I am not a number. I am a free man.

Why do companies/nations go through the trouble of building these expensive dams on rivers?

Just build a raingutter in the river during summer and in the autumn it'll clog up within a week.

Trump Tells White Reporter Immigrants Don’t Have “Your Genetics”
I’m starting to think Hegseth doesn’t have as much of a handle on war as his chosen handle would lead you to believe.

Detailed explanation of how NASA reused the helicopter uplink on the Mars rover to help the rover reduce accumulated dead reckoning errors so it can drive much further before needing an external reassurance that it is where it thinks it is.

Includes some mention of how NASA reused SDRAM which was damaged by cosmic radiation.

An interesting read if you're looking for some technical news to distract from man-made problems on earth.

NASA’s Perseverance Now Autonomously Pinpoints Its Location on Mars - NASA

There is no GPS at the Red Planet, but a new technology called Mars Global Localization lets Perseverance determine precisely where it is — without human

Just when I was so tired from the relentless bullshitting…

Now it’s time for the bombing.

He said years ago how we’d win so much I be tired of winning. I’m so far past that now.

I guess I’d feel even worse if I were in another country who has this thrust upon them externally instead of internally.

Prez says he is sending a US ship to Greenland to give free health care there.

Please Newsom, arrange with the Greenland government to fly a 737 full of Americans who have no health care to Greenland so they can board the US ship and get some free health care from their own government.

I agree. NFL has made sort of blanket rulings about this stuff at times. But really there just should be a person who can decide on a case-by-case basis.

It should go for defense too. We don't want ot encourage defenders to try to catch a hail mary when just batting it down is smarter.

Five rears ago today, the Executive Branch sought to nullify the Constitutional powers of the Legislature.

We thought, at the end of that day, that it had failed.

Five years later its success is complete. Congress does not exercise the power of the purse, nor the authority over war, nor oversight of the Executive, nor the power to impeach.

There are no checks and balances—we have a unicameral government with two withered stumps of the other branches.

All the stuff Trump (and Vance or Rubio) has said after last night's invastion really just underscores how critical it is (to the entire world) to have someone with a cool head and restraint running the United States.

And the US doesn't have that at all right now.

I do not support the US going to war with another country over false pretenses.

It's amazing that no one in Washington sees fit to even attempt to do anything about the root problem which caused this.
