What he says…

Translated by Stephen Addiss and Stanley Lombardo. Copyright 1993 by Hackett Publishing. Including a 4 page preface by the translators on the difficulties involved with translating it.

Even though I already have a favorite translation of the Tao Te Ching, I will be watching this in its entirety. Thank you for sharing.

On my post-Trump bingo card. He melted all the pennies to sell the copper. Where are all the pennies? We've never had a shortage before.

Then my wife took this one.

Hood ornament.

Talk about mental decline. Unable to remember someone who you have known for decades.

Anyone ever tell these people Jesus isn't white?

Mia (tortoise shell tabby) knows that she is also baby girl. Cinnamon (orange) only recognizes his name occasionally.

I feel bad. I defaced property today. To be fair, it was changing a swastika into a square of squares. Never mind, I feel good about it.

And textbooks. Record all the horror from the last 55 years as the decent to fascism so others can learn not to repeat it.

Normally I would be appalled that our jets can be hacked. These are not normal times.

What is the validity of the court when there is greater jurisprudence in the dissent than in the opinion?

Now they are making sure we can't escape!

Understood Comrade Hoodlum. I will not screenshot this photo to put it on Facebook.

Reading through the Bible, it has become quite obvious to me that America can not be the chosen nation. God loves the underdog too much.

I briefly skimmed what the Canadian DOJ says about it. While it may apply to anti-gay Bible verses, the only thing specifically called out were swastika. Only applies if you are using it to prevent entry to a religious or cultural site. *I'm not a lawyer*

When are we getting the movie? This would be a blockbuster!

Where did you find the cheap gas?

An example of product placement.

Looking at the whole of human history, I see us as defined by avarice, hatred, and corruption. It is only in the threads of individual lives that this is not the case. It is only by affecting those individual threads that we will see the pattern change.

I have a degree in psychology. And a bookshelf with Plato, Machiavelli, Mencius, Lao Tzu, etc. Experience in both retail customer service and factory quality standards. I truly feel this world could be more fair, but it is deeply broken.

In other news, the arrow on this graph is pointing down. Just like every other graph we have shown that isn't about prices.

The fact that the entire US government can be strategically out maneuvered by a middle school chess team gives me hope.

Still have my original Gameboy from 1992 ( it still works). I tried to post a picture, but it wouldn't attach.

I miss Trump 1.0 when he did something stupid, and everyone had the decency to laugh. Trump 2.0 is exactly the same, except now MAGA's call his idiocy genius.

Trump has killed more service members in Iran than Clinton in Benghazi.

Crickets from Congress.

I have an estimated IQ of 130, but if I ever make it on Trump's radar, he will most assuredly assert that my IQ is low. BTW the reason my IQ is estimated is that I'm unable to take the WAIS, having administered it in the past. You know full disclosure, the kind you won't get from Trump.

How about we just get rid of all political parties? No choice left but to campaign on the issues and when elected no choice left but to build coalitions to get things done. No more conveniently towing the line to commit atrocities. Your only loyalty is your constituency.

The fact that I'm agreeing with the jurisprudence of Gorsuch reveals just how foundational this issue is.
