Retired software thingy. An explorer without an obsession, so I’m an inch deep, but a mile wide. And a voice to match. No Republican is fit to hold public office.

Yikes. I read this from time to time, especially when over there.
Rudy Giuliani was seriously injured in a car accident?..
Hey Congress – make Alex Acosta's testimony public and televised. There's absolutely no ethical reason for it to be private and transcribed. Nefarious AF. We need to hear your questions. We want to see him squirm. We need to see him squirm. Yet another sign of a cover-up.
Look up “Béchamp,” a contemporary and antagonist of Pasteur. Béchamp thought healthy people never get diseases & the weak unhealthy people who do get them usually get them from vaccines. This, of course, contradicts over 200 yrs of research and evidence, including stopping COVID. #RatFKrJr is nutz.

See also “overtime,” “weekends,” and “vacations,” concepts that DOD NOT EXIST until unions demanded them. Now everyone gets them, unionized or not. Freeloaders! Join a union and pay what’s due.
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
Oh, good, an excuse to NOT go on the roof and get it off the sides of my solar panels.
Someone asked for a general strike. There’s a simpler way. The unions call it a “work-to-rule” action. Follow all the laws, exactly. START WITH SPEED LIMITS. If only 4-5% go the limit, it slows all the rest. Economic chaos in days as trucks are late, workers can’t get to work, kids aren’t picked up
Day 224 REALITY CHECK: The election was highly compromised. There was a coup. The Supreme Court was the primary lever. Everything we have witnessed is TREASON. There’s no way out of this without MASS MOVEMENTS of the people. No one is coming to save us. We must rise up in peaceful revolution NOW.
If #RatFKrJr’s threat to pull the COVID vaccines off the market actually happens, all the morgue #TrumpTrailers need to have the giant golden “T” on every side, so all the photos remind whose fault those deaths are.
Later, Americans will revoke the citizenships of all registered #Republicans, and treat them the way the Confederacy was during early Reconstruction: “You don’t understand or accept the US Constitution, so we’ll run it from now on.”
JD Vance Rushed To Walter Reed After Inner Hillbilly Returns
We’re treating detainees at these illegal camps in Florida and Indianapolis far worse than we treated the Nazi POWs in WWII. Why? Tell me it’s not racism. Go ahead. Lie about it, you #Republican Nazis.
The guy who tariffed lumber, who is trying to deport the construction workforce, and who campaigned on his opposition to Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing does not actually care about bringing down housing prices.
This is how they beat up on a minority they already despise to distract from guns being the #1 killer of US children. Pls read, comment, subscribe... johnfugelsang.substack.com/p/straight-w...
They organized after FDR built the new deal. They built a propaganda machine to counter research and facts, starting after the Powell Memo They’ve softened American minds for 40 years starting w Reagan. They set the attack plan in 2017 They are ending America now. Billionaire owners of the GOP
Checking in after a lovely weekend. Are all #Republicans still racists?
I was a kid in Cincy in the early ‘60s. That station was hopping day and night. Met relatives from eastern KY all the time, in from Lexington, Ashland, Frankfort. Dad went to/from Chicago for govt business occasionally. Now the station is the Hall of Justice in Superman, and Natural History Museum.
The correct idea for ‘what does the US get out of supporting US chipmakers, including Intel, by feeding them seen money?’ is Jobs, and Tax Revenue from the profits of the Company, their vendors, their employees, and the sales taxes at the state and local levels. Of course, if we keep cutting taxes…
@kornetzke.bsky.social I heard @bobcesca.bsky.social read your ‘Behold’ post on his 8/26/25 podcast. That writing is definitely worth a follow.
Wait til some laid-off govt engineer spends a whole weekend putting a chalk/water mixture sprayer in the undercarriage of his truck to spray all the stripes at once as it drives over that intersection.
Nothing makes Just-Us-es immune or unindictable. There’s no DOJ internal paper making that against policy, like there is with the office of the president. I skip Roberts only because his apptmt and confirmation weren’t criminal, like the Alito, Thomas and Barrett ones. I despise Gorsuch & his mom.
not just that he has no constitutional authority, there isn't even any particular legal or institutional mechanism by which the president can make anyone treat this as anything other than a weird advisory opinion.
The President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa called the orange felon a Russian asset in a live televised speech. Well done, this is how you do it. 👏
Impeachment is just a majority of the House. Let Americans find out all the details of their lives an crimestyles. I want investigations into #LeonardLeo’s crimes against the constitution, by making them pass his religious test for office.
America is full of s…?
Attention Paint-ballers…

I went all the way to MT for a week of digging with an excellent program that sends its finds to the Cincinnati Museum of Natural History (plays the Hall of Justice in latest Superman)…and you walk up your office’s steps?
If you're arrested in Illinois protesting the planned ICE HQ in North Chicago, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.
I want it to happen in a state prison, so a real doctor can tell us about his real health, height, weight, and drug use.
Because all the gardeners are scared to leave their homes.
First, begin impeachment hearings against Thomas, Gorsuch, Alito and Kavanaugh.
If you are a supporter of #Drumpf, you can’t be an American. Americans support the Constitution. He has said he won’t follow it. Pick one: Are you a #Republican or an American? Because you can’t be both anymore.
It’s that “right of the people to cook meth shall not be infringed” clause….
Who married this tiny-toothed, huge-forehead-owning affliction from Satan? Has it bred yet?
OMG this cracked me up!
What if we established a tax-exempt Church of Democracy and sued the government for infringing on our religious freedoms when it does authoritarian stuff?
This was where the concept of “rising to your highest level of incompetence” comes from. The #Drumpf Admin is populated exclusively by these clowns.
Posted too quick, so here’s text for the picture: “Cover of the paperback, “The Peter Principle”, by Dr Laurence Peter and Raymond Hull. 1970. Subtitled “Why things always go wrong.”
To those who remember, wow, an ENTIRE Administration. And we thought Cheney/W was a sh!t show.
#Republicans are currently protecting the next mass shooter.
I thought you said you needed your guns to protect FROM fascist tyranny. I misheard. It was to protect YOUR fascist tyranny. Siege #Drumpf, y’all.
20 more casualties in the #Republican Party’s War on Americans
The second-best thing about putting #Drumpf in prison would be FINALLY getting a real health report from a real doctor.
Meanwhile, Germany to restore portraits of Hitler…NOWHERE!!!

Zoom in on the picture and read the article. This is a $186 Billion reduction in SNAP over the next 10 yrs to pay for #Drumpf’s tax cuts for… #Drumpf and his family of grifters, among others.
Get the #TrumpTrailers ready at the hospital.

Government secrecy thrives in news deserts. A new study by @brechnerfoi.bsky.social shows that states with more newspapers are more likely to respond to records requests, and states with fewer papers are more likely to ignore them. Read the report here:
Better: Are you Taking Gun Dollars Or Making Gun Sense? Dollars or Sense?
Are all #Russians lying promise-breakers, or just all the ones that are making money from kissing #Putin’s ass?
At a ballgame in LA last night, a Dodger fan from England whose wife is from my home town, the opponents city, asked if I knew about a local ice cream there. I mentioned the ice cream parlor, and the library across the street. His wife had taken him there to show him her ‘home library’. Same one.
My home Internet went kersplat, and I raced to the library for its wifi and ample table outlets for my work laptop. I worked for five hours straight. LIBRARIES. They have been there for me all my life.
Are you taking gun money Or Making Gun Sense?
"Ashli Babbitt was a grown ass adult who made a series of conscious, ill-advised decisions to engage in treasonous behavior, and she got exactly what she deserved. She was a traitor. She was a threat to national security. There is no nuance needed here."
Whaaat?!?!? Not “only the best people”? Not folks of the first order? I want my vote back. (What? It doesn’t work like that? Uh oh…)
the harsh realization that every single administration hire is one of the shittiest unqualified mediocre people in the world
“When I call Kennedy a ‘dangerous crank,’ I'm not saying that as an insult or as hyperbole, but honestly as the most economical way of describing the man's views,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on RFK Jr.
Here’s a better look at this smirking # MAGAAT. Just wondering who paid for the hat, and her ticket to DC, and the Congressperson’s office that gave it a ticket to get into the hearing.
Who was this child-hating creepy woman wearing this CONFIRM RFK Jr hat during his hearings on Jan 30? She was directly over his shoulder, in the second row.
5 accts followed me in the last little while. Two actual humans, Two pairs of tits (sorry, that’s what all their photos/avatars show,) And an internet ad agency.
Huge #Republican/#Russian ‘bot farms post constantly.
Democrats look to the future of America. #Republicans can only see to the next financial quarter.
Are we no longer talking about the EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? Are we?
He’s looking more like this every week! 😳
His father said “a coward took Fletcher away from us” in the church shooting in Minnesota. He’s not quite correct It’s 220 cowards in the House And 53 cowards in the Senate. And a YUGE chicken in the White House. Those 274 cowards helped another coward take Fletcher.
Tar & feather first.
Yeah, figgered.
It was like this. How Boston Children's Hospital Took On Polio—And Won Their findings opened the door for development of the Salk and Sabin polio vaccines that would deliver the U.S. from the grips of polio. Read: www.wgbh.org/news/nationa...
Love your handle. Did your #Russian operator pick it for you, or are you just another ‘bot from their FSB’s Internet Research Service?
Call me when ICE starts picking up White folks, from Ireland or Italy or Germany or England, etc., for overstaying their visas, and puts THEM in Alligator Auschwitz or Buchenwald Speedway, and I’ll stop calling #Drumpf’s policies racist. Until then, they’re racist policies.
I HAVE to pad across the floor of our tiny wood-frame, because my usual heels-first stride shakes the whole house. In a different context, has this child never snuck up on anyone?
…working in them for years, going back to school, and figuring out TWO formulas to keep roofs from collapsing. Second essay is the guy who has run the National Cemetery Agency (the what?!) since 2009. I’ll let you know how that goes. But my dad’s columbarium at Arlington always looks great.
I got this on a lark from the library. I am only on the second chapter/essay, and I already know this is an important book. Each chap is about someone in the (federal?) government who’s doing a great job at something you’ve NEVER thought about. First essay, a guy who studied mines, starting with…/1
There! That’s where I’d heard of him. My prof in 1979 Intro To Programming ran us through the concept of the Turing Test, and then said a paper was still being discussed as to whether someone had made a machine to pass it.
George Lucas’ first, “THX 1138” (1971) had Robert Duvall’s character doing a confession-style interaction with an AI face, in what looks like a bus bench and display of today.
Now that I’ve retired from the field, I’m getting around to reading books on the subject(s) I’ve collected and never read past Chap 1. A Small Matter of Programming by Bonnie Nardi (1993) And The Human Use of Human Beings: Cybernetics and Society by Norbert Weiner (1954)
Scan to PDF, open in Word or Pages, should be able to edit it, instead of retyping the whole thing.

Ah, the old “Towers of Hanoi” ploy.
New rule. A parent may only propose removing a book from the school library only after reading it in its entirety and delivering a book report to the librarian. Until then no discussion shall be entered into.
A couple of months ago, the Navy dishonored civil rights hero Harvey Milk by removing his name from a ship. Now, the Air Force is dishonoring itself by celebrating a domestic terrorist called Ashli Babbitt.
Oh, by the way, #Epstein => #Drumpf.
Mom told me, on the first day I was alive, the thing she’d learned from her mom: “No #Republican is fit to hold public office.” (Yes, Dad confirmed he saw this in the Maternity ward.) Always true in my lifetime, in every way, on every occasion, of every #Republican.
Wow, @npr.org is doing the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. And interviewed Haley Barbour. I’d forgotten that sh!t. #Republican powerbroker in Congress and a hitman in #Reagan’s cabinet, he got to enjoy the incompetence of 5 years of the W Admin when he became Gov of Louisiana and Katrina hit.
Hell, a vast majority of Americans don’t even OWN a gun. But gun owners average at least 3-4 guns per owner. And ammo for each one. Cops dont want to knock on doors, and firemen are leery about house fires.
Excellent, succinct description via cartoon graphic
For those of you under twenty-five or thirty, so never heard the term ‘pre-existing condition,’ thanks to #Democrats under #Obama eliminating the concept for ALL health insurance as part of the Affordable Care Act, look it up. NO #Republican votes to eliminate it. They’re owned by the insurers.
Another easily-preventable, #Republican endorsed mass shooting of Americans. Man, #Repuicans REALLY hate Americans.
Vote #Republican = Kill Children.
