The moon mission that's quintessentially American isn't Apollo 11. It's Apollo 13. The oxygen tank exploding is Trump. You remember how it ends.

The only thorough answer to a question a teacher needs to prepare for is, "What good is an education at all? When are we ever going to use this stuff?" Because there's a generation of people for whom there was no answer, who aren't smart enough to vote, but think they are.

This will tend to torpedo #StarTrek. Make the timeline of our planet 50 feet. The rise of homo sapiens is the last inch. If we're in our heyday, we have maybe 2 more inches before we go extinct or morph into angels or whatever. 100,000 years.

No matter who I may think is the most beneficially influential person in the history of the species, I don't believe he/she was sent by God. Sorry. I do reserve the right to call someone or something a "godsend" if I want.

Regulation of capitalism in a democracy keeps capitalism alive. Overwhelming greed just angers a democracy, resulting in worse regulation. The true pro-capitalists are those who recognize the human tendency to overdo it when you're wealthy. It's the "pink in tooth and claw" types who are its enemy.

Somewhere, there's an actor whose résumé includes, in that scene when McCoy says "You'll flood the whole compartment" and Scotty says "He's dead already," the guy at the bottom of the screen who grabs Kirk by the waist, then sneaks away without showing his face. #StarTrek #TWOK

I have come to the none-too-Tory conclusion that insurance, and even capitalism itself, is a poor fit for health care. If you want it to help you pay for your pre-existing condition, then it can't be insurance. That's like buying car insurance for your recently wrecked Kia.

He says two conflicting reasons for the non-war war are true simultaneously. That makes him a compromised liar and discredited source of information. So who’s running the non-war on his behalf? And to what end?

The Apollo missions in the 1960s had what would originally be called the LEM, the Lunar Excursion Module. That’s what I think of when I read this.

There is video of the moment Hillary Clinton was alerted that video of the closed deposition leaked, and that Lauren Boebert was the culprit. If I were she, I would've said, "This continues with either me in the room, or her in the room, but not both. Consequences, people. For once!"

Military status of a Presidential candidate doesn't indicate suitability to serve as commander-in-chief. It's not a hurdle for Newsome, Harris, Biden, AOC. Yes, they never dodged a draft. They weren't subjected to one.

Dear Algorithm: find me someone who brings social media stuff to Lloyd Smucker (R, PA 11). I know nobody posts for him; as I said, (R). Just wondering if it's possible for a constituent to get a word with him, outside of govt-controlled email.

I wish there could be a list of people of influence who either never heard of Jeffrey Epstein, or could smell the stench and steered clear. If there was, it would be longer.

When did a President have to have military experience to be taken seriously in the position as commander-in-chief? It's similar to our insistence on Christian Presidents.

If memory serves, the Fairness Doctrine required opposing views on any broadcast. And it was scrapped by the Reagan administration. It made possible the rise of the likes of Rush Limbaugh. Using a long gone doctrine as an excuse to cancel Colbert-Talarico is stinky.

I oversubscribed on Substack. I devoted an unused Apple address, and never opened the emails, but just deleted it all periodically, then deleted the trash. Now Apple says it won’t back up my phone unless I upgrade my iCloud. So bye bye Substack.

Uh-oh. To impeach Trump, there must be a Democratic Speaker of the House. Which requires a majority Democratic House. Which requires Mike Johnson to swear them in. He's already procrastinated swearing in a Member. That was a test run. Uh-oh.

What if the whole mental fugue state we call MAGA is just a demonization of making a mistake? He never admits to it, as if that would cost him approval points. Mistakes are what happens when you grow, and learn. But learning is woke. Or gay.

I predicted he'd tear down the Kennedy Center. He is. I now predict he'll never rebuild it, but continue to take donations from private companies for it. It's a second bribe vehicle, like the ballroom, which he'll also never finish.
