DumbDay #277

The truth hurts his feelings?
Bah!

I mistyped the number
That cartoon is DumbDay #275.
I usually match the typing with the cartoon.

Bah!
Reviewing the cartoons for that month, I got the (up to 20 million) jailed or deported non-whites. Bad talking about women. Jeffery. And some other things people should have known back then, like the want to shutdown the govt instead of passing a temp budget.
But, I missed destroying house.

For fans of Venture Brothers and for those who know that mad show

I chat with Chris George, Danny Hynes, “Uncle” Phil Rynda and Martin Wittig about our days doing character design on the Venture Brothers! On my YouTube channel now.
That written, buying that corporation means running a huge, complicated system of companies. Apple's corporate culture is nothing like that.

I don't even see Netflix wanting to add that for similar reasons.

Amazon, sure. But, MGM is probably so less complex than Warner Brothers alone.
Thanks!
I guessed/ hoped as much.

I just suggest it because linking to it in the post encourages more who have never seen your YT page to repost it and give even more people quick access to the good stuff.

That's all
The company rarely buys big companies. I think the biggest was Beats for their headphones/ speaker biz.

But, of all the potential buyers, Apple would hopefully respect the parts better
That said, there are a lot of parts; a lot of junk companies AND some good plums

John Roberts helped reverse gains that took decades to achieve.

I have discussed the topic of affirmative action with guys who are threatened by it.
Women, of all races and ethnicities, largely benefitted from such policies. That is great, in my opinion.

This sucks.

It is incredible, and depressing.

Apparently, he also wants to build a France-like Arc(h) [de Triumph] near the Lincoln Memorial. When asked who/what it is for, he reportedly replied: "me"

This is all exhausting. Sure, I know that is intentional, but, man.
He has no respect for architecture or anything he didn't commission

CNN.
As much as it is about the whole enchilada of Warner/Discovery and him wanting The Ellisons getting what they want, CNN is the big get.

Getting the deal done? Pfft. That is a qualifier for administration approved anti-trust violations now?

The liars we got.
Derrick is one of the worst warlocks
I envy you not knowing until now.

How is the bar so low that he has one? I thought he was financially going the way of Alex Jones by being sued out of existence.
The entire "but private donors are paying for it" angle bites, too
There are people/ companies that knew this was gonna happen? Did his party?
When that guy was seen walking the roof and no one expected the worse except as jokes, is when we should have known.

Adulting #123, as easy as...

This one goes out to the ones who rock the hardest:
The Headbangers! May you rock on for as long as you can (and, don't do this at home, or anywhere!)
Also, all of the continuing resolutions, temporary spending bills, are substitutes for a proper, year- long budget.
It is tough to explain by me in one post, but, the temp spending bill is a pared down version of what Biden signed into law in 2023. A smaller version budget is what the GOP okays.
Reminder:
Cartoon Johnson says that the House passed a two month spending bill a month ago.

The last day of the House being in session was September 19th. This was after passing the bill for the temporary spending.

So while that spending was supposed to kick in on October 1, everything is screwed.
None of the articles I have seen mentioned that in the Summer, Trump was spotted on the WH roof. That was likely about this destruction/ construction. It was speculated on at the time. He never clearly addressed it then.
So, here we are now.

What to know about the $250 million ballroom Trump is adding to the White House
President Donald Trump is adding a $250 million ballroom to the east side of the White House. Construction started this week with crews tearing down part of the East Wing.

Something that should be kept in mind is that in 2017, after taking office, Trump reportedly called the White a "a real dump"
