   Not true, and I won’t believe you because I read a book about Instagram and it convinced me it was too stupid. Tried and abandoned a number of so-called social media websites, but most of them should be called antisocial websites. And sometimes the comments on this one qualify…

   But I am trying to cut down on my reading these years. Other stuff to do, but I still ran past 100 books and there’s a month to go…

   I think the religious fanatics are doing a rewrite in pursuit of a theocracy. The Christians should pay more attention to the later “projects” along such lines. Yeah, I’m thinking of the Muslims and the Mormons… Maybe the Scientologists if they ever get regional dominance?

   I think everything is funny since I realized “They can’t scramble the dregs without breaking the eggheads.” It’s especially funny since the orange puppet is part of the dregs but he thinks it’s only the fools who voted for him who are dregs and meanwhile it’s the moot eggheads who still think “All men are created equal” in some Turing machine sense.

   You’re feeding some sort of troll, though the way things work these days, you might be a sock puppet the troll is using to stir things up. I keep fantasizing about a good social network website. ROFLMAO.

    Thanks for replying ahead of me, though I wouldn’t exactly say “uppity” as the reason. Perhaps something like “irrationally eager”? My memory is fuzzy, but I also think there was some kind of personal thing against the leader of the SA. I should check the details, as you suggested.
