I gave it up for Lent. Lent came and went. I debated with myself whether to return.  Sugar Mountain  and his bots are a scrofulous crew, but FB's a  good place to offload interesting links and political animadversions so as not to clutter MavPhil.  It also brings people to my Substack articles.  If you can keep your FB time down to 30-60 minutes per day, it probably won't do too much damage to your mind and soul. There's some good stuff there. It is not all kitty kat pix and what-I-had-for-dinner.  By the way, my use of 'stuff' always carries  a slightly pejorative connotation.

A sample. Do you remember 'meathead' from All in the Family?

I hope I'm wrong, but things look dire. I'm on a raging roll over at Facebook.  I am being threatened with censure.

For political linkage and 'rantage' see my Facebook page. The Kavanaugh hearings galvanized me. I no longer see any reason to hold back or be polite. It is time for all good men and women to come to aid of the Republic. No 'liberals' need apply.

. . . a discussion rages over whether women should be denied the right to vote.  I defend universal suffrage against certain alt-Right reactionaries. You may send me a 'Friend' request but only if you are broadly conservative or libertarian. No 'progressives' need apply. Life is too short to be wasted on discussions with the terminally benighted and willfully self-enstupidated.  Such destructive fools need either therapy or defeat. Let's hope we can achieve the latter by political as opposed to extrapolitical means.

I am on a serious roll over at Facebook. Four new entries today so far. And I'm snagging some good comments. If your outlook is broadly conservative, feel free to send me a 'friend' request.
