At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

I just realised... Even after the orange menace is gone every movie set in Washington DC is gonna look really stupid. Like, weird gold everywhere, odd designs, really weird.

My current dun time is to have some very spicy eggs and when the fyarts come I sit on an annoying child's helix mattress, making sure I push it down, and let rip into the mattress. Then you hop up and the next arsehole who sits there will get a buttock bomb. I call it the depth charge.

Uber just announced it will lay off 10% of its workforce, or around 3,300 workers. Last year, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi made $35M — 360 times his median employee's pay — and announced a $20B stock buyback program to further enrich shareholders and himself. Textbook corporate greed.

My beautiful wife bought me a wonderful dinner and the only word to describe how I feel now is, I think, replete. I really hope that word is the correct one. She is my love and my life and she makes me feel satisfied in every way.

Don't forget they also take out like insurance policies on their staff and then work them to death. Pauper policies. I wish I was joking.

There it is. While you struggle to afford groceries, or find any that are edible, and pay thousands more every year in gas, rent, utilities, childcare, and healthcare, they are laughing all the way to the bank. 

Is it where they have put out life insurance policies on their sickest staff? That pay to them, not the familes btw.

Walmart is making headlines for receiving a $2.9 billion tariff refund. But there aren’t any headlines about Walmart’s biggest secret…

He has already done around 300,000 and he is running low on "illegals". Even with all the people who died under his covid government he still needs over 99 million of Americans to either die or leave. Is it your America still?

Don’t believe it? Read it for yourself. It’s been available for years to read.

Story time! I take a lot of meds. Pain meds. Blood pressure. Diabetus. Depression. PTSD. Anxiety. Lots of pills that make it hard to think. But I switched to a new pill caddy that organised my intake. Today is the second day of having the correct meds at the correct time. I feel pretty good.

Are you a teacher then? Or do you just work for the school district or something? I don't get it but I support schools and dogs.

When I wake up and think I've missed the bus to school but it's Saturday and I'm 60.

In my top ten horror movies of all time. Heck, even the remake was good.

#onthisday in 1985, ‘Fright Night’ was released in the US. In the film, a teenager believes that his new neighbour is a vampire and turns to an actor in a TV show for help to deal with the undead. How do you rate it? #frightnight

*again. Wrong side of history again.

The International Olympic Committee is lifting the suspension of Russian boxers while Russia is bombing the old boxing center in Kherson. The IOC is on the wrong side of history.

The Pentagon has retroactively lowered the U.S. death toll in Trump's Iran War, claiming the four soldiers killed last weekend don't count because Trump declared a ceasefire in April. Trump's ego is so colossal he can't admit his own warmongering is getting Americans killed. Shameful.
