Thursday Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

I'm no fan of TikTok and think it's basically both brain rot for our youth and also a backdoor for the Chinese Communist Party but the RESTRICT Act is a truly bad idea. What makes us great is our freedoms - we shouldn't lightly just throw them away... Interesting - Google co-founder Larry Page seems to be purposefully avoiding being served a subpoena related to the Virgin Islands lawsuit against JP Morgan in regards to Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking. Wonder why?... The White House has banned the New York Post from covering any Hunter Biden related press conferences or press conferences that could become Hunter Biden related. Remember that the New York Times completely fabricated a story about Vladimir Putin offering bounties on US military personnel but never faced any repercussions. Shows you the priorities today... I would 100% watch this show… Let me simplify things for many out there. If someone is asking you for money over the Internet - it's a scam. Every time...  Remember when ESG scores (Environmental, Social, and Governance) were suddenly important to investors and Tesla wasn't even rated even though other EV manufacturers were? If someone was or is still trying to sell you anything based on ESG they are lying to you. And be on the lookout for whatever they dream up to be the next ESG scam... Perhaps the best evidence that we may be living in a simulation is that China's facial recognition and social credit score system is called Skynet. The name doesn't come from the Terminator series but is a translation of the idiom "the net of heaven"... Who knew? If it wasn't for Lucile Ball then Gene Rodenberry's Star Trek never would have made it to TV... If Don Lemon announced he was moving his show to Twitter - how many dozens of views do you think that Tweet would get?... Hated the movie My Dinner with Andre but would 100% watch a remake if they changed it to My Dinner with Dan Patrick or My Dinner with Joe Rogan… As always, if anything made you think or smile, please Subscribe (it's FREE), hit the Like button, or share with others.
