Daily Dose of Doom Thread

I'm old, Wags, but Stonewall was before my time. The one thing I know for sure about him was that he was a traitor who went to war against America, all to defend the right of southerners to own human beings.

But he was good at it.
If they want name a school after a member of that family, how about his sister, who upon learning of ol' Stoney's death said she "would rather know that he was dead than to have him a leader in the rebel army."

That so many white folks in 2024 are still glorifying treasonous "leaders" is a sad commentary about the strength and endurance of racism in America - and about how fu%ked up things are these days.

Generations of Lost Cause indoctrination is hard to shake.

Currently about halfway through Nuclear War: A Scenario by Annie Jacobs, and would recommend it. I bought it after listening to her interview on Dan Carlin's Hardcore History Addendum podcast.  She interviewed a ton of retired military folks and others in the know re the US nuclear apparatus and policies.  The first 1/3 of the book or so is an accessible, blurby dive into our silos, detection and response capabilities, chain of command, etc.  A very quick read, but I learned a lot.

We've had those here for about three years. As one who isn't a big fan of creepy crawly things, they are gnarly as all get out.  The key is to take them out while they are still small.  A can of Raid and a 4-foot 2x4 to knock down the webs is all it takes.

I don't think healthcare workers should be threatening or insinuating threats about their patients. Violating their oath spells doom

I'm a big advocate of them putting their Scoop posts up on their office walls. Their patients should know what they are getting.

And I know some of "youses" distrust the government. But the best way to combat this is to flag AI videos and, mark them appropriately.

That gives me some ideas
