@npub1knz…c73p I wondered if glaciers had anything to do with this shape and, yes! Something called "lithospheric flexure." Now, if only I could grasp this...!

@npub12ez…uyf6 My mother once asked me what I thought of Trump's politics. I told her, "He has no politics. He's not a politician. He's a thief, a predator. That's all he is and all he cares about is stealing."

Ben Rhodes: "...fundamentally, they're all the same: Putin, Netanyahu, Trump, Black Cube, etc. Obviously with differences in tactics and scale. But in the end, it's a bunch of corrupt people profiting off power in a system they've rigged to stay in power, which requires that they intimidate anyone who opposes them. Which is why you touch a nerve." Message to Alexey Navalny.

One thing I've had to think about with authoritarian states is the much higher likelihood of cheating and lying throughout society. China is a dictatorship and where are contaminated metal parts for jet engines coming from? You got it: China. People die under dictatorships, and it doesn't have to be from being a political foe.

@npub1psd…9sr7 Aren't all nation-states pretty much about organized theft? Fascists are just more open and brazen about it.

How long will it take people, and that includes most reporters, too, to realize that Trump is simply a sociopathic maniac? You cannot judge his actions and behavior by ordinary standards because sociopaths are not like most people. You cannot shame him nor can you reason with him. All sociopaths understand is restraint--such as prison--or having all their money taken away from them. That's how you have to deal with them.

@npub1dgc…4yrt What are the astronomers doing up in space? And why is the telescope scanning for them instead of stars and galaxies?

@npub1ccn…czwu @npub15tt…8h8h Every ideology, meaning "religions," too, winds up failing because it insists humans behave in "absolute" ways which is never true. Ideologies are all too limited in vision and those who espouse them resort to violence when it becomes clear the ideology won't work. They cannot face this and treat anyone who points this out as a mortal enemy of theirs.
