GM Installing Google Starting 2021 — Motorists will soon be able to count on a Silicon Valley big brother to watch them as they drive. Google is putting its apps into the touch-screen displays of General Motors cars starting in 2021.
Drivers will be able to access Google Maps; the voice-activated assistant; Google Play app store, and a multimedia multimedia app directly from the dashboard.
Hey, did you see where Google got the big brother types, 800,000 more votes in 2018?
Looks like GM is one more thing to avoid. Have you switched to DuckDuckGo yet?

Strolling Manayunk And Pondering Pink Punch
By John W. Gilmore
On rainy days early Friday afternoon the streets of Manayunk are quiet. Despite the quiet, if you look around, you can see the merchants gearing up for the busy nightlife to come. Â Manayunk is a section of Philadelphia 15 minutes from Center City, King of Prussia, and the Mainline running along the Schuylkill River, with a strip full of many diverse shops, restaurants, spas and recreational facilities packed into a very small space.
One wonders how they survive. How do all of these restaurants compete with each other? I walk down the street looking at all of the stores, restaurants and businesses in wonder. I like to come here in the early afternoon when fewer things are open and the streets are not crowded and one can have a choice of quiet restaurants at which to dine. I notice that some businesses have closed, but only a few, leaving the storefront properties available right there on the main street. It is prime commercial real estate to be taken by someone who will add their commercial interests to a place booming with business and activities in the evening hours and weekends. The Manayunk Stroll the Street program initiated this past summer to introduce visitors to Manayunk has helped make the business district even more visible.
From Memorial Day to Labor Day every Thursday this summer one could shop, walk, and stroll through the neighborhood late into the evening.  The majority of the restaurants, bars and recreation facilities participated with free offerings.  From enjoying $6 spiked lemonades from Bourbon Blue, or Spritz Watermelon Margaritas, or Pink Punch at Craft Manayunk along with some spiced chicken skewers to Jakes Wine Bar  where you could enjoy Napa Pinot Noir or Pan Seared Figs with Gremzelax Crisp Prosciutto and Port wine reduction, you could enjoy your walk paying $6 for food and drink.  Most likely next summer the same type of adventure, due to its success, will await you.  Be prepared to stroll the streets and enjoy the nightlife.  There are always activities in this small section of Philadelphia not only in the summer and night, but all year round, (more than I can possibly list in this article) and their calendar is readily available online.
If you would like to explore some adventure off the beaten path right in your backyard and not in crowded downtown Center City, Manayunk is available for you all year round and close to many of the suburban cities.  You can find out more about this small, but popular, section of the city at www.manayunk.com. Just take a look at their events, or better yet, sign up for the newsletter or the online magazine so that you will be ready, at any time, to take advantage of the adventure that awaits.  Â
8chan Watkins Posobiec Interview — 8chan owner Jim Watkins, yesterday, Sept. 6, told OANN’s Jack Posobiec that his feared free speech site will soon be back and that he will continue his policy of not proactively censoring speech. It would be unAmerican to do otherwise he said.
8chan was forced off the web, Aug. 5, after the mass shootings two days earlier in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio. Big tech web security firm Cloudflare killed 8chan as a client after they accused it of inspiring the shootings by allowing the posting of a manifesto by El Paso killer Patrick Crusius.
Watkins has pointedly noted that Crusius had posted his screed on mainstream Instagram and that it was someone else who put it up on 8chan as others did on other boards.
Let’s note that it was Facebook that allowed the live streaming of the New Zealand mosque massacre, YouTube that allowed threats by Parkland killer Nikolas Cruz, and Twitter who let their platform be used by the Saudis to stifle dissent.
It’s the epitome of irony that 8chan is being attacked by the establishment as a “hate site”.
Watkins testified before the House Homeland Security Committee, Sept. 5, in a closed-door session. Watkins told Posobiec that he described his site, and explained that it wasn’t funded by any foreign governments. He said he never worked with a foreign intelligence agency. He noted that Russia has blocked access to 8chan.
Watkins said he cooperates with U.S. law enforcement agencies and that, in fact, Congress and the executive branch should seek input from tech companies to make it easier to do so.
Here is the interview.
OK, here’s a link to the full interview:

Forgive the nasty label they give Posobiec, a Norristown native. He is a outspoken Qanon skeptic and 8chan is the official medium of the Q movement.
Thunder rumbles and claps and peals and rolls. Thunderclaps are high-pitched, loud and last between .2 and 2 seconds. A peal means its changing in loudness and pitch. Rolling thunder is it irregularly changes in loudness and pitch. A rumble it means it’s not loud but very long. Some of us swear we heard a rumble for well over a minute.
Ever hear of the Durant-Dort Carriage Co.? It was America’s biggest manufacturer of horse-drawn vehicles in 1900. Don’t feel bad for it though. It adapted. It became General Motors.
There are 67 counties in Pennsylvania. Just in case you were wondering.
Media Township T J Maxx — The sign has been behind the counter at T. J. Maxx at the Promenade at Granite Run since it opened 11 months ago and thanks customers for “shopping media township t.j’s” much to the annoyance of residents of Middletown Township as that is where store is located.
The corporate honchos dismissed complaints about it .
There is no such place as Media Township. There is a Media Borough which is the county seat but that’s two miles from Granite Run which is in Middletown Township
If the sign merely said Media they might have gotten away with it since that is the store’s mailing address and the Media postal area includes many municipalities including much of Middletown.
Adding township, though, was a big no no.
T. J. Maxx bigwigs, change the sign now. Making a mistake is one thing, willful stupidity, however, never helps the bottom line.
Illegal Alien Murders Vs Rifles — Charlie Kirk makes a great point on Twitter to counter those seeking to restrict 2nd Amendment rights due to recent publicized shootings — as opposed to the far more frequent unpublicized shootings in places with strict gun control.
Charlie noted that there have been 403 deaths this year from being shot by rifles while ICE arrested over 2,000 illegal aliens with murder charges last year.
Why are Democrats more upset with rifles than illegals when illegals cause more deaths?
By the way, did you know that medical mistakes cause 250,000 deaths per year? Should we ban hospitals?
Our position is simple: Every sane, law abiding citizen should be encouraged to have a gun, including, no especially, an AR, and to vote. Every insane or criminally inclined person should be prevented from having a gun or voting.
Smoke that SJWs. Corrupt use of the ballot is just as destructive as corrupt use of the right to bear arms.
