With my daughter 2017

I'm a retired software engineer, divorced for 10 years or so, with one grown daughter who lives back in NY. I was raised Jewish, rejected that (the religion not the culture), and lived most of my life as an atheist. I’ve developed a serious Buddhist practice over the last few years and spend a fair amount of time on meditation and Buddhist studies.

I’m pretty liberal and would avoid getting involved with anyone who is into conservative religion or politics. Being a Trump supporter is an absolute deal-breaker for me.

Conservative Christians Claim Ocasio-Cortez Is A Witch Leading Attack Against Trump | Michael Stone
jerry99 comments on Feb 24, 2019:
Peasant 1: A witch! We have found a witch! Can we burn her? Belvedere: How do you know that she is a witch? Peasant 2: Because she looks like one! Witch: I am not a witch! I am not a witch! They dressed me up like this, and this is not my nose it is a false one! [Belvedere pulls off the false nose and opens his helmet] Peasant 1: Well, we did do the nose, and the hat. Peasant 2: She has a wart. Belvedere: Why do you think that she is a witch? Peasant 2: Well, she turned me into a newt. [Belvedere gives him a disbelieving look] Belvedere: A newt? [Silence] Peasant 2: Well I got better. Peasant 3: Burn her anyway. [Yells of "Burn her!"] Belvedere: There are ways of telling whether she is a witch. Tell me, what do you do with witches? Peasants: Burn them! Belvedere: Now, what do burn besides witches? Peasant 3: More witches! [receives a punch from Peasant 1; silence] Peasant 2: Wood? Belvedere: So, why do witches burn? [more silence] Peasant 2: Because there made of wood? Belvedere: So, how do you tell if she is made of wood? Peasant 3: Build a bridge out of her! Belvedere: Ah, but cant you also build bridges out of stone? Peasant 3: Oh, right. Belvedere: Tell me, does wood sink? Peasant 1: No, it floats. Belvedere: What also floats in water? [lots of yelling and many wrong and random answers including very small rocks] King Arthur: A duck! Belvedere: Exactly! Peasant 2: So if she weighs as much as a duck she is made of wood. Belvedere: And therefore? Peasants: A witch! Belvedere: We shall use my largest scales. [Having been revealed to weigh the same as a duck, therefore proving her a witch, the crowd goes insane] Witch: It's a fair cop.

It's about the tribalism. When one of your people says something stupid, you tend to make excuses for it or blame it on the situation. But when it's the other guy, it's because they're innately evil. In the Trump era it's been taken to extremes -- when the facts say something critical, it's fake news, or there's a conspiracy, or it's someone else's fault. Yes, you can find example in Obama or Hillary but nothing compared to what we've seen the last two years. It's NOT fake news. it's NOT because he inherited a huge mess, etc. -- it's because he's totally incompetent and a lifelong crook!

jerry99 comments on Feb 15, 2019:
Reddit's always fun. Some good comments: Things I learned from the speech: Obama was about to declare war on North Korea. The National Emergency was declared because he wants the wall done faster, not because it is a necessity. "I could do the wall over a longer period of time. I didn't need to do this. But I wanted to do it faster." China has the death penalty for drug dealers, and we can do that too, if we have to. He was nominated for a Nobel prize by the President of Japan. Well, I will say that Obama got the best/worst Nobel prize of all time. "Not being George W. Bush". Oh, yeah, you didn't see Obama's evil plan Start ISIS Invade Texas with operation Jade Helm Install gay Sharia martial law War with North Korea. “It actually creates zero precedent,” Mick Mulvaney, the acting White House chief of staff, told reporters on Friday morning. “This is authority given to the president in law already. It’s not as if he didn’t get what he wanted and waved a magic wand to get some money.” Uhhh, isn't that exactly what he did? That is the double standard by which the GOP now wants to play. Republicans can replace judges on federal courts and the Supreme Court, but not democrats. Republicans can vote, but not democrats. Republicans can declare national emergencies over nonsense but not democrats. Republicans can explode the deficit but not democrats. It's almost like he failed to make a deal despite being the best deal maker of all time, really great, like unbelievably great, because he simply made a demand and then made a bunch of threats if he didn't get exactly what he wanted and the Dems wouldn't capitulate. This is EXACTLY what his entire presidency has been. Commit an act and then immediately say it’s not what it is. He’s been doing it since 2015. The fact that 30% of the population falls for it and/or doesn’t care makes me want to set myself on fire.

jerry99 comments on Feb 14, 2019:
The border is 2000 miles long and cuts through a number of wilderness areas and much of it is on private property. Most illegal immigration occurs at at existing border crossings and airport gateways. We are at a 50-year low for border crossings. The cost of the wall and its routine maintenance is in the $50-100 billion range. Illegal immigrants are not the terrorists, murderers, and rapists you've been hearing about but are statistically lower in criminal activity. Many of the young illegals were brought here as children and know no other country. In short, it's a made-up crisis attempting to get Trump's base excited and has nothing to do with national security.

[poem] THE REVENANT by Billy Collins I am the dog you put to sleep, as you like to call the needle of oblivion, come back to tell you this simple thing: I never liked you. When I licked your face, I thought of biting off your nose. When I watched you toweling yourself dry, I wanted to leap and unman you with a snap. I resented the way you moved, your lack of animal grace, the way you would sit in a chair to eat, a napkin on your lap, knife in your hand. I would have run away, but I was too weak, a trick you taught me while I was learning to sit and heel, and--greatest of insults--shake hands without a hand. I admit the sight of the leash would excite me but only because it meant I was about to smell things you had never touched. You do not want to believe this, but I have no reason to lie. I hated the car, the rubber toys, disliked your friends and, worse, your relatives. The jingling of my tags drove me mad. You always scratched me in the wrong place. All I ever wanted from you was food and fresh water in my metal bowls. While you slept, I watched you breathe as the moon rose in the sky. It took all of my strength not to raise my head and howl. Now I am free of the collar, the yellow raincoat, monogrammed sweater, the absurdity of your lawn, and that is all you need to know about this place except what you already supposed and are glad it did not happen sooner-- that everyone here can read and write, the dogs in poetry, the cats and all the others in prose. [/poem]
