definition -- unintelligible or meaningless speech or writing: nonsense.
in other words, the lingua franca of the biden administration, when asked a straight forward question which might otherwise prove yet again embarrassing and/or revealing of truth (to the most inept and dishonest administration in the history of the united states.) the sine qua non, & the only refuge, for the incompetent, for the scoundrel.
what more can be said along these lines? i speak truth.

and, oh yeah, since i am 73 years old, have 4 bypasses, 6 stents, 3 active aneurysms and a host of other ailments, i would very much like to wake in the morning. but, i want, i want, i want, i want a whole bunch. what in the world am i willing to do to work for any of this? well, nothing at all.
to my mind, it is sufficient that i want. right fucking now.

p.s. i am mindful of a poster i saw of willie nelson, looking scruffy and woebegone as only willie nelson is capable, with a caption above his picture saying, "i done outlived my pecker." i'd like that back myself, ... , not willie's willy, but my very own willy, which worked well on occasion, and not so well on occasion, but always made things interesting. oh, yeah, i want things to be interesting again. but, mostly i want.

"the donald" was interesting, and always thought provoking. life had "color" with "the donald."
the little lefties just don't engender must interest, as they go about blindly wrecking all that has come before them: they vaingloriously deny history, even as they are trapped by it. just like isis blowing up buddhist temples and anything & anyone else "not muslim," that "denies" their vision of holiness. all "wreckers" are idiots, seeing no worth except their own, and fundamentally "gray" and "boring" as a result. they are as a mirage over a dry lake bed .... pretenders toward a substance they do not possess, purposefully ignorant of all vitality preceding them.
"one note charlies."
imho.

i am not saying science always "makes things up," but in the infancy of things quite a bit of it is simply speculation. guess work. and, that is putting it mildly.
scientists seem disinclined to say of something that they cannot explain, "we don't understand this. we won't understand it, quite likely, tomorrow, either."
instead, they try to explain it, without having a clue as to how the "explanation" explains anything at all.
witness the above article.

i don't know much about anthony fauci's medical and professional credentials, and really do not have to, to formulate the several opinions voiced below.--
1.)he has an enormous appetite to be noticed.
2.)he is intensely political.
and, 3.)he is a committed leftist, probably a marxist/leninist, and he believes devoutly in a nanny state involved in the very minutia of all our lives, to the extent of guiding and controlling them. he would have been as comfortable being joe stalin's "medical advisor" as he is in glorying being joe biden's socialist aide de camp. if he could, he would wear a high collared tunic buttoned to the top, with jodhpurs and high topped leather boots. he would arrive at press conferences riding a harley, with 4 burly escorts, who would "protect" his otherwise insignificant ass on the dias.****
friends, he is having the time of his life being paid attention to, and "wielding power" over your daily lives. he has truly got an early day pass to heaven.

**** he would wear a soviet field marshall's cap if he thought he could get away with it. and, a monocle, with a leather strap. trust me on this. he is a regular popinjay.

to my mind, the linked article suggests human consciousness & conscious experience prior to birth. https://getpocket.com/explore/item/consciousness-goes-deeper-than-you-think?utm_source=pocket-newtab . i doubt that was the author's intention to argue, or even communicate sub rosa what i am suggesting, but that is what i took from it.
the article appeared in scientific american september 18, 2017 by bernardo kastrup, phds.philosophy and computer engineering.
it was published prior to that in a paper entitled, "there is an 'unconscious," but it may well be conscious," published in europe's journal of psychology, vol. 13, no. 3, 559572.
let me emphasize that i have the foggiest notion of bernardo kastrup's views on the ethics of abortion, and what i am reading in the article may not be there, or intended to be there sub rosa. you read it, and you decide.

i just turned 73 years of age, and i don't recall any world leader, let alone an "adversarial" one, calling the president of the united states of america a senile & incompetent old fool. in public. on the record. before god and everyone. but, it has become common place since the election of joe biden, and correct me if i am wrong, but the leaders of china, north korea and iran have insulted biden thusly, and i suspect a good many more believe it to be so.
i know that "killer" putin of russia (you may think of it as the soviet union, i still do) would like to challenge him to a verbal duel, and would do so at the drop of a hat, and would not hesitate to describe biden as seriously impaired, to the point of not being not competent to droll down his own chin without help, and a teleprompter. to his face. and, repeat it, if biden could not hear and/or digest it.
i thought about this, as i drove home from walla-squared, and my pastry from the collville street patisserie: a coffee-poppy seed quick bread. (quite tasty. visit the pastry shop if you are ever in walla walla, washington.)
what the leaders of the world are saying (and privately saying) is nothing that i haven't believed for about a year now. the dimbulbs will have no choice but to remove him from office peacefully is possible, or by shooting him if he will not cooperate. (i suspect the latter. and, shooting him holds a number of political advantages for them, ... , something biden should consider, if able.)
but, there is something that the rest of the world should be mindful of. and, it has to do with tigers.
some years ago a leader of some country or another took occasion to describe the united states as less than formidable in a geo-political sense, saying that we were "a paper tiger." the implication was that a country could get away with murder as we were afraid to respond, afraid to exercise our power.
that person was brought up a little short, i should imagine, when someone else reminded him, "yes, a paper tiger, but with nuclear teeth." lots of 'em.
those who think biden incapable, and timorous, and confused, and easily pushed (including me), would do well to remember that the silly old bastard walks around with the nuclear codes, assuming he hasn't left them at a computer store somewhere to get "polished up." this doddering fool still exercises legal authority over immense power. enough to turn the major cities of any country in the world into smouldering puddles of ash, embers and bleached bones.
it's a sobering thought. ain't it. he can press the launch button, and there is absolutely nothing in the world anyone can do to stop him. and, he can do it for any reason. whatsoever. think of that, you dipshit trump haters. think of that, you idiots that voted for biden, ignoring everyone who was telling you (including me) that he was non compos mentis. he can have you reduced to your constituent molecules without having the slightest idea why, or how, or even when. blow you into smoke. scatter you to the four winds.
cheers.

p.s. for those of you who voted for the silly thieving perverted bastard, ... , thanks a bunch.
