In the parlance of Trump the shithole nation of Haiti has had American involvement in the assasination of their president. It may be that it is a purely Haitian attack for a coup but we have learned that the fingerprints of Gen.Huckelberry Flynn and Steven Miller could be discovered without surprise.
Also in the parlance of Trump is "Hoax, witch hunt, dangerous radical leftist democrats, the system is rigged&frigged, persecution of Republicans, Silicon Valley Tyrants, left wing cancel culture, the critical race theory maniacs and I don't see why russia would be involved".

20 years ago my issues were climate, pandemic, bio war, nuclear accidents and new lifeforms and extinctions, for which I was deemed a troll. The next 20 years will be more of the same but at an accelerated rate. Cats and dogs will continue to be popular on BS along with goverment malfeasence. It doesn't take a psychic, but it doesn't hurt.

Hi, Mom! It was over 100F out on the Snake River Plain today, and I have not idea what it was out in the Arco Desert. I'm glad I wasn't working outside or at the Idaho National Laboratory!

Someone: "It's 103 out there, but thank goodness it's a dry heat." Me: "It's still 103."

srs IF people are not guided/educated between the ages of 10 to 21 playing catch up to think will be a losing battle and then we can still lose some to cults of all kinds along the way. Once the damage is done one can pretend to see things from their perspective and slowly throw monkey wrenchs into their belief system and have them argue themselves out of their worst beliefs. It works but only partially.
In religion its called the forgiveness thing :*?

People with the app will yell into their phone and we will add and blend their voices to be blasted into the stadium with six foot speakers.

Even though I'd miss MOM, sometimes it feels like the whole Internet needs to be turned off for a few days to get peoples attention. Getting them to think, that would be the next step and I haven't figured that one out. I managed to raise a couple of people who know how to think - but how to transfer that skill to billions around the globe. Even just millions in North America would be pretty darned good.

Six months ago...
THE BLOODS WERE DRESSED IN RED as they battled against the intentionally isolated police dressed in blue as if they were the Crips. A single black face was as rare is an Audi R8 in the parking lot of Nick's diner. The Bloods bloodied the Police with anything they could swing but there were other tactical war gear such as chemical weapons, strobe lights, body armor and electric cattle prods. No one knows how many ghost guns were in the capitol but it is so very odd that the insurrection attempt was done without a shot being fired in anger by the bloods. Its almost like they had agreed upon rules of engagement. Were the rules ever in writing, email or social media post?
Or were they only whispered or sung

Questions? I like it when I purchase something and the clerk says, "Any questions?" I usually respond with something like "Why is the war? Why is there hunger in a world of plenty?" I'm told that's not the kind of questions they can answer, but they are good questions.

When I'm asked if I found everything I wanted I usually respond with, "I never find everything I want." Things like Peace and Sanity are difficult to find even outside a store.

A month ago I claimed we have a fundamental understanding as to the construction of the great ancient stone structures but no one was contentious enough to scream BS!
As we know the devil is in the details

There are villains to modern archeology and we know who they are.

I came across 'Nigel Guy' who is one of the most affectionate sarcastic speakers I have ever heard...While making no claims but posing good questions, ladies and gentlemen I present

where's the audience?

There were several conundrums I was unaware of.

My neighbor, Floyd, took this portrait of the mosquito which was carrying him off. Poor Floyd! His body was found later near the summit of Scout Mountain, as dry of blood as a fossil. He leaves two little brats and a very, very wealthy widow.

The lightening bugs are sending signals, via tiny pulses of light, if any of you care to come sit in the yard watching to interpret the meaning. So far they're telling me "Watch out for the mosquitoes."

"Robot" comes from the Czech word "Robota" (meaning "forced labor") and was created by Karl Capek in his 1920 play Rossum's Universal Robots.

It's an interesting play and you should read it. Better yet, recite is out loud or stage it. After all, drama is meant to be staged.

Ebbie lives in Juneau and is good friend of KT Fanning. Our weather wasn't bad at all today except that only about six drops of water fell from the sky. We had lunch and dinner on the veranda and it was quite pleasant. It would have been nicer if I hadn't lost my keys to the PO box and the house.
