Have a great week and have a good 420 day tomorrow….:-)

Sadly, sizable chunks of Podcast-istan will be either be celebrating 4/20 for a reason other than herbal commestibles or worse they will be lounging in indifference.

Without breaking Godwin’s Law: “You know who else…?”

Environment: Opioids and other drugs accumulating in freshwater fish.

Another unintended consequence of the Global “War On (Some) Drugs.”

When substances are made illegal, dealers and users have strong incentive to dispose of the substances if they are about to get caught. And not much incentive to care about how and where the substances…[Read more]

Every dot is a galaxy. The map spans 11 billion years of cosmic history. It also includes 20+ million stars in our own galaxy. By comparing galaxy positions across time, scientists can track how expansion changed. Early DESI data hints that dark energy might not be constant. That’s huge because current physics assumes it is and so the standard m…[Read more]

Thanks Strega! on Friday I went to see several works by William Blake, one of my favorite creative artists. One of his works is “Thou wast Perfect till inquiry was found in Thee” c. 1805. Reference  is “The book of Ezekiel” which depicts Satan in his glorious state, before his fall. The orb and scepter server to emphasize Satan’s power and regal…[Read more]

Thanks, Reg!  Loved last weeks poem – too many replies under that to comment, so I saved my appreciation for today.

Have a great week and have a good 420 day tomorrow….:-)

Bonjour mon Pelican. I should have taken French and German and Russian. Language came pretty easily to me.

The rate things are going with Multipolarism, those languages, plus Arabic, Parsi, Brazilian Portuguese, Korean, and Mandarin Chinese may be de rigeur languages.

Enco dropped an anchor. Never hit bottom is my guess.

Made me think…

Made me think how our zeitgeist has robbed the masses of empathy. Obviously lefties are utterly fucked in their misdirection of compassion and empathy. Same is true of other ideologues.…[Read more]

PopeBeanie:

That would be nice, for sure. Hopefully he won’t set her up for a fall when he needs another diversion.

It might not have been Trump who actually made the decision to nominate her but perhaps a handler, according to this article:

Fellow Unbelievers:

Trump may have accidentally done something right!

He has named Erica Schwartz as nominee for Director of The Center for Disease Control and Prevention!

Her record speaks for itself. Don’t get lockjaw beholding it. Your face might freeze that way:

Reg, PopeBeanie and Jake:

This story should prove concerning to all of us:

Russia threatens to strike Israel-based drone production firm

How Ukraine goes, so goes Israel, and how Israel goes, so goes Europe. It’s all of a single piece.

Jake:

All of this indeed correct. Alas, Trump has his own unique mutation of brain rot and stink and he is not a man of ideas capable of properly destroying either Marxist Leftism or Islamism or Palestinianism. He thinks it all can be dealt with by a “deal.”

Trump’s Strait of Hormuz “deal” is a perfect example of how ridiculous and…[Read more]

The brain rot and decay of lefty-think and stink is greater than simply supporting morally repulsive ideology. Like parasites that anesthetize their hosts to alter their brains to serve their own purpose so it is with Islamists and lefties. How do rational humans approach and defeat the march of folly?

Gotta defeat the shit out of Islamic…[Read more]

“Which country was selected last week by the United Nations Economic and Social Council to serve on the organization’s Program and Coordination Committee, the body that shapes UN policy on women’s rights, human rights, counterterrorism, and disarmament?

Presuming all this is happening in a cave,

Here is something to make the chorus rave:

Ask if the shadows produced the chips

And ask the shadows to shoot from the hip.

When forthcoming chips don’t come to be.

Ask the chorus to spill the tea on your tea.

“Oh no—you can’t know that at all!

No mortal mind can stand so tall.

You can’t just say ‘there are no gods,’

That’s arrogance in thinking clods.”

I sip my tea. “I never claimed

A truth so final, neatly framed.

I said I’m not convinced—so far—

No deity has raised the bar.”

“But wai…[Read more]

I just bought a book titled Poisoned Ivies. I know the antecedents and the influences of the lefty scum in their Jew hatred but i want to know the mechanics of how they’ve infected our universities and general zeitgeist. Hopefully this books gives some of that story.

Meanwhile imagine being this woman and waiting to be executed. And the…[Read more]
