For several months now I have considered the Trump Presidency inevitable. Why? Because the election process is an improv stage show and Trump is a master at it. The Trump Formula revealed itself early.
The Trump Formula:
1: Say something outrageous and politically incorrect.
2: The Liberal Media responds: "ZOMG! Trump has really stepped in it this time! He's going down!
3: The truth trickles in: He knows exactly what he was talking about. He gains supporters.
4: Next week start at 1.
This formula replayed pretty much weekly ensured that Trump dominated the news cycle while spending but a pittance on his campaign. Even his opponents ended up talking about Trump. Add to this the growing number of Americans that were concluding that they would rather see another American civil war than another election, another politician that talked Conservative and then cuddled up to the Liberals, it has, and is, the perfect formula to dominate the stage.
Don't get me wrong, I do not consider the people who call Trump a monster to be completely wrong. The question I have is: Is he the monster America needs? Make no mistake! The world is being run by monsters. If you haven't figured it out by now, then perhaps the ISIS guy that attacked the Orlando Gay club should clue you in to how Islam feels about Gays specifically and Americans in general. If you are doing your homework, you already know that being caught gay is a capital crime in Islamic nations. While the Democrats continue to blame guns, Trump is putting the blame where it belongs, in the hands of the shooter and those who are like minded. Worse, ISIS is not the only monster in the world. Far from it. The world boils over with monsters. The Trillion dollar question is: Is Trump the Useful Monster the West needs?

The Credibility Gap of Environmentalists
I recall, back in the 1980's when I was a serious environmentalist wacko, a particularly good argument against stopping the use of oil. It was simply: "Humans didn't leave the stone age because they ran out of rocks. The left the stone age because metals were better." The implication was, of course, that we would leave the Oil Age because we found something better, not because we ran out of it. So, here we are in 2019. Have we found something better here 35 years later? Sort of.
We have 4 new technologies in the labs that are crawling towards market ready status that have the capacity to eliminate probably 90% of fossil fuel use. They are:

Am I the only one who ends up with a file named "file.jfif" when I download a .jpg picture here on DA? Did someone DA central decide it was a good Idea to annoy people?
What is a Historiacrat?
A Historiacrat is similar to a Technocrat, a Geniocrat, and a Noocrat. Specifically a Historiacrat is concerned about setting up an environment that naturally causes the desired activity and uses the historical record to determine what government policies are needed to create that environment. A Historiacrat believes every possible government policy possible has already been tried and at least most of those policies, and their results, have been recorded in writing somewhere. A Historiacrat also believes that human society everywhere and everywhen will respond virtually the same way to a given policy. Thus is is possible, with enough unbiased

Over 6 months ago I ran across this:
line art that came with an invitation to color it. I was feeling good that day and did exactly that. I pulled out all the stops because I was feeling good and ended up with this:
It sat in obscurity for some time before suddenly I got a bunch of requests for adding it to groups. Now suddenly I've got a flock of new llamas and it has been favorited several times. Maybe I should find another line art offering?
