The Place to be is now Datechguyblog.blog

Posted: December 6, 2021 by datechguy in Uncategorized

Ok This is getting weird

finally had enough with my provider Purchased a couple of small plans on wordpress set up a new primary blog at Datechguyblog.blog started sending out blast emails to dapeople to say that’s where I’d be, and then cancelled my plan here.

I then got a form email that it would be stopped in about 48 hours.

That was a week ago.

I have absolutely no idea what’s going on but here is what I suspect.

I suspect that the successor to my old provider who bought the company from him set things up to run automatically and basically planed to tweak if necessary.

I think something happened to him, maybe COVID maybe something else but I think he’s out of the picture, either due to illness, death or something else and I don’t know when or if he or anyone else will be back.

And now the automated system will keep running. The customers whose stuff is still in play and working properly will keep paying and be deposited into his account and his own expenses will keep being autodetected from said account.

In theory that means that I can still post here, I’ve had no luck doing so for a full week but I decided to give it a shot when one of my Mag seven writers posted here and so here I am. However as I’ve cancelled I don’t want to be using the site as it might be considered doing so under false pretenses.

I don’t know how long this host will be up but if you’re coming here might I suggest you bookmark our new primary site datechguyblog.blog That’s where all our new posts will be going.

That is actually the same site as our old backup blog which was datechguy.wordpress.com which redirects now to http://datechguyblog.blog

With that as our primary site I’ve had to set up a new backup, that is located at Datechguyblog.org

That will be our primary backup site although I’m thinking of using it as the primary site for Dynasty Baseball league stuff.

But anyways if you’re here and seeing this head over to datechguyblog.blog . We already imported all the old post from here over there so it’s should be fine.

Eventually datechguyblog.com will redirect there once I figure out what’s going on.

Sarah Silverman and Debra Messing Channel Opus the Penguin on “Nun Beating”

Posted: December 5, 2021 by datechguy in Uncategorized

Many years ago in the comic strip “Bloom County” they had a running gag about “Penguin Lust” which went viral in tea shirts mugs etc. There was a particular four panel dayly strip that came to mind that I can’t seem to find.

In Panel one Opus is shown on the phone and you hear the Donahue show ask “Is the caller there?”

In Panel two and three Opus goes on about Penguin Lust and says conslusively that anyone who doesn’t support it is just a prude.

In the final Panel you hear the voice from the phone say: “Great, but our topic is ‘Nun Beating’.” and Opus answers with a shocked look on his face: “Well good God man, I can’t support that!”

And that brings us to Messing and Silverman.

Both of these celebs are reliable liberals, both of them have been happy to go along with what passes for facts on MSNBC, CNN etc, etc for many years and even as they got crazier their faith never waivered.

But a few weeks ago the MSM went too far for Messing when they kept calling the Waukesha Massacre (where an anti-trump anti-white career criminal ran down old ladies and children killing six) an accident:

Notice that she even used the term MSM, to describe media. Man if Rush Limbaugh was still alive he would have had a heart attack from the shock.

And now just under two weeks later the left media went over the line for Sarah Silverman too in an attack on the left/media’s 2nd favorite target Ron DeSantis:

Now while I think it’s quaint that Silverman thinks Joy Reid cares about the truth the point is that the MSM has been for a while narrowing it’s appeal to the point where it is to some degree a fringe product and has they go farther left more and more people pm tje ;eft will find either specific actions or or their general behavior so beyond the pale that they will like Opus on Nun beating declare: “Well good God man I can’t support that!”

It’s progress but I’m old enough to remember when deploring massacres and reporting facts by the media would have been considered a given.

Stacy Abrams channels Monty Python #unexpectedly

Many years ago Monty Python did a sketch concerning the Piranha Brothers which had the following exchange concerning weather nor not Dinsdale Piranha was nailing peoples heads to the floor:

This came immediately to mind when I heard about Stacy Abrams on Rachel Maddow:

The big difference in the Python sketch and Abrams is in the skit when the interviewer says: “But the police have film of Dinsdale actually nailing your head to the floor” Stig admits that the case. Actual film of Abrams doing this has not dissuaded her Lets go to the film:

I suspect that unlike Mr. O’Tracy she will not be backtracking on her new claim. After all her whole claim to fame is based on this assertion.

Unexpectedly of course

If you want to hear the full python sketch here it is via their Album: Another Monty Python Record

Cuomo Discarded, Smart but Bad, Baker bye bye, And you’re Little Roe too, and Harris isn’t going anywhere under the fedora

I think those on the right who are celebrating the fall of the House of Cuomo both in NY & at CNN as a victory for us. I disagree, it’s not so much a victory as it is the embodiment of a basic truth of the left which is this: If you have power to aid and abet their cause of the left you will be protected by them & their media, academic and entertainment allies, but once you no longer have that power your usefulness is at an end and said protection is gone.

Cuomo’s fall, while satisfying simply means that they are no longer useful to the cause and thus are no longer guaranteed the protection or deference that the left’s institutions once provided. In fact the only protection they have is whatever knowledge they have of others on the left who have done as bad as them or worse.

Last month I was at lunch with my brothers who are both much more conservative than me (I’m practically the liberal of the group) and the subject of both Fauci & Pelosi came up.

While they despise them both with a passion they also noted that they were both very smart in the sense that while their actions have been detrimental to the nation they successfully used said actions to gain personal power, wealth and security.

These actions might be unethical, dishonest and dishonorable even to the point of being evil but given the end result for themselves were certainly not stupid, except of course in a theological sense.

Speaking of falls Charlie Baker AND Karen Politio have decided to call it quits not seeking a 3rd term as governor and Lt. Gov of Massachusetts.

There have been ups and downs. On the down side the pair are horrible on social issues, particularly abortion and their opposition to President Trump is why the left likes him as much as they do in the state. On the plus side Baker is an able and competent administrator and I suspect with some cause the reason while Massachusetts in general and Fitchburg in particular did not go the way of Kenosha or Minneapolis when BLM came calling was due to his quiet actions.

A lot of conservatives will not be sorry their gone, at least not until a completely woke Democrat gets the job and does their best to turn the state into California.

There is word that the Democrats will go all in on abortion for the midterms as the potential for SCOTUS reversing Roe seems good after oral arguments.

While I think it’s not wise to 2nd guess the court, particularly any court run by old yellowstain Justice Roberts it’s a most logical move on their part.

Of course all of this was inevitable because the future belong to those who show up and spending generation killing off your potential voters is not a long term plan for success.

Finally for the past month there has been a lot of speculation on dumping Kamala Harris.

I’m not buying any of it. Harris is in an elected not an appointed position and unless you have actual impeachable offenses and the willingness of the house and senate to remove her she’s not going anywhere. All this talk is just talk.

And seriously why would she resign? What is the actual gain for her? It’s not like everyone doesn’t already know how she got to where she is and frankly I don’t that there is anything hidden in her past that is more corrupt than what the Biden’s are openly doing.
