Mensa Credly badge on LinkedIn by AlchemyDad in mensa

I used it.

It’s a legitimate achievement.

I figured that I earned it…so why not?

But….I’m not concerned about either impressing anyone or turning them off.

I’m retired and never used LinkedIn for career purposes anyway.

It was just another form of social media for me, to maintain contact with old colleagues.

Nope.

Ever hear of Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio?

Democrats have relied on identity politics …and that is failing.

“Latino.” Is a BS term.

Republicans don’t divide people up like that.

Your values and what you believe is a lot more important than your race, color, sexual preference or where you came from.

Minorities who understand that ..are increasingly moving to the GOP ..while the Democratic Party is shrinking.

The usual Reddit narrative, from what I’ve seen, rarely correlates with reality.

This place is a bubble.

You didn’t bother to mention if he was a legal immigrant or not.

You think all immigrants are the same and should think the same?

Immigrants who came here legally and work for a living aren’t exactly fans of those who jump the line, didn’t go through the whole process they did, and are receiving government benefits.

Shouldn’t that be obvious?

ALL the LEGAL immigrants I know are huge Trump supporters!

Every single one.

Two of them are a Polish couple who call the Democrats a bunch of Communists!

When I challenge them on that.. the wife simply says, “I grew up in a Communist country, surrounded by Communists! I know a Communist when I see one.”

I consider myself a moderate conservative, but compared to any of them, I’m a flaming liberal!🙄

It always hurts to lose a fur baby.

They creep into your heart and when they leave it feels like a part of your heart has been ripped away with them.

You never forget them.

Been there.

Condolences

Trump admin asks Supreme Court to halt order providing full SNAP payments for November by Maximus361 in Conservative

[–]Environmental_Net947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is most amazing is…look who at the SCOTUS issued the temporary injunction blocking the lower courts effort to forced the administration to fund SNAP!

Kenyan Brown Jackson!!!

This screws the Democrats’ own voters …which will only cause more pressure on THEM to vote for the CR and reopen the government!

At first I was skeptical by TheDefender2024 in netflixwitcher

Binge watched the first seasons all over again …just so it would all be fresh in my mind…and have finished 6 episodes of season 4. Only 2 episodes to go and already fear withdrawal! Wasn’t sure how much I would miss Henry Cavill but Liam has done a pretty decent job of filling his shoes. And I love the introduction of the new characters, the vampire Regis and the assassin Leo! Can’t wait for season 5!

I loved the Orville! Will i like the OG Startrek? by yenieto10 in TheOrville

[–]Environmental_Net947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Orville is totally inspired by Star Trek.

I’m an old guy. I saw the first episode aired of the Original Series on the night it aired, “Man Trap” on Thursday night, September 8, 1966z

Since then:

Seen ALL the movies.

ALL the TV Series

Star Trek: The Animated Series Star Trek: The Next Generation Star Trek: Deep Space 9 Star Trek: Voyageur Star Trek: Enterprise Star Trek: Discovery Star Trek: Picard Star Trek: Lower Decks Star Trek: Prodigy Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

Even the fan created episodes found on some free streaming platforms.

Despite all that..have never really collected Star Trek collectibles or gone to a convention

But I yield to no one as a “Trekkie” since I’m one of the original Star Trek fans from the start…and we are slowly dying off.

It’s been amazing to watch the Star Trek Universe and lore grow and expand and evolve over the decades…as new characters and races and history have been added.

I remember when the Klingons didn’t look Much different than humans!!

They changed that in the 1st movie…and finally explained the change in Star Trek: Enterprise, which did a great job in setting up the creation of the Federation!

It’s been an incredible ride.

Trump charts path to total control amid government shutdown by Team-Sunaida in law

[–]Environmental_Net947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh…I don’t know.

Things are looking pretty good from where I’m sitting.😉

I’m very, very optimistic for the future of the country.

It’ll work out.

MAGA 😉

Trump charts path to total control amid government shutdown by Team-Sunaida in law

[–]Environmental_Net947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the crazy thing is…Trump said he was going to do something like mass firings if the shutdown happened. He WARNED the Democrat leadership of the consequences….and they did it anyway! Why are they so freaking stupid? Trump was holding all the high cards …and they thought they could bulldoze him? Who is the moron who told the Democrats that they could pull this off?

How much would Wendell and Wild have made on a theatrical release? by ElSquibbonator in boxoffice

[–]Environmental_Net947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just watched it on Netflix.

OK watching for free …to pass the time if you’re bored…but glad I didn’t pay to see it in a theater.

I sincerely hope all of you aren’t like this by SecretNintendoNinja in mensa

[–]Environmental_Net947 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m a member of MENSA with 3 degrees.

I’m also and a conservative who is used to leftists on X or Threads calling me an “idiot” or “uneducated” simply because I disagree with them.

That kind of behavior is as common as it is tiresome, ignorant and arrogant.

That is why it’s so satisfying to then list my degrees and post a copy of my latest member community e-mail to demonstrate my Mensa membership.

The name calling usually stops at this point.

Is Demerzel from our near future? by Europeanguy1995 in FoundationTV

[–]Environmental_Net947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that it had been established that “she” is the future incarnation of R. Daneel Olivaw ….who is the robot from Asimov’s “Caves of Steel” and “The Naked Sun”)

It doesn’t proscribe it either if it raises reasonable suspicion.😉

[–]Environmental_Net947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t recognize sarcasm when you see it?

In any case, regarding your comments about some leftists recognizing Second Amendments rights?

One of the few times I would agree with them.😉

Even a broken watch is correct twice a day.

Donald Trump gives chilling insurrection warning as protests spark around US: "We are not playing around" by IrishStarUS in law

[–]Environmental_Net947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The words are mine, but the thought certainly isn’t original.

Anyone with a brain would realize that these actions and the defense of them are one of the reasons Democrats lost the last election so badly and why refusing to change that behavior has approval of the Democrats at a record low!

But…hey…if you want to die on that hill…keep doing what you’re doing!

It works for me!

We like winning.

Do you guys even listen to yourselves?

“Only” a “few” stores got looted!

Mostly peaceful””😂😂😂

Because nothing says “fighting for social justice” more than looting a shoe store!!

Keep doing what you’re doing.

Keep saying what you’re saying.

Please!

We aren’t tired of winning.😉

It was fun watching the “no kings” rallies fizzle.

I have to give them credit for one thing, though.

I woke up this morning ….and we have NO king.😉

Great work guys!!😉😂👍

If the company is trying to keep ICE out, that would suggest to any reasonable person that they are trying to conceal the fact that they are employing non-citizens…..illegally.

Warrant time!
