I always love your posts.
You're like a walking ad for voting conservative. You do more good by opening your trap than Charlie Kirk ever accomplished.

Yes, I am a "denier" of ridiculous panic.
Note your word-use's religious overtones. That's not accidental. "Denier" as if what you assert is irrefutable.
The world is generally great. It's a great time to be alive, generally speaking. Certainly some people are struggling, there's always some.
Young people are struggling, no doubt.
Gee, it couldn't be logical consequences of say:
- in order to save your friends' VC $ coming out of the dot.com era, you
- insist Fannie May and Freddie Mac open the taps on housing loans to huge numbers of worthless people who predictably default
- let government-selected and -promoted agencies classify these shit devices as AAA
- act shocked, shocked I say! when the entire sham collapses
- punish NOBODY, and certainly don't pull the official imprimatur from any of the rating agencies complicit in the scam
- use the crisis to vastly expand executive power (I mean, since OBVIOUSLY no Republican was going to ever win after Bush, right?); massage economic data to pretend interest rates are 0% for nearly a decade.
- OOOPS, not only a Republican but HITLER AND THE DEVIL COMBINED won instead of Hilary. Spend the next 4 years doing basically nothing but try to impeach him for
- Put in a senescent puppet on the throne for 4 years, print money as fast as you can, demand $15/hour for every shitty part time job in the country; act shocked, shocked I say when businesses close, trim jobs, and prices go up. High interest rates (esp when previous buyers are paying 2% or lower) absolutely shutter the home-turnover market, and fuck new home buyers*
*who are also shouldering $six digit college loans why? Because the 'everyone should go to college' federal money fountain of the 1990s+ caused college prices to go up 3x+ the rate of inflation - nice!
BOTH parties are complicit in this bullshit, by the way.
Your ability to turn every fucking thing into a political screed AND a 'sky is falling' narrative IS impressive though, I'll give you that.
Personally, I think the Orange Man is dumb as fuck, but I'd rather have his particular cadre of incompetents in charge than the VERY seasoned and professional grifters that were puppeting Mr Biden for 4 years (and, let's be honest, expected Obama to be followed by Her Majesty as well). Part of the reason he's won twice is that he's despised by the Insiders(tm) of BOTH PARTIES.
Better a government that can't shoot straight and has an oppositional media than a highly tuned corruption engine with a collusive media cheerfully telling us to stop asking questions, eat the bugs, and that there is no difference between men and women.
...given that (for example, this cool video) Mercury is emitting a comet-tail of sodium ions for millions of km as well.

It's pretty reasonable that ANY planet has a comparable 'tail' of whatever gasses/solids that can be easily knocked atomically from their atmosphere/surface, at whatever solar energies reach them, including earth spattering the moon with water vapor.
Or - hear me out - maybe Democrats' 4+ year efforts at CEASELESS lawfare against "orange hitler" have the teensiest bit overstepped rationality and needed to be routinely slapped down because the idea that some backwater district judge can block the constitutional duties/responsibilities for the President of the US nationwide at a whim is untenable and ridiculous?
Look, I get it. Slashdot is ideologically captured. The most vocal posters here insist there is no definition of woman, the earth is climate changing tomorrow into an uninhabitable wasteland, COVID was nigh unto the Black Death, and that Trump is building vast concentration camps for trans, queers, and everyone on Bluesky because he's a Nazi. You go girls.
Meanwhile, literally every single demographic of voters except (lol) white women is shifting inexorably right. To be clear, I genuinely don't believe they're shifting right, they're more or less staying where they were, but have gradually realized that the unhinged left is so repellent - and, we find, murderously psychotic - that they HAVE to vote against the insanity and are doing so.
So - you guys and gals and whatevers, just keep screeching! Keep screaming how oppressed you are and how terrible everything is. Free Gaza (but not the 50 hostages, amirite?)!
You're doing the Lord's work, just not perhaps the way you think you are.
That's "fantastically expensive advanced carbon-fiber rock" you insensitive clod.
And the Eisenhower is itself a bit of a trailer queen, so they are a matched set.
I'm glad they're promoting this.
We need to celebrate excellence again; astronauts should be our best and brightest.
I wish them all the success in (& outside of) the world.
My solution is not giving a shit about the giant load of crap that is climate change and that every morning we invent a new thing to be terrified about.
There is no crisis in wildfires.
There is certainly no crisis in the 'threat' of wildfire smoke.
Don't like it? Move away from forests. Nobody in the Bahamas suffers from wildfire smoke.
Why is the world in general less important to you than the US you ethnocentric prick?
Global area burned and wildfire emissions have fallen steadily since the 1930s.

But by all means, don't let me interrupt your insistence the sky is falling.
He wasn't the one pissing himself to flee Bagram though, was he?
... I'm more concerned about how *astonishingly* fucking stupid Google as an organization must be that nobody along the way from dev to testing to implementation apparently considered this?
This isn't me writing some macro in Excel that doesn't work. This is Google. 50? 100?
Just say what you mean.
Democrats are the party of the wealthy now, btw.

You had mail. Paul read it, so ask him what it said.
