Well Blows Me Down

This is from a Popeye cartoon. I was surprised I could capture it from YouTube (without getting the big “Pause” button showing in the middle). But I suppose you kids with your Sony Walkmans and other gizmos consider it easy.

Friday Night Open Thread: 2028

Do you want to go on record now, predicting who will be the 2028 Republican presidential candidate?

Frankly, I wouldn’t recommend it. If you’re right, all you’ll get is “Duh, well yeah, it was inevitable.” And if you’re wrong… eternal shame and embarrassment.

I predict Vance, but would be happy with Rubio if it isn’t Vance.

Can’t picture both those dropping out and being replaced by Hegseth, Cruz, or Tulsi, but I’d support them, as well.

Please, no talk of Don Jr.!

And the Democrat POTUS candidate? Haven’t we had enough commies and puppets already?

Although much of the technology remains speculative, the Russian company Neiry claims to have directly implanted neural devices in the brains of dairy cows…

The company said in its announcement that the cows that received the initial neurostimulation devices ‘remained conscious, felt well, experienced no discomfort, and have already returned to their normal production cycles on the farm.’ It did not detail how the devices were implanted, what research went into designing them or what animal welfare precautions were taken.

More interesting still is just how such a device would affect cows in the first place.
