Well, I briefly held double-digit followers this week. I occasionally get a new follower who has second thoughts after following me on an impulse, maybe after a humorous tweet.
Are you sure that's not the line at the DMV?

Anti-vaxxers are criminals against humanity. I have no financial interest in these fine companies. I am in an at risk population who has been vaccinated (Pfizer).

We libertarians are amused by the fight between Trump and Liz Cheney. It's like picking sides between King Kong and Godzilla. Trump has done much to destroy the GOP with massive debt, nativism, and mercantilism while Cheney is Queen of the industrial policy Neo-Cons.

Political corruption goes beyond trading favors for getting the credit for bringing home the bacon. Sneaking in special purpose exemptions, waivers, etc. violate the rule of law. Will suggests don't sweat the small stuff; earmarks are a sideshow for the $30T debt. https://t.co/Pe7Jipc4qj

Say it ain't so, Bill! For thousands of us geeks, Bill was an inspiration that we too could find the right girl and have a family. I wish the Gates family well during this painful transition.

I don't care about CNN's "Big Lie" of Trump's claim of a "stolen election". What Dems fail to understand is how close the most toxic POTUS in our lifetimes during a collapsed economy and pandemic came to reelection against the most electable Dem candidate.

Both the Carters and the Bidens have been vaccinated so even the CDC has liberalized their guidelines on such meetings. I do think masking for the Zoom conference was mostly symbolic, contrasting himself against Trump. But no, post-vaccine masking is not "pure theater".

This goes beyond retarded bullshit. What increases the deficit is spending, not theoretical taxation assuming tax policy doesn't impair economic growth. For example, the current Dotard-in-Chief has attempted to sign unpaid-for trillions of NEW spending into law.

As a former registered Republican, I don't know who will lead the GOP into the future, but I can say it won't be Trump, McCarthy or Cheney. Trump was nothing more than an unprincipled self-serving political opportunist without Reagan's charm and vision.

Fauci should step aside on unethical, economic illiterate attempts to steal COVID-19 vaccine IP. The real issues have more to do with supply-side constraints to production, and stealing property doesn't resolve those. https://t.co/OiJhYIkUAE

Yes, indeed, we geeks can't dance. But Bill and Melinda married mere months before the kickoff of Windows 95. I haven't seen the couple's First Dance at the reception, but I think Melinda knew how badly Bill dances.https://t.co/rgtRIHajcX https://t.co/bgYX0NiwFf

Liz Cheney is a strident neo-con. Personally, I share her opinion on Trump, but she made her point months back and continues to push her point provocatively in a pro-Trump caucus, even after surviving a post-Jan. 6 vote. This is political suicide.

Dotard-in-Chief Biden is abandoning IP rights for American COVID-19 vaccine makers. Note that WTO already allows for compulsory licensing. Note even Pfizer has run into supply chain issues; India's own vaccine makers are running into the same. https://t.co/00OXdMLTNl

If simply for the interests of the next generation taxpayers, McConnell's opposition to Dotard-in-Chief Biden's immoral, politically corrupt multi-trillion dollar spending spree is heroic.

It's so sad to see Ron Paul, a physician, engage in anti-vaxxer bullshit. Yes, kids can get COVID-19 (I've got grandnieces who caught it on a school trip); yes, they can transmit it to others. Yes, they can benefit from vaccination.https://t.co/Eb8V70na7Q

Biden has refused any significant attempt to reduce his profligate spending legislation using reconciliation in razor-thin majorities to add trillions to the national debt. What he wants is GOP votes for nothing in return.

Trump as usual is a hypocritical fool, dissing Cheney as a war hawk. Seriously, dude? You hired Mattis and Bolton and were bombing Afghanistan more than Nobel Peace Prize winner Obama. Yes, we need less interventionism--and that means neither Trump nor Cheney.

It's like Biden and Macron are part of the Axis of Economic Illiterate Morons. The issue of vaccine availability is not a licensing issue (already allowed under WTO) but supply chain constraints, and neither moron has a "plan" to resolve these issues. https://t.co/DM75B40s3N
— raguillemette (@raguillemette) May 6, 2021
Biden, like Trump, is an economic illiterate moron; the idea that government creates "jobs" (only true in the sense of hiring men to fight wars it creates or employing bureaucrats to make businesses more expensive to run) goes beyond hubris and naivete.

While governments scapegoat IP owners for purported COVID-19 vaccine issues, governments themselves are responsible for distribution issues: the unreasonable pause on the J&J vaccine, stockpiled doses at the state level, delayed approval of AstraZeneca's etc. Now other countries.

It's bad enough if an Ohio Trumpkin looked the other way as Trump extorted a foreign government using US aid money passed and signed into law for a political attack on Biden, a personal, not national interest. But excusing his role in a violent attack on Congress?

No, tightening election laws isn't "voter suppression" or "an attack on democracy". No company would operate elections like the government. This is not to say Trump's assertions of a stolen election are credible. Hoover, Carter & Bush lost in bad economies

Apparently after I stopped watching SNL host Elon Musk, he played Wario in a skit. I've never played video games but I knew there was a Mario character, Wario rhymes with Mario, and W is an upside-down M. But other than that, it's all geek to me.
