Remember god, on every breath. In order to do that, you have to figure out what "god" means.

I think I've solved my problem. Rather than trying to reanimate an old slur, with a new meaning, let's make "American" be a virtue again, and "unamerican" a curse. We've allowed the commies to shit on "American" for too long. Americans come in all races, in all colors. Americans needn't live in the United States. Americans believe in truth and justice. Americans believe in merit, hard work, property, not handouts. Americans are forgiving, but not without seeing real atonement. Americans are charitable, but don't expect someone else to perform our charity for us. Americans are not the world's police.
Make American Virtuous Again.
I'm an American!
#American
Perfectly illustrating why I don't use that word on X. But I don't care about ignorant. I care about violence and theft, especially against people they don't know. Historically, perps were mostly people with black skin. Nowadays, it's illegal immigrants. Low IQ appears to be correlated, but it's mostly cultural. Unamerican describes it, but without the necessary shame.
All gun laws are unconstitutional.
Pass it on.
This means NFA, GCA 68, Brady, any kind of permit or background check, red flag laws, etc.
Those who have sworn an oath to the Constitution should be tried for treason, if they participate in making an unconstitutional "law".

I, too, am growing old. I'm a little younger that ESR, but at 70 I've got white hairs in my eyebrows, some gray-white starting to appear in my hair, and a salt-and-pepper beard. I don't want to live forever, since I believe that death is a doorway, not an end, and I have no intention of stopping in heaven or hell for a short eternity before continuing my timeless existence.
One slightly less visible symptom of growing old is that I'm a little dizzy, especially on first getting out of bed. Not yet Parkinson's, which runs in the family, and killed my little brother last year (he was 67). Lewie Body dementia killed my father and his sister, both in their early seventies. So I'm not yet out of the woods on that one, but it's becoming clear that I'll probably emulate my mother's side of the family, and live to 90 or more.
I'm wondering this morning whether my dizziness is an inner ear problem. Maybe the liquid isn't flowing quite right up there. This is like trauma, probably fixable by western medicine. I have experienced it as vertigo, but that isn't the usual presentation. Just lack of balance. I adjust by touching something stationary, but I'm a little worried that I will fall and hit my head.
I'll try the home Epley Maneuver, which fixes benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Just found it on the web. Will report in a couple of months.

I have a confession to make.
I am pro-AI and pro acceleration partly because I don't want to die.
To be clear, I think it's more important than my individual life that we avoid the grinding totalitarianism that I think would come from centralized government control of AI, from the coercive machinery required to enforce a "pause". But it's also the case that I don't want to die.
My mind is still agile and flexible, but physically I'm getting old. I've had cancer. I have 95% five year prognosis, but I'm at the age where that's not very much different from my actuarial expectation of life without cancer.
I want life extension and immortality to get here while I'm still alive to pick up the option. Unrestricted AI maximizes my chances of that. Every year of slowdown, conversely, increases the risk that I would die when I should have lived.
This is something to think about, if you too are growing old.

You don't already have a battle rifle and 1,000 rounds of ammunition for it? Time to fix that problem.

They forgot how evil people can be. Or maybe they were just young.
It's well past time to disestablish the US government, and replace it with nothing. It has escaped its constitutional box and run amuck.

And the perps are still breathing. And many think they should be. Take a lesson from the French Revolution. Please.

You echoed the standard understanding perfectly. I disagree. Even if I'm the only dissenter, the majority may not validly command my agreement.
Sieg heil, tyrant.

The problem is democracy. America's Founders knew that democracy was pure evil. That's why our founding documents do not contain that word. Crime is one thing, harming another person or his property. Everything else requires consent to be valid, unanimous consent.

BREAKING NEWS FROM THE DELIVERY ROOM: Parents are saying “No thanks” to the standard newborn protocol.
More moms and dads are declining the routine synthetic vitamin K shot, Hep B vaccine at birth, and the whole “just in case” bundle. Refusal rates have skyrocketed in the last year — and it’s not rebellion. It’s research.
When mom tests negative for Hep-B and baby isn’t heading into a **high-risk lifestyle of illicit drug use and prostitution** on day one, many families are asking... why inject a brand-new human with toxic injections they do not need?
The Hep-B injection gained FDA & CDC approval after only 5 days of 'safety monitoring' of only 147 children, and no saline placebo was used... that is not a safety study.
The synthetic Vitamin K injection is just that... it is NOT a natural food sourced real vitamin. It is a synthetic lab created chemical... which carries a BLACK BOX WARNING in the package insert for seizures, anaphylaxis and death.
This is **informed consent** in action. Parents protecting their littlest ones by questioning the script instead of blindly following it.
A quiet, powerful shift toward trusting our bodies’ natural design.
If you’re in the “do your own homework” camp, this one feels like a win.
I was seven, in second grade. Don't remember, except that I was in Cheyenne, Wyoming at the time.

"Let's do the time warp again!"
I rode my Kawasaki KZ 400 Limited motorcycle across Boston, in 1982, wearing my brown leather jacket, with Mimi on the back, to participate in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, at the Exeter Street Theatre, twice every weekend. Went to the IHOP with the review cast after the show. Then to my apartment, for imbibement.

I created three Spotify playlists a while back: "Play on Repeat for a Week", "Play on Repeat for a Week Some More" and "Return of the Son of Play on Repeat for a Week."
The titles are echoes of Frank Zappa's five-sided instrumental album: "Shut Up 'N Play Yer Guitar", "Shut Up 'N Play Yer Guitar Some More, and "Return of the Son of Shut Up 'N Play Yer Guitar." The original vinyl version had three disks. The back of the third disk contained a spiral track with no sound.
My three playlists contain each tune two to four times. This is suitable for a first listen, but I've already played all of them on repeat for a week, so once is now enough for me. I more recently created a playlist of all three, one play per tune: "Summary - Play on Repeat for a Week". Playing now.

I remember when I saw this for the first time, a few months back. I wept, uncontrollably, for a long time. It was a defining moment in man's expansion to the rest of the universe.

Taxation is extortion, a heinous crime. ALL taxation. Why people submit to being ruled by an organized, criminal extortion and counterfeiting racket, I do not understand.

As I was driving through northern Wyoming in May of 2023, I was blown away by the beauty. Then I remembered that it was bloody cold there for more than half the year. I'm glad to live in my house in eastern Tennessee, after a lifetime of northern winters.
