    So, once robots and AI take over all or most human jobs, what will be the rationalization for giving the wealthy tax cuts?

    Fun fact: When the self checkout craze began some years ago, the very first place I saw one was at a high end gourmet type supermarket.

    Sometimes stupidity is indistinguishable from irony.

    As Jen pointed out at the end of yesterday’s open forum, Trump posted almost 200 times on Christmas Day.

    Yes, that does sound obsessive.

    @CSK: Grumpy Grandpa that everybody tries to ignore at Christmas Dinner…..except he has the power to destroy the entire world. I sure feel safe.

    @Jax:

    There’s some consolation that he’s so angry and miserable despite his two elections.

    If living well is the best revenge, then having your enemies feel badly at all times is the second best.

    I just saw a post on BlueSky noting those with narcissistic personality disorder don’t care for anything (including holidays) that divert attention away from them, so they tend to act out/act up to draw attention back to themselves. That, plus bitter old man, makes sense to me.

    This is kind of a first: I began to doze off while entering prices in a proposal.

    The closest thing to this was years ago, when I dozed off while initialing the competition’s proposals at an event. the odd thing then was I kept signing while asleep. One page had my initials like five times.

    It’s trikes me as perfectly natural when doing something tedious and boring while sleep deprived for days.

    I just noticed that Richard Grenell, longtime Trump uber-sycophant, is now the President of the Kennedy Center, which was renamed to honor the cult leader, which is also probably illegal.
    Anyway, they apparently are going to install marble armrests. WTF?!? Marble? Talk about cruelty.
    What is wrong with these people???
