Judging by the press coverage and social media, you’d think that the only war fought in the last two months was Operation Protective Edge. While the world was obsessed with Israel, there were major developments that may have slipped past you. This sickening Reuters report on the “execution” of “collaborators” in Gaza is typical of…
They lied to you about white phosphorus
August 18, 2014
Israel, I owe you an apology. I should’ve looked into the white phosphorus lie back in 2009. In my defense I didn’t appreciate the scope of the very real global conspiracy to make Israel into a pariah state. The conspirators include the United Nations, the European Union, the press, and every single “human rights” organization…
Cynical, idiotic journalists make fools of themselves
August 15, 2014
Move over, Israel! You’ve got competition as a target of cynical, idiotic journalists who have no bloody idea what they’re talking about. This time it’s the Kurds who are being ridiculed by morons. And as we’ve seen from the abysmal reporting coming out of Gaza, the incompetent, catastrophically uninformed clowns who try to present themselves…
An apolitical post about politics
June 2, 2014
June 3, 2014, is the California statewide direct primary election. I’ll vote, but I don’t care who wins. California is a failed state, which is what the voters want.

“I just wanna bitch.”
May 30, 2014
My father’s hobby was complaining. He’d come over to vent, and if you tried to help, he’d say, “I just wanna bitch. I’m not here for solutions.” It’s ironic because his favorite way shut you up was to ask, “Are you complaining?” He didn’t want to hear anybody else’s problems. Dad loved to hook up…
A funeral story to make your day
April 14, 2014
I forgot another doctor’s appointment, but my ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist is very understanding. He knows that Meniere’s disease makes you senile when you’re under stress, so at my rescheduled session this morning, he told me a funeral story to make me feel less foolish. Before I get to that, he also revealed…
This is why politicizing everything is stupid
March 26, 2014
You may have purely noble intentions, getting so worked up over politics. However, there are two problems you face. The first is that you now have the responsibility to actually know what you’re talking about. The second is that as long as politicians are in charge of politics, you’re on a fool’s errand. Politicizing everything…
