The Floccinaucinihilipilification Of Modern Society

Imagine, if you will, typing the minutes for a work meeting and then, days later, finding it returned with a red pen circle around the word "brevity" on page 4, with a comment "Use simple English". 

Is "brevity" not simple enough? 

Doubling Down On Being Wrong Only Makes You Twice As Wrong.

Here we are on 26 January 2026. It's three weeks into the new year and Trump's ICE gestapo have already murdered 9 people. Make no mistake, since ICE is not empowered to kill people at random in public streets, no matter what Trump, Vance, Miller or Noem claim.

I've been paying attention to the levels of public outcry to these literal state-sanctioned murders. This is what I've found.

I Know Why Trump Wants Greenland (A Reasonable Hypothesis)

Why does Trump want Greenland? Minerals? More territory to govern? More subjects to lord it over? Just because he wants it? To give NATO the finger like he did that Ford worker yesterday, who got fired for calling a spade a spade?

It's a lot to take in, isn't it?

As I pointed out yesterday, it's only the 3rd of January and I'm already laden with fresh anxiety.

On one hand, we have a bunch of racist neo-Nazi Afrikarens publicly expressing their hopes that Trump will do to South Africa what he's done to Venezuela, to "sort the country out" - and claiming to be "patriots" in the same breath, while totally not seeing the irony.

But then, irony is lost on the irredeemably stupid, as these people are.
