I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

I really can't tell anymore.

For me it doesn't matter which it is.  Either the writer is dumb or an asshole.

Man I cannot wait to become more and powerful than the rest of the world combined.

Why are we worried about the Russians having Uranium? They are one of the top producers of Uranium in the world.

The American right has morphed the Uranium one story into "Hillary gave all our weapons grade Uranium to Russia".  I guess that solves a conundrum for them.  If the Uranium One deal was crooked, why hasn't Trump simply seized the mine as the proceeds of a criminal conspiracy.  If you come to believe that it's stockpiles of fissile material then that question doesn't come up.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

We had some good innings.  Sorry about the global warming thing, though.
