Thoughts Of The Day 05152022

There’s a lot going on at the moment. It seems most of it is bad.

The shooting at a grocery store in Buffalo has a racist and hate-filled overtone. May those who lost their lives be remembered and those who survived have comfort.

Thoughts and prayers are bullshit unless some real action towards a solution is found. It’s an insult to victims and survivors of gun violence in my mind.

Control and power are making some drunk and causing others much pain and suffering.

Women deserve better and they should not be controlled by men and other women.

Love and peace seem to be losing the day. May they not lose in the end.

A cool-down would be nice right about now.

There’s so much more going on out there This list is getting kinda long.

The Jetsons Were Quite Visionary

The Jetsons were right on the money about a lot of things and these examples prove that point.

Vintage Ad – Zoom before Zoom

This is a really cool vintage ad that combines the telephone with the television. It’s like a hardware-based solution for Zoom back in the day. I am a big fan of retro-tech like this.

Quote Of The Day

I stand for all those who feel that the government no longer understands the individual and no longer respects individual rights.
