    Off-Topic Lost my Dad last night

    Watching one's parents in decline is sobering, and challenging in terms of demands of meeting their everyday needs. Not everyone had a good relationship full of happy memories, especially around holiday and family gatherings, but if you did, consider yourself fortunate and lucky and take solace...

    Off-Topic RIP Robert Redford

    My top 3 would be Jeremiah Johnson, The Natural, Three Days of the Condor. I also rewatched All Is Lost last evening, itself wholly defining of his skill without benefit of dialog.

    Politics Economic News

    I shudder to think what happens to the economy if Trump usurps control of the Fed, which he's most definitely trying to do. I'm also confident that little correlation exists between interest rates and job growth. 25bps is all he's getting while these stupidass tariffs are in effect.

    Politics Trump Administration's War on Cancer Research

    https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/magazine/trump-administration-cancer.html Rachel Maddow did a segment on this last evening and interviewed the Times reporter, above. This is maybe the most head-scratching attack by this administration. What constituency might it represent? Is Trump even...

    Politics The Charlie Kirk Thread

    I had heard of this guy only recently from podcast references. This morning I'm viewing reels of stuff he has said, his strongly professed beliefs, his slanted version of history, et al. Good fucking riddance to you Charlie.

    Politics Epstein Files | Ghislaine Maxwell

    This may be the tip of the iceberg with prostitution rings posing as "modeling agencies" using underage teenage girls, involving international pedo white men of influence, Russian oligarchs, JP Morgan and Deutsche Banks, money laundering, and most significant, Donald J. Trump and members of his...

    Politics RFK Jr, HHs & MAHA News | Chaos at HHS

    So RFK Jr. gets hauled before Congressional oversight committee to explain recent board firings, re-appointments, CDC firings, and anti-vax stances, et al, yet the committee chair refuses to hear his testimony under oath, so he is essentially allowed freedom to answer questions however he...

    Off-Topic Shingles vaccine

    I had shingles back in the mid 1990s. Knocked me out of work two weeks, went back to work for a week, then back out another week. Got the vaccine series a few years ago without problem.

    Politics USA Military leadership

    I have more faith in our military leaders than I do in *anyone* in the Trump administration. A provisional government can be assembled quickly, or now for that matter, and power transferred. We a full-fledged one-party authoritarian wannbe dictator now and it needs to be put down.

    Politics USA Military leadership

    But the courts, Congress, and the military are doing exactly this now in the form of a slow moving coup, or do you not agree?

    Politics USA Military leadership

    These men and women supposedly take an oath to the Constitution and not to any POTUS. How long before they demonstrate their oath and put an end to this administration?

    Politics South Park S27 E3 - Militarized DC

    The Chat GPT spot on and hardly satire at all. Troops occupation not overly satirical either.

    Politics Economic News

    Powell and Biden had this economy under control. We were due for rate cuts and got a couple. Then Trump, Navarro-inspired tariffs, wild-ass numbers pulled out of his ass every time he opens month, on/off, on/off, on/off, markets shorted, markets gained, business uncertainty, large business...

    Politics RFK Jr, HHs & MAHA News | Chaos at HHS

    The media should be laying the CDC shooting and death of law enforcement on the doorsteps of Health and Human Services head, whenever he comes out of the air fryer.
