I understand that plans for a Trump tower in one of the capital cities are well underway.

Interesting to see Jill Stein and Bernie Sanders both making use of this electoral loss to build their profiles and movements. I guess it’s a good opportunity while the Sith Lords of the DNC are still engaging in denial and blame reflecting. Their powers right now are at their weakest.

Quite a bit like Starship Troopers…

Old school Keynesianism was an entropy exporting machine. Neoliberalism—which apart from some ideological window dressing is indistinguishable from Neoconservativism—is less about exporting it.

They’ve learned that there are exciting new business opportunities when you declare war on yourself.

“They’re having problems with their economy again” [1975] , by Ron Cobb. He was a prolific cartoonist for the alternative press of the 1960s and 70s. The idea seems to be that the military in the US is the social safety net. Whereas other countries invest a lot during crises, the anti moocher rhetoric has gotten so strong that investment has to be disguised. Think new deal, except rather than public works they make tanks and jets. Also soldiers. Once they served their country, ideology basically permits them to be “moochers”.That’s why they have this weird rhetoric about helping their veterans every election cycle or why everyone is culturally compelled to thank soldiers for their service. It’s really a lot like starship troopers 🙂

I guess Trump just auctions cabinet posts off to the highest bidder. Meet Betsy DeVos, Trump’s education secretary. Her special interest is in destroying public education.

Clinton won < 400 out of 3000 counties but two thirds of the US economy.

The guy really is as dumb and incurious as you’d imagine.

He’s pure knucklehead.

This is the world we are now living in. Everyone’s accounts are under constant attack—not just by private hackers but also from state backed actors including your own government.

If you haven’t enabled 2-factor authentication on your GMail account you really are asking for it. Do it today.

Also keep in mind that SMS messages can be redirected with a little social engineering and also require phone network access. Use something like Google Authenticator or even consider getting a FIDO U2F key
