Hello peeps

 A few things to talk about:

Susan started a thoughtful thread 

https://disqus.com/home/discussion/snowflakes-forum/battle_of_the_sexes/

But got worried the subject matter was inappropriate so now on that thread I am getting:

Sorry, the page you were looking for in this blog does not exist.

So, does anyone want to talk about the Battle of the Sexes? 

Furthermore: 

Everyone seemed to like my last thread on songs covered by other bands:

https://snowflakesforum.blogspot.com/2024/02/covers.html

Is there an author on my list that want to take on the task of doing a music thread once a week or every other week? 

Or failing that, how do you folks feel about me doing one once a week or every other week?

For example: Bands that made it big but you really can't stand - for me that would be AC/DC

                      vs. Bands that don't have a lot of name recognition but you really really like - for me that would be the band named Free:


Also thank you to Germaine for his political threads (since I avoid them) and his science thread (though I don't understand them)

And lastly, just a question, don't get upset, but why are so few of my authors posting anything? I mean outside of the handful that do, for which I am grateful. Too much thinking? Not enough time? Was a nice idea when you signed up but now not such a nice idea? 

Also, everyone once in a while I like to just do an OPEN THREAD. 

Consider this as such, talk about battle of the sexes, about politics, about science, about music, post a joke, a meme, a video, and snide comment about SNOWFLAKE.

Whatever floats your boat.

That Uplifting Tweet You Just Shared? A Russian Troll Sent It

Here’s what Russia’s 2020 disinformation operations look like, according to two experts on social media and propaganda. By   DARREN LINVILL   &   PATRICK WARREN Internet trolls don’t troll. Not the professionals at least. Professional trolls don’t go on social media to antagonize liberals or belittle conservatives. They are not narrow minded, drunk or angry. They don’t lack basic English language skills. They certainly aren’t  “somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds,”  as the president once put it. Your stereotypical trolls do exist on social media, but the amateurs aren’t a threat to Western democracy. Professional trolls, on the other hand, are the tip of the spear in the new digital, ideological battleground. To combat the threat they pose, we must first understand them — and take them seriously.

The Nightmare Scenario That Keeps Election Lawyers Up At Night -- And Could Hand Trump A Second Term

The Nightmare Scenario That Keeps Election Lawyers Up At Night -- And Could Hand Trump A Second Term   (Photo: Photos: Getty Images) Americans will almost certainly go to bed on Nov. 3 without knowing who won the presidential election. Since millions of people will vote by mail, constraints on time and resources will slow ballot counting into potentially a weeks-long process. Voting patterns suggest it’s likely that President  Donald Trump  could end Election Day in the lead in certain key states, only to be overtaken by Democratic opponent  Joe Biden  when more votes are tallied.  This could create a nightmare scenario during the three months stretching from Election Day to the Jan. 20 inauguration: a battle on the state and congressional level over who is the legitimate winner. This could include Congress reconvening on Jan. 6, presided over by Vice President  Mike Pence , with no consensus over its potential role in choosing the next president. This...

When Life Hands You Lemons

 It's like this folks: sometimes your mind goes blank. Happens more than usual with me of course. Take this forum for instance. I wanted to post something today and couldn't think of a topic. At least not a non-sexual one and we know sexual ones lately have been frowned upon.  Then along comes one of our regulars and complains about something. Well, they might not say it was a complaint, just an observation, but it was a complaint. A minor one. It has something to do about being able to make something out of nothing. Sort of like me this morning, how to make a thread out of an empty head? But they (notice I am using the correct pronoun, not saying he or she), by what they said got me thinking. What I thought was: Not sure if that is the actual saying, if I remember correctly, I remember the saying going something like this: Umm, no, I don't think the saying I am thinking of goes that way either, maybe ONE of you good folks can remind me how the saying goes. Either way, when...
