    It’s a music sequencer, pentatonic scale, and really fun, and you can share your creations.

      • I think it’ll be around forever, actually. This is phenomenal.

        I mean, I have a couple of nice DAW’s that are far, far more powerful, but none as accessible. No way.

        All the cool Google doodles are still available to play, even the Pac-Man™ one.

        Before you go to bed, do a Google search. After the results, tell it, in the search bar, “Do a barrel roll.” See what happens. They may be leftist tools, but they’re a fine bunch of nerds.

      This quote, Mary, is why the Alt-Right is the only viable position to take, if one wishes to preserve their civilization and culture. Conservatives have done nothing to conserve our culture, and they tell the same old lies that Liberals tell, and do nothing when in power to stop any encroachment on our culture or our values or our society.

      “Stop Breeding”, in other words, breeding is bad. If you’re white. You should be gay. Or trans. Or asexual. Or sexual without breeding in any of 57 ways, like Heinz A-1™.

      Hang your head in shame if you are “Cismale”. You dream of meeting a girl and marrying her? And then breeding, and passing on your culture to your offspring? That’s shameful.

      But not for Muslims or blacks or “Chicanos” (thanks Barack for bringing that word back).

      No Liberal or Conservative will castigate them for having kids and instilling their culture and values into those kids.

      When I say values, imagine a number line, with zero in the middle, negative to the left, positive to the right. That’s how number lines always worked, at least outside of the Far East. (They read in the other direction.)

      Islam is all the way to the left of that zero. Christianity, which built civilization, instead of destroying it, is quite a ways to the right of that zero.

      If you wish to grow your society, your culture, and your values, why in GOD’S NAME would you allow Islam into it? Why would you even promote it?

      Yes, England is done. We told them this ten years ago. Twenty. In all the forums. The last free Brit, please turn the lights off. We all said this!

      • Conservatives have done plenty to “protect the culture” and no one knew what the “alt-right” was until Clinton brought it up. As a Conservative, i voted for Donald Trump specifically to protect my American culture. And I do not tell the same lies that Liberals tell.

        Here’s the really, really big thing: Liberal and Democrat are for intents and purposes equivalent terms. Conservative and Republican are not equivalent terms.

        The only reason this Conservative has an “R” behind her name is because sundance said that we had better all get registered to vote in the Republican primary election if we wanted to help Trump. So I did. Having an “R” behind my name is NOT a point of pride for me and I would appreciate it if you would stop proclaiming that I and those like me just as bad as Mitch McConnell because we’re Conservatives. Republican =/= Conservative.

          I’ll offer my opinion.

          I think not only republican has been redefined but also conservative has been co-opted and redefined. I consider myself a conservative but also alt-right. I do not identify with the Never-Trumpers a club which is made up of long time conservatives. A group of men and women so blinded by their “aristocratic” image of themselves and their book sales, that they continue to spit on a man who has been saying what they claimed they wanted conservative republicans to say for years.

          Clinton is a criminal.

          Obama is an anti-American.

          America must stop funding the world and start putting itself first.

          Equal rights not special rights.

          TTP is a disaster.

          Illegal immigration is a danger to the State.

          Islam is a clear and present danger.

          The Paris Accord is a scheme to steal American money.

          The government should work for the people not the other way around.

          That is just off the top of my head but all Trump did was come in and say unapologetically these very things but at the same time call out the hypocrisy of the republicans and the conservatives for their own corruption and complicity in allowing our great nation to be turned into Soros’ whipping boy. 95% of (democrats, republicans, conservatives) are beholden to interest that go against the very fiber of our nations founding values.

          As to alt-right many people knew what it was before Clinton said it. Granted alt-right means different things to different people but the core premise is that conservatives, republicans, democratic, liberals have all become tentacles of the same monster and we need to have an alternative that has not sold out to the highest bidder.

          This is not to say that there is no difference between the parties we have Justice Gorsuch because of republicans and conservatives, but more importantly we have Justice Gorsuch because President Trump forced the hand of these people. My belief is that we only have some hope of conservative politicians acting and voting like traditional conservatives because President Trump and the American public will hold their feet to the fire.

    I’m watching a series on History Channel, ‘America’s War on Drugs’.It’s great, openly spills the beans on areas someone (can’t remember who) has been posting for years. The episode last night was a fave, it hit a real sore spot, how Clinton pushed thru the NAFTA bill that supercharged Mexican drug lords. The narrator is saying as truth something that had been hinted on a long time in the field – that Bill’s top drug officials had told him how the NAFTA would open the gates on illegal drugs from Mexico but he ordered them to keep their mouths shut as it was feared releasing that information from an official,source would jigger the bill’s passage. They’re sort of hinting Bill ordered them to stay quiet to ensure the creation of jobs in Mexico and the US would go forward and the drug issue could be taken care of later.
    Anyone else have another reason Bill would push Congress to flood the country with drugs?

    Local news had the Federal representative from Louisiana’s 2nd district on the news tonite. Seems he got into a heated reply with another Congressman who referred to NOLA’s crime rate as ‘3rd world’. Rep Richmond, of the Congressional Black Caucus, was about one or two adjective away from calling the other Congressman outside fo’ a good ass whoopin’, even brought the race card in with a ‘white privilege’ reference. Other folks watching the broadcast agreed that it was provocative and decidedly unprofessional but he wasn’t aiming his remarks at our demographic.
    I emailed him and reminded him that the crime rate in NOLA’s been in nation’s top five on and off for decades. Also mentioned that if he’s looking for 3rd world behaviors he need look no farther than his seat’s predecessor Federal Rep William ‘Dollar Bill’ Jefferson who, along with members of his immediate family were jailed for bribery while in office’ Sheesh, bribery by a real African 3rd world country no less.
    Also asked if all of the Vietnamese who came to NOLA in the 70s and 80s, dominated the honor rolls of NOLA schools and have gone off to prosper were guilty of ‘yellow privilege’.

    Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.

      It’s NatGeo, so, I decided to dive in, as well.

      At 230 feet, the limit of our dives, the diversity is greatest. We see gorgonian sea fans, shellfish, soft corals, sponges, small fishes—the colors and exuberance are reminiscent of tropical coral reefs. The fixed invertebrates in particular are enormous. Well adapted to a stable environment, these plantlike animals grow slowly but, it appears, without limit—unless something disturbs them. How, we can’t help wondering, will they respond as climate change warms their world?
