This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!

Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.

Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Thank God Thursday Open Thread, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Theistic Evolution Thursdays, due to the author’s expected “pontification” about his scientific, religious, and political opinions. You are welcome to pontificate back! Free speech matters!

Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.

The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.

And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.

And that’s it. We’re done stealing from Wheatie.

OK – maybe her rules need to be posted.

• No food fights.
• No running with scissors.
• If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.

If there is nothing beyond the “W” below, then this is a placeholder. For health reasons, I can’t always post a timely opinion before each Thursday, but I will try. Otherwise, you have this placeholder post, where YOU provide the content. Enjoy!

Hot, fresh trinkets – and 4 out of 5 are heavy on the XX! ENJOY!!!

(1) Chip Babe Anastasia is back, looking far less AI than usual. This time INTEL is getting the love!

(2) Speaking of love, the story on Robert Palmer’s video for Addicted To Love is pretty amazing. Check it out!

(3) Want to see some REAL hacking? No tense music. No babes urging on the geek. No race to get it done in under 60 seconds before the alarms go off and the security guards with machine guns burst into the room.

Just some dude who knows programming, ordering a cheap Chinese router on Temu, and abusing it, as it was surely designed to be abused.

(4) This is absolutely hilarious! A massive victory for free speech, thanks to a mellow black stoner in Ohio. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!! Brett Cooper (yes, Brett the girl) tells the story.

(5) Let’s finish with a comic/magician who acts as her own eye-candy distraction. Good times!

Have a great weekend!
