Social media is like all of the technical developments of the late 20th century: too much too fast. Humans don’t know how to wield the power that they seem to have accidentally stumbled upon. Not unlike how the development of the atomic bomb led to 50+ years of “cold war” semantics and now a continuing threat of

He’ll get to use AF1 again in 2024 for four more years.

The great answer when knowledge becomes dangerous to the masses has always been restraint or prohibition. And prohibition has a record that isn’t all too much to justify a sustainable model as a redress of societal behavior. Ironically, forbidden fruit has always been the downfall of man. You can read that in a

Check the box for the lobby that won this day:

It’s no mystery that as a result of multiple events and “movements” that have occurred in the past several years Americans have cemented their place as the biggest a$$holes on the entire planet. And we’re damn proud of it: We’re #1! Not only does our attitude effect those in the far reaches of civilization, it taints

I bet he’s writing it off on his taxes as a “business expense”.

Nice to see that Canada has its share of mouth-breathing anti vaxxers like ‘Murica. I wonder if they are all watching FOX News on loop in their cabs and on their phones. However, their healthcare system is good enough that when they do contract Covid they will actually be taken care of. Kind of a pity. At least in

Methamphetamine!

At this point banning people for misinformation regarding Covid isn’t the answer. It will only result in more senseless rhetorical arguments in the public sphere that lead nowhere and possibly embolden the anti-vax/conspiracy theorist crowd. Knowing that they are more likely to contract and spread the virus which may

Also consider that any SCOTUS nominee that Biden offers is more qualified to do the jobs of the aforementioned senators in this article. I’m just sayin.

Or you could have parent like mine who cared enough to put their foot down and refused sugary breakfast cereals. I was a hyperactive kid so I got ‘Colon Blow’ and ‘Rocks in your Socks’ cereal. All fiber, .0001% sugar content. When I got my first job I went out and bought Lucky Charms and realized it was disgusting. I

The Donald would have blamed it on woodland creatures who have nested in the trusses for years and then demanded that Pittsburgh aggressively trap all “vermin” in efforts to prevent further deterioration of infrastructure.

I’ve been struck by a moving vehicle a few times including on a bicycle, fortunately none resulted in a trip to the emergency room. While I don’t think that it is worth it to get a great shot by standing near the roadside in bad weather or poor lighting conditions, there’s also the factor that drivers don’t often

As I’ve mused for the last 20 years, innocence died on September 11, 2001. Growing up a child of the 80's and 90's I can’t get behind the fashion trends, tacky hair bands or many of the other staples that defined those decades. What does appeal to me is the relative lack of oppressiveness that my teens and 20's

Well, this is another “Darwin moment” in human existence. Let’s let it run its course and kill off the unworthy. Not to mention, we can’t even get 50% of the country to wear a mask, you think they will pay for medical grade supplies?!

I personally like The Ref starring Denis Leary and a pre-scandal Kevin Spacey. Good family conflict-based holiday story with a mischievous twist that makes Home Alone look like the child’s play it is.

And the Bull Connor award in 2021 goes to...

Pretty ironic that professional sports leagues deny the pressing issues of inequality between gender and race in this country while maintaining a “you can’t tell me what to do with my body stance” regarding the immunization shots. Then, when their athletes drink that Kool-Aid and behave irresponsibly (like 20 year old

Oh to be a white, conservative, Fox host. Tough life with all of the liberal corruption and immorality diverting pristine conservative/Christian values into the Socialist gutters of the world. “Think about the tannenbaums!” Never mind that homeless, mentally ill individuals must consider burning trees for warmth and

The worst part about this scenario is the human factor, we have a planet of 7B+ now. Around 5-6 of these rely on the power grid and internet for their daily livelihood. Removing this convenience basically will trigger a global riot as a result of the breakdown of the supply chain. We have seen how even the smallest
