    Crime Blotter: Georgia football player Devin Willock, staff member Chandler LeCroy killed in car crash

    ANY reasonable organization that has any kind of public face with these levels of crimes would remove these people from their organization. Not only does this kind of behavior make your organization look bad, but you generally get more of what you allow. See Florida under UM for a not-so-great...

    RFK, Jr.: Anti-vax HHS Secretary

    I nominate Kennedy and his immediate administration colleagues to go through the slaughter house and test each chicken to see if they have Bird Flu and clean up the dead ones. He's used to handling and disposing of dead things like bears in Central Park, so this is right up his alley. No blue...

    Trump's Policies Part 3

    Nice post with real information! There are two parts that appear to have been ignored by the President and his administration here. 1. "They should be given time to settle affairs and leave, if not guilty of a crime." It seems like few if any of these folks have actually been convicted in...

    He lovingly help return us to the point where money is the only thing that matters, and the only people who matter are the shareholders. And the plebs that work at the companies simply don't matter. "...he argued that a company has no social responsibility to the public or society; its only...

    GOP: The Pro-Pollution Party

    One of my favorite stories of the year, which is the perfect example of charging in to show that the other guys are dead wrong about climate change, then finding out it's likely you and your funders that are almost certainly wrong...

    The Republican War on Public Schools (vouchers, religion, graft, testing, etc.)

    Oklahoma is just going to create the next generation of mostly atheist adults. For one, in the USA we have thousands of different interpretations of, and over 900 hundred of different translations of the Bible. What makes the Oklahoma government think they will even remotely get the a reasonable...

    GOP: The Pro-Pollution Party

    I call this another, "some people just don't matter" policy. Which is the dramatically opposite of what public policy should be. We're going to see all kinds of new cancer hot spots (Love Canal anyone?) as well as further erosion of our waterways and soils. But, some things might get cheaper...

    RFK, Jr.: Anti-vax HHS Secretary

    My kid's last elementary breakfasts were cooked by a friend/chef, who made souffles and the like in the morning for the kids. I know some kids ate two breakfasts because they loved his souffles so much. I don't know the details on the lunches as my picky kid always took their lunch in, but I...

    RFK, Jr.: Anti-vax HHS Secretary

    They are attacking the science industry without engaging in the discussion of what science they want investigated over what has already been approved and funded. A MUCH better way is to let the current science grants and studies play out, then put up funding for what they would rather study. The...

    Trump, NATO, and the Future of the US/Europe Relationship

    I fault Senator McConnell for the erosion of our democracy more than any other person.

    BREAKING Oregon's Dan Lanning reaches new $11mm / year deal with Ducks

    They should have a cash sponsorship for each play and the team with the most money sponsored at the end of the game wins!

    Poll: Daylight Savings Time Tomorrow: Keep it? Dump it? change it?

    Apparently in 1973/74 we tried the only daylight savings time, and it was a monumental bust. Of course the iPhones back then weren't bright enough to light the road on the way to work in the mornings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_time_observation_in_the_United_States

    Trump's Policies Part 3

    As a comparison of things we should really be discussing and working hard to reduce in the US, around 925,000 people have been killed by automobiles vs. these 77 election fraud cases. We have had over 10,000 times the number of automobile deaths vs. election fraud. The amount of vitriol wasted...

    Sen. John Fetterman is the best Democratic candidate for 2028, IMHO.....

    We cannot eliminate the Filibuster, at least when there is not a split Congress. The minority party must have some way of being heard. If there is no Filibuster, then a 51% Congress can pass anything without as much as a reasonable discussion. I'm up for discussing a different kind of...

    Political Meme - Cartoon/Joke Thread...Part XXVIII

    Honestly, this affair should never have been brought to the public's attention until after he was no longer President. The whole mess had nothing to do with how he was running our country, or any policy. This was the worst of our politics brought into the public sphere to smear Clinton. If this...

    Ghislaine Maxwell Receives 20 Years for Aiding Epstein in Sex Trafficking

    One abused his power for sexual favors. The other is abusing nearly everyone for wealth and power, while tearing down norm after norm of our governance. Literally, nothing we want will be done any more unless the President wants it, which is not how our government should be run. It was bad...

    Ghislaine Maxwell Receives 20 Years for Aiding Epstein in Sex Trafficking

    I'm very sure it all depends on who could have that evidence. There are some in Trump's orbit that would bury evidence of nearly any disgusting, illegal, or heinous deed. After all, there has been rumors of a "P" tape for years, but the folks that might have that aren't the kind of folks to play...

    News Article: Bezos Gives Directive to WaPo Editorial Page

    There was a great Instagram post by a baby formula researcher showing how our new dependency AI is completely flawed, since there are so many nonsense "news" sites out there. She asked if there was High Fructose Corn Syrup in baby formula, and ChatGTP said yes, which is demonstrably false. But...
