Nothing bundt trouble? --Girls Season 2, Ep. 4 It's a Shame About Ray

It is an established fact that alcoholism, cocainism, and morphinism are deadly enemies of life, of health, and of the capacity for work and enjoyment; and a utilitarian must therefore consider them as vices. But this is far from demonstrating that the authorities must interpose to suppress these vices by commercial prohibitions, nor is it by any means evident that such intervention on the part of the government is really capable of suppressing them or that, even if this end could be attained, it might not therewith open up a Pandora's box of other dangers, no less mischievous than alcoholism and morphinism.– Ludwig von Mises, Liberalism [1927]

“We are not to simply bandage the wounds of victims beneath the wheels of injustice, we are to drive a spoke into the wheel itself.”—Dietrich Bonhoeffer

A person should seek to reduce, by whatever peaceful means his ingenuity may devise, the power of government — any government — to tell him what to do.– John Patric

By the time November comes around will any republican be able to win the presidency?? If Hillary crashes can Bernie Sanders win the general election?? A pragmatist might ask if these United States will still exist on election day!! This political chaos just might end these United States of America!! - Cousin Lucky

Funny how horoscope givers still are trying to sell their universal lines as a unique experience. But this one is actually nicely done for everyone:

You believed things which were not true and it came back on you in many ways. Now you see who you need to distance yourself from, and why. Finally you're back in the driving seat.

[H]uman nature abhors a spiritual vacuum. If the
house from which an unclean spirit has gone out is
left empty, swept, and garnished, the momentarily
banished possessor will sooner or later enter in
again with a retinue of other spirits more wicked
than himself, and the last state of that man will be
worse than the first.- Arnold Toynbee, War and Civilization

Warmachine's most distinctive feature is the inclusion of warcasters and warjacks (the war machines from which the game derives its name). Warjacks, or 'jacks for short, are techno-magical constructs designed for waging war. They are, in general, powered by a coal-burning steam engine and guided by an arcane supercomputer-like 'brain' called a cortex. Heavily armored and often carrying over-sized weaponry, 'jacks fill a role similar to traditional military armor such as tanks and artillery. They are several times more durable and powerful than normal troops, but are far more costly.

Anthropology demands the open-mindedness with which one must look and listen, record in astonishment and wonder that which one would not have been able to guess.
Margaret Mead

Lastly, a person can choose to embrace their own absurd condition. According to Camus, one's freedom – and the opportunity to give life meaning – lies in the recognition of absurdity. If the absurd experience is truly the realization that the universe is fundamentally devoid of absolutes, then we as individuals are truly free.

Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, is a courageous man. He has got to know full well what he is risking by saying no to the federal government’s demand that he sell out the interests of Apple’s customers by effectively becoming an agent of the United States national-security establishment. He deserves the thanks of every American who still places a high value on the principles of liberty and privacy.-Jacob G. Hornberger

history is a pack of lies agreed upon --Napoleon Bonaparte

Just think if 90 some % of our world gets wiped out in WWIII, will finally learn from what little history survives; as a w\hole to stupid to take it all in!
