I turned off the comments because the people who pretend they want people vaccinated to preserve life… are the ones who are dancing on his grave.

I'm thinking that guy also meets my definition of "hillbilly boneheadedness."

"Hillbilly boneheadedness" is that mental state marked by stupidity, ignorance, and stubbornness.

Who could have predicted that Larry Kroger was a sage?




Larry: [to Jennings, while high] Okay. That means that our whole solar system could be, like one tiny atom in the fingernail of some other giant being. [Jennings nods] This is too much! That means one tiny atom in my fingernail could be--

Jennings: Could be one little tiny universe.

Larry: Could I buy some pot from you?

Larry: I won't go schizo, will I?

Jennings: It's a distinct possibility."

Kleptomaniac New Zealand parrot steals GoPro, films airborne escape

Another book banning "protect the children" right winger caught molesting children. Why is there so much projection from the right wing? And why aren't all the GQP anti child trafficking people on this? Why aren't all the twitter pizza gate morons worried about all the Republicans caught with this stuff? Why do they still fight for Matt Gaetz? I think we all know the answer.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.
A Gladstone man, who recently spoke in support of banning books from North Kansas City School District libraries that depicted sexual acts, is facing a felony charge of second-degree child molestation and a misdemeanor charge of fourth-degree domestic assault.
Ryan Utterback, 29, is also facing a misdemeanor charge of furnishing pornographic material or attempting to furnish to a minor in a separate case.

Utterback did not answer questions about the charges from KMBC 9 Investigates on Thursday as he showed up to the Clay County Courthouse for a hearing. Utterback's attorney, David Bell, declined to comment about the charges.

...

KMBC 9 Investigates started looking into Utterback's case after sources told KMBC he spoke in November against books in North Kansas City school libraries showing sexual acts.

School board members that evening listened to students who spoke in favor of not banning books from libraries.

"You know, I definitely understand their struggles. It's not lost on me," Utterback told KMBC. "Those conversations are to be had at home and only I have the intimate understanding of what is and isn't appropriate for my children."

Utterback also stood at an October North Kansas City School District board meeting holding enlarged drawings of sexual acts depicted in the book 'Fun Home'.

Utterback was standing beside Northland Parent Association president Jay Richmond as Richmond spoke against keeping that specific book in school libraries.

VP MIKE PENCE:

"I heard this week that President Trump said I had the right to overturn the election. President Trump is wrong. I had no right to overturn the election," Pence said Friday speaking at a conference hosted by the Federalist Society in Florida.

"The presidency belongs to the American people and the American people alone," Pence said.

Trump will say Pence was a RINO and was always a RINO. He begged like a dog to be VP and Trump felt sorry for him so he gave him the job but he knew he was a loser and unfit for office. But Trump only hires the best people, if you exclude the losers he filled his administration with. Or something.

Bingo!

It's similar to the narrative that all of HIS appointees to his Administration and cabinet wound up coming from the DEEP STATE.

For example, every time I would mention to a Trumpanzee that Trump was THE ONE that appointed Rex Tillerson from Exxon Mobil to be his Secretary of State or Gary Cohn from Goldman Sachs to be his Economic Advisor or Steve Mnuchin from Goldman to be his Treasury Secretary . . . they would give me the typical Dan Bongino reply that they were from the DEEP STATE.

Lolololololololololo!

Another extrajudicial killing by cops - this time of a sleeping black man unrelated to the warrant they were executing - followed by massive lies and coverup. This is just awful and yet people will line up to defend the cops for this type of behavior.

Body cam proves every line in MN Police report is a lie:
•Police did NOT announce themselves before entering
•Locke did NOT point a firearm at them
•The passive "shots were fired" tries to absolve police
Just like the George Floyd press release, this was a murder coverup. pic.twitter.com/MKjEn1OyQc

Slater turns 50 this week. Like his friend, Tom Brady, he's become the GOAT in part by defying Father Time.

Yep.

I got this one because a disproportionately high percentage of your trivia questions have the answer "Johnnie Cochran" for some odd reason. Well that and the fact Mr. Sulu has t changed that much over the years.

I remember that Johnnie Cochran and Bill Cosby spoke at UC Berkeley graduation ceremonies within the same week, 25 years ago...


(Jeez....the scanning at the UC Berkeley online archives is horrible, especially with black people. The Cosby front page was in color, by the way.)

"The metaverse" has become a catch-all term to describe virtual recreations of our world. Now the Nets are getting in on the action with "The Netaverse."

Why it matters: While "The Netaverse" isn't fully immersive yet (i.e. its on the TV broadcast, not a VR headset), the camera technology used to create a 3D rendering of the court could change how we watch basketball." Axios
