Climate Change Disproved By Arson
Nothing to see here. That the fire was devastingly massive, or could as easily have been caused by a lightning strike as a lunatic couldn't have anything to do w/ climate science.Isabel Keane / New York Post:
Man, 71, charged with setting massive Yosemite park fire initially blamed on climate change — A 71-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly starting a devastating massive forest fire in Yosemite National Park that was previously thought to have been caused by climate change.

Fascists For Jesus, Or Jesus For Fascists?
The New Apostolic Reformation, again. Ted Cruz's father is one of these weasels.
Somehow some of these loons have decided that the Keystone State is the key to their kingdom. One problem: Ben Franklin & those demon-worshipping Freemasons messed up William Penn's (loon-imagined) plan.Frederick Clarkson / Salon:
“Unfriending” America: The Christian right is coming for the enemies of God — like you and me — Rising far-right Christian movement linked to GOP calls for “kingdom revolution” led by an “army of believers” — “You've got a friend in Pennsylvania!” was the theme of the state's ad campaign to promote tourism in the 1980s.
"Other gods". Oooh, spooky, H.P. Lovecraft. Go ahead, call us all demons while you're at it.Pierce and Sheets write that they seek to restore Penn's original, divinely inspired pre-constitutional utopian vision. But they say the holy seed was contaminated in an epochal and inexplicable twist of fate — and they know who's to blame.It's an old villain: the fraternal order of Freemasons, whose origins go back to stonemason guilds of the 13th century, and which later became a center of Enlightenment thought and leadership in the 18th century.
Pierce and Sheets view the Masonic order (a venerable target of right-wing conspiracy theory) as an occult religion, contaminating Christianity and its leaders and obstructing the advance of the Kingdom of God:
We see the contamination of the seed with the leaders of the Masonic order — such as Pennsylvania's own Benjamin Franklin. As a result, the holy seed of the gospel began to be mixed with the esoteric philosophies of Freemasonry. Today the lodge itself lists many Blue Lodges in the State. The result is that thousands, some serving in leadership in the church, have made pacts with other gods.
And in conclusion,
Not precisely that, but that doesn't mean it isn't true.Did Sinclair Lewis say, "When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross"?
Will This Result In More Views?
Or will everything continue to be futile & pointless, including breathing?

Chris Christie: Pimp Or Ho?
Is the gov. making money, or just taking it from suckers & chumps?The Business of Being Chris Christie — Mr. Christie left the governor's office in New Jersey and set out to, as he put it, “make money.” He successfully traded on his political profile — and on his ties to the man he now wants to defeat. — Nick Corasaniti, who reported from New Jersey …

B.O.H.I.C.A.
It Never Stops For Long, Does It?
No threat to current recipients yet, but would it surprise anyone if the cult starts claiming inflation's over & benefits should be cut?Prem Thakker / New Republic:
Republicans Are Bringing Back Their Plan to Gut Social Security and Medicare … Republicans have claimed over and over again that they are not trying to cut Social Security and Medicare. Heck, Joe Biden got them to agree they would not make cuts to the programs in a memorable verbal maneuver during his State of the Union speech earlier this year.And yet, the Republican Study Committee (of which some three quarters [sic] of House Republicans are members of [sic]) just released its desired 2024 budget in which the party seeks to, you guessed it, cut Social Security and Medicare.
Perhaps Republicans think there'll be an increase in ice floes for the wretched to float away on once the icecaps start melting.
Robots: Threat Or Menace?
I've seen this little sucker once before (plying the same route, too) & this time I arsed myself to follow & shoot it.Pardon SONY's shitty auto-focus.Moves at a good clip (Faster than I could keep up & hold the shot) but seems exceptionally careful at intersections, resulting in interminable shots that Bugger forced me to upload to YouTube because they're too big to upload directly to Bugger. C'mon, Google!I assume one needs a code or a crowbar to get the goodies. Next time I see one I'll give the lid a try.
Could one be tricked into knocking down a pedestrian so the hell could be sued out of some corporate entity?
Behind the times on this too: Here's a local guy who's been bullying the 'bots since 2022. Or maybe I'm not late on the uptake, & there weren't any around here until recently.
Oh, it's Uber, always looking to eliminate humans. Thousands on the streets? Sounds like free food for those who dare. Crowbars for the homeless!
More fun: Imagine a bomb inside when it was surrounded by coppers. Almost surprised they didn't shoot it.
