I hate subject matter that you're only allowed one position on

 Don't care much to discuss it.

The Lindsay Clancy murder trial in Massachusetts.  Lindsay Clancy all over the news.  She strangled to death her three young children.  The defense claims post-partum psychosis.  6th day of deliberations and jury still deadlocked.  The defense not guilty by reason of insanity is as old as the hills.  Nothing new and not being a true crime expert I'm guessing to be valid this is on the rare side.  If a person kills somebody say because they think a bear is attacking them and you can prove it in court ok.  I'd have to say obviously the holdup here is that some jurors want to convict and the others are leaning towards the post-partum psychosis defense.  Justice vs. social correctness perhaps.  Reading some commentary on the matter and the politically correct position becomes let her off you're a man and don't understand pregnancy and hormones.  Don't box me in I like to freely ponder.  Personally after all is said and done I would hold her to account.

Other subjects with the guardrails.  If you're a man and am against abortion that's automatically invalid.  Incidentally Gloria Steinem just passed.  I am intellectually against the death penalty but it's pointless to discuss as the vast majority are for it.  Executioner - weird career.  Is it a turn-on for women?  What makes somebody go into that field?  People divided on porn kind of an open field.  Same with cannabis.  Some topics you're only allowed one option others are free  for discussion.   Back in the day Phil Donahue mostly talked about sex then Oprah came along and respectabilzed the talk show thing.  I ramble......

The whole Trump topic is convoluted.  Hard to follow after awhile.

Whatever happened to having some Christian Brothers to take the edge off a rough day?

 So things pop up in my YouTube feed that I never searched for but because of the eccentric nature of the subject matter sometimes I click on.  One of these is this trendy and powerful  psychedelic drug known as DMT.  Rogan has guests on who passionately talk about it.  DeGrasse Tyson too.  They don't look like derelicts these people but respectable and articulate citizens who talk about their DMT trips.  They meet these entities they'll swear are not hallucinations but absolutely real.  A common one are these compassionate elves full of empathy who want to help.  I would say one way to test if they are real or not can they loan you 50K?  As for me I'm fine with a good pipe or the Christian Brothers.  I don't want to go to other realms I want to stay in Yonkers.  I guess some men got bored with the porn and the gaming.  One of the weirder subjects DMT.  Interestingly Trump doesn't take anything and says weird things.

Is there a Sasquatch connection?

Trumpanomics

 Understood Reaganomics.  Don't get Trumpanomics.  Tariff our allies.  Cause inflation to rise and call it a good thing.  Start a war with a country that can control a key shipping lane and thus negatively affect global markets.  Pillage another country for its oil and use it to replenish our Strategic Petroleum Reserves.  I'm no scholar of international law but sounds vaguely illegal.

Uncle Joe and now Trump.  Dementia patients running the Free World.  WTF are we doing?!?

Diary of a Madman

 In the latest Trump Follies Trump renames Lake Ontario Lake America.  Also there is purportedly a monster in Lake Champlain known as Champy.  Trumpy has a better ring to it no?  Rumor has it Trump plans to rename the Bermuda Triangle the American Triangle.  

Pipe smoking on the front porch.  Don't wanna smoke on the patio and bother everyone downstairs.  Do I have to put a No Soliciting sign on the front gate?  Can't smoke in peace.  You politely decline the offer and they keep talking.  Usually young people they send out.  A tad aggressive.  Must get a commission.  Do I have to smoke way down the backyard?  May have to build a little clubhouse for myself.  I thought those days were over.

People who worship the AI

 

Some of my blogs are born out of a good pipe smoking session. 

If even the AI is right about most things it's not right about everything.   These AI Overviews.  On vacation and at the library desktop today.  Just googling this and that.  Searched "rats as big as cats."  AI says this is an urban legend.  It's rare but many years ago I did see just this in my neighborhood a rat literally as big as a cat and no it wasn't a misidentification.  I know my mammals.  The computer extended my session so googled "feral cats" next.  AI says don't ever touch or pet one.  We owned a feral once.  Misty.  Had a litter in the yard next door and sometimes Misty would catch a squirrel and they all had a nice meal.  We eventually adopted her and took her to the vet to get her spayed.  She lived with us for awhile and then one day she decided to live with another family.  Probably too many cats in the house for her liking. To read the AI you'd think they all live in the deep woods.  They're actually more intelligent than that.

Speaking of the library using the public restroom shouldn't be a big deal right?  Went in the Men's Room and some homeless guy proceeded to pull his pants down and literally urinated all over the floor in the stall.  Quite a puddle.  Told the security guy and then went to a local park in the area to use their bathroom.  Ya gotta go ya gotta go.

What is the society coming to?

Trump IS right. The MMR vaccine is lethal

 I'm 62.5 now.  The day when I can apply for a property tax exemption from the City of Yonkers and finally start saving some money is not that far off.  Generally what happens with the MMR vaccine is this.  Let's say you got it in public school like I did it doesn't hit you until you're 85 or 92.  It's very slow-moving.

Practicing medicine without a license.  Would you trust Trump with a colonoscope? 

The Religion of Americanism

 Time is going real fast these days.  Sometimes I don't realize how many days have passed since my last blogpost.  The donuts are getting stale.

I think it fair to say that America is the greatest country on 🌎, always has been has animated most right-wing blogs.  Make no mistake it IS a religion.  Yet we have maybe the worst healthcare system in the world.  I don't mean in terms of the quality of the medical care but rather the financial aspect of it all.  People and families shouldn't go bankrupt, deplete their entire life savings just because a member has the misfortune of coming down with say cancer.  Hannity probably thinks astronomical medical bills are preferable because hey it's not socialism.  The faith system of Americanism says don't question it.

Do other countries feel they are the greatest country on Earth?  Does England?  They just go about their business.  Is it possible to question Americanism without being called oh I don't know a Communist?

Dicey subject:)
