Tacky Beats Elegant

Here you go.

edit... the link is to a diary hosted at dkos - it does not link to the owner himself (as far as I know). I'm sorry that I didn't leave that part in the final result. (I had started with a title that included that fact, but it was a clumsy title.) Still, the diary itself is at least worth a look - at least in my opinion...

Lots of links. And lots of ideas about the future (a little scary too). Not much to say, at least from me.

Except this hopeful thought: Tacky beats Elegant - eventually. And maybe Tacky will save the world - eventually. It can't help itself. It's sort of like passing gas after eating way too much.

best, john

And, warmongers/murderers are not elegant.

If I hadn't been on my phone I could have hovered over link to see it was from the Orange Shit Stain, but now I gave Little Napoleon a click.

Deja's alert in comments came too late.

I wouldn't have clicked that link if I'd know where it led. Have not voluntarily given Boss Markos a click (even with an ad blocker) since I signed out for good and very much prefer not to.

Thank you!

and look in the lower left hand corner of your screen. You will see where it goes (the www address). A trick someone here taught me.

That info should keep me out of that particular septic tank.

Sadly, some of the most elegant solutions involve war or worse. One or two bombs can be elegant weapons, three peaceful passenger jets can be turned into elegant weapons, a few blankets used to comfort smallpox victims can be turned into elegant weapons.

Unlikely? Not really. Elegance has multiple faces and Tacky has multiple faces.

As far as linking to dkos (yes like Harry Potter, I can use a name), I consider it as sort of like Draco's mother. or Ron's older brother, Percy. It takes a lot of energy to keep a grudge burning bright. And I need my energy for other things. But that's just me.
