Just like 2020. If we have a civil war they can scrap the constitution. Without civil war they might dismantle the constitution but it remains. They have been trying to start the civil war for at least 5 years. We must not allow it even though everything in me wants to fight.

Me esborrachei de rir deste texto (autor anônimo):
Estou numa idade em que cuidar da saúde virou um esporte radical.
Se como açúcar, a glicose sobe. Se como sal, a pressão sobe. Se vejo o preço dos remédios, sobem as duas.
Se bebo água, vou ao banheiro a cada cinco minutos. Se não bebo, fico desidratado. Já estou pensando em colocar uma televisão no banheiro e assumir aquilo como sala de estar.
Se como, engordo. Se não como, fico fraco. Se como só salada, fico triste. E, se fico triste, como.
O médico mandou ouvir meu corpo. Fui ouvir: é só reclamação. Parece reunião de condomínio.
Se faço exercício, no dia seguinte preciso de ajuda para sentar. Se não faço, preciso de ajuda para levantar. Estou pagando academia para descobrir de qual jeito prefiro sofrer.
Se durmo muito, as costas doem. Se durmo pouco, viro um zumbi. Se durmo de mau jeito, passo três dias olhando para a esquerda.
Aliás, descobri que é possível se machucar dormindo. Antigamente eu tinha que cair de bicicleta. Hoje basta escolher o travesseiro errado.
Se tomo café, não durmo. Se não tomo, não funciono. Meu organismo está igual carro velho: demora a pegar e, quando pega, ninguém sabe o que está fazendo aquele barulho.
De manhã, eu já não acordo… eu ressuscito. Primeiro abro os olhos, depois confiro quais peças vieram junto. Sento na beira da cama e espero o sistema reconhecer os joelhos.
E a memória? Está ótima! Só não lembro onde deixei.
Outro dia entrei num cômodo e esqueci o que ia fazer. Voltei para lembrar e esqueci de onde tinha vindo. Aproveitei que estava em pé e fui ao banheiro.
Mas precisamos levar a vida com leveza. Ficar sozinho e sem conversar não faz bem.
Comentei isso com o micro-ondas e a torradeira enquanto tomávamos café. Os dois concordaram. A torradeira até ficou emocionada e pulou o pão.
Com a máquina de lavar eu não converso mais: ela distorce tudo e depois fica dando voltas no mesmo assunto.
A geladeira é fria, mas reconheço que é a única que acende quando me vê.
O ferro de passar é muito esquentado. O forno também. E o aspirador só aparece para sugar a minha energia.
Meu melhor amigo agora é o sofá. Ele me acolhe sem fazer perguntas. O problema é que depois não quer me soltar.
Então vamos rir enquanto ainda lembramos da piada!
Quanto às fases da vida, adotei uma classificação bem simples:
Até os 50, a gente faz planos.
Depois dos 50, faz exames.
Depois dos 70, compara os resultados com os amigos.
Depois dos 90, pode comer o bolo inteiro: quem quiser reclamar vai ter que chegar até lá primeiro!
E agora vou encerrar porque levantei para fazer alguma coisa.
Se alguém souber o que era, me avise.

My American friends, a former United States Marine named Stephen Lara stood on the shoulder of a highway in Nevada while state troopers loaded his entire life savings into their patrol car.
Lara had honorably served his country in the Marine Corps. In February 2021, he was driving from Texas to California to visit his two daughters, carrying $86,900 in cash inside his backpack because he did not trust banks after losing his job during the pandemic lockdowns.
He kept every single paper ATM and bank withdrawal receipt inside the bag to prove the money was earned honestly.
Nevada Highway Patrol troopers pulled him over on Interstate 80 for allegedly following a truck too closely. When Lara answered their questions politely and told the truth about his savings, troopers searched his car, found zero drugs and zero weapons, and never charged him with a single crime.
They took every dollar of his $86,900 anyway.
Under a system called civil asset forfeiture and federal equitable sharing, state police handed Lara's cash to the federal Drug Enforcement Administration so the local agency could pocket up to eighty percent of the veteran's life savings for its own budget.
It took months of public lawsuits by the Institute for Justice before the government finally returned his money.
Americans, I want to ask you from the bottom of my heart: how can a Constitutional Republic allow government agencies to rob an innocent Marine veteran on the side of the road without ever charging him with a crime?

Poland takes a seat at the G20 for the first time, as top diplomats from the world’s leading economies gather to discuss geopolitical tensions and global economic challenges.
And @sikorskiradek is seated right next to Rubio.
A place at the table — and right next to the U.S.

For fourteen years, everyone thought U.S. Air Force Technical Sergeant John Chapman died in the first two minutes on top of a freezing 10,000-foot mountain in Afghanistan.
Then modern image technology unlocked the thermal camera footage recorded by a Predator drone circling high in the clouds on March 4, 2002.
When Pentagon investigators watched the enhanced screen, hardened combat generals broke down in tears. Because the video proved that after everyone else had left the mountain peak, John Chapman woke up alone in the snow and fought an entire army by himself.
That night on the peak of Takur Ghar, thirty-six-year-old Chapman, a father of two little girls from Connecticut, had charged uphill through thigh-deep snow alone to silence an enemy bunker and save his pinned-down team. Hit from a second bunker, he fell motionless. Believing he was dead, the surviving team was forced to retreat down the ridge.
Chapman was not dead.
The drone footage showed him regaining consciousness in the pitch-black snow, surrounded on three sides by enemy fighters, with nine separate wounds in his body.
In total darkness, with no comrade beside him and nobody on earth watching except a silent camera in the sky, he refused to surrender. For more than an hour, he fought from inside the bunker, killing an enemy fighter in bare-handed close combat when they tried to rush him.
Then, at dawn, Chapman heard the heavy thump of rotor blades in the mist.
An American Chinook helicopter carrying twenty-three U.S. Army Rangers was flying straight toward the peak to rescue him, right into the sights of an enemy rocket launcher.
Chapman knew that if he stayed safe inside the rock bunker, those twenty-three young Americans in the helicopter would be blown out of the sky.
So on the thermal video, investigators watched John Chapman deliberately climb out of the bunker, stand up tall in the open snow, and fire into the enemy positions to draw every machine gun on the mountain onto his own chest.
He died in the snow as the sun rose, shielding the incoming helicopter with his life.
True bushido is what a warrior does when he thinks nobody will ever know his story. The sky was watching, John. And America will remember your name forever.

The @GOP must be thrilled that 11 days before elections, we learn that the Trump family secretly orchestrated a deal to allow Russians to drill Alaska in exchange for a $25 billion "investment" funneled through their proxies.

Under Greg Abbott’s leadership, more than 170 Texas public schools have closed in the last three years alone.
For the sake of our children, Greg Abbott needs to go.

Note well that formerly well-respected author Isaacson features Elon Musk and Peter Thiel in his podcast debut, back to back, framed as “The Builders” and sponsored by one of Thiel’s companies. Way to squander any respect anyone ever had for you. Just egregious.
Peter Thiel says Apple did nothing after Steve Jobs: "Elon or Steve Jobs are way better for society than Tim Cook"
"It's an extraordinary story but yes, in my telling, it did nothing new after Jobs. And there are all these metrics we can look at. It was by far the lowest dollar spend on R&D, by far the largest on share buybacks. It was just this pure, well-run value stock."
"Tim Cook, he was the anti-Jobs. He was the zero charisma, efficient operator. And then it turned out, yeah, the mobile phone was this giant invention. There was not that much more to do. And then it was just scaling and branding and building it out over 15 years or whatever."
"If you say what's good for the shareholders, they both can be good. But I would still say somehow, Elon or Steve Jobs are way better for society than Tim Cook."
