Friday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Surprised the corporate media hasn't somehow come out and blamed Donald Trump for the pro-Palestinian protestors attacking the Democrats HQ or said the protest was mostly peaceful yet. They've tried covering it up but that hasn't worked... Both Cher and Barbara Streisand say they will leave the US if Donald Trump is elected President in 2024. As if people didn't already have enough incentive... Interesting: Alaska Airlines uses Stripe for Tap to Pay in-flight purchases. This is a first... WalMart has seen its revenue grow year over year and I have to wonder if this is because more families have moved from more upscale venues to WalMart because of a decrease in the families' purchasing power?... The fact that some protestors try to cover up their faces shows that they are ashamed of either their actions or the act itself. That should tell you all you need to know about both their cause and their character... In my head I just hear Pam saying, "They're the same picture"... The dictionary definition of victim is a person that is harmed or injured because of the action of another. Refuse to be a victim - that is a choice... I hope realtors remember Streisand’s and Cher’s pledged and call them the day after the election… Interesting that Elon Musk may try to do an IPO of Starlink and keep SpaceX. Never considered this option... Did not know this? When Moses Malone's uniform number was retired by the Philadelphia 76ers he had the names of his teammates sewn into his banner. The names were sown into the perimeter of the banner... This is why I love hockey players... So is Grok basically an AI with Twitter/X's sense of irony and humor? Almost seems like an AI version of Elon Musk... So would it be possible to dock the Joint Chiefs' salary and pension if the Department of Defense can't pass an audit? Seems like both a good penalty and that someone should pay a penalty. How is that not fair?...
