I think all political Party conventions should be subdued like this DNC one is. It focuses the reportage on the speeches and avoids the distractions of drama manufactured for the cameras, cheesy rah-rah stuff, protests happening outside and endless studio talking heads at a traditional convention. It’s not lke there are any surprises anymore at these things, the candidate isn’t going to reject their own nomination so we may as well just focus on the speeches and get it done with minimal padding.
One lesson from this whole Trump presidency and Covid 19 crisis: we need to figure out a way to make US States less dependent on the Federal Government. Far too much money, material and power has been concentrated in Federal hands. This may mean States have to raise taxes but so be it.
I don’t know if we can resurect the USPS in the 70 some remaining days before the US election. But I will vote. Even if I have to wear a Tyvek hazmat suit to the polls, I will vote, because Trump and the National Republican Death Cult must be stopped. Stopped cold.
The US Postal Service (USPS) is a “government corporation” that is supposed to be run like a business. That’s not worked out well. The USPS needs to go back to being a government agency, like the Defense Department and the US Park Service. Government is not a business.
Kamala Harris. Good, I’m glad it’s somebody younger, qualified but younger, because the 70 year olds have had their day and it’s time for somebody with some energy.
Okay, so maybe the pyramids of Egypt were not built built by aliens, but I know a couple of highway interchanges here in #Indiana that had to be designed and built by them.
Search for “water enhancer” on Amazon. I didn’t know they were a thing, but it’s a neat idea. Except it seems like everything is fruit flavors.
Do we understand that carrying firearms in a peaceful demonstration is not wise, nor is it normal?
Somebody told me Twitter is considering charging a fee for use and wanted to know if I would pay. I haven’t laughed so hard in months.
Pfft. To be an anti-vaxxer is so 1990’s. I want to know, is are you pro Alternating Current or anti Alternating Current? And what are the links between Alternating Current, Spontanious Human Combustion, Tele-Tubbies and the Kremlin?
Just looking through Twitter, there is a whole lot of totalitarian thinking going on there and it isn’t all just from the extreme Right either.
With the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic, we may have to tweek the Green New Deal (GND). Let’s Make Sure We Get the Green New Deal Right
Personally, I like the slow and dumb zombies over the faster than goose shit swarm zombies. How about you?
Remember the dateline in newspapers? It seems to have fallen out of favor but I wish newspapers and news websites would start using it again.
Everything is keto diet these days and I have no clue what that means. But “Kato” was the “Green Hornet’s” sidekick who was cooler than the Green Hornet himself. Vowels.
Crime TV: Murder by the Lake. Series: German with subtitles.
Murder by the Lake streams on Mhz Choice. I just finished off Series 2. Good series, interesting setting and characters.
9 out of 10 horses recommend oat milk for your morning cereal.
It’s Monday the 1st. Per the USPS, the 3-Day Priority Mail envelope will take 5 days to be delivered Est. on Friday the 5th. If it takes 5 days why call it 3 day Mail? It’s a long time for something to be delivered 25 miles away. #newmath
Isolation Department Report: New Norelco shaver blades delivered. Small, rotary, self distanced, celebrations are breaking out here at Galactic HQ.
My neighborhood is overrun with packs of feral children, and dogs. I think somebody has been dumping kids and dogs here over the winter. On nice days everybody is out walking their dogs and airing out the kids.
I’ve been sort of quiet (at least for me.) I can only say “Trump is a Fink,” so many different ways before I’m repeating myself.
Trump reminds me of Benito Mussolini. Just saying.
