Libs have found that they can make stupid, drastic changes faster when we're all in a panic and stress is high. If we're all happy, nothing gets done. Always take advantage of a crisis, right?


"Homeless RV park" at the Sacramento River. Maybe Joe can score this campground during his next adventure...

I'd been thinking about another trip to the Dakotas this fall, but the reality of the situation is that I have three major projects all scheduled to go online in the Aug-Sep timeframe, so that's not going to happen.

Having a job and being a productive member of society has its downsides. Though they beat the alternative.

At this point, I'm thinking maybe a long-weekend RV trip to Starved Rock in September, and then back into the regular groove with another "lost in the ******* desert" trip to SW UT early next year.

Because this sort of thing really recalibrates the soul:

First of all, thanks for not showing off your hair leggings. Next, I'm wondering if communing with nature also involves testing natural substances for more clarity of thought. And indeed, thinking about whether we live in a multiverse, and how many of our infinite selves are doing the same thing?

Someone really needs to make a "West Coast or Venezuela?" game out of images like these.

Did anyone notice that they changed Washington's head on the quarter, looks ugly. More proof our government is incomplete.

Did anyone notice that places where they've legalized crime are shitholes?

Alleged Lee Zeldin attempted attacker charged with felony, immediately released just as congressman predicted

Rep. Zeldin took to Twitter to say be believed his suspected attacker would be 'instantly released under NY's laws'

Dear JoeP,

It took 20 years to find out the pro-science serotonin "chemical imbalance" position was just a way to sell shitty drugs.

Love, Brain


P.S. This seems really odd but, I noticed it took a few days for 4 or 5 companies to develop a vaccine, and then announce it months and months later, notably, the day after Biden was elected, and then proceeded to make billions through government subsidizing and coercion. The weirdest part is that they didn't really work as promised yet everyone keeps toting them and mandating them... weird, huh? Science is weird; always "changing".

P.S.S. masks.

Various aerosol studies have shown that micron range droplet particles from breathing, talking, coughing and sneezing bear influenza viruses, and that the aerosol route is an important contributor to infection[2,3]. The particles making up aerosol in normal exhalation are less than 1 micron in size; aerosol particles range from 0.1 micron to 5 micron[2,4], and these smallest particles are primary vectors of contagion[5,6].
1000 nm= 1 micron for those that cant convert scales easily.

Masks are literally an IQ test for me now; if one thinks they work to stop viral transmission I don't trust anything technical they say. Its an immediate disqualifier.

oh did you hear about this? Apparently, opioids are addictive.

This again is really odd, because it was pro-science to believe pro-profit companies--who wanted to sell shitty drugs--that they weren't. is this a pattern?
