No one is paying attention to Trump. Couple of girls in the front row seem to be laughing at everything but from row 2 back, they look like they got paid to be there.

My son's garage band is playing tonight. Their first gig in Seattle. He wrote the songs, and arranged them. This isn't Jazz. He was a rock drummer first, and still loves punk, grunge, rock music. The band has no name yet. They only have 5 songs and been together for a month. Give it a listen.

It ain't shit. Only applies to Part B Rx coverage Of the ~71 million Medicare enrollees, 51 million are in Medicare Advantage (including medical+RX and standalone Rx) plans and only 20 million in Part B plans. $90 covers less than a half-month Part B premium payment.

Fox News complains about fat sex workers, MAGA claims Nixon got framed by the deep state, and Dear Leader spews a lot of stupid shit. thank you for your attention to 'this week in stupid,' my every-Saturday wrap-up of the dumbest fucking idiocy that happened. link is here: bit.ly/4hZzS6C
Folks, it’s a well-known fact that New York City has become an unlivable hell-hole ever since that Islamomarxistfascistcommunoterrorist, Zohran Mamdani, took over as Mayor. But let me tell you — you have no idea just how fucking deep the rot goes.

Let’s listen in as the giggling idiots on Fox’s The Five make their case.

Greg Gutfeld: ‘It’s something that a lot of people aren’t talking about in terms of quality of life issues, and I don’t know if you have photos of what’s going on in that area, but, uh, how overweight the hookers have become. Have you noticed that?’

Jesse Watters: ‘I have.’

Gutfeld: ‘It’s insane.’

I have to confess, I didn’t notice. It’s not really my thing, so I’ll have to defer to the obviously extensive expertise of horndogs like Gutfield and Watters.

NITHYA RAMAN’S YEARS IN CHARGE Raman blames Karen Bass for LA’s homelessness crisis. But Raman was chairing the City Council’s homelessness committee before Bass became mayor. She’s had YEARS. If she had the answers, why didn’t she fix it then? She wants us to believe becoming mayor changes that?

The good thing about a jet-propelled UAV is that it has enough heat signature that it can be downed with a wire-guided or heat-seeking, shoulder-fired, very portable missile, the same as Ukraine used to eliminate jet and helicopter attacks early in Russia's invasion.

A few Democrats have bashed Canadian-built products for political gain. An American manufacturer (Navistar/International) just closed its historic Dayton, Ohio, plant, and a Canadian company (Roshel) bought the plant and intends to repurpose it for building armored vehicles.

Democrats caved and/or facilitated this monopolization of practically every major media property in the US into the hands of a MAGA fascist psychopath. If the US had an opposition party, each of its presidential contenders would would vow to dissolve this monopoly by any means necessary.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."
