    I thought the strange map joke might have to do with Atlantis.

    you know,

    during mr trump’s first term, i wasn’t worried about fascism or demagoguery. i just thought he wanted to TRANSFORM AMERICA INTO A GIANT HUNGARIAN RESTAURANT.

    you know, gold and red velvet and such.

    but now,

    he wants to change the WHOLE WORLD INTO A GIANT GOLDEN CORRAL.

    no thanks.

    “Trump dubbed the missile defense system – which the order says would be designed to protect the U.S. homeland from ballistic, hypersonic, advanced cruise missiles, and other new aerial threats – the “U.S. Iron Dome” after the highly successful Israeli conventional missile defense system.”

    Highly successful? How did those Houthi missiles get in, then? Or are they only successful against outdated conventional missiles?

    This reboot of Reagan’s Star Wars seems like it might just continue feeding the MIC for years without much to show for it in the end.

    Listenbourg. Note the date:
    https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/002/470/052/0d5.jpg

    Listenbourg is a fictional European country bordering Portugal and Spain created by Twitter user @gaspardooo in October 2022. The country’s name was coined in a now-viral post that the user made on October 30th of that year, sharing a map with a new country photoshopped on it, inspiring memes and discussions about the fictional country over the following days, with some trying to claim it’s real.
    https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/listenbourg#fn4

    In 2022, NBC News had an article about it:

    Listenbourg is the hottest country on social media right now. The catch? It doesn’t exist.
    After going viral on Twitter, the craze spread to TikTok where the hashtag “#Listenbourg” has more than 75 million views and countless videos dedicated to the made-up land.

    Getting back to this A.I. thing for a moment ….

    That’s a joke, by the way. AI is not a “momentary” subject by any stretch of the imagination. It’s the rest of our lives, however brief and exciting those lives may end up being.

    Look, for a long LONG time (for example, since Jules Vern in 1870 and Buck Rogers in 1929) the practical uses of A.I. or the part it could play in the daily lives of ordinary plebes like thee and me, amounted in total to about ZILCH. It was the stuff of Sci Fi for the masses and evil secret government conspiracies for the Elites.

    That was about it, until a few days ago (days? weeks? months? what difference does THAT make?)

    It’s different now. Like IMMEASURABLY different. YOU (yeah, the person reading this, can now (as in, right now at this moment if you want) settle down with your choice from DOZENS of interactive A.I. systems. to design, build and use practically anything you and your new A.I., buddy can dream up ……….and the A.I. part of that joint venture will be virtually FREE ( under a C note absolute max). You could spend more of course, if you’re an idiot and/or in a big hurry. But if you can buy a bicycle then you can buy all the AI you’ll ever need in a life time.

    The only thing standing between you and the super-gizmo or fabulous wealth you always wanted is your will and decision to go do it. If it involves expensive materials (like a Tesla car or Mars rocket) then the physical building aspect of the project might need more funding, but Hey! The A.I. system can guide you step by step to acquire that, too!

    See where this is going?

    Me neither, but I can see far enough to know that it’s chaotic.

    Kennedy got to explain himself better today, and Sanders took a more conciliatory tone. I think he irritated some supporters yesterday with his attack on “onesies” being sold by Children’s Health Defense

    COMBATING ANTI-SEMITISM IN THE UNITED STATES: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order to Combat Anti-Semitism.

    Expanding on his Executive Order 13899, President Trump’s new Order takes forceful and unprecedented steps to marshal all Federal resources to combat the explosion of anti-Semitism on our campuses and in our streets since October 7, 2023.
    Every Federal executive department and agency leader will review and report to the White House within sixty days on all criminal and civil authorities and actions available for fighting anti-Semitism.
    Immediate action will be taken by the Department of Justice to protect law and order, quell pro-Hamas vandalism and intimidation, and investigate and punish anti-Jewish racism in leftist, anti-American colleges and universities.
    The Order demands the removal of resident aliens who violate our laws.

    It is so easy to see events such as the air crash in DC as politically influenced (and influential) events, and lose sight of the actually important aspect of the tragedy, which is that 67 people have died and are now gone from the lives of those around them.

    For each of those crash victims there are surviving family and friends who now face the bleak future of going on through the rest of their lives without their dearest loved ones. We must do what we can to help these folks, because their lives just became immeasurably harder than they were before.

    Anyone reading this who has experienced the unexpected loss of a loved one knows what I am talking about. It is terrible. I would not wish it upon my worst enemy. The survivors need and deserve our help, in whatever way we can, even if that is limited to just understanding and respecting what they are going through.

    Staffing was ‘not normal’ in the air traffic control tower at Washington’s Reagan National Airport

    That headline is just begging for a meme photo of the staff, but it apparently means they were short-staffed and “one air traffic controller was working two positions at the time of the crash”.

    That’s according to a report by the Federal Aviation Administration that was obtained by The Associated Press.

    The report says one air traffic controller was working two positions at the time of the crash.

    “The position configuration was not normal for the time of day and volume of traffic,” the report says.

    DEI ATC:

    Since Trump flies a lot, and from the tone of Trump’s comment on the crash today, he knows a bit more than the average (but probably less than the Russian bear) bear about ATC.
    Could ATC be short staffed everywhere because it is taking much longer to train DEI candidates?

    It’s just a meme, you’ve already found it. As a non sequitur, I thought it was funny contrast to the non stop “duhMericans” they post every day — as if every other country isn’t dumber. I mean, clearly the dumbest nation of the last 10 years must be Germany, followed by Britain. No one in the last 100 years can top them.

    I suppose the disorientation could have psychological effects, but that’s all academic as obviously no one meant it originally nor meant it when reposted. Good recommendation not to see conspiracies or intent when there may be none.

    The thought of Trump is the same: Oh, so we’re going to only hire and elect leaders who have never done anything wrong. M—kay…. Your point is of course well taken: HOW wrong? How much can we tolerate? Wellllllll….let’s see, we have the issue of being run by the most powerful, entrenched, scheming, violent, worldwide mafia in the history of the universe, who quite obviously would not only kill anyone who opposes them for sport — as a matter of course — but also kill everyone on earth that is NOT opposing them.

    …So obviously we need most a Policeman made up of half Andy Griffith and half Jimmy Stewart. You know, maybe with one bullet in his gun.

    How about no? How about we hire George Patton and John Wick and open up the armory in the Matrix and tell them to do whatever they feel like?

    The only issue is like General MacArthur, we have to have them obey orders, desist, and demobilize when we say. We certainly have no problem with that with Trump. Our present problem remains getting ENOUGH power to arrest and run helicopters into all the suspects, not that he has too much power or authorization. –From the government, the media, the army, or the people.

    So again, what’s your plan? We hire the only person who never dun wrong, AND has no experience as a bare knuckle street brawler who laughs at being knee-deep in blood and wants to do it tomorrow, and send them out against nobody BUT hundreds of nuclear-armed bio-billionaires who do.

    We had that: he was called Ron Paul. You saw what happened, and what the American response was. We can keep sending Libertarian candidates and Ralph Nader up there if you want. It’s your vote.

    obviously mr trump and all the ones before and the sundry presiwannabers and mr musk and mr vance-a-lot are not

    murderers (i do not want to write that word ever again)

    in the sense of “america’s most wanted!”,

    and i doubt the above named would consider

    their actions as “murder”.

    it’s all for america, or, freedamn!, or, to quote cj, or whatever,

    so it’s just fine and oops and sorry and and and

    ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

    it is extremely sad sad sad that my family (and yours dear reader) has to coexist with so many humans who believe that their material needs supersede the rights of others to simply maintain their viscera intact.

    why we want to explore the stars before we’ve even figured out how to keep this place neat and tidy is a mystery to me.

    an’na human gonna human.

    so (leaving aside that for just the little girl alone he should be “due processed long and hard”,

    as to mr trump specifically, everything comes down to warp speed.

    ¿was he too dumb?

    ¿was he complicit?

    Culture is Upstream from Politics

    The Woke Perversion was every bit as damaging as any military OP ever run on Duh’merica.

    The Information Space was captured and clusterfucked over, again and again and again under the Demonrats and their Rino ass lickers.

    This damage won’t correct itself for several generations, by that time Duh’merica will not exist as anything more than a 7/11 masquerading as a ‘country’.

    uh, hair dye, however nasty, does not contain sv40 promoter sequences, nor the myriad other toxins found in the injections brought to you by “operation warp speed”, a military op run on duh’worldica.

    the “woke perversion” is just a boil on the bubbling ooze, engendered their to keep you picking at the scab while another school bus crashes due to a “medical emergency”.
