As of 10-25-2025, I had to login with Gmail (with 2-step verify) to watch YOUTUBE on a PC desktop. My smart-TV allowed viewing sans login, but only after jumping through a few hoops. Is YouTube going login-only? Next paid only? What's going on over there?

When Representative #MadeleineDean (D-PA) this week told House Speaker #MikeJohnson (R-LA) that people will lose healthcare because of cuts to ACA subsidies, he responded: "Good." — Good? Are you kidding me?

Oklahoma Governor Stitt craved MAGA attention, so he's now rounding up homeless people with the threat of jail. This loud and proud Christian appears to have forgotten the old adage: What would Jesus do? -- Certainly not this. www.koco.com/article/kevi...

Let's be clear: The Pentagon cannot be renamed without an act of Congress. Right now there is no such legal thing as the "Department of War." This stunt makes DUMB AND DUMBER look like a tale of two rocket scientists.

A-I company #Anthropic has been found liable for illegally downloading and manipulating 500,000 (half a billion) ebooks. I'm afraid to look, but they probably stole mine, too. www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...
AI company Anthropic agrees to pay $1.5B to settle lawsuit with authors
If approved, the settlement would be the largest in the history of American copyright cases, according to a lawyer for the authors behind the lawsuit.

Let's be honest: Tariffs are taxes on US citizens. They are meant to help close the budget gap created by the B3 funding bill, which all reputable economists predict will add trillions to the deficit.

The #IndianRemovalAct of 1830 allowed the US government to relocate tens of thousands of #NativeAmericans, killing thousands in those merciless, brutal military campaigns. It happened before. It can happen again.

OK Education Czar #RyanWalters now to issue MAGA loyalty tests to school teachers. Nope. Not a joke. It's real. Yet another reason to leave Oklahoma, which is now 50th in--everything. [sigh] apnews.com/article/okla...

Avoid corporate platforms by doing websites and blogs yourself. You just need a domain hosting service that supports free #WordPress.org builds and basic #HTML-5 websites, and the means to create custom graphics for web use. One such affordable service is #Namecheap, but there are others.
Blog Tool, Publishing Platform, and CMS - WordPress.org
Open source software which you can use to easily create a beautiful website, blog, or app.

This article made me physically ill. I will watch #Colbert, until they yank him from the air. But I'm done now with #CBS, #Paramount, and #Skydance. This is just wrong. www.nbcnews.com/business/med...
Paramount bidder Skydance vows to end DEI policies and create CBS News ombudsman
Skydance made the commitments in a pair of filings to the Federal Communications Commission, the agency that regulates the media and telecommunications industry.

FYI, the cost of printed books is going up 5%+ with almost every major POD (print-on-demand) provider. Please don't yell at authors for book price increases. It's not their fault.

For those who have never studied the basic principles of governing, here is a visual primer. Got it? It's dirt simple. Use the correct political terms. And correct those who do not.
