I’m sure that everyone has heard about a bunch of people on Reddit turning the tables on large short selling investors. A reasonably good summary of it is an article on CNN Business titled “The real shock of the GameStop mania was that it didn’t happen sooner“. Or as Jon Stewart says — in his […]
Bernie Sanders has been getting quite a bit of attention just for sitting in his chair during the inauguration, wearing his famous coat and a big pair of mittens. I’m not sure how many memes have been created from that, putting Bernie sitting somewhere else. But this is the one that made me laugh the […]
I absolutely loved the inauguration. Amanda Gorman especially stole my heart. Yo-Yo Ma melted my soul. Can you identify everyone in this comic?
Donald Trump will soon be gone, but not forgotten. Because the Museum of London has added the Trump Baby Blimp to its collection. The blimp will be added to the museum’s protest collection, which includes items from the women’s suffrage movement and anti-war protests. The blimp greeted Trump when he visited London in 2018.
Alabama’s new GOP Senator Tommy Tuberville is not the sharpest knife in the drawer. As Groucho Marx said in Duck Soup, “He may look like an idiot and talk like an idiot but don’t let that fool you. He really is an idiot.” According to the Alabama site AL.com: As a candidate, Tommy Tuberville was […]
Elon Musk tweeted this earlier, but I’m not totally sure if it is serious or meant to be a joke! I think you could probably make a case that without Facebook, none of this would have happened.
On Sunday I posted the video from former California governor (and movie Terminator) Arnold Schwartenegger. This video has totally gone viral. The tweet has more than 1.1 million likes, which is better than Trump has ever done. Actually, that’s not entirely true. Trump did have one tweet that did better, with 1.9 million likes. However, […]
This is the most powerful speech I have heard about the events at the Capitol, from Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The NY Times ran an opinion piece titled “Can Donald Trump Survive Without Twitter?” I think the question that may be even more important is “Can the Media survive without Donald Trump?” Trump’s constant sowing of division and outrage has been a bonanza for media. Not just “are they able to survive”, but also “are […]
Today, Twitter permanently suspended President Trump from its service “due to the risk of further incitement for violence,” effectively cutting him off from his favorite megaphone for reaching his supporters. I say, it is about time! And to anyone complaining that this is against the First Amendment, the Bill of Rights does not say that […]
Stephen Colbert has never been so angry, and rightly so. Watch this.
Just a few minutes ago, Donald Trump went back to stoking violence (luckily, Twitter removed it and locked his account). Trump has also vowed that he will not leave the White House when his term is constitutionally over. He needs to go. He should be stripped of the presidency. Now. Not in two weeks. Now. […]
I love this comic by Clay Bennett. Stacey Abrams is a national hero! She was able to flip Georgia’s electoral votes for Biden, just by getting democrats out to vote, and with any luck she will do the same thing for the senate.
Well, today is the election in Georgia. Is everyone holding their breath like I am? Please please turn this country around before things get even worse! I can only hope that Trump’s base is starting to figure out that his behavior after the election is that of a spoiled brat baby, a con-man, and a […]
The number one thing that Joe Biden can do is to put an end to the pandemic. This will mean not just getting the vaccine out there and get enough Americans inoculated to establish herd immunity, but also a comprehensive PR campaign to change attitudes — and even more importantly, behaviors — toward the pandemic.
