So, yeah, don't be surprised on election night.

Thank you for sharing all that. I won't argue with your feelings as they are important. But I feel like it does deserve a response.

We have lost our standing in the world. And it may take decades to get it back. We have been in unwinnable wars before. And. We survived them. We did not get here overnight and will obviously take time to recover. If we decide to as a people.

It is up to the People.

And. It's always been the darkest just before the dawn.

But just know that after watching Americans vote for the Great American FAFO, even after knowing full well who and what Trumpy is, nothing will really ever "surprise" me again.

Even the upcoming "October Surprise", which should be here any minute now, won't "surprise" me.

But the thing is I cannot bet against America. History is my guide there. As I said and you can believe it or not but America has been thru worse times and somehow managed to emerge a better stronger and more perfect Union. Even if only slightly.

And then there is AI. Which I believe in the next two years may change everything. So I almost feel like none of these things Trumpy is trying to do that we currently worry about will even matter in less than two years because the Singularity is so near and will all be Overcome By Events.

So. My advice is as always... Hang in there baby. The Times they are a Changing. And remember when Pandora's box, which we were clearly told by the Gods not to open, gets opened again for AI the last thing to come out is always Hope. And that was thoughtful and kind of the Gods to put Hope in there too don't you think?

Powerful planetary wave takes aim at West Coast as El Nino rages

Scientists warned for months that the oceanic Kelvin waves associated with El Nino could bring higher sea levels and far-reaching impacts.

An oceanic Kelvin wave, a kind of slow-moving planetary wave that carries energy and warm water across vast distances, is arriving along the California coast, said Daniel Swain, a climate scientist with the University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources.

"Sea levels are going to be noticeably higher than usual," Swain said.

The wave comes amid a flurry of other oddities brought on by the strong El Nino: Warmer water temperatures along portions of the California coast, unusual sightings of sea life typically seen in warmer waters and a hyperactive hurricane season in the Pacific.

One hurricane after another is sending large swells from far offshore that are battering Southern California beaches with large waves and rough surf. The effects are compounded by climate change-induced sea level rise and the higher water levels arriving with El Nino. The last batch of swells coincided with king tides, seasonal high tides during full moons that are among the highest tides of the year.

When I lived across the state line, a stupid bitch in Tennessee killed her little daughter. They found the remains months later on her family's property.

The case was in the news regularly for years and still is. Even today.

My posting history shows I'm generally a peaceful dude, the occasional Free Luigi comment notwithstanding.

But if Tennessee is frying women, I hope they keep the griddle hot for Megan Boswell.
