Something to make you laugh on Halloween (DEFINITELY not safe for work):

I spend a lot of time (way too much, probably) watching videos on the YouTube, and the amount of AI voice overs is maddening to me. In my previous career, I used to record voice overs for commercials, some narration, and other things, and I can spot an AI VO most of the time. The fake...

MAGA when Trump tears down an entire wing of the White House that's been there for generations: "I don't see the problem. It's just a renovation. It's not a big deal!" MAGA when some municipality decides to remove a statue of a Confederate general: "BUT MUH HERITAGE!!! WHY ARE YOU TRYING...

The YouTube algorithm has been feeding me police body cam videos since I started watching "sovereign citizen" videos, and while the perspective is a bit skewed, there is some pretty bad behavior by folks out there. The sovereign citizens are just bonkers ("I wasn't driving a motor vehicle, I...

Maybe it's just me, but after trying to paint the shooter as a "radical leftist" and "trans" at first, the FBI has been kinda silent about what their investigation has discovered about his actual motives. The right wing media has moved onto bringing up the furry stuff, but oddly...nothing about...

The sad part is that even if the Democrats take back the House and garner a slim majority in the Senate, and they do try to impeach Trump again, it will amount to nothing. Because even if they manage to get the votes in the House, the Senate Republicans will never, ever convict and remove Dear...

And now the party that threw hissy fits over "cancel culture" has managed to get Jimmy Kimmel cancelled. Why? It wasn't anything he said about Kirk. Or about his family. He suggested that the killer wasn't what Maga was making him out to be. He's been pulled off the air for not pushing the...

Something I've noticed in just scanning my usual internet pages... This story is being splashed on every major news site, right, left, and on every platform. People on the right screaming about political violence and such. I don't recall this level of coverage when the Speaker of the...

Um...last I heard, Trump was a notorious germaphobe and didn't like to shake hands.

Well Santa Monica is certainly overpriced as far as real estate goes, but if I had the means, a house or condo there would be nice, and with considerably less radiation than a spot on Mars. And while the traffic in the greater Los Angeles area is notoriously bad, getting to a home in Santa...

My new theory is that this meeting was a chance for Putin ("remember, sir, it's pronounced poo-tihn') to personally assess the mental decline of our president. He rode in a car with him, met with him for 3 hours, and if Grandpa was sundowning, probably came away from the summit very pleased...

Dog whistle seems to be working just fine, as well....

That's the one that says "thou shalt not take a half a billion dollar Qatari jet as a gift." Also known as the emoluments clause.

The unsung heroes of the self-driving car industry are the employees who have to clean the back seats of the robo-taxi after the drunks throw up and/or pass out and piss themselves on their way home from the bar. I felt terrible every time I had to say "yep, this one's gonna need a bio-clean."...
