Two psychics run into each other, one says to the other, "well you seem to be doing fine. How am I?"

I'd also like to point out that there is Elvisology, and there is Numerology, but there is also Elvisnumerology, the study of numbers as they relate to Elvis. Yeah, I had an Elvis phase.

Rep. AOC Speaks at TU Berlin on The Future of U.S. Politics
YouTube video by RepAOC Rep. AOC Speaks at TU Berlin on The Future of U.S. Politics

You know how so many men, and some women, call AOC stupid? It's only because they can't hear women. It's like when the adults are talking in the Peanuts cartoons. Anyway, contrast this to the white nationalist speech that little Marco gave and decide which world you want.

Opinion | Trump Is Raising Billions in Federal Funds. That’s Not a Good Thing.

Capturing the purse and having no accountability is one of the earmarks of authoritarians. Why the republicans were so willing to relinquish the power of Congress to be part of the MAGA regime will be something we'll have to examine in the tribunals.

Wow, Molly Ringwald. She's braver than every single CEO in America right now. She's willing to come out and state the obvious, put herself on the line. Tim Cook isn't. Jamie Dimon isn't, Jensen Huang isn't. None of them. Cowards, maybe they prefer fascism.

Chris Madel ends GOP bid for governor, says he can’t support federal β€˜retribution’ against Minnesota His exit comes as some other Republicans have started to distance themselves from the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in the state.

You'd think some of them were bound to blink. It's amazing how lock-step they generally are. Oh, shit, I made another Nazi reference. So hard not to.

I had written this one last week, before yesterday's murder. I didn't revise it to add the supporting data we have now, but it's still relevant.

Elon Musk was at Davos yesterday, where he made this joke, for real.

"I just heard about the Board of Peace. Is that spelled p i e c e, like a little piece of Greenland, or a little piece of Venezuela?" And the crowd laughed.

Ha Ha Ha Ha, Nazis are funny.

Women's March - 2017 - Chicago The misogynist and sexist nature, and the policy proposals put forth, in the 2016 presidential election spurred women's marches across the globe. It was the largest single day protest in U.S. history.

9 Years, and we're still marching. The kids in these photos are teens and young adults now. How long are we going to keep failing them?

Trump is raving like a madman at Davos, citing delusional fantasies while threatening and horrifying our allies. Tens of millions of Americans accept this. Mindblowing.

But where are the adults? This only ends in violence and economic collapse. Do they not know that? Are they as insane as Trump?

Naomi Klein & Astra Taylor: Are We Entering β€œEnd Times Fascism”?
YouTube video by Laura Flanders & Friends Naomi Klein & Astra Taylor: Are We Entering β€œEnd Times Fascism”?

I really find YouTube thumbnails to be disappointing, but this 2025 interview explains how our modern-day oligarchs, led by Silicon Valley in America, are more dangerous than ever. They even get to the root of the problem, our concept that man has dominion over the planet.

The capitalist mindset

We lost all of the 90's arguments about consumerism and crass commercialization to the detriment of the world, but maybe they're coming back. I miss those conversations being much more prevalent than they are today.

So all of Chicago is a no-fly zone for drones for the next two weeks. For special security reasons.

I verified this on the FAA website, I'm a licensed drone operator, and I've never seen the whole city blacked out before.
