Big Brother, which is no longer the government, it's big business that is because they bought and paid for the government long ago, Is watching!!!!!!!!!

Just to prove to Y'all just how weird my mind can get...... This dream I had last night........ (couldn't have made this stuff up an acid trip)...... John Wayne was trying to escape some outlaws so...... he commandeered a buckboard to get away........ Now here's the thing...... The buckboard was being pulled by an OSTRICH!!!!!! You know, those big [BLEEP] birds that can't fly......... How the hell did a bird, that can only be found in Africa, end up in a John Wayne Western........

Thank God it was an Ostrich and not an Emu in a green polka dot cowboy hat..

We woulda had the exact same dream!!

That woulda been [BLEEP] weird!!

How do they know this information? And thank God my truck is analog. 

A study by the Mozilla Foundation found that 84% of 25 different car brands analyzed, including Nissan, Toyota, Chevy, BMW and Kia, share and sell customer data. This includes not just driving habits, but also potentially sensitive information including medical records, genetic data and even details about your sex life.

It doesn't come anywhere near close to justice, but it's a good start.  Prison will take care of the rest.
So we have a CosMcs opening near us.  Apparently McDonalds is getting into the (primarily) beverage industry to try to compete with Starbucks and other coffee shops.  I’ll be interested to see how they do.  I believe this will only be their third location.

I heard this guy talk on the radio.  He brought up a couple of startling points which clearly indicate the harmful effects that social media and smartphones have caused with the current generation of children and young adults. 

The first was a discussion with different groups of teenagers and college students. When asked how many actively participated in social media, almost all raised their hands. When then asked how many wished they had never participated at all, nearly the same number again raised their hands. They know it's self-destructive but young minds craving social acceptance overrides self-discipline. 

The other was both startling and unsurprising. Up until 2010, teenaged boys and men in their 20s suffered more broken bones than any other segment of the population because teenaged boys and men in their 20s are more daring than any other segment of the population. Today, those two groups are less likely to suffer broken bones than their fathers and grandfathers. In just 14 years, technology has turned social and biological norms on their head. 

Scary stuff.
