Try to remember in 1963 the Dem Party had just shed the KKK and Nazi folks from their ranks, & the GOP was just starting to court those voters with dog whistle propaganda.

Before the 60s it was:

GOP=rich ppl who embraced progressive policies to get votes

Dems=lawyers, labor unions + everyone else

Unfortunately an entire bloc of US citizens has been radicalized to believe compassion is "gay/beta/cuck" behavior.

Trump followers (MAGAs) are not conservatives, they are a populist mob who have smeared the conservative label on themselves the way pack dogs roll in shit to hide their scent from prey.

The notion that every US citizen's values are either all liberal or all conservative is preposterous.

Just finished "The Diamond Age" by Neal Stephenson.

Many interesting threads, but not sure I understood how they intersected at the end ..?

I'll surf around for reviews and discussion now.

Can't stand the guy, but not into internalizing the subtext of the whole "alpha>beta" trip. Cooperation is good, and the best teams have a certain amount of alpha-beta fluidity.

And isn't the Brazil tariff just open meddling in affairs of a sovereign nation?

Wait until you dig into "post-millenialism" (often paired with prosperity gospel)... Basically, instead of Jesus bringing 1000 years of peace with the 2nd coming, it's now up to man to maintain a 1-world theocratic government for 1000 years before Jesus will return.

Thank you so much for responding! I see animations depicting chains of mRNA 'swimming' around... I get the chemical reaction energy, but still not grasping the source of locomotion within the cytoplasm.

I am performing a solo set in Madison WI tonight at the Atwood Theater, 8p showtime.

It's been awhile! I used to play here often.

Sometimes I'll catch the strangest research obsessions. Right now it's ribosomes.

Still can't find a reasonable explanation for what energy system drives the mRNA through the translation process or draws in the tRNA.

Brownian indeterminacy, is that a thing?

Free energy?

They are eliminating the competition for Russian mafia, plain as day.

It's impossible to deport to Russia, fyi.
