Belle of the ball: British media reports ‘woman waving her penis’ in public…

The British media has officially outdone itself, in the worst way possible. In a headline that reads like something straight outta The Onion, reporters actually declared, “A woman exposed herself in a park.” And then, in all “seriousness,” they go on to explain that this “woman” whipped out her penis in front of children and wiggled it around.

We wish we were joking…

Everyone on planet Earth should know that women don’t have penises, except, apparently, British journalists. These poor wankers are so enslaved to woke gender nonsense that they’ll happily torch basic biology, reality, and the safety of children just to keep a child predator’s pronouns and gender illness intact.

These people aren’t journalists. They’re progressive clowns.

And let’s be clear. This wasn’t some weird drag queen singing in a gay nightclub. A child was literally targeted by this madman. A little girl on the monkey bars looked over and saw a man… yes, we said a man… waving his ding-dong around. But the media’s number one priority isn’t the child. It’s to the trans movement.

This is the same type of sickness we saw here when Jake Tapper twisted himself into a pretzel to avoid “misgendering” the trans killer who shot up a Catholic church and murdered two children. Again, less concern for the kids, more concern for the trans ideology.

The trans movement is on a collision course with journalism. If it keeps going like this, it’ll devour the profession entirely. And the sooner, the better.

By the way, this is what British media calls a “woman.”

Remembering 9-11: “That Feeling That We Were Really All One People”

I was working with our European divisions (every Country as it was IBM) and on 9/12 they were all “We are Americans too”.

By the next day, they were back to their favorite sport, trashing America. Everyone shoots for number one, and since Bush was a republican, the hate came back quickly and with even stronger wishes for the USA to be harmed.

Let’s not forget that I’m married to a European. Her family didn’t think that we should protect our country because of the violence it would cause. They stopped being my in-laws that day and became my wife’s family. I had mentioned that this was the biggest attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor.

An analyst I was forced to deal with was saying how the US didn’t have to fight 2 fronts in WWII. I calmly reminded him that we had the Japanese going on at the same time. Yes, he was an asshole and an ignorant one at that.

I don’t even go to see them anymore because the liberal press in Europe can out liberal the US liberal press. They believe every word and the hate they have for Trump is only matched by Keith Olberman and Rosie O’Donnell.

Anyway……

Next year will be the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City. Most folks who were adults at that time remember it like it was yesterday.

Many of us have also had years when we’ve felt like distancing ourselves from the anniversary commemorations. Even for those not directly impacted, memories of that day—and the days that followed—still bring back traces of a trauma we’d never felt before. A feeling of insecurity we’d never experienced. Perhaps actor Tony Danza summed it up best when he said “I don’t like revisiting how I felt.”

In some ways the trauma seems to deepen with time, as new layers of grief emerge–like memories of loved ones who shared those moments but are now gone.

This year I decided to crack open the door and look back, if only for a little while.

In doing so, I came across some videos I’d never seen before–interviews with celebrities of that time period discussing where they were on 9-11.

Ten years after the attacks, producer and director David P. Levin released his documentary “When Pop Culture Saved America: A 9-11 Story.” Originally produced for A&E Networks, it explored how entertainment, comedy, and music helped Americans cope and rebuild in the months that followed. Levin spoke with numerous celebrities for the documentary, later posting extended interviews on his “Pop Goes the Culture” YouTube channel.

They didn’t remember. The people I dealt with were happy when we got attacked every time since and were mad when we protected ourselves.

European Self Hatred Far Greater Than US Version, A Virtual Powder Keg

Americans who don’t spend time in Europe might not fully appreciate what a powder keg the Old World has become.  

However bad social relations in the United States now are, they are at least an order of magnitude worse on the other side of the Atlantic.  European self-hatred is dissolving traditional cultural bonds.  Mass immigration is compounding age-old rivalries.  

Europe is one spark away from exploding.

Europe is a perennial battlefield.  Many of our ancestors, after all, left the old country to escape religious, economic, and cultural conflicts that had endured for centuries.  Those historic grievances — always simmering in times of peace before boiling over into outright violence — are passed from one generation to the next.  Modern European nations are the product of two thousand years of shifting borders and alliances, and native Europeans trace their family lineages back to regional tribes whose ancient territories do not fit neatly within the politically drawn maps of today.

If you think geographical accents in America make it tricky for a Mississippian or Minnesotan to communicate effectively with an English-speaker from the Bronx, consider that Europe is home to nearly three hundred native tongues.  Switzerland has four national languages — including Romansch, which derives from the spoken Latin of the Roman Empire.  The cornucopia of indigenous languages, dialects, vocabularies, and accents makes it possible for local residents of small towns to recognize “outsiders” immediately.  Even more impressively, they can usually tell — just by listening — which towns a stranger’s grandparents once called home.

Two world wars — both ignited in Europe and responsible for immense European destruction — propelled a mid-twentieth-century political movement calling for the eradication of national borders.  The European intelligentsia who became the founding members of the continent’s fledgling transnational bureaucracy blamed national pride for Europe’s carnage and effectively turned “nationalism” into a dirty word.  

Oddly, this was also a time when crumbling empires, such as France and the United Kingdom, were at least tepidly supporting the national independence of former colonies.  Likewise, it was the beginning of a half-century U.S.-led campaign to encourage national revolutions in European countries stuck behind the Soviet Union’s Iron Curtain.  So Western power brokers framed nationalism as a kind of intolerable ethos on par with Mussolini’s fascism and Hitler’s national socialism while encouraging former nations or proto-nations in Central Europe, Africa, and Asia to break away from the respective empires that controlled them.  While Western leaders pushed for the integration of distinct European nations into a single “Union,” they also promoted national independence movements under the rationale that all humans possess a natural right to self-determination.

In the eighty years since the project for European integration began in earnest, those latent contradictions have transformed Europe into a tinderbox with even greater potential energy for self-destruction than existed before WWI and II.  While the bureaucratic ruling class has actively repressed the historic identities of native Europeans, it has flooded the continent with foreigners who are encouraged to retain their own cultural identities.  In this way, a Hungarian or Pole or Dane who celebrates his country’s unique heritage is denounced as a “far-right nationalist,” while a Frenchman who insists that African and Middle Eastern immigrants assimilate to the European way of life is denounced as a “racist” and “bigot.”

It Was A Sham The Whole Time: NY Times, Ben Casselman Hardest Hit: BLS Overestimated Biden-Era Jobs by 911,000

I haven’t trusted the NY Times since I’ve been alive. As for Biden, history will judge him, but it’s not looking good for him. He’s competing with Woodrow Wilson (racist), Jimmy Carter (incompetent), Obama (Ditherer and America hater)

For all of New York Times chief economics correspondent Ben Casselman’s fussbudgeting over President Donald Trump supposedly compromising the reliability of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a new report pointing to gross BLS ineptitude just made him look like a complete idiot.

The Bidenomics simp Casselman was forced to report that the BLS overestimated jobs growth during the Biden era — AGAIN — this time by nearly 1 million (-911,000) in the 12-month period ending March 2025, the largest revision on record. Casselman conceded that it was the “latest sign that the labor market, until recently a bright spot in the economy, may be weaker than it initially appeared.”

Remember: this scandalously politicized Fake News came out during the election season.

What makes this worse is that Casselman is the same person who co-wrote an embellished pre-election Day report slobbering all over Biden jobs market October 5, 2024:“The Job Market Is Chugging Along, Completing a Solid Economic Picture.” Like the cherry on top of this luscious-looking pile of crow, Casselman praised how “And the incoming evidence points to a clear conclusion: The economy is robust … In fact, the [September BLS] report reinforced that by many measures, the job market is as healthy as it has ever been.”

To My Troll Tim O’Reilly: Get the Facts Straight, The Independent, Island Nations Are Growing, Not “Sinking Into the Sea”

I caught grief online by this jerk by saying that the seas aren’t rising and that his Global Warming religion was a lie. He was a pompous dick about it. I took grief from his pals, the now defunct Greenmonk and other like Analyst groups.

Fortunately, the truth wins out. He’s still a book publisher or whatever he does, but is still a troll. The tide comes in twice a day, that’s the only rising it’s done in a long time

The Independent posted an article claiming multiple small island nations are sinking into the sea, threatening the cease existing as nations, leaving their populations adrift. Data shows this is simply false. Amid modest sea level rise, the island nations that The Independent discusses have increased in size, population, and prosperity amid modest climate change. No real data shows that the oceans are about to swamp these countries.

“Small island nations such as Tuvalu, Kiribati, the Maldives and Marshall Islands are particularly vulnerable to climate change,” claims The Independent in its story, “These countries are sinking into the sea. What happens when they disappear forever?” “Rising seas, stronger storms, freshwater shortages and damaged infrastructure all threaten their ability to support life.

“Some islands even face the grim possibility of being abandoned or sinking beneath the ocean,” continues The Independent. “This raises an unprecedented legal question: can these small island nations still be considered states if their land disappears?”

While questions of international law with regard to the status of nations and their peoples should a country cease to exist are beyond the ken of Climate Realism, data indicates that the populations of these nations need not fear for their islands’ continued existence or, as result, the dissolution of their nation and national identity.

More Green Dildo’s On The Field For MNF

When I was growing up, the joke was big black dildo. We made endless jokes about size, girth, comparability to the real thing, and so forth. But seriously, Green? What, is there some Martian with a unit that would put the brothers to shame, or is the stud of the ‘hood?

Now, the WNBA lost it’s star attraction and they offer the world and other sports leagues green dildo’s. They are a joke without Caitlin. The mascot of the WNBA is a gree didldo, but then a lot of them are lesbians anyway so it’s not all that unfamiliar.


The Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears squared off in the first “Monday Night Football” of the season for ESPN, with the former pulling off an exciting 27-24 comeback victory. But that’s not what I’m here to talk about. (RELATED: Multiple NFL Games Disrupted By Bright Green Dildos)

During the game, a sex toy was thrown on the field to continue the craze that originated in the WNBA, which resulted in a security guard having to scoop it up so it didn’t interrupt things. And here’s what made the scene even more hilarious: After removing the dildo, the guard received a loud ovation from fans.

The dildo, which was bright green like all of the other sex toy incidents, was thrown onto a Soldier Field end zone from the stands. Fortunately, there was no delay in the game thanks to the security guard.

Karma’s A Bitch Sometimes

Man Who Helped Spark ‘Hands Up Don’t Shoot’ Hoax Shot And Killed

Dorian Johnson, whose account of Michael Brown’s 2014 death fueled the “hands up, don’t shoot” movement and was later contradicted by federal investigators, died in a shooting Sunday, police said.

The 33-year-old was killed when someone shot him around 8:30 a.m. at a Ferguson, Missouri, apartment building less than a mile from where Brown died eleven years ago, Ferguson Police spokesperson Patricia Washington confirmed, CNN reported. Police detained one person but released them without filing charges, St. Louis County prosecuting attorney Melissa Price Smith said.

“This appears to be a domestic incident involving a claim of self-defense,” Smith continued, adding that the case remains an active investigation.

Ferguson police clarified that no officers shot Johnson. “There had been earlier rumors that this was an officer-involved shooting however that information is incorrect. No officers, Ferguson or otherwise, were involved in this incident other than to begin our investigation,” the Ferguson Police Department (FPD) stated in a post.

Appalachian Queer Film Festival

At this point, you would have to move to Appalachia to avoid having LGBTism rubbed in your face. No wait; that might not be far enough:

Since 2014, the annual Appalachian Queer Film Fest has brought attention and recognition to Queer filmmakers. Starting as an initiative to bring queer film and culture into the Appalachian region, the event has brought inspiration and recognition to queer art for over a decade.

This year’s fest will occur in Shepherdstown, West Virginia , featuring a movie that glorifies transsexual ACLU lawyer Chase Strangio:

“HEIGHTENED SCRUTINY” displays the decisive legal battle, (United States v. Skrmetti), where Chase Strangio worked to overturn the ban on gender-affirming care for trans youth in Tennessee.

That is, she worked to inflict grotesque sex change procedures on innocent children. Readers previously encountered Miss Strangio when she call for subjecting children as young as 2 years to such horrors and when she updated the Newspeak Dictionary by abnormalizing normal people with the term nontransgender.

Politicized perversion has been injected into every nook and cranny of the country. Escape is no longer an option; we are left to push back.

WW3? French Hospitals Told To Prepare For A “Major Military Engagement” Within Six Months, Hopefully First War Win Since The Revolution

To be fair, They fought themselves in the French Revolution so it’s really a tie.

French hospitals have been advised to prepare for a large scale war by next year, in a government letter that was leaked to the media.

There are reports that the French Ministry of Health has informed hospitals to prepare for a “major [military] engagement” by March of 2026.

The letter allegedly states that between 10,000 to 50,000 people are to be expected in hospitals.

The leaked letter also reportedly explains that mass casualties are to be expected not just from its own forces, but wounded soldiers from across Europe, and that France would be acting as a ‘rear base’.

It outlines how French hospitals would need to prepare for up to 50 THOUSAND beds allocated to wounded civilians and military personnel EVERY MONTH.

The Ministry of Health also noted that it is considering the creation of medical centers near ports and airports.

“In the current international context, it is necessary to anticipate the modalities of health support in situations of high-intensity conflict,” the Ministry of Health letter reportedly notes.

The report adds that Health Minister Catherine Vautrin has not denied the authenticity of letter, claiming that it is “part of preparation.”

“It’s part of preparation, like strategic stockpiles, like epidemics,” Vautrin stated.

She added, “Hospitals are constantly preparing for epidemics and patient intake. The fact that the country is preparing for crises and assessing the consequences of what is happening [in the world] is completely normal.”

“I wasn’t in office at the time of Covid-19, remember, there were no words harsh enough to describe the country’s lack of preparedness,” she further stated.

This isn’t the first time we’ve heard about this.

Earlier this year, the French government sent a ‘survival manual’ to every household in France, warning them of an ‘imminent threat to the country’.

(VIDEO) SportsCenter Hosts SHRED Crazed Phillies Karen – “Really Lady?… Make Her Feel Terrible” – “What The Hell? What is Wrong with People?”

Revenge is best served Cold

Phillies Karen’s war against a young boy celebrating his birthday at a Phillies-Marlins baseball game on Friday night immediately hit SportsCenter that same night, with hosts Nicole Briscoe and Michael Eaves shaming the woman. 

As The Gateway Pundit reported, a woman at the Phillies game lost her mind after a father in left field grabbed a home run ball and gave the souvenir to his young son. She then approached the family and forced the birthday boy to hand his ball over.

The viral incident set the internet ablaze and crowned the woman “Phillies Karen.”

Click here for video of her being a Karen

Not only did the woman face shame from millions who saw the clip, but the boy also got a happy ending when both teams honored him with gifts. The Phillies even got him a meeting with Gold Glove-winning outfielder Harrison Bader, who hit the homer in question, and a signed bat.

During a segment of SportsCenter’s “So This Happened,” Briscoe and Eaves broke down the incident.

“Oh, she went after him!” Briscoe said. “She is big mad… Watch the reaction of everyone around her. I hate to call her a Karen, but…”

Eaves was incredulous, saying, “That’s not how that works, though… Really, lady?” When hearing that a Marlins representative apologized to the kid and gave him a swag bag, Eaves added, “Awesome. Make her feel terrible.”

In summation, Briscoe commented, “That is how you treat kids. I don’t care lady who you are. You didn’t have a kid with you; he did, and it’s about them. What the hell?” She added, “What is wrong with people?”

“She earned that,” said Eaves.

Is Your Underwear Cockblocking You?

On Tuesday, I posited that the Pill may not only be driving women crazy, but it may also go a long way to explaining men’s declining sperm counts. Today, I’ve got a new theory about why men’s sperm counts are low and women struggle to get pregnant: It’s the underwear. While we’ve been focused on men’s tighty-whities as one of the problems behind their lower sperm count because they overheat men’s testicles, cooking sperm, the polyester that’s in almost everyone’s underwear may also be a problem.

In an era before “better living through chemistry” became a thing, to the extent people wore undergarments, they fit loosely and, of course, were made from natural fibers such as cotton, wool, linen, or silk. Having said that, chemistry began to infiltrate fabrics as early as the second half of the late 18th century, when arsenic was used to create a startling, very popular, and incredibly poisonous green dye. Alice in Wonderland’s Mad Hatter was also a victim of the mercury that hatters used to felt hats made from animal fur.

Image made using AI.

However, it was at the end of the late 19th century that chemistry and clothing really took off. The first artificial fabric was rayon, which Hilaire de Chardonnet developed in the 1880s using wood pulp. While wood is a natural product, the process to turn it into a thread was decidedly unnatural.

The next leap into artificial fibers was nylon, which Wallace Carothers, working at DuPont, invented in 1935. This fiber was ubiquitous in the years after WWII. Even growing up in the 1960s and 1970s, I remember everything being nylon, not just stockings. Nylon was entirely artificial, for it was made from petrochemicals.

During and after WWII, artificial fibers exploded in the fabric marketplace. Acrylic and polyester were invented in 1941. By 1958, figure-shaping Spandex or Elastane, marketed as Lycra, hit the marketplace. In the 1960s, Polypropylene fibers started being used for everything from carpets to sportswear. These fabrics later morphed into the microfibers of the 1980s. All these fibers are petroleum derivatives.

These fabrics are ubiquitous and affordable. Nowadays, you pay extra for all-natural products, so most people are wearing some form of petroleum-based product on their skin, including in their underwear. Finding underwear (especially women’s undies) without Spandex or polyester, both of which lend the fabric elasticity that makes the underwear fit better and enhances the wearing experience, is difficult and expensive.

In the same post-WWII era, the American birthrate has been rapidly declining. There are lots of reasons: affluence, which always pairs with smaller families; easily available birth control and abortion; climate changistas’ hostility to children; men’s decreased sperm counts; sterility from STDs; and women’s decreased fecundity all go a long way to explaining the problem.

Today, though, one X user put together a long thread that may also explain men’s lower sperm rates and women’s decreased fecundity: Petroleum-based polyester underwear may be affecting their hormones:

Schottenstein also credited the company’s ad campaign featuring Travis Kelce, the future Mr. Taylor Swift. “Fueled by stronger product offerings and the success of recent marketing campaigns with Sydney Sweeney and Travis Kelce, we have seen an uptick in customer awareness, engagement, and comparable sales,” he added.

Phillips made several press conference appearances in Washington as survivors advocate for Congress to pass bills that could offer additional protections for victims of sex trafficking, such as those who fell prey to the disgraced late financier Epstein.

“Several of us Epstein survivors have been discussing creating our own list of names,” Phillips said, adding, “We know the names. Many of us were abused by them.”

Once Again, Trump Is The Master Troll, 2 For 1 On LinkedIn And Obama

This is what my Trump hating friends couldn’t fathom. He’s always many steps ahead of the others. What’s more, those steps are usually pretty freaking awesome. I told him that the others were playing checkers and he’s playing 4D chess. I also get a schadenboner because LinkedIn is a liberal bastion of cringe and shit talking.

In a Final Boss move, he does this:

In a move reminiscent of President Bill Clinton staffers removing the “W” key from White House keyboards, someone on President Trump’s tech staff is trolling former Democrat employees of the executive branch via LinkedIn, by making sure 47’s photo appears in their online profiles.

If a Democrat worked in the Obama or Biden administration and lists that job in his or her profile, since “The White House” is the employer, the current president’s photo is displayed.

“Liberals HATE IT!” remarked Eric Daugherty on X.

? BREAKING: The White House on LinkedIn has changed their profile picture to Donald Trump, so even the people who worked for BIDEN from 2021-2025 have Trump’s face on their profile. Liberals HATE IT. ?

“If you worked for the White House in the past, and it’s on your profile,… pic.twitter.com/HdG85jWq88

A Trump parody account on X imagined former President Obama opening his LinkedIn account:

Yes. Any lib who ever worked at the White House now has my big, beautiful face on their linkedin timeline. —LFG!!!?￰゚ᄂᆪ?￰゚ᄂᆪ pic.twitter.com/GNr8NOGxpW

— il Donaldo Trumpo (@PapiTrumpo) September 3, 2025

Remarked a writer at Red State: “Once again, Trump and his team have outmaneuvered the Democrats. What are they going to do, delete the fact that they worked at the White House, probably the biggest job many of them have ever had? Are they going to nuke their entire profile because they just hate Trump that much?

Folks, if there’s one thing Donald Trump has mastered, it’s the art of memetic provocation. He’s basically the Troll Master General at this point. 

This week, he revealed in an interview he’d be adding a portrait of Joe Biden’s autopen — yes, the autopen, not Biden himself — to his “Presidential Wall of Fame” in the newly renovated White House Rose Garden. 

That was fantastic, but the encore may have been better. 

Let’s put it this way: Former Obama and Biden staffers might want to check their LinkedIn profiles.

The White House set off a social media frenzy after it swapped out its official LinkedIn profile photo for a picture of Donald Trump. You know what that means? Anyone who lists working at the White House as part of his or her work experience — staff, interns, you name it — suddenly looks like they worked for Trump on their resume.

Liberal White Women And The Destruction Of A Civilization

Over the past four decades, participation in protests and demonstrations advocating policies that eventuate in the destruction of a culture and society have evolved into a full-time liberal female occupation. The majority of these protestors are 50+ year-old white women augmented by a vast number of vacuous college-educated white women of all age groups who together with their race-obsessed college-educated black female counterparts are mindlessly hellbent on destroying American civilization.

The societal damage that liberal females, and in particular white women, have wrought over the past four decades is bordering on the incalculable and brings to mind a quote from Helen Keller (1880-1968). In her autobiography The Story of My Life she wrote: “I think the degree of a nation’s civilization may be measured by the degree of enlightenment of its women.”

There is a direct correlation between the accelerated decline of American civilization over the past forty years and the rise of the outsized influence of unenlightened and supercilious liberal women.

Some years ago, I watched a panel discussion with a number of professors at a prestigious Ivy League university. These academics were regaling a naïve and worshipful audience of mostly white with a smattering of black women about the necessity of viewing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), the LGTBQ movement, and Third Wave Feminism as all-encompassing national civil rights battles.

A four-time convicted murderer at a California prison was charged Friday with killing his wife during a November conjugal visit, the Amador County District Attorney’s Office told KCRA News.

Prosecutors said David Brinson strangled 62-year-old Stephanie Dowells during an overnight family visit in November 2024 at Mule Creek State Prison, according to the outlet. Brinson called staff just after 2 a.m.; Dowells was pronounced dead at 2:51 a.m., prison officials reportedly said.

“We have an innocent person coming to your jail or your prison. You have a duty to protect them. And they failed miserably. And now it’s time that they be held accountable,” Michael Oppenheimer, an attorney for Dowells’ family, told KCRA News.

When you are a DEI appointee, break the law, cheat the IRS and be a semi-lunatic about your crime, yes, you are the Asshole of the Week.

The Justice Department has filed a response to Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook’s lawsuit over her Monday firing – claiming that the President was within his right to boot her over allegations of mortgage fraud (with a third property disclosed by Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director Bill Pulte last night), and that Cook is “highly unlikely to prevail on the merits.” 

Trump’s legal team argues that the Federal Reserve Act (FRA) gives the President “broad discretion” to remove governors “for cause” and that courts cannot second-guess that judgment:

The Federal Reserve Act (FRA) empowers the President of the United States to appoint (by and with the advice and consent of the Senate) the members of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 12 U.S.C. § 241. Those Governors serve for fixed terms, “unless sooner removed for cause by the President.” Id. § 242. The statute thus expressly contemplates that, even setting aside his Article II authority over principal officers, the President retains broad discretion to remove a Governor for “cause.”

Citing Reagan v. United States (1901) and Dalton v. Specter (1994), they write “Where a statute commits decisionmaking to the discretion of the President, judicial review of the President’s decision is not available,” therefore Cook cannot get a temporary restraining order allowing her to stay in her job.

Ranked: The World’s Most Expensive Cities to Live in 2025

From rent to groceries, the cost of living varies widely around the world.

In recent years, rising price pressures have only sharpened these disparities. While tech and financial hubs often face the steepest costs, local factors like currency and imports also drive up prices.

This infographic ranks the most expensive cities worldwide, based on data from Numbeo.

The Top 15 Most Expensive Cities Globally

For the rankings, cities are compared to New York City, which is set as the baseline of 100.

To provide a broad view of urban affordability, cities were analyzed on everyday expenses like food, transportation, and utilities, and housing costs. These were measured in a “Cost of Living Plus Rent Index”, with data as of mid-year 2025: entries per pageSearch:

The Hidden Cost Of Europe’s Free Education

My wife is Scandinavian. I’ve heard 3 decades of shit from them about free education, free medical, and free money if you can’t work or are going to school, or basically, if you are alive, you can suck off the system. There are a lot of illegals and goat herders who are getting free money also. Someone is paying for it.

The problem I point out is that their 70% tax rate is paying for this.

The other problem is that almost everyone in her family who got an operation had to either have it redone or had results that would be malpractice were it not socialized medicine.

Not all of her country finishes high school. So much for the education.

Even they don’t believe it is free anymore. Their argument couldn’t hold water as soon as I asked a couple of questions about how the economics work. They can be insufferable so the less we talk, usually the better, for me at least. You can only listen to so much shit before it gets old and it got old for me decades ago.

Now This:

Europe’s free university model is often seen as a triumph of modern society. With no crushing tuition bills, minimal student debt, and a promise of equal access, it sounds ideal. In countries like Germany and France, students pay only a small administrative fee, typically between $200 and $500 a year, compared to the staggering tuition costs in the US or UK. Many also receive financial aid in the form of grants that don’t need to be repaid, or low-interest loans based on need.

But behind the promises of fairness and opportunity lies a system that too often feels rigid, overcrowded, and uninspiring.

For all its accessibility, the reality of navigating these institutions can leave students feeling like just another number in a giant, bureaucratic machine.

When education is available to everyone, universities become packed. Lecture halls overflow, and personal contact with professors becomes rare. In many European countries, it is normal to attend classes with hundreds of other students. There is little space for discussion, feedback, or even questions.

You sit, you take notes, you pass or fail. It feels more like an assembly line than a place for learning. And the numbers explain why. In 2022, the European Union had 18.8 million students, about 7 percent of its total population, enrolled in tertiary education. In the United States, about 19.1 million people were enrolled in college during the 2024–25 academic year. In addition to similar enrollment figures, both the EU and the US have made higher education widely accessible. In the EU, where tuition is often free or heavily subsidized, higher education has been expanded to accommodate the majority. As of 2022, 44 percent of EU citizens aged 25–34 had completed a tertiary degree, compared to 50 percent in the US.

The two systems differ in structure. What sets these systems apart is not the number of students, but how education is delivered. European universities tend to rely on large lectures, rigid course pathways, and limited institutional competition. The result is a model built for efficiency over individualization. US institutions, by contrast, operate in a competitive, decentralized environment with a wider range of academic structures, including smaller colleges and more flexible program design.

When higher education is scaled to serve nearly everyone, as in much of Europe, it risks trading depth for throughput and personalization for administrative convenience. It works, but at the cost of treating education less as a journey and more as a bureaucratic process.

So I’m tired of hearing about their system. They are about to turn out a bunch of substandard students not to mention all of the illegals.

Try Making SNL Funny, That Might Work – Or Less Biased

I was around for the first seasons of SNL. Sure, I suffered through the bumble bees, but I got to see Chee-Burger, Samurai Chef, Bass-o-matic and Lord and Lady Douchebag.

NBC’s Saturday Night Live is preparing for what its creator and longtime producer Lorne Michaels described as a “significant shake-up” in the cast ahead of the launch of its 51st season this fall.

In an interview with Matthew Belloni of Puck, Michaels, 80, said decisions on which performers would remain on the sketch show will be finalized “in a week or so.”

While he did not name specific individuals, he confirmed that “several current cast members are expected to exit” before the season premiere on October 4.

When asked whether he intended to make changes ahead of the new season, Michaels responded simply: “Yes.”

He added that the announcement on cast adjustments will come shortly before production resumes.

The show enters its new season following the departure of cast members Punkie Johnson and Molly Kearney, who confirmed in early August that they would not return.

The current roster includes 17 players, with notable figures such as Colin Jost, Bowen Yang, and Kenan Thompson among the best-known names.

Oh, Now Disney Wants Men Back In Theaters After Years Of Catering To Feminism – Good Luck With That One

I’ve got news for you, unless you get rid of the woke crap, tell us stories with believable hero’s, you’ll stay the democratic part of the entertainment industry. You’ll never see us again. We’re the people cheering Gina Carino and Ron DeSantis.

A recent report from Variety claims that the top echelons of Disney are scrambling to figure out how to entice the male demographic back into theaters, specifically Gen Z men.  Apparently, a media company alienating 50% of their audience base is, in fact, a bad business decision.  The mind boggles…   

Keep in mind, this is the same company that coined the phrase “The Force Is Female” and “Her-O” (instead of “Hero”…very clever).  This is the same company that tried to embed gay and trans characters into movies for toddlers.  This is the same company that actually went to war with the state of Florida to force them to accept LGBT and gender fluid indoctrination in public schools in opposition to the vast majority of the voting population. 

Finally, this is the same company that tried to bait and switch legendary male heroes for feminist “Girl Boss” heroes in every significant action/fantasy/sci-fi franchise they own the rights to. 

They turned Star Wars and Marvel, two of the biggest box office properties of all time, into the menstruation huts of the cinema world.  They went from making billions per project, to bombing harder than Nagasaki in theaters and in streaming. 

The crux of the problem is that media companies have systematically eliminated any factors that might remotely interest men.  This was not an accident, they did this by design.  This includes going to war against the “male gaze” and the archetype of the male protector (knight in shining armor).  Female protagonists alone are not a deal breaker, but remove all femininity, all sex appeal and browbeat the audience with anti-male messaging about how women “don’t need no man” and there goes your biggest potential cash pool.    

Disney has been at the forefront of the woke deconstructionist agenda to rewrite or destroy every masculine western pop culture figure of the past 50 years.  They treated these icons as sacrificial lambs; joyfully slaughtered to appease the demonic gods of feminism.  And now, they want the men they openly despise to come running back with wallets in hand?

That’s a new level of crazy.  But hey, that’s Disney.

Cracker Barrel Trying To Overtake Jaguar In Wokeness

TOTAL CHAOS AT SEA: Massive BRAWL Erupts on Carnival Cruise Ship Over ‘CHICKEN TENDERS’ (VIDEO)

It’s been said that if a whole cruise ship sank, no one of importance would ever do (excepting the Titanic which had everyone against creating the Fed on board).

To me, it is a discount vacation for losers. In a way, it’s like fishing on a party boat. They blow the horn, lines out. The next horn, lines in. They let the cruisers go only as far as they can go when in port for a couple of hours to get their T-shirt or shell.

It seems one set of people seems to frequently ruin it for others. It’s a pattern.

A Carnival cruise ship turned into a floating fight club after a late-night brawl erupted among passengers reportedly over ‘chicken tenders.’

According to the New York Post, the melee erupted in the ship’s dining area around 2 a.m. Monday, the final day of its voyage back to Miami, when a dispute spiraled out of control and involved about two dozen passengers.

Video footage, which has since gone viral, shows a chaotic scene of several young cruisers throwing wild punches, knocking each other to the ground.

The confusion mirrors eyewitness accounts of shoes, phones, and personal items flying as the violence intensified.

Security eventually tried to intervene, but one guard could be seen running away and reaching for his radio instead of jumping into the fray.

A mob of passengers can be seen pressed against a wooden partition, trading punches while others climb up to record the chaos on their phones.

While MSM Screamed “Climate Crisis”, Arctic Ice Loss Actually Slowed  – For Tim O’Reilly Who Told Me Tides Were Rising

He turned out to be a troll in my timeline. The post was how the sea was rising and would swallow up miles of land around the world. The only thing that got swallowed were the global warming lies by the enviroweenies. My response was that history will prove that AGW and the Climate hoax they worship was wrong.

Here goes:

What the globalist corporate media once smeared as “conspiracy theory” and branded “misinformation” has turned out to be true: the climate crisis was merely an imaginary problem and an informational war on the minds of the taxpayer.

Why all the propaganda? Give Democrats cover for a massive heist of the U.S. Treasury, laundering taxpayer dollars through mysterious NGOs via the Green New Deal Inflation Reduction Act into radical leftist NGOs and politically connected green companies. It was never about saving the planet, as it turns out. 

Between 2019, when socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez introduced the Green New Deal (which ultimately failed), and President Biden’s passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022, the globalists, their corporate media outlets, and dark-money-funded NGOs unleashed a propaganda blitz by flooding the airwaves with record levels of “climate crisis” stories and left millions of folks with climate anxieties.

As soon as the heist was over … those climate crisis headlines, according to Bloomberg data this month, quite literally evaporated.

Sorry, I Don’t Like Major League Baseball That Much

Last week, OutKick calculated that it would cost consumers $671.64 to stream every NFL game from the start of the 2025 season to the Super Bowl — about $111.94 per month for six streaming services carrying NFL games this season.

And while that number may cause baseball fans to chuckle, streaming won’t be much cheaper for them.
According to the New York Times, Apple and NBC are the frontrunners for Sunday Night Baseball and first-round playoff games, Netflix is a frontrunner for the Home Run Derby, and ESPN is looking at rights for weekday games. 

In the event that all comes to fruition, starting next season, streamers will need the following services to have access to all nationally televised baseball games:

  • Peacock (NBC games): $10.99/mo
  • Fox One: $19.99/mo
  • Netflix: $22.99/mo
  • ESPN DTC: $29.99/mo
  • HBO Max (TBS games): $9.99/mo

Screw Global Warming – Companies Grabbing As Much Energy Possible For AI

AI took us from micromanaging light bulbs to Microsoft re-starting 3 Mile Island because they need the power to run their engine. It’s like the made up climate crisis never happened.

Now, companies (and China) are racing to get their hands on as much power-generating capacity.

Here are some links and info:

Google to Spend $9 Billion in Oklahoma to Expand AI, Cloud Infrastructure

Zuckerberg “Focused” On Building Mega Gigawatt-Size Data Centers

How Much Power Do Data Centers Use? (link below)

Data center demand is rising at a break neck speed, with little signs of slowing.

As the electricity consumption of AI rises, by 2028, a projected 12% of U.S. electricity demand could be driven from data centers. Beyond America, countries are pouring billions into AI sovereignty efforts which require data center facilities running 24/7 to power them.

This graphic, via Visual Capitalist’s Dorothy Neufeld, shows data center demand as a share of total power consumption, based on data from the IEA.

The Boom in Data Center Demand

Here is the share of each region’s total power demand that is driven by center centers:

As we can see, America’s data center demand leads globally, at 8.9% of total power consumption.

In Virginia, data centers account for 26% of the state’s total power consumption—or nearly triple the national average. This year, the state’s leading utility firm expects to connect 15 new data centers given surging demand.

As big tech ramps up AI spending, a significant share is being funnelled into massive data centers along with the energy sources that power them. In particular, demand for nuclear is expanding at the fastest rate in decades.

By comparison, data centers comprise 4.8% of the total power share in the European Union and 2.3% in China.

Pentagon Awards Contracts To 4 Artificial Intelligence Developers

Nothing could go wrong here. Maybe they can develop a Wopr from War Games.

The U.S. Department of Defense announced on July 14 that it has awarded contracts to four U.S.-based artificial intelligence (AI) developers to address national security challenges. (will they announce how much it’s going to run over budget?)

Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, and xAI will each receive a contracting award with a ceiling of $200 million, according to a statement shared by the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office.

The office said these four companies would help “develop agentic AI workflows across a variety of mission areas.”

“Agentic AI” refers to systems designed to operate with minimal human input.

Formed in 2021, the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office is responsible for speeding up the military’s adoption of AI systems.

OpenAI was the first of the four contract awardees to announce its contract with the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office.

In June, the company unveiled “OpenAI for Government” and said its first partnership under the new initiative would help the Pentagon office identify and prototype new AI tools for administrative operations.

Anthropic has developed the Claude family of AI chatbots.

In June, Anthropic announced the development of custom “Claude Gov” models intended for national security clients.

The company said agencies operating at the highest level of the U.S. national security sector are already using these AI models.

Formed by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk in 2023, xAI serves as a parent to X Corp., which operates the social media platform X. Among its services, xAI has developed the Grok AI chatbot.

On July 14, xAI announced “Grok for Government” and confirmed that the service holds contracts with the Department of Defense and the U.S. General Services Administration.

Google Public Sector Vice President Jim Kelly said in a July 14 blog post that the new AI announcement with the Department of Defense would build on a long-standing partnership between Google and the U.S. military.

Kelly said his company would give the military access to its Cloud Tensor Processing Units, which power Google’s current AI applications.

“These advanced AI solutions will enable the DoD to effectively address defense challenges and scale the adoption of agentic AI across enterprise systems to drive innovation and efficiency with agile, proven technology,” Kelly wrote.

From Venice, Adela Magana and her family went to Golf N’ Stuff mini-golf course and amusement park to celebrate the 13th birthday of her son on Aug. 6. She was on a bench sitting down watching her kids play, and then BOOM, a palm tree reportedly fell down and crashed on her.

Along with two other individuals who were playing mini-golf that night, the father of the family, Amando, and his 22-year-old son, Junior, ran over to get the 40-foot tree off her. However, the damage was already done, and it was bad. Per the Ventura County Star, Adela’s right arm was lost following Ventura County Medical Center doctors amputating it right under the shoulder one day after the tree crushed it.

A new YouGov poll confirms that normal Americans aren’t too offended by American Eagle’s new ad campaign featuring actress Sydney Sweeney.

According to the poll, only 12% of Americans found it “offensive.” That number sounds about right. Most well-adjusted people who don’t spend their days refreshing the MSNBC opinion section every minute or combing through LGBT Reddit threads are going to find the ad perfectly normal. Maybe not clever, and maybe not offensive, but just a typical advertisement that relies on the most tried-and-true strategy ever: sex sells.

DEI At the DC Police Force? Chief Doesn’t Know What Chain Of Command Is (Because you don’t need one with DEI, It’s beyond the Peter Principle)

Washington D.C. Police Chief Pamela A. Smith was humiliated earlier today after revealing that she apparently doesn’t know what the term “chain of command” means.

During a press briefing, a reporter asked Smith “Do you know what the chain of command is now?” referring to President Trump having deployed National Guard troops to the capital to restore law and order.

Smith looked puzzled and responded “What does that mean?”

If you care, there is a lot more here.

Trump announced the deployment of approximately 800 National Guard troops to D.C. alongside the federalization of the city’s Metropolitan Police Department, citing a “public safety emergency” due to what he described as rampant crime and lawlessness in the nation’s capital.

Trump invoked Section 740 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, which allows the president to take control of the police for up to 48 hours during emergencies, extendable to 30 days with congressional notification, to justify this unprecedented move.

He claimed the city had been “overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals,” pointing to high-profile incidents like the assault of a former Department of Government Efficiency staffer during an attempted carjacking.

Neat Burger, a restaurant chain co-founded by seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton, has entered liquidation.

The business was launched six years ago with a plant-based menu, with the chain also backed by Hollywood superstar Leonardo DiCaprio.

A number of restaurants were opened in London, while doors were also opened in Milan and New York.

However, it has been struggling financially over the last handful of years, with reported losses from 2022 being in the £7.9 million range – up from £3.2 million from the year before.

In 2023, it announced half of its UK restaurants would close, before the New York facility shut its doors for the final time last summer.

In a further blow, the company cited financial and operational challenges behind its decision to close the remaining restaurants earlier this year.

It has now emerged that Neat Burger has appointed FRP Advisory as its liquidator on July 22.

Money Or Love? What Did Gen Z Pick?

Nearly Half of Gen Z Say They Would Choose Financial Stability Over Love

In a heartbreaking sign of just how badly the Biden-Harris economic disaster has affected America’s youth, a shocking new survey revealed that nearly half of Gen Z, 46 percent, would abandon all hope of romance for money.

Matchmaking company Tawkify surveyed 1,000 Americans to “explore how daters today weigh love, money, and emotional baggage,” and the results were disheartening.

The pollsters found:

Millennials are likeliest to choose love over money: 59% would prioritize a “broke and magical” relationship over financial security compared to 54% of Gen Z, 48% of baby boomers, and 46% of Gen X.

Gen X is the most financially pragmatic, with 52% choosing security over romance.

Women are likelier than men to choose love over money: 58% of women would prioritize a “broke and magical” relationship over financial security, compared to only 51% of men.

Nearly 7 in 10 Americans (69%) have stayed in a relationship longer than they should have due to shared finances; 44% of these situations were temporary, and 25% were long-term.

Not only would Gen Z give up love for cash, the pollsters found that 29 percent would consider “reuniting with an ex-partner if that person became wealthy.”

‘Now it’s quiet, we can swim’ – After foreigners banned from Swiss pool, season ticket sales surge and police incidents stop

SHARE

After all foreigners were banned from a Swiss swimming pool in Porrentruy over violence, sexual harassment and constant disturbances, Swiss visitors to the pool and employees are generally expressing happiness with the move.

The ban, which came about after “French youths with a migration background” continuously caused problems at the pool and in pool bathrooms, including sexual harassment of young girls. The situation even sparked international headlines.

However, the Swiss paper 20 Minuten reported a surge in season ticket sales after the ban was put in place.

“It went very well. Citizens have rediscovered the bathing establishment with the peace and quiet that comes with it,“ said Lionel Maître, the municipal councilor for tourism and leisure in Porrentruy. “We have seen an increase in season ticket sales as citizens have finally regained the long-awaited sense of security. There have been no problems and no new bathing bans since then.”

Maître said that it had become increasingly noticeable that the perpetrators had Arabic names.

Apollo News also reported that the need for security has suddenly disappeared since the ban on foreigners.

Beijing Pays Influencers In Africa To Spread Anti-US Messaging

Why do we want to be friends with them? Why did the Clintons and Bidens sell out to them? Money over country?

JOHANNESBURG—Chinese and Russian agents are paying social media influencers in Africa to spread anti-U.S. messages worldwide, with the Trump administration being a top target, media experts say.

Their research reveals that many influencers who use the TikTok platform are earning hundreds to thousands of dollars per month by disseminating misinformation, disinformation, and propaganda that benefits Beijing and Moscow.

The studies align with information presented to Congress on July 22 by U.S. President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the U.S. military in Africa.

Analysts say China, Russia, and other malign actors are taking advantage of an information void created by the White House’s decision to cut financial aid to Africa, which has impacted the funding of media previously supported by the U.S. government.

In 2024, the Washington-based Africa Center for Strategic Studies documented nearly 200 pro-Kremlin and pro-China social media campaigns in each major region of Africa, with the Chinese regime’s influencers particularly active in Southern and West Africa.

One of Africa’s most popular social media figures has told The Epoch Times she’s receiving money to distribute information that makes Russia and China “happy.”

This is mostly messages about Trump,” she said, asking that her name be withheld so that she didn’t “anger” her employers and lose income.

She said influencers working for Moscow and Beijing receive payments online via sites that facilitate paid promotions, with South Africa’s Lit marketplace one of the more popular systems.

The money we’re making like this can be a few thousand dollars every month; it all depends on how popular our posts turn out,” she said.

She’s A Girl, If She Can’t Get Laid, It’s Her Fault

They pick out the one and start wailing away.

A Harris County constable deputy is facing scrutiny after a TikTok post went viral suggesting she planned to issue tickets indiscriminately because of a lack of intimacy in her personal life, as reported by The New York Post.

The post, made by Harris County Precinct 5 Deputy Jennifer Escalera, has sparked public backlash and prompted an internal affairs investigation.

The video, which has since been deleted, showed Deputy Escalera in uniform writing on a notepad.

The caption over the clip read, “Didn’t get cracked last night so everyone is getting a ticket,” suggesting that her ticketing decisions might be influenced by her personal frustrations. Although parts of her uniform were blurred, Escalera’s name tag remained visible in the footage.

Cincy Mayor – I’ve Got Better Things To Do Than Worry About A Couple Of White People Getting Beat Senseless

“Better Things To Do” lyrics

Terri Clark Lyrics

“Better Things To Do”

Don’t tell me the reason that you’re calling
Is to see if I’m all right since you’ve been gone
‘Cause I know you and I know why we’re talking
You’re wanting me to say I’m barely hanging on
Well, maybe that was true for a night or two
But now, I got better things to do

[Chorus:]
I could wash my car in the rain
Change my new guitar strings
Mow the yard just the same as I did yesterday
I don’t need to waste my time crying over you
I got better things to do

Maybe when I don’t have so much going
Or quite so many irons in the fire
I’ll take the time to miss you like you’re hoping
But now, I can’t put forth the effort it requires
Well, I’d love to talk to you, but then, I’d miss Donahue
That’s right, I got better things to do

[Repeat Chorus]

Check the air in my tires
Straighten my stereo wires
Count the stars in the sky or just get on with my life
I don’t need to waste my time crying over you
I got better things to do
I got better things to do

Tired Of Your Pet, Feed Him To The Lions In Denmark

Seriously, what is in the water over there? Maybe this is what is rotten in Denmark.

There is no way I’m sending my pet to get euthanized and eaten. I’m not a savage. Maybe they couldn’t hold back that Viking gene and had to kill something to feed it to the predators. Anyway, there is no way this was going to turn out good the minute some pissed off girl sends her ex’s pet to the zoo for lunch.

A zoo in Denmark is asking for donations of small pets as food for its predators.

The Aalborg zoo said it is trying to mimic the natural food chain of the animals housed there “for the sake of both animal welfare and professional integrity” and offers assurances the pets will be “gently euthanized” by trained staff.

The zoo in northern Denmark explained in a Facebook post that “if you have a healthy animal that needs to be given away for various reasons, feel free to donate it to us.”

The zoo points to guinea pigs, rabbits, and chickens as possible donations. After being euthanized, the animals will be used as fodder, the zoo said.

“That way, nothing goes to waste — and we ensure natural behavior, nutrition and well-being of our predators,” the zoo said.

The online call for pet donations is accompanied by a picture of a wildcat baring its teeth with its mouth wide open and a link to the zoo’s website, noting the facility also is interested in receiving horses.

They Buried The Truth To Destroy Trump

excerpt:

Washington was still in a stupor in the weeks following the shocking—at least to some—election of Donald J. Trump as the 45th President of the United States. Precisely a month after Election Day, the next chapter of the story began.

On December 8, 2016, President Obama was scheduled to receive a classified President’s Daily Brief (PDB) the following day, which would assess Russian interference in the 2016 election. 

The verdict? “Russian and criminal actors did not impact recent U.S. election results” through cyber means. The Intelligence Community (IC) expressed only “low-to-moderate confidence” that any foreign operation had even attempted to tamper with election infrastructure.

The facts were clear: no votes had changed, and no election systems had been breached.

Before December 8, internal IC consensus held that Russia lacked both the intent and the capability to corrupt the vote. A September 12 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) had concluded that foreign adversaries “do not have and will probably not obtain the capabilities to successfully execute widespread and undetected cyberattacks” on U.S. election infrastructure.

Yet by mid-December, the CIA publicly attributed intent not merely to disrupt but to help Trump win—a stark departure from what agencies, including the FBI and CIA, had privately concluded.

Why Create These Virus Strains – Japan Creates Frankenstein Bird Flu Virus With New Immunological Traits

According to a new study published last week in NPJ Vaccines, Japanese researchers engineered an entirely new strain of bird flu, combining the genetic material of two separate wild viruses to create what they call Vac-3: a pathogen that is “a reassortant virus between A/duck/Hokkaido/101/2004 (H5N3) and A/duck/Hokkaido/262/2004 (H6N1).”

This lab-built virus—A/duck/Hokkaido/Vac-3/2007 (H5N1)—was never observed in nature.

It was artificially assembled, grown in eggs, concentrated, and inactivated with formalin to become the whole-particle vaccine used in long-term testing on nonhuman primates.

The new study comes after NIH-funded researchers at the University of Georgia, Mount Sinai, and Texas Biomed were caught engineering lab-made H5N1 bird flu viruses—one of which killed 100% of exposed mammals—using synthetic DNA constructs and then deliberately infecting live dairy cows, all under the same $59 million federal contract that has also been tied to mammal-adapted, drug-resistant strain development.

Japan is also working with U.S. scientists on other projects to build lab-made horse-human influenza hybrids that replicate 100 times faster than natural strains using aborted fetal cells engineered with the cancer-linked SV40 virus, also under the banner of vaccine development.

All of these developments raise fears that another man-made pandemic is on the horizon, as Congress, the White House, the Department of Energy, the FBI, and the CIA have acknowledged that a lab-related incident involving gain-of-function research is most likely the origin of COVID-19.

I’m Shocked – Liberal Women Are America’s Unhappiest, Study Finds

Progressive politics may promise empowerment, but for many liberal women, the result appears to be rising misery and isolation.

A growing body of data points to a clear trend: liberal women are statistically the most dissatisfied and mentally unwell demographic in the country, and experts say it may have more to do with worldview than circumstance.

According to a 2024 survey from the Institute for Family Studies (IFS), just 12% of liberal women aged 18-40 report being “completely satisfied” with their lives.

In contrast, 37% of conservative women in the same age group report full satisfaction, a difference that speaks volumes.

The findings come from the 2024 American Family Survey, which also shows that liberal women are two to three times more likely to say they are “not satisfied” with their lives.

Marriage and faith, two traditional anchors of community and stability, may play a key role in the satisfaction divide.

56% of conservative women in the study are married, while only 37% of liberal women are.

Church attendance reflects a similar gap: 53% of conservative women attend religious services weekly, compared to just 12% of liberal women.

That detachment from relational and spiritual communities may be fueling widespread loneliness.

Nearly 30% of liberal women report frequent loneliness, while only 11% of conservatives say the same.

“These women are lacking key support systems that help weather life’s inevitable challenges,” said Brad Wilcox, a senior fellow at IFS.

“We’ve seen in the research that conservative women tend to be more likely to embrace a sense of agency and to have the sense that they are not, in any way, the victim of larger structural realities or forces.

“They’re also less likely to catastrophize about public events and concerns and more likely to think of themselves as captains of their own fate.”

See, It’s Sh*t Like This That Pisses Me Off – Insider confirms scheme under Obama to manipulate intelligence to hurt Trump – Part II

John Brennan and Barack Obama

An insider in America’s intelligence community who now has turned whistleblower says he refused to concur in the manipulated intelligence assessment created under Barack Obama that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help candidate Donald Trump, and immediately was excluded from further discussions.

Further, his concerns about the falsehoods being pushed by that agenda were ignored, he said.

A report in the Washington Times cites the whistleblower, unidentified, in explaining he was pressured by his Obama administration superiors to go along with the staged arguments.

Evidence being found in newly declassified documents suggests that Hillary Clinton fabricated the Russiagate scandal for Trump because of concerns voters would remember her scandalous behavior when she put national secrets on an unsecured computer server she set up.

The documents also suggested the campaign to fabricate claims of links between Trump’s campaign and Russia was aided by Democrat officials from Obama down.

More information has been promised, and multiple Obama-era officials already have been referred to the Department of Justice for investigation and possible charges.

The Examiner reported the senior U.S. intel official confirmed he was pressured to endorse the false conclusions created under the anti-Trump scheme, and then he was cut out of discussions.

The Free Ride Is Over, Student Loan Interest Resumes August 1st

FWIW, Covid was a tool by DC, not an emergency.

Starting Friday, federal student loans under the SAVE (“Saving on a Valuable Education”) repayment plan will begin accruing interest again. This affects approximately 7.7 million to 8 million borrowers, said federal stats  — interest had been paused during ongoing legal action.

Advocacy group estimates suggest this will cost the typical borrower around $3,500 per year in interest, which breaks down to about $300 extra per month on average, according to the Education Department. 

Courts invalidated key provisions of the SAVE program, including the zero‑interest feature. A court injunction requires loan servicers to begin charging interest again starting Friday.

The U.S. federal government suspended interest on student loans—and paused payments and collections—primarily due to the COVID‑19 emergency.

FAFO About Alligators In Florida

Another idiot who can’t leave nature alone.

Luckily for us, the woman who did exactly that got dished with some instant karma, and considering how she only lost a flip flop, I would just count my losses and move on if I was her. To make this video even better, it’s narrated by a woman from the United Kingdom, so the accent adds a little bit of classiness to go along with wild Florida behavior.

Per a report from Fox 35 Orlando, footage has been circulating after Sarah Louise Martin posted it on her TikTok. She was on vacation from the U.K. in an alligator hotspot in Kissimmee, Florida, which is right outside of Orlando.

The video starts with the woman showing a pond with a group of deer hanging out beside it, but it wasn’t just the deer, an alligator also happened to be in attendance.

For the most part, the deer didn’t mind the gator doing his thing, despite the reptile making its way over to them. This ended up provoking some other lady to take action to get rid of the alligator and be a savior to the deer. But the problem was, like I said, she was interfering with nature and a hungry gator, which is completely unnecessary.

She attempted to get the gator to go away by tossing not one, but two flip-flops at it, but the gator clearly wasn’t a fan. So what does it decide to do?

By snatching one of her flip-flops and running into the lake with it — absolutely glorious!

The Problems With LinkedIn

I asked AI to tell me about the state of the application. To be transparent, I loathe it and find it full of Facebook behavior and cringeworthy posts about how their jobs are better than they actually are. When you are forced to act positive to pay your bills, you’ll do a lot of things and say a lot of things. I won’t, which is why I make fun of it.

When it went woke, I changed personal information like I now attended Faber College (Knowledge Is Good) and was in the Delta Tau Chi Fraternity. I rarely go there as I never liked many of the people I had to work with. I’m connected to people who I don’t even know who they are now.

If they read this and kick me off the platform, my life will stay the same.

Anyway…..

LinkedIn is widely known as the premier professional networking platform, but it has several notable downsides that users frequently criticize. Here are some of the major negative aspects of LinkedIn:

  • Superficial Connections: Many users accumulate large networks filled with contacts who never engage meaningfully. This leads to bloated connection lists that dilute the value of professional relationships, as people accept connection requests without real interaction or intent to collaborate

.

Decline in Professionalism: As LinkedIn incorporates more social media-style features, posts often mix personal anecdotes, motivational quotes, memes, and other non-professional content. This shift can clutter users’ feeds and make it harder to find truly valuable industry insights

.

Engagement Fatigue: LinkedIn pushes frequent posting and interaction, which can cause burnout. Users may feel pressured to constantly share updates or personal stories, leading to diminished quality of engagement or avoidance of the platform altogether

.

Privacy Concerns: LinkedIn collects extensive personal and professional data that can be accessed by many parties, including third-party apps and advertisers. Despite privacy settings, users’ work histories and contact info may be visible to unintended audiences, raising concerns about data security and professional repercussions

Recruiter Messages and Spam: Users often receive generic or overly persistent messages from recruiters offering “amazing opportunities” without clear details. The recruitment process on LinkedIn sometimes feels impersonal and overbearing, causing frustration

.

Paid Features and Double-Dipping: LinkedIn charges employers for job postings but also offers paid options for applicants to appear higher in candidate lists. This “pay-to-win” approach can erode trust in the fairness of job applications and make desperate applicants look vulnerable

.

Inauthentic Endorsements: The endorsements feature, meant to validate skills, is often abused through reciprocal endorsement schemes, leading many to distrust their legitimacy. Users prefer direct personal references over these watered-down public endorsements

.

Pressure to Maintain a Polished Professional Image: Users may feel stressed to constantly portray an idealized version of themselves, leading to a lack of authenticity and anxiety around online presence. This pressure can create a gap between true skills and the curated profile displayed

.

Content Overload and Quality Decline: In the race for visibility, some users share low-value or repetitive posts, which reduces overall content quality. Finding useful and relevant information amid the noise becomes challenging

.

Algorithmic Bias and Networking Barriers: LinkedIn’s reliance on connections can disadvantage users with smaller networks, creating barriers to access jobs and professional opportunities. Networking pressure and algorithmic choices may favor some profiles over others unfairly

.

Customer Service and Billing Issues: Some users report unexpected charges, difficulty canceling paid services, and poor customer support responsiveness regarding billing disputes, contributing to user dissatisfaction

.

Annoying or Irrelevant Connection Requests: Many LinkedIn users receive random or spammy connection requests, often from salespeople or automated bots, which undermines the platform’s professional integrity

.

Toxic Positivity and Questionable Content: The platform sometimes promotes overly optimistic or non-substantive posts, which can feel disingenuous or out of place for a professional network

  • .

These points highlight that while LinkedIn is a powerful tool for professional networking and career development, it is not without significant flaws. Users must navigate issues with privacy, content quality, network authenticity, and platform commercialization while managing their own professional image carefully. Being aware of these challenges can help users better leverage LinkedIn’s benefits while avoiding its pitfalls.
