Gee. Ya think?

Polls have Biden winning the Old-people vote. This is why i never thot Biden’s brain-disintigration would hurt Biden. I think Old people give candidates a break on the brain-thing. They dont care.

Right. The only “panic” he could have been worried about was panic on Wall Street. Not panic on Main Street. He could not possibly care less about that.

As i recall the Tokyo-Studies of the 1950’s clearly demonstrated that many humans do indeed panic when confronted by confusing situations. Women often fall down.

My question is, what do sandworms eat.

They are really big and there can’t be a whole lot of foodstuffs wandering around out on the desert.

At least on earth blue whales have krill.

That’s a cruel trick of evolution–to make you this gigantic creature who lives in desert sands, where nothing edible would venture.

…

===================
Ya know. There’s this thing called the Internet. You can search “what do worms eat?”

“Types of Foods for Composting Worms
“…worms love fruits and vegetables from your kitchen and garden. Save your left-over, spoilt organic matter, peelings, and cores for the worms. They also like tea bags, bread, pasta, grains, shredded black print newspaper, coffee grounds, and hair”

“…Dan Coats, the director of national intelligence at the time. Mr. Coats himself was haunted by the president’s Twitter feed and believed that Mr. Trump’s gentle approach to Russia reflected something more sinister….”

This to me — and i know others here disagree — but this to me, is part of the mega-problem. This CIA-murderer is upset at Trump, NOT because trump has interfered in left-leaning nations, or that Trump has bombed Syria or that Trump has embraced dictators in Saudi Arabia, or that Trump is destroying the biosphere with his insane enviro-policies — no. The spook is upset because Trump is not hostile enough towards Russia. Like Hillary would have been.

This is exactly why people like me, and bill moyers and glenn greenwald and chris hedges and cornell west are not averse to the ‘deep state’ term.

Believe it or not, i tend to agree with Sagaar on a lot of this. And yall know what i think of Trump. But the Atlantic piece struck me as mainly a political-hit-piece by the Dem-CIA-War-Machine.

And like Sagaar, I think its more than likely Trump did indeed say something along the lines of whats been reported. I’m SURE he’s said a LOT worse in the last four years. But the Timing of the story AND the agenda of The Atlantic/NYT/Wash-Post/MSNBC etc has NEVER been simply to ‘tell the truth.’ Its the Thomas Friedman agenda. I often call it the deep-state, but its basically just the Imperialism-Agenda if that term is less problematic.

Am i the onliest one who agrees with Sagaar?

After the beat-down last year, its understandable the Rams would be dogs.

Looks like its about the second-most interesting game on the NFL schedule in week one. I would think Brady vs the Saints will be the most-watched game.

I went ahead and let GamePass sign me up for another year. I was leaning against it, but I went ahead and let the corporate-weasels automatically sign me up.
This has to be the strangest NFL year of all time. The Covid-Year. The year piped-in-fake-fan/noise was added to the telecast. Empty stadiums.

The super-bowl could be played in any empty stadium. Think about that.
Random players will be getting Covid, every week. Think about that.
Weird-Football in the midst of the civil-war-Election-of-the-century.
All the players will be kneeling this time. Cept Kaepernik is nowhere on the field.

What a strange trip.

Go Rams. I guess.

I dunno.

I think W is right to be concerned about it. ANY violence by the ‘protesters’ is gonna fit nicely into a rightwing frame of Dem-equals-soft-on-crime.

Doesnt matter how big a pile of bullshit it is — Americans swallow shovels full of bull-shit everyday.

Having said that, it is what it is. The protests are not gonna stop. The pieces are in play. The die is cast. The protesters have…um…crossed the Rubicon. The game is afoot.

Good to see you again, PA.

Ive had several young college-students ask me if I thot there was going to be a ‘civil war’ soon. What do you think happened in the last ten years or so?
I guess we’ve always had this blue/red divide but somethin seems different now.
