Take heart – there will be a Meme Overflow and almost certainly a Friday Meme Overflow-Overflow. Last week’s Overflow-Overflow.
Remember, ridicule and mockery are effective weapons:
- Ridicule cannot easily be fought
- Ridicule makes the enemy angry, and angry people make mistakes
- For those in the “squishy middle” a Thought Splinter (and Part II and Part III and Part IV) can often be hidden inside humor.
Now, let the mockery and mayhem begin.

This is why the media ignores Thomas Sowell and go for the Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, etc #shorts
Heaven forbid a black man speak clearly against the Left’s narrative.
FYI, The Exodus Movement seems to be comatose but #Jexit is active. And I’ve just started to see #walkaway videos again.

Taxes. Inflation. And the never-ending stream of “stuff” and “services” that we have been convinced we simply cannot live without. Never mind offshoring of good-paying jobs.

No to Economic Slavery – by T.L. Davis (substack.com)
I don’t know the timeline to catastrophe, because I don’t know how well they can put lipstick on a pig or how long that lipstick will last, but with the accumulation of economic red flags swirling in the air, it only takes one of these fundamental collapses to set off the whole thing.

Natural immunity rocks. Which we knew. Until they needed to sell Jabs. That, actually, was one of the singular data points that made me suspicious – I did a report on Immunology in high school in biology. Natural immunity was prominent in virtually every reference I looked at. So for it to be so utterly dismissed – “Natural immunity doesn’t count and we have to wait for the vaccine” – was totally dissonant with everything I’d learned about it.

Just MHO, there’s something… off with this guy. Again, MHO. Among other things his meteoric rise – like Barackus. Out of nowhere.
Barackus said that he was a “blank screen” onto which people projected their hopes and so on. Once more, just MHO, but I get that sense here as well.

There was a book I read in high school, The Pearl, in which a pearl diver finds an utterly magnificent large pearl. Going to the various agents of pearl buyers, hoping to sell it to benefit and advance his family, he uniformly is told that such a pearl is actually grotesque, disfigured, etc., and thus not worth much – but they’ll “generously” take it off his hands for a pittance. And it comes out, in the text, that all these different buyers are actually reps for one big monopoly that merely gives the illusion of competition. (Of note that just came to mind – so is the doctor who “cares” for their infant son, but actually works for this cartel and poisons the kid as a way to gain leverage. Sounds… familiar?)
So what can we make of these?
Two staggeringly important issues – wedge issues that clearly demark the Right from the Left… unraised at the debate. Hmmmm.
As I keep saying, the priority of everyone in the GOP – with only a couple of exceptions – seems to be to stay in office or position, feather their nests, and get invited to the “beautiful people” cocktail parties. And the hell with the country.

I’m not the only one who’s pointed out the phrase “You cannot win, Darth. If you strike me down I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine”. My belief is this: if they can’t stop him, they’ll kill him.
I’m educated, both formally and informally. But one of the things that I’ve noted is the tendency of highly educated people to become locked on what they know and, thus, lack the humility – a virtue – to concede they might be wrong. My late father had a short essay, which he framed and I treasure, about the necessity to be willing to change one’s mind and say “I used to believe…”

Climate Change
Reminds me of this, about the world being the warmest it’s ever been, from here (link and underlining in original; bolding added):
One person I know, whose specialization is metrology, told me that the prior year was the “warmest year on record.” But when I turned around to ask what I thought was a logical follow-up question, i.e., “OK, by how much was it warmer”? they did not know. Not only did they not know, but that question had – by their own admission – never occurred to them to ask.
Huh? A person whose job it is to measure things and understand differences doesn’t even think to ask?? And when I pointed out that the temperature difference was something like 0.1 Celsius, thus well within any error bars, there wasn’t a follow-up of “Where can I go to learn more”?
