Computer nerd 4 NASA retired to the Berkshires. Read way too much sci-fi and continental philosophy.

Personal pronouns he/him. Favorite pronouns we/us.

I prefer the days when "take no prisoners" was an idiom, not a Pentagon policy.

Remember how the W Administration had to gin up war fever for months t finally go into Iraq?

Trump just crooks a pinky and the whole GOP bows in instant obeisance, public opinion be damned.

An appropriately scary Republican costume for Hallowe’en. Any shade but black & white terrifies them.

Which Democratic official has been cracking jokes about the attack on Charlie Kirk?

Was it this guy?

I'm old enough to remember Trump and MAGA making fun of Paul Pelosi after he got bashed in the head with a hammer.
