This was interesting. The corporate press just ignored the FOIA releases of Dr. Fauci’s emails. To quote President Biden, this is a big !@#&ing deal. But the press your relatives might be watching say it’s all good. No. It’s not. It’s probably even worse than what Clapper did in 2013. Obviously, Senator Paul is doing … Continue reading “Another Week”
Just finished to this. It’s an interesting discussion, and goes to something that one of the shows I’ve been listening to is worried about…where companies providing credit are concerned more with lending standards based on odd factors. Whatever. Lenders should be able to do whatever they want to do. Government shouldn’t get involved with it … Continue reading “Saturday Selfishness”
Busy week, but productive. Obviously, the big news in my former world is the death of Rush Limbaugh. As I aged, and was exposed to more information, his offerings became less pallatablle. It happens. I worked for one of his affiliates for nearly a decade. I’m still on good terms with the people I worked … Continue reading “Circling Saturday”
I have satisfied the hours in my pay period, so I stopped working at 11. A lot of what I was doing, anyway, would have been disrupted by patching operations on my work PC. Good episode of The Fifth Column (unfortunately, I can’t find a link this morning. A lot of my concerns in the … Continue reading “Starting The Long Weekend Early”
Feel like I’m Tom Brady throwing a pass to one of his running backs last night. Something I should be doing with ease, but I manage to screw it up. The prompt I had queued up for today’s entry is suspiciously close to something I’d written about a few days ago. It involved which book … Continue reading “Twenty-four”
I started writing this years ago, and it was sitting in my drafts folder. I’m not sure if I posted what I wrote then, but I’ll repost it now, and redo the prompt today. What job would you never take?Another with the four-letter company where I worked. What a disaster.Backstory this criminal recommended me following … Continue reading “Six”
Per last entry, I’m seriously limiting Facebook access. Im happier for it. I did end up checking in yesterday, because I was concerned about my oldest friend’s family. No news, but I did see that I had a message. Email. Fuck Zuckerberg, his content moderation, and data mining. I did watch The Social Dilemma.last weekend/early … Continue reading “Continuing On The Theme”
Back in the summer of 2019, I wrote a blog post called, “You can leave.” When I wrote it, I was talking largely about what I was seeing happening with Google and Facebook. Since I’ve been in virtual isolation worried about COVID-19/Coronavirus/”The Chinese Virus,” I’ve opened back up to social media, I’m leaving again. I’ve … Continue reading “See ya”
Much as I appreciate Katherine Mangu-Ward’s argument against voting, I did go vote in the Virginia Democratic Primary this afternoon. Why? Because some of the candidates, two in particular, were so terribly awful I felt the need to try to contribute to their early departure. I won’t name specifics, but I will say, “New England.” … Continue reading “Registering Dissent”
Write about social media. What are your accounts? What have you set aside? I’ve heard a lot of discussion over the past few months saying that social media is very destructive. Maybe that’s too much listening to Bridget Phetasy. Still, there’s been the thought that’s been going through my head for some time now that … Continue reading “Twenty-seven”
