No, I’m not making up some fake riots like someone in the Trump administration did. I’m talking about Deep Space 9 and their fictional riots that turned the tide away from tough love economics.  Ther'es a book about post-scarcity economics of the future called Trekenomics . 

 

The Republican response to Gus Walz was embarrassing. Gus Walz had an emotional reaction to seeing his father on stage, and got up and said, "that's my father," while he was speaking. Gus is a person with a non-verbal learning disorder . I worked in special education and social work, and I'd never heard that one before, but found it on the internet. It's similar but different than autism.  A radio host from Wisconsin Jay Weber apologizes  for his negative comments. I think radio hosts are prone to say outrageous things to attract attention, and lose their sense of propriety. He used to be a school teacher and ought to know better. But it's almost like the right wing thinks doing something stupid then apologizing is worth the attention it all gets. He has a history of bad tweets . He has attacked other president's children in the past. Ann Coulter is a 61 year old right wing journalists, writer and commentator who has been engaged 3 times, but all 3 times

I think people are sick if they think they can bring about a better result for Israel and Palestinians, by not voting for Harris.  Trump would undoubtedly align with the far right Benjamin Netanyahu, with whom it's suspected that he violated the Logan Act , add that to his criminal tab of seemingly endless law breaking and potential law breaking and suspected law breaking. The Palestinians-Americans frustration at not getting more traction with the Democratic party, could be seen as the party just not wanting to take on this fight now. They're trying to consolidate power behind Harris in the quick election drive to November.  I'm not sure they couldn't allow for 2 speeches, one by a Palestinian and one by someone who defends the Israeli side. Just to say we recognize the issues that exist and we give it free expression. We're not so uptight about conflict and dissension within our own party. Heck it might have drawn more eyeballs, but of course it's a no win sit

Growing up in Madison Wisconsin, I went to midnight showing of Rocky Horror Picture show, with squirt guns and newspapers, dancing in the isle, and singing along.  That got me thinking about alternate versions in this day and age, to the 1975 version : Rocky Horror Glee Show (2010) Season 2 Episode 5 The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Let's Do the Time Warp Again (2016). Watching it looking for something they do better... I suppose showing some interactive audience content wasn't horrible. 2015 West End video .

"Why are some Liberals voting for Kamala Harris based on the fact that she is Black/a woman? Don’t get me wrong there’s is nothing wrong with voting for which ever candidate you want. But voting for her or any candidate simply because they share a similar racial classification or sex is strange. It’s so weird to hear people chant about having the first “Black woman President” when that should not even be a factor in voting for someone. To be frank, I do not care about the race or sex of a candidate so long as they deliver on the tangibles and policies they claim to enforce. Just because you share a similar race as a candidate doesn’t mean they have your best interest at heart nor will they uplift your community into better conditions. So my question is why are people so focused on her Race and gender? I do not see a lot about her policy circulating around discussions, and people are too invested with her being the “first ____ President” in history." Reddit So, pretending race

I still can see, though ten white winters lean Between me and the flowers in your hand, Our happiness that vanished summer day, Our captured hope and valor as we stand Under some trees and wave across the summer. Infected by its margins, soon or late All wild things fade away. See how the trees Crumble toward nothing like the last thin scrawls In letters of goodbye; see how the lawn Descends nowhere; and how the luck is over There at the stricken center where we wait With half our smiles, and all our magic gone. And the white terror moves on, lapping inward, Like mist, like silence, that will take it all. Ten years away and wondering what to do, I search my spirit for some flush of pain. But thought by thought the quiet moments fall. My heart, my heart is blank as hills of snow! — And all time leads us toward that last december .. . I stare upon your crumbling smile and keep you. I do not love you now, but I remember. In a Far Summer What can be returned? Time will not curve. The moon,

I honestly never want to talk about this nonsense, just keep it walking. If it don't apply, let if fly, but this just feels like such a weird big bowl of wrong, that I have to parse it. Fox Host Says Men Who Vote For Women ‘Transition’ to Women ( Rolling Stone  ( Archive )) Pretty upsetting headline, if it were not so absurd. My question is would people fall for that, is their masculinity so threatened by a infotainment pundit of the far right referencing a scientist, who claims voting for a woman makes you transition to a woman. First off, what scientist? I doubt it. Science tells you to take vaccines and humans are effecting climate change, but that's against the far right wing agenda.  Second, I thought the far right didn't believe in transgender experience, but I guess they're trying to other people who will vote for Kamala Harris.   The whole strategy is foster hate, enjoy punching down and othering marginal populations.  My penis doesn't mean I can't see t

If elected, Harris’ VP choice could usher in the country’s first female Native American state governor—Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan . Tim Walz is a 60 year old white guy, governor of Minnesota. Grew up in Nebraska, married a Minnesota woman. Got a DUI in 1995, and claims to be sober since then. Nice reaction, that's what you're supposed to do if you're not an addict, and if you're an addict. He was a teacher. He coached his high school football team to a state championship in Nebraska. They moved to Mankato Minnesota where his wife is from. He was in the military and went to Congress. Then he became a governor. He's for legalization of pot. He's for gun freedom. Can't all be perfect, but maybe it will cool down those who are gun nuts.  Just read he taught a year in China, and his children were born through IVF. I think we need a rigorously and aggressively sane person in government. We've had too much weirdness. Now that the ticket is locked in, there

Enslaver George Fitzhugh of Virginia rejected the other key principle of the Declaration of Independence: that everyone has a right to a say in the government under which they live. “We do not agree with the authors of the Declaration of Independence, that governments ‘derive their just powers from the consent of the governed,’” he wrote in 1857. “All governments must originate in force, and be continued by force.” There were 18,000 people in his county and only 1,200 could vote, he said, “[b]ut we twelve hundred…never asked and never intend to ask the consent of the sixteen thousand eight hundred whom we govern.” Heather Cox Richardson reports in her substack today. Republicans started out fighting these types of people, now they are those people. Power corrupts. A connection to the people is the only thing that saves democracy. 

Look who's talking about identity politics now? Trump accuses Jews of not being Jewish if they're not right wing (and vote for him). And he says Kamala Harris just recently became black. He never met a set of ideas that he couldn't try to exploit. The campaign is sinking, moving from bad photo op to missteps. His trying to control the narrative has been interrupted by the weird narrative. I think JD Vance's insistence that childless people are lesser citizens, is just another Trump style move to marginalize people. Dividing people is the Republican playbook. Divided we can't see our common needs, that aren't tax breaks for the rich, and depriving women of health autonomy.
