Kilauea


On September 11, 2001, my mother called me freaking out and afraid that terrorists were going to fly airplanes into my apartment. I live 50 miles from the Pentagon, but for mom, that was still too close. She passed away in 2002 but would have lost her mind if she had seen the events of... Continue Reading →

Candidate Stranger Danger


Usually, when you send a pedophile to Congress, you don't know they're a pedophile until much later. In this case, Nathan Larson has boasted he is a pedophile, among many other horrible things. Larson is an Independent congressional candidate for Virginia's 10th District. Shockingly, he's not running as a Republican. Of course, there's no chance... Continue Reading →

Doped-Up Demons


Louisiana televangelist Jesse Duplantis said, "I really believe that if Jesus was physically on the Earth today, he wouldn’t be riding a donkey. Think about it for a minute. He’d be in an airplane preaching the gospel all over the world." With that argument, this jackass wants his followers to buy him a $54 million luxury... Continue Reading →

Trump Pardon Bingo


Usually, a president takes his power to pardon very seriously. They take recommendations from the Justice Department after they've studied a case for at least two years. Typically, pardons come at the end of a presidential term. Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama didn't issue one pardon between them during their first two years.... Continue Reading →

Ambien Tweeting


After Roseanne blamed Ambien for her racist tweeting, I made a joke in yesterday's blog that the drug will need to place on its warning label; "May cause racist tweeting." Sure enough, after I did that, the company that makes Ambien, Sanofi US, issued a statement which read, "People of all races, religions and nationalities... Continue Reading →

Roseanne Banned


I've said it here before and I'm going to say it again. I don't know who said it first, and maybe someone will inform me (update: I've been informed it was Maya Angelou. I knew that and forgot it). But, when someone tells you who they are, believe them. As you see people deflect and/or defend... Continue Reading →

Got Compassion


The United States government has been separating immigrant children from their parents in Trump's New World Order of Chaos and Uncaring. Just in case that's not heartless enough, they've also lost track of nearly 1,500 children who crossed the border alone (that is, unaccompanied by adults). Christian conservatives are outraged. They're demanding answers, justice, compassion,... Continue Reading →

Milwaukee’s Best


One Milwaukee police officer was suspended 15 days for tasing NBA player Sterling Brown. Another received ten days, and a third received two. What do you want to bet that next season a player in the NFL will receive a longer suspension for kneeling in protest of police violence? A police officer confronted Brown January...

The Cost Of Costa Rica


This cartoon ran in The Costa Rica Star on May 18, 2018. A recent study compared the cost of living in Costa Rica with the cost of living in the United States, and to the surprise of no one, Costa Rica is cheaper. But, the survey was misleading with just how much cheaper it is... Continue Reading →

Bad Behavior Defense


Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein did not get the Hollywood red-carpet treatment when he entered a New York City courthouse to face charges of raping one woman and forcing another to perform oral sex. Instead, he entered wearing handcuffs. Three pairs in fact, because he's kind of a big guy. It was being a big guy... Continue Reading →
