Ten Things

 1.  It just seems, at least once a day....I identify or suggest something being scam.  In the 1990s....I might have done this once a week.

2.  I noticed there's some pressure being applied to bone-diggers/anthropologists....to stop identifying genders of cave-peoples they dug up.  

I contemplated this scene....44,000 years ago....Yorg talking to Nog with a language of 66 word.....trying to describe his gender-confusion....that he felt different inside.  Nog felt after the hour long conversation....that mostly what Yorg was talking about....was some big 'cat' they saw on the hunting walk in the morning.

3.  I've come to the opinion that VP Harris never attended a single class in college, and someone must have done the home-work or tests for her.

4.  There is some fake reality going on where a political agenda is presented....suggesting if you just adjusted (conditioned) to live with less, you'd help save the world from various 'demons'. 

The guy/gal on the convincing end?  They usually wear $300 Italian-made loafers, a $200 sports jacket, and seem to have a college debt of $75,000 still lingering after a dozen years of employment.

5.  Joe Rogan says Canada is a communist country.....end of the story. 

Some American college kids will start to cite evidence of communism working, and their one/only example....will be Canada.  You can't make this BS up.

6.  Just odd....how many people are having a mental health crisis these days, and why all of the sudden?

7.  Because of woke-scripts....I think Marvel will shutdown by 2025 for a period of three years....to review how they script out stories.  

8.  If anyone ever cornered President Biden and asked him what his pronouns were, he'd probably respond with 'cherries and cream'.  

9.  Best anti-woke TV show in the past decade?  Peaky Blinders....from Netflex.

10.  NPR creating a 'new' disinformation team?  To replace the present disinformation team?  The way it sounds....there will be a disinformation management crew, over the top layer of the current disinformation team.  In a year or two.....I expect a super-duper disinformation 'chief' to be brought in...to manage things.  

The Thing About Perception

 

It's interesting how thing change over a 31-year period.

You start off worrying about the ice age coming, and you reach a point where you worry about dire warming.

Then you repeat, and repeat, and repeat.

'Reality-phobic'?

 I saw someone use the phase today in social media.....'reality-phobic'.  Basically meaning.....a fear of reality.  

Applying to woke-folks....the pronoun people....and 'racism-is-everywhere' crowd?  Yeah.

But in most cases of phobias.....there is supposed to be a rehab program that can get you back to a safe condition.  I just can't imagine how this rehab would work.

Ten Things

 1.  Nothing done in moderation....will kill you.  So two slices of bacon, with a biscuit...is acceptable.  A dozen slices of bacon, with six biscuits loaded with honey/jelly.....probably aren't healthy.

2.  If your government is hyped about Nazis in the US Army.....it's some chance that Putin is somewhere in the middle of this....grinning.

3.  Whether you like it or not.....you are still speaking the 'kings English'.

4.  Something called NewsNation is considering hiring Chris Cuomo (formerly of CNN).  Maybe there are sixteen people consumed with hearing Cuomo.....but he's number three on my mute-reaction list.

5.  It seems now that some 11-year-old kids hold more conventional wisdom than people finishing up four years of college.

6.  If a guy can self-identify as a woman.....logic dictates that the same guy could identify as a PhD-holding individual (with no college), a NFL quarterback (with no football background), and a gourmet cook (no experience other than flipping burgers).

7.  The more that VP Harris speaks in public.....the more you wonder about her college years and if she really attended college.

8.  Once you utter 'experts say'.....I usually hit mute.

9.  If aliens arrived from Space....got all friendly....then proclaimed that Trump was really a smart guy....would the anti-Trump crowd brand the aliens as unacceptable and demand they leave ASAP?

10.  Isn't it odd....Biden comes out of talks saying Saudis will pump more oil....Saudis come out of meeting say they already hit max pumping.  You have to wonder....were the two groups in the same meeting?

Where The Dementia Chatter With Joe Biden Will Lead To

 This past week....the chatter intensified with the comment that people have watched the President receive pills at a certain time before a public appearance....to bring up to a marginal level of functioning.  The person handing the pills to President Joe?  His wife....Jill.

At some point in the next month or two....at some public setting with questions being asked....some idiot reporter will confront either Joe or Jill on the pill business.  They will give some funny answer that makes no sense, and then a couple of news networks will ask more questions.

Yes, the clock is now ticking.

I think shortly after the mid-term failures....the ability to keep this farce going....will collapse.

The crew managing things at the White House?  Well...as badly as they've treated VP Harris...the whole question comes up with her as the potential President, and will she remember all the crappy stuff they said or did?

I would suggest that the dementia business will be laid out shortly after January, as the House starts to investigate Hunter, and the corruption business. The President will resign, and Harris steps up.  The new VP?  Likely to be someone with a history in the Senate.

The amusing part of al of this? NPR, CNN, WaPo and the rest....have to sit there and suggest that this came 'suddenly' (only in the past 3 months), and then get off the topic real quick.  No one will believe them, and their status drops another mile.

Over the next decade....a dozen books will be written of the 'dementia-era' and how no one wanted to take responsibility of an old guy.  It's a sad story in some ways.

The Island Experiment Idea

I noticed an interesting suggestion today.

Someone said....why not put two groups of people out on two island.  One group would be regular everyday conservatives, and the other would be woke-progressives.  Same resources.....same tents....same start-up situation.  Then the question came....what would happen in just one single year (365 days)?

I sat for a while...pondering this.

I eventually came to this logical conclusion.

The woke-progressive folks would would probably start to argue over things....the dynamic of survival....the language (pronouns) to be used....the necessity to group-talk on everything (from everyone eating the same food, to everyone using the same political slant on life).  

About 90 days into this...the woke-progressive folks would start to break off into two or three groups....one being hard-core woke-progressive....the others less so.  

Team-work on the woke-progressive side would be a problem by the sixth month.

Verbal attacks and physical attacks would be a common theme by the last couple of weeks of the year.  

On the conservative side?  There would be a discussion on day one about priorities, and most all would agree to the top five priorities.  

By the sixth month, there would be an abundance of food, and they'd likely do the kind neighborly thing....offering some to the opposite crowd.

At the end of the year.....about 75-percent of the woke-progressive folks would ask to be moved to the conservative side, and I suspect around three folks from the conservative side would ask to move to the woke-progressive side. 

Here's the thing....no one would suggest this one-year thing was a failure.  But you'd start to notice that the woke-progressive folks didn't want to talk about their feelings much, or their failures.  

Odd how society has progressed to this point.. 

Saving Us From the Evil Nazis

 Yesterday....the Democrats in the House passed an amendment to the military budget....that basically says for the Pentagon to 'fire' (remove) any military members who are white supremacists, Nazi-supporters, or extremists.

So the question should be asked.....just how many Nazis are in the US military.

Throughout my period (1977 to 1999, and the decade after that as a contractor)....I never came across a Nazi-enthusiast in that entire time-frame.

White supremacists?  You mean KKK-people?  None of them either.  

Now, I admit....I worked around the IT and intelligence field, and what you mostly had were people with unique sexual habits....individuals with extreme OCD.....and borderline schizophrenia folks.  

Will anyone get kicked out.....mostly based on extremist-labels?  I would take a guess that over the next year....there might be forty-odd people let-go.  If you'd say sexual-deviants needed to exit?  Oh, it'd probably go up into the 5,000 range....but they aren't a threat....like those evil Nazi characters.

Is there anything really positive out of this effort?  Well....you can pat your House member on the back and thank him for helping to eradicate Nazis from the US military.  If you'd gone back to 1980 and said Nazis in the Army or Navy would be a big deal in 2022?  Most people would have laughed, but that's how far society has moved in the past fifty years.
