It’s all part of the plan (sort of)

Featured image by Kristina D.C. Hoeppner. Follow the link for more of this artist’s work. I am going to use this featured image for all of my speculative posts, because I recognize how easily people can just lump my speculation into “conspiracy theory” and subsequently dismiss it.

There will always be men like you…

Time for a rant ladies and gentlemen… I am reminded of Loki’s rant from The Avengers, when he surrounded the people in Germany… Authoritarianism, totalitarianism, fascism, control and domination have been a part of the human condition from time immemorial.

Realistic expectations…

Governor Newsome will stay Governor. I’m unsurprised. Realistically when the state got so crazy that it became nearly impossible for the little guy to succeed, most of the Republicans and moderates have abandoned ship.

Definition of Insanity

Featured image from Expressive.com. Check out the site for more info on IT stuff (if you’re into that sort of thing…) Today is the California Gubernatorial Recall Election.
