Subject: RE: MOAB's Daughter (of all BS) part 3 From: Donuel Date: 21 Apr 25 - 08:30 PM I have a math engineering problem that seems unsolvable. How can an object sustain 5,000 G's yet create no sonic boom at speeds in excess of 6,000 mph and have no obvious display of propulsion? Data has clocked similar objects that travel at 12,000 mph at altitude yet at sea level, speed is not impeded by the water. |

Subject: RE we doan need no edjukashun From: Donuel Date: 02 Apr 25 - 12:05 PM Trump was famous for his gold toilet. Now, as King, he wants education reduced to below his level. Universities are relatively recent institutions of the last 4 hundred years. Before that, there were monasteries, and in Roman times and earlier, there were the esoterics who spoke to each other about things that would only get them in trouble with the authorities. Esoteric philosophers didn't speak with the public but in esoteric ways with each other, which could ensure their own security. Trump wants education run by the wife of pro wrestling, which gives you a good idea of what he thinks of education for the masses. Isaac Newton got a BA from Trinity College in natural philosophy, which passed for science or physics today. Later, he became part of Cambridge University. In America, some Universities are bowing to Trump as they lose funding and research. WTF, where are their esoteric cohones? |

Subject: RE: MOAB's Daughter (of all BS) part 3 From: Donuel Date: 02 Apr 25 - 07:49 AM To speak in the most basic way, Trumpism is designed to domesticate people so that the king can rule them. This domestication is like that of dogs and horses, but with humans, what interferes is the personal aspiration of status and prestige. Therefore, the King bestows status and prestige on those most loyal to the King. Once all the King's men are given a sphere of power, prestige, and status, the stage is set for a path to domesticate the masses. If the domestication process is too harsh, there will be dissent or rebellion. If there is fairness and empathy for the masses, the King may succeed. Trump's personality disorder is creating a harshness that will in the final chapter, make him willing to trade his kingdom for a Tesla. "A Tesla, a Tesla, my kingdom for a Tesla, to get the hell out of here". |

Subject: RE: MOAB's Daughter (of all BS) part 3 From: MaJoC the Filk Date: 27 Mar 25 - 01:37 PM > [The atomic bomb] could well have been put in the > hands of Germany, but America beat them to the punch. From what I've read, one of the reasons the Nazis failed to get a working Bomb was that the limited amount of fissionable material available was split between multiple groups, each of which was tasked separately with building a Bomb. Happily for the Allies, no one German group had enough uranium for a sustained chain reaction to take place. As for beating them to the punch: By the time the Allies had a couple of working Bombs to hand, Germany had surrendered. So they used them anyway, partly to find out what happened, but mainly as demonstration atrocities.* Somehow I doubt that the Russians have ever forgiven the West for that. * ObReference: Isaac Asimov, "The Finger of God", collected in The Sun Shines Bright. |
Subject: RE: MOAB's Daughter (of all BS) part 3 From: Donuel Date: 27 Mar 25 - 12:33 PM The innovation, discoveries, and scientific breakthroughs in WWII culminated in the creation of the atomic bomb. It could well have been put in the hands of Germany, but America beat them to the punch. An equally great innovation during the time of Trump would have far-reaching repercussions. While reverse engineering a crashed UAP, a breakthrough in the realm of what would serve as a time reset could be deemed time travel. In the hands of Trump and his minions an assigning Judge Carrol to his case may have taken many attempts. So would many other scenarios that resemble blind luck in favor of the Donald going back any number of years. Some people would call the haphazard treatment of the time stream to be amateur at best. Others would call it supreme foolishness. Here we are at the near completion of unlikely events that advanced ignorance to an unheard of towering incompetance beyond the clouds. It only seems that we have arrived here by a sequence of natural events when in truth indiscriminate do-overs are actually responsible. The unlikely has undergone a normalization that can not be undone or corrected without finding this time like machine that is more hidden in time than the holy grail or arc of the covenate. |

No, don't go down into the basement...but like Jamie Lee, you went down the stairs to the landing, waited 4 years, and went down again. Here you are in the dark with darker characters who have spent years planning everything they want to do to you. Your own moral ineptitude forgave every vile act these characters did, but they have no forgiveness for you. America is like a sink hole collapsing into the empty pocket of an oil field sucked dry. Fire is the impending disaster below, global warming is the fire above. No more saving each separate disaster at a cost of billions. Save and divide that money that was wasted to rebuild all those hell half acres, and share it between billionaires who represent the evolved human whose natural habitat is the resort. The lost rainforest, beaches, trees, and extinction event will grow as they will along with deserts, poverty, and starvation. Wars promise to share the spoils, but that too, is a lie. What does it matter, slow death is usually followed by rebirth after millions of years. |

Privatize all the biggest endeavors of government to billionaires like the auction that Putin conducted when he came to power? Control all media? Remove all medal of honor veterans from DOD records unless they are lily white? Allow all the elderly, veterans, and disabled children to be free of any safety net of SS, medicare and food? Hand over the strategic forces of the Pentagon to Elon Musk? Wishing is different from having. I think the conservative plan now is not popular among conservatives and is anathema to libs. |

Subject: RE: MOAB's Daughter (of all BS) part 3 From: Donuel Date: 18 Mar 25 - 12:56 PM "I seldom read any of Don’s meaningless, meandering nonsense" Instead you rely on Steve Shaw's 10 year opinion. I am not a martyr but am all American from the Ozarks to my first rodeo in Colorado when I was 7. High school and college was in NY and then Boston and DC. With a stepdad who taught Constitutional law I picked up a thing or two. More than half his family were killed in the Holocaust. Mom was an artist, real estate agent,anything she needed to be like an electrician, master gardener, bee keeper and antiquity restorer. So that's my influence having lived farm life, suburbs, and urban life. I've studied science all my life but my only scholarships came from music. i avoided military and CIA service, not wanting to serve death to anyone. The great mysteries seem to involve having to go into the impossible to gain insight so I have retained my open-minded curiosity. Its been said 'for every person of insight there is an equal and opposite person without it'. If anyone can present evidence of lying about my facts, present it. As for nonsense there is no humor or joke without a touch of nonsense. Thats me, but who is Eiesly? |
