I'm shocked to learn that there was a 1975 radio show based on the Marvel comic book The Fantastic Four, and it featured a 25-year-old Bill Murray as Johnny Storm / The Human Torch. This was before Murray was a Saturday Night Live cast member. — Read the rest The post Thrill...

The Republican National Committee deserves everything they get after cowering to 91-times indicted Donald Trump, allowing him to install Lara Trump as the new RNC co-chair (along with newly Trump-picked co-chair Michael Whatley). But I didn't expect the grand ol' party's...

I use a travel-size USB-chargeable white noise machine to help me sleep. One odd thing about using it is that I often hear phantom music. Sometimes it's a reggae song, other times a rock guitar solo, a children's song, or a commercial jingle. — Read the rest The post I hear...

Of the piles of vile and/or idiotic word garbage that have spewed out of DJ Trump since 2015, I have probably only agreed with him once or twice. We are certainly in sync when he says that Ron DeSantis has 'no personality. — Read the rest The post Trump's Tiktok tantrum...

No bar is too low for a MAGA leader, which is proven once again as Gov. Kristi Noem peddles dental work in a cheesy infomercial. Selling cosmetic dentistry on behalf of Smile Texas, a dental group in the Lone Star State, Noem babbles on for more than four minutes about how...
