Liberal, humanist, skeptic. If you're not real, please don't bother talking to me. I'm old, I like science, art, good music,cannelés de bordeaux and odd and interesting people. And proper punctuation.

McGovern: Well, he said a lot of crazy shit today. I think it’s time to take the keys away from grandpa. He doesn’t seem like he’s all there.

Watching this historic meeting between all the European leaders, Ukraine and the US and Trump just said to the Finnish president, "You look better than I've ever seen you look" because he did not even remember him. Good grief, what an embarrassing idiot he is.

The meeting was a disaster for everyone except two people. Trump got his photo op and his ego boost. Putin got his photo op, whitewashing of war crimes and no sanctions. No one in Ukraine, Europe or the United States benefited in any way.

** Evidence You Might Be In A Cult ** You follow one charismatic Leader. In your Leader’s mind, your Leader can do no wrong. In your mind, your Leader can do no wrong. Your Leader demonizes dissidents & outsiders. Loyalty's the ultimate measure of your devotion. You don't know you're in a Cult

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet. Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night. So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

So the Conservatives are punishing women for being traditionally conservative (taking her husband’s name) and not leaning towards feminism (keeping her maiden name)? Proof that no matter what, they see women as second class citizens and not worthy of the right to vote.
