"Pre-bunking the Obscurantism."


 

It's a podcast. Pre-bunking, Obscurantism, cartoons, censorship, murder, Sacha Baron Cohen as Abbie Hoffman, Billie Eilish, Ice Cube — a reading of the last 24 hours of this blog... with digressions and expansions. Including a reading from "How to Talk Dirty and Influence People."

"Pre-Bunking"

It takes a room temperature IQ to make up a word that means exactly the opposite of what they intend.

Journalists are the second dumbest profession in the country. They have high GPA's and low standardized test scores in college. The only profession with a larger negative correlation are school teachers.

Nice of the Times's Roger Cohen to put it so clearly:

Trump’s Last Stand for White America

Well all righty then. As a white American, I guess I know what to do.

I haven't listened to the podcasts, in case you're interested. I prefer the written stuff -- and the photos. I love th photos.

Joe Biden (D-MBNA) has been a crook for a long time. His son had a no-show job at MBNA well before he got paid off by the Ukrainians and Chinese. There are a lot of emails and pictures still to be released. If the media cover it, they will focus on the porn found on the computer. However, the focus is on how "Pop" got 50% of the graft.

Next week should be interesting because Rudy Giuliani seems to back in RICO prosecution mode.

Of course, Adam Schiff is leading the charge that this is all Russian disinformation.

Jim Comey will probably go on TV to say that he did not find any wrongdoing when he was FBI Director.

I always think that when somebody blames “white supremacy” when they probably mean “white supremacism.” I always wonder if they are secret members of the Klan and just slipped up.

Agree on the 60s. I hated those old war-baby crackpots who commandeered it for politics. It was great fun when it was apolitical.

In fact, most things were...are...

Not if what I've been reading is true.

Sounds like some of the porn might be of the Anthony Wiener persuasion...

I can't really get into the podcasts either . . . Posts, comments, podcasts about posts and comments, and comments on that . . . I only wanted a part-time gig!

But as long as there are posts, typed and read the good old-fashioned way, I'll show up.
