Re: trump off the CO ballot

It really isn't important stuff. it's a show of wealthy and powerful people behaving badly and getting paid for it. while there's nations in turmoil. daytime tv soap opera starring the president. has 'nothing' written all over it. great expense, foregone conclusion why did the dems fold so quickly? ...

Re: Headlines that signal that the story will be misleading and/or stupid

race is such an arbitrary, superficial trait to garner such emotional attention. in it's early days, it likely meant more as per differences in people from different places and degrees of modernity. as per social castes, there seems to be little to no racism towards wealthy and famous blacks among e...

Re: Weather

america is getting its ass handed to it lately.
climate change could be real after all.

(another tornado warning for us today and maybe the rest of the week. so much lightning! kablamo! dropping nitrogen from the air, making intense greenery.)

Re: trump off the CO ballot

if they were reasonable, they would have ran a different candidate from the start. Trump's fans don't seem to care how bad he looks. Other players aren't allowed. what a shitty show. the trials seem like pointless distraction. (it'd be interesting if one of them suddenly died) can't imagine the deba...

Oh, okay, I will assume you are not a zombie. Now a question: Was the thoughtful reply to me that you just posted not a physical effect? Again, levels. I'm not physically affecting my neurotransmitters when I reply to you, I'm physically affecting my computer. you're physically moving electrons whe...

Re: Planet America

normality has left the arena. in the U.S., 1 in 6 people are over 65. in 1920, it was less than 1 in 20. https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2023/05/2020-census-united-states-older-population-grew.html to me, this implies a relative shortage of young folk, of the sort that might work as a server....

Re: Reasons Humans Are Doomed

the evidence for anything is suspect. i have to wonder what evidence of that which you trust, negates my proposition? as mentioned, i'm seeing the flow of esoteric physics heading in my direction. or, the flip side. it's having to stretch its parameters, constantly, but lately, it's exploding. consc...
