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:)

The Trump Presidency - dismal and depressing

 Anything you'd like to add?  Yes many of us become grouchier with age but Trump is totally joyless.  Always looks angry.  Persecution complex.  Paranoid.  Never any humor or light-heartedness.  A joyless prick.  A political hemorrhoid.  No fun.  The Nutty Emperor. 

The last stage of the great MAGA breakup is now upon us.  My big Trumper neighbor finally scraped off his big TRUMP sticker on the back of his minivan.  Maybe got tired of the price of gas.  As people take off their "45/47" and other Trump bumper stickers off their vehicles wondering what was the final straw.  If I had to guess I'd say Trump's Reflecting Pool a-holism with Jeanine Pirro.  Maybe too ICE's new shocker gloves are too much for some people.  We can speculate.

Not to worry though.  There is still a strong pro-Trump oasis still up on the web which shall remain nameless whose masthead should read "proud to be among the 10%."

Political detox

 You have your news junkies your weather junkies and your political junkies.  My late uncle would park himself into a nice recliner and watch the 5 o'clock news then the 6 o'clock news which was simply a rehash of the 5 o'clock news.  Water main break in Brooklyn story 2X.  He was extremely well-informed.  You don't need to check the weather on your phone just ask an old person.  They'll tell you the exact time the rain is coming.  Politics.  I was away from blogging for about 3 years and when I came back people had to explain to me why Matt Gaetz is a bad person.  The political junkies let's say they had to go to detox.  No Trump news or politics for a whole week.  Read a mammal book.  They wouldn't survive.  "Trump soiled himself at a press conference."  No we got some honey badger videos for you.

Bibi got Trump into a real pickle with the Strait of Hormuz and Iran.  Sometimes best friends pull you down.  Bibi never met a war he didn't like.  I think Trump is looking for some kind of exit strategy but he has to save face.  Israel First been there done that.  Doesn't care about the average American.  Still waiting for my tariff rebate checks.

The straw that broke the MAGA'S back

 Wondering if Trump/Hegseth depleting our stockpiles will be enough to obliterate the remainder of his base what's left of it anyway.  'Tis an issue of national security.  I'm thinking even MAGA has its limits.  Not to worry though the POTUS says we still have massive amounts left.  Rule of Thumb - always take the opposite of what Trump says.

Let's get back to serious and normal governance. 

What would we do without Trump?

 We are all Trumpaholics right now.  It would be nice if we can get back to discussing real solutions to real problems.  The doddering old man is a diversion.  Can we somehow get back on track?
