Interesting you say that…

The New York Times did a big expose back in 2018, showing how China would no longer take the huge container ships filled with all of our recycling/garbage.

It was on the nightly news, briefly, with pictures of said container ships idling outside ports in China.

Then…crickets.

So, if anyone thinks the U.S. ‘suddenly’ became capable of recycling stuff they never could before…dream on.

And it’s not just the unique stuff, with colored plastics with high numbers in the little triangle, it’s simple stuff, too.

The head of Boise’s recycling program admitted in an interview on the news that they actually truck all of their glass recycling to Denver.

You know, to save the planet…

All this talk of man pregnancy not being a thing always has me wondering. Of course we easily know men don't have the plumbing. And even if some woman wants to call herself a man, she ain't a man because she still has female body parts. Now I also know there a few, I mean a tiny fraction, like almost none - people born with mixed parts. If one of them gets pregnant then yeah she is a woman. Also I suppose we could have a dude with EVERYTHING replaced from a donor (?) or lab grown and have complete female parts, I mean not just a nasty new front hole, but ovaries and all. This hasn't happened yet that I know of. So these pregnant men? I saw the one pic here. Dude with a beer belly. Sorry. It's not a thing, it's a construct of the controlists who don't want gender identifiers, or rather want millions of gender identifiers to further segment society.

I pondered this as I ran for the Safeway men's room after 3 coffees. My back teeth were floating. I had to pee like a race horse. Head tilted back, oh relief............then I hear it. A man actually giving birth in the stall behind me. Wow. I was going to ask if he needed drugs? A Cesarean? I mean I think it was a man. The grunts sounded like it. I will never know. I did yell "short breaths between the contractions"........and strangely same response as my wife 25-30 years ago..."YOU BASTARD". Cripes, I'm not the father. WTH?????

Citing medical literature and medical studies now violates 'hate speech' rules on Twitter.

I thought Elan and/or the new leadership was going to put a stop to that BS?

Elon won't be the official owner of Twitter until the deal goes through. It's currently on hold.

Proving people wrong on the internet...

Got called a liar for pointing out that London had a higher homicide rate than NYC did at one point, despite not having guns, and they used knives... Was able to post cite proving him wrong.

Then he changed the goal post, saying there were no mass knife attacks, so I pointed out the Chinese school massacres. Mostly knives and hammers.


Then I posted FBI crime stats showing more than 2x as many people are killed by fists, bats, and rocks, than rifles, and that's ALL rifles, of which only a small portion are so-called 'assault rifles'....

3 strikes and I'm out, apparently... because he blocked me....

This morning I arrived at work, to find a guy passed out in his truck right in front of the door. We have several female employees who would be showing up shortly, and I didn't think it wise to let him remain for much longer..

So as I puttered around prepping for the morning, I considered how I was going to chase him off, hopefully without any fuss. I mean...who knows what happened to put this guy where he ended up?

Thinking about that lead me to a much better mind space than when I had arrived. So I woke him gently....from a distance...with a cup of coffee in hand.

It was a very small effort on my part, but his appreciation was quite profound, and I'm reminded just how far a little kindness will go in dealing with a problem someone else is causing.

Empathizing with others doesn't always work, but it's a damn good starting point to work out an issue when cooperation is necessary.

Hypnagogic hallucinations have been flaring up lately.

Nicely played!

I was going into town at the speed limit of 50 mph, and some little probably high school aged tattooed pierced punk decided he was late for something….
Bambi and mommy’s Honda never stood a chance, he was probably doing 80 plus.

I was going to say it seemed pretty low.... I don't know what bail for DUI is or should be - thank god.
