As a 65 year old man, I am very flattered that so many young Asian women are interested in me on BlueSky. Of course, that's just bullshit. They're just trying to scam me. It's surprising how many males fall for this shit. Anyway, please don't wasting your time and mine. I am not falling for it.

Reading a wonderful book: "A Philosophy of Madness." Definition of insanity: the socially awkward expression of a desire for infinity in a world that defines itself as finite.

I love BlueSky, but the surfeit of bullshit neologisms that I see in people's profiles and posts makes me cringe. It's like the self-importance game that you see on LinkedIn.

How different would Nietzsche's have been if he'd gotten a makeover from the Fab 5 of "Queer Eye for a Straight Guy"? Would Lou-Salome have accepted his marriage proposal? What changes do you think the Fab 5 would have made?

Remarkable. Biden, despite the good he has done, has just fueled greater cynicism in pardoning Hunter. He will be remembered as "Genocide Joe" and now "Jailbreak Joe". However, check out this photo in the article. Looks like Biden has in hand Rashid Khalidi's book, "100 Years War On Palestine".
We haven’t seen a pardon as sweeping as Hunter Biden’s in generations
The “full and unconditional” pardon is aimed at protecting the president’s son from future prosecution by the Trump Justice Department.

Do others think, like me, that Sigur Ros was the most important band of the 90s (and not, say, Radiohead)? This music cleared my head and helped my thinking (and I don't speak a word of Icelandic). Would love to hear from others. www.youtube.com/watch?v=56qk...

This week marks the 46th anniversary of the massacre carried out by Jim Jones against members of his cult, the Peoples' Temple. Tulsi Gabbard is being nominated to the US cabinet, despite the fact that she belongs to a similar cult, The Science of Identity Foundation. www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1YX...

I'm reading "Notre homme à Washington: Trump dans la main des Russes"(Our Man in Washington: Trump in the hands of the Russians) . The author Régis Genté does a more thorough job than Woodward at demonstrating Trump's Russian ties. Will translate occasional excerpt and post here.

Michael Richardson, an African-American artist interested in the Tukegee Airmen, sculpted this piece "Tar Baby vs. San Sebastian", depicting airplanes crashing into one of the airmen. Coincidentally, he died in his studio on the 92nd floor of the World Trade Center on 9/11.
