Don’t “sane wash” the ravings of a mad man.

The Democratic Party is a big tent party. There isn’t often a plan, because the party membership has many different opinions on every subject.

Satan did lead an uprising with a third of the heavenly host. Satan must be pretty convening.

Or you know, Demiurge is a dick.

It has been said that for the outlying regions of the Roman Empire, the collapse only meant that when the unused bridge fell down, no one came to fix it. (Undoubtedly I have garbled it.)

It has also been said “We are a long way from Beijing”, which means the central government is a long way away and don’t know what we are doing and impact our lives little.

Some things will really suck. They will suck far more than I can imagine. We will still have local police and hospitals. Medical care will get worse. There may be less food in the non-agriculture states, but that will be fixed with trade or war.

Lots of people will die. Likely you and I will die.

Some states will link up to make their own countries. Canada may invite some states to join. Same with Mexico (New Mexico maybe…)

Very much a “things I do not control”.

Looking into it, it seems that perhaps it was not notable until recently. This is likely a limitation of my searches and popular understanding. Does anyone know of ancient Greek writing on the subject? (Perhaps I am too quick to discount the trained memorization of bards and storytellers of old, which I understand typically used memorization and not Total Recall?)

Funes the Memorious was written long after the camera was invented.

The Wikipedia pages on Eidetic Memory and Hyperthymesia cover different aspects, but neither cites anything older than “Funes the Memorious”. “Total Recall” is also used for the ability, but also does not appear to have a long history.

Unrelated but fun: ‘Photographic Memory’ The story of how we stored digital photographs

Given how few “christens” are Christian, she only needs to state once that she is christian. She needs to make no actual changes, attend church, read the bible, nor pray. Heaven forbid she do something like feed the hungry, help the needy, or give her wealth to improve lives for her fellow humans.

Great headline. I appreciate the total being included! (Because we criticize the bad headlines, we should also highlight the good headlines.)

Those that voted for this will never understand the pecking order. They will always think it is enough that they are not on the bottom, even if they are also drowning.

FYI, this is the same family as the article from the summer. I was uncertain as I had expected they had last been in Russian longer than a few months.

Jade Helm - We building the concentration camps.

Right.

Remember this in the future. We have the money to provide free healthcare to all Americans and a UBI.

We choose not to.

Teslas are now asking minors for nudes.

Fuck

77,302,580 people is not half of America. It is 49.8% of the folks that bothered to vote.

More usefully,

In the 2024 presidential election, 73.6% (or 174 million people) of the citizen voting-age population was registered to vote and 65.3% (or 154 million people) voted according to new voting and registration tables released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

I have been puzzling on this, and am here to leave a link to a Wikipedia article touching on the subject. Jesus in comparative mythology

I am of the opinion that not discussing these things is an analog to the Paradox of Tolerance, if not being exactly what the Paradox is about. If we don’t discuss the hatefulness, then the hateful think they are doing fine.

Attacking only causes people to “dig in”. Passive aggressive actions will make you look weak.

Being cordial while also calling out instances of hate as they occur would likely be fine. Be strong and confident, but keep corrections short and to the point (Imagine correctly a 5 year old. Understanding and care, not anger, and keep things in reality.) “That didn’t happen.”, “Why would a criminal say that?”, “Toddlers visiting basketball plays, will reduce the average height, but no one gets shorter or taller.”

Progressive talk radio does exist and came be pretty good.

It would be nice to get an updated daily list.

People just don’t notice the quiet ones. There are dozens of us.

I don’t think Amazon prioritizes efficiency, but delivery speed (after sitting on the packages for days). I often seem multiple Amazon trucks going to the same house in a day.

Maybe Governors need to deploy the National Guard to watch the “Texas” Nation Guard.

I really hope the next states to have the “Texas” National Guard deployed have a better plan than lawsuits. Maybe have all National Guard personnel reviewing unlawful orders, or learning to have conflicts so they cannot deploy, or something.
