Not converted
Alone among the big-name “virus” influencers, Brownstone Institute has NOT converted to the Trump cult. This article by Ann Bauer on the tyranny of Walz makes the point sharply, sticking to REALITY instead of cult love. Walz jumped into the monstrosity on March 15, along with the other demons. He treated the rioters in the…

Latest from Craig Wright
This dude is giving us a full textbook on the Personality Of The Professional Criminal. He exhibits all of the characteristics in expanded and methed-up form. Overconfidence is one of the qualities. Wright is completely confident that he is the Most Moral And Honest Angel In The Universe, entitled to give losers lessons in ethics…

Typical, not exceptional
One commentator observed that unlike most other top politicians Biden never had a fanbase. He was NOT a crowd-pleaser. He dealt solely with other politicians and donors. At first I agreed with the implication that Biden is unusual. Second thought: No, Biden is typical. Politicians with cults or fanbases rarely make it to the presidency.…

One for the ages
Washington’s farewell address: Make no entangling alliances! Eisenhower’s farewell address: Beware the military-industrial complex! Biden’s farewell address: KU KUX KAN DIDN’T WEAR THEIR HOODS! WOMEN ARE NOT WITHOUT ELECTRICAL!

Who are they talking to?
Repooflicans are returning to Reagan-era slogans or even Truman-era slogans. Who are they talking to? Nobody under 60 even knows what a commie is. I suppose they’re talking to my generation, but we don’t need any training or reinforcement. Most of us are still watching MSNBC/FOX, getting our daily dose of the Good Old Stuff.…

It’s customary
I was thinking about the cozy relationship between oil companies and “climate” organizations. Petroleum is a major funder of the “climate” loonies. It looks corrupt, and it should annoy the “climate” loonies, but it’s actually normal. Extractive industries usually pay tribute in one way or another. It’s not a nuisance, it’s the basic cost of…

Simple difference
A long time ago I got permanently tired of the word flipflop. Both sides use it all the time as an insult when the opponent CHANGES HIS MIND IN RESPONSE TO CHANGING CIRCUMSTANCES. Responding to change is what LIVING THINGS do. NEGATIVE FEEDBACK IS LIFE. Remaining the same through all changes is what INANIMATE OBJECTS…

Amazing storage
The huge song store in a mental jukebox is endlessly amazing. Tonight some random bit of melody pushed the button for the silly ’60s song…. Who put the bomp in the bompdebompdebomp, who put the ram in the ramalamadingdong? Now it’s stuck on autoplay. Most of my jukebox selections make sense. They’re classical pieces that…

More honesty
Trump continues reverting to his norm. He has completely abandoned his 2016 fake populism. Now he’s just a noisy version of Mitt Romney, a pure servant of the billionaires, as he was before 2016. Latest: Basically, we’re going to drill baby drill, get the energy prices down, almost immediately, we’re going to close the border…

No, it’s worse.
Some of Billy Graham’s descendants are supporting the Democrat side, rebelling against Billy’s son Franklin. They wrote to Franklin: The issue, Franklin, is that in your worship of Trump you have forsaken the gospel. We are voting for Harris but we only worship Jesus. Exactly. The 1st commandment is clear. There’s one god, and you…

Switch of purpose by purpose
I noticed that Fessenden’s patents for aiding plant growth with electric charge are classified by the patent office as: A01M21/046 – Apparatus for destruction by steam, chemicals, burning, or electricity by electricity He was trying to grow plants with electricity by electricity. He wasn’t trying to destroy plants with electricity by electricity. Why is this…

Wallace got the shield
These Hill reporters ask why Trump wasn’t protected by a bulletproof shield. Apparently the shield is only provided for incumbent presidents, not for other candidates. The rule must have been different in previous decades. In 1968, as part of a stupid hippie group, I attended a George Wallace speech in Toledo. I was impressed by…

He’s being honest this time
Some say Trump must have suffered PTSD from the near-shooting. Nope. His new honesty started before the shooting. In this campaign he’s no longer bothering to read the fake scripts that his advisers want. He’s just saying EXACTLY what he means and letting the chips fall. Two examples: (1) He said that military medal of…

How it worked
My current Hudson obsession gave rise to several questions about details. The unique failsafe brake system is vaguely described online but not detailed or diagrammed. I bought a ’48 Stepdown Owners Manual on Ebay for $40 to satisfy my curiosity. The brake system was pretty much how I imagined it. The pedal applies leverage to…

Nice landmark
Before the “virus” holocaust I often had good casual conversations in the store or the neighborhood or the bus. All conversation was wiped out in the holocaust, along with everything else that made life worthwhile. The perpetrators, including Demon Trump and Demon Inslee and Demon Mecher and a million soulless bureaucrats, will never be punished…
