Keanu Reeves is a national treasure. Kind of like Tom Hanks, but with more charisma and less talent. That being said, despite John Wick being one of the best … quadrilogies? near quintilogies? out there, still lack the desire to watch it. Saw the first one, most of the second, and likely will not see …
Point:Missed / Target:Lost / Objective:Failed
Somewhat of a fan of Matt Walsh, a total troll but good for the interesting. Saw a reaction video of his (thanks, Tubes of You) whereby he felt outraged and righteous indignation at a subreddit “r/regretfulparents.” MattyDub basically concluded that the forum should not exist, that people choose to be happy or unhappy, and that …

Speedbumps
Wow. Way to start the year with a bang. And a thump. New Year’s in New Orleans. Welcome to 2025. So rumor has it that ISIS (or “ISIS-inspired”?) decided to strike at the heart of debauched celebration …“Show us your … beads.” Although getting oneself merc’d by the cops sans manifesto seems a bit self-defeating. …
So Good to be So Right
2024. Over already. Good. This has been one colostomy-bag filled year. Met a face-tatted, poo-flinging monkey who completely derailed $$$ plans for the year, BUT but put a new roof on the home of the Elder, so the FDOs could have a solid covering. There is that. Had $11K (yes that is thousand) in vehicle …
Death Be Coming
Now she is pretty good. Color me impressed. The impending demise of the ‘Murrican FaceTik/InstaTok is looming, and folks have feelings. Personally, never really traversed that peculiar social media minefield. Don’t do much of any of that, really. Liking the Tubes of You, ‘cept for the ads … oh so many ads … OK so quicktake—the …
Brilliant Shrike
Still gnawing away at Mr. Ellison’s anthology, and oh my goodness is he good. “Mefisto in Onyx” is easily one of the best shortish stories methinks meeyes have ever glazed. Truly good. And it’s obvious no wonder why not more popular. Brown eyes outcrafting blue is not a popular trope. Not here. Not ever. Language is …
Overreach Much, or Way to Show That Hand
My guy Luigi might get the needle. How much poetic irony can we stand. Seriously. Murder as an act of terrorism? Really? Gunning down schoolkids with an AK is just Tuesday in ‘Murrica, but lying in wait and shooting a corporate gang leader with bodycount in the thousands is somehow a threat to public safety. …

Notes on a Scandal
Well isn’t that interesting. Lookie see, lookie here. Seems our venerated villain had a bit of a stock irregularity when it came to his employer. Seems a bit of fraud and insider trading (to the smooth tune of $15M) on UnHealth stock may have caught the eye of the Effa-Bee-Aiyee, as he sold his stock …
“Pretty Maggie MoneyEyes” … Hey Harlan!
There is a young woman from South Carolina who blinded herself by wrenching her eyes from her head during a methfit … thought she needed to do that to, dunno, save / somebody / and apparently it took seven other adults to hold her down in the ER. Just say no, indeed. To her credit …

Killing Elephants
Was this many years old when theKid informed that approx. 55 elephants are killed everyday by poachers. For their tusks. For trinkets, baubles, and doodads. And piano keys. Loving that ivory sheen. Back in 1903 an elephant – Topsy, dear ol’ Topsy – was considered “recalcitrant” after having injured several horsemen (including her handlers and …
