The only thing Science Deniers have right
It’s been about 40 years since I had Logic class at Marquette but I think this joke is a demonstration on how syllogisms get hijacked into “facts.” Good thing I prefer tap water I put through a Brita filter first!

Something Amerika would have a stroke over seeing
Jeremy sent this recently. It’s a posting from the Dutch Communists’ Youth Brigade. Yes, these organizations still exist despite the huge lie told by the Tories and Republicans, and repeated by Corporate-owned media, on how their wannabe dictators won the … Continue reading

ERCOT’s current solution from Abbott’s base
So far, our shit-bag governor putting the CEO of a truck-stop chain in charge of ERCOT isn’t really working out. As expected, the GOP-run Idiocracy has been begging people to scale back their AC usage and to not run major … Continue reading
We’ve achieved peak Austin! Horribly Hot with Weird on course
Mucca Sacra! Nothing could be more Austin Weird than this stupid person on a scooter exposing their skin to third-degree burns in 10 minutes (or stage one skin cancer in 20). One friend thinks they’re from Venice Beach, CA where … Continue reading
Welcome to July 2022
Phew! We just got through the hottest June on record and now we’re headed full speed into the broiler with July. Note how the Climate Deniers/Right have changed their position from “it’s not happening,” to, “we’ll have to live with … Continue reading

As per Astronomy, Summer is “here!”
We already have had a one-month head start on the heat wave which also means Climate Change arrived years ago but it remains a fiction to the morons in charge with their legions of millions like my dead uncle and … Continue reading
Now most of the US can play!

Allergies are a nightmare this Summer
This morning I woke up and my head felt as if the insides were scrambled by the hand mixer I bought earlier this year. It would be nice to use that appliance again but I think one of the floor … Continue reading
Snow-ma-geddon 2021!
Power was restored at my house today, hence no post for yesterday! Lucky you while unlucky for Jennifer, her apartment remains offline and everything there is electric. Hard to believe 20 years ago, I wasn’t too thrilled about natural gas … Continue reading
Fusion power! Maybe in a few years
The latest attempt to harness fusion power is being built in France by a rare cooperative effort between numerous nations, including those who are bitter enemies. I really hope they succeed and are on schedule as much as possible. It’s … Continue reading
Aniara
The short version. Midsommar meets WALL-E because it’s Swedish and many people lose their sanity during the journey. If you’re still curious, keep reading… In the near future, Earth is inhospitable thanks to Climate Change so millions are leaving for Mars via spaceships … Continue reading

One evil Koch brother dead, another to go
How the obits still brought up David Koch’s self-centered, bullshit “philanthropy” which is meaningless because his family has jeopardized the world for money, the one thing that couldn’t stop him from dying eventually. Besides, all these rich assholes donating to … Continue reading
They’ll float too!
What looks like a clump of peat moss is really a fire ant colony floating around until they find dry land. If there really is a hell, these stinging little SOBs would be permanent fixtures. When there’s a flood, fire … Continue reading
Rita affects Austin before landfall
Pictures and comments courtesy of Somara. snarkychef.blogspot.com Hint, it’s not the wind and rain, but the idiocy that affected Houstonites the other day.
Rita was nowhere close
Even though its path has changed significantly and the Feds have overcompensated on this one (got to get Spurious George’s poll numbers back into the low 40s), Austin was never in any danger. We’re pretty far from the coast, at … Continue reading
