My days on this platform are numbered. Kind of sad because I've made a lot of friends over the last 13 years I've been here. But Musk's attack on the ADL is a bridge too far. See ya over on Mastodon! My deets are in my profile. #buhbye #seeyouonthedon

If Trump becomes president again, after all we know ,and you supported his campaign you will have participated in the end of American democracy. You will not be rewarded by your leader beyond a rush you might seek for upending civility. You aren't part of his plan. He is the entirety of his plan and the future will belong to him. Not you. You won't get a thank you or a knowing nod. He will allow you to buy trinkets with his image and name emblazoned. Trump is a despicable example of human kind. Devoid of compassion. Devoid of any respect for knowledge and education. Trump is the fully realized Id. He will have no guardians , no guard rails and no shame. He cannot tell the difference between what he is and what he wants. There is none when you analyze the situation. He flunks Descarte's building block syllogism automatically. He can't think so no therefore. Ego driven rage and revenge. If you're inclined to assist him please rethink your reasons. #Trump

Playing with CodeMonkey on a demo for my middle school classes. Any of my people used this?

I guess summer is over, y'all. At least here in South Carolina. Got my long pants on for the first time.

They're everywhere!
Last night, some ominously disguised (and probably unemployed) short people came to my door in what appeared to be an elaborate extortion scheme involving a demand for free candy. Fox News is right: The work ethic has been replaced by entitlement in Biden's woke socialist state!
