    Nobody Cares: PRS

    I realize that article was written for a trade publication, but even so that is one of the most outstanding examples of impenetrable jargon I've seen in some time. The phrase "focused on contextual and geographical targeting for programmatic guaranteed and private marketplace deals" would...

    #JAILTOTHECHIEF- Shit Just Got Real

    He (or the quoted article) says that America "as we have known it" will vanish. From the point of view of anyone included in that 'we', he's right. It already has, and it's not coming back. Welcome to the future.

    Nobody Cares about Music (remix)

    I wish the audio for this had been from the mp3 instead of recorded live in an invisible sandstorm, but I love everything else about this story. Once again the BBC's link shows up here with only the clip, not the story. To read the short article try www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-46861137 I...

    Missing WI Girl Found Alive After 3 Months

    I just read a blip on that story about an hour ago. Not a lot of details but from what I read it seems to me that is going to be a really ugly and depressing story.

    I guess it's fitting, given the date, that we get someone who is as full of crap as a Christmas turkey.

    Yeah, but you can't blame this one on the "R's" as an entity. This one's 100% on Donald Jagoff Trump, who was so upset by rightwing talkshow people (his usual fawning advocates) saying unkind things about him that he threw a tantrum and overturned his own decision.

    WTF Sh*t's F*cked Up and Bullsh*t - a "Who Cares" thread for news

    Good comments on that thread. My favorite was slightly aside but still on topic, at least superficially: "Nice to see Theresa May getting into the spirit big time by sacrificing the whole country this winter"

    #JAILTOTHECHIEF- Shit Just Got Real

    I'm not sure what you meant by media not equal to Fox, Dakota, but Trump's big boosters (including at least one Fox commenter) were really crawling his frame about this early today. A quote from a BBC article (Trump supporters angry at wall 'retreat'): Mr Trump's champions in the media are...

    Another nail getting the hammer: New York's AG is officially closing the Trump Foundation down and distributing what funds remain to suitable charities. The legal cases against Trump et al will continue unabated. Trump's troubled foundation to shut down

    Nobody Cares: PRS

    Putin has apparently decided that the only solution to the problem of degenerate rap music poisoning young Russian''s minds is for the State to take over the whole operation. That is truly a concept I am unable to get my head around. www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-46584554 I did enjoy a quote...

    #JAILTOTHECHIEF- Shit Just Got Real

    I've got schadenfreude coming out of my ears reading all these stories, and I don't care who knows it. Now what I really want is for someone to do a really lowdown blues song with every stanza or at least the chorus ending, "in the Southern District of New York". ETA: I did one pretty crappy...

    My favorite response from the thread: "I wonder if the NRA will tell the Justice Department to stay in their lane."

    Milo is making a comeback!

    Of Milo's contretemps with the people trying to put this Australian gig together, she writes, " The Australian promoters have finally pulled the plug on it, breaking cover this week to speak to Australian reporters. “It’s been the worst six months of my life,” one of them told a TV news...

    Sanders Considering 2020 Run

    Lock, stock, and two smoking barrels. Only they never really got it; the Greeks had it going on. Those stiff-ass Romans could never really fit in.
