  1. Sorry Cat Ladies, cats are a problem also. They both eat farting prey animals. And all those farts are warming the planet. So, fewer things eating farting animals = fewer farting animals = fewer farts = cooler planet = nirvana existence. Fido and Mr. Bigglesworth will be endangered in a perfect climate world https://apnews.com/article/climate-choices-impact-decisions-recycling-flying-meat-a85ef43fc63c666e16f29e8ca1e43beb
  2. The Clinton Foundation was exactly a gofundme. They simply cut out the internet middleman.
  3. Timely Babylon Bee headline. Unfortunately, that one is behind the paywall. Here's the link if you'd like to try: https://babylonbee.com/headline/H689a926fb6ad8
  4. DEI Math, DIE. Let us take the numbers out of math. Then the outcomes will be . . . still different but not so numerically starkly different that the results are prima facie scientific evidence of differences in cognitive abilities. It's just (kind of) science. https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2025/08/19/billionaires_backing_woke_math_doesnt_add_up_amid_dei_rollback_1129311.html?mc_cid=fd4883f60e&mc_eid=ac81c0c239
  5. “To date, more than 20 Nobel Prize winners have had papers retracted” The politicization of the university. Agenda and narrative driven "education". Add in the natural tendency of left-leaning people to the academic life vs. doing and accomplishing real things. Mix in government grants that often have a specific goal/outcome in mind when the studies are funded. Is anyone surprised that "science" and "scientists" are losing their credibility? 20+ Nobel Laureates' papers retracted?!? Amazing. And, sadly, not so amazing. It is a bit of a long read. https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2025/08/13/fraud_hunters_sniffing_out_bogus_science_1128482.html?mc_cid=3f20ec5f19&mc_eid=ac81c0c239
  6. Did you see how the straight white conservative christian men mind-controlled the man they interviewed into stating fascist and racist things? SWCCMs are the biggest threat to America and to the world. Too bad this fine gentlemen has been co-opted by their mind-penetrating gamma rays instilling their sensibilities.
  7. This is a very significant statement. The virus was not a very big deal for 99% of the population and a little bit of preventative ivermectin and hydroxochloquine would have had things under control by the end of summer 2020 . The covid disaster was about 1% virus-caused and 99% manmade. And Trump was a significant part of that manmade portion. Warp speed, allowing the federal government to shut down, keeping Fauci, paying hospitals to find covid everywhere, printing money and sending it to everyone rather than just opening up like every pandemic lesson ever learned stated a society should do. Biden did everything worse, of course. But Trump screwed the pooch the fastest and the firstest and should not ever get a pass on that.
  8. So, no responsible parenting leads to no ability to get or keep a job - where showing up is not negotiable. So, does poverty lead to the inability to find your way to school or does absenteeism lead to poverty? Poverty is not the cause. It is the result.
  9. Poverty is often a product of crime. Address the crime issues whether it is big city or rural and poverty rates will drop. FIFY. You were very close, though. Good try.
  10. I am always amazed at how very very fortunate people are who celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary. Just right place at the right time - for 60 straight years! Where does anyone get off being so lucky? Same for hard working people who have above average intellect, resilience, character, tolerance for risk, etc. Just lucky. And all of the other people who were in the same place at the same time - just bad luck. I had a computer in 1992. Bezos was just luckier than I was. Otherwise, one turn of the roulette wheel and we trade places. "There but for the grace of God" helps me deal with child leukemia. But career or relationship or other adult lifetime outcomes? Almost never luck.
  11. This must be a consequence of actions in 1619 and those 125 cars (and their owners) deserved it. The poor oppressed peeps were just trying to buy bread for their starving children anyway and those 125 oppressors did not give away enough money to provide bologna sandwiches. Elections have consequences.
  12. I find the discussion of the use of hyperbole much more interesting than the poll - which is unanswerable. It is the same as asking, "is fiction just lying?" Of course all fiction is lying in the strictest sense of the word. Aesop's fables are all lies. Whether the writer and reader agree ahead of time to allow the lying does not negate the fact that it is lying. Telling your 90 year old mother she looks great is hyperbole and lying unless you add .". . . compared to all the dead 90 year olds (very weird wording in retrospect) and how you looked the day you got out of surgery and compared to how I expected you to look today". All of that "truth" is not helpful but required to say to be the most perfectly honest person. A much more interesting question is when does hyperbole destroy your own credibility? Now, on the Rep/Dem take by AI - I found it interesting although I think AI is not counting the leftie hyperbolic tendency to call anyone who disagrees with them Hitler, Nazis, Fascists, Phobics, Ists, etc. This is hyperbole. Does it help make the lefties' point and change the behavior of the person they are hyperbolicly describing? No. It simply demonizes, entrenches positions, and is a lie when used for this purpose. My take is that hyperbole can be a useful shortcut to make a point or argument but it must be used gently if you intend to reach a mutually agreeable (or equally mildly distasteful but at least acceptable) conclusion/negotiation, etc. If used for this purpose it is not a lie. Conclusion - intent and degree matter.
  13. Big boles? Yeah. True.
  14. Because, according to Undefeated, "You can just kill ICE agents" really means that you disagree with ICE agents' policies and beliefs and that you really don't intend any actually killing or death to happen. It is absolutely unreasonable to think that people mean what they say.
  15. https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/09/us/james-jennifer-crumbley-sentencing
  16. No. Idiotophobia. Buttigieg can't lead or manage a can of tomatoes. I see this 0% response poll as an indication of incredible discretion. Do you think they polled any black homosexuals? L's? B's? G's? T's? Others? By the percentages quoted as being "out there" we must have had some intersectional POCs polled who are also homophobic. Or intelligent. One of the two.
  17. Nah, I was talking about Men of Honor. By this response you prove you don't qualify.
  18. No, you outlaw crime. That stops it in its tracks. Make crime illegal and you'll have no crime. Wait . . . That's not right. The USSR had it right. Outlaw REPORTING CRIME and then you'll not have crime. Crime is not approved by the Politburo - nor by the Washington DC politicians and bureaucracy. A movie from about a decade ago had this topic in it. Child 44. "MGB leadership refuses to acknowledge the deaths as murders because Soviet doctrine states that only capitalism creates serial killers."
  19. Words mean things. These words mean one thing. All else is BS, quibbling, prevaricating, weasel-words, and unbecoming of men of honor. I have enough respect and honor for any Iranian to believe him when he says Death to America that he means exactly what those words mean.
  20. The one straight (possibly) white conservative male in Chicago went on a rampage. That's the only plausible explanation because every other type of person is incapable of committing any crime due to . . . you know, oppression and 1619 and phobias, etc. Just look at all the statistics which say so. If he did not pull the triggers he mind controlled the people who did so it is still his fault and let's talk about him.
  21. Didn't he get lifetime amnesty for anything he did, might do, or failed to do, or anything else possible? All he has to do is flash that magic Auto-Sign and Melania is TOAST.
  22. Wait . . . Isn't Great Replacement a fever conspiracy theory of the Proud Boys, Michigan Militia, Promise Keepers, Nazis, Fascists, Uncle Toms, Doomsday Preppers, and every other group that does not drink Dem Kool Aid? When did Beto join them?
  23. So, if illegal aliens are to be granted "due process" what is it called when the American Citizens (i.e. "the people" who are presumably the other side of the court cases brought by/for/against illegal aliens) are denied their side of due process? "a so-called “quiet amnesty” loophole called administrative closure, whereby immigration courts were instructed to dismiss deportation cases or close deportation cases for illegal aliens rather than adjudicating their asylum claims, used by the Biden administration." Biden, the administration, and the Democrats forget who are their constituents - AMERICANS!! Then they are amazed when Americans begin to notice and apply consequences. I guess their being amazed is warranted because they are in charge of most historical mainstream communication paths - network news, university/education, popular media/hollywood, government, etc. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/08/13/exclusive-uscis-director-joe-edlow-says-biden-plan-was-mass-amnesty-to-change-demographics-of-america/
  24. Too much sun. There seems to be more than correlation. Probably causation to the "no plants on Venus" scientific dilemma. And don't even talk about Mercury. NO CO2 and NO PLANTS!! But there seems to be this sun thingy going on . . . Is there a scientist in the house? Mars. Nearly all CO2, No plants. Very cold. No cows farting probably because they can't eat plants. Really needs some greenhouse gases. Can anyone think of any that might help the situation? Science is hard. Let's just make some mandates and that will solve everything!
  25. Gore was science until Fauci became science - Bill Nye was science in between for a bit. Now RV is science. Facts are not science. Extrapolated models which have proven to have no predictive value and fail the simple test to "predict" the past given known input are better than facts. They are NARRATIVE. So the FACT remains that the writers at the NYT are dumber than dirt and rocks because they do not know the FACT that water vapor is a greenhouse gas and the most abundant one at that. It's just science. Arguing the relative merits of different greenhouse gases and reflectivity, absorption, condensation, causation, correlation, the perfect ratios (which is correlates to the climate in the year XXXX and is to be defined by whom?) etc. does not modify in any way the FACT that the NYT lied to its stupid readers or is stupid on its very own. Probably both.
