Dear MAGA: 20250807 ✾ Thank God ± Theistic Evolution ∈ Thursday Open Topic


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!

Just gonna throw out some goodies.

(1) I forgot all about this Matrix stuff. Kinda fun.


(2) You think Stalin was bad? He was worse! Way worse!

Obama’s mentor’s mentor! Do things make sense now?


(3) OH NOES – Ancient Humanoids Just Got Even More Complicated!

(WARNING – 41 min EXTREME geek-out scientific paper reviews!)

Is it a mess? YES – and real science admits that it’s a mess, and the mess is evolving, too! But things ARE getting sorted out.

Frankly, I wish we would have had these kinds of science discussions online when I was in school, instead of sending letters by pony express, or using scrolls and clay tablets!


(4) I love this song – in case you haven’t seen it.

AI humor had me cheering, and AI country had me tapping my foot. Not gonna lie!


(5) What links AI, atom bombs, card decks, chemical reactions, search engines, and the very concepts of independence and free will?

EXPLAINER!


OK – that’s enough. Have a great weekend!
