A hydrogen bomb is really the only true 'solar generator' mankind has.. it makes light and energy the same way the sun does, with the same basic materials.. in effect.

Why is it mostly everything i like or do considered retro. Even my freaking choice in belts.. 

lol

Belts? I'm so retro I wear suspenders.

i donno, i have always thought of boomers being old.   Not us Gen X people ( tho i admit i just came in under the line..  was almost a boomer )

Traditionally '86' just means 'to get rid of'.. just sayin..

Today's example of societal dumbness:

"Hi, insurance agent, id like for you to send us paper copies of our cards"

"Hello, i emailed..."

Moron. *insert Picard facepalm meme*

And yes i knew how to get the digital copies, and i have a printer. That that i can wasn't the point.  I am sick and tired of doing their job for me.

This. For sure. I can't stomach Candace Owens and Carlson and their anti-Zionist rhetoric. But Ben Shapiro also seems like a grifter who I don't have a lot of faith in. 

And the Right sure seems more like a divided, "you're on our side or their side," echo chamber that doesn't have any room for - "I'm not sure Israel is our friend, but I'm pretty sure IRAN *isn't*," moderate right view.

I feel as if "sides" are starting to come unstitched all over the place.

LGB is distancing itself from T.

Left and right political factions are turning into a weird two dimensional quadrant of left and right on one axis and whether you love or hate jews/Israel on the other axis.

And the volume of computer generated astroturf and false flag rhetoric is so deafeningly loud at this point that no one can tell who is who anymore.
We've all become star bellied sneeches.

If this isn't a simulation, whey is it that nearly every time I go somewhere, the song currently playing ends just as i arrive?

Somewhat seriously, I just wrote a thing - evidently a church roof split, right down the middle, in a storm, letting a beam of light shine in, perfectly illuminating the cross at the head of the church - and I said... 

"People - "I'd believe in God if he gave me a sign," 

Also: 
"People, "That is just a coincidence." 

Maybe God is talking to you, Nurb. 

There was a movie about this, I think. Steve Martin... Signs? Where the Street Signs on the LA Highways were giving him divine signs, and he just wrote it off to "bullshit." 

But it was actually divine. 

But it could also be Ai bullshit. I haven't checked that far. It confirms my preconceptions - so why dig further? 

Or just staged.  Or 'art' ( doesn't have to be AI.. people have been faking things for generations, AI just makes it easier for the unskilled to do so )

So today is the 250th anniversary of the so-called 'great experiment' of forcefully swapping out a Monarchy for a Plutocracy, marketed as a Republic.   Yay? 

I realize its summer and it gets hot.  But really.. Mother nature, can you lay off a little bit? 90 heat index when its dark.. like at 11 pm is a bit overkill...

If this is a voluntary union of states, why did Abraham Lincoln refused to acknowledge a state's right to secede and choose to kill them instead? 

Not a fan of politicians as we all know, but, Washington was right. In a lot of ways.  Oddly, we were never taught his exit speech in school, just now running across it.
