Trump delivers a nothing Burger again...


Well… that was exactly what we were promised—another serving of absolutely nothing.

Last night’s speech produced no credible evidence, no bombshell revelations, and no surprises. Just another performance designed to keep the conspiracy machine humming and the most devoted members of his base convinced that this time the proof is right around the corner.

Looks like it’s nothing burgers again, kids.

On FaceBorg I Read:
This is your reminder to record your mama. Record her around the kitchen, ask her why she used chicken broth instead of water, or why she does or doesn’t use velveeta and record that. Record her fussing about the same old stuff like she always does, prank her and record that. Record her funny sayings and her bits of advice. Ask her to tell you about the day you were born and record her face as she lights up remembering. Record her telling you to put some socks on that baby and when she tells y’all don’t go in her pots without washing your hands. Ask her questions, both serious and silly ones, and record her answers. Play her favorite song and when she starts dancing/singing, yep, you guessed it… record it. Make her laugh…I mean REALLY laugh and for the love of God, record that, too. And take lots of pictures of and WITH her, even when she tells you she’s not dressed for pictures. Take them anyway. Record it anyway. And when you get the chance, tell her you know she did her best with what she had and her best was always enough. And if you want, record that, too.
I hope this hits you in just the right spot and you take heed, because the day will come when there is a longing so deep to just hear her voice, her laugh, see her as she was…and when that day comes, you’ll pull out your recordings and feel just a little bit of her again

I saved all my father's emails... during his last years we bought him an Apple and he used it daily to chat with the family... precious... he got to see movies of his great grandchildren... etc etc etc

My Father and I had a Couple of Adventures during his last years... I drove him around and we explored many interesting places... including... Apollo Heights in Saratoga, California. A Subdivision that he Created... He bought the Bare Land, had water, electricity and a road built... and then he sold plots for people to build houses overlooking the Santa Clara Valley...

Chuck Schumer's Words after the Government Funding Bill was Passed were Memorable.

Madam President, it has been a day full of twists and turns, but the American people can breathe a sigh of relief. There will be no government shutdown. Democrats have said from the start that the only solution for avoiding a shutdown is bipartisanship, and we are glad that Speaker MCCARTHY has finally heeded our message. In the end, more Democrats supported this bill in the House than Republicans, proving bipartisanship was the best answer all along. I want to thank my colleagues here in the Senate, especially our appropriators, the Presiding Officer and SUSAN COLLINS and Leader MCCONNELL. Our bipartisan work in the Senate set the tone for the bill we are about to pass. Our bipartisanship made this possible and showed the House that they had to act. We will keep the government open for 45 days with a clean CR at current funding levels, and we avoided all of the extreme, nasty, and harmful cuts MAGA Republicans wanted. No 30 percent cuts across the board; no 30 percent cuts to things like healthcare, to the Social Security Administration, to the nutrition programs for kids; full reauthorization of the FAA until December 31; and the poison pill amendments, of which there were scores—MAGA-inspired riders—were all removed from the bill. After trying to take our government hostage, MAGA Republicans won nothing. So one more time, it is good Speaker MCCARTHY finally—finally—heeded our message that bipartisanship was and is and remains the only way. He could have made this decision weeks ago. Now, I have said from day one, this is a bridge CR, a temporary solution, not the final destination. We will not stop fighting for more economic and security assistance for Ukraine. Majorities in both parties support Ukraine aid, and doing more is vital for America’s security and for democracy around the world. But this CR is still very good news for the American people. Today, MAGA extremists have failed, bipartisanship has prevailed, and both parties have come together to avert a shutdown. Once again, thank you to Leader MCCONNELL, Appropriations Chair PATTY MURRAY, Vice Chair SUSAN COLLINS, and Members on both sides of the aisle who came together. Today’s CR would not have been possible without the Senate’s good work. The Senate showed that bipartisanship was the only way, and the same will be true again in 45 days.

Open the doors of perception... Portrait of Gregory Vanderlaan

"OFFICIAL" Knowledge of the World: AI Overview by Google:

What does the SG stand for in the Gibson guitar?
The SG in Gibson SG stands for "solid guitar". The Gibson SG is a solid-body electric guitar that was first released in 1961. It was designed in response to the success of the Fender Stratocaster. The SG is still in production today and is considered one of the most enduring guitar designs. 

What is the meaning of the song Quinn the Eskimo by Bob Dylan?
Bob Dylan's song "Quinn the Eskimo" is about an Eskimo named Quinn who prefers a relaxed lifestyle and brings joy to people. The song's narrator describes everyday life as pointless and unnecessary, and says that Quinn is different.

What is the main advantage to the Grateful Dead's wall of sound public address system?
The main advantage of the Grateful Dead's "Wall of Sound" public address system was that it allowed the band to hear exactly what the audience was hearing because the speaker arrays were placed behind them, eliminating the need for separate stage monitors and providing a clear, distortion-free sound with each instrument having its own dedicated speaker set, preventing audio interference between instruments; essentially acting as its own monitoring system.

Why are there two microphones used in the Grateful Dead wall of sound?
The Grateful Dead's "Wall of Sound" utilized two microphones for each vocalist to effectively cancel out feedback by using a technique called "differential microphone" where one microphone is wired in reverse polarity to the other, meaning when combined, the sound coming from the speakers (which could potentially cause feedback) is cancelled out while only the vocalist's signal remains amplified; essentially, the second mic acts as a noise cancellation mechanism.

What caused Tommy to become deaf, dumb and blind in the who's rock opera?

In The Who's rock opera Tommy, Tommy becomes deaf, dumb, and blind after witnessing the murder of his father by his stepfather:

The murder
Tommy's father, Captain Walker, goes missing and is presumed dead. Years later, he returns home to find his wife with a new lover, and kills the lover in front of Tommy.

The aftermath
Tommy's parents try to convince him he didn't see or hear anything. Tommy begins to disassociate and becomes deaf, dumb, and blind.

Tommy's development
Tommy relies on his sense of touch and imagination, and develops an inner psyche. He becomes a pinball champion and a rock star-like deity. He eventually regains his senses and starts his own religion, but is later discarded by his disciples.

Tommy was written by Pete Townshend and explores themes such as the cult of personality, celebrity culture, sexual abuse, bullying, family trauma, and autism.

What's the meaning of the song with the lyric too many hungry people losing weight?

The lyric “Too many hungry people losing weight” appears in the song “Too Many People” by Paul McCartney from his solo album RAM. The song has multiple interpretations, including:

Social commentary
The song may be a social commentary on taking life too seriously.

Resolution of problems
The song may be about resolving problems in a self-centered world, possibly a reference to McCartney's experience with the Beatles' breakup.

Criticism of John Lennon
The song may be a criticism of John Lennon for leaving the Beatles and sharing his "lucky break" with Yoko Ono. This was something that deeply irked the rest of the Beatles, especially Paul.

Musical extension of Thomas Malthus
Los Angeles Times critic Robert Hilburn described the song as a "musical extension of Thomas Malthus".

HINT! Save $145 by NOT Buying a Ticket to Dead & Co at the Sphere in Las Vegas. I Bet you Would be Able to Hear the Music and See the Lightshow from Outside... and Then you Would be able to Spend that Money on "SOMETHING ELSE!"  I Remember Going to The Further Festival at the Shoreline in Mountain View and enjoying the show from a Grassy Knoll with the poor boys overlooking the Parking Lot... It was a Very Long Concert and about Halfway thru I Walked over to a Chinese Restaurant... and when I got back they were still playing Music... including a Sample of a Train Whistle that totally fooled me... I asked the man sitting next to me: "Where is the Train Around Here?" and he responded: "It's a Synthesizer Onstage..."

I also Remember the Reno Hilton Steve Miller/George Thorogood Concert... outdoors... and we could hear it Great from the Parking Lot... at the end of the concert they played a 12 bar blues song... and both men traded lead guitar riffs... THAT was EPIC.

The REAL Reason I won't be going to the Concert is... I'm too old... Walking a city block is exhausting and I have to sit down... a major adventure is beyond me... The Price is not too high when I consider that Hotel Rooms are VERY Cheap!

What's bad about being Old is: The Rainbow Gathering will be in California this summer and the Idea of a Long Hike and sleeping outdoors is no longer something I want to do...

and then Joe Blow Said on FaceBorg...

First and foremost I am proud to be an American and that the grateful dead originated in the United States of America. I have a college degree in psychology and sociology.in doing so over the years I have learned much about myself as well as the people that surround me. I am tired of making comments of the ken ,Barbies and biffs who choose to attend the sphere shows ...though I may post a humorous pics or two. In reality America is the melting pot of the world. The introduction of the Internet and social media has changed everyones life. As is known change is a constant in this world and we all have to adapt at at one time or another. Yes, I am of the elder generation now but I was young once as were you. I chose to be with the best and wisest people I could meet at dead shows and learned to appreciate the music that feeds us all. As a whole looking at the big picture alot of people still want to experience a dead show because it is a special thing. I respect that. I was blessed to see the band many times front row. I wouldn't trade those memories for anything. I am thankful to feel part of the family. Things have changed. God bless the original members of the band for keeping the fire going. All I ask is that for those newbies to respect the elders who are there truly for the music. It's like a religion. It's not all about the drugs. All comments welcome.

Religion is an existential threat to humanity... because it has been weaponized by those who believe in it. Simply, supporting and believing in it does us no justice in the bigger picture of stewardship of our planet. In fact it holds us back.
Look, the only way out of this is to make it cease to exist. And learn from it. Realize as a populace that it is a form of indoctrination (and therefore brainwashing).
Actually, to me it seems as if religion is already imploding, perhaps with the spread of the abundance of information being passed via the internet. For sure, information is power.
Sometimes I wonder if we will see the discovery of intelligent alien life during our lifetimes. Like out in the open info where no one can deny their existence. Certainly that would be the final nail in the coffin of organized religions, would it not?
'Certainly' may be a reach. Admittedly.
In my mind, the Conservative Movement remains the foremost threat to our democracy and likely our entire future. The climate isn't waiting for us to take ourselves out... it is actively changing before our eyes and we are doing little to change ourselves. It makes us wonder why they would call them Conservatives. They ain't conserving anything other than their dying ideology stemming from systemic racism and religious bigotry. And what we need instead is to move forward and learn how to adapt to what is coming.
There's some certainty in if they win the day though. Because certainly we will never make it if the conservative movement moves takes full control of our government which moves us backwards. We will eventually cease to exist due to our own accord. No, the only way to get through this is to bring truth to the table and vote out those who would have us thrown in prison (just because we vote differently). Vote those out who hide behind the bully (pulpits)... for they are the weak ones.
The most important election of our lifetimes is right around the corner. Definitely resembles good vs. evil in my book (i'm an ex-catholic, recovering).
Bu if we elect rational human beings capable of empathy and critical thinking... who is critical of faith-based philosophies (the cause of so many wars and hardships) - but which can work with the other side a bit - then we stand a chance to see our way through this dark era of the MAGA movement in our country. And perhaps then the world... would follow and revert to more liberal policies which provide safety nets and more thoughtfulness to the climate. And we could tax the churches and use that money to help the local communities and provide shelters to the homeless, with prospects as incentives.
But the ...as evidenced by... examples continue to pop up all around us - on the dailey. And what it really comes down to is we simply need to do more to stop and even reverse the damages we've done to our planet and the species on it.
Enter Science. Because we don't figure shit out by praying.



The sensory input devices on the front and sides of your head are scooping up data from the roil of energy all around you and streaming it to your onboard biocomputer, which uses these vibrations to construct a concept of what the world must be like beyond the confines of its bony encasement.
