I watched Maher’s commentary about his visit to the White House. I was surprised by it but will decide once I catch the full show later, including the Overtime section with Steve Bannon.

I get that Maher is all about cross partisan communication and dialogue. Have you ever talked with a hardcore MAGA? You may as w…[Read more]

I have pretty much ditched all the MAGA supporters from my world. Feels good.

That is possible, although Religious and Crunchy people, both Left and Right, have messed up the word by calling perfectly natural things in the Natural Universe “unnatural”, e.g. “unnatural food” or “unnatural acts.”

John Oliver enlightened me on the trans athlete situation.

I feel bad for one of my favorite bloggers who never talks trans issues. So I now really think trans were weaponized by the right.

WHAT IS IT WITH TRUMP AND GOLF?

There has to be some sort of flaw in the homo sapiens brain when it comes to picking leaders. Every once in a while, people get lucky, but for the most part we have been and still are, ruled by the biggest assholes.

Just wondering as the US economy grinds to a crawl, if environmentalists will declare The Mango Mussolini an eco-friendly president, LOL. He doesn’t understand why drivers in Tokyo or Paris don’t want to buy a Chevy Silverado.

To many it seems the term “supernatural” presupposes a spiritual realm actually exists. It is a meaningless word. The prefix “super” is typical ape-brain bias. I will use the term “subnatural”, because all of these religious fantasies are certainly below reality in terms of worth.

However, I still have many questions: If we assume a single Natural Universe with nothing before it or beyond it, with all energy, all matter, all space, all time, wouldn’t this mean there can be no “balloon,” no “surface,” no “outside,” no force to expand space “inside” the “balloon?”

Those mystery science characters have more sense than most of us apparently. A buddy says he is down a quarter million already. I got mostly out of the stock market when the pumpkin head was elected.

Ah…but the leopards are just chowing on faces.

The tariff thing might be a way to gain control of taxation from congress for king tRump. Add tariffs as a tax, cause recession so billionares can buy up stocks, then be the hero calling for sweeping income tax reductions, stock market bounces back. Rich get richer.

Yeah, Pope…

It is dismal, so many people available for Trump to purchase. However, the grass roots rumblings have begun. When the recession hits, Trump is gonna need extra strength Depends ™.

The way I see it…in brief… (and very simplistically) is that human intelligence is a product of evolution. We started off with basic pattern recognition and cognitive functions that all evolved over time. Intelligence evolved and we began to “store” information. If we saw another person attacked by a lion, we did not make the same error. We refl…

Reg, Is it just me or is AI art deliberately formulaic and creepy? All the AI visual art that I’ve seen looks like art in The Watchtower or a H.R. Giger painting! That work above looks like a panel from Jack Chick if he did illusrated nursery stories like he did his religious tracts. YEEECH!

Oh yeah…creepy as fuck b…[Read more]

How exciting. During his third term we can parade our “Jesus missiles” across DC and round up all the pesky godless atheists and gays. We will shut down Ford and Chevy so we can all drive “Teslurs”.

Our brave spiritual leader:

Truely dumber than a box of hammers.

I had chicken once. Tastes like possum.

The concept of “government free” free market is so cute. The drive for any company is always to monopolize, crush start-ups, control pricing and optimize profit over any and all social, environmental, or human welfare concerns. As an engineering manager with a 20 million annual budget working on a 250-million-dollar project; I was high enough to…[Read more]
