No mountain lions, but have run into bears on occasion and one mean Fisher Cat. I have a hunting dog that keeps bears away.Quote:

My thought of the day:
If the love of money is the root of all evil
And time is money
Is the love of time the root of all evil?
Bye Starvos, see you next year or so.
But time is also motion. Stop moving, and you might end up in not-time, and we all know what that is...(about to google 'Fisher cat').Quote:

Joe Rogan is an antivaxxer. He is not just asking questions any more than someone obsessed with the construction of gas chamber doors at Auschwitz is simply interested in carpentry. That should be obvious to all of his moron fans, many of whom are harassing Peter Hotez, an eminent doctor who fights infectious disease in developing countries and has saved countless lives. He received a death threat today which is supported by thousands of conspiracy nuts and other subliterate cousin fuckers on twitter. These ignoramuses are absolutely making this country unliveable.
And guess who else weighed in? https://www.yahoo.com/news/elon-musk...183306569.html
It's the standard strategy:
1. Make claims based on spurious evidence
2. Demand that experts spend time debating said claims
3. If they do, refuse to accept what they say
4. If they don't, claim that they have some motive for ignoring the issue
Its a disingenuous performance because the people who claim to be only seeking answers could easily find them if they bothered to do a bit of googling.
Thanks for the Lincoln Project videos which I had not seen before. But this is the problem with anyone who makes bombastic claims about themselves when they don't have the ability to support them, indeed, because of their inherent weakness, are easily exposed.Quote:

This is what used to be called Stalinism, it is alive and well in the Russian Federation, where Putin's domestic tactics when dealing with criticism is no different from Stalin's.Quote:

Truth does matter.
The facts of the case are stark -Johnson came onto national tv to tell us, more than once, to stay at home, to limit social interactions, to wear masks in public, when he and his staff in No 10 Downing St, and at Conservative Party HQ were mocking the very same instructions. That so much has been exposed has caused immense damage to the image of the Conservative Party, but I believe there is even more damaging material to come, not least in the Covid Enquiry that began in London this week.
Add in some of the rulings in States like Alabama that have prevented the implementation of bans on the medical treatment of 'Trans Kids', and the attempt to disbar John Eastman in California (he wanted to call as an 'expert witness' on election fraud, an accountant with no election experience [!]); and one can at least see that all is not lost, that the lunatics have not taken over the asylum.
