Will SCOTUS decide:

Now that I’m 70 I’ve begun to spend the time I used to exercise my body to exercise my mind. Up until the day my body quits functioning I want my brain to be flying at top speed.

If the CIA was willing to overthrow democratically elected leaders in South America and other countries, can we be sure they can be counted on to never do the same here?

What we could use is a loud voice from someone who lived in East Berlin to let people know what it’s really like to live in a police state. And a loud voice from someone who grew up in Iran to educate Americans on what it’s really like to live in a theocracy. Authentic voices, real experiences.

I forgot about Trump abandoning the INF treaty, allowing Russia to increase the number of its intercontinental missles. His administration really was good for Putin.

SCOTUS needs to quit with the abstract hypotheticals and ask if a president has immunity while in office, could Biden order Trump’s immediate arrest and stage a coup to keep himself in office. Keep it real.

When I first joined Lockergnome in 2003, I adopted the persona of the village idiot. It’s seems appropriate to resurrect the title.

We have a lot of time to discuss things that interest us because we aren’t spending all our time blocking bots and trolls like folks do elsewhere.

Wasn’t it just April 24th like a year ago or so?

We've become addicted to speed. Everything fast, fast, no time to waste. No wonder there's so much stress and road rage. Impatience. We can't slow down and enjoy life at a more sedate pace. When I take road trips I like to take backroads. They force me to slow down and enjoy the trip.

He didn’t want to risk the chance that even a few would believe the story and not vote for him.

I asked Alexa an hour ago who the worst person in the Republican Party is and she hasn't shut up yet.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself. Basically, it's made up of two separate words — "mank" and "ind." What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

The end goal of capitalism is a society in which everything is provided for a profit and that profit winds up in the hands of one person. The leaders enact laws advantageous to themselves because even the government is a for-profit venture. Everything’s for sale; your labor, your life, your freedoms.

Yes, I do own a Galaxy Tab S9 FE and a Pixel 7 Pro. I used to enjoy working with gnu/Linux, Windows, Mac, and Google in the Nexus Era. These days my everyday devices are from Apple, but I still enjoy the more customizable Android environment.
