Pure solutions researcher. It's not a real problem unless there's a solution approach, but it isn't a personal problem unless I can do something to advance a solution. So there.

    My funny thought of the day is that freedom has become kind of ridiculous in America. The voters only get to pick from benign incompetence, malevolent incompetence, or feckless incompetence. Many of the top politicians check more than one box…

    Look at it this way. They can’t do all their promises. Too many impossible and contradictory. But 10% should be enough to make China #1 within four years. However if the Project 2025 monsters do enough damage, America may not be in the top 10 for anything that matters.

    Wait, I forgot what happened in yesterday’s comic, but now…

    Interesting problem with AIs is that they have no now. Sort of like the “now” of when a book was published for their training data… Humans have too many nows, such as the fake now of reading fiction (including comics) overlaid on our human notion of continuous now.

    But why doesn’t the orange buffoon want to make Mexico into America? It’s big enough for a bunch of states… Must be some nice reason, eh?

    Naw. It’s just local news from a country that still has a functioning government with some republican and democratic principles. Orange Amerika is in a transitional state to full-scale kleptocracy. Better place for the States? “Sorry, we can’t get there from here.”

    Maybe this is the most popular GoComics comic that I’m watching… I hope I can continue watching it after April, whatever that warning is about. The link didn’t reveal anything useful—or attractive for money.

    Most popular of the comics I read, so I’ll ask here… Anyone know what’s happening in April? I followed the link and got nothing. Some paid stuff that didn’t sound interesting, though the thing to worry about is more restrictions on non-subscribers. Maybe I’m going to be sad to miss Calvin soon?

    Replies from people who haven’t read the book need not be written… Maybe that should be “any book”?

    No, that’s also attributed to Lincoln.

    But lots of stuff that is attributed him is probably just later people.

    Latest book on the topic (that I’ve read) is called “The Anxious Generation” by Jonathan Haidt. It’s a broad book though the primary focus is on smartphones from around 2010.
