Bug or feature? I believe their political strategy IS to teach their followers to listen only for emotional content and to disregard logic, science, history, etc. It's not a mistake if it intentionally and successfully convinces their voters to NOT think, and to distrust those who ask them to.

Oh, this is just beautiful. Holding TFG accountable, right before the election? You bet. www.quora.com/profile/Blue...

This is precisely why my father carried a miniature voice recorder with him, the way people now carry a cell phone. There are apps you can set to record only when you're talking, so you don't have to touch it

Yup

Old line from author Mark Twain, applied to present day Trump: You take the lies ou5 of him, and he'll shrink to the size of your hat; you take the malice out of him, and he'll disappear.
Meme, 1950s style photo of father and son: "Son, 4 years ago we were using freezer trucks as morgue and wiping our asses with coffee filters...Anyone who thinks we were better off then is a certified window licker."

When I read to my children (they're adults now) I always started by reading out the cover, including author and illustrator. Never occurred to me *not* to do that.

Sure. But maybe the rhetoric is intended to belittle Trump.

Anti-science and anti-reality are part of the ethos of the Republican movement, like Mao was anti-intellectual and anti-education. Republican destruction of American public schools is also part of this. bsky.app/profile/shul...

The parking lot at my workplace is partially covered with solar panels and it is a very useful setup; beside the power generation, the panels keep the cars cooler and also act as a rain shelter.
