Are you sure that it is not a bullshit superhighway? The noise to information ratio is pretty bad. And then there is the problem of judging the information. On BlueSky I had one man completely agree with me and start following and another say that I was full of crap and embarrassing myself on the same subject. I think the super highway is mostly good but I read a lot before it existed. I just regret the time wasted wading through obvious bullshit. .

I would be more inclined to say deepen poverty than cause poverty. .

Scary Experiment All Fall Down An experiment started by an imbecile who does not have a clue. .

I had someone getting on my case on BlueSky because I said it would not matter. Just a blip on the corporate cash flow! .

I do not think Ukraine and Europe will allow any DEAL to go through. Trump will just make things worse with Europe, Canada and Mexico. I have been thinking of March 1st as a deadline for the US military to decide on "Domestic Enemy" qualification and strategy. .

Was he? His army is falling apart along with his economy. Around one million Russian young men have left the country and probably not coming back. I am hearing 200,000 dead out of 500,000 casualties. Putin has done to Russia what Trump is doing too the US. Wrecking the place though Trump is more obviously stupid. I am not sure what Putin wanted. Peace would just give him different problems than war.

What I find peculiar in all this talk about reading is very little mention of finding out what individual kids might like to read, and the Information Density of the reading material. I accidentally started reading science fiction in 4th grade. I have since had people point out to me that it was written by White Men. But how many Black Americans want to do without technology and how much do Black Americans know about it. Now there is free stuff but I have had TEACHERS tell me that they never heard of Project Gutenberg.

OK!

I have not read about Buddhism since some world religions class in high school. I would consider it a religion but with a stronger personal philosophical style than Christianity or Islam. No hierarchical authority. I just thought of yoga as a physical exercise system but I have not investigated it at all.

Death Valley! .

An interesting/informative video: "GDP" is a lie. It does not mention Net Domestic Product, Planned Obsolescence and the Depreciation of Consumer Garbage. 3.2K vus .

I presume that if there is a "God" then He/She/It has a lower opinion of religion than I do.

The Laws of Physics do not care about AnyBody. We are all stuck on One Planet. The Dumb White people have to figure out when the "Smart" White people are talking BullShit!

A CPA told me that he was OK with mandatory access as long it was not done until after he retired in Six Years. Double entry accounting is only SEVEN HUNDRED YEARS old. It ain't complicated, it is just tedious. Large organizations started programming computers to do double-entry accounting in the 1950s. Wealth is Net Worth not Cash Flow. How many Democrats have a Net Worth over $500,000? A $300,000 house in the suburbs with less than 30% equity is not wealth. It is just higher up on the treadmill. How many people who Vote Republican have that much Net Worth? [Quote] Bottom 50% of households As of 2023, the bottom 50% of households in the United States owned about 2.6% of the country's wealth The bottom 50% of households own little to no corporate stock [/quote] How many in the bottom 50% regard themselves as Republicans? .

The Republicans are on the side of the Wealthy and the Democrats pretend to be on the side of the non-Wealthy. Of course we do not hear any rich Black people suggesting mandatory accounting at home. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-m&sca_esv=1d0cabc81ac55904&q=The+Accounting+Game+PDF&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjT9pPVlriLAxVTVTABHfBYAdIQ1QJ6BAgjEAE&biw=116&bih=200&dpr=3.53

How often are people who win Big Lotteries Broke in a few years. Without accounting/money management skills how much good will the reparations be, for how long?

Why does anybody give a shit about an apology? Why are some people paying other people to live on the planet? We have an Economic Power Game to deal with. Planned Obsolescence is just high technology share cropping. .

What does that man use for a brain? There is a book "Game of Nations" by Miles Copeland where global politics is presented as a giant chessboard but the leaders of other countries are not portrayed as having wooden brains. Trump acts like everybody is stupid but him no matter how times he gets smacked down. Like he is the ultimate example of The Old Dog. .

What kind of madness has to happen to get rid of this fool?

But DEI caused a midair collision that hasn't happened in 16 years! The Preztard said so. He can't be right....er, I mean wrong. .

How far off the rails can this train get?

It was not DEI hires, it was Stable Genius firings: T This cannot possibly be an example of stupidity. .

I guess Republicans have beaten Democrats at this:

And in the non-White international sphere.
