Quackers's JournalAn observation.
Currently, in the GD forum, there are over a half dozen threads about the gun thing in Virginia and only two about MLK. This is what they wanted. To take away from MLK and the struggle for justice and equal rights he fought for. Im not saying to ignore the rally in Virginia, just dont let it overshadow what today is truly about.
I found Trumps playbook!
Ive had a game called Plague Inc. for several years now. Since I currently have the flu, I figured, lets infect the world.
When I logged into the game, I noticed it has a new play option. Fake News.
You start off picking a subject you want to start fake news on, pick a group to blame it on, and choose a reason you want to do this. For example, Trumpanzee story was started by politicians about climate change blaming scientists, for political and personal fame.
As I played through one game, I noticed several options for helping me spread my fake info and attacking those who tried to stop it. Some of these options include:
Calling unfavorable news fake
Tweeting out attacks against people who disagree
Accusing fact checkers of being biased
Angrily claiming its a witch hunt
Digging up dirt on fact checkers
Creating fake fact checker companies to corroborate your story
Blaming the news media
Encouraging your supporters to openly attack opposition so they be afraid to challenge you
Setting up websites, forums, and online advertising to help spread your story
Purchasing partial ownership in a news outlet
And so much more!
Now I cant be for certain, but I believe we have found the source of Trumps ideas to help him take over the world. Given, my version is just a game with a global map, but Trumps map is very real and the choices hes making is affecting us all. Who will win?

My pet peeve over tonight's debate.
My candidate is guilty of it too.
Every time a candidate is in the middle of talking, they sternly say, LOOK! And then proceed on with their point. I get it! You want everyones attention! But everyone is already looking at you! We cant look any harder without risking a brain aneurysm!
I dont know why it bothers me but it does.
Is Performing Pelvic Exams on Unconscious Women Without Informed Consent Legal?
Just to clarify, I am a guy and this doesnt affect me personally. I just wanted to bring awareness to this issue because I do not believe this is common knowledge to that many people.
I was doing some research this morning on the primaries of all things, when I stumbled across a statement that didnt sound believable.
An unconscious woman may be given multiple vaginal exams by multiple people without ever knowing it happened.
After looking into this, I landed on a Snopes page that does in fact confirm it to be true. In 45 states, it is legal. Most of the time it is done by medical students or groups of medical students, even though theres no medical reason for the exam. They can take turns inserting their fingers all while youre unconscious.
Now I know some will say its to help teach the next generation of doctors, but then why no consent? Also, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American Medical Association, and the Association of American Medical Colleges has each condemned the practice, yet its still legal.
If youd like to read more, heres the link to snopes.
