Yep. We're forked. Although I'm pretty sure Iran had their nukes ready before FJB handed their money back to them. All the sanctions in the world don't slow down buttheads like that!

Yup, it is indeed "concrete" we live on the edge of Armageddon. All to cover up the crimes of the regime and to defect from the crash due to trillions in debt.

When are you going to tell us the truth about AI. You can't teach illogic on this side of the looking glass. Dodgson created Wonderland as his world of illogic and it sure looks a lot like looking into a mirror.

Charles I am looking for a crystal clear way of saying I never learned to draw a letter or how to tie my shoes. People don't understand what it means to fail kindergarten and be told you're a genius. I was pretty disordered. I am glad to report that on the imaginary line between what was and what will I am in total harmony. I think that is why Eugenia Cheng is such a refreshing unstereotypical English Philosopher. Life is comedy for those who think. I rather listen to Cheng than Wittgenstein 8 days a week. I know Wittgenstein was Jewish but The University of Chicago has style even as it lacks substance. There I go with Newton , Milton and Locke again. If only Hobbes had named his thesis something other than the only true miracle in the Bible that ends by saying even God can't tell the future.

Charles your doing a great job. I just don't censor and spends hours thinking somethings need to be said only in the closet where I speak to my God. Ten minutes later I read Irving Layton's for my Brother Jesus. I can still watch Irving Layton on Fighting Words supporting Smut because it is the only morally courageous thing to do. Back in 1960 Layton was talking about the Putin/Zelenskiy conflict and we lost Irving long before he died but the Archives tell us the meaning of Patrick Henry 's Give me Liberty or give me death Patrick Henry was an English Immigrant. He arrived with a fine education and oratorical skills. He wasn't from Guatemala or Haiti.

Defending Dirt and slamming smut

In 1960 Quebec was all about the censorship of thought and in 2023 anything goes but it begins in kindergarten and we are two generations into truthtelling and it works for me.

The Perils of Independence

Giving independence to underdeveloped countries "is like the gift of a razor to a child."

I am teaching my American philosopher wife Canadian history. Beaverbrook was not a friend to Jews.

Evolution or Revolution

Thanks Charles

I will be cross examining myself for a week. I live in a hockey town and I haven't seen a single Kraken game so I am swallowed up by the web. Imagine an economy where hockey cards are the dominant currency. Hockey cards are almost as insane as gold having no real value other than their perceived nobility. Even democracy comes with a heavy cost.

I am 75 . I was born in Montreal in 1948 and hockey was a religion and Kraken lived between Norway and Iceland in the Baltic not in Seattle on the Pacific. I am autistically disordered and can't tie my shoes or draw a straight line but in 1955 on St Patrick's Day I was seven and celebrating turning eight and the Richard Riot was justified because without the Kraken who wants to live?. In Montreal, 21st century hockey riots usually involve 10 year olds and their six year old fathers and mothers.

It is 2023 and Montreal is no longer the largest French speaking city after Paris and hockey riots seem

calmer than an Irish Wake in Montreal.

It takes passion to riot. I never saw the Kraken play hockey. My brother in law loves hockey but to me I never watch hockey. I know if I ever see the Kraken I will be at the home where on Saturday we will sit around the TV and discuss how wonderful life was before The Kraken played hockey.🤣😢

Speaking of Art History recently wasn't there a Jewish prophet before Mancheanism hit Iran two centuries before it hit Rome and Europe? I remember the prophet but his name escapes me. He said: Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's render unto God what is God's . He said it in modern Aramaic not quite as modern as Arabic but much more modern than Hebrew.

What do you think he meant?

I bet in Quebec we can draft at least 200 teams of Kraken and provide Israel and Iran two teams each.

Perfect article or more appropriate very timely.
