To All of the Folks Out There Who Think that You Can Manage a Modern Industrial Economy On Solar Panels and Wind Turbines
Ya' can't. a) The power density is a small fraction that of nuclear, hydro, and hydrocarbons (you would literally have to pave entire counties to generate the power of just a couple nuclear plants). b) The resource intensity is higher and more costly (the raw materials and energy needed to make just one wind turbine is prohibitive). c) They're simply too unreliable and intermittent to be relied upon (that and the capacity to store such energy is still woefully inadequate). And d) because of this intermittence there needs to be a fossil fuel or nuclear backup, which in the case of coal needs to be fired up constantly in order to be effective. Now, if some genius out there can alter the laws of thermodynamics............
On "Net Zero"
Or as I prefer to call it, "a return to the nineteenth century, but with more starvation".
On Listening to a Candace Owens Tirade at 1.25 Speed (I Was Going to Suggest 1.5 but Baseline Indicated a Lack of Necessity)
Comic relief doesn't even begin to describe it, trust me.

On Our Country Having a $37 Trillion Debt (and Rising Quickly as Our Idiot Politicians Continue to Recklessly Shit Out Multi-Trillion Dollar Deficits Year After Bloody Year) and the Radical Democrats Losing Their Shit Over the Prospect of $55 Billion of Obvious Waste Getting Cut from Our Behemoth Budget
And their retort to this charge is of course, "hey, let's just tax the rich, cuz that's never been tried before." Their go-to solution FOR EVERY PROBLEM (and one that never works in that there's a law of diminishing returns; taxpayers altering their behavior, high-powered tax attorneys outsmarting the government, etc.), in other words.
On John Derek's Forgotten First Wife, Pati Behrs
The dude was a legend. But as most of us film-buffs know, it had little to do with his acting and more to do with the fact that he seamlessly shifted from Ursula Andres to Linda Evans to Mary Cathleen Collins (AKA, Bo Derek), all of them smoking hot and each one a little bit younger than the one that came before. What I didn't know was that he had a wife who preceded the bombshell brigade. Her name was Pati Behrs, a Russian prima-ballerina who was also attractive but in a much more natural and approachable way............and I gotta' tell ya', I'm liking it, a lot (the smile alone buckles my knees). If it was my call, I'd have stayed with her.

On JFK's Obviously Troubled Grandson (or as I Prefer to Call Him, Yet Another Harvard Educated Douchebag) Making an Abject Spectacle of Himself with Not Just His Incessant Trump Derangement but Also Through His Vile Attacks On Joe Rogan and Even His Uncle
He's also video recording these outbursts because as we all know, you definitely want your kids to witness these masterpieces, preferably with some popcorn.
