They say that in 1 dimension of space you can move along a line. But in the 1 dimension of time, can we move forward and back? Not at all, it's not even a line, it's a point that vibrates.

An unbelivable partnership. Kevin Clash and Elmo. I just learned this now.

The phrase "adult content" is hilarious. It's sort of a code word used for children, when in fact it's just sex. But that's fine, it's a sex filter. Good, not here to get off. Apparently they also have a "Politics" filter as well, but I'm not gonna flip that switch.

A major Dem blunder was, in this era of "identity politics" to not showcase real people, but rather spokesholes like actors, themselves nothing but "identities" with very little substance. Where are the union leaders, on the ground activists, and other real people?

Apparently in a ranking of trustworthy news channels, "The Weather Channel" is number 1. That's funny, cause they are wrong all the time, but... as far a weather goes, I guess they are using best practices.

I'm a little confused by articles like this. Perhaps we should have unisex sports? For things like running (where the men will always win), you can still break things down, by the gender you identify as. It wouldn't be such a big deal if its unisex to start.

I've watched a few interviews Carson did, like with Bobby Fischer. He's surprisingly affable and nice. Theres a little too much effort devoted to tearing down people, like with Ellen Degenneras and James Corden, they were just ride in private...

Johnny Carson and the Fantasy of America
The late-night host looms over the culture to this day, in part because he knew how to mix comedy and sex. But there was a darkness at the heart of his appeal.
