    Question on the Press and Privacy

    Story This seems wrong to me. I get it when a politician resigns "to spend more time with family." Politicians are basically self-employed, and it's up to the press to dig up the reasons. And I get why the average Joan shouldn't have the reasons for her firing disclosed publicly. Even if...

    Protecting the Innocence of Children

    This should be fun. The wacko right has decided that the International Communist Chinese Trans Mafia is out to traumatize and victimize decent, honest, Canadian kids who would grow up to be decent, honest, Gawd-fearin' Canadian Conservatives except that their lives were derailed into lust and...

    The Meeja Is Improving

    Tucker Carlson of Fox and Don Lemon of CNN have both been fired. Nice balance there.

    Dumb Ideas

    A place to post dumb ideas that come to our attention.* My first submission: ISIS brides. * Yes, I know our rocket-science community will immediately shout "Voting for True Dope!" and spend days chortling over their spoon-like wit.

    Hypocritical Libs

    Interesting story. Turns out that Abbott's political stunt, choreographed with maximum cruelty, to the delight of American and Canadian conservatives, sparked a coordinated humanitarian effort on the part of the hypocritical libs. . . Story

    Ignore Dat Ass?

    Ski said something I found to be a fresh breath of ordinary wisdom. . . Makes sense to me. If a person presents publicly as a male in dress, hairstyle, and all those identifying social cues, I'll call that person by masculine pronouns unless and until corrected by somebody who knows what...

    Well done, Brits

    The pub’s story ended, seemingly, in June 2021 when residents learned that the Punch Bowl Inn had been demolished. Outrage followed. The pub was a listed building, a designation in the United Kingdom that protects structures of historical significance. The Ribble Valley borough council, which...

    We Need More Men in High Office

    Not more males, more men. Jimmy tangled with, and beat, a wildcatting nuclear reactor. George H.W. drove a burning torpedo bomber through its attack run and took out his target before bailing out. Compare to what we've had since.

    Floriduh

    Article Long story short. . . Floriduh's new abortion law is requiring a woman to carry to term a darling widdle bee-bee who has no kidneys, won't be able to breathe, and will die 20 minutes to two hours after being born. I am sure that all them Gawd-fearin' conservatives out there are...

    Super Bowl

    They're starting Super Bowl "coverage" 7 1/2 hours before kickoff. I blame Canada.

    Clergy sex abuse suits could bankrupt San Diego diocese

    SAN DIEGO (AP) — The Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego said Friday it may declare bankruptcy in the coming months as it faces “staggering” legal costs in dealing with some 400 lawsuits alleging priests and others sexually abused children. In a letter that was expected to be shared with...

    Dope

    No, the correct answer is not "Here!" Accurate, no doubt, but not what I'm looking for. Now that we're boldly going where just about everybody has gone before, how's Canada's experience with legal marijuana going? Any major problems? By "major," I mean "comparable with the problem of locking...

    Oops, I Did It Again. . .

    In Prince Georges County, Maryland, a high-school teacher has been cleared of criminal charges for "inadvertently" sending explicit photos to students. The sex of the teacher was not specified, but if the teacher hasn't been fired, I think student comments and blatant "checking him/her out"...
