he gets all of his money from his parents and is mainly doing this project to piss people off. He sits back and laughs at people like you, calling the retarded dumbasses who can’t make things for themselves

His past life is connected to this ROBLOX, this is where the first connection of mamimumemo being Athena was made.

Not only that, but he talks about being from Singapore in his streams and in DMs.

His ‘private’ account that he’d use to talk about girls has a picture of his face, which cross-reference to /toy/ gives us this:

When asked more information about Mami, we were told this by someone who knew him from his Transformer days:

Stories from uninvolved parties of current situation, talking about Athena’s past doings:

Mami has been ostracized from his local fanclubs, and shunned from the Transformer community.

Stealing toys from factories and selling them for high prices so Youtubers can review them is illegal.

Vtuber History and Sexpesting:

We don’t know why Mami decided to start his career as a Vtuber. We do know that he did draw before ever considering Vtubing.

No idea at the moment but he did just ramp up to 10 right after all the athena posting stopped. Could be Athena is banned at the moment and a new retard is vying for the king of the autstic shit posters (lmao) or perhaps Athena is not banned and he’s found himself a new shitpost style he likes more than his usual brand of moronic posting. But I mean how many autistic retards can we possible have here?

I supposed this is what being a poorfag who can’t afford toys does to you. You have to put all the time and energy you might have dedicated to enjoying toys in to trying to ruin the fun of every one who can afford the toys you cannot.

You figured they would just put that energy into anything else to make their lives better, but nope they spend it here day in and day out being the absolute most autistic morons they can possibly be and proud of that fact.

Mami’s activity started to wind down as soon as he was gaining more public attention from the wider vtubing community. He was getting attention and commissions from high profile clients.

Pathetic guy who shitposts here and in the 3rd party general. Hates life and himself and fancied himself a 3rd party toy designer and posted a bunch over on TFW. He has a horrible personality though and blew up over there alienating everyone who might have considered his toy designs (which were bland and boring). He’s also one of the leakers here and got buttmad when his leaks were reposted them for a TFW story credit and is broke Athena entirely so he bitched about it on his twitter and now everyone knows for sure it was him.

So basically a shitty little troll desperate for attention.

His Ebay Account

Archive of the site in case he takes it down

Proof this is HIS ebay account

Sexpesting

Mami sexpests his clients, past ones or current ones. He’d always ask ‘do you have a boyfriend?’ ‘Are you single? He also regularly asks nudes from his clients, and begs when they tell him no.

[bhodi-anjo-daishin]

So most articles, when addressing the debate and what each candidate should do. Most say Harris must “fill in the blanks and talk policy.” They also say that what TFG needs to do is act normal. So policy for Harris and not policy for Trump, just don’t be a butthole. They absolutely do not care if Trump has no policy at all.

[bearfoottruck]

As if we didn't have enough reason to hate Donald Trump, here's an article I read from The New York Times via Yahoo with various quotes TFG used regarding his 2024 campaign:

New York Times article on “What if Trump wins?”

Speaking of Trump's racist immigration policies, the New York Times has published a helpful but incomplete list of key agenda items in a second Trump term (which I do no believe will happen). The list is too antiseptic and omits some obvious issues—withdrawing from the Paris climate accords and cutting Social Security and Medicare, but it is a handy reference for those seeking to educate other about Trump's dark plans.

The article is here and is accessible to all: If Trump Wins.  

As much as I appreciate the effort that went into the article, it repeats a mistake that most media is committing: It assumes that Trump will be able to accomplish everything he claims he will do. That is just not true. For example, he claims he will “impound” funds appropriated by Congress if he doesn’t like the program or recipient of the funds. But Congress has passed a law that prohibits unilateral impoundment. Indeed, Trump's unilateral withholding of funds appropriated for the defense of Ukraine was the cause of his first impeachment.

Moreover, as the Times noted in a separate article, the “resistance” to a possible second Trump terms has already begun. Civil liberty and pro-democracy organizations are already planning their litigation strategy against illegal actions by Trump. See New York Times, The Resistance to a New Trump Administration Has Already Started. This article is accessible to all.

Remember before Donald Trump became president, he took a newspaper article demanding that the Central Park five would be sentenced to death for their crimes despite the fact that they cannot be executed because they shouldn’t be imprisoned in the first place because they were innocent the whole time

Now over thirty years later one of the five is elected as a New York City council member and tfg has four indictments against him including one in New York

One thing about the tables they will turn

Saturday Morning Coffee

Good morning!

I hope everyone is having a splendid morning. I began composing this post while my coffee was brewing. My cup is now in hand. That means the old noggin will wake up so I can finish. ☕️

Waxy

This morning, I was shaken to learn Heather B. Hamilton (formerly Heather Armstrong) aka Dooce is no longer with us. I learned the news from a post to her Instagram, confirmed by several friends after and then the Associated Press, announcing the tragic news that she died yesterday at the age of 47.

I think this caught most of us off guard. Dooce was one of the folks I followed in my early blogging days and was very influential to blogs in general. She wasn’t just a Mommy blogger.

RIP Heather. 🧡

Vox

Donald Trump has just been found liable for sexual battery against journalist E. Jean Carroll.

Good for E. Jean Carroll. I’m glad she made a large withdrawal from the bank of Trump. The man clearly doesn’t respect women, he doesn’t respect anything, except maybe Putin.

I hope more women come forward for their day in court now. This man deserves to be shamed at every turn so normal people see what a disgusting human being he is.

Cars are so darned expensive. I have no idea how anyone can afford a new one. Kim and I have purchased one new car in our 35 year marriage and she took it back a week later because she didn’t like it. The car was $15,000.00 out the door.

Good thing she took it back. It was a Saturn. 😆

WPE WebKit Blog

In the previous post in this series, we explained that WPE is a WebKit port optimized for embedded devices. In this post, we’ll dive into a more technical overview of the different components of WPE, WebKit, and how they all fit together.

I’m a sucker for articles about porting software and making it run on many platforms. This piece is a 30,000 foot view of WPE and a short read if you like this kind of stuff. Plus it has a nice little diagram. Always a plus in my book. 🖼️

Jezebel

A Texas man, 22, was arrested on Wednesday evening for fatally shooting his 26-year-old girlfriend for traveling to Colorado to get an abortion, the Dallas Morning News reported on Friday.

Texas is full of absolutely insane people packing guns on their hip.

Look, a woman’s body is hers and hers alone. Sure you could ask, even beg, her not to get an abortion if you’re the father of the child but ultimately it’s her body, her choice.

Your choice is to stay and support her decision or walk away.

This man chose to take her life and destroy his. Poor choice dude.

Republican politicians love to say we have a mental health crisis that causes these senseless crimes. Why is Texas so full of mentally unstable people with guns? Texas needs better leadership or we should boot it out of our Union. 🤬

Ned Batchelder

At work, we work in GitHub pull requests that get merged to the main branch. We also have twice-yearly community release branches, and a small fraction of the main-branch changes need to be copied onto the current release branch.

It’s surprising how powerful git is. Ned has put together a great little guide for how one might cherry pick their commits.

There are so many ways to manage code changes and branches. This is one of many and worth your time to read if you’re a developer of software.

Oh, and it has beautiful diagrams to illustrate what he’s talking about. 👨‍🍳💋

Rolling Stone

CNN Is Hosting a Town Hall for a Guy Who Tried to Get Me Killed

This piece is by Officer Michael Fanone. Mr. Fanone was one of the Capitol Police Officers tasked with protecting the Capitol on January 6th and had a front row view of the violence of that day.

He’s right, CNN shouldn’t provide a stage for a domestic terrorist. TFG should be tossed in prison and disqualified from holding public office, but no, we’re gonna let him run for President again know full well he’ll destroy our democracy if he wins.

Officer Fanone is lucky to be alive. 🍀

Pixelfed is the Fediverse version of Instagram. Like Mastodon it doesn’t have a corporate master and anyone can host their own server.

I’m not sure why Instagram would see it as a threat, but here we are. 😂

The Next Web

The UK bank analysed its internal customer fraud data between 2021 and 2022. It found that the Meta-owned sites and apps account for a whopping 80% of all scam cases within its three biggest fraud categories: purchase, impersonation, and investment fraud.

I have a feeling Mark Zuckerberg was thrilled when Space Karen took over Twitter because it’s been such a mess nobody is talking about how terrible Facebook is.

crnković

How I accidentally breached a nonexistent database and found every private key in a ‘state-of-the-art’ encrypted messenger.

Buyer beware. Companies can make claims about how awesome their technology is and it could be janky. This is a prime example. It looks like the company is lying to hide their flaws or maybe they don’t know what they’re doing?

WBOI

Students at Carroll High School announced last week they would be putting on an independent production of the play canceled by administration earlier this year.

These kids had their school play shut down because it included a non-binary character and a gay couple.

This is the world we live in and we can choose to love people for who they are, not shame them.

This will, of course, go down in history as a head scratcher in future generations. They’ll wonder why we were so stupid to be so afraid.

Apple Press Release

CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA Apple today unveiled Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad.

I’ll be interested to know how many Audio and Video Professionals make use of these new apps. Hopefully we will see some great reviews from folks who actually do this kind of work.

I love their pricing. Yearly for $49.00 US or $4.99 per month US. It’s great because you can subscribe for a month and try it out. If it works for you great! You can subscribe for a year. If not you’ve lost $4.99. Not bad.

I’ve decided if I ever get around to writing my next app I will be using this pricing model. It should allow for constant updates throughout the year and no need to worry about batching up a bunch of big features for that big one time new version sale.

NNPP protest in Abuja brazen affront on democracy – Taraba Group

More groups have continued to condemn recent protests by members of the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP, Taraba State chapter, at the national headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Abuja. One such recent condemnations is coming from a pro-democracy group, Taraba First Group, TFG, which described the protest as a “brazen affront on democracy” On Monday, Chieftains of the NNPP from Taraba, stormed the premises of INEC in Abuja, demanding a review of the results of the just concluded governorship election in the state. The group is also seeking the cancellation of the governorship election in Taraba. But the Taraba First Group, TFG, insists the electorates are prepared to defend their votes. TFG in a statement made available to newsmen in Jalingo by its Coordinator, Inusa Aliyu, said INEC must not allow any anti-people development with devastating outcomes. The group said the protest in Abuja is fake and a desperate attempt to upturn the people’s will. ”Why didn’t they carry out the protest in Jalingo, instead they went to Abuja.?’ “Any attempt to touch the people’s wish shall not only be roundly condemned but it shall be vehemently resisted. “Taraba State had a very transparent election with a clear winner emerging with a large margin if anything, everyone has been expecting congratulatory messages from Professor Sani Yahaya of the NNPP”. Claiming that the protesters are not from Taraba State, the group said, ”We are amused by this desperation on the part of national NNPP, as a matter of fact, we even doubt if this was sponsored by NNPP Taraba because they know the truth.” While calling on INEC to remain steadfast, the TFG also asked the NNPP to follow the laid down procedures by approaching an election petition tribunal.

I’ve read several articles saying that DeSantis is considering running in next year’s election and it’s honestly terrifying he scares me more than TFG

God he’s the fucking worst.
