Should you have a spare few minutes, "Youtube search" a term, "haulover Inlet" which will find you innumerable examples of right thinking Americans, going boating in their recreational boats, often with 3/4/5 6... outboards... but also with no common sense or idea of how to use said recreational boats. Seems to be a display of wealth and idiocy, at a tricky ocean entrance passage in Miami somewhere for good 'ol boys 'n their money. vis And this is part of what is roiling the American media at this time.

Bubi, is as usual correct. O.H. should you wish to be v. wealthy and have all these f*ckers as social equals, you only have to find several things, made of, or looking like they're made of, gold and give them to Trump. Warning! there may be a queue. vis

Like you, I have no issue with guns per se, just the dipshits who cant "keep it in their pants" so to speak. The main reason I don't have a gun, is that I'd end up using it unwisely. The other night at 1 am, there was a banging on the door, like an emergency, like the house was on fire, when I got to the door, there were teens over the road laughing. Lucky I don't have a gun, I would have used it. I do have a hunting compound bow and can use it, but by the time I could have got it out of the case and aimed it, the teens had f*cked off.

I applaud this post, because I know you and I know you are showcasing this stance, so that sunlight will disinfect it.

Ahem... a cursory look at the antics of Trump and Hegseth in relation to the strikes on boats in the Caribbean, be they Drug Trafficking, Armed Invaders, or other, reveals the arbitrary killing of non combatant civilians, Murder. There is no war. Whilst there may be drugs, on the boats, there is no evidence of this, could be Copra. There is no evidence that the USA, is where they are going. These are small boats that may make it to the next island. All the justification that has been released so far is bull-swoggle. Hegseth would do well to take up drinking again, if he hasn't already, this would at least open a line of defence of diminished responsibility, in any Murder trials. "Kill them all", Pete Hegseth. TV guy.

this story has legs, and the beauty of this is, that once Hegseth takes the fall, ..the Epstein files story, waiting in the wings, will also run, on strong sinewy legs, that can run like shit, for years on end...

Trump may now abandon both Russia and Ukraine. LINK ... Donald Trump is caught between a rock and a hard place. The rock, which is vast and apparently unable to move, is Russia. The hard place is Ukraine, and the European countries standing resolutely beside it. The US president had promised to settle the war within 24 hours of taking office, later extending that to 100 days. But it has now been some 317 days since his second inauguration, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine shows no signs of slowing... _____ Stirring from a nap, Donatella vowed to end the war between Miami and Venezuela in "hour 1" of his next cabinet meeting. _____ Russian President Vladimir Putin met U.S. President Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner in the Kremlin on Tuesday for talks on a possible way to end the deadliest European conflict since World War Two. LINK ... a report that aides were spotted, taking a VHS tape machine and TV into the meeting room is thus far, unsubstantiated.

I suggest that this article is late to the party, but never the less is presented as news... LINK ...Thailand has lifted a 53-year-old ban on the afternoon retail sale of alcoholic drinks, a move expected to help boost year-end holiday tourism, as well as business at venues such as bars and convenience stores. The ban from 2pm to 5pm will be lifted on a trial basis for 180 days, after which its effects will be evaluated. An afternoon ban on selling beer, spirits and wine was enacted in 1972, when Thailand was under military rule, though the original reasons for the measure are now obscure. Thailand is predominantly Buddhist and the religion discourages imbibing intoxicating substances, though drinking is common...

I was exercising your perspicacity, nice to see you can still be wound up

"... it to look like a 60 something American woman " implies you think it is a robot when she's really a 60 something American woman . or vice a versa

jokes on you, she's his real wife, I was just being rude...

On whim I did a search and it appears that " not the nation " is alive! some recent articles https://notthenation.com/hearing-voices-bangkok-prison-officials-deny-female-inmates-were-used-as-sex-slaves/ https://notthenation.com/ancient-corruption-infrastructure-rumbles-to-life-to-grift-off-of-death-of-queen-mother/ https://notthenation.com/thaksin-unlocks-infinite-pardon-glitch/ ... BANGKOK — Although technically incarcerated, Thaksin Shinawatra has once again demonstrated his mastery of Thailand’s legal code by triggering an “infinite pardon glitch” that resets his sentence each time the system tries to enforce it. Earlier this month, the Supreme Court ruled his six-month residency in a hospital’s VIP wing didn’t qualify as prison time, but instead of extending his sentence for previously circumventing his punishment, the verdict simply opened a new pardon path. His eight-year conviction has already been reduced to one year by royal commutation, and now his lawyer has stacked another petition for clemency on top, citing “the right of every inmate” — a command input that appears to restart the loop. Officials admit they never accounted for someone with such high rankings in combatting legal encounters when drafting the legal code and haven’t found any successful patches that can match Thakin’s seeming mastery over every judge and prosecutor sent to stop him. “The system tries to contain me, but I have been studying since the very early days. I know all the backdoors since ‘Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start,’” Thaksin said confidently, while standing stoically inside Klongprem Central Prison. Analysts warn that while the glitch is permanent, other inmates should not attempt it without first reaching the billionaire level.

Seems Michael Dell of Dell computer fame has quietly "just done it" and has had his own lifelike robot, for some time, named Susan. Michael and Susan Dell AP.

...because Juan Orlando Hernández, bought a strillion dollars worth of one of the Trump family's crypto coins... ...hey Juan, have I got a deal for you, ...after Trump pardons you, I will give you a 50,000 hectare estate on the French Riviera, all I need is a strillion of my $1 Drumpy coins to be purchased... call me.
