Vehicle to Grid
No, they’re not. I’m an EV advocate, but I’m not a liar.
V2G (vehicle to grid) may lie in our future, but we’re nowhere near to achieving it.
Well Here We Are
If you’re looking for an indication as to how far the United States has fallen, what our president said at left here is a good measure.
To call it “childish” is an insult to little kids everywhere.
What the Speaker of the House Does
Oh, he’s simply a liar, to be sure. But let’s give him credit: that’s his one and only job, i.e., to sow complete BS into the minds of those least able to process it and see it for what it is.
He’s the male version of Karoline Leavitt: quite talented at lying at every turn to support the criminal-in-chief.
Science and Religion
People are free to believe what they want, but there are various points at which all this crosses the line, e.g.,
- Teaching creationism in school as biological, geologic, or astronomical science, or
- Convincing people that thinking for themselves is the work of the devil.
The human species has enough stupidity floating around in it without injecting more.
Why Must We Be So Dishonest?
A 2024 state audit revealed that California spent $24 billion on homelessness programs between 2018 and 2023 but did not consistently track whether this spending reduced homelessness. The money is not physically “missing”; rather, the state failed to collect sufficient data to evaluate the effectiveness of the funds.
If you are implying that Gavin Newsom misappropriated these funds, you are a liar, and a revolting human being.
If you infer from this that Newsom is a criminal, you’re a moron, and you’re a huge part of what makes this country so totally dysfunctional.
As the United States Descends Further into Stupidity, We Grasp at Straws
Sure, let’s rewrite the Constitution to placate the hateful idiots we live among.
Admitting the Truth on Memorial Day
It hasn’t been a good last 10 years for those who believe in free speech, rule of law, human rights, and justice.
Maybe we can somehow turn this around.
Right Out of Orwell’s 1984 — the Ministry of Truth
If you’re trying to quantify how completely f***ed up the United States is at this point, I refer you to the meme here.
Was it the left that stormed the Capitol, launched a pointless and illegal war in Iran, worked to stifle voting, indicted political opponents, gave tax breaks to billionaires, cut important government programs, threatened to annex Canada and Greenland, gave Trump, his family, and his businesses immunity from all audits and investigations for any past tax-related misconduct, and made our transportation system and electric grid dirtier?

Is School a Jail Sentence?
We’ve all heard ideas like the one being expressed here, though this one sounds extreme. Jail sentence? Education is exclusively an exercise in pounding in bad habits?
What’s the outcome for students in the very worst of our schools that make no attempt whatsoever to help its pupils learn to think critically? Well, their kids learn to:
- Read and write
- Do math, at least through algebra
- Understand some level of history and geography
- Make friends and get along with others
- Establish independence from the parents
- Gain the qualifications for employment
What’s the alternative? Illiteracy? Social isolation? Child labor? Poverty? Neurotic sloth? Being a burden on society?
Is it a coincidence that the countries with the best educated children are the happiest, sanest and most productive nations on the planet?

Saying Goodbye to All of America’s Top Women
If you’re a competent woman working at the highest echelon in the U.S. government, better start packing your bags.
