Activists Try to Remove 2,000 Beagles from Wisconsin Research Facility

On Saturday, April 18, at 8:52 am, the Dane County Sheriff’s Office responded to approximately 1000 activists converging on Ridglan Farms in the town of Blue Mounds.

This looks like a war zone. I adore beagles, but these chaotic people are violent thugs. If they had succeeded, they weren’t going to flee the scene with a beagle under each arm. The beagles would have been released into the wild to be eaten by coyotes or face some other grim death.

Everyone knew what a woman was.

In the 1960’s, people dated, got married and had children. I don’t know if it’s related, but this Youtube video is a smoke-show compilation of popular TV shows of the era.

You get 1 point for the name of the TV show and 3 points for the name of the actress.

Answers after the jump.

Morally right and wrong

Pew Research: What Do Americans Consider Immoral?

People were asked whether a variety of activities are morally wrong. They missed some activities that normal people¹ consider to be morally wrong, such as:

Painting over wallpaper, rather than stripping the wall.
Fraudulently dressing by stuffing a bra with tissues or a sock in the trousers.
Using glue traps for mice.
Deceptively serving non-alcoholic beer or decaffeinated coffee
Calling anything milk that didn’t come from the tits of a mammal.

This is turning into a list of grievances, so let’s go to the Pew survey results.

Epstein files show there is a global conspiracy.

Human trafficking and under-age women are what landed Jeffrey Epstein in prison, but he was doing much more than that.

I Swear and hurl racial epithets.

Six weeks ago, I watched, I Swear, after hearing about it on a round up of movies from 2025. There weren’t a lot of great movies, but the reviewer mentioned it as an impressive movie that didn’t get much buzz.

Fox News: Trump says US women’s hockey team will ‘soon’ visit White House after declining SOTU invitation

The women’s team declined Trump’s invitation to attend his State of the Union address on Tuesday night in Washington, D.C., citing “previously scheduled academic and professional commitments.”

This seems like one of those phony controversies that partisans try to exploit.

Why so much coverage about this case?

February 13, 2026 / Richard Nestoff / 0 Comments

This missing person case is being covered like the Lindbergh baby. Nancy Guthrie is the mother of Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie, but that doesn’t seem like it would be enough for this case to dominate the news.

Maybe it’s just because true crime is a popular genre and this case is mysterious and engaging. It probably won’t have any long-term ramifications, so isn’t interesting to me. It almost seems like a distraction from the Epstein files, or whatever else is going on.

Words men or women know

bandeau, boucle, chambray, chenille, chignon, damask, doula, espadrille, freesia, jacquard, kohl, peplum, pessary, ruche, sateen, taffeta, tulle, verbena, voile and whipstich.

YouGov did not ask the surveyed people to define or explain the words.

Budweiser’s winning Super Bowl commercial.

If Budweiser marketing can keep this up, they may be able to get out of the hole that they dug for themselves with Dylan Mulvaney.

Hey Ese, Kasich is a bueno hombre.

February 9, 2026 / Richard Nestoff / 0 Comments

Kasich, my former governor, looks so phony and desperate by posting about Bad Bunny.

It’s not like anyone asked him to weigh in on the Super Bowl half-time show. Even if he is actually a fan of Bad Bunny, he should be politically astute enough to realize this confirms that he is a puppet dickhead.
