usa trains

Talk about stating the obvious. The whole world knows where the USA’s looted money goes.

Jon S. von Tetzchner @jon Europe has a decent train system. One can get most places with a train and it is relatively fast. Japan has some fantastic high speed trains. The US has a ways to go when it comes to trains. They are not as fast and they tend to be old and there is limited options. There is a lot of room for improvement. I do think that if there was investment in a decent train infrastructure, it would make a massive difference. #train #Europe #Japan #USA #travel

some political youtubers that used to be good

Posted on March 2, 2023 by | Leave a comment

Some political YouTubers I just can’t do anymore. The daily show is 3+ hours, EVERY day. I don’t know how that can be possible. Is there any time for life outside of production?

The shows are inefficient. The first hour is about fundraising and likes with lots of popups, over and over. As it drifts into the content, constant shoutouts to the Superchat (people who pay up). Stop, start, stop, start.

A little content finally drifts in but the “likes” and “support” reminders keep coming in. “We need a 1000 likes, but we only have 300 with 1200 viewers. C’mon people.”

I’ve had to give many of them up. They used to be good. Painful.

playing with the car radio on a business trip

Posted on January 22, 2023 by | Leave a comment

Sometimes when driving for work, I’ll put something bizarre (for me) on the car radio for “intellectual” curiosity.

My weekend trip to Charlotte, I had Truth FM “Christian” radio playing. There is something even more toxic than usual about mixing this type religion with broadcasting.

On the trip down, it was about the tribulation, rapture, and demonic locusts and things. It could get quite dangerous when airplanes start crashing when some pilots suddenly vanish.

On the return trip home, the show was totally about empire worship, focusing on a certain country in the Middle East and it’s big friend.

Difficult listening.

reiner is peak “something”

Posted on January 4, 2023 by | Leave a comment

Just saving this to remember the crazy.

Screenshot of two Tweets by Rob Reiner. Rob Reiner @robreiner · 14h Today we say goodbye to possibly the greatest Speaker of the House in US history. Nancy Pelosi has brilliantly and effectively led Congress with intelligence, passion, decency, and a devotion to upholding our Constitution. Her accomplishments are unparalleled. Thank you, Nancy. Rob Reiner @robreiner President Biden has been the most accomplished and legislatively successful president in the last 60 years. He has saved our Democracy from going over a Cliff. Let’s hope he decides to run for re-election. 10:49 AM · Jan 2, 2023

z’s “what i want for christmas” visit

Posted on December 24, 2022 by | Leave a comment

Media so lacking in details that I cannot find out if one creep visiting another creep in DC has wrapped it up yet.

After numerous searches, I finally found out it was a less than 12-hour visit, so thankfully it’s over.

postcard campaign and other busy work

Posted on December 22, 2022 by | Leave a comment

Postcard campaign: writing postcards urging people to vote (i.e. GOTV: get out the vote).

I went to a “social justice” meeting, and this was what was going on. Busy work for liberals.

I availed myself of the snacks and left.

Other things I view as useless:

— phone/text banking
— writing form letters that don’t even make sense to elected officials

empire lovers to mastodon!

Posted on December 22, 2022 by | Leave a comment

Gross.

Some of the resistance phonies and empire propaganda shitheads are headed to Mastodon.

In that case, these should go, too. Well, some already have. There are so many

Bill Browder
Nika Melkozerova
NBC News
Julia Davis
Seth Abramson
Liz Cheney
Robert Reich
The Lincoln Project
Occupy Democrats
Rachel Maddow
Simon Rosenberg

Tweet by Teri Kanefield I no longer like the idea of my social media platform being someone else's for-profit business. If Mastodon catches on, organizations and people you know and trust will set up their own servers (called "instances.") I know from setting my own that the cost isn't that high . . . 8:28 PM · Dec 20, 2022
