Post: When journalistic integrity is worth less than keeping your mouth shut and your paycheck coming. Fact-checking is impossible when Stephen Miller gets his Resting Big Lie Face going. His eyes show he’s only listening to the hamster wheel in his head that spits out talking points. Meanwhile, I’m looking forward to working in a sweatshop making Trump merch. The look on Fox host Martha MacCallum’s face is priceless. Link: Stephen Miller Is Delighted Your Retirement Fund Is Tanking
Post: About a year ago, I picked up this useful little folding ergonomic Bluetooth keyboard, the Seenda KTU-403. But it’s apparently been discontinued, and some of the multifunction keys are starting to spit out weird characters. Fortunately, I’ve stumbled on to some weird key combos so that I can keep using them – they aeem to have different emulator settings or something. Meanwhile, can’t find the manual, scuffled into a drawer or online. Fortunately, after searching for the model number, the manual for a very similar product popped up, probably made by the same manufacture under another marque. So hokay,…

“Transportation officials are reviewing local infrastructure funding as the administration leans into fossil fuels.”
Why can’t we have nice reality? Why do conspiracy theories never die? And why is “the liberal media” not very liberal, and mostly corporate?

Post: Do political ads really influence elections? Don’t most voters tune them out? Or do yard signs and radio/tv ads actually have impact? In Wisconsin, political parties can steer unlimited amounts to candidates. State Sen. Jeff Smith, a Democrat and a minority leader, called the spending frenzy “obscene.” “There’s no reason why campaigns should cost as much as they do,” he said.
