Ugh....Once again Democrats fold. "Nice Guy" syndrome. I get the argument that if the govt. shuts down, Trump/Musk would keep it shut indefinitely. I just don't think it holds water. Scared of the boogey-man so you throw away all leverage. Dumb. Enabling. Gutless. www.cnn.com/2025/03/13/p...

In the spirit of staying away from politics for now: Finally saw War of the Rohirrim.... Makes me wonder about movie execs. A Great Idea matched with breath-taking animation and storyboards, but foiled by a mediocre storyline...it left me gasping for "what could have been"... Thoughts??? #lorfans

ok... Hear me out. A Lord of the Rings re-make....but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor.....

What concessions???? They were invaded without provocation. They're supposed to give gifts to the invaders now??? "No Balls" Rubio is going to be the weakest Secretary of State in our history... www.cnn.com/2025/03/10/p...

The Bankrupting of America......proposed 4.5 trillion tax cut. There is no way we can afford it...unless they eliminate Medicaid and Social Security. Jesus, what kind of Dickinsonian world do the Republicans want to live in??!! www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

It's not that they even think they can win this absurd lawsuit. It is about harassment and putting on a show for their idiot supporters. Theater of hate. apnews.com/article/targ...

I can not believe so many Americans support siding with a corrupt autocrat like Putin? Trump is Putin's stooge. It is all on full display now. A political sickness has enveloped our country. #Trump, #Putin, #noking apnews.com/article/russ...

Discovered this gem: Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash. A mesmerizing, nominal isekai with a melancholy ethos. Featuring underpowered, well developed characters that exude both sadness and hope. A slow-burning story I couldn't stop watching. And, oh my god....The Art!!!! Give it a try. #anime, #animeart

Wow! The amount of gaslighting here is unreal! How can no one see that our executive branch is in the pocket of Russia, doing their bidding; destroying our mechanics of governing and our relationship with our allies. Frightening. #fascism, #trump, #destroyingamerica www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/e...

Been on a quest to determine whether China is communist or not. Turns out it's a bit of "no" and "yes". China today is a bit hard to wrap one's head around without ethnocentrism (and poli-centrism?) getting in the way. Here is a good article for any other nerds out there! hbr.org/2021/05/what...

Let's post something fun: "The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic" has nothing to make it really stand out. However, I just LOVE this anime for some reason. And Rose has to be one of my favorite supporting characters of all time! Wish I could figure out why I like it so much.. #anime, #favoriteanime

So, let me get this straight. You are informed enough to be outraged over the plight of the Palestinians...but so ill informed that you thought Trump, of all people, would help them? That he would be a better choice to help them than Harris??? Ship of Fools. www.cnn.com/2025/02/05/u...

So I guess the AGENDA is creating as much chaos as quickly as possible by dismantling programs, services, and government structures while hiring incompetent directors who will only compound the problem because they have no will or skill of their own. The best Russian agent of all time.

So....is there an upside to AI ??? I get that it is about to destroy the arts and other uniquely human endeavors...but I have yet to see compelling arguments in favor of it. Seriously asking... www.bbc.com/news/article...

www.cnn.com/2025/01/24/u... ICE has become the epitome of " evil agency"..it will be a magnet for every yahoo, power tripping boot-licker to join.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Got into a disagreement with my daughter about AI being used in future video. I was dreaming of an even more immersive experience in games like Skyrim, with NPC's who "come to life" and build complex relationships with the players. She was of the opinion "voice-actors forever you inhuman hack!" #AI

Here is a rundown of Trump's executive orders so far. Hard to determine the biggest loser. Let's just say "every species on the planet!" apnews.com/article/what...
