Tonight marks the 80th anniversary of the Slapton Sands (England) massacre of American soldiers practicing for an amphibious landing at a simulated UTAH Beach. German torpedo boats attacked the convoy, killing 750 troops. It's estimated that the lessons learned probably saved several thousand lives on D-Day. Incidentally, this information was classified for 30 years.
Happy International Women's Day.

Donald John TheRUMP is indicted.

s I agree with you and I live in the states. My grandpa is one of the pro T-Rump pod people. We even have our own code word when one of us is on the phone with him and needs to be rescued from his ranting, "PEACHES" a word that sounds innocent to him and remarkably like the word "impeached". The trouble is that he brings peach-flavored desserts to family gatherings now because he thinks peaches are our favorite fruit. We talk about them a lot.
A lot of US citizens have asked those same questions. Two years, and the last few witnesses to why and how the insurrection took place are due to appear. Two years of collecting and evaluating information, turning it into evidence that, hopefully, will convince a jury to convict TheRUMP.
It would be nicer if the 1000+ lawmakers and advisors who took part in one or more of the eight insurrection programs were convictable, too, but that's probably too much to expect. Still, if TheRUMP had been indicted immediately, we would probably never know the extent of the movement.
It's been mentioned that the first indictment (this is for campaign finance violations) may be all it takes to get the others started.
Add to those indictments the fact that several new investigationss have been opened at the federal level.
I'd better shup up at this stage.
The sad thing is I read there's nothing in the US Constitution stating that Presidential candidate must have a clean record. Even if he's convicted, there are still people who will follow him like lemmings. He could say the sun isn't hot, and they'd believe him and get excited about who to blame for the false science that he's uncovered. *Facepalm*
Happy anniversary 🎉

You could have left off the interesting bit... sometimes that can be more of a curse.
Only if you believe in nonexistent Chinese curses invented by white boys and blamed on the Chinese.
The original statement was written by Austen CHAMBERLAIN (brother to the later, HITLER-appeasing British ambassador) to describe life in the latter half of the 19th century.
By 1936, CHAMBERLAIN's statement had been bastardized into a fake Chinese curse.
Non-interesting lives are synonomous with stagnation. We see that, daily. They get by.
People with interesting lives are curious about the world around them, they're creative, and some of them gravitate to this site.
The creativity on this site is as diverse as the people associated with it (including family and friends of members as filtered through the members).
I'd like to see them help others learn to be creative, too, which will increase the "interesting" aspect.
Oh, yes. My original wish for everyone apparently needs two more words: ". . . without bias."
For those of you intrigued by nasty computer murder mysteries, you might like John Varley's novella "Press Enter".

Unfortunately - from a certain POV - WDC email addresses are valid from outside the site, too. This leaves them open to the occasional phishing / spam stuff like you received.
Got very similar. It’s hard to imagine that working as phishing bait. I guess is someone were waiting for a money transfer from Darv they might respond. *Crazy*
