Rachel — you didn’t win the Transhumanist Party presidential nomination. Vermin Supreme didn’t win the Libertarian Party presidential nomination.
Any chance that the two of you might team up for the 2020 election, so that it gets all of the love and affection that it deserves?

NOTES FROM LIFE, ETC.
- Went on a date at the Bosque Park [4100 Montano NW, Albuquerque, New Mexico], and had a great time.
Neither one of us wore anything resembling a mask. In fact, during the 90 minutes I was there, I only saw two (2) people wearing masks of any kind, out of about 20-20 people in total.

Love how her necklace in the photo looks like it was made from fishing bobbers.

And her dress (?) looks like it was cut from a sofa left on the curb.

Apparently, in Minneapolis, being accused of forgery warrants an ad hoc curbside death penalty.
Back in 2014, James Boyd was summarily executed in the Foothills of Albuquerque for the crime of illegal camping.
Why should taxpayers be on the hook for paying the resulting settlements from these incidents?
How much longer would these atrocities continue if the damages to be paid were to be paid from the pension accounts of the officers involved, followed by the general police pension fund?

*LOOK* at this image, a murder in progress, a human being who did nothing that deserved death, the face of a human being tortured to death by agents of the government in uniform, who claim to be doing this *IN YOUR NAME*.
You should be outraged by this murder.
Please take a moment to do the least you can:

Have fun changing road wheels and track segments :)
Also note that you’ll probably need at least two other people to operate it with you — a driver, gunner and loader.

I looked it up on the Google Play Store, and you’re not the only one to dislike it. No, I didn’t install it, nor do I have any plans to install it.
What was a bit depressing were the reviews from people saying that “everyone needs to install it and use it.”
I’m wondering if Google will sneak this onto our phones by including it in one of the OS updates for Android.
Apple has already included it as part of iOS 13.5.

Apparently, you’ll have to turn off auotmatic updates for your iPhone to stop them sneaking it in.
[Thanks to True Edjillo for the tip there about iOS 13.5]

Any “state of emergency” lasting longer than a month should be required to be ratified by two-thirds (if not three quarters) of the registered electorate.

I support the Second Amendment, but . . . .
But . . . .
Even if it were repealed tomorrow, by unanimous vote of the full U.S. House, the full U.S. Senate, and all fifty State Legislatures, the right that it was written and ratified to protect, the pre-existing, civil, individual human right to own and carry weapons for defense of self, family and community, doesn’t go away one bit.
In fact, that’s precisely the sort of situation when you need to be sufficiently equipped and proficient to exercise that right against all aggressors.

The way I see it, they are collapsing the economy in order to blame Trump for that collapse.

Brad Torgerson — Exactly why Babylon 5, Andromeda, Earth: Final Conflict, the Expanse and the 2003 reboot of Battlestar Galactica were way better than Star Trek in its devolved state.

From the article:
“The Democratic governor said that approved spending increases will have to be slowed due to a drop of up to $2.4 billion in estimated revenue levels, but that federal stimulus funds and state cash reserves could help the state avoid layoffs and furloughs of state workers and teachers.”
G-ds forbid that any state employees should lose any income because of the COVID-19 panic.
Who then speaks for the private sector workers who were laid off of furloughed, and are struggling to make ends meet?
Certainly NOT the Maximum Loony Grandstander AKA Governor Chipmunk.

I grew up watching Original Series re-runs on WPIX-11 and then the original run of The Next Generation on WTXF-29 while living in Willow Grove, PA. At the same time. I was reading the novels from Pocket Books and the comics from DC (I still have those comics and novels).
