Where's the Fifth Dimension when we need them?

Personally, I'm all in favor of this. Having lived ten years in the Carribbean where we never changed the clocks, I love the idea of not having to change the time on all twelve clocks we have in this house twice a year.
The Sunshine Protection Act is a proposed federal bill that would make daylight saving time permanent nationwide. If passed, it would eliminate the biannual process of changing clocks, keeping the U.S. on extended daylight hours year-round.
The Senate companion bill (S.29) was introduced by Senator Rick Scott (R-Fla.) with bipartisan cosponsors. In May 2026, the House Energy and Commerce Committee advanced the bill. President Donald Trump has expressed public support for the legislation, urging lawmakers to approve year-round daylight hours.
In 2018, Florida passed bipartisan legislation to adopt year-round Daylight Saving Time pending federal action. Nineteen states have enacted laws or resolutions to establish permanent daylight saving time once allowed by federal statute. Under the bill, states that do not opt out will adopt the permanent time, while areas like Hawaii and most of Arizona would remain on standard time.

So come on and let me know...

Alberta will hold a referendum on whether the province should remain in Canada or move ahead with a second binding vote on separation, marking the first significant test of the country's unity in decades.
Thursday's announcement by Premier Danielle Smith comes after a citizen-led petition calling for separation gathered more than 300,000 signatures early this year and a separate petition advocating that Alberta stay gathered more than 400,000.
A restive independence movement has been growing in the oil-rich province, built on a long-held sense that Alberta is overlooked by decision-makers in Ottawa.
Thing is, what after that? Stay an independent territory of England, become a seperate, new country? Or - the one I know Trump'd want but I don't - they become a new State with us. 50's a good number. Let it rest there. If they wanna be an American territory like Guam or Puerto Rico, maybe. Just maybe.

Back in the day, my Uncle Carmine owned a bar, and my Aunt Geraldine - his wife - convinced him it'd be a good idea if he bought a little kiln and let her start a little 'ceramics club' in the back room of the bar. My Mother and most of my 11 Aunts all went every Wednesday night and fucked around making stuff and drinking wine for a coupla hours. Their little club actually stayed together for a good coupla years - long after the kiln broke and got tossed, if ya catch my drift. 
Anyway, while they were still putzing around with the ceramics stuff, my mother made this for me for my apartment (which was around the corner from our family house, but that's another story). 
That was 50 years ago this summer. I still have it to this day. It's travelled with me wherever I've moved. Helluva story, huh?

Just when you think you've heard the craziest shit you can possibly think of, along comes a story like this. An out-of-control, caught-on-camera brawl broke out between families over seating at a Catholic school’s kindergarten graduation in Ohio on Thursday, sending one woman to the hospital and another to jail. Chaos ensued at the Queen of Apostles School in Toledo, Ohio Thursday morning when one family reportedly began hoarding rows of seats for themselves.

Ya knew that was coming, right?

Jeffries is a stone-cold racist, and proves it damn near every time he opens his mouth. As for leadership, maybe that explains why the Dumocrat party is as fucked up as it is. 
As for Lan Freboschlitz, she's nothing but a washed-up old prune of a leftie liberal lesbian who has no bearing  on anything, and is even more irrelevant today as she was back in the 80's when she was originally irrelevant. Didn't even know she was alive. Don't give a fuck one way or another about either of them.

Europe is dealing with a full-blown sexual health crisis as cases of gonorrhea and syphilis skyrocket to unprecedented levels, shocking new data show.
 
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) revealed the continent is in the grips of a dirty STI explosion not seen in over a decade.

This cracks me up a bit. Bennett is a leftie editorial cartoonist, and he's good at what he does, but  this one misses the mark by a country mile. He wants to say political shit forced Colbert off the air, and he's sorta right, but not in the way he thinks he is. 
It was Clobert's incessant attacks on Trump and the right - along with his geniune snarkiness and lack of any material that was actually funny that caused his show to be cancelled. 
We know that - I wonder of he does.. Juss' sayin'...

A new, longer look at one of our favorite beer guzzlin' babes...

 
'I'll have what she's having...'

...  

...  


Hey - a man can dream, can't he?







You think you were having a bad day? How about just taking the dog for a walk...

What about this poor broad? Doorbell video footage captured the shocking moment a Brazilian woman plunged into a sidewalk after a concrete slab suddenly collapsed beneath her feet while she was walking her dog.
The surveillance video showed Juliana Schiel, 21, blissfully strolling on a Cuiabá sidewalk Sunday night with her dog when a loose drain cover suddenly caved in - sending her plummeting straight down as her panicked pup frantically tugged at the leash above. A couple of passersby rushed to the gaping hole and teamed up to yank Schiel to safety before a passing motorist jumped in to help pull her out by her arms and legs. She got away with just a couple scratches and scrapes. Not like that old lady in Manhattan, poor babe who fell down the manhole Yikes...



Maybe it's time we start playing dirty also...

 
'They' do jerkoff shit like this all the time. When they can't beat you on popularity or content, they start disrupting the process - they steal campaign signs and all manner of other stupid shit. Maybe it's time the 'right' side starts doing the same thing. Fuck principals - they don't have any. Why should we be the only ones who do?
The unknown woman was caught on camera ripping a sign supporting Spencer Pratt for mayor from a Los Angeles yard — prompting online sleuths to name and shame her. A resident reported the Studio City theft to cops, explaining that he checked his property’s surveillance footage on Wednesday afternoon and saw two “female teens or young adults” grabbing the sign before walking off with it, according to a police report obtained by The California Post.
 

“I uploaded a still and I have clearer video at home,” the resident, a 65-year-old male, wrote in the report. “I do not recognize these persons, they do not live on my street and I have never seen them in the area before.” Maybe she wanted it for in front of her own house and didn't know how else to get it. Sounds legit, right?





Hats off to this HillBetty...






Getting squirrely again...

The information in the image is largely accurate regarding the biological changes in certain squirrel species during autumn.
During the fall, the hippocampus - the area of the brain responsible for spatial memory - can grow by approximately 15% to help squirrels remember thousands of hiding spots.
These are actual seasonal fluctuations.  This growth is temporary and occurs to aid in food caching for winter survival. Once winter passes, the brain region shrinks back to its normal size.
 

 This phenomenon is observed in species like the eastern gray squirrel, but it is not universal; for example, fox squirrels do not experience the same increase. 
I wonder if flying squirrels brains change...

...  

That is one helluva great price.

The King is dead? What will all of those 'No Kings' people protest now?

King Charles III was mistakenly declared dead by a UK radio station Tuesday in a shocking on-air blunder that left listeners stunned before the station suddenly went silent. Radio Caroline, which broadcasts across parts of England, accidentally triggered its “Death of a Monarch” protocol due to what station bosses later described as a “computer error.”
Regular programming abruptly stopped before presenters announced that normal broadcasts had been suspended following the “death” of the 77-year-old monarch. “This is Radio Caroline. We have suspended our normal programs until further notice as a mark of respect following the passing of His Majesty King Charles III,” the broadcast said, according to The Telegraph. “This is Radio Caroline. His Majesty King Charles III has passed away. As a mark of respect, we will play continuous, suitable music until further notice.”
 

Yeah - didn't happen. Ole' Charlie's still alive and kickin'.
 Somebody fucked up. Oh, well...

 ...  

This is one helluva deal.

How - and why - would anyone vote against this?

The House passed legislation Wednesday that would require elementary and middle schools to get explicit parental approval before changing a child’s pronouns or making other sex-based accommodations. The bill, called the Stopping Indoctrination and Protecting Kids Act, passed 217 to 198 and would tie federal funding to compliance with the new rules.
Rep. Tim Walberg, R-Mich., said parents have been ignored while school bureaucrats push “radical agendas” without telling them what is happening with their own children. He argued that schools are helping students change names, pronouns and other gender-related details without parental knowledge, calling those decisions “enormously consequential” for a child’s well-being and development.
Under the measure, schools would also need parental consent before changing a student’s gender markers or allowing a child to use locker rooms or bathrooms of the opposite sex. Supporters say the bill is about restoring parents’ rights, while critics say it could force schools to disclose sensitive information and put some children 'at risk'. If that isn't a crock of political partisan bullshit, nothing is.
 

Democrats pushed back hard - with 198 of them voting AGAINST the Bill -  with Rep. Bobby Scott of Virginia saying the bill amounts to federal coercion and overreach into local school matters. He said parental involvement matters, but argued the proposal could force schools to reveal private information even when that could 'endanger a student’s safety'.

Hoof-in-mouth disease is common amongst them...

Seattle’s leftie-loonie new Mayor Katie Wilson admitted she was wrong to slam Starbucks and push for a boycott of the mega-coffee chain birthed in the now-dying City. Wilson, 43, issued a terse 'mea culpa' (that's Latin for 'My Bad') to the New York Times this week as questions swirl about whether the liberal Northwest city can attract and retain businesses, including Starbucks, which recently chose to expand its footprint in Tennessee.
The democratic socialist made waves last fall when she joined a barista union rally as mayor-elect and expressed her disgust with one of Seattle’s most recognizable businesses.
It's now estimated that between 35 and 40% of all - commercial and residential - buildings in Seattle are now vacant. That's a sinking ship that can't turn itself around, and it's well deserved. Fuck 'em...

So yesterday afternoon it was rainin' a bit and I was bored so I'm scrolling through shit on my tablet out in the lanai, and I come across some promo for ChatGTP. The ad says it can make me in to an action figure, and I thinks to myself I thinks 'Yeah, Action Jackson - that's me alright, so I uploads this pic I had on there:
 
 
Yeah - that's me, and yeah - that's in the lanai behind our house, so yeah - I upload that pic, and like two minutes later, they show me this - which, by the way, is my new Facebook and Instagram profile pic. This shit is scary funny.
 
That's fuckin' nuts, ain't it? Too funny...

Go ten minutes outside any town, city or village in Ireland and you'll start seeing structures like that. They have a thing over there that they just don't knock down these old houses, some of which are as much as 250 years old, like this one next to my brother's cottage in Donegal County, overlooking the Gweebarra River. 
I know the guy who lives next door to the cottage - cool dude named Mick who doesn't actually appear to do anything for a living. Anyway, that land has been in Mick's family's name for over 200 years - or so he says. Kinda neat, ain't it?

Until 1956, French schoolchildren were commonly served wine, beer, or cider at lunch, sometimes up to half a liter a day. Alcohol was seen as nutritious, safer than water in some areas, and even beneficial for digestion and health. Many parents supported the practice and sent bottles with their children.
The ban for children under 14 was introduced by Pierre Mendès France, who promoted public health and replaced wine with milk in schools. Older students were still allowed small amounts with parental consent. Alcohol was fully banned from all French schools in 1981 under François Mitterrand, ending a practice that now feels unthinkable.

This is exactly how word speards of these 'Pop-up parties' the Usual Suspects have been pulling off of late. This notice gave a big heads-up to the Point Pleasant PD. Their new tactics include stationing cops at the PP train station and carding and wanding every kid that gets off the train. The NJ Transit North Jersey Coastline is how the vast majority of these little dooshbags get down the shore from the shit-hole cities up north like Newark and Jersey City.

Not me - the hotter the better. After ten years of living in the Carribbean, I think my blood thinned enough that I can tolerate even Vegas in the summer. Because we're dead-nuts in the middle of the State here, there are no ocean-cooling effects to be felt. 
In 11 years being here, I have seen it go as high as 112 degrees late in the day, and I was still kinda okay with it. I have friends here who keep their AC at 70 all summer. You could hang fucking meat in their living rooms. We keep ours set at 82 all summer. Imagine that.

A crescent-shaped beach in Hawaii that’s immersed in greenery and facing an island just offshore is the best beach in the US. So says coastal scientist Stephen P. Leatherman, better known as “Dr. Beach.” Poipu Beach on the island of Kauai tops the list for 2026, which he compiles based on 50 individual criteria. The No. 2 beach, according to Leatherman’s annual ranking, is St. Andrews State Park in Panama City, Florida.
