Remember Laughter more than Tears,
Remember Joy far more than Sorrow.
For Hatred feeds upon our Fears,
And Love shall free us all Tomorrow.

@JackPosobiec Falsch.Simple transit facility.

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

@DarrigoMelanie It is a transit facility ... NOT A LONG TERM HABITATION!

@elonmusk @grok Hey @grok. You previously told me that the Black Sea’s trade routes been fought over for over for over a thousand years… how long have they benn fought over?

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

@omni_scepticus @catturd2 @elonmusk @grok Antworte, bitte!

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

@omni_scepticus @catturd2 @elonmusk @grok Perhaps one ought consider the Blanck Sea as a strategic source of conflict for over a millennium?

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

@omni_scepticus @catturd2 @elonmusk @grok You earlier in a reply to me indicated the Black Sea’s trade importance was very important and ancient!

@catturd2 Up to the family for most minors. Journalistic courtesy in the past, but I suspect lots of coroners do not broadcast cause-of-death for minors.

@ewarren Get a new scriptwriter … one who can write instead of Xerox scripts!

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

@ProudUSPatriut @yoursimmo Do you realize the fact that old order and new order Amish and Mennonites are all present in Wisconsin? And Mennonites have no problems with Debbie? And new order Amish can even have electricity? Or are they all identical to you?

@AshleighL389060 @ChrisMurphyCT Personal Income taxes are based on INCOME TAXABLE TO THE PERSON and are not ASSET TAXES!

Did they not teach you this in junior high? We do not have Wealth Tax and countries which try generally end up ditching them!

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

@ChrisMurphyCT You post your script every day. You never show a single new thought. You are a mechanical man at this point … without thinking a whit, and posting sans wit.

Get a new Ghostwriter!

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

You are correct. At least we are not running autopen pardons while asleep! The primary candidates for deportation are now clearly criminal in nature … especially when they are afraid to return!
The best clue is when the Vocal Anti-Trump Cadre here post scripted screeds in unison! Nothing says mindlessness than identical posts on X! And they don’t even know it!

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

@catturd2 Vanilla and cinnamon also work!

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

@MilaLovesJoe That has been the law in the US for many years! Truckers who know no English tend not to know basic laws concerning proper operation of trucks and laws concerning such, ask a highway patrol officer!

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

This might actually have occurred somewhere … it is designed to make you realize that the study of early man is too often based on thinking societies did not know about others … and that assumption may not always have been correct!

10/10. As a note

Apologies for weird linkage! The goal is to present a different but rational view of social evolution … and I really do want input!

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

As approved by Grok!

A non-sermon

Any infant relives the existence of thought in itself … it has to understand light and color and sound and motion and music and more before it is even born! It hears voices that it will soon associate with people! It is preloaded with huge amounts of patterns to deal with the mystery of life!

And this has been for millions of years! Humans are just a fairly latecomer to this parade!
1/n

And yet, we, latecomers to the show, forget all that those early to the show learned and became so long ago.

painters give us walls, artists give us patterns of thought

Carpenters give us floors and walls, wood crafters give us art from wood

2/N

And all of this thought came from infants seeing the world for the very first time, knowing nothing and yet
Learning much.

But inland, life was hard, the paths to the sea were few, and blocked by animals that ruled the forest paths! Some plants had tasty fruit … tastier when they rotted a bit! Some could be caught and killed, but few were the places of rest for many at once … but eventually many found open areas where they could plant things that became tasty!

Then, stretching to an eastern desert with few oases, might have been groups of horsemen who needed towns for exchanging goods and stories as they were so separated for long periods of time … trading gems from the barren world they lived in..

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

Then, in tribes that were one tribe of many families, learned that joining together made food easier to find and grow … if they were on the shore they could eat fish, and fruits of nearby plants and trees, and drink fresh spring water and fermented grapes if they were lucky … and mate and trade with neighboring tribes!
6/n

And maybe even make boats to meet other tribes on the river and trade with them for pretty things, including mates!

7/n

[Dave Cunningham @Collect47]

And

From ancient lines of infants, I dare not guess how many, groups of people gathered … mainly knowing pretty early that mating with a close relative had problems … so groups gathered into simple tribes to gather the most convenient and easy to get food and shelters … and had to communicate with them (learning quickly that vocal cords usually were easier than fists - the strange origin of language was learned quite early!

4/n

These creatures learned by themselves, and had better physiology as well, to learn complex speech! It even worked better than punching!

@SenWarren Yeppers Poka just like WWII was a “Jewish war” to you! But sending billions to Z had nothing whatsoever to do with an undeclared war?
