Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

The willow is too close to the house.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

He really is that stupid.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Come on, man.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

I really should read my own blog.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

cats rule everything collette collaboratrice

From commentor Colette Collaboratrice:

It’s not exactly a pet pic, but I thought of you and of our blogfather and his rotating tag lines when I saw this outside a shop on Haight Street in San Francisco yesterday.

***********
My email is broken, at the moment — I’m still receiving messages, but I can’t send any. Still don’t know whether it’s our provider (Verizon) or the program (Eudora)…

Apart from that, what’s on the agenda for the day?

    From the Daily Beast

    In February 2013, Move America Forward announced an ambitious fundraising goal. The charity, launched in part by one of the most prominent figures in the Tea Party movement, had adopted the 800 Marines in a battalion fighting in Afghanistan and wanted to send them all care packages.“For some troops, these care packages are the only mail they will receive all year,” the group said in one email solicitation.The charity later described the fundraising drive as a rousing success: In less than five weeks, all 800 Marines in a 1st Marine Division battalion nicknamed Geronimo were sent care packages and notes in Afghanistan, it claimed. But that couldn’t have been true. The Marines of Geronimo weren’t even in Afghanistan during Move America Forward’s fund drive. Instead, they were deployed more than 3,000 miles away, in Okinawa, Japan. –

    In the first year or so after my son’s birth I comforted myself with the reminder he wouldn’t be a baby forever and someday soon I would sleep in again. Then we got a dog. I’m an idiot.

    There’s a house near me where the people seem to have got in a good stock of Eid al-Fitri fireworks (which, by the way, were banned decades ago, but apparently these people have connections somewhere because the cops haven’t stopped them). So, every night since mid-Ramadhan and even tonight, a whole week into Shawal, we have been treated what sounds like a small-arms battle, with occasional grenade explosions, and looks like a really half-arsed pyrotechnic display.

    that’s gotta be a fairly effective scam. I’m just glad my MIL can’t use her computer anymore. My SIL got the call when at her house, fortunately she is a very suspicious person. Took me about a day after hearing about it second hand to realize it was a scam and that I didn’t actually have to drive 3 hours to fix the computer. This was over a year ago before it became widely known

    Regarding your email, it’s really likely your provider either started requiring authentication or SSL recently, and your SMTP settings aren’t valid any longer. That is almost invariably the cause of “I can receive but not send emails” when you haven’t changed anything on your end.

    @Amir Khalid: I know KL slightly but am not too familiar with the neighborhoods you mention (I do know a few excellent Chinese sea-food restaurants in Cheras). The reference I have at hand — an out-dated gazetteer — tells me Keramat is a “Malay reserve area” built where an Indian village used to be, but I’m not sure what all that actually means.

Unfortunately, the cats never know how to make that distinction.

    Eudora is an old, beloved program — it was my first email client way back in the day, and many of it’s features are still ones I wish were in the ones I use today.

    But it is OLD. From the website:

    it is Mozilla’s understanding that Qualcomm is no longer developing Eudora OSE. Furthermore, the last released version is based on an old version of Thunderbird which is no longer supported, has many bugs and performance problems, known security issues, and its community support forum no longer exists

    No matter what, I’d recommend moving to a more updated client — the Mozilla website naturally recommends Thunderbird, and it’s a good modern free client.

    If you have a car, driving to Santa Cruz, then HWY 1 north to Half Moon and then SF is nice.

    About your e mail. The Windows mail that I’ve always used is no longer a program that will work. I think it’s the 2011 version and Windows doesn’t provide it anymore. You have to use Outlook or if you have Comcast, that will work: you can always go to gmail .

    I have the same situation. I can still receive email at the mail, but can’t send from there: a message comes up saying it can’t find the POP3, imap servers.

    Outlook is pretty good although it has some kinks. But it has some nice features like highlighting.
    Comcast is terrible. It’s slow and kind of goofy.

    @srv: Crown was quite the attraction a long time ago but the beach was neglected and largely eroded away. It was restored recently and swimming is possible — but, as with all the beaches in the area, water quality varies from week to week, if not from day to day. There is also a small-ish bird sanctuary at one end now.

    I’m using Outlook to write outgoing messages and to send links.
    To answer emails that are sent to me, I have to use Comcast.

    I used to use the Windows mail to filter out all the people who want me to join (yet another) cause and/or donate money and it was easy to delete groups of irrelavant mail and just answer my personal mail and send it.

    I didn’t want all the junk on Outlook too because it would just be cluttered up with 200 emails.
    That’s why I went to Comcast which installed automatically when they set up my teevee/internet/phone etc. service.

    @schrodinger’s cat: We do have some excellent choices for more authentic versions of Mexican cuisine, but in general, when someone in this area says “Mexican” they actually mean Tex-Mex. Which I happen to be a big fan of.
    I prefer Tex-Mex over actual Mexican dishes, in general.

    I have a good friend in San Diego and he’s given me some tips on a few items. But he’s, uh, quite focused on pursuit of the feminine form so I always like to get other input when possible.

    @Corner Stone: When I’m there, which is not often these days, and if I’m there to relax, I’m in either Coronado or La Jolla — both of which I like.

    @schrodinger’s cat: Sorry, no. I don’t get up that way often at meal time. I can’t remember the name of the place I ate at last time. There’s a large Afghani community in Fremont, and there are a lot of restaurants in a small area.

    I didn’t know anyone still used Eudora. You might be better off just considering it an archive and moving to something new – Thunderbird is free. Also JohnD’s comment about settings changes – my provider did that once. Recheck their website on how to set up e-mail clients and see if something has changed, and make sure that your client matches up with what they want. Eudora may or may not be able to support the protocols needed. If you have changed your e-mail password recently, it may be that the new password didn’t get saved for both send and receive. Sometimes I need to tell it to save the password twice, once to get mail and then when I send something.

    About the Eudora and Verizon sending mail problem, see this link.

    Link is from Verizon forums, titled “problems sending email – what authentication is needed??” Post number 27 by jfadden

    The fix described worked for my parents. (The problem started on ~Aug 1 for them.) (Yes, Eudora is old.)

    @schrodinger’s cat: Whoops, horribly late to the party, but I’m around (and even have a professional connection to the Moscone Center). I’d be up for a meet-up. I’ll send you an e-mail via your blog.

    Also – eeek! I’m famous!
