Basically impossible to drive at night without wearing sunglasses. These new headlights are blinding. Incredibly dangerous. Insane that this is allowed while so many more minor car design features are prohibited on safety grounds. I used to love night drives. Midnight on the open interstate, soft green glow of the dashboard lights, the radio stations coming in and fading out gave an auditory sense of motion through space and the offerings varied by region. They have degraded the American roadtrip. Image

Reminder that Trump won Virginia in 2020 by ~60k votes and then all of a sudden weird things started happening like “misplaced” flash drives surfacing with just enough votes to put a former CIA officer over the top in CD-7 and then of course there was the “Fairfax Magic” Image When I posted this screenshot pointing out that the vote dropoff in CD-1 between Biden and the Democrat congressional challenger was impossibly large (dropoff is usually 0.25-1%, here it was 30%), things started getting weird.

The historic St. Lucy-St. Patrick Church, completed in 1856, was torn down in Brooklyn this week to make way for apartments. The Roman Catholic Church sold it to developers last year for $12 million.

Image The development company that bought and tore down the church is Watermark Capital Group led by Joel Kohn, Moshe Rosenberg, and others.

COOKING TIME: Beef Bourguignon.

I’m going to show you how I do my quick-er instapot version of one of my favorite French stews Image First you want to rinse your stew beef and let it relax at room temperature for about 30 min. Some like to cut up a roast especially for this stew, but I have some scraps from the cow I put up a couple months back. Grassfed so very lean, we’ll fix that. Image

Iran, an Islamic theocracy, is currently moving military equipment to Armenia, the oldest Christian nation in the world, to dissuade Azerbaijan, a 99% Muslim country with a secular dictatorship, from carrying out a genocide of Armenian Christians with weapons provided by Israel. The Armenians are longtime allies of Russia, they’re even in the Moscow-led CSTO defense pact. Russia’s answer to NATO.

But Russian forces are tied up in Ukraine and hasn’t provided an effective security umbrella. So now the Armenians are doing exercises with the U.S. army.

Peter Hotez vaccinated his daughter to the gills, she developed severe autism, which he then cynically used to further his own career as a leading vaccine-promoter.

He offered no proof for his central claim that vaccines did not cause his daughters condition. Just assertion. Image When Hotez does cite studies, it’s usually been ones done in European countries with far fewer vaccines on their schedules, and where BCG immunization (which is protective against some other childhood vaccine injuries) is also common.

I see a lot of people are taking the general narrative of Ted Kaczynski at face value.

A narrative shaped by the FBI in the 1990s.

The same organization that lied about Ruby Ridge, lied about Waco, lied about Oklahoma City…and used all of those events to expand their power The McVeigh and Kaczynski cases both have some striking similarities.

Both were subjected to intense psychiatric manipulation at the hands of shadowy forces.

During his years at Harvard, Kaczynski was part of a three-year experiment aimed at “psychic deconstruction” that… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Kennedy and DeSantis were both just at the border. Kennedy got a ton of cable news coverage and social media engagement. People are talking about his trip. Not the case with DeSantis.

Can you guess why? ImageImage @GovRonDeSantis 4.4 million followers.

@RobertKennedyJr 1.4 million followers.

Compare the key social post from each candidate. DeSantis’ had advance team, event production, pro AV crew - didn’t clear 1k retweets. Kennedy took a video on his phone, got over 27x the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage

Trump will be indicted next Tuesday, June 13th, exactly 888 days after January 6th.

8 is the symbol of death, rebirth, and consecration.

Genesis commanded circumcision on the eighth day of… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… It’s also the day before President Trump’s birthday. On Wednesday he will become 77 years old. I don’t have to explain the significance of 77.

As a woman, you must never cry in front of a man. You can cry in private, you can cry with your best friends, you can cry with your mother, even though you ought not to. But you must never cry in front of a man. Most unsaved women seem to have a disgust reaction to men crying, no matter the reason. Whatever, it’s biological.

But male reaction to female crying is “what do I say or do to make it stop?”. This is why it’s so often used as a manipulation tactic. But manipulation never ends… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Posting a video of mountain people cutting up and having a good time isn’t the own you think it is. No Republican can get elected president without strong support from folks like this. The story of the midterms has only been half absorbed. The end of Roe did boost Dem turnout, but what hurt the GOP the most was the drop in rural turnout. Across the country, rural turnout was 20-30 points lower than the GOP expected.

The climate is changing. It has always been changing. Near the village one of my ancestors came from in Germany there is a mountain with terraces cut into the side by the Romans. They grew grapes there. They could do that because the climate was much warmer then. It’s not warm… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… We can’t control the climate, but we can control whether or not we turn our world into a garbage dump, we can stop polluting the lakes and rivers, we can stop putting chemicals in our food supply, we can stop building eyesores, we can stop population growth, we can stop progress.

One potent advantage Trump has going into the election is the power of nostalgia and image. Normal people aren’t buying the “threat to democracy” line from the Dems. They see him as a fun lovable guy. No one comes close on the “which candidate would you rather hang out with?”… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… When I say normal people, I’m not even talking country/MAGA. I’m talking high school kids, urban/suburban 20somethings, people not at all plugged into Republican politics.

We’ve barely scratched the surface of how bad things will have to get before they can get better I think the main source of tension is that everyone knows things are going to keep getting worse and want to just skip ahead to the stage where they just wander around like Cormac McCarthy characters instead of having to continue carrying on a normal daily routine conscious of… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
