Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving y'all. We have turkeys running around the neighborhood. That's what you get in the country.
I don't have a picture of the local ones, so here's one from my personal archives from the Bay Area in my apartment complex with all the murderers and rapists. Sigh. The Bay Area is a bad place.

We got snow yesterday, but then it melted within a couple hours of it stopping. Unfortunately, it got COLDER afterwards so there's black ice on many roads. As we were out visiting a friend for dinner, that meant driving home on the icy roads. I did not slip, and there was a lot of mist rising, but we got home safely. I still have decent night vision, but Dad does not.

Normally we do a public charity walk on Thanskgiving, called the Turkey Trot, however it is so cold we're not going. In a couple hours it will warm up enough for a walk. And later, we'll be cleaning up all the leaves brought down by the storm. There's quite a lot of mess.

Turkey will be roasted this afternoon. And I'll make broth from the innards. And we're making mince pie, since we had pumpkin already. Good times! Hope everybody reading is spending time with their families today. My ancestors were at the first Thanksgiving at Plymouth Colony.

Audiobook: You're Never Weird On The Internet (Almost) by Felicia Day

So I just listened to the autobiography by Felicia Day and its good. She's very nerdy and maintains that through her narrative. Home schools, internet gaming addiction, how difficult it was to force herself to write The Guild script, and the troubles with funding additional episode. She's big about retaining control of your creative efforts. I can see that. And she explained further about her position on the whole Gamer-Gate mess, and the creepy stuff that happened to her after a blog post on it. They published her home address on her twitter account. Creepy and stalkerish.

The Problem With Tolerance

I am not a fan of this "Pray For Paris" nonsense. France was attacked. I have cousins in Paris. This makes me angry. Prayer is what caused the problem. Tolerance of non-French zealots in their borders is what caused this. This isn't the first incident, and won't be the last. France's national identity is similar to America's, because we influenced each other's development as modern democracies. France wants to make everyone French. Islam wants to make everyone muslim, not French. The Muslims are allowed to deny being French and still live in France. France has, essentially, failed to convert them. If you allow an enemy, which muslims are, at your back, you must not be surprised when they stab you. And this is what they did. Islam hates all Westerners, by definition. This is why they attack our institutions. Islam is anti-civilization, and its entirely zealots. If you allow them in your community, they will eventually attack.

Prayer and Tolerance of Evil caused the attacks. Don't Pray for Paris. Urge them to expel Muslims from France, using maximum force. Terrify Islam. Because if they don't respond with force, next time it won't be a concert hall. The Muslims will set off a backpack nuke. Islam is ambitious and violent. That is its nature. They want to kill or convert everybody, and then tax them to keep the cult going. Islam is violence. They don't respect anything or anyone. Treat them with respect, as an enemy should be. and then apply violence to fix this situation. When there are no more Islamics in France, there will be no more terror attacks there. All civilized countries are going to have to come to terms with this reality. You can't negotiate with them. You have to expel them, remove them, with maximum force. If you don't, ISIS will buy Iran's nuclear weapons and nuke Rome, London, Paris, Rotterdam, New York City. This is what happens when you tolerate evil. Islam is evil. Islam with nuclear weapons is evil with greater ambitions, and terrible consequences result.

Don't Pray For Paris. Remind France they have nuclear weapons. Respond in the way that Islam understands. Islam is violence. Give them violence a hundred-fold in return.
