Boy, ain't that the truth...

If I was having kids - which I ain't at this point - I wouldn't let 'em anywhere near any social media bullshit until they were at least old enough to quote PI to the 20th decimal. I wonder who came up with that name, too. It's more like sociopath media if ya ask me...

I don't quite get this one. I haven't heard anything about food stamps being cut, and I thought they were considered 'entitlements', anyway. I think I'm 'entitled' to get some free shit too, but I'd have to be starving to ever wanna use one of them in public. Juss' sayin'...

In this somewhat iconic photo entitled 'Candy Cigarette' from 1989, Photographer Sally Mann's eldest daughter Jessie stares defiantly at the camera and her mother, with tousled hair and a cigarette made of bubblegum. While Mann's work has consistently come under public scrutiny for its intimate subject matter, at the root of the work is a family album filled with the stories, memories and moments that define Mann as a mother and photographer. 
I never noticed the person on stilts in the background and have never heard mention of it anywhere before. Hmmm...

I coulda swore there'd be world peace by now, wouldn't you?

It's a pretty safe bet newspapers will only be a notation in the history 
books within the next ten years or so. Reports indicate that people under the age of 35 get the majority of their news from social media and influencers. Influencers ferfucksake - think about that for a minute...
...   

That's subtle. I like that...

And pardon my ignorance for asking, but aren't most American Jews liberal? This has always perplexed me. I woulda thought people who were as persecuted as the Jews throughout history would tend to be more conservative that they appear to be. Interesting...

  1. I admire genius in advertising. I must bow and say "We're not worthy!" to the dude who switched the context of dumping a giant old ship in the ocean like trash into "creating an artificial reef to benefit nature." Here's to YOU, "Man of Genius."

    1. Not much else can be done with it. It would cost more to cut it up and recycle the iron than it would pay. Just like the worn tires on your car, it's a problem without a good solution.

    3. It used to be common practice to sell a ship like that for scrap in the far east, fully insure it, and have it mysteriously sink near Hawaii. Happened to the S.S. Constitution, the ship that took Grace Kelly to her wedding in Moraco. Same ship an Affair to Remember was filmed on with Carey Grant and Deborah Karr.

  2. I believe the food stamp cartoon is in response to the dept. of agriculture cutting off food stamps for illegals,at least they say they are going to,time will tell.

    You don't feed the pigeons they move on......,just saying.

    1. New government leadership is also looking at means to limit food stamps / SNAP, prohibiting purchases of processed foods, soda, candy, etc.

  3. There's no way to fire that FBI agent hard enough, though a public hanging comes close.
    And I think there are no more food stamps; just a debit card that refreshes every month, so there's no embarrassment for the purchaser and less aggravation for the cashier.

  4. My healthcare worker is trying to survive on $800 a month and gets a food allowance that she has to beg for.. They didn't get the $22 min wage newscum gave to last food workers. She is white and a natural born citizen, the worst thing you can be in California.

  5. Yes, we certainly wouldn't want to embarass the person using the EBT card to buy lobster, steak and crab legs ( all of which I've personally seen ) which the taxpayers who actually pay for the card can't afford for themselves .
