  • “This show is just garbage.”

    I mean my son was watching some YouTube garbage. I get the appeal of things like Vlad and Nicki or The Diana Show, kids playing with an obscene amount of toys, but this was just tween nonsense of getting hit in the groin, fart jokes, ball jokes, body shaming, a bit of racism, destroying stuff without regard for safety precautions (I’m pretty sure there were no adults present), foul language (I’m not a never-say-swear-words parent but saying one every 30 seconds is excessive), and mild sexual humor. Be careful about letting your kids watch YouTube either on their own or without being signed in.

















  • Exactly, which is why he should say “Fuck it!” abuse his power to the n-th degree to save American democracy and then face the consequences.

    If I’m Biden I’d have a bill introduce to reform SCOTUS, Presidential powers, campaign finance, election administration, and more and say, “I expect this on my desk in a weeks time. I fear for the safety of our nation and our elected leaders if these issues go unaddressed.”

    Then if a week goes by and no bill is ready to sign, two Representatives and two Senators (two Rs and two Ds) go missing. Another week? Another four go missing. This can easily repeat for 12 weeks before a majority of the Senate goes missing. Then, perhaps, some family members of the remaining legislators go missing. 🤷

    Unprecedented times require unprecedented acts.
