Tim, have you ever thought about seeing a psychiatrist?

Why should he do that?  Because he recognizes trump to be treasonous, narcissistic Russian Obligate – and can’t bring himself to accept that as normal?

It’s funny your apparent hero trumpty-dumpty can’t get through a conversation without lying about anything and everything, because he can’t…[Read more]

LatinX – yeah sound like something Hollywood and Wall Street dreamt up.  Guess it stands for Americanized-Latin on steroids.

But I guess, you would have to try to blame that abortion on an ethnic group rather than on the producers.

I’ve seen sexy Latin dancing, never seen it done with a pole.

“global superpredator”  Hadn’t heard that term before, but it’s pretty damned accurate a description of what we have been doing, not just for the past one two hundred years, but the past 10, 15K worth of years.  We started small, but that was then, this is now.

That’s a dodge.   😉

Good video though.  I listened to the book a couple times years ago and then watched the video when YouTube suggested it.  But I don’t understand what it has to do with the preceding comments.  Other than the overall story of how societies rise and fall.  Apparently diseases had a bit to do with it according to some hist…[Read more]

So really it is not our country anymore.  It is his. He absconded with it right before our eyes.

Nah, it’s the oligarchs who absconded with our country right under our eye.  He’s just their tool and would be dumped in a moment were he not so successful in bullshitting stupid, intellectually lazy, emotional immature and angry people who seem to m…[Read more]

lest I derail this thread, W4U had some great thoughts and questions for Sree:

@ Sree

Let’s start with some fundamentals, ok?

We humans predict ourselves into existence. Which does not mean we have no existence other than our predictions.

Our predictions are subjective beliefs generated by our brains. Existence is an objective state of p…

Sir Widdershins.

Has a nice ring to it.

I don’t think trying to correct each other is a good approach in a cooperative effort to think things through.

I’ve always thought that constructive learning is dependent on us correcting each other.  We explain what we believe to the best of our knowledge and ex…[Read more]

It would take all 30 rockets at full power, burning 3000 pounds of fuel a second, for 30 days to accelerate the berg to 1 mile an hour.

3000*30*24*3600 = 777,600,000,000 pounds of jet fuel. To accelerate the iceberg 1 mile.  Oops, that’s for just one rocket engine.  Okay times another 30.

For an ocean voyage of what – 4, 5 thousand mil…[Read more]

I do expect there will be too much happening by the end of the century for it to be denied.

Bob, come on, where do you get your information from?

There’s too much happening now for manmade global warming to be denied.

But christ we got people seriously convincing themselves that the Earth is Flat and that there’s only one way to some…[Read more]

Tim I’m batting two for two.  On one side a life long Lakers fans with last weeks happenings.  On the other, my son-in-law is a life long BIG KC fan.  He had a couple friends over, I was able to wear one of his KC jerseys for the big game,.

KC starts strong with a score.  In the 2nd quarter, SF comes back.   During a close up of QB Mahones’ face…[Read more]

unlike the people of the past who had what they need and nothing else.

I don’t think a closer look at human evolution and travels reveals something quite different.  Hominids were “always” looking for better and learning and reaching outside the ‘box’ it found itself in, depending on the resources at their disposal, “always” crowding their…[Read more]

I mean the indivisible “human consciousness”

Can you define this “indivisible human consciousness”

Something indivisible cannot be broken up or divided: it’s rock solid.

The devil is in the details:

The Pacific Ocean is so acidic that it’s dissolving Dungeness crabs’ shells

God only knows how he would have stopped.

There’s a lot of this planet we can and will destroy, splitting African ain’t one of them.

As for 200 years out, sorry but guess you haven’t been paying much attention to what we’ve “accomplished” over the past 50 years.  🙁

Lets lay down some wagers: our…[Read more]

I don’t even like Bill Maher, nor do I think Democrats need to lie, they need to get militant about demanding truth, and honesty, and openly confronting and examining the mentality and immorality of Republican leaders face to face.

No need to add more lies to the mix.

But the video was fun, I’ll give him that.

You are too shy Tim

Truth, in the conventional sense

Pray tell what is the convention sense of truth or honesty?

Interesting seeing people appalled by the homeless believing that trump is a hero, or is that messiah?

That’s insane, he couldn’t care less for anyone but the ultra rich who can do something for him, and his entire life’s history is a testaments to that.

Guy respects no contracts, tells anyone whatever they want to hear, lies constantly because…[Read more]
