Midnight Meme Of The Day!
*by Noah* Mitch? Bitch? It's all the same, especially in the case of Trump and Putin's bitch. He's yet another psycho in a long line of Washington psychos and he's acting like that cat that holds down a mouse or a bug with one paw and pulls off his victim's legs one at a time with his teeth. The cat can't help it. It's a cat. Bitch McConnell can help it. He has a choice but he's made a conscious decision to mistreat the people he dismissively laughs at, the "ordinary Americans," the ones that "don't count" as he proudly calls himself "The Grim Reaper."

Beirut Explosion Was 2750 Tons of Ammonium Nitrate
Sounds good. Certainly makes a convincing cover story. Except that: 1 You must also mix it with diesel fuel.

Who profits from Militarizing the Police?
Curiously enough i am completely onside with the police acquiring all this military hardware but not because it may occasionaly be rolled out against a real military grade threat. Far from it. The police simply lack the appropriate training to begin with. They just have the hardware. A real threat is likely to take all these toys away and turn them on the police. A really bad day. What it all does do is move perfectly good hardware out of the miltary yards where they are rusting and completely idle onto police yards where they also get maintained. Thus available in case of n... more »

Russia's KV-1 Tank Had Impressive Armor, But It Was A "Death Trap" For One Simple Reason

What Makes The Great Novelist
In his review of Sartre's novel *Nausea*, Camus describes what makes the great novelist: “A novel is never anything but a philosophy put into images. And in a good novel, the whole of the philosophy has passed into the images. But if once the philosophy overflows the characters and action, and therefore looks like a label stuck on the work, the plot loses its authenticity and the novel its life. Nevertheless, a work that is to last cannot dispense with profound ideas. And this secret fusion between experiences and ideas, between life and reflection on the meaning of life, is what ... more »

A lone soldier armed with a Panzerfaust could — depending on the angle and shot placement — penetrate an Allied tank, ignite its fuel or ammunition and kill everyone inside. To Allied tank crews during World War II, the Panzerfaust was one of the German army’s deadliest weapons behind the static 88-millimeter cannon, the r... more »

case for lab-made sars-cov-2 spelled out by scientists
3-23-20 If leading up to 1977, the fact that increased research into strains of the (swine) flu were seen to increase the odds that an accidental leak would occur, why isn’t the same logic being applied to our pandemic today?

Wouldn’t an increased pace of research also increase the odds that a leak of a lab-modified coronavirus would occur just like an increased pace of research precipitated the leak of the H1N1 Swine Flu back then?…... more »
