To those who stand with Ukraine: Under age 18 Americans are a majority non-white. Do you think they care one bit for another white European border dispute? They don't think Europe is worth fighting for. Check your privilege.

President's Biden's bipartisan border bill was to hire 1000 more border guards and add about 500 immigration judges. That is, double down on a dysfunctional system. Trump shut the border down in two weeks. How un-American.

I use Grok3 a lot on X. Very useful in searching for data. However, there are some words you cannot use. Note the interaction in the attached graphic. It under scores the fact that these AI's are not self-aware or intelligent. They are just dumb algorithms, no matter what their designers say.

@bsky.app The UK is committed to net-zero by 2050. Here is the UK grid for this year. They have worked for years to get wind and solar on their grid. They emit 1% of the world's CO2. The grid is 1/3rd of the UK's power consumption. The UK has the world's most expensive electricity. Reflect.

If you want to find out about the troubled history of the Ivanpah concentrated solar plant, NPR will not be very useful. Neither is the NY Times. Reflect on how many things those media outlets do not talk about.

Let's have a conversation about belief. Name some beliefs that many hold but which have little objective evidence to support them. Here's one. More spending = better education. NY State now spends 36,000 per student in public schools with worsening objective educational outcomes.
