  • And Chicago kisses Hollywood dollars goodbye

    “FX and Sony have reportedly halted production of their Justified spinoff series in Chicago following a terrifying incident in which two cars engaged in a gun fight broke through barricades surrounding the set on Wednesday night.” This is not surprising to anyone who has been following the news from Chicago, which has turned into someplace… Continue reading

  • They're trying to hurry along the inevitable

     So Brandon tested positive for, and is symptomatic with the Wuflu (or he has a cold since the symptoms are the same and depending on the test, would show positive for covid regardless).

  • Noah Webster weeps

     The Merriam-Webster Dictionary, which at this point is only one step from the Urban Dictionary, has changed the definition of female to include “having a gender identity that is the opposite of male”.

  • Hubris wrapped in a scarf

     So it turns out that, although Fauxi was the face of the pandemic, Dr. Birx (the scarf lady), a member of Trump’s covid response team was actually pulling the strings, by her own admission. She describes re-writing guidance, to hiding or minimizing data, and to pushing her meme, which included masking, social distancing and limiting,… Continue reading

  • Aaannnd the other 4.5% are men too

    Official data from NYC indicates that 95.5% of monkeypox cases are found in men.  But the devil is in the details.  Because the report also states that no women have gotten it.   So the extra 4.5%: Health officials attributed the remaining to TGNCNB (Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming Non-Binary) (7 cases), and Unknown (8 cases). I’ll translate: … Continue reading
