Crank fights - now that's entertainment

Two beauts have broken out.

In one corner of the antivax ring we have Karen Kingston, Pfizer “whistleblower” who accuses mRNA vaccine “inventor” Robert Malone of being part of a CIA plot to assassinate her. While denying it on Substack, Malone invokes a sinister conspiracy… against himself.

"As some of you may know, I write about fifth generation warfare from the point of view of someone who has been constantly subjected to it for about three years. Day in and day out. Five, ten times a day. Coordinated waves of attacks, some clearly coming from corporate media cooperating with the US Government and Pharma, others from the fevered imaginations of a wide variety of individual actors with a wide variety of motivations, and some coming from coordinated cyberstalker teams of bots and trolls – which the Epoch Times has documented are at least partially paid for and facilitated by the Foundation for the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.”

Heavy stuff.

Meanwhile, Project Veritas has experienced mass firings of staff in the the wake of the departure of head James O’Keefe, who’s now under investigation in Westchester County. Accusations are flying, including a claim that “disgruntled” employees are behind anti- O’Keefe leaks.*

*Jackmannii’s First Law of Whistleblowing says that when an organization under fire or its representatives label aggrieved workers as “disgruntled”, it’s likely that their claims are valid.

Well, it would be the heights of weirdness if it were the gruntled employees leaking things.

The grunts are disgruntled? You’d be unhappy too. No one wants their gruntling interfered with! Also. The Epoch Times? There’s a reliable source for information on conspiracies, all right, though not quite the way he think.

Hmm. Is the “Foundation for the CDCP” a fake group that’s trading on a name similar to the official government CDCP? Or does this mean there is an organization called simply the “Foundation” and the real CDCP is using them as a deniable frontman for their nefarious government schemes against Malone and all humanity?

Enquiring minds want to know what sort of BS is circulating in these idjits’ heads.

I’ve always wondered why so many people are disgruntled, but no one ever seems to be gruntled.

(One of my unfinished novels features members of a band named the Gruntles.)

Darn few people are caught aware either.

And when’s the last time you were plussed by a new development?

That seems a sequitur to my prior post. :grin:

And has that made you thoroughly combobulated?

Scratch and deep-massage a cocker spaniel around the ears, and you’ll see a very gruntled creature.

If you decant wine from a bottle into a decanter, do you then cant the wine into a glass? It being a bit after 5pm here this question has taken on a new urgency. My combobulation and gruntlement depends upon an answer.

I would venture an answer, but I lack specific expertise and I might have to recant.

If they’re disgruntled are they even grunts anymore? The gruntling has been reversed, which should have removed their status as grunts.

[Grunts approvingly for this thread] :slight_smile:

You cant.

If you do, you will spill some, so the procedure is not advised. Latin “canthus” refers to the corner or lip of a vessel (with “decanting” believed to refer to “pouring from the corner or rim”, presumably to avoid dispensing sediment), so “canting” wine into a glass would logically be pouring it onto the rim, resulting in part of it splashing outward.

Mind you, when sufficient wine has been consumed, a state in which one cant-pour wine might result.

Oh, you’re no fun anymore!

Works for me, too.

How come houses don’t have salt cellars anymore?

So many people being salty on the internet keeps the salt in circulation and prevents people from hoarding it, so there’s no need anymore.
