In NYC, they're gonna get dizzy shacking their heads in disbelief. Ya need an ID to shovel snow. True story...

NYPost report - Snowcialism has hit The Big Apple. 

Lefty Mayor Zohran Mamdani opposes requiring ID’s to vote - but mandates no less than five forms of identification in order to shovel snow.

The New York City Sanitation Department website says that in order to register as an emergency snow shoveler, an applicant must provide two small photos sized 1-1.5 square inches, two original forms of ID plus copies, and their social security card. 

Mamdani called on New Yorkers to sign up to become emergency snow shovelers Saturday, telling them to show up to a local sanitation garage with the reams of required paperwork.

“For those who want to do more to help your neighbors and earn some extra cash, you too can become an emergency snow shoveler. Just show up at your local sanitation garage… with your paperwork which is accessible online,” Hizzoner said at a presser Saturday. 

 

Shovelers earn an hourly rate of $19.14 and the pay jumps to $28.71 an hour after the first 40 hours worked in a week, per the sanitation department’s website.

Are people really shitting on the buses in LaLaLand? Holy Crap, Batman!

The California Post (New York Post's first cousin out there) nailed it when they said 'Talk about a stinker!' Los Angeles Department of Transportation has been forced to scrap a video campaign begging passengers not to poop on city buses. Officials pulled the six clips from YouTube and its website, claiming they were never supposed to be made public. A link to the originals now reads: “This channel doesn’t have any content.”

An LADOT spokesman told California Post: “The videos were not intended for viewing on the website and have been removed from the webpage. “The ‘See Something, Do Something’ videos are intended for on-board viewing to inform riders how to report ‘crappy’ behavior or negative experiences.”

 

The ”See Something, Do Something” campaign videos had reminded passengers to buy a ticket, don’t smoke, drink… or ”poop” on the bus. It was housed on a standalone LADOT YouTube channel created last August and was not widely promoted across the agency’s other social media platforms.

How long the spots were running on buses remains unclear. Other videos in the series included a “no drinking” ad featuring an over-served character and a “pay your fare” message.

Passengers said the ad ran continuously on loop, turning already tiresome trips into an ordeal, as they were bombarded with a never-ending video about suitable bodily function and rule-breaking.

The last of the greatest survivors is gone. May he rest in peace with his crew mates forever...

The watch has ended, and history grows quieter. At 102, Jessie Alton Mahaffey, the last living survivor of the USS Oklahoma, has crossed the final horizon, leaving behind the final human voice of that shattered morning at Pearl Harbor. On December 7, 1941, the Oklahoma rolled beneath a burning sky. Trapped steel became a tomb for 429 sailors. Jessie, then only a young man, fought through darkness and flooding, clawing his way to air while the sea claimed his brothers. He did not escape alone, he carried them with him for the rest of his life.

Fate was relentless. Months later, the ocean tested him again with the sinking of the USS Northampton. Twice claimed by war. Twice returned. A survivor marked not by luck, but by an unbreakable will and a lifelong burden of remembrance.

For more than eight decades, Jessie stood as a living memorial, bearing witness so the fallen would never fade into silence. Now, his long duty is complete.

I know some of you don't like the idea of an

American Flag made in China, but the reality

is a lot of our readers just can not afford to pay

30 or 35 bucks for a flag made here. That is

the only reason I allow this ad to appear - to

present a flag that's affordable to everyone.

This is a big deal for me. My Dad died (of a massive heart attack) having suffered with Alzheimers for the last couple years of his life. It was horrible to witness. Alzheimers does have a genetic link, so of course I'm concerned...

After decades of rising intelligence and academic achievement, new data show stagnation and even decline in students everywhere.

Are we raising a dumber generation? IQ scores are falling worldwide. Smartphones and artificial intelligence are altering how children focus, read and think. Can schools adapt in time?

This spectacular building in Paris is actually a private residence. Designed by architect Jules Lavirotte, it is a renowned example of Art Nouveau architecture. 

The building was constructed between 1899 and 1901. Without getting in to details here, if this is the kinda shit that gets you excited like it does me, do a google image search on the pic and you'll find all the info you'll want. It is pretty spectacular, though, isn't it?

 New Jersey Democratic lawmakers have introduced a sweeping and deliberately bold-named proposal - the “Fight Unlawful Conduct and Keep Individuals and Communities Empowered (F.U.C.K. I.C.E.) Act” - aimed at curbing what they describe as unconstitutional or abusive enforcement practices by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The measure would allow individuals to bring civil actions in state court for violations of constitutional rights related to immigration enforcement activities. Sponsors say the bill was written in direct response to recent ICE operations in North Jersey and along the Hudson County border that lawmakers claim targeted immigrants indiscriminately and 'created fear in local communities'.

Assemblyman Ravi Bhalla (that's him below), one of the prime sponsors, said the act “sends a clear message that New Jersey will not stand idly by while federal agents violate residents’ civil liberties under the guise of immigration enforcement.”

Yeah - I want a guy who looks like him to craft the bills that control my life.

What's your 'best time'?

Where does your state rank against the rest of the world? You'd be surprised...

 

19 U.S. states rank among the world’s 50 largest economies in 2025. California ($4.30T) is now the world’s 4th-largest economy, ahead of Japan and India. Texas ($2.94T) is larger than Italy and Russia; Florida’s economy is bigger than Australia’s. The U.S. has the world’s largest economy at $30.6 trillion. But if you break it apart, individual states would rank among the world’s economic superpowers.

In 2025, 19 U.S. states place within the top 50 largest economies globally, according to IMF projections and U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) data. California alone, with a $4.30 trillion economy, now ranks fourth in the world, ahead of Japan and India. Texas and New York also outperform entire G7 nations.

Those anti-ICE protests kids are such scamps (my word for jerkoffs)...

A video of students wreaking havoc Wednesday in a Cincinnati Kroger after walking out of school for a purported anti-ICE demonstration has gone viral. In the video, taken by McAdrian Martin, who was shopping at the time of the incident, students ran through aisles and threw objects at the store’s ceiling. Martin said they were beer cans and other adult beverages that had been ripped from the shelves. A security yelled at the students to get out of the store.

 

You may notice the same thing I did. “It said, ‘F ICE,'” a female patron told Martin in the video, apparently referring to a sign held by one of the protesters. “They just came over here and went to the beer section and threw the beers all over the store.” The students walked out of schools in the North College Hill School City School District to protest ICE, part of an ongoing national trend that left-wing activists claim is student-driven.

Wanna save on eats? Walmart is not your best option...

There are plenty of ways to save money on groceries, from comparing the cost per unit on similar items to shopping local. Still, it’s not a bad idea to stick to grocery chains that have been proven to have lower prices to begin with. After all, a little bit of savings every time you grocery shop can add up to big amounts over time.

Costco groceries averaged 21.4% less than Walmart in the Consumer Reports study. Aldi and Lidl were about 8% cheaper than Walmart, with WinCo and H-E-B close behind. Whole Foods was nearly 40% more expensive than Walmart, the study found.

So which grocery retailer is the cheapest in the country, compared to Walmart’s prices? The surprising answer is Costco. The study showed that groceries at Costco cost 21.4% less than Walmart on average, with another warehouse club, BJ’s Wholesale Club, coming in at a close second with prices 21% cheaper than Walmart.

Lidl and Aldi are both about 8% cheaper than Walmart and both are great for basics. Aldi fans love visiting the store to stock up on things like butter, olive oil, cheese, coffee and pasture-raised eggs. It’s also a great time to check out Lidl, if you have one nearby. I've never seen one here in the States, but they're everywhere in Europe and the UK.

 

The priciest grocery chain, according to the study, is Whole Foods, which comes in at nearly 40% more expensive than Walmart. Beloved grocery chains like Trader Joe’s and Publix can be expensive if you don't pay attention.
