Last night at Parent-Teacher Conferences, my son‘s chemistry teacher was agog at the revelation that I had been to a Death Grips concert.

You Know, I Used To Be Kind Of Cool Once

You know how, every so often, something you haven’t thought about in the longest time will just sort of pop up out of nowhere, and all of a sudden you’re like, “Hey… Wait a minute”? Well, that happene...

I see that several million Americans are enthusiastically celebrating the Nobel Prize victory of Maria Corina Machado, a Venezuelan politician they have never heard of before today

TEN COMPLAINTS OF ICE AGENTS

10. The mainstream media has brainwashed everyone we meet into believing that there’s something bad about rounding up the migrants and throwing them into camps

9. You shoot ONE protesting pastor with a pepper ball, and suddenly you’re the bad guys

2. Awkward silences when people ask us “So, what do you do?” and we have to make up a face-saving cover story like “Oh, I program robocalls”

1. Those leftist blue-haired SJWs at the protests are woke and uninformed and will very rarely give us their phone numbers

4. Everyone just assumes we were all at the Capitol Building on January 6, 2021 without a thought for those of us who had to work that day and didn’t get to go

3. No one at the airport ever thanks us for our service

Dreamweasel @dreamweasel.bsky.social · 16h

6. For some reason, we are not welcomed with open arms by residents of urban hellholes that we have been assigned to protect from other residents of these aforementioned urban hellholes

5. Nobody will explain what “pendejo” means

8. None of the good Italian restaurants in Chicago seem particularly sympathetic to Trump’s anti-immigrant agenda

7. When we menacingly snarl “PAPERS, PLEASE!” at a brown-skinned migrant and he actually has the paperwork on him

- The government shutdown has nothing to do with Democrats wanting to give healthcare to illegal immigrants. People in the country illegally are not eligible for Medicaid or Obamacare subsidies. Extending enhanced Marketplace premium tax credits would not benefit undocumented immigrants in any way.

FOX: Word from the Middle East is that the Poop-Flinging Monkey has painstakingly negotiated a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians

FOX: After the hostages are returned, can a Nobel Peace Prize be far behind?

Wait; Gen X can retire?

Lora Kolodny @lorak.bsky.social · 1d

“with more Gen Xers retiring than Gen Alphas and Gen Zers to replace them, it is estimated that roughly six million people will leave the workforce over the next five to seven years who will not be replaced by younger generations…” www.cnbc.com/2025/10/07/o...

'We are on the precipice of an incredibly contracting workforce,' says jobs expert

As the number of retirees outpace young workers available to be hired, the contracting workforce is going to create a talent challenge for companies.

I am genuinely not kidding when I say that I am fully expecting “delaying the vote on the Epstein Files” to be a non-negotiable condition of the shutdown being lifted

It’s entirely possible that the man who claimed Los Angeles, Portland, Chicago and Washington DC were war zones might not be telling the entire truth about what’s happening in Israel right now

Guns N' Roses, while playing a show last night in Bogotá, Colombia, borrowed this flag sign out of the crowd. Axl held it up for everyone then later ran around stage wearing it around his neck while singing. Said the whole band would sign it then make sure the fan got it back.

No show do Guns N' Roses de ontem em Bogotá, o Axl recebeu essa bandeira da plateia durante a música Civil War.

Welcome to Day 8 of the Government Is Shut Down Because We Have a Certifiable Madman in the White House Who Would Rather Burn the Country to the Ground Than Allow the Release of the Epstein Files

Whether such people are truly evil racists or superficial simpletons who simply cannot be trusted with civic responsibility is irrelevant to me. Such people also do not deserve to be treated with any kind of respect.

Donald Trump showed us all who he was during his first term, especially in the months following the 2020 election. But some people voted for him anyway in 2024, knowing fully well that he was a lawless dictator at heart.

Dreamweasel @dreamweasel.bsky.social · 1d

There is not a single person in the Trump administration with decency, honor or integrity. Their job is to lie for Trump, full stop. Someday, their time in the Trump administration will be over, but none of them will be deserving of respect for the remainder of their lives.

CONTRARIAN TAKE: I believe that a 12-minute Super Bowl Halftime Medley is every bit as irrelevant an arbiter of musical quality as a Grammy Award

Since SNL is back I want to mention that short term cast member Luke Mones had an idea for a sketch they never did where a guy on death row is asked what he wants for his last meal and he says Olive Garden’s Never Ending Soup and Breadsticks and they can never execute him because he keeps eating
