It seems like some of Trump’s own gun nuts are turning on him.  This one was a previous Trump voter who became “disillusioned” with DJT.

I guess Vance has admitted the Haitians eating pets is a fabrication.

What a horrible fucking thing to do. Haiti is a cauldron of instability and chaos. So for Haitians who make it to USA to be hit with that BS and resultant discrimination is unconscionable. I have to assume Haitians want to assimilate and make a good life for themselves here.

I can’t imagine him standing there without flinching, waiting to take a bullet to the ear.

I don’t think that assassination attempt was real. I think they were both staged. It’s Trump’s new way to get a poll boost. “Poor me look at me, they’re trying to kill me, (sob sob)…..”

Thanks, Reg 🙂

He can blame his parents, Dick and Suki, for that. I wonder if nominative determinism was at play when they were named.

Brain Cox on Entropy and the Arrow of Time…

Yes, here is some beachfront property Trump should invest in.

Regarding the article on entropy, there is a real question whether time is really directional and yet the entire concept of entropy hangs its hat on the assumption that time is directional. Am I wrong?

Regarding Brian Cox’s collab with watchmaker IWC, I’m a big fan of mechanical (clockwork-based) watches. I always feel a little sad for someone wearing a “smart” watch.

I find it amazing that mankind can make a tiny machine you can wear on your wrist, held together by screws about the size of coffee grounds, which can keep time with an accuracy…[Read more]

Regarding rising oceans, Trump quips that rising oceans will mean more beachfront property.

No, idiot: It will shrink the landmass and thus the total shoreline in the world will decrease, not increase.

Have a great week everybody!
