'No news is good news' and other falsehoods...

 Why do news outlets tell you about shit that happens to people you never heard of? 
 

I havta believe the only reason I'd ever want to or have to learn about shit like this is that somehow digesting that gruesome shit will make me feel better about my own miserable existence. 
That sound about right to you?

Anybody have any idea WTF this guy was talking about?
... 

 
Not a single mention anywhere in the media yesterday about this. In this photo taken on Feb. 23, 1945, U.S. Marines of the 28th Regiment, 5th Division, raise a U.S. flag atop Mount Suribachi on the Japanese-controlled island of Iwo Jima. Strategically located 660 miles from Tokyo, the Pacific island became the site of one of the bloodiest, most famous battles of World War II against Japan.

Florida lawmakers are sending a bill to Gov. Ron DeSantis that stops 
motorists from cruising down the left lanes of the state’s highways. HB 317 was passed unanimously by the Florida Senate Thursday, and the House had already passed the bill 113-3 last week, so now the only thing left is for the governor to sign the bill into law.
The bill would ban driving in the farthest left lane on a road with two or more lanes and a posted speed limit of at least 65 miles per hour. The drivers would be allowed in that lane if they are passing another vehicle, entering an HOV lane, or preparing to make a left turn. Those “left-lane campers” could receive a moving violation leading to a fine of up to $158.

 President Joe Biden’s approval rating fell to 38% in February just one percentage point away from his all-time low, according to the latest Gallup poll released Friday.
... 

I actually do remember when the syrup came in those little cans. 
Does that make me a dinosaur?
... 

And then one of the girls in the back row said 'I don't believe you - let us see it for ourselves'. So I showed them. And happy hour has never been the same again...
... 

And they say conservatives are hateful people...
... 

... 

What would happen if Trump said or did half of 
what this fumbling fuckup does on a daily basis?

  4. Roaches gather at swimming pools during the summer. He became a roach that day. As he discovered he liked kids squirming in his lap. His new life long goal of being a pedophile began that day..

  7. That's a picture of the 2nd flag raising. The first one had a photographer but it wasn't heroic enough hence the famous one.

  9. I look at the news about things like that Missouri house fire, and think about these urban planners who want to cram us into urban areas with people like that and thank heaven I am old.

  10. Greetings from England. The raising of the flag of the USA on Iwo Jima on 23Feb1945 was remembered here on its anniversary and its photo published by Blond Money, to whose emails I subscribe. (And yes, she's blond. Also, she's bright.)
