Ma'am, we regret to inform you that his cause of death has been determined. At least, "Death by Floof" is a peaceful way to go.

Well, the partitioning of Poland in 1772 was even before the United States even existed as its own nation. And that little piece of Great Power Politics isn't even the oldest act of imperialism from Russia.

For whatever reason, the phrase "at the end of the day" just gets under my skin. I don't know why, but I instinctively just find it annoying.

Just because there are times for some general immaturity. . . .

"Art is how we decorate space, and music is how we decorate time."

Because I needed a little joy and chaos in my day, I decided you all did as well.

While what Facebook has done is certainly unethical, it doesn't violate the Free Speech clause of the U.S. constitution because it is neither a government-owned company or a public utility. The first amendment only applies to governmental censorship, not to the actions of private companies...

I have a slightly different take on the cease-fire. Firstly, there really isn’t as much Biden could have done legally that people want him to be able to do.

TIL that about roughly 40% of all the medical saline used in the United States was produced in the Carolinas and that Hurricane Helene shut that plant down. Estimates are that it's going to take around 6 to 8 months before they are back up to full production. In the meantime, my hospital has...

It not only appears that there really wasn't another attempt to assassinate Trump, and not only that the individual was actually a Trump supporter who simply just showed up armed (because, of course, a REAL patriot is always armed), but that the Mr. Miller is a sovereign citizen who had homemade...

Yes, this is pointless. Yes, it is silly. I do not care because it still makes me smile.

Well, obviously this is a fake. The pyramids came with all parts included and they are still standing after all these years. No way they're an IKEA build.
