Dr. Keynes Was Right: Thought For The Day

Kent State Leads by 2 - Let's Go MAGA!! Ya couda had #3 on 2/2

The world is not linear.
Smart people vote with their feet. [you betcha]
-- Donald Hughes McElhone, Ph.D.[statistics, Iowa State]/1975

This is the through line from minstrelsy to Truth Social, and the intent is identical: to strip Black people of their humanity for political entertainment.
-- Quentin James/2026 [and MAGA just luv it!! they know they're The Bestest People]

Better A.I. would remember what it learns, just as humans do, and squeeze more work from each watt. Tech companies spend billions of dollars running large language models that don't learn while they run.
-- Carl Benedikt Frey/2025 [sounds like AI/LLM backed by some RDBMS which stores the learning? sound familiar?]

There's not a single example of things working out for the appeaser.
-- Nicolle Wallace/2024 [like this? the next extortion is on the way]

Effective with the 2026 mid-term elections, military proctors will be stationed at every shithole Blue city polling place, demanding to see a current, valid United States of Alabama passport. No passport, no vote. I am the dictator.
-- Donald J. Trump by Executive Order, this day 7 December 2025 [let's not wait that long and Chris Murphy and this and Steve]
[I]t's election subversion, not cancellation, that is the real authoritarian move. The goal is to keep elections going but without unseating those in power.
-- Sean Morales-Doyle/2026 [Ayatollah 49% Don^©: "I won with 98.6% of the vote!!]

As mass production has to be accompanied by mass consumption; mass consumption, in turn, implies a distribution of wealth -- not of existing wealth, but of wealth as it is currently produced -- to provide men with buying power equal to the amount of goods and services offered by the nation's economic machinery.
-- Marriner Eccles/1951

This Week's thought

Of these four, the unraveling of Trump's mind is the primary one, leading to all the others. Narcissists sometimes get worse with age, as their remaining inhibitions fall away. The effect is bound to be profound when the narcissist happens to be president of the United States.
-- David Brooks/2026

See you next week in a brand new show^{©Heckle and Jeckle}

Thought For The Day - 20 February 2026

Well... boy howdy!!! The Gang of Six didn't prevail. The three most rabid members dissented, to be expected. What is hilarious is that The Trippy Three complain

[Kavanaugh] noted discussion at oral arguments about how such a refund process was likely to be a "mess."

Well... it was Ayatollah 49% Don^© who made the mess. "Clean up on aisle 666!!" Any fifth grader knows from his/her Social Studies class which branch has taxing and tariff power. It ain't El Jefe.
