Funny thing about people who get Google to blur their houses on Street View: Most are ignorant that Apple maps has the same views, unblurred.

With the U.S. team eliminated, can we all return to ignoring this sport?

Explain why Costco has three slots to separate waste on the top but there's nothing separating the items below. I don't get it.

I'm hearing the holdup in negotiations with Iran is Trump's insistence that they refer to him, too, as "Supreme Leader" for a period of six months.

Beef Season 1: Awesome. Beef Season 2: Why did they bother?

Maybe the Nobel committee could get together today and offer Orange Caligula a Special Certificate of Merit if he agrees not to wipe a civilization off the face of the Earth.

My small protest this pst weekend: In response to the opening of Melania, I watched The Apprentice film. It's very good and widely available on Roku and other streaming services.

Going to be fascinating to watch how the regime moves forward after today's killing. The videos make clear the ICE shooters were in the wrong. But the regime is so invested in promoting the idea they're infallible, and instantly blessed the shooting as justified. Do they just keep lying?

LeBron, an active pro athlete, on DraftKings payroll. Does anybody think this is a good idea?

www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/b... When I read articles about drug pricing, I need a Tylenol.

Some days I scroll down my BlueSky feed and I get sort of depressed.

Folks better prepare for a bunch of wildly irrational acts by orange Caligula, even for him, on Friday when he doesn't get the Nobel Peace Prize.

I would have liked to have seen "Only Murders in the Building" to the Season 5 conclusion, but more important to cancel Hulu now after Disney/ABC's shameful act of capitulation.

As usual, people on this site are so unfair to our president. He left the meeting today without having given up any U.S. territory, not even Alaska! Even Churchill would be ready to award him the Nobel.

Late to this (thanks NYT), but Larry Ellison's philanthropic interests are "delivering practical solutions to the problems of hunger, healthcare and climate change." Yet he supports the orange Caligula, who undermines all three goals every day in the most destructive possible ways. I don't get it.

JB Pritzker has to become President, just so Oliver Platt can play him in the movie (or at least on SNL).

PCA, Holy shit.

Just saw a commercial for Swissair, and there's small text at the bottom of the screen noting the airline is a Star Alliance member. But I thought they were supposed to be neutral.

So White Lotus went with the Darth Vader story. Kind of expected something new.

Republicans were conditioned for each stock market plunge, and every other indignity orange Caligula throws their way, when they were hazed to join their fraternities, a la Kevin Bacon in "Animal House": "Thank you, sir. May I have another?"

NYT now hedging on whether 22nd Amendment still in effect: 2030 is "a year after Donald J. Trump is no longer expected to be president." www.nytimes.com/2025/03/26/w...

The thing about the SNL50 show is how have they gotten away with not being all that funny for the last 40 years?

New Executive Order signed today: Effective immediately, the apostrophe shall be moved to the right of the t and President's Day shall hereinafter honor me.

Best New Artist category was insane.

Why does my Toyota have a better collision avoidance system than an Army helicopter?

Buckle up, folks. It's only Day 1.

(revised version) Little inauguration in D.C. on January 20th. Don't be there, won't be very wild!

The dilemma for young people contemplating dodging the draft by fleeing to Canada to avoid storming the beaches of Greenland is that Nova Scotia may be next.

Peacock just sent a peppy "year in review" email with streaming stats on number of hours of programming I watched. Are people so inured to being surveilled now that businesses believe it's wise to advertise it to customers?

Why did "Juror #2" get good reviews? The premise is interesting, for a moment. But there's just no way to ignore all the implausibities.

Sure hope Trump and House GOP don't scroll over Google Doodle today and discover it says "Seasonal Holidays"

I wish the Bluesky and Twitter, er, X icons on my tablet didn't have the same color scheme. I keep mistakenly tapping the wrong one.

3:18 a.m. Smoke alarm battery dies. Like clockwork.
