Simon, oh.

So predictable what would happen in Afghanistan after USA withdrew.

The episode that i linked was not my intention. She interviews primarily Muslims/former Muslims from various nations that tell their story as it relates to Islam. The bigots are the ones who conjure narratives about good guys/bad guys based on their identity.

Allowing Islam to remain off limits to criticism is a deplorable and unforgivable…[Read more]

Simon, please don’t swallow the lefty koolaid. Islam is a gigantic and vile cult that dehumanizes and causes untold suffering. It is not something fundamentally ok that is highjacked by some baddies. Here i have linked a podcast series given by a lovely woman who grew up in Islam and is an apostate who escaped a marriage to an Muslim terrorist.…[Read more]

Strega that is a great description of pi.

I read a book about synesthesia. It is an interesting attribute. I can well imagine most people who have it see it as a gift. I was only jabbing free willers.

If you have synesthesia in color association or otherwise and you are unhappy about that simply exercise your free will to eliminate the weirdness.

The pervasiveness of the Islamic agenda in our institutions of higher learning…cough, cough…is shocking even to a cynic. At least this one…

And even as i have for a long time thought people can be programmed with any beliefs i used to think it required early indoctrination. Nope..

Not sure whether a fervent progressive or Trumpist is more ardent. Man oh man they despise and dehumanize the other side. Both certain of their moral high ground and how intractably stupid the other side…

Simon, outwardly and perhaps superficially it makes sense the distinction between universalism and parochialism. What is it that drives an individual to be more associated with the right or left?

What strikes me is the implicit assumption of free will. I am sure economics is a driver of one’s views. Twain said show me where a man gets his corn…[Read more]

Yeah it is hard to avoid snickering at those morons. Jihadis? Sure if they were born into Muslim families in an Islamic nation. Are they essentially any different from the progressives?

What strikes me over and over is how stupid it is to credit identity politics. The far left is despicable in its creation and perpetuation of antisemitism. Funny…[Read more]

Strega, clever, but is it unknown rather than chance?

I’d be happy to pay you tuesday for a hamburger today. In the meantime i would be obliged to bum a banana or two.

Yes the article about AI was sophomoric.

Yes, i have no bananas. I have no bananas today.
