*rapidly moving away from THAT subject*
"Every sheep of the pasture probably imagines that in an emergency it could become terrible as an army with banners -- one has only to watch how they stamp their feet and stiffen their necks when a minor object of suspicion comes into view and behaves meekly. And probably the majority of human sheep see themselves in imagination taking great parts in the world's more impressive dramas, forming swift, unerring decisions in moments of crisis, cowing mutinies, allaying panics, brave, strong, simple, but, in spite of their natural modesty, always slightly spectacular."
Saki, in "The Sheep"

Except our "conservatives" are actually more like Spanish Falangists than Nazis --and have been for a long time. |

“This is beyond narcissism. I used to think Trump was an 11-year-old, an undeveloped schoolyard bully. I was off by about 10 years. His needs are more primitive, an infantile hunger for approval and praise, a craving that can never be satisfied.” ~Charles Krauthammer

From a recent episode of Bill Maher, during a discussion about the 'Pubs' refusal to check Spoiled Meat Man at all:
Axios reporter whose name escapes me: They're shit scared.
Former Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm: Then they should be shit out of office. |

"Being taunted by can-canning drag queens was a new experience for the NYPD." - from a BBC Radio documentary on Stonewall
They also mentioned that. when shit started to get crazy, the initial cops who were there actually ran inside the Stonewall Inn to get safe. |

I'm at the library and don't have the book with me, but in The Pentagon: A History by Steve Vogel he points out that there was apparently always anxiety about who might want to aim a nuclear weapon at the building because in some people's eyes it looked like a giant bullseye. Right before the Cuban Missile Crisis someone in a newspaper commented that "nobody would ever bomb the Pentagon because that would eliminate the confusion in the U.S. military." That made me smile.  |

Too good to be true, and yet apparently true story about the Pentagon:
Back in the good old bad old cold war days, the Soviet Union's satellite intelligence bureau convinced the KGB that there was some kind of massive underground bunker/briefing room underneath the Pentagon's central courtyard.
The evidence? Satellite photographs of large groups of Pentagon staff clustering around the center of the courtyard, and several small structures that, the Soviets assumed, were the entrances to stairwells leading down.
In reality, as the KGB later learned, these mysterious structures were hot dog stands.
