Things Hollywood can never make look convincing, no matter how high the budget is: old family photos, placards at protests.

Whoever first came up with "Blunder Woman" for Kristi Noem deserves a raise.

It's so on brand that the dinner celebrating Trump's $148 million clown coin scam looked like a TV meal.

I may be preaching in the desert, but I'll never stop encouraging fiction writers to use 3D, especially where action scenes are concerned. :)

That's the spirit!

In Unrelated this week I need to work on THE COUNT (but global news anxiety is preying on me...)

I'm happy to be back to something that might appeal to a mixed audience.

You're almost there, Donald! A little more effort, and you will have evaporated 20% of the US stock market since taking office... 3 months ago. Win, win, win!

And, still regarding the NASDAQ debacle, it may comfort Trump voters that while their 401Ks are going down the drain, he and his cronies likely shorted those stocks before announcing tariffs and are getting richer by the second.

1 year of NASDAQ with the agent orange.
Feb 20, the day the collapse begins, was when he turned on Zelensky and claimed Ukraine had started the war, in a show of subservience to Putin. That same day he also repeated Canada would soon be the 51st state, and that tariffs would bring "lots of money."

THE PLOT AGAINST THE KING, by Kash Patel, is a prime example of possibly relying on bot farms to manipulate Amazon ratings: look at the massive difference in rating (4.7 vs 2.6) and the number of reviews between Amazon and Goodreads. You will rarely see such a massive discrepancy...

This. Never mind that he keeps backtracking on almost every decision he announces; he's destroyed the brand either until he leaves or permanently if he doesn't.

What's up with the surge of advertorials for BYD on CNN? That's half a dozen since February, and two days in a row, now.

Throwback to that time when a friend gave us some of his cat's hair for our naked rat, and this happened.
