You know optimism is waning when you are disappointed the asteroid is not arriving until 2032 .
While it is Abraham Lincoln's birthday & Timothy Snyder is writing an amazing essay from Ukraine we are watching Tulsi added to the demolition crew. Stop the train I want to get off.
Worse yet - the papers are reporting that Trump and Putin have agreed to begin talks on ending the war in Ukraine, giving Putin the relief he so desperately needs. Ukraine was not involved in the alleged agreement to begin negotiations. If I were Zelensky, I would be hitting every Russian oil pipeline my drones could reach, to take Russia out of the Siberian oil business, and also I'd be ramping up Ukraine's plans to build their own nuclear weapons, as a genuine deterrent.....

Wikipedia has an interesting entry on the Gulf of Mexico which includes the history of its name. The name "Gulf of Mexico" (Spanish: golfo de México; French: golphe du Mexique, later golfe du Mexique) first appeared on a world map in 1550 and a historical account in 1552. I added the Wikipedia info to my reason for choosing "inaccurate content".
Hegseth wasn't merely heckled; he was solidly booed. He, Trump, and Lemo are going to make sure young people will not want to enlist, this during a time when meeting recruitment quotas is tough. All branches barely managed to meet them last year, except for the Navy who didn't, possibly because young people's parents discourage them from hitting the Pacific because of the threats posed by China. And because that threat is real and Trump's BS can't do anything about it, Biden amped up AUKUS so we have reliable allies in the Pacific. Of course, those steel and aluminum tariffs Trump swirls around like a fan dancer's fans will make things hard on Australia (who will likely ask for a waiver), but these dimwits don't think things out that far.
Hegseth is a drunk and a sex pest. It’s rather discouraging to see the DOD ignore an opportunity to meet with and encourage talented engineers because they happen to be African American. Any one of them is probably smarter than Hegseth would ever be.
Once all the donors to the Lincoln Center pack up their money and go home, perhaps it will be able to afford to put on a Pat Boone impersonator.
Perhaps it is because I use it on line, but I couldn't find ANY "national X months" on Google Calendar. I hate the iOS app and use it only under duress, so I don't know about there.
Looks like trump decided against the "rare earth" deal with Ukraine because he's decided that Putin will just give him the stuff once Russia takes over.
Google actually has a longstanding practice of following ANY country's lead on naming geographical features. I had a friend check with his cousin in Argentina. There it is the Golfo de Mexico (though Golfo de America is in parentheses. )
I looked up aid to S. Africa. There is some aid that isn't HIV connected, but it is relatively miniscule. They could probably make up the difference selling T shirts that say "you gotta be kidding."
Thanks for another excellent update, Tom. I'd root for the asteroid but I will certainly be reduced to ashes by then, so I want wish for further damage to our planet.
I can't believe that so many totally unqualified people are being appointed to cabinet chair positions. I understand them appoint RFK jr, since it its their intention to do away with the Department of Health and Human Services since that is one of the departments due for the chopping block. But NSA and DOD they plan to keep, so why are they forced to suffer?

Another thing with google, when you do a search for Gulf of Mexico and click on it, when it opens it’s named Gulf of America. So absurd!

You know how to be subversive when it's needed. I like that in a person. Please keep finding more of those thousand tiny cuts.

Will do. Thanks Kathy
Good advice. I’ve heard of DuckDuckGo. I will check it out.
Hegseth basically sold out
Ukraine at NATO. He's a
disgrace to the military and
country.

Why doesn't Hegseth name it after Commander McBragg...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkZzLUvuLLU
