The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Act Like an Adult


For John, BLUFI was going to title this post "Be an Adult", but that might be too hard for some people.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




From The New York Post, 3 December 2017, Ms Karol Markowicz.

Here is the lede plus three:

If you’ve interacted with me on social media lately, you probably noticed something:  I haven’t called you a clown since August.

You’re welcome.

About four months ago, I did the unthinkable:  I stopped name-calling on Twitter.  While I was never a very combative person, on Twitter or in real life, I have always enjoyed the clapback.  I’m a mild-mannered mother of three — but if crossed I, as my husband calls it, “go Brooklyn.”  When someone does something stupid, I am quick to point it out, and not in the gentlest of terms.

A shortlist of people I had called a “clown,” my favorite of all the insults, on Twitter, includes Michael Bloomberg, Tupac Shakur, Barack Obama, Ron Reagan Jr., Al Sharpton and, more times than anyone else, Donald Trump.  Many random Twitter users have been on the receiving end of my calling them a “dummy” or an “idiot.”

We all could benefit from this woman's example.

Hat tip to Rob Eno.
