Shame on Hawaii. After blaming global warming for the fires in Maui instead of their own mismanagement, now the government is going to punish tourists by slapping them with a carbon footprint tax - not merely lodging in hotels and vacation rentals, but cruise ships as well. At this rate, the government will be looking next to tax boat rentals, beach towels and tiki torches. Paradise lost!

AI is the mother of all bubbles. When it pops, the explosion will take out most of the AI companies and all of their suppliers. Work will stop on half-finished AI data centers; others will be shuttered because there will be no money to maintain them. When corporations realize that ROI on billions of dollars invested never materialized, many will collapse under their own weight. The pariah? Sam Altman.

How did all this garbage - pure Sustainable Development, aka Technocracy - show up in our cities and states? Answer: a full-court barrage of UN agents. I dare you to search for your city and the words "climate action plan" on Google. You will be shocked! I estimate that seventy percent of all cities already have a formal plan, and another twenty percent are working on it.

As pressure increases on society to legalize "suicide", one must harken back to the 1973 cult movie "Soylent Green", staring Charlton Heston (Robert Thorn) and Edward G. Robinson (Sol). This totally dystopian movie is set in a world beset by shortages and environmental degradation, where people's corpuses are are recycled into food. Seeing no way out, Sol turns himself to the local euthanasia center.
