THE GREEN NEW DEAL: That was then; this is now.

Liars lie.

JUST IN TIME FOR THE GREEN NEW DEAL'S CAR-FREE SOCIETY: Austin technology firm may have solved drive-thru ordering mishaps.

What's next in the Green New Deal? A resurgence in (solar powered) buggy whip technology?

YOU WERE EXPECTING SOMETHING DIFFERENT? Soaring rates of mental illness among college students. They're being taught to be weak, dependent, and depressed - what would you expect to happen?

I will add in passing that the same is true with medicine - the current 'wellness' crapola is teaching the same thing about your health - that you're expected to be sick.

It's about control - don't you know you can only be happy and healthy if you let us progressives dictate every aspect of your lives? And unhappy and unhealthy if you don't?

It's always about control....

THE VICTORY GIRLS' MARTA HERNANDEZ writes on the Democrats' Green New deal, pink unicorns, leprechauns, and pipe dreams:

[T]his is Occasional-Cortex’s Christmas list – the list she gives Santa when she sits on his lap and jumps up and down in wide-eyed excitement and demands a purple pony under her tree. It’s not serious, and it’s certainly not viable. It’s the delusional rambling of an immature, self-important, impudent child who thinks she’s entitled to be taken seriously because she managed to hoodwink a bunch of frothing proglodytes into voting for her with a cute Twitter presence.

Read it all.

WHO SAID GLOBAL WARMING IS BAD? Climate change may clean the streets of San Francisco.

ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ GOES TO WASHINGTON:

A plane is on its way to Washington, DC, when a Democrat, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who is seated in Economy Class, gets up and moves to the First Class section and sits down.

The flight attendant watches her do this and asks to see her ticket. She then tells the future congresswoman that she paid for Economy Class and that she will have to sit in the back.

Cortez replies, “I’m a Democrat, I’m beautiful, I’m socialist, I’m going to DC and I’m staying right here.”

The flight attendant goes into the cockpit and tells the pilot and the co-pilot that there is a Democrat bimbo sitting in First Class, she belongs in Economy and she won’t move back to her seat.

The co-pilot goes back to Ocasio-Cortez and tries to explain that because she only paid for Economy she will have to leave and return to Economy. Ocasio-Cortez replies, “I’m a Democrat, I’m beautiful, I’m socialist, I’m going to DC and I’m staying right here.”

The co-pilot returns to the cockpit and tells the pilot that he probably should have the police waiting when they land to arrest the future congresswoman who won’t listen to reason.

The pilot says, “You say she is a Democrat Socialist? I’ll handle this, I’m married to a liberal. I speak socialist.”

He goes back to the Democrat and whispers in her ear, and she says, “Oh, I’m sorry.” She then gets up and goes back to her seat in Economy.

The flight attendant and co-pilot are amazed and ask him what he said to make her move without any fuss.”I told her, ‘First Class isn’t going to DC.’"

SHE THOUGHT HER '15 MINUTES OF FAME' WOULD INSULATE HER FROM BEING MOCKED. Ocasio-Cortez gaslights ‘Green New Deal’.

ELECTRIC VEHICLES? Don’t let ‘em get cold!

Hey, not to worry - that's why Al Gore et al. created Global Warming.

A QUESTION FOR ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ: Which came first, the solar panel factory or the solar panel?

A BRIEF SUMMARY of the Virginia Democratic Party dumpster fire.

Heh.

ANALYSIS, TRUE: "The Green New Deal is not meant to be serious legislation ... but to burnish the Democrats’ reputation as caring...."

Well, it's certainly burnished their reputation for stupidity.

SPAM CALLS have stopped people from answering their phones. Uh, huh. If we don't recognize the number, we don't answer. The call goes automatically to the answering machine, which tells the caller if a message isn't left, the calling number will be blocked. No message, no recognized caller ... blocked.

TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS AND THE GLOBAL SEX RECESSION: "[T]here’s a good argument that the same society that’s giving us better machines is giving us worse people." I wouldn't call it persuasive - yet - but it's a thought worth pursuing.

DEMOCRATS should read Tocqueville.

A FROG-SIZED BRAIN would be an improvement.
