If All You See…

…is a big, fossil fueled vehicle needed to fight big, ‘climate change’ caused wildfires, you might just be a Warmist

The blog of the day is Da Techguy’s Blog, with a post on preferring the Heinlein universe over the Asimov universe.

Me too. I’ve read pretty much every Heinlein book and short story, some many times. I have a shelf full of them. He would be my favorite scifi writer. I never read that much Asimov.

    Heinlein is pretty good, but falls short of Herbert.

    For newer faces I would point out honorable mentions for Tom Kratman, John Ringo, and Terry Goodkind.

    I see where Biden vowed to appoint a woman of color to assassinate Trump. He stated that “black women are just as smart and capable as white men”. “Have you ever seen one fight over cold fries?” he added. “If you don’t want Trump dead, you ain’t black!” were his parting words as he fell down the steps.

      Should reference the Babylon Bee, the right wing version of The Onion, although much less clever.

    Asimov and Heinlein are both brilliant. I read several of Heinlein’s juvenile series novels in jr high. Later read “Stranger in a Strange Land”, one of the best of all time. Heinlein was a libertarian who thought little of organized religion, if you can grok that.

    I think the guy who labels Asimov a collectivist is overwrought. Just more dichotomous labellng by a right-winger. No nuance – one is either a communist or a free man! Maybe when Trump takes over education he can force Asimov out of schools!!

    As I said, I read a ton of the libertarian Heinlein and only a bit of the “communist” Asimov.

    The chair of the Federal Communications Commission flat-out rejected Donald Trump’s call for ABC to lose its broadcasting licenses over the way its moderators treated him during his debate against Kamala Harris on the network earlier this month. In an interview with Fox & Friends after the Sept. 10 debate, the Republican nominee claimed he’d faced a “rigged deal” in the debate, complaining the moderators were “correcting everything” he was saying while failing to fact-check Harris. “They ought to take away their license for the way they did that,” he said at the time.

    So Donnie gets his ass handed to him by Vice President Harris and wants to shut down the ABC Network. That’s what an authoritarian would do if he had the power, isn’t it. If he’s re-elected “President” Trump would appoint a loyalist to chair the FCC and would pull the licenses of those who offend his sensitivities.

    Sept. 21, 2021

    The White House conceded Monday they were not requiring border crossers to show proof of vaccination, even though the government requires proof of a vaccine or a negative coronavirus test for other travelers into the United States.
    When reporters asked about the apparent double standard on vaccination requirements, White House press secretary Jen Psaki argued that illegal immigrants and migrants crossing the border were not intending to stay in the United States.
    “They’re not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time,” she said, referring to migrants. “I don’t think it’s the same thing. It’s not the same thing.”

    Ah, memories. They’re still in power.https://www.thepiratescove.us/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_bye.gif

    ‘Vote for grandpa’

    “We also have…a very important member of my family. Far more important than Eric or Lara,” Trump joked to the audience. “And her name is Carolina.”

    “And she’s beautiful and she’s sweet and she doesn’t know how evil life is,” he added. “Can I ask Carolina to come up? Is that possible?”
