-I'm not sure what you consider a "wealthy" lifestyle to be.

big home
private school
country club

lol. You apparently know nothing about how the "wealthy" live.
Where is your yacht? No second home? No third home? No cabin in Tahoe? No condo in Florida? No apt in New York? No Las Vegas casino penthouses? No condos on the French Riveria? No fleet of cars and planes? No private apocalypse island?

Man. You are really just barely just getting by out there with your one home and "country club".

Poor things.

Starship Troopers. For Jesus!

BTW- when are we changing the name of the moon to America?

That's our fuggin moon! We got there first and we put our flag in it. So it's ours. Don't be putting yer stupid flags all over the moon err, America. It belongs to us.

How did mankind ever exist without therapists? LOL

They didn't. Obviously they were not licensed.

But I believe they were called shamans or priests.

Also people lived a lot closer together and were each other's "therapist".

Even in ancient China they had therapists but they were called philosophers, divine doctors, and bodywork practitioners (acupuncture etc).

The more you know..

"Not killing your children is now a conservative talking point?"

Not sure what that even means. Care to expound upon it? I bet you do.

It was a complex case but I'm sure you can boil it down to a few hateful talking points.

Re 34

It will be a new game for America to play after we are done with the Great American FAFO.

"Gotta catch em all!"

The pendulum swings like the pendulum do. One can only hope that it doesn't swing too far.. like it did this time.

He has to make enough money to pay for all the court cases he will be involved in after he leaves the protection of the White House.

Nothing bad can happen.

It can only good happen!

What are the odds that the orange chomo and USPS continue with the plans anyways?

The odds are pretty high.

It's easier to seek forgiveness than to ask permission.

Except in Trumpy's case as he has clearly said.. he prefers not to ask for forgiveness at all.

"Trump's personally costing America trillions of dollars."

Yup. He just admitted it. Though, of course, as is his nature, he tried to blame it on the Supremes.

Having Trumpy as a Guardrail is a big reason why the Singularity cannot be stopped.

The decisions we make ( or don't make) right now about it will decide our futures.

The next 2 years are critical and we have President Moron who is apparently worse than Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.

Being in way over his head already Trumpy will soon be looking for this guy named Not Sure to save us all from AI.

Got caught with his hand in the Russian cookie jar. (Again)

Accountability is coming.

Unfettered capitalism at its finest.

Profit before people. Greed is good.

It is the Way. The capitalist Way.

Why?

Retiring was the best (and most difficult) decision I have ever made. I easily added ten years to my life that day.

It sure is, especially in Ca. You know, where the housing/income ratio is blah blah blah ...

Things are horrible here in California. Save yourselves!

We just had a cruise ship stop at our town. (We haven't had cruise ships in years as the harbor was filled with silt and was too shallow. Until they dredged it.

Now "they" are here spending their money eating our food enjoy our weather and our fantastic sunsets and buying souvenirs and watching our shows. Now there is a line for everything!

Yes. It's awful.

Don't come.

because of foolish youtube videos and books that have no scientific facts supporting their claims are dangers to society at large.

I did a poor job of selling it but the Pandemic Prophet has some very interesting observations about this.

It's a documentary from France and is about their response to the pandemic and is mostly about this character "Didier Raoult" and how he had taken advantage of the fears of people during the beginnings of the pandemic to boost his own self image and how he had invested in and promoted chloroquine as a cure for Covid.

I had not heard of this character before as I was more focused on Americas response. But the parallels to what happened here are obvious. The story of it explains a lot about how Trumpy and maga have come to be. I was left with some very strange and uncomfortable feelings about the nature of humans and how they act like mobs and are controlled by those in power and explains a lot about what has also happened in America.

It's a real study in human nature and the negative effects of the unsocial media and political power during a global crisis or any local crisis for that matter.

And the parallels to what happened in America are very clear.
This does not bode well for our global response to the dangers facing us like AI and another reason the Singularity cannot be stopped.
