ABC Pulls Jimmy Kimmel Live! Over Kirk Killer Remarks If anything I’m about to say sounds dramatic to you, too bad. Because moments like these are how democracies die. When the powerful chill speech, people stop speaking. When no one speaks, no one is holding the powerful accountable. When no one is holding the powerful …

There Is Nothing Freak About This Accident
They’re making a big deal here out of the fact that these two women were deaf and that’s likely why this happened, but personally I feel like the standing on train tracks taking pictures and not paying attention thing might have had more to do with it. Your ears may not work, but as long …

The Ontario Liberals Have No Idea What They’re Doing, Do They?
I don’t have strong feelings one way or another about Bonnie Crombie, which I suppose may be part of the problem here. But the news that she’s resigning has me surprised and disappointed, because it really doesn’t feel like she was given a fair shot. She hadn’t even been on the job for a full …

I Need A Babysitter. For Myself, Judging By The Kinds Of Things I Get Tricked Into
My brain has been through a lot these last couple weeks (more on that sometime down the road I’m sure), but I still have no idea why this particular scam worked.

Let’s Go To The Hop. And The Courthouse. And The Jail
$700,000 is a pretty nice chunk of change to be sure, but if I’m going to need to amputate my legs and then tell the insurance company that sepsis got me in order to claim it, I’ll do without, thanks. I guess I’m just not as determined as the now appropriately named Neil Hopper. It …

You Can Cross, But You’ll Want To Watch Out For Self-Driving Teslas
There are variations, but generally, an accessible pedestrian street crossing signal sounds something like this: But for a little while in Redwood City, California, some of them sounded like this: Or in Palo Alto, like this: Those are obviously not the real voices of Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, but I must say that the …
