Remember the old text-only adventure games from the 70's? They only had programmed responses. If you said 'get sword', then ok. But if you said 'get end table', it would just say 'you can't get that' or something. But with AI, any of your inputs could now have a response. Where AI text adventures?

A reminder that U.S. aircraft flying from America and into Europe and elsewhere can be indicative of an impending airstrike anywhere throughout the Middle East. Not just Iran. Because Trump is capable of bombing anybody for any reason at any time. news.sky.com/story/us-mil...

'The Burbs' is playing on YouTube now. Has anyone born in this century even seen this movie? Princess Leia plays a long-suffering suburban cul-de-sac housewife. And in Hollywood movies, cul-de-sacs are where the action and the shit happens. Aliens. Demons. Spies. House parties. On cul-de-sacs.

Not the economy!

Trump says China doesn't have any windmills. While China has the world's largest installed capacity of windmills. More than 560,000 windmill turbines. And installing more all of the time. In other news, Trump says he is not in the Epstein files and has never been on that island.

This is why there won't be any need for a big military build-up, especially navy, in bombing Iran again. It's going to be a political bombing. Just for the cameras and the news. A high profile target. While trying to limit killing any innocent Iranian protestors. Hollywood planning.

Translation: As long as Venezuela will continue to ensure some flow of money into Trump's interests and pockets, Trump will let Venezuela run the country as they wish. No regime change. Another source of U.S. revenue.

Lawmakers are getting 'very concerned' about this. In other news, we are still calling them lawmakers.

This is exactly how it will go with any colonies on Mars. "We don't want to be Earthlings. We don't want to be Americans (or Chinese or Europeans). We want to be Martians."

r/comics is getting intense.

I thought that my retirement years would be spent mowing the grass, walking the neighborhood, playing Stardew Valley, watching Netflix movies, and camping in the RV. It still is that, but it is now interrupted constantly by scenes of horror and instances of insanity.

Trump probably thinks that Greenland is massively, bigly, huge. Because our maps make it look that way. But it's actually smaller than Congo and just bigger than Mexico.

Oh shit. You gotta be fucking kidding me.

Now that I'm going to be snowbirding every winter down in Florida, I need to consider my guns. Taking them with me in the RV seems like it's going to be a major hassle. Looking up the traveling rule for every state in between. I have a feeling that most people don't do that.

They will keep looking for many ways to punish Minnesota. They can't let Minnesota win. Minnesota could escalate by 'suggesting' ways it could withhold federal taxes from leaving the state. Counter punch.

The subject that every nation on Earth is beginning to explore. Even the most neutral of nations. Trump isn't threatening any nations that have nukes. Quite the opposite. Trump is really, really friendly with Russia, China, and North Korea. Best buddies. If you wanna be a buddy, get some nukes.

He's going to do it. The son of a bitch is going to do it. It will be a miracle if we somehow avoid WWIII during Trump's dictatorship. I feel like I should be building a bomb shelter, like from those Popular Mechanic magazine articles in the 1960's. A bomb shelter in every backyard.

"We're just following orders." --- ICE

Her employers support ICE. Her employers fired her for not supporting ICE. Do your employers support ICE?

Do they see Mamdani and AOC as the upstarts who are going to rock their boat and mess up their lives? Do they view ICE as maintaining the status quo that keeps them in power? Do they see ICE as a tool to maintain the two-party system? Even in the minority, they remain rich and powerful.

There's this famous rock in Massachusetts that an English boat landed near and some immigrants stepped out on that rock. They became landowners.

The rich don't fear ICE.

"Multiple oil tankers operating near Venezuela have reregistered under Russian flags in recent weeks...a sanctioned oil tanker leaving Venezuela, the Veronica, recently changed its name to Galileo and its flag to Russia this week in an effort to evade US Coast Guard boarding attempts."

"The embassy noted that the intensive use of the Archers had led to rapid barrel wear, and therefore in 2025 Sweden provided Ukraine with more than ten spare barrels." www.ukrinform.net/rubric-defen...

R'uh r'oh! Exxon is on Trump's shit list now. You can't go telling the truth in front of Trump. Advisors will convince the Exxon CEO to issue a correction tomorrow. Maybe give Trump a model of an oil tanker made out of gold for his desk. That always works.

Difficult to believe that Europe is going to have to waste resources protecting Greenland against an ally's threats. When those same resources could be put to use against Russia and in Ukraine. But here we are. Trump has created an insane mess of the world. And next year China attacks Taiwan.

A thriving Russian metropolis launching the most expensive ICBM's at Ukraine. For the cost of just 1 missile they could probably pave all of their roads.

Yes, it's true. For me it was the 70's, not 80's. Parents did not know where we were all day long. Sometimes in another county riding our bikes. Yes, we all had bikes. But not all night. There was a curfew time. Starting about 9 years old, mine was 10 PM. Be home or be dead.

Trump is going to take her Nobel and then still not do anything for her. She will be voted for most clueless and naive person of 2026.

And it was at this point in my life that I just threw my hands up in the air, sold off everything I own, and moved into a cabin in the mountains of Montana with no Internet or cellphone service. Wood fireplace. Propane stove. Kerosene lamps. Sleep like a baby.

Because it turns out they were just lying grifters.

That's a clue.

I am still having trouble wrapping my mind around the fact that Trump gave China a green light to invade Taiwan. That's a WWIII level scenario.

I need to learn how to photoshop. I have ideas. Plus, I think it'll be funny when I'm lined up against the wall, about to be shot by the Gestapo, and the guy next to me says 'What are you here for?'

Force? This should be interesting to watch unfold.

“We knocked out 97% of the drugs coming in by water, and we are going to start now hitting land with regard with the cartels,” Trump said.

"The War Powers Act is fundamentally a fake and unconstitutional law." --- Vance They are preparing the ground. They are laying the path. Do you see where they are headed?

Rich people think that everyone has a price. Because they know that they have a price for when they sold their souls. So they think everyone else has a price also.
