IT REALLY DOES:  NGO Literally Wants To Replace You.

IDAHO LEADS THE WAY IN CUTTING REGULATION:  How States Can Cut Rules and Regulations—and Make It Stick Idaho’s Two-Step Process That Other States Can Copy.

NO BIG SURPRISES, BUT GOOD TO HAVE THE EVIDENCE:  The Troubles With the H-1B Program.

ON SUNDAYS I DO A PROMO POST FOR (MOSTLY) INDIE AUTHORS. AND SOMETIMES CAN’T SHARE IT TILL MONDAY:  Book Promo And Vignettes By Luke, Mary Catelli and ‘Nother Mike.

On the good side, the death march with moving boxes should end tomorrow. G-d willing and the creek not rising.

TRULY FASCINATING HISTORY:  History Weekend – The Barbary Coast.

A WEAKNESS OF LIBERALS IS THEY ARE TOO ACCUSTOMED TO GETTING BY WITH LAME EXCUSES:  Liberal Podcaster Had the Lamest Excuse for the Alaska Dem Who Called Her Staffers F****ts.

We call that Liberal Privilege.

HELLO, I’M NOT DATA REPUBLICAN: But I would like to highlight a comment on my blog, because it’s something we each can and should do before the midterms. So listen to S. Nelson, please:

Now that SCOTUS is allowing the SAVE list of illegal voters to be used, even though you can’t purge before the election, I’m working with my county GOP chair to set us up to use it for challenges after Election Day. We can data mine it against the list of peopl ewho signed the voter roll in person, or to verify mail in ballots that are counted.

If you haven’t talked to your county GOP chair, NOW is the time.

YOUNG ME WAS ALSO WRONG ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS, AND HAVE HAD TO RECALIBRATE:  Chesterton’s Fence and iced coffee.

THIS I CAN AGREE WITH. ON THE BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP THING:  The Supreme Court’s Error in Trump v. Barbara: Citizenship, Consent, and the Self-Governing Republic – Linda Denno.

DEAR BOB. WHY? CAN WE SEND HIM AND OBAMA TO A DESERTED ISLAND AND LET THEM IMPRESS EACH OTHER, SAFELY AWAY FROM LIVING HUMANS?  The Blairite world of “policy based evidence making”.

I LIVE WITH A COMPUTER PERSON. NONE OF OUR STUFF IS CONNECTED:  Skynet is taking over our critical … refrigerators?

Some of our stuff is supposed to be connected. You have no idea the very strange workarounds we have to get around that. Though, please, explain to me why a cat litterbox no matter how automated its cleaning should be on the net. And imagine the horrors of a cat litterbox hacked by China. (Okay, I made myself laugh, but really.)

THE JAPANESE IS ONE THING, BUT ARE WE REALLY GOING TO LET THE ITALIANS JUMP AHEAD OF US IN WARSHIP PRODUCTION?  The Italian Navy Will Get a Cruiser …this isn’t impossible…

THIS IS UTTER NONSENSE. AI DATA CENTERS ARE NO WORSE THAN OTHER DATA CENTERS:   Data Centers Face Fines, Permit Delays as States Weigh AI Growth Against Local Impacts.

No, they don’t use more water (it’s recycled) or electricity than any other data center. If you think they do, you fell for a Chinese psy-ops to corner AI development. What have I told you about falling for psy-ops? And how many times must I tell you the same thing?

UP FROM THE ROCK:  Starship joins the small club of rockets that achieved orbit on their first attempt. Clowns would want you to believe that SpaceX has failed to reach orbit 13 times before this flight except you can’t fail at what you don’t intend to do in the first place.

DEMOCRATS CAN’T MEME. OR READ CHARTS:  Democrats can be Unintentionally Hilarious Sometimes.

CULTURES UNDER BREAKING STRAIN RETURN TO THEIR FUNDAMENTALS:  The Breaking Point.

This, at all levels, from party to country is going to be the tune of the next few decades. One way or the other is going to be a rough ride. We just can hope for not as rough….

THE MEMES HAVE ARRIVED. YOUR WEEKEND CAN START:  I’ve got Memes, if you have humor.

IT’S AMAZING THE NY TIMES IS CALLING THIS OUT AFTER IGNORING IT FOR YEARS:  National Book Awards branded ‘DEI checklist’ by NY Times columnist for streak of minority winners: ‘Bald politicization’.

ALL THAT THE UN KNOWS ABOUT SOVEREIGNTY IS THAT THEY DON’T LIKE IT:  Trump Schools the UN on Sovereignty. There is no global government, Trump told the General Assembly. Critics seemed surprised.

I AM ENTIRELY UNSURPRISED THAT CAMBRIDGE HAS QUIETLY CHANGED WHAT IT IS INVESTIGATING WRT JASON ARDAY:  Cambridge is no longer planning to investigate Jason Arday’s academic record or the university’s decision to hire or cover for him. Instead, the investigation will focus on “his welfare, his care, his well-being” and “whether the school offered him sufficient support amid accusations that he plagiarized.”

THIS IS THE 21^ST CENTURY I’VE BEEN EXPECTING:  Laser Weapons Are Now Taking Down Drones in the Middle East — and at the Southern Border.

CAN YOU BE MORE SPECIFIC? ALL SEGMENTS OF ‘THE VIEW’ ARE MIND-NUMBINGLY STUPID:  ‘View’ Co-Host Wonders Why Patrick Clancy Divorced Lindsay in Mind-numbingly Stupid Segment.

GOOD, VERY GOOD:  New Texas Rare Earth Leases Expand U.S. Critical Minerals Production.

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE STOP PISSING ON OUR HISTORY:  …an American hero and the horrid state of history… Talking of Nathan Hale.

SOCIALISTS ALWAYS KILL THE ECONOMY:  Human-caused Global Warming might be a hoax, but in Seattle, Economy Cooling is a fact of Socialist life.
