Prickly City by Scott Stantis for June 13, 2020

Preachin’ to the choir, sweeties, to the choir.

Half the people on earth are of below average intelligence.

(If you don’t get the joke, then we know which you are.)

Apart from hydrogen the most common thing in the universe is stupidity!! witness maga hat wearers!!

Blame it on my Asperger but I’m pretty OK to wear a facemask and keep the social distance

What about people with OCD these days?

Day 50 of the Georgia Economic Recovery. A gorgeous day here, worthy of celebrating freedom.

“Die for the Dow!”

“After all, if your long-term medical problems, hospitalization, and even death helps a multi-national company buy back just a single share of its own stock, won’t it be worth it?

“It’s a sacrifice that the idle rich are prepared to make!”

(Or is that stupid?)

Day 1240 of the Right Wing control of the Presidency, Supreme Court, and both Houses of Congress.

With a somewhat Left tilt for the House only, 529 Days ago.

Are you better off than you were on Jan 19, 2017?

“You know the very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. They don’t alter their views to fit the facts. They alter the facts to fit the views. Which can be uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs altering.”

The Doctor

Some of my best friends are people. When they get together in great numbers, other people often suffer.

Bumper sticker wisdom: “I used to be a People Person, but People cured me of that.”

The disturbing percentage is the 40-some percent of Americans who are ok with being on the same side as the Klan. They elected the Klan-endorsed candidate in 2016, and they declared solidarity with them by embracing Hillary’s “deplorable” term.

It’s no coincidence that Trump planned rallies on Juneteenth at the site of the Tulsa massacre, and in Jacksonville on the anniversary of the ax handle Klan riot.

I will call peoples attention to the Dunning–Kruger effect. :-)

Raise that 1% and you get Sturgeon’s Recursion: 90% of everything is crap; 90% of the rest is also crap.

The other 2% suffer from Dunning-Kruger.

That depends on.who is reporting that statistical information, Fox or CNN.
