I never will pursue a child. I might have some comment on their behavior or marvel at just how deep they might dig their hole in the eyes of the law ...

But by and large children are by definition not mature and when you take the trouble to fill them with much in the way of false information in the public schools then loose them on the world such as that to be had by the leftist indoctrination imposed in the United States public schools — then you pretty much deserve the stupid mess you acquire.

This is why I have chosen to remain quiet regarding this particular individual for such an extended period. Were she an adult I would have been upon her immediately like stink on poop.

The angry little Swedish teen environmental activist Greta Thunberg has been in the threads since addressing the 2018 United Nations Climate Change Conference with her haughty child "how dare you" statements casting aspersions on the world due to her decidedly slanted global view.

Stating that she 'will never forgive' them for failing on climate change she has pretty much pursued her petty little self righteousness in the name of what she believes will happen to the world in 12 years from climate change secondary to her distorted world view. Her leftist imparted tainted science likely acquired as the result of a diminished intellectual capacity in the Swedish school systems leaves me nothing but embarrassed for her and her parents as she continues this tack of parroting that which she's been taught. I feel she acquired this all too honestly.

When those who explain the world to a child are less steeped in fact than sensationalist fiction the child will likely carry those faulty notions a long way. When there are organizations willing to exploit these points for their own ends then voila, you get children like little Greta Thunberg who should simply stay home and keep quiet rather than embarrass herself in the annals of history.

Climate has a cyclic record of change. There are practicalities involved in changing the way the world operates that cannot be implemented as a matter of fact immediate change out. Cow patties and carbon foot prints are less important when you attribute them to the minority causing their production. She should have addressed those nations such as China who are the real culprets rather than assail the lesser culprets in the equation.

I'm not saying that the hoopla does not have elements of correctness. I'm saying that it does not take into consideration far too many aspects in it's simplistic approach much like the "new green deal" fallacy presented elsewhere.

It is far better to remain quiet and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt. I prefer to consider her efforts somewhat sophomoric. At any rate, she should save the drama for her Mama. Climate change is not for the uniniated nor should it be the propaganda it has largely become.
 

When I was a kid I had no end of trouble with mathematics. Those problems snowballed throughout elementary and secondary educations until after then Navy when I discovered I was a wiz with algebra with words.

So I became this 'natural' of an applications programmer doing primarily high level stuff until I branched out into AI with list processing using Franz and Common Lisp after a brief spate of Turbo Prolog.
 

My initial work in PL/1 made it all possible and indeed, during the xBase years I became a legend in my own mind. I learned how to shift datasets on the fly, cook books, and amass great volumes of statistical data like it was a walk in the park.

So today is the date of World Statistics Day. It went down for the first time in 2010. An international observance, it is celebrated every 5 years.

Though I don't see the reason for the increment, the "actual" next World Statistics Day will be celebrated on October 20 2020. I'm cool with this early trigger finger because it actually means something to me in all the democrat nothingness in my surroundings.

The statistics are telling on the democrats with their numbers diminishing steadily because of liars like Pelosi, Schiff, Schumer, and Nadler. The party becomes it's own worst enemy.
 

I have high blood pressure. It's likely due to my corpulence and frequent lapses in good dietary practices ...

But I try to maintain a steady compliance with my medicine in an attempt to avoid any undue sequela of my less than optimal genetic makeup.

So my physician added a second pill in the recent past to the other two I was already taking. It has a different action and by and large there have been no untoward side effects.

Aside from the usual "blood pressure pill hell" I sometimes get myself into when I take the drugs on an empty stomach or drink excessive amounts of coffee and such.

So with the intense urgency is my perception of some 'bladder proximity alert' which appears to fire when I arise from my desk and my travels bring me close to a rest room.

The urgency kicks in full force for some unforseen reason.

Be all of this as it may the alternatives are quite grim in the prognosis department for those who don't comply with blood pressure meds.

This being the case I suppose I shall simply abide.
 

I hate a stupid click bait web site. These sites with preconceived notions of what you're supposed to do when you go there.

These little pop up apps which are supposedly guiding you through a visit as though you're there to compare their wares like some trained monkey before you plop down your plastic and let them fleece you.

Chalk it up to the millennials. They are the ones some of these site are expecting to see. Engaging a customer with half a brain doesn't even cross their creativityless dullard minds.

Like Amazon. Remove your payment card and they rig your accounts so they may never be used again. Like the payment card industry standards don't matter when they conflict with their uppity retail retard policies.

... And the UTTER stupidity of those liar representatives they employ is becoming legendary.

So I'm satisfied to do my shopping in more brick and mortar establishments. These web experiences grow more and more banal and obtuse with the absolutely required tedium and underhandedness as every day passes.
