| 6ixStringJack: Don't ever bring up anything having to do with math, statistics or numbers to me. You should know this by now. You are retarded and you don't understand how basic math works. |
| 6ixStringJack: Irrelevant. You can't compare prices in China to prices in the US. Not when it would likely cost 10 times as much to get nuclear plants up and running in California than it would Indiana. Not when housing and rent in blue shitholes is stupid expensive to most of the rest of the country. Take whatever disingenuous "point" you were trying to make and go bounce on it, stupid. I don't waste anymore time debating Lefty low-IQ morons. |
| second: 6ix, can you tell which is cheaper? China has nuclear construction costs of approximately $3 billion per gigawatt while utility-scale solar in China is estimated at roughly $260 million per gigawatt. |
| 6ixStringJack: As for the rest of your "thoughts" that were given to you by your overlords today, Second, save them. Nobody cares about your TDS anymore either. |
| 6ixStringJack: Nuclear power is only expensive because YOU made it expensive. The good news is that YOU only made the old ways of making plants expensive and we will get around that by having much smaller plants and many, many more of them. Solar and Windmill farms were a complete waste of money and a hobbyist project turned into yet another government run money laundering scheme. We don't believe any of your bullshit anymore and all of your so-called experts are con-men and crooks. |
| second: Trump listens to Putin, he listens to Xi, he listens to how they talk about governing unburdened by uncooperative legislatures, unconcerned with what the judiciary may do, and he thinks to himself, Why can’t I do that? This doesn’t amount to being a fascist, in my view, or having a theory of how you want to govern. It’s just Why can’t I have the same fun they have? [go to link] |
| second: t’s Time to Talk About Donald Trump’s Logorrhea, Part 3.
“It is remarkable how a man cannot summarize his thoughts in even the most general sort of way without betraying himself completely,” Thomas Mann wrote a century ago, in his novel “The Magic Mountain,” set in a sanitarium perched above the Swiss mountain town of Davos, where Trump spent the better part of this week proving to the stunned attendees of the annual World Economic Forum the continuing relevance of Mann’s observation.

| second: It’s Time to Talk About Donald Trump’s Logorrhea, Part 2.
There are many conclusions to be drawn from this astonishing statistic, including the obvious one, that our leader loves the sound of his own voice, and the slightly less obvious corollary that he has no one around him willing or able to tell him to shut up. It’s also true that, in rambling on so much, Trump reveals just about everything one could ever want to know about him—his lack of discipline, his ignorance, his vanity, insecurity, and crudeness, and a mean streak that knows no limits.

| second: It’s Time to Talk About Donald Trump’s Logorrhea, Part 1.
Donald Trump is an editor’s nightmare and a psychiatrist’s dream. Amid all the coverage marking the first anniversary of his return to the White House, one story—which did not get the attention it deserved—stood out for me: a Times analysis of how much more the President has been talking and talking and talking. The findings? One million nine hundred and seventy-seven thousand six hundred and nine words in the Presidential appearances, as of January 20th—an increase of two hundred and forty-five per cent compared with the first year of Trump’s first term in office, back in 2017.

| second: Bob Ebeling was anxious and angry as he drove to work on the morning of Jan. 28, 1986. He kept thinking about the space shuttle Challenger, cradled on a Florida launchpad 2,000 miles away. Ebeling knew that ice had formed there overnight and that freezing temperatures that morning made it too risky for liftoff. "He said we are going to have a catastrophic event today," recalled his daughter Leslie Ebeling, who, like her father, worked at NASA contractor Morton Thiokol and who was in the car in 1986 on that 30-mile drive to the company's booster rocket complex outside Brigham City, Utah. "He said the Challenger's going to blow up. Everyone's going to die. And he was beating his hands on the dashboard. … He was frantic." [go to link] |
| second: Trump made claims in Davos, including: 1) "Instead of building ineffective money-losing windmills, we're taking them down and not approving any" (wind turbines are the second cheapest option for new electricity generation capacity globally now, only trailing solar panels — and most of the world knows this) 2) "Every major oil company is coming with us" to invest in Venezuela, Trump also said. That's a blatant lie. 3) He called nuclear power "cheap and safe," even though it's the most expensive option for new power capacity — multiple times more expensive than those "windmills" he mentioned above. Is Donald Trump the dumbest block of cheese in world politics? [go to link] |
| 6ixStringJack: Everyone who was screaming and shitting their pants and telling us if Trump won it would be the end of Democracy should start wearing Depends under their suits and dresses from now on. We're going to unravel the whole thing now... smile: |
| 6ixStringJack: Uh oh... In the wake of the Somali fraud scandal that rattled Minnesota, the Trump administration will soon order a sweeping whole-of-government review of all federal funding awarded to 13 Democrat-leaning states and the District of Columbia, RealClearPolitics is first to report.

6ixStringJack: Suggestion... If you have an attached garage, park these in the street. If you have a detached garage that you like and you don't want to see burnt down for insurance purposes, park these in the street.  |
6ixStringJack: Nice. About 10,000 tons of worthless Chinese shit that won't get anywhere near our shores. I Had a early Chinese-made vape pen in my pocket many years back that actually caught on fire on its own and burnt a hole in my pants while I was wearing them. Don't cry for me, Argentina. Good luck!  |
| 6ixStringJack: As Trump talks tariffs, his Argentine ally welcomes a shipload of Chinese EVs for the first time. 5,000 electric cars from China arrive in Argentina, a symbol of Milei's relaxation on imports. (AP/ Victor R. Caivano) [go to link]# |

| 6ixStringJack: DEI hire Nia DaCosta who is a trash director that hasn't had a single success to her name up to this point just put out a new 28 years later movie. $63 Million budget, with another insane $70 Million marketing budget on top of it. What has it made in theaters? $34 Million worldwide in 8 days, with 2 of the last 3 days not even making $700k. Don't expect to see her ever get a movie with a budget again. Good riddance. |
