How does renaming it to "Super Intelligence" quell any fears people may have? If anything, it makes it seem more ominous. And how does the religious right feel about such a name?

The Trump White House will sabotage mail-in voting, blocking before and disputing after, disenfranchising Americans however they can. The Roberts Court will make up some BS to allow it. It’s wrong, it isn’t fair, it shouldn’t be. But it is. And it’s beatable. Big numbers in person and they lose.

Yes, as well as how much he prioritizes shallow reality show bluster. That is now, in all seriousness and to great negative effect, a U.S. foreign policy priority. And hey, his supporters think that’s what strength is, and get a vicarious thrill from it, so at least someone’s happy.

This is a picture I took of our now 15 yo on our way up to Emerald Lake in RMNP a few years back. I increased the vibrancy here. Some form of this needs to end up as a tattoo.
Boy touching a very calm mountain lake with ripples beginning. The sky and pine-covered mountain slope in the distance and the clouds are reflected in the lake. Taken mid-morning so the sun is also reflected.
