When I was told this by a friend, I was incredulous, as I am about anything that conveniently fits the narrative.

The New Republic: Florida law may ban Rocky Horror
When I was told this by a friend, I was incredulous, as I am about anything that conveniently fits the narrative.
This isn’t my invention. One of my students told me that her dad built a system to use the heat from the central air conditioning heat pump to warm the water for their swimming pool.

Foreign Policy: Will Washington Stop Nuclear Power
Foreign Policy: Will Washington Stop Nuclear Power
As Biden administration climate czar John Kerry rightly put it: “We don’t get to net zero by 2050 without nuclear power in the mix.”
It is not often that John Kerry says something that is smart and needs to be repeated often.

Climate Change increasing the number of home runs in MLB.
This topic has been making the news, so it’s worth a look.
“As soon as it gets warm, the ball carries a lot better,” Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez told The Post. “I usually tell everybody, right about the middle of May, the balls will start flying out of the ballpark.”
That’s from a team manager, so it has to be true. More home runs couldn’t possibly come from the players getting into the groove as they get a month into the season.

Breitbart: Vivek Ramaswamy on Trans MMA Fightersent-vows-fight-trans-cult/
When I was in my teens, Muhammad Ali fought Joe Frazier, George Foreman and Ken Norton. I’m not a fight fan, but those fights were fun. Muhammad Ali could talk shit and move in the ring. Those guys were like giant dinosaurs slugging it out. MMA holds no appeal to me, but I have enjoyed Joe Rogan since NewsRadio. Rogan was shaken up by Tamikka Brents getting beaten up. Apparently Brents didn’t even know that she would be fighting a man.
My sister got me a spring-loaded duck for my birthday. The duck is launched like shooting a rubber band.
Sparky knows damn well what “Sparking, come!” means. This is what I’m working with. When I say I’m in a battle of wits with a dog, this is what I mean.
I can go on about all the bad that came from the Covid lock down, but one good result is that people who weren’t previously technically savvy, stepped up their game to learn new skills and start establishing an online presence.
Schools are a condensed version of the community. To stop school shootings, society has to change, and that’s difficult. It is more convenient for activists to use school shootings to their political advantage. “Never let a crisis go to waste.” The corollary is never solve a crisis if you don’t have to.
Everybody needs to grow up and act like adults.
Does anyone really want to stop school shootings? I ask because when there is a school shooting, even before the bodies have cooled, a legion of activists demand that guns are taken away from responsible gun owners.

Immediately after a school shooting, before the bodies are buried, political opportunists attempt to exploit the story to achieve their objectives. A few days later, most of the details of the tragedy are known. After a week, the commercial media has settled on a narrative that benefits their political interests or they move on to other news.
