Tor is freeware that enables anonymous communication on networks. It routes traffic over a free international network with relays all over that conceal a user location and blocks identity from those networks upon which their users might tread.

I have specific policies in place whereby access from tor networks is forbidden on my stuff. I have rules in place to assure this at several levels:

• Firewall rules block subnets known to me.
• Web server rules catch the bulk of the rest.

Very few tor networks escape this redundancy but I notice that the trickle of tor user access attempts haven't abated over the years to the point that I've stopped that bulk of block attempts in favor of letting the existing infrastructure handle the problem.

I'm not so much against anonymous access as I am those exploits too many tor users choose to attempt at my expense.

Sorry, but I'm all done being a sucker for web traffic and I'm happy to block anyone and everyone including google and anyone else out to exploit my sites.

No one else is going to make me their bitch. I don't care who you are.
 

Delusional chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Jerry Nadler appeared weak and looked like he was going down for the count at a presser held by equally hallucinating moron New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio Friday morning in Manhattan.

I suppose the stress of spouting the democrat standard bullcrap is starting to wear on his psyche because he looked really bad at the fete.

There's something about that realization that everything you're doing is a facade devoid of reality which can become toxic.

Sometimes it's better for a human to step back and perhaps discard that lack of reality in their lives.

Losing the fantasy aspects in much of my own life did wonders for me.
 

I'm sorry to say that I haven't made a paper airplane since well before the last time I spoke about this subject.

While aerodynamics and creativity are stimulating concerns I'm afraid the workaday world simply does not provide enough time otherwise for these pursuits.

National Paper Airplane Day is one of many observances and is observed each May 26 in the US in commemoriation of these home made toys tossed in elementary schools since time immemorial.

There are even competitions involving the creation and flying of paper airplanes with recorded statistics for posterity.

Not to knock it all, but there simply aren't enough hours in a day.
 

I'm off for the long weekend. In fact, I stretched it out from 3 to 10 days. It's a difficult matter to contend with everything going on anymore so I'm needing additional down time to recoup my losses of serenity and calm.

This is my second staycation in the recent past.

I don't really have any plans for Memorial Day itself. I think I might visit my father and step father's graves to pay my respects but that's about it.

I'm also probably going to release a little bug spray around the house. Not that there's a problem but I don't want one either. I usually pick a day when I will be out a long while.
 

Today is "Diversity Day" aka "The World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development" a UN response to the destruction of the Buddha statues of Bamiyan in Afghanistan in 2001.

While that act did indeed infuriate me personally, I have since come to know that underhanded thing called the UN and their goal to control all countries of the world and as globalism slowly dies this painful death reality is placing upon it all I can say is GET US OUT OF THE UN.

The promotion of diversity issues is a passe pursuit in the vein of identity politics and seeks to control freedom of speech and other aspects of the Bill of Rights in favor or some populist mythology like "transgenderism" and "sustainability".

While they view it as an opportunity to help communities understand the value of cultural diversity and learn how to live together in harmony I personally fail to see the value of a lot of others trying to seize control of my country and my life.

Diversity is fine when it happens. We neither need a catalyst nor regulations to control how we interact with others not like us.

I grew up in a Navy family which was colorblind.

My father never was one to speak harshly of other races in my presence.

I don't need the UN trying to teach me anything nor do I want it interfering in my government at any level.

I'd just as soon they moved somewhere else with their meddling.
