Another very good point. It’s consistent with political expediency: it applies to us as long as it helps us; it applies to you only if it hurts you. Consistent double standards.
2004: « Can a robot write a symphony? Can a robot turn a canvas into a beautiful masterpiece? » - asks the detective in iRobot, which takes place in 2035
2026: « Yes, to both questions. And it happened ten years before 2035. »
Pretty frightening.
Fact: Native Americans are not native. They simply colonized the area first. To be native implies one originated here, but alas they did not. They may have arrived thousands of years before the Europeans, but arrive they did, and arriving first does not mean one is « native ».
I wish people would stop telling me « I appreciate you. » They don’t appreciate me—-as they don’t even know me. They appreciate what I did. Every time someone says that to me, I cringe.
Absolute truth. Criminals will always find access to guns, yet one party wants to vilify the law-abiding citizens who want to help.
Those who say they hate the rich don’t really hate the rich; they hate that the rich are rich and that they themselves are not. The relevant emotion is not anger—it’s jealousy.
Why is humane to kill a sick animal but animal to kill a sick human? I have never understood this linguistic and societal contradiction.
Incoming! Blackhawks at West Point. 8/26/26. Reminds me of my time in Iraq. Hooah! (This video is pretty awesome. You gotta agree!)

Hiring a law firm. About 12 different combat medical issues. But I finally did it.

Do you like PB & J sandwiches. Here’s a tip. Buy fresh raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries. Take 2 blackberries, 4 raspberries, and 6 blueberries. Put them in a bowl and crush them with back of spoon. Mix it up and put that paste on the bread. Add PB and you’ve got the freshest healthiest and most delicious PB&J around.
Addendum 2: the flavor from the berries is intense you may need to use more peanut butter than normal to make it taste like the “normal” PB&J you are used to.
Addendum: if you want a more berrilicious sandwich, go for 3 blackberries, 6 raspberries, and 10 blueberries.
AI has made obsolete the phrase: “A picture or it didn’t happen!” Now it’s: “If you didn’t have multiple people there to corroborate the claim, including a rep from @GWR, and reps from the Vatican and the @DalaiLama, and AI detection software, and a notarized contract of authenticity, signed on the @boyscouts honor, with a pinky swear promise… it didn’t happen. And yet, even that won’t be enough because all of THAT can now be faked as well. Especially the pinky swear promise.
