I fully support the Black Lives Matter protests springing up all over the country, but as someone who has seen this sort of indignant outrage flare up time and time again, only to sit back in disgust as public interest peters out while the news cycle moves on to some other manufactured crisis, all I […]
So hey, whatever happened to that second stimulus check that was supposed to be sent to every Umerkin? You know – the one that supposed to make up for the lousy twelve hundred bucks that a lot of people never got? The one that was supposed to actually go to working people instead of corporations? […]
In the late 50s and early 60s, popular music was far more stratified than it is now. The categories were rigid and there was very little crossover between genres. Indeed, as the new decade dawned (1960), each camp was growing more firmly entrenched. Before the Cultural Revolution of the mid ‘60s, Jazz, R&B, Blues, pop, […]
Here is something that really needs to be said…something no one in America is willing to say: Most cops are bad apples. It’s not the other way around. Year after year we get that same, lame excuse, “Well of course there are always a few bad apples, but yadda yadda ya…” Bullshit. They say ‘a […]
There is one thing I really hate: hypocrisy. Former president Barack Obama is a fine one to talk about protests. Obama recently spoke at an event sponsored by the My Brother’s Keeper Alliance, a program of the Obama Foundation, called Re-imagining Policing in the Wake of Continued Police Violence.

After the break, millions of Americans will be forced to work in unsafe conditions – in many cases against their will. The […]
They named the kid X Æ A-12 (it’s pronounced “Pretentious”). My question is: why does anyone give a shit about this asshat, anyway? Oh, right! He’s a billionaire. Sigh… I hate to break the news to everyone, but smug little Elon isn’t as brilliant as he claims to be. Why the global elite decided to […]
A story on the front page of CNN.com caught my eye today: SR-71 Blackbird: The Cold War spy plane that’s still the world’s fastest airplane The byline reads: During the Cold War, this plane could fly higher and faster than any other — and 55 years after its first flight, it still does. The article […]
There is no better example of just how housebroken and desperate many Americans are than the sight of all of those mass protests being held around the country by people demanding the right to die – literally – for the privilege of going back to work. The protesters say that the public safety measures restricting […]
