  1. This does not end well for Putin. If Russia is having trouble taking the Ukraine, they are not going to fare well against a united Europe. And it will hopefully galvanize the US, as Pearl Harbor did, and eliminate the MAGGAT waffling. Once Russia backs down, he's toast.

    A man with a limited skill set, slanted heavily toward 'bluster' . . . that sounds oddly familiar . . .

    True, but it seems as of late that the GOP declares all opponents to be insane without exception, based more on the fact that they are opponents than on any coherent expression of policy.

    Not all of them; indeed the term RINO has been subverted to mean it's opposite. The neo-fascists that currently control the GOP are not Republican as historically understood. But, there are several Republicans who I have to respect for their call the Dumpster Fire what it is. And they have all paid a price for doing so. Would I vote for them? Probably not, but if they won, I would not feel our nation is threatened.

    And to listen to a lot of Democrats talk, anyone who isn't pushing substantially identical policies (sometimes with the pointy bit in a different group's chest) in the name of anti-fascism is lurching uncontrollably to the right.

    I don't think that is true. Most folks I've talked to are aware of who is a neo-fascist and who is a conservative. Recall that Joe Biden and John McCain were close friends, Joe Lieberman (D) was considered as John McCain's running mate, and Barrack Obama and both of the others mentioned delivered eulogies at McCain's funeral; Mango Maggat Man was specifically not invited due to his prior disrespectful and petty comments. I've heard nothing but praise for the Republicans who took a stand against the insurrection on the January 6th committee.

    Politicians make excellent subjects for beginners’ anatomy classes: they have no brains, no spines, no hearts, no guts, and no balls.

    Wouldn't that make them bad subjects for beginner's anatomy classes, having misleading anatomy with missing parts?

    3) Their use of a holiday meant to honour a man who preached tolerance and acceptance as a tool to further promote hatred and intolerance.

    That is the entire Religious Right in the US. Entirely missing the point.

    4) Their assumption that their voters are so blisteringly dim-witted so as not to know how calendars work.

    5) The possibility that a number of them actually are that dim offends me personally.

    To be fair, "When is Easter?' is not trivial. Not exceedingly difficult, but requires some calculation.

    Sorry to say, #5 is true, and the number is not small.

    If you're a pre-bronze age peasant, or a figurehead politician, it can be hard to tell the difference 

     

    If you are a figurehead politician, odds are pulling your brains out through your nose is not going to make a lot of difference.


  6. I have to agree with her, a d1 is useless; if you need it, just add 1 to the total. If you want one, you don't need a Mobius strip. Take a blank die, put a '1' on each face. Get a ball, write some '1's on it. Mark a '1' on both sides of a coin.

    Then again, I've never been bowling, so I can't say for sure.

    I'm not a huge fan, but it should probably be experienced a few time at least in your lifetime, just for the cultural connection.

    I just heard that Akira Toriyama died last Friday, at the age of 68. For those who don't know, he was a manga writer/artist who created several popular series -- most notably Dragonball (which I was a big fan of back in the early 00s). He was also character designer for a number of video games including the Dragon Quest (AKA Dragon Warrior) series, and my favorite game, Chrono Trigger.

    I saw that. He died young.


  9. Per the commentary, Arthur does not know more, Jay is assuming she is being left out of the loop.

    I wonder why she's so paranoid? My initial guess is that she tried to copy Arthur and he saw it as something he could not allow, and now they are at odds.

    OTOH, she is concerned about what Susan may know about her, so maybe there's more.

     

    I fixed the second thing for you:

    Unas pocas suposiciones erróneas y una simple consulta pueden convertirse en una inquisición (apuesto a que no esperabas eso)
