KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: High Noon at the Delta Variant Panic Porn Corral. “As Republicans look ahead to the 2022 midterm elections, it’s important that they realize that how they react to this lunatic overreach and overreaction from the Democrats may do more than anything to determine their success or failure next year. This isn’t time to draw a line in the sand, it’s time to push back so hard that the other side never gets near where the line would have been.”

I’M EXPECTING AN EARTH-SHATTERING KABOOM: SpaceX installs 29 engines on giant Super Heavy Mars rocket.

Super Heavy will initially sport 29 Raptors, and future versions will have 32 of the engines, Musk has said. Starship’s upper stage, a 165-foot-tall (50 meters) spacecraft called Starship, will be powered by six additional Raptors.

Three-engine Starship prototypes have flown multiple times, on test flights that reached a maximum altitude of 6.2 miles (10 kilometers). In May, a vehicle known as SN15 (“Serial No. 15”) became the first to ace this high-altitude hop, surviving its touchdown intact. (Several of SN15’s predecessors did well until the very end, failing to stick the landing.)

SN15’s success cleared the way for the coming orbital flight, which will be the first liftoff of a Super Heavy vehicle. A fully stacked Starship, consisting of a Super Heavy known as Booster 4 and the SN20 upper-stage prototype, will launch from South Texas.

The only question is when, and the EPA seems to be dragging its feet.

D*MN IT, BEE!  LEAKED: Biden’s 8-Part Plan To Improve His Falling Poll Numbers.

Also sending Kamala and Doctor Fauci into the sun might give him a five point bounce. At least. I mean it won’t last, but it will help for a whole week. You know what, he could also launch Obama into the sun. Hilary into the sun. Nancy Pelosi into the sun….

I’m seeing the beginnings of a viable road to popularity.

MARK JUDGE: The left pathologizes everything it touches, except for a few sacred cows and fetishized victim groups.

In 2018 leftist websites like Vox and Slate used the term “homosociality” to criticize me and my high school friends. The term comes from the late writer Eve Sedgwick. In her 1985 book Between Men: English Literature and Male Homosocial Desire, Sedgwick describes homosociality as “the strong but not necessarily sexual affinities men have for other men.”

In other words, male bonding. Guys like to hang out with each other. Such activity these days is, of course, suspicious. Writing about homosociality for the far-left Vox during the height of the Kavanaugh madness, Tara Isabella Burton observed that when men bond, they are “terrified that this might be interpreted as homosexuality.” Guys are “desperate to prove their heterosexuality but trapped in a culture that does not allow them to engage emotionally or authentically with one another.”

As a result, we use women as “conduits,” or “safe outlets,” to express “our desire for one another.” This inevitably involves the “ritualized sexual humiliation” of women.

What does all this mean in English? It means that guys sometimes bond with each other by commiserating about how difficult women can be to figure out. This sometimes involves making fun of women, just as women make fun of men. This has been going on for thousands of years. One journalist who wrote about me and Brett found a girl who knew us in high school. “That class was really tight,” she observed about the Georgetown Prep class of 1983. “They were a really close group of guys. and I think, by and large, they were a really nice group of guys.”

Then the kicker: “They did have sort of a Marines mentality, a brothers-in-arms kind of thing.”

Strong bonds among men must be very dangerous to the left, given how hard it has worked to prevent them.

THE FEAR MONGERING CAN’T STAND UP TO AN ACTUAL EXAMINATION:  Fisking WuFlu “News”.

ARE THEY RINOS OR PAID CHINESE AGENTS? Wake Up, RINOs!

Because at this point I think we have to assume the second.

I REGRET TO INFORM YOU THAT KIPLING WAS RIGHT:  The Cake Is A Lie.

Limps up to explain once again: If you don’t work, you die.

THAT’S BRILLIANT: RUB THEIR NOSES IN THEIR OWN DOINGS:  Woo-hoo! There’s now another way to push back against mask mandates.

If you can manage to have a rolled up newspaper and smack them with it, it’s even more fun. And maybe they’ll learn. (But probably not, since they’re not as smart as your average puppy.)

AMA STANDS FOR “AGAINST MEDICAL ADVICE”:  Science: AMA Urges End To Gender ID On Birth Certificates.

Convince me otherwise.

Okay, I’d be willing to believe it stands for Animated Models of Asininity, but…. truly it doesn’t fit as well.

As with all the institutions taken over by the leftist plague: disband it, salt the ground.
