Murder Most Foul [2020] was Bob Dylan’s best work in many years and it became a surprise No.1 hit! The song – more of a recitation with minimalist music – plays like an obituary to the last 70 years; a lament for the dream of America, “the shining city upon the hill.” Murder Most Foul […]
A former wrestling captain at THE Ohio State University recently told the Ohio House Civil Justice Committee that Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan asked him to help cover up a major sex abuse scandal that occurred while he was an Ohio State wrestling coach. Jordan has been accused of helping to cover up systemic abuse during […]
Perhaps the worst thing about this whole Trump impeachment sham isn’t the disgraceful, treasonous outcome. That was a foregone conclusion. The GOP is the cult of Trump now. They are all merely deputies in his moronic cult of personality. There are simply no more rational, critical thinking (or even sane) members of the Republican party […]
Every other day there’s a new mass gun slaughter in the USA and it’s finally become so commonplace that no one even bothers to bring it up. It doesn’t even matter how many are killed anymore. No new laws will be passed. Mass shootings have now been accepted as the norm in America – especially […]

Last weekend in West Palm Beach, Florida the “president” claimed in a bizarre speech that in addition to being an expert on everything else, he is also an authority on wind turbines. Even though he refers to them as ‘windmills’: “I’ve studied it better than anybody I know…I never understood wind. You know, I know […]
No Time to Die Another fucking James Bond movie. This franchise should have ended when Sean Connery quit…alas, amid a traumatic production process, the 25th Bond film finally arrives. Hey, the guy who played Freddie Mercury is the evil villain. Meh. Fast & Furious 9 Holy crap, what is this? The gearhead franchise keeps rolling […]
When I was growing up, everyone had to read George Orwell’s 1984 in High School, and we were constantly warned about the horrors of such a dystopian and terrifying future world. I guess it was okay to teach about the dangers of being passive in the face of totalitarianism back when teachers could relate Winston […]
