3DHS / MOAB Massive Ordinance Air Blast
« on: April 13, 2017, 06:22:20 PM »
21 k tons of conventional explosive.

Probably killed the worms in the ground a half mile round.

Might have collapsed shallow tunnels.

Might have collapsed the entrances of deep tunnels.

Might even have sent a fatal shock wave rolling down the length of otherwise undamaged tunnels .

Shouldn't be long before we know.

If the killing effect was effective as it might have been, there will not be much defense of these tunnels.

3DHS / Syrian Strike
« on: April 06, 2017, 11:42:06 PM »
These are rough years to be Syrian.

I think it quite possible that todays airstrike will open the storage containers of war gas that might be stored in the stricken airbase.

A big spill of this stuff would not only prove Bashir Assad's guilt, it would make survival in the neighborhood of this airbase very difficult.

Did the Syrians keep much war gas when President Obama gave them an opportunity to get them out of theater?

If they did then they better hope the US has no intelligence on the location, such as flight path of delivering ordinance.

This is more than a little bad news for the Syrian government , especially if they have only half as much war gas as they gave to president Obama. The more of this weapon they have the more they are vulnerable to us .

Because there is not enough Syrian Air Force to deliver the gas to their foe in large enough quantity to get rid of it .

There is plenty of US Navy missile and aircraft to release this stuff , quite close to its origin.

According to Lyst, a London-based e-commerce website which tracks clothing retail, sales of Ivanka Trump products rocketed in February.

It says sales increased 346% from January to February this year and 557%, compared with average orders last year.

"To see such an extreme spike in one month is completely unheard of and came as a huge surprise to us," says Lyst's US spokesperson Sarah Tanner
 


Ok, so there is a very organized wallet based boycott of Trump products.

And I have never wanted a perfume so much before.
Or a beer,I drink Yuengling now and then anyway.

3DHS / So...gun sales are down...

Down a lot.

This seems predictable to me , so much so I almost don't bring it up, but...


How does this fit with the theory that the NRA manipulates the market for guns and politics also ,to benefit the gun manufacturers , who run the NRA.

Well it does not fit , this effect is not predictable just to me , if I were Smith and Wesson I would be a Clinton supporter , just for the profit.

3DHS / A poor Canadian

My opinion on debt has changed in the past few years... due, in no small part, to being in debt.

For a long time, yeah, that debt felt like sin. Those red numbers were a failing on my part, they represented insufficient work ethic and gluttonous indulgence and poor planning. Sure, I was making the required minimum monthly payments on my credit card, but I had a negative balance and I was bleeding away interest with every passing month. How irresponsible, how stupid, how low-class of me!

But, as I've come to learn, most humans on this rock have a negative balance of some sort. Many of the "richest" people you see are actually thousands (if not millions) in the hole, when you total everything up. Being rich isn't about the total amount of money you have. It's about what you can do.

Am I in the red? Yes I am. But if I lost my dayjob and somehow Patreon was outlawed tomorrow, I know I could keep the lights on and keep food on the table for a few months while I looked for a new employer. I feel financially secure, and that feeling of security allows me to do more things.

And y'know what? A lot of that feeling of security is due to being Canadian. I know if I get laid off or if I have a heart attack, the government's got my back. I feel wealthy because I live in a rich nation. I've often said that the wealth of a society is determined not only by the height of the ceiling, but by the depth of the floor. A few nice, cushy, overlapping social security nets promote risk-taking - new ventures, new businesses, new jobs. This comic right here is living proof.

Of course, I also feel that the average person having a negative net worth is unsustainable; a symptom of the decay of late-stage capitalism... but hopefully we can scare up some bread to offset that particular cumulative burn.



...



...too far of a reach with that metaphor?

Can society function with practically everyone in debt?
With the nation itself in debt also?

Is this sort of indebtedness a threat to society being free?

3DHS / Lively debate within Trump cabinet.

Erupts?

Hehehe actually I am glad to see that the Trump administration is not monolithic, these problems don't always respond to pat answers , so lets see them have a little fun brainstorming such complicated questions and exploring the compromises.

I am not much worried that Donald Trump will be insufficiently decisive , so a split in opinions in the cabinet is not a big deal.

3DHS / Executive Orders
« on: February 14, 2017, 06:13:19 PM »
   Will some people realize what was objectionable about Obama , if Trump does the very same thing?

   I think not , the force of empathy is weak in many.

   From this article I learn that:

    Florida's "stand your ground" laws need to be written more specifically, more simply and more strongly.

   Firing a warning shot might not be a good idea.

    Plea deals work better when the accused is not guilty of much.

Hmmm....

  The party of no isn't making it stick.

   Will this frustration play out in the kind of violence that Republicans displayed seven or six years ago?

3DHS / Cancel the Oscars to protest President Trump
« on: February 01, 2017, 06:36:45 PM »
Yes, that is an Idea that is floating past.

There is indeed a large part of the entertainment industry that is eagerly searching for something meaningful to do to protest the Donald Trump Phenomenon.

This is a grand idea, it would show the public that the entertainers and such are sincere and willing to undergo sacrifice to lodge a protest, meanwhile harming no one in particular.

If the Oscars get cancelled would someone be sure to let me know that it has happened?

I never watch the thing , so I could possibly miss missing it.

   Is a supertip a good way to celebrate a grand occasion?

    Is it proper and respectful?

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/01/human-pig-hybrid-embryo-chimera-organs-health-science/

  So it is possible to create a pig that has a human immune system and various human organs.

   This creature can provide you with a transplantable organ and smoked ham also.


       What could possibly go wrong?
