Crypto like AI not what many people make it out to be. It's the drecks of society subverting it's genius and usefulness. White collar crooks and political grifters, not investors, not philosophers, not scientists building useful tech. Worse part the wrong people get blamed. Can't have nice things.

Remember this beautiful tribute to Charlie Kirk Trump offered? Tear down that ballroom (and arch) and sell it in various sizes along with certificates of authenticity signed by the new President. That is how you diffuse the cost arguments with Trump' own tactic, won't cost taxpayers a dime!

As someone who disagrees with *most use of military force the USA has employed since Tora Bora (2001) sadly this situation represents a must intervene. I don't know if Trump rejected a Saudi call for aid or if his staff of dispshits has fully comprehended all this but....it isn't really optional.

A series of attack ads in North Caolina against Roy Cooper are running. These are without a doubt the most egregious lies and subversive ads I've ever seen for anything, ever. You really won't beleive what you are about to read, I promise. www.wfae.org/politics/202...

End political redistricting (gerrymandering) one of the most important reforms needed to save America. Case study, my own NC 1st District. Re-drawn to give (R) Laurie Buckhout (truly disgusting Trump acolyte) her second chance to win the district over (D) Don Davis. ncnewsline.com/2026/07/31/t...

As Alexander won fantastic set piece battles in his campaign against Persia he soon faced prolonged insurgency. By accounts far more brutal than the victories he's remembered for. Primarily in regions of Bactria and Sogdiana now modern day "stans" Afhan, Uzbek, Taji, Turk, Khazak, Krygrz.

I decided to go to MapQuest this week. I might miss the integration and features but I'll help them achieve parity or surpass techopolies if I can. The jeers I got from few still in my orbit I can't get rid of made it worth it. Reminder, same people dunked on Bud Light as the devil's juice.

They put an unaccountable paramilitary force on your streets, killed thousands in your name, stole your children's future from Treasury, and actively subverting your vote to end them. We've bagged the heads of people for far less. If what they have done is "legal" so is this. Find a way.

The Odyssey contains very real lessons. The biggest is that stupidity, bravado, greed, selfishness, pridefulness, arrogance, and emotionally unchecked actions of "heroes" and "leaders" can lead whole societies to ruin...along with themselves.

The Odyssey "debates" in an America coming off 26 years of continuous war...are we the dumbest society ever? Homer's works focus heavily on widowed wives, orphaned children, and grieving parents, illustrating that war destroys entire societies, not just soldiers. You absolute fucking morons.

Dismantling the ICC (international criminal court) at the same time as crimes in Venuezuela and Iran become clearer and more frequent. The baddies list at the ICC Trump and Rubio want to protect. Putin, Netanyahu, (Trump), Duterte, Al-bashir, Hlaing. Crimes against humanity.

Took over 20 years from impetus to institution, for reforms and income tax to return oligarch power back to the people. It took another 20 years to really start working. Seventy years of work started to come undone in 1980's (Reagan) bringing us to today. The new war won't be won in our lifetimes.

The founders knew they didn't have a liberal democracy, only a framework that would allow one to evolve. The battle was against those provisioning for elite and powerful to rule while champions of fundamental rights added protections for individuals rejecting tyranny, even by "the people".

Not only killing the wrong people "over there" also killing or ruining our soldiers lives "over here". Trauma from drone operators or "operators" during far more acceptable scenarios (GWOT) when collatateral damage and mistakes happened. Keeps gofundme in business for family survivors.
