The first one is so bleak, it makes the 2nd one so much better. BTW, does anyone know John Scalzi? The SF writer? What a piece of work he is. The greatest con-artist and self-promoter since PT Barnum. He's left twitter. Too "Rightwing" and now on "Bluesky" where "decent people" can meet and talk without those "nasty" people intruding.
He has 140 thousand followers. Only 4-6 of whom repost his comments. Can we say "fake followers" boys and girls? Anyway, the left always seeks the echo-chamber. Conformity and goose-step. All the while shouting what "Free thinkers" they are. LOL.
On the other hand, most of his SciFi stories have been quite good. I'm so old I don't care about a writer's, or performer's, politics or opinions as long as they produce something I enjoy. Of course, in my dotage, I ignore social media in its' entirety so am not plagued with knowledge of said person's inclination.
Oh no! Pete Hegseth has (1) a tattoo that reads “Deus vult,” which is a Latin phrase meaning “God wills it, and (2) a very large tattoo called the Jerusalem Cross. “Deus volt,” admittedly, was a rallying cry for Christian crusaders in the 11th century. But ten centuries later I (an atheist) understand it’s just another Christian-related phrase.
So this was enough for Pete to be flagged as an “insider threat.” Apparently Christians aren’t welcome in the US Army. Is this partly why recruiters cannot meet their goals?

What’s the over/under on when Inga shows up on these threads again?
(Keep in mind she can skew the odds anytime she want to because she is no doubt skulking in the background)
Did you know - seeing cats is good luck. Oh yes.

One wonders if a crescent and an Arabic inscription would be welcome.
Those were pretty amusing
