On a pre-4th of July trip to Giant Eagle, I noticed that Budweiser is still trying to move their swill. Over a year after seeking marketing assistance from an ingrate who’s entire shtick is mocking feminine attributes of women, it’s still a slog.

Like everybody else, I loved Star Wars: A New Hope. By The Last Jedi, I lost faith in the franchise. After that, there had to be good buzz to bother watching. The first two seasons of The Mandalorian and Andor were well done.
The Acolyte is interesting because it is getting extraordinarily bad reviews. Following The Acolyte is more rewarding than watching. Two topics I haven’t seen discussed.
Yesterday, my dashcam caught a littering pig as anecdotal evidence of the descent of man. Today, my dashcam caught a nice person being neighborly and helpful. Do the two anecdotes cancel each other, or is Seven Hills just more civilized than North Olmsted?
It is truly amazing how the queer agenda has gotten their shit-hooks into everything.
Terry Bison’s short story, They’re Made Out of Meat, is so bizarre, it’s not surprising that many people have made videos of the story. This one is my favorite.
“The plural of anecdote is data.”
Well, that’s what UC Berkeley professor, Raymond Wolfinger, said, and it makes some sense.
The exchange came within the first 15 minutes, and suddenly, fears about Biden’s age and acuity, concerns that were once only whispered among Democrats, were being discussed openly on the left. Before the night was over observers ranging from Andrew Yang, who competed with him for the Democratic Party nomination in 2020, to Van Jones, a CNN contributor who previously worked in the Obama administration, said it was time for Democrats to look for another nominee.
Joe Rogan has been talking about this for a few years, yet it comes as a surprise to people who rely on NPR and the NYT. Rogan has no college degrees, but has wide ranging interests. He is a successful comedian, actor, taekwondo champion, sports commentator and podcaster. Rogan describes himself as a liberal, but thinks for himself.
The corporate media doesn’t think for themselves, and take a reliable progressive party line. They aren’t honest. Rogan is correct on major issues, more often than NPR or the NYT.
In 2018, the NYT ran an opinion piece on the intellectual dark web. Anyone not following a few of these people are wrong or uninformed about the major issues in America.
The intellectual dark web is not an actual group of affiliated people, but a number of public, heterodox individuals. People often named are Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Glenn Greenwald, Sam Harris, Heather Heying, Claire Lehmann, Bill Maher, Douglas Murray, Maajid Nawaz, Camille Paglia, Jordan Peterson, Steven Pinker, Joe Rogan, Dave Rubin, Ben Shapiro, Michael Shermer, Christina Hoff Sommers, Bret Weinstein, and Eric Weinstein.
If you aren’t following at least a few of these people, then modern American is a mystery to you.
The Biden/Trump presidential debate is 9 pm tonight. The NYT has an opinion piece on what each candidate can do to win.
NYT: Biden/Trump suggestions to win.
NYT: Biden/Trump suggestions to win.
Biden should:
- Be energetic and engaged.
- Drive the contrast with Mr. Trump.
- Outline a second-term agenda.
- Stress the threat to reproductive rights and democracy.
- Pick the right spots to go toe-to-toe with Mr. Trump.
Read the article, but I’d summarize it as Biden should not be a dotard, not talk about his record and not let Trump rattle him.
Trump should:
- Talk about the economy whenever possible.
- Focus on what matters to voters, not on himself.
- Offer a clear, simple answer when asked about abortion and reproductive health issues.
- Make the case that he represents strength, at home and abroad.
- Most important, stay energetic and on topic.
The advice can be summarized as focus on Biden’s record and stay focused.
Prior to presidential debates, everyone is deluded into thinking that their guy will mop the floor with their opponent. Democrats think their guy is erudite and articulate, while the other candidate is a dumb liar. Republicans think their guy is decent and moderate, while the other candidate is hates America and will promise anything to win.
Your candidate won’t do as well as you expect.
WSJ: Go Woke, Go Broke. Ben and Jerry’s
WSJ: Go Woke, Go Broke. Ben and Jerry’s
Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield are about as well known for their progressive politics as they are for quirky ice cream flavors like Chunky Monkey and Phish Food.
Their experiment in melding business with social justice for years seemed like a model to which many in the corporate world were warming up. And then attitudes cooled.
Ben and Jerry are old people who don’t realize the world has changed. When they started making ice cream, crunchy progressives wanted to save the whales, recycle and wear hemp clothing.
Ben and Jerry didn’t notice that modern progressives are antisemitic, despise law and order, and insist on libraries bringing in deviant sex clowns to read queerotic porn to children.
I’d like to believe that the corporate world is less interested in pushing a divisive progressive agenda.
