Heard today on some news blog that humans have neolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. What a perfect summary.
Loop this tape forward a couple of 100 million years, and assuming humankind survives in some fashion, perhaps we will have medieval emotions, godlike insitutions, and neolithic technology? Sounds intriguing tbqh

SCOTUS rises and a pall of sickening revulsion settles across the land.

I'm no expert on proper diction for the dead, but ghoul sounds right!

FACTS:

Time to cancel the FIFA WorldCup in the United States while this worthless #TACOKrasnov is in office, or even alive. And the Olympics? You must be kidding, smdh

Paging Senator John Thune, or whichever Senator is wearing the bigboy pants of the Majority Leader these days? I suspect Thune's pants are pretty much all soiled. What a disgrace to the Senate, the country and his home state of South Duhkota where he never distinguished himself other than perpetually being on the tit of the state Republican Party and the taxpayers in exchange for his Silent Sam demeanor. The dude is a disgrace.
#SenatorThuneisaShamSenator, embarrassing af.

Just for the record, with all the retconning Republicans are so good at, Elon Musk hated us, the people, his market, way, way before we hated him. But we'll catch up, just you wait Elmo!

It's got to be said. If you own a Tesla, are shopping for a Tesla, thinking of buying a Tesla, or are even a trader in Tesla stock, you are aiding and abetting the destruction of our government, our country, and our democracy. You are also contributing to the murder of Ukrainians by Putin. And of course, you are all a defacto Putin apologist, because everything Elon Musk is doing is in support of taking down the USA and partnering with Putin for world domination. Sounds extreme, because it is.

fwiw, in my neighborhood of mostly up and comers I'm proud to say we have zero Teslas. A couple of blocks over there's a dork with a white Nazitruck. It's even uglier up close than in the pictures. Plenty of EVs and hybrids and tons of e-bikes, but people around these parts seem to know better than to go Tesla, or maybe we just can't afford them!

@palin

does it mean something like this?

Waiting til Kristi Noem, the botox cowgirl former governor of South Dakota, remember SOUTH DAKOTA, &now head of the Department of Homeland Security, using the combined force of both positions finally stands up for South Dakota and makes North Dakota its colony, who needs 2 Dakotas anyway, and can you really trust those North Dakotans, they stole all of South Dakota's oil and they've got dams on the Missouri, what right is that of North Dakotas anyway. Come on NOEM, Make South Dakota Great Again

Fun fact: I actually met and shook J Edgar Hoover's hand back in the winter of 1972. He sat there like a toad, and as I approached in a long line of kids, it felt surreal. My hand briefly touched his outstretched mitt, and then we were off, back on the bus. He would be dead 3 or 4 months later
* I can imagine some few kids today might read one of Kash's books, or meet him and would feel this weirdness?
* *Also, my aunt, only recently passed, worked as one of Hoover's secretaries for many years!

To the best of my knowledge, Leonard Peltier has still not been released. I'm seeing it happens Tuesday. I pray. With our descendance into hell by #PresidentMusk, who really knows what happens tomorrow or the next day.
Pray for Peltier's release. It's been 50 years he's been imprisoned. He's 80 something. Let him take his last breaths as a mostly free man in his Native Lands.
Do the right thing.
Here's a great article about a film about his case, at Sundance.

I've gone from hypercritical to sympathetic of #NPR lately as it seems they're displaying signs of Stockholm Syndrome and are just plain clueless? Listened to first hour this morning. Musk's name was not even mentioned til top of 2nd hour and then only 4 Twitter issues. FFS, purge at FBI, Purge at FAA (airline disaster ensues), Data theft at both Treasury and OPM, and oh yeah, Health Care data stole for the entire population and more. WTF? Don't ask NPR, heck didn't mention threat to itself?

My wife &daughter are scientists who work with/rely on NIH, and similar health care agencies. My son depends on Medicaid due to being disabled with seizure disorders and more, I'm on Social Security, and I love the Grand Canyon too. All of which is to say that we depend for our livelihoods, as well as to enjoy the amazing natural wonders which are made possible and abundant by our government working. All of this is threatened by an illegal African immigrant. This must stop!
#DeportElonMuskNOW

Now they are taking down the ADA Accommodations pages at US government agencies, violating the American w Disabilities Act, signed by Ronald Reagan. Sure it violates the law. It also violates the implicit social contract between all these pro-life Republican MAGAts and me as I push my boys' wheelchair to the medical office complex where I search for the wheelchair access. ffs people is this who these people are? Raging MAGAts who think life is so cheap we should just disappear? Yep
