Here’s Cursive, by Mandy, Indiana, from the upcoming album “URGH” coming out on 6 February 2026.

Don’t look now (seriously don’t), but X and its cousin Grok have a CSAM (child sexual abuse material) problem. And nobody is doing anything about it because nobody cares. And it has been coming (and happening) for awhile. Hell, Grok has been gross since at least last August. It’s been going on for weeks (since at least January 2, probably earlier)! Thousands of users are asking Grok to make them pictures of all sorts of women and girls in all kinds of variations of disgusting. I’d like to think that if any application or service introduced a...

Here’s a song so we can get the depressing January 6 post off the top of the front page but also the song rules. So: win, win.

Five years ago, the President of the United States instigated a violent insurrection with the aim of retaining power despite losing the presidential election. Somehow, no action was taken about this, and he is once again the President of the United States. January 6, 2021, is a date that should live in infamy, but sadly probably will not. Because everybody just moved on, forgot about it, and lived like it had never happened. Nearly an entire political party, deeply and unhealthily under the thumb of that president, pretended as if it was just a minor incident, no...

What the fuck? No, seriously. What the fuck. Did Donald Trump actually order an assault on Venezuela and the kidnapping of its leader? Is this a dream? Are we dead and this is hell? Did he really fucking say that the U.S. would run Venezuela now? Forty people may have died in the assault? Did he order and manage the assault and kidnapping from fucking Mar-A-Lago? Not the White House? Did they do it while on camera and reading fucking Twitter? What did Grok have to say about it? That it was a great idea or that...
Continue reading...Predictions, 2026
Wow still not used to typing “2026” even this late into the year. Anyways, everybody else is doing predictions, why not us? Let’s get started. The economy will finally break down Trump does seem to have the ability to escape gravity time and time again, but can number go up forever, despite him doing everything in his power to make number go down? The only thing anybody cares about is rising prices, and all he has done has been to make prices go further up. Despite what he says, consumers pay tariffs. Overwhelming immigration raids make construction...

What a year it has been, huh? Well, lots of blogs are pumping out their best posts of the year, and, well, we didn’t pump out that many posts, so here’s just a general list of what we published this year. Wrote a post about the TikTok ban. Reminder: It’s still theoretically banned. lol. Celebrated the new Turnstile album. You should listen to it — it’s super good. We are now just so surrounded by ads. So of course we need more ads. I got mad. A post about how judges are going to be on the...

Ok, the chanukiah has burned out, the middle school band smashed Hot Cross Buns in the winter solstice concert, and you’ve listened to Fairytale of New York. With the end properly near, let me add to Favorites, 2025. Podcast When a lawyer wins a massive personal injury verdict, they owe the outmost thanks to the psychopath defendant that refused to settle for a lesser amount. Something similar could be said for Michael Hobbes and Peter Shamshiri who collaborate on If Books Could Kill. They throw (lots of) shade at bad books, mostly self help “airport” books, but...
Continue reading...Christmas stories
The problem with composing a Christmas post is thinking of anything even remotely interesting to say. The themes have been tropes for centuries now: family, generosity, joy, the birth of a little bugger in Bethlehem (who is also from Nazareth?) who would go on to change the fate of the world. What the hell is interesting about yet another post about the Reason for the Season. What more could possibly be said? I’m sure pastors/preachers/ministers/priests have this problem every year. Oh good, the Christmas Sermon: one of the two big days for churches where you may get...

On this day twenty years ago, December 17, 2005, YouTube was born. By which I mean the SNL Digital Short “Lazy Sunday” was aired during an episode featuring guest host Jack Black and musical guest Neil Young. Youtube was nothing before this dropped, just one among many burgeoning video sharing sites, and immediately after became one of the most popular sites on the internet, despite NBC doing everything they could to take the video down. YouTube just a couple of years later would sell itself to Google for a then-massive $1.65 billion. Not bad for a platform...
