Everybody needs to hear a nice story about nice people once in a while. Here's one...

An Olympic medal became a lifeline for a baby in need after a champion chose compassion over personal glory.
Polish javelin thrower Maria Andrejczyk auctioned her Tokyo 2020 silver medal to help fund heart surgery for 8 month old Miłoszek Małysa. According to ESPN she saw a fundraiser for the child and decided to sell the only Olympic medal she had ever won. She wrote on Facebook that the medal could serve a greater purpose by helping save a life. A Polish supermarket chain Żabka won the auction with a bid of $125,000.
The baby's family had raised about half of the $385,000 needed for surgery ESPN reported. Andrejczyk's contribution significantly boosted the total. In a further act of generosity Żabka returned the medal to her after completing the purchase. Andrejczyk a cancer survivor said a medal is only an object but can hold value for others. Her decision transformed a personal achievement into a powerful act of giving that inspired people around the world.
Sadly, the child finally succumbed to the disease, but man, what a noble gesture on her part.

Sooner or later, everybody'll leave. Who'll pay the bills then, geniuses?

It’s not just families and retirees fleeing the government of New Jersey. Now, one of the state’s most dominant and historically tied corporations are leaving too, according to a report today by Reuters. Exxon Mobil is seeking to move its corporate registration from New Jersey to Texas, marking a symbolic shift for the company whose roots date back to the early days of the U.S. oil industry.
The proposal, disclosed in a proxy filing Tuesday, would redomicile the company in Texas, where Exxon’s headquarters has been located since 1989. If approved by shareholders, the change would make Exxon the latest major corporation to register in Texas instead of states traditionally used for corporate incorporation.
• Exxon Mobil plans to shift its corporate registration from New Jersey to Texas
• Move would align its legal home with its Texas headquarters
• Company has faced climate-related lawsuits, including a case filed by New Jersey
 

There's a great line from an old Ten Years After song that says "Tax the rich, feed the poor, 'till there are no rich no more."
That's what so many of these deep blue States are doing. They're creating tax and punish emvironments that big businesses don't have to put up with just because of proximity. But we all know if there's one thing Democrats don't do - it's learn from their mistakes. Juss' sayin'...

Welcome to Florida. Sorta...

We don’t honk because we’re angry. We honk because the car in front of us is either a tourist doing 15 mph looking for the beach… or a retiree who forgot the light turned green five minutes ago.
If you can survive random afternoon thunderstorms that appear out of nowhere, traffic that doubles during tourist season, and an alligator casually crossing the road like it owns the neighborhood, you’re one of us.
And if you can handle someone starting an argument at a gas station about Florida vs Florida State while a guy in flip-flops is buying bait and a Monster energy drink?
Congratulations.
You’re officially a Floridian.

Springstein threats are as empty as his head...

In a dramatic escalation of his long-running feud with conservative America, Bruce Springsteen has issued what aides are calling his “most nuclear artistic ultimatum yet”: he will personally force Republican lawmakers and Trump administration officials to endure repeated playings of his entire discography until mass deportations are halted.Commenters have claimed that this tactic worked well for Pink and her ear cancer, that Bruce Springsteen has decided to give it a shot.

I Wonder what's going on in Stevie's head these days. Where'd the hate come from?

Pop legend Stevie Wonder told white people to “overcome” their “hate” and “white supremacy” during his time at the mic during Reverend Jessie Jackson’s public funeral on Friday. Speaking of his relationship with Jesse J, he said: “It was personal and political. We were able to love each other and support each other through the good and the bad. I knew his heart, I respected his mind, and trusted his soul. I wish we could say everyone did,” he said of Jackson, who died in February at 84. Wonder also performed the song “As,” along with “They Won’t Go When I Go,” which he said “speaks the truth in my heart.” But Wonder also delivered an attack against white people.
“It is you, and you know who you are,” he lectured. “You need to overcome hate. You need to overcome the mindset of white supremacy…You shall overcome the need to dominate every single country and its people.”
 

Hey Stevie - you don't even know what a white person looks like, so why don't you go back to your multi-million dollar mansion a- one that an awful lotta white folk helped pay for - and shut the fuck up. That is, unless you're singin'. Then we all cool wit' dat, Homey. Jeez...

I like the dogs, yeah, but the buns could use some work...

According to the website TastingTable, Costco's $1.50 food court hot dogs are nothing short of iconic. People like them so much that Costco actually sells more hot dogs than rotisserie chickens each year. The wholesaler hasn't raised the price since the '80s, and the deal even includes a 20-ounce soda. To say this is a good price in the current economy would be an understatement; it's an absolute steal. Beyond the low cost, though, the dogs are genuinely pretty damn good - and if you want to enjoy the taste of Costco's food court hot dogs at any time, buy Kirkland Signature Beef Dinner Franks the next time you're shopping at the warehouse.
According to the package, these are the exact same hot dogs as served in the food court. They're made exclusively with beef meat, but the ingredient list also includes water, dextrose, salt, spices, sodium lactate, garlic, sodium diacetate, sodium erythorbate, paprika and extractive, and sodium nitrate. 
 

Doesn't look like there's anything in there that'll kill ya - 
at least not right away, anyway...



Pet peeves aren't always about pets, but...

 I can't be the only person in the world who thinks people who bring their pets to restaurants are selfish jerkoffs...  

Let's make one thing clear so you don't think I'm a complete asshole: Service dogs should always be allowed in a restaurant. Absolutely. No question about it. If someone requires an animal to get around in their everyday life, then the dog is a non-negotiable. 
According to the Americans with Disabilities Act, if it isn't obvious what service the dog is providing, staff can ask two questions: Is the dog a required service animal because of a disability? And what work or task has the dog been trained to perform? They can't ask about a disability specifically, nor can they ask to see documentation for the dog - and it's this point that I start losing my shit a bit.
I most definitely do not support bringing a non-service dog into the same restaurant where I'm eating - or just having a drink. Yes, Lady, your dog is cute, and yes, I tolerate other people's dogs and support you owning one. Even if that dog is well-behaved and out of people's way, there's something to be said for ignoring the "only service dogs allowed" signage because you simply don't want to be inconvenienced.
I've seen a dog to trip a customer. And I've seen waiteresses spill their trays because someone's cute little puppy nipped at her ankles.
Leave the dog home, Dorothy. And - more importantly - if you're some pussy-whipped guy carrying your household pet in to a restaurant, well, you deserve all the abuse me and my buddies can throw atcha. Juss' sayin'...

I drive a 21-year-old F-150 that's got 198,000+ miles on it. As far as I'm concerned, I'll drive that fucker till it can't drive no more. Two things to consider. One, I know where everything is and what works and what don't, and Two, a new one's more money than I paid for my first house. If I were to pump two G's a year in to maintaining it, I'm still way ahead of the game. And, like I said - I know what works and what don't. Mechanical-wise, I'm no genius - I can change the radio station and put the wipers on, and maybe use a turn signal or two. That's the extent of my manual skills vis-a-vis any vehicle. That's what mechanics are for.

The Trump administration announced Monday that it will designate the Sudanese Muslim Brotherhood as a specially designated global terrorist. Officials said the move is part of a broader effort to target extremist networks and groups accused of supporting terrorism or destabilizing governments in the Middle East and Africa. The designation allows the U.S. government to freeze assets, block financial transactions, and criminalize support for the group under American law.
The State Department said the Sudanese branch’s designation will become effective March 16, after which anyone providing material support to the organization could face criminal penalties in the United States.

When Texas voters overwhelmingly chose a different candidate, Crockett's camp furiously pointed fingers, claiming that concerns over her electability were completely rooted in racism and gender bias. Instead of taking accountability for running a flawed, last-minute campaign, she immediately defaulted to the ultimate political excuse: blaming the voters and shouting racism.

Algorithms can fuck with you. Just because I go to Twisted Hillbilly's Facebook page, these are what I seew every day in that 'Reels you should watch' shit, as if A:) I'm some kinda old horn dog, or B:) like I actually have that much free time to watch some AI-generated chich with big tits walk down the street.
The saving grace in it is the knowledge that most of those Al Gorythms are written for younger, GenZ dipshits. Or so I think, anyways...

Rosie O’Donnell went on Jim Acosta’s show and said: “More women have accused him of rape than there are trans athletes in America. He wants to protect children? Look what he did to children on that island. Katie Johnson everyone. Google it.”
So… people Googled it. The allegations she referenced were disputed, never proven in court, and resulted in no legal findings. Why do jerkoffs in the media pay any attention to this fuckin' cow? Enough already...

Ever watch two women slugging it out?

This is how they want us to believe that women fight. Actually, this is an MMA match from the other night. Watch the left the white gal throws - the knockout punch. In my best day I couldn't throw a punch tyhat good, that hard.

This is more like how real women slug it out. There's pushing and pulling, spitting, hair pulling and bitch slapping. These two babes were at a gas station (sorry - petrol station) in London when one woman stepped on the foot of the other. 
I'd rather watch fights like that all night long. Hand me a beer, will ya? We may be here for a while...
