    The Face-Eating Leopards Strike Again

    Who’d have thought that the Canadians would stop apologizing for being stuck in this confusing situation, and would start bossing around the face-eating leopards? Wow. Que les etrange temps roulent.

    IANAL, But

    I’ve been following the tribulations (and am looking forward to the trials) of Donald Trump. It’s fascinating, to me, the level of stupidity and bad lawyering that the republican fascist party has managed to scrape together.

    Plumbing the Plumbing

    Now that Trump’s indicted, I’m suddenly OK with hearing all the Trump news, all the time. It turns out I really hate the guy, and am enjoying his pained writhings.

    Consistency

    One of the flaws I think many skeptics share is a love of consistency. If we’ve done any studying of philosophy, or even practiced thinking, we tend to feel that “but you contradicted yourself!” is a winning point.

    Signs Of The Times

    Fascist boot-lickers seem to think they’re funny. But I just think they’re stupid.

    About That Nuclear War NATO May Be Trying To Start

    The US and its allies have set up a re-match for the Cuban Missile Crisis, which most people recognize as the time humanity was closest to a full-up nuclear war. Congratulations, American presidents!

    Letters of Marque

    That great big clueless jackass, Donald Trump, tended to blurt whatever was in the forefront of his mind. Picture, if you will, a conveyor belt of bad ideas attached to a microphone, and that’s a good model for how well Trump could think and keep a secret.

    No Wonder They Called Him “Lyin’ Ted”

    I get neo-fascist emails so that you don’t have to.
