Dear KMAG: 20240506 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic


Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And yes, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

We will always remember Wheatie,

Pray for Trump,

Yet have fun,

and HOLD ON when things get crazy!


We will follow the RULES of civility that Wheatie left for us:

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And while we engage in vigorous free speech, we will remember Wheatie’s advice on civility, non-violence, and site unity:

“We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

“Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

If this site gets shut down, please remember various ways to get back in touch with the rest of the gang:

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

thereon

adverb

synonym of thereupon

  • On or upon this, that, or it.
  • Following that immediately; thereupon.
  • On that or this.

Used in a sentence

Wolf typed in the URL, and was treated thereon to the most uproarious meme.


MUSIC!

“Thereon” is not to be confused with the occult band “Therion”, which is not shown here. Instead, we’ll do some gospel!

Great stuff! And speaking of stuff…..


THE STUFF

First, a quick note of thanks to everybody who helped keep the site going during my recent absence. You are all greatly appreciated, and when I say God Bless You, I mean it!

I am pleased to report that my health is continuing to improve, and that the things I need to get done, are getting done. God is good! ALL THE TIME!

Again, thank you for your prayers, your well-wishes, and your continued presence here!

I thought this was a nice science history video – not primarily for the science, but for the human story. Steve talked about this guy, too, so it’s not totally unfamiliar.

Yes, those were interesting times, too.

Just sayin’!

And remember…….

Until victory, have faith!

And trust the big plan, too!

And as always….

ENJOY THE SHOW

Am I showing my age by remembering this song?


THE STUFF

Speaking of light and sight and “illumination”……

This may be the largest collection of celebrity one-eyes I’ve ever seen.

MUSIC!

Ah – I remember this song!

It always reminds me of this song, which I loved as a teen when it first came out, listening to it on my little Japanese transistor radio.

Not the greatest sound, but a fascinating live recording.


THE STUFF

It looks like AI has been up to no good.

This is very hard to unsee.

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Km1cS0CuipA

UGH.

And AI is creating more badly edited by sadly addictive content. Some of the repetition is just annoying as hell.

Still, there’s a lot of great tidbits here for anybody who was ever a fan of this movie.

MUSIC!

Some recent epic musical performance from one of Wheatie’s favorite artists.


THE STUFF

First, a doc – as in a documentary. This is soothing scientific clickbait. Just enjoy it in the background, if you have free time.

Another doc, as in Doc Holliday.

Everything you ever wanted to know, badly combined with marginally appropriate images grabbed from a few movies.

As one commenter says, “These AI written scripts drive me crazy”.

Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

dromestoners

noun

people who remove stones from temporary airfields

Used in a sentence

Wolf Moon had no idea that “dromestoners” were even a thing, much less the fact that they have a special name.

Used in a questionable video

Possible source on “dromestoners”


MUSIC!

Dromestoners is also the last song on an album by the same name.


THE STUFF

Time to go from “dromestoners” to “one-stoners”! Three big advances in math problems, explained very nicely for us non-mathematicians.

Math – a nice subject to view from the OUTSIDE!

Speaking of math – and physics – and ASTRONOMY – isn’t there an eclipse today?

Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

batrachivorous

adjective

  1. frog-eating
  2. bottom-feeding

Used in a sentence

A fish that eats frogs off the bottom of the pond, when the frogs dive into the water to escape predators on land, is batrachivorous, no matter how one defines the word.

Pronounced differently than I pronounce it


MUSIC!

Who here has eaten frog legs? You’re batrachivorous! Of course, if you don’t want to eat bullfrogs, you can get drunk with them!


THE STUFF

I stumbled across something interesting…..

YouTube suggested a video that I watched, fully realizing that it was probably “fake entertainment” designed to influence me in some way. And it was. So watch at your own risk. It’s a seductively innocent story.

To me, this sci-fi short appears to be propaganda to influence people in an emotional way to warm up to AI and humanoid robotics. They are using non-creepy, lovable humans to depict what we know is creepy and hard-to-love AI and robots.

Which is not to say that I oppose these things, but it IS to say that I can recognize propaganda when I see it. Some important concepts are discussed here, but beware of the main payload, hidden underneath sympathetic COUGH COUGH COUGH real humans.

Just sayin’!

Meanwhile, how about some AI REALITY – specifically in science and math? If you tire of the math, skip to the end for the summation of the situation by mathematicians.

Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

williwaw

noun

  1. A violent gust of cold wind blowing seaward from a mountainous coast, especially in the Straits of Magellan.
  2. A sudden gust of wind; a squall.
  3. A whirlwind, or whirlwind squall, encountered in the Straits of Magellan.

Used in a sentence

We had ourselves a righteous williwaw here a while back, with March seeming to come in like a lion, blowing down dead branches everywhere.


MUSIC!

How about some more bluegrass? Heck yeah!


THE STUFF

First, some explanation…..

Because of major fixes in key aspects of my health, I am now able to spend enough time on upcoming posts that they don’t all have to be identical placeholders. I can’t count on being here to do a bang-up Monday daily every week, because between healthcare appointments, healthcare scheduling, critical exercise to keep me healthy, home duties, minor crises, and unexpected crap, I can’t go much further than placeholders, done in advance, but I can do a batch of them that are not identical, and that is now the plan. I’m going to create several months of placeholders while I have a moment of moderately good health, and make minor modifications to all of them.

Each one will have a new word of the week, a new music video, and a new “feature” of some kind (often including interesting clickbait) for “the stuff”. I can create these well ahead of time, without waiting for the news.

I have to strike while the iron is hot. I now understand that my health is not guaranteed to be this good for longer than whatever time God chooses, so I will put the time to good use.

I know that God wants me working on this site, and not other “stuff” that is trying to drag me away. The other “stuff” has a purpose, too, but apparently this is more important. So be it.

Some of the features are going to be math and science videos that I find interesting – like this one!

Don’t feel like you can’t argue with or criticize either the science, math or history in anything that I post. That’s exactly what you SHOULD do!!!

I will also keep the Wheatie Warrior digital game artwork picture for the featured image. People seem to prefer that to the AI images. It’s comforting to y’all.

Just sayin’!

And remember…….

Until victory, have faith!

And trust the big plan, too!

And as always….

  2. of or on a shore, especially a seashore
  3. inhabiting the seashore, esp. the zone between high-water and low-water mark

MUSIC!

And speaking of stuff…..


THE STUFF

Gabby Does Wheatie Warrior. Sorta.

I had to start a fresh chat with Gabby to make any headway on trying to get a watercolor of the locally famous “Wheatie Warrior” picture, shown above.

Note the image name, upon which I believe Gabby relies heavily. I provided the file URL to Gabby, and I am positive that Gabby is reading the file and analyzing it.

FILE: https://www.theqtree.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/fantasy_walking_on_field_020457_.jpg

Well, here is Gabby’s return image.

It’s a great image – not as creepy as many prior Gabby images, and even less creepy in watercolor – but it lacks so many key aspects from the “Wheatie Warrior” image. OTOH, the original Wheatie Warrior image is rather far from reality. Does Gabby find the original “Final Fantasy” image creepy? Or at least “undesirable”? Is Gabby editing? Is Gabby changing the basic picture to “his/her/its” view of things? What are the biases of Gabby?

Gabby definitely biases to the center of the picture. Not much sense of lower symmetry showing balance. It’s easy to think that Gabby’s not that bright.

I tried all sorts of input variations and specificity to change the nature of the result toward more like the input image – no dice.

Hey! I got a tree – and lost the rest.

I just gave up. But only for now! *WINK*

Just sayin’!

And in that regard…..

Until victory, have faith!

And trust the big plan, too!
