Similarity Overload

I’ve said before that I miss newspapers — when I was staying in Britishland a few years back I devoured the Free Markets’ Daily Telegraph  every morning — and most of the reason is that a newspaper covers a wide variety of topics.

This is no longer true since we all started getting our news on the Internet, because naturally we tend to gravitate towards websites which cater to our needs rather than ones that don’t.

The problem is that there is hardly any what I call “general” reading anymore — all the conservative sites cover pretty much the same dozen topics each day — which is why I read Britain’s Daily Mail and Sun newspapers avidly.  I know that they’re both pretty dire, but they’re free, offer more than just politicspoliticspolitics, and even if they sometimes read like the National Enquirer, it’s at least far more entertaining than reading How Biden Is Leading Us To Doom for the seventh time that morning.  (The Telegraph  is behind a paywall, sadly, and all American newspapers are either also thus immured, or else horrible Lefty rags [some overlap] which I will not give the time of day).

My twice-weekly News Roundup features my attempts to address that ghastly sameness, albeit in a lighthearted manner, and the variety of topics I choose to “summarize”  reflects that ideal.  And unlike Instapundit, who I think tries to do more or less the same, my Roundups feature scantily-clad women, because just because.

Anyway, I didn’t start this post meaning for it to become so serious, so to lighten things up a little, herewith some gratuitous pics of things that I like:

(Try finding that joke at Breitbart or The Federalist…)

And finally:

You’ll never find that combination of topics at any single website, but you should at mine… along with

And the news is even worse:


that’s some funny shit, right there.

As is this (no link):

Even better:


no mention of their modern-day slaves, i.e. everyone living in Britain.


I said this would happen one day.  And the idea going to be floated here at some point in the near future.


“Bozo” Biden was unavailable for comment.

From the Dept. of Assimilation:


ah yes, that well-known tolerance of Islam.

…and:


after they applied for grade school teaching jobs, no doubt.

From the Dept. of Religion:


frankly, old cock, I think most people would agree that you should spend more time talking about the Devil, something you trained for, and much less time about all the other wokist shit you go on about.


those being:  lying, telling falsehoods, mendacity and fibbingWe’re not even going to mention the other sins of making shit up and overtly supporting the dark forces of evil (i.e. Marxism).


and Just Like That, their future career prospects shrank by 90%.


not the same:  worse.

And speaking of Depends:


what are they going to do:  imprison him?  If such a fate ever befalls me, expect a whole lot of shit like that, only much more malevolent than just mooning.  You heard it here first.


only 1.) what did you expect for 36 quid, and 2.) you need a slimmer body to carry it off, and 3.) what kind of fucking wedding dress is that in the first place?

And that’s all the “news” fit to report, embellish or invent (/New York Times ).

Unworthy

The story of the film so far:  woman puts money into a lottery machine, gets bumped by rude asshole, accidentally pushes the wrong button on the machine and gets a single (and expensive) card, different from the cheap ones she normally plays.  Okay, that kinda sucks.

Then she does the scratchy thing and discovers that her “accidental” card has just given her a $10 million payout.

Hooray, hoorah and all that.

But here’s where the story takes a nasty turn:

Edwards said she is going to use her winnings to buy a house and start a nonprofit organization.

Oh FFS.

Let’s start at the top.

  1. That $10 million turns to $5 million immediately, as the FedGov and the Golden Shower State take their respective pounds of flesh off the top;
  2. Being a Los Angeles County prisoner resident, she’s going to have to drop about $2 million if she wants to get anything more than a two-bed / one-bath bungalow;
  3. If she doesn’t invest the remaining millions properly, she won’t have enough income to afford the property taxes on that big new house, unless she wants to keep working at (rough guess) the DMV for the rest of her life;
  4. And all that’s after the res’ of da fambly — some of whom she never knowed was fambly — comes calling with their hands out (her first name is LaQuedra:  connect the dots);
  5. So much for the non-profit.

She could always start a non-profit and pay herself a decent salary as the president thereof;  but the salaries for the rest of the staff (all fambly) will drain her coffers dry within at most two years — and the IRS takes a dim view of that kind of thing, anyway.

None of this is important to me — it’s not my money and well done to her, I say — but it’s a good example of stupid people pissing away their good fortune.

So let’s waltz into the news, such as it is.



but the real bad news came when he discovered that Amazon’s cheap medical plan didn’t cover heart attacks.


because it stopped people from smoking, right?



and:


quelle surprise.


because MAGA rallies always end in riots, looting and burning buildings, you see.


thus answering the old question:  “If guns are banned, can we use swords?”


I think we’ve all had orgasms like that at least once before.  And speaking of orgasms:


LOL, Professor Reynolds.

And as for (non-linked) INSIGNIFICA:

   


headline should read:  “BECAUSE I drive a Ferrari, I have to shop at Aldi, etc.”

And in that vein:

Also, to be politically correct, let’s not leave out our Asian models:

Here endeth the news.

Crash Diet

Well, I suppose that’s one way of losing weight:

“For the first time, this generation is going to go into a store and not be able to get what they want.  And we have a very entitled generation that has never had to sacrifice.”

I don’t know how much credence to give this alarm — I can’t vouch for the source and quite frankly, I find it hard to believe anyone these days — but having just paid $106 to fill my Tiguan over the weekend, I’m still in shock so all the stuff on the article seems plausible.

Worse till, even if it’s halfway true, there’s going to be a whole bunch of pain going on, and the current Maladministration is going to make things worse and not better, before we can try to correct it in November.
