I'm guessing that RSM III is considering this...but he's also "taking the pulse" of America. He knows the naive, explosive trump base will likely have many pockets of revolt...and that would cause a lot of civil unrest. I'm afraid that RSM III's probably going to stall "laying cards on the table" and let the 2020 elections make the decision. I urge all who want DJT gone to buy a dozen of these. (no...I have no affiliation with them) wear them, and if someone asks...offer to share them... https://dqzrr9k4bjpzk.cloudfront.net/images/10483604/580654734.jpg

I moved 3 times since 1985...Once to get closer to a job. A second time to get in to a better neighborhood. A third to get closer to the beach. Each move was accompanied by a nice profit from the first move; so I invested it in to each property. This last one I bought was literally unchanged since it was built (in 1980) so it needed lots of work. $50K and 4 years later...I'm proud to say the property nearly doubled in value. I'm very happy.

Explainer: In Trump-Russia probe, when does collusion become a crime?

Robecology comments on Mar 2, 2019:

Unfortunately; the Russians...and Trump....are experts at covering their tracks. I think the reason that the Steel Dossier was not regarded as valid was simply because all the reporters of that document have either "disappeared" (one allegedly "fell off" a high balcony) or are in hiding. Steel himself is still hesitant to promote his Trump Dossier simply because he's already had to move his family to unknown locations...and he knows they're "after him"...and no governments are offering him protection (he's british). FYI...here's the Dossier...all 35 pages.... -it's a keeper...

...and it's not just Venezuela. In Honduras, up to January 2017, 172 mining concessions had been granted, covering a total area of 7,275 square kilometers, equivalent to 6.47 of the country’s territory. In Guatemala, up to the same date, 55 concessions had been granted, covering an area of 4,143 square kilometers, or 3.81 percent of the national territory. And by May 2017 Nicaragua had granted 146 mining concessions, and is still processing 20 more applications. Altogether, including the pending applications, they cover 11,143 square kilometers, or 8.55 percent of the country. Sad...we still so obviously exploit 3rd world nations....

Robecology comments on Mar 1, 2019:

@ToolGuy; I've read your posts before. This doesn't sound like you. Let me try to understand you better...are you saying this "dirty dozen" are 12 "aspects on the agenda" of Neo-liberals that they oppose or support? You're kidding, right? Please tell me you're being facetious? Tongue-in-cheek? Liberals, progressives, and socialists want regulation. They don't want "open borders". They don't want tax cuts for multinationals. They want unions, not union busting. They don't want tax havens. They want limits to growth. Progressives and socialists are far more cognizant of the effects of growth on climate and social well being than the #religulous conservatives. Are you saying that "neoliberalism" is bad (for Canada)? That they're "in its clutches now"? This sounds like a serious attack using flowery rhetoric on the progressive and socialist movement in America. Take your "dirty dozen" story to the Conservatives page...I'm sure you'll get a lot of readers there who will pretend they understand what you're talking about. Here's the original article - espousing "bypassing dystopia" for Canadians.. http://rabble.ca/news/2018/06/bypassing-dystopia-could-free-canada-clutches-neoliberalism

Robecology comments on Mar 1, 2019:

As we evolved our brains, we connected sanitation with longevity. We see that among the most successfully adaptive mammals, the raccoon is meticulous with its washing habits. But they're not alone about hygiene. Many mammals literally wipe their butts against bushes, shrubs and trees. Some scientists connect "territorial marking" to the practice; but those who didn't "do it" often got sick and died out of the gene pool...not so much because their territory was invaded, but because they developed infections. We took that many steps further by developing indoor plumbing. Sanitized water supplies, bidets, toilets, soaps, and toilet papers. You must know that it was only a couple hundred years ago that the germ theory of disease became well established. Washing and purifying the air and the instruments used for surgery and personal hygiene had #religulous foundations from thousands of years ago because the science behind sanitation wasn't clear...but the wisdom was. The ancient Egyptians were meticulous surgeons. Over 3000 years ago, they mastered the art of "trepanning"....opening the skull - very cleanly and with much purity - to let "demons" escape (and to remove tumors, as well). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trepanning Cooking food goes along those lines; too many raw foods were connected with too many illnesses...cooking was a way of "killing germs" thousands of years before anyone knew what germs were. So ti was with personal hygiene. It just made us live longer, get sick less often. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_theory_of_disease

I am assuming the name for this group is based on the fact that we all want to beat Trump.

Robecology comments on Feb 27, 2019:

We do need to taper off the bashing. It only alienates. We need to empathize with the Trumpster...I've met many; they're just naive folk...not really intentionally ignorant. Watch this video; it explains thier "disability... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rW9R6jgE7SQ

Was anyone else besides me cheering for Cohen? I so wish he would have said, in the middle of those name-calling Rebublican rant machines...."I lied...to protect Trump....just like you're doing now".

I never knew the details of Socrates' death. This was articulate, and interesting. So sad that so many voted him to die. Wisdom creates many enemies...then...and today.

This seems so appropriate for the "chat" I just left, & too often for the site in general.

Around the time of the break, Cohen made an excellent remark. He said, in reply to multiple basic Name-calling from the Republicans...(paraphrasing....not exact words) "Yes, I'm going to jail for lying to congress. Yes; all the facts I've said today are backed by documents and easily provable. And yes; I too, was like you polticians who are lying to cover up the POTUS. I did that for 10 long years. I've been in your shoes. I now regret it. I'm being punished for it...and someday you will be punished, too." Here's a transcript of his report - it's not a NY Times link...it's a direct draft copy. https://int.nyt.com/data/documenthelper/636-michael-cohens-congressional-t/3a1530b333230e775df5/optimized/full.pdf?action=click=Top%20Stories=Homepage#page=1

Being in a relationship is great but having a fall out is hurtful at any age. This to will pass. ?

I ended my first marriage as a young (32 years old) widow. It taught me to recover and move on....so I was then married...and divorced....three more times.

A fun time for all!....or something...

I'd offer a third choice. Accept resignation only if he agreed to reparations and removal of Pence and DJT's entire cabinet. Nancy Pelosi would then be put in as President and would appoint a new cabinet.

Robecology comments on Feb 27, 2019:

Beware. Impeaching Trump is a long process. The Republicans are like Cohen was...blinded by Trump's ambition - oblivious to his lies. They won't vote against him. Impeaching him just puts him on trial. Then he can quit...like Nixon did...and POTUS Pence can then pardon him...and let him go golfing full time on our dime. We dont want impeachment. We don't want resignation. We want to vote the entire administration and his awful cabinet out in 2020. It's ony 19 months away. It will be done. Remember what Goldwater said about Nixon; In a May 1973 interview with Time magazine's Hays Gorey, Goldwater said, "If it can be proved that he lied, resignation would have to be considered. It would be quick. Everything would be over, ended. It wouldn't drag out like impeachment." https://www.politico.com/story/2007/02/when-the-gop-torpedoed-nixon-002680

Robecology comments on Feb 27, 2019:

They wouldn't bother. I honestly think that the flat-earthers were proposed by a group of nerds who knew damned well the earth was round....but who saw how gullible the nation was becoming. Here's a clever "tongue-in-cheek" article from the NewYorker about it... They said "if we can just post some "sort-of/pseudo evidence that the earth was flat...I'll bet some dummies will buy it"....little did they know the depth and breadth of "dumbness" out there...

So many questions.

Robecology comments on Feb 27, 2019:

I must defend Republicanism here. Not today's republicans.....but Republicanism. It's a shame that America's greediest, racist, sexist, #religulous became affiliated with this party. I'm sad. True Republicanism stood for -more careful spending -more scientific (can you believe that?) research. -more cautious progress. Dwight D. Eisenhower was the last great true Republican. He founded NASA. He got us out of the "Korean Conflict" he established the Interstate Highway system (and employed tens of thousands of G.I.'s home from the Korean conflict...including many blacks....to build ti. He even warned....in his last speech before leaving office, of the coming "Military Industrial Complex". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gg-jvHynP9Y This classic Republican president taxed the top 1% at 90% of their income. Either "Republicanism" will die....and the party will "go extinct" ....or they'll re-brand...perhaps as the "Conservative" party.

Plyscrapers ahoy.

Robecology comments on Feb 27, 2019:

I don't buy it. Pie-in-the-sky ecology. Will never happen. Wood is just too recyclable... From the article; "Wood absorbs moisture from the air and is susceptible to rot and pests, not to mention fire." Concrete (cement plus iron and/or steel) is basically Calcium Carbonate - which is organic itself. It needs CO2 absorbing ocean plankton to create the oceanic sludge which, when compressed, becomes limestone which...when mined, becomes concrete. Look at the formula; CaCO3.....Calcium CO2, and oxygen. So, like wood, Concrete is a hardened material made by nature...and, also, a "sink" for CO2. The oceans, too were green in color due to the dissolved iron...which the plankton...by their excretion of Oxygen, caused the creation of iron oxide sediments...where we get the iron for our "concrete". Before that oceans were cool enough (and the cloud cover dissipated enough) at the birth of our planet..there was no such thing as plankton...so there was no such thing as limestone. The abundant CO2 in the proto-planet atmosphere set the stage for the birth and growth of Phytoplankton...and the deposition of limestone. Nope....wood will never replace concrete.

Good morning!! Ugh

Interesting perspective. I was a 45 year teacher...up almost always before dawn...on the road to work before dawn...arriving late 6 ish/early 7ish....I thought retirement would possibly see the end of caffeine addciton... Long story shortened? Nope! I did go to half-decaf...about 10 years before I retired....too many jitters/PM crash syndrome - and still am a half-decaf person....but I still get up 6 ish..(shoot me...I'm now a chronic morning person)...and have to have my 4 -5 cups per day...

Good morning, everyone! When I was 24, I left my family, friends, home, stability, beautiful city ...

Good question. 2 Possibly craziest things I did. 1. Stay devoted to my first wife who, dying of cancer, became pregnant from another man. I helped her through the abortion...and even though she didn't live with me supported her in her adventure to "live alone"... 2. Spent far too much money (5 figures) buying a car for a N'er-do-well daughter of a lover...in hopes she'd use the (nearly new) car to drive and visit her mother. She never did. We finally broke up over the holidays. Which do you think was crazier?
