There has been a lot of recent debate on allowing Trans-Women to play in Women's sports. Most of the debate has been boring. But one point that is rarely raised is that biological women have a lot of barriers to training for elite levels in sports - not the least of which is that their bodies change drastically as they age, during the menstrual cycle and as a result of pregnancy. Trans-women get to avoid these issues and that is a strong argument to me why they should not be allowed to compete i...

One of the major arguments for banning of assault rifles is that they are not useful for hunting are designed to kill people....but that is exactly the kind of weapon that is protected by the second amendment. There is not a constitutional right to hunt animals, but there is a right to kill humans who want to impinge on your rights. Guns suck but people are worse. Also, what is your favorite Nickleback song? Or...can you name a Nickleback song? #FuckProhibition

You are more likely to die from suicide than be murdered. Why don't we discuss this more? Because it is impolite I guess but that is what I do best....be impolite. The statistics on suicide are enlightening and frightening. Also, What the fuck is happening in Lesotho? #TeamDaphne

CNN and Fox News headlines about February inflation numbers seem to be in direct conflict. Well, they chose different numbers and so they are both right and both pieces of shit. In this case, Fox chose the more reasonable straight-forward numbers and CNN chose convoluted numbers I still don't understand. But they made the opposite choices during the Trump presidency because they are manipulative bitches. Also, don't try an impromptu Julie Andrews impression while drinking tequila. #SchoolhouseRo...

There are some movies that present themselves as commentaries on the historical problem of white colonization that actually backfire and seem to glorify white men. These movies often have white saviors and I think they are made to allow white people to feel good about their current moral outrage than to really tackle the issues involved. I am not trying to race-bait here, I just think it is funny how hypocritical the morons are who write these movies. Also, the word shlub isn't used enough...I c...

"All Quiet On The Western Front" is another in a log line of movies showing us the horrors of war at the level of the individual soldier. We love these kinds of movies! They allow us to feel compassion and righteous anger about the meaningless nature of warfare.....until it is time for us to support sending more bullets and tanks and drones to Ukraine. I hope that we can repress our memories of supporting this war by the time the Ukranian war version of this movie is made. Also, Yes I know Geeze...

There is a lot of discussion of the "whitewashing" of history in American schools but that hasn't been my experience. Most Americans don't know shit about American or world history - but they all know about slavery, Jim Crow Laws and segregation....even if they can't name more than 3 presidents. More history lessons is not the answer to racial divides. We could start having better dialogues if we get rid of the useless virtue signaling that goes along with Black History Month. #CrispyButtocks...

I am a prolific crier. But what purpose does crying serve? It appears to be a universal human activity that is specifically human...but it is difficult to come up with a compelling evolutionary explanation for its ubiquity. Interesting....or maybe I am just trying to divert attention from me being a bitch. Also, Fuck you Tom Brady. #Mr.Kitty

The Star Spangled Banner is an awful national anthem for the US. it is a mediocre poem put to a tune ripped off from a British song-writer. It is time for an update that really reflects who we are and what we ant to sing at sporting events. Bring on the American Hair Bands! Also, did you realize the band Cinderella was a Philly band? I always thought they were from Europe. #PunctuationRules

Everyone distrusts the news media today....but we never really did and that is a good thing. The evil media mogul distorting our thoughts is even more time-honored than the evil scientist (though Fauci is bringing it back with a vengeance). What we need is fewer fact checkers and more open debate. Bring me a Tucker Carlson - Anderson Cooper Cage Match!! #SoLongStelter

Ronald Dion DeSantis was king of the world during the pandemic....but he has become another brain-dead politician in the aftermath. There is no such thing as a conscientious conservative anymore.

Recent viral videos of children at Drag shows has resulted in a cultural war issue. I agree. Get kids out of Drag shows....because it is ruining the joy of Drag.

The DMZ is one of the most demeaning and depressing experiences in existence. It is the best argument against allowing the government to run any service. Also, we should have red flag laws to rescind driver's Licenses #PrimusSucks

Humans cannot understand probabilities and real data and instead rely on their own brain and experience. Note the recent suggestions that mass shooters are overwhelmingly white and that these shooters should be caught ahead of time because they so clearly fit the description. This kind of post hoc and non-data driven crap reinforces itself and becomes doctrine. This is the definition of Fake News. Also, what is the half-life of memory for mass-shootings? 3 months? #WaukashaParadeShooting...

My local school district tried to mandate see-through backpacks for kids in middle and high school. This is another example of inefficient and potentially dangerous mandates in the name of safety. But all of these mandates make us feel less safe and anxious. Also, the TSA needs to pack up their crap in a small appropriate sized plastic bag and go away. #PeopleIdentifyingAsMaleSansChapeau

All of the responses to the overturning of Roe v Wade have been superficial and annoying. The fact is that the abortion laws in the United States will look more like the patchwork of laws in the European Union and in some states will be far less restrictive. But that doesn't stop morons like Emmanuel Macron and Billie Joe Holiday from taking shots at the ol' US of A. Also, I decided on a Beatles reference for the title over a much more graphic one from the Sex Pistols. #Bodies

A quick sampling of TV commercials (or commercials on YouTube) demonstrates that minorities and especially blacks are well represented. And by "well" I actually mean over represented. The demographics of commercials do not reflect the demographics of our country. This is not Wokeism in the country run AMOK but a sign that we aren't really as racist as we are often painted. Also, it is a sign businesses love rich white people. #MovingOnUp

The unanimity of the voices supporting a continuing war in Ukraine is deafening. What happened to the peaceniks and the MAGA isolationists? They apparently have been won over by CNN, Fox and the questionably sexy Zelenskyyii+. Also, why is the Depp-Heard trial off this week so that I have to be exposed to more war coverage? #69

The impending overturn of Roe v. Wade has resulted in a lot of noise and not much rational discussion. Whether people are pro or anti abortion rights (or like most people are in between), they seem to misunderstand what the Roe v. Wade decision actually was about, how it relates to abortion restrictions in other countries, and how federal government is structured. A few fun facts are presented to enlighten or simply to outrage. Also, this episode doesn't have nearly enough comedy or lighthearted...

Yes, the war in Ukraine dominates the news media every night but the most important event of 2022 in the future is Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars. We will recall it on our death beds. There is nothing wrong with that. Morally ambiguous events that everyone witnesses are important for defining our moral and intellectual foundations. Wars are commonplace....Oscar Bitch Slaps are once in a lifetime. Also, the fact that the Kardashian Dad was a lawyer for OJ suggests that God has a won...

Russia Sucks and war sucks. But the response of Americans has been shockingly hawkish. There is no real nuance in the discussion of the causes and results of the war in Ukraine. Time to put this all into perspective....or just send in Tom Cruise, The Rock, and Arnold to clean up the mess. Also, credit goes to Lauren for the McDonald's riff. #BradleyCopperSucks

We were all subjected to the "Fact Versus Opinion" lesson in school. However, this lesson was meaningless because all stated facts are expressions of opinions and no stated facts can be considered unassailable. Worse, this dumb distinction dismisses most types of true discussion because we aren't allowed to debate someone's opinion. Also, some people without assholes retain the right to have opinions. #BTSsucks

The history of the world has demonstrated that groups with negligible differences can hate each other and cause death and misery. This is a result of our evolved tendency to positively evaluate those who belong to the same groups as us and negatively value people outside our groups. Unfortunately, this evolved trait works even when the groups are clearly arbitrary. This allows us to be rabid sports fans but also vengeful political partisans. Also, the Chicago Bears and their fans are despicable ...

People use a lot of common phrases without thinking and as a result say some pretty illogical and stupid things. But the one of the worst common phrases is the supposed definition of Insanity often attributed to Einstein. The fact that this quote is consciously repeated with pride and no reflection is as good of an indication as any that we are unthinking creatures who mostly sniff the smells on our fingers. Also, why is Judas Priest Not In The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? #ICouldCareLess...

The reactions to the Rittenhouse verdict are saddening. The right tries to make this mediocre human into a hero and the left decries him as a vicious villain. It is disgusting to see people upset that he was not sacrificed so that we could show that the criminal justice system works against everyone equally. Also, let's build a wall between Wisconsin and Illinois and make Illinois pay for it! #NYGiantsSuck

Politics are as funny and illogical as ever. Democrats decry higher gas prices despite the benefit it could have for climate change. Republicans bemoan higher labor costs despite being the result of a free market system that has become more free.

Jury duty is awful. Why not have a professional jury class make these decisions instead of dragging locals in to do this? A very good reason is that locals know the culture and context of a defendant and are better judges of what is odd or questionable behavior. Kyle Rittenhouse is a pretty typical Midwestern male teenager, but he is being judged in the media by people who often grew up as privileged East Coast pricks. Their hypocrisy is mind-numbing. Also, who the fuck let Michael Vick back int...

Vaccines are amazing....but moronic rules by the NFL and government mandates are completely irrational. Aaron Rodgers finally addressed his reasoning for not being vaccinated. He said many dumb things but he also said a lot of thoughtful things. Because the discussion IS complex and contextual and important. Unfortunately, his response will be tarred and feathered and edited for the benefit of both intellectually-empty sides of the debate. Too bad, this could have been a good discussion. Now, gi...
