Study for knowledge & reflect for understanding. As these increase so may tolerance, compassion & growth as a force for good.

I can't get over the difference in how he looks in the oval office vs how he looks when he is on stage ranting ... its like his dementia has 2 different speeds.

Hopefully lightning strikes ...

Condolences for your loss. (My sister's best friend had the same experience, we both miss Carol as he was a great person.)

I had a choir colleague. About 50 he was diagnosed w tongue/throat cancer, he hoped to recover, he didn't.

I'm not sexually active. Was too old to get as a kid. Too old for insurance to cover as I was >40. I paid out of pocket to get it.

Here boys & girls both get it now as a matter of course.

Three investigations and cleared?

Coverup?

Athletic Dir Warde Manuel needs to go.

I am deadly serious when I say that any liberal Project 2028 people should be taking names of the civil servants who go way past their authority to do stuff like this.

That is very much not me saying that normal employees following bad orders should be fired. But there’s a line. This crosses it.
That should be a career ending act of corruption

Also: Re per cap, Switzerland in 2nd behind USA but at least Swiss are at/near the top of life expectancy heap.

Re homelessness, insightful call bc other G20 nations have good safety nets. But even if you don’t immediately die from it, it has to shave years and COD will be attributed to smth else.

It’s hard but eventually necessary.

Leave room for them to return if they come bearing an attitude of contrition and a clear change in outlook.

We need a massive progressive reform wave.

I’ve not insisted anything. I’ve only pointed out some relationships in the data.
December 12, 2025 at 7:10 PM
Full agree.

Sorry to hear.

(This is same thing which this week killed author Sophie Kinsella ca 2 years after diagnosis. Same thing McCain died of).

He's committed so many, that we almost need a clock that can handle big numbers like the national debt clock.

If this is true, then 3 comments:
1. WTF is wrong with him?
2. So disappointed in him.
3. I'll take @theliamnissan.bsky.social over Liam Neeson every day.

Ok, so heart disease is 20% of the problem. If there were no gun deaths, or realistically, G20 per capital gun deaths, then heart would have a much bigger share than 20%.
December 12, 2025 at 2:22 PM
Of course they are, but these other G20-ish countries don't have to deal with a rising epidemic of gun deaths.
December 12, 2025 at 2:21 PM
I think they mean the declining life expectancy is due to increasing gun and car deaths. But I may be mistaken.

Oh Mark, I am disappointed in you deploying the F.U.D.

If RFK were running it, and fucking it up, there would be even bigger protest movements than No Kings.

How do we get from A to B without wringing hands?

That's literally what supposedly creative minds and leadership halos like yours are for !

Yep, a vicious cycle adopted years ago by the GOP well illustrated by this jackass:

Grover Norquist, a conservative lobbyist, famously said he wants to reduce the government to a size "where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub".

Hanging in! (Crazy world, getting incrementally worse. But if the sociopathic criminals, their sycophants and supplicants don't burn it down, & forces of democracy hold fast, it almost feels like the fascist tide is peaking. Things will get a bit worse but overreach, rejection and collapse loom).

We are flying blind because some key instruments we are used to using are corrupted.

That’s a pretty thin article.

Should have given a paragraph to iCloud+ Private relay. It does much of what a vpn does and it’s already included with the lowest tier of paid storage of iCloud+ for 1$/mo.

Shitty company led by shitty weird people.

I kicked Facebook and all it’s saying subsidiaries to the curb in 2015.

Have never regretted it.

I used to make screenshots of the nonsense Siri used think I was saying. Sometimes very funny.

OTOH it happened so often it lost its novelty.
