Enco,

I meant broadly speaking a reflection of the electorate and more to the point of the zeitgeist. Reg had a good article on the flowering of Jew hatred and differences between far right and far left in contemporary world. Far left and far right come at it a little differently.

Jake:

She is a reflection of the electorate.

Zionism is the code word for Filthy Jew and its associations.

I don’t know how much she reflects the sentiments of her electorate. I may be wrong, but except for Austin, Texas never looked conspicuously Progressive.

Also, Galindo is running in a newly Re-Gerrymandered, Re-Jury-Rigged, District. She…[Read more]

She is a reflection of the electorate.

I remember the first time i argued with a gal about zionism. I was gobsmacked at her antipathy. None of the rational things i raised seemed to make a dent. A welcoming to progressivism…

Jake and Fellow Unbelievers:

A Sex Quack and Astrologist gives a prescription that is a turn-off and Horoscope that is howling at the Moon.

House candidate Maureen Galindo pledges to send ‘American zionists’ to internment camp
Despite a growing storm of criticism, including from members of her own party, the San Antonio Democrat insists she…[Read more]

Enco,

My Lezbrews reference was to the idea i had to counter the propaganda against Israel with a story about mythical Lezbrews of yore. Nothing to do with sexual orientation of those women.

Iron, iron that, iron giant, irony…

Jake:

One shouldn’t presume to know how they swing just because they are willing to fight.

If they can pass muster with all the training told of in the article, they deserve all the support they can get.

However, I am disturbed that Israel has this obsession with Iron. Iron Dome. Iron Swords. ‘Arad’ doesn’t sound too strong either if it…[Read more]

Reg:

All that, ‘cept The Trump Phone doesn’t exist:

Looky here. A tribute to the Lezbrews.

And they got something for globalize the intifada from the river to the pea.

Reg:

Mushrooms and blue cheese vodka are part of the MAHA formulary, especially if the blue cheese is unpasteurized. Licking the Giant Gila Monster would also be a prescribed MAHA regimen. All of these make for vivid hallucinations.

“That was nice, but it didn’t help my legs!”

Make me an omelette of those, Reg and I’ll come visit you!

I think “mushrooms…and…blue cheese vodka”…have much to answer for 🙂

Reg:

Here is what the future of MAHA could mean for healthcare, although we have also experienced it too many times in the past. Fast forward to 49:45 and watch to 54:20:

Mystery Science Theater 3000 never got real deep into riffing on religion, but when they did, they really hit home! Joel and the Bots could…[Read more]

Reg,

That all makes sense to me. Your bronto is pronto and unique. Unlike Block universe in which i am not ruling it out but i am far from convinced.

That article finally gave me a working conept about which i was puzzled. Reductionist which i always observe is being used to criticize or undermine an idea or argument and i always thought it was…[Read more]

Yes Simon but I would treat “fundamental” and “thorough” differently. A model can be thorough by including many relevant factors, but that doesn’t make all those factors fundamental.

What I’m pushing back on is the physics habit of treating “fundamental” as meaning “smallest,” “indivisible,” or “basic ingredient.” I agree that something can…[Read more]

Reg the Fronkey Farmer wrote:
What physics gets wrong about the idea of “fundamental”.

Yes, I think a model should be “thorough” as well as “fundamental”.  Some fundamental elements are not just individisible particles – they’re also structural factors, for example, that form the fabric of reality.  So, the fundamental constants of the unive…[Read more]

Reg:

Nudge theory was all about taking responsibility, but it allowed big business to look the other way. See also Book Club below.

First, a couple of definitions:

A Shareholder is someone who invests money or capital in a corporate venture and have a say in the running of the venture. The best shareholders who do well for themselves study…[Read more]

Thank you Reg!

Have a great week!!

I generally try to leave personal commentary out of the main page and just publish the linked headlines. But I am in no mood for any religious bigots or theist bullshit this week. 🙂
