It's funny how many Morally Correct People are willing to abandon their opposition to some injustice as soon as the target of that injustice is someone they dislike.
Wait, "funny" isn't the right word. What's the one I'm looking for? Oh yeah, "disgusting".

Police brutality deniers are like medieval people taking refuge in a church during the plague, praying that they'll be spared from a menace nurtured by their own lack of hygiene and refusal to remove garbage from their communities.

If you define one individual, group, or type of people as always right regardless of their actions, and another as always wrong regardless of their actions, you are a moral imbecile and any moral arguments you make can be safely dismissed as moral imbecility.

Pigs root for food. Even a child should be able to come up with a solution, unless of course that child's brain has been rotted by authoritarianism and depending on the government for all their thinking. https://t.co/YLJIcok3s1

…almost never appear in tweets containing items useful for my specific fields of interest. The idea is to remove a lot of the noise so I can more clearly hear what signal is left. This of course means some tweets from people I follow will be muted; regrettable, but unavoidable.

Another reason to live in a rural area: it's impossible for cops to enforce a "lockdown" on innocent people as though they were in a prison (usually after belching the magic word "safety").

As a teen, I thought most folks were ignorant fools with atrocious beliefs.
Then I grew older & wiser, and realized their beliefs being different from mine didn't make them wrong or foolish.
Then I grew older & wiser still, and realized I'd been mostly correct in the 1st place.

The baroque dance around execution methods that states with an active death penalty have been performing for decades now, even though hanging & shooting are both cheap and easy, is strong evidence that they are desperate to cloak an ugly reality under a "modern", clinical guise.

A little off-topic, but am I the only one who finds staged photos of politicians signing bills while one, several, or even a huge gang of uninvolved people lurk behind him, to be extremely creepy? https://t.co/5Wc4G17dih

We're still going to call our plentiful Steller's jays "Steller's jays" regardless, just as I still call Facebook "Facebook", Google "Google", and this site "Twitter". https://t.co/q9cQX6cSEw

Every cop involved in wrong-address raids should be immediately fired without recourse; basic literacy should be a MINIMUM requirement for any job in which people could be harmed or even killed because some cretin couldn't correctly read an address. https://t.co/GAySouguIK

Puritans never recognize how transparent they are to non-puritans. It's as though the guy running around with claws, sharp teeth and hair all over can't figure out how everyone guesses he's a werewolf.

"Artificial intelligence" is a fantasy of techies, reporters, and hack science fiction. "Intelligence" in machines is a long, long way off and will require a change in the WAY they function, not merely their speed or size. What we have now is Machine Learning (ML), not "AI".

…no mortgage & good health. I worry about money every week & have minor panics about it 2 or 3 times a year, and could use a foundation/wealthy donor to give me a decent stipend. But at least I don't have to constantly issue statements that sound like DVD anti-piracy threats.

It was bad enough when they imagined wealth as big piles of paper in a Scrooge McDuck vault, but now they ALSO want you to imagine that the pile is actually a huge compost heap rotting from the bottom up.

So, are you offering a choice between $10 million and the ability to transport oneself into a cartoon universe? Is this ability permanent, or one-time only? Does it allow transport into ANY cartoon universe, at will? Does it grant cartoon character invulnerability too? https://t.co/CjNNui3fx4
