Rant of the Week: Rachel Maddow – The Dark Days Are Here

Since the Republican held Senate refused to remove Trump from office, Republican senators, like Maine’s Susan Collins, insisted he had learned a lesson. Yes, the narcissistic psychotic “learned his lesson” alright just not the one that Republicans thought he would. Trump has no gone a rampage of pardoning and firings. On Friday, MSNBC host Rachel …

I feel much better now. I really do.

Let me put it this way, Mr. Amor. The 9000 series is the most reliable computer ever made. No 9000 computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information. We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error. I don’t feel too threatened by Artificial Intelligence because it’s not. …

House

Yesterday wasn’t any less difficult than I expected, just different and shorter. Escaping New York (World Headquarters of The Stars Hollow Gazette and DocuDharma) was about as hard as you might imagine a Friday Northbound Rush Hour would be, only with more accidents because it was cold.
