Trae and the MAGA Matrix
Trae discusses the election outlook and what to do about it.
BTW, don't be fooled by the redneck act. Trae is one smart sumbitch; and you can find the definition of prima nocta here.

Men Exposed (1999)
An HBO show-and-tell about dicks. Highly interesting.
I happened upon this doco the other day, coinciding with a mix of memories, feelings, and reflections I've been having lately about my life as a gay man. At the dawn of my seventies, I have a greater perspective about many things that used to worry or trouble me - as well as a few new things to think about (old age is a surprise).
Perhaps I will share some of those thoughts and new realizations with my truckbuddies in days to come; suffice it to say, I feel much better about myself nowadays than in my lonely, troubled youth.
To be content with what we are and what we have - especially those things we cannot change - is the path of wisdom and the well of peace. In this frantic "more and better" world, "good enough" is an overlooked blessing.
Rejoice in the day, for the night is coming.

Sunday Drive: I Get Around
Ah, the sounds of summer - 60 years ago (!) and still just as fine as ever. The Beach Boys performed this hit on the Ed Sullivan Show on September 27, 1964:
The crazed modern world has nothing to compare to this.

Trae Loves Tim
Trae Crowder is excited about Kamala's VP pick, and why shouldn't he be? I agree with everything he says here. So listen up now.
P.S.-- M.P. has signed up for Ground News and says he likes it a lot, much better than the default news he was getting on his computer. I'm afraid to change my settings, you never know what unintended consequences that will bring. But I scan a lot of different news sources anyway.

Kamala Picks Walz for VP
 |
| A winning team - I do hope. |
Of course Kamala picked Walz. Just as I advised her to do a couple of weeks ago.
Walz is a crowd-pleaser; now the campaign gets into high gear with a full ticket. I like Walz; he's a regular guy, a good neighbor, a happy fella. But is there anything more to him than the popular coach who fires up a pep rally? We shall see.
NBC News:
CBS News:
Sky News (UK):
Former Speaker Pelosi on Morning Joe:
Update, 7:45 p.m.: Walz's speech in full at the Philadelphia rally where he was introduced by Vice President Harris as her running mate today:

| Tim Walz on guard for America, ca. 1982. A man who knows how to handle his gun is OK by me. |

Starmer Has BALLS
How refreshing to see a Western leader who speaks plainly and acts decisively in a crisis:
The BBC provides a summary of this weekend's riots and the Government's response:

Why Trump Doesn't Want Votes
What if your vote never gets counted? Rachel explains how that could happen.
It is entirely plausible that a party bent on achieving permanent and absolute power would not sit idly by, waiting for the whims of the electorate to decide their fate.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
