Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

"I majored in Gender Studies. You want fries with that?"

You make me laugh. Now go to gulag.

Seriously, what do you do with a gender studies degree? Besides working in the DIE department of a huge corporation, or some government agency. Its litterally good for nothing.

Wait a minute! Those are cushy BlueAnon sinecures, where one may channel his/hers/its inner commissar to the hearts content. So...mission accomplished!

France's Macron Warns of 'Civil War' If He Loses Next Month's Parliamentary Elections

Sounds like he is taking a page from the Democratic Party's playbook.

Civil war in France is inevitable. The real choice is fight now when the "French" have a chance to win or later when the invaders have the best chance to win. The EU (and the UN) has been captured by the new world order and it is nothing but a tool for the invasion and destruction of Europe. Watch Ireland to see what the future holds for Europe. Why Ireland? Because for political and social reasons Ireland has been depopulated over many decades and has a very small population. So when tens of thousands of invaders/immigrants were placed there by the powers in the EU it almost immediately had a larger than life impact of native Irish people. But the Irish are fighters and after enduring numerous attacks by these invaders the Irish are fighting back. But... That's not allowed. Watch what the EU powers do and how they punish the Irish for daring to object to the invasion. Soon Ireland will be like Ukraine and the Irish will have to choose to stay and fight or flee to other countries as refugees. France, Italy, England; your next!

Shiny monolith removed from mountains outside Las Vegas. How it got there still is a mystery

QUOTE:
Its discovery over the weekend, and quick removal because of public safety and environmental concerns. . .


What a great excuse for stealing something they don't want the public to see.

QUOTE:
It was the latest discovery in a series of mysterious columns that have popped up since at least 2020.


I vaguely remember this.

Would you believe 245 of these worldwide since someone started keeping track? Get your monolith on at the Monolith Tracker website.
