2·24 minutes agoAs usual, Trump claims credit for something he had nothing to do with:
YouTube links aren’t allowed, news sources only.
US Internal news, not World News.
3·9 hours agoYeah, regular communication with North Korea would likely get you on a list. :)
South Korea.

This is why you don’t re-use needles folks!
Buddy of mine used to teach English in Korea, we sent stuff back and forth all the time.
Who they are:
“ASEAN is made up of Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. An 11th country, East Timor, is set to join soon.”
Why the Secretary of Defense should know who they are:
“ASEAN members Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia and Brunei are locked in maritime disputes with China over its claims of sovereignty over virtually all of the South China Sea, one of the world’s most crucial waterways for shipping. Indonesia has also expressed concern about what it sees as Beijing’s encroachment on its exclusive economic zone.”
They’re fast, faster than you can imagine, don’t look away and don’t blink. Blink and you’re dead.
you can’t run on the status quo when the status quo isn’t working for people.
That was the thing that killed me about the Biden campaign. People literally told Biden the economy sucked and they were hurting. They wanted Clinton’s “I feel your pain”. They wanted Carville’s “it’s the economy, stupid!”
They got “What are you talking about, Jack? Economy is doing GREAT! Best in the world! We recovered! It’s over!”
Then, when asked what she’d do different, Harris responded “I can’t think of anything, really.”
How about this…
“I’d have more empathy when people come to me outlining the challenges they are facing or the failures of the administration. There are things Biden absolutely could have done better, and I will do better.”
I’ll just say this, I DID read the details and it is incredibly, deeply fucked up. Fucked up to the point I’m not ashamed to say I’d like to see Gaiman criminally charged. If you do not know, then you’re better off for not knowing.

It does raise the spectre of “how much did Terry know?” I really hope he was blissfully ignorant of all of it because, frankly, it’s more than I personally ever wanted to know.
Will likely be similar to this:
Machined badge reading “Built Not Bought”.
My dad used to put them on the cars he built.
That’s actually a complicated story…
It goes back to a book called “Holy Blood, Holy Grail” back in 1982.

Then you have Foucalt’s Pendulum (1988) - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foucault’s_Pendulum

My choice would be to teach English literature, finances made me teach all manner of computer classes. :)
