  • Letting their hypocrisy flag fly free… NIH employees would rather quit than move…

    A bunch of higher level officials at the NIH were told they were being reassigned to the Indian Health Service. They could choose Oklahoma, Alaska, or New Mexico. Which meant that they had to leave the Beltway. IMO, that is awesome and needed. The federal government needs to be spread out to burst the echo… Continue reading

  • Rest in peace, Val Kilmer

    Sometimes life hands you an odd coincidence. I was watching Tombstone last night and despite the fact that I really needed to get some sleep, I watched to the very end because Kilmer as Doc Holliday was so compelling.

And employers are starting to realize that actual skillsets matter more than… Continue reading

  • Just Stop Oil–Finally reading the room

    Those asshats at Just Stop Oil are starting to think that throwing orange cornstarch on Stonehenge and blocking traffic might not be the way to go. Perhaps it’s because some of them are now in the slam. Perhaps it’s because Greenpeace just got a judgement against them to the tune of $667 million, which is… Continue reading

    Not sure why but this made me laugh my ass off. They’ve done takeoffs using bird, horses, dogs, and other people. Continue reading

  • World Athletics Steps Up

    The NCAA still ducks and covers and cowers. The President of World Athletics just announced that they will use cheek swabs to ensure that biological women are the only ones playing in women’s sports under their purview. More, he said that they had it challenged, fought off the challenge successfully, and he’s willing to take… Continue reading
