What Still Works. :)

 

This pretty much sums it up. I am...inured, with the stupidity of the last 4 years, but am optimistic for the future. In my state of residence, new diagnosis, hospitalizations and deaths from Covid-19 has dropped substantially. Sure, these numbers will rise and fall and fluctuations will occur, but it is a positive development. Obviously other states and nations are not do so well right now, but that will change. And with all the faults and silly nonsense by the Democrat party that exist, at least we have rational adults in the White House and a very slight majority in both halls of Congress. And perhaps some of the far right lunatics will soon be indisposed, incarcerated, or 6 feet under, and I am keeping my fingers crossed.  :)

What restores and maintains my faith in humanity? Encounters between humans beings like the one shown in the video below. It is one of the sweetest, most touching, innocent and wholesome things I've ever seen in my whole life. :)  

 

Clearing debt one book at a time, encouraging kids to read more instead of penalizing them for returning books late. What a concept, simple, logical, productive, effective...progressive.

There are all sorts of groups, forums, blogs dedicated to how the "right" can't meme. Meaning how lousy the political right is with snark, caustic comments, wit, humor (and of course foreign and domestic policy, integrity, honesty, ethics, and everything else). Here is a good example. Someone trying to mock the agenda of Stephen Colbert and CNN on telling people "how to think" and what to believe. The thing is...Colbert does *not* work for CNN, proving the lack of knowledge of the right...who can't meme.  :) 

 

You, and you alone, get to decide how you define as being a "grownup".  :)

When you unintentionally, make a very good point. And of course, this gun nut Trumpian twat, is too dense to even know, what she unintentionally confirmed.  :)

When countries spend their money on quality of life things, like bike paths and trash cans on bike paths, as opposed to the USA where we spend most of our money on bombs and tax breaks for rich schmucks.

An End to Internet Pornography as We Know It.

An End to Internet Pornography as We Know It. 

Fighting against the pornography and commercial sex industries can feel like an uphill battle...But in 2020, the movement made incredible steps forward thanks to our cunning strategy...steps we believe will truly help cripple online pornography forever. 

The anti-sex, anti-porn, pro-religious Christian/Muslim/Jewish fundamentalist, pro-theocratic idiotic adherents have forever and ever, tried to attribute rape and high divorce rates to the "porn" industry. So, lets just check the stats on that...

Is porn causing an increase in rape? Nope, rape has been going down for decades, meaning from the time the internet was "born" and online pornography flourished...it has decreased. 

  

Is porn increasing divorce? Nope, divorce has been going down for decades, meaning from the time the internet was "born" and online pornography flourished...it has decreased. 

 

So really, what it comes down to is religious zealots, under the guise of wanting to stop sexual abuse, exploitation of minors and trafficked victims (which we all want to stop), has been trying, and is still trying, to "rid" the world and the internet of pornography....based on their never ending lies, which they fully know are lies and not based on any science, data or facts. 

You want to stop the sexual exploitation and imprisonment of very young women and girls?

Billionaires gained $3.9 trillion during the pandemic (and most pay little, to no taxes) and workers lost $3.7 trillion in earnings, but that must just be a coincidence...right?  :)

Data is beautiful. So are facts.  :)

There's a hoopla going on with Wall Street, Reddit and a gaming company, which is all over the news. Wall Street is crying and peeing their panties as...people used the same methods they've used forever, to affect stock prices and in this case, they've basically bankrupted a shady company. I am not any sort of market genius, most people aren't, so here's a brief overview of what happened, how it affected this company, and the fear of investors that people will do the same to other companies. Keep in mind, the market crybabies are whining about the *exact* same thing they've been doing for decades.
