Update: see below. Granted. I don't watch faux newz. Can't stomach the stuff. For conservative "media" I follow a few conservative pundit twitter accounts, have a look at Breitbart once-a-once and CNN, and then follow liberal blogs that make a point of ripping these nutbags new a$$holes here and there. (Before you think the worst … Continue reading Odd Sources, Truth Be Told (Somehow) And The Death Of #SethRich

#UnitedAirlines In Your Monopolies @ 30k Feet Below Laughter Of Automaton Galore Bigly Greatness
Hilarryus, dear worst-reader. Seriously. I'm laughing my ass off right now at #United Airlines gettin' in the newz. Of course, it need not be mentioned that more than ten or so years ago, I also got booted from a United flight. The good newz is I didn't actually get booted like this guy did. No. … Continue reading #UnitedAirlines In Your Monopolies @ 30k Feet Below Laughter Of Automaton Galore Bigly Greatness
Pathology 101: #Americant Greed Galore Times Three
Fascinating but winded article. I suppose that's why writers for The New Yorker get paid the big bucks. With that in mind, the article linked to below is a doozy. Just when I thought Citizens United had created an ideological political Autobahn to hell paid for by the über-rich that would lead my beloved #ameircant … Continue reading Pathology 101: #Americant Greed Galore Times Three
Mother’s Footstool, Sad News And My Toes
The Red Sea is the best place to scuba dive, the Adaman Sea is pretty good, too. When the weather works with you, Bali has some beautiful waters to swim in. Then there's my initialisation to crystal, turquoise waters. I will never forget the first time I swam in the Indian Ocean off the shores of Mauritius. … Continue reading Mother’s Footstool, Sad News And My Toes
Long Past The Point Of No Return Because The Snow(den)ball Is Long Gone, Melted And Absent of Doctor Strangelove
Finally, dear worst-reader, I've found something out there on the interwebnets that I can relate to--especially regarding the batsh*ttery of the cult of Edward Snowden. As I've worst-written here, I'm not a big fan of Snowden. In short, I question whether or not this so-called whistle blower is all he's cracked up to be. Also, my … Continue reading Long Past The Point Of No Return Because The Snow(den)ball Is Long Gone, Melted And Absent of Doctor Strangelove
Fake News. Deplorables. Botched Robbery. Rational Thought. A 4:30am Botched Unsolved Murder.
The thing that's been bugging me most since the presidential election goes beyond the commitment of #americant to continue along its path of batshit conservative politics. I've been seriously trying to figure out how the DNC and the Clintons totally underestimated political conservatism. Putting all the republican party trickery aside, i.e. gerrymandering congressional districts, the power of talk … Continue reading Fake News. Deplorables. Botched Robbery. Rational Thought. A 4:30am Botched Unsolved Murder.
Politburo PLUTOcracy Behaviourism
https://youtu.be/FN7v544Fd4k In all of this worst-talk about elections, The Donald, the feminine losing, how it all came to pass, one very important thing has been forgotten. What is it that makes this freak show happen? If there was ever an essence to something, there is certainly an essence here. Or are we dealing with quintessence? Indeed. … Continue reading Politburo PLUTOcracy Behaviourism
Stupid Are Us. Or. Is Da Newz Really Fake At Da Mud Fest?
What do you call it, dear worst-reader? After attempting a google search here and a wiki peak there, I'm as confused as ever. Is it... Mud Bogging Mud Pit Racing Mud Run Peanut Butter Mud Race (seriously, I found this in a search and the name comes from the colour of the mud) Deep Pit? … Continue reading Stupid Are Us. Or.

Chasing Meaninglessness Beyond The Pale Of Wishing Your Bubbles Are Bigger Than Mine
https://vimeo.com/184028703 http://www.chasingbubblesmovie.com/ Warning: major spoiler alert. This is a really cool little documentary. If you can call it a documentary. If you don't call it a documentary then what do you call it? A movie? A film? A TV show? A theatrical trailer for a film that is actually a warning to future generations about the pitfalls of... … Continue reading Chasing Meaninglessness Beyond The Pale Of Wishing Your Bubbles Are Bigger Than Mine
Disagreeing With The Greatest Disagreeer. Or. How Your World Of Worst Is Finally Catching Up To You.
News link that motivated this post: "Noam Chomsky: People Who Didn’t Vote For Clinton To Block Trump Made A ‘Bad Mistake’" | HuffPost Noam Chomsky thinks that those who sat out or protest-voted this election have made a mistake. Is the ageing über intellectual right? Don't get me wrong. I was for Clinton. Well, I was for Clinton … Continue reading Disagreeing With The Greatest Disagreeer. Or.

Afeared Or Confused? Don't Worry You're F*cked
https://youtu.be/uhuv5ojFnSo Let's run it down, shall we. This guy (video) appears at the republican (nut job) convention to announce that he's gay and ... wait for it ... and he's also a republican--that supports #Trump. And the freak show doesn't stop there. He even has the gall to ask the question "who cares where someone goes … Continue reading Afeared Or Confused? Don't Worry You're F*cked
One Step Forward, (Insert # Here) Steps Backward
I remember being debriefed by a senior agency partner in 1998. I had just returned from an interview assignment in Latvia. An "interview" is where a low-level nube gets to go out into the field and collect as much information as possible regarding assignment subject matter. In this case, the subject matter was trying to figure … Continue reading One Step Forward, (Insert # Here) Steps Backward
Censorship Nation #WhinyLittleBitch
Gawk. Wow. There is a difference between the verb and the noun? Don't you hate it when that happens, dear worst-reader? I mean, gawk as a noun doesn't sound as bad as gawk as a verb. Or am I splitting hairs here? But then again, now that the world's greatest experiment in pseudo democracy is … Continue reading Censorship Nation #WhinyLittleBitch
The Dips That Make It So, Podcast Hell, The Smell Of Skunk Road Kill
Recently subscribed to recode-decode podcast. Have to admit, of all the podcasts out there, many of which I try regularly in search of things-of-interest, there are only about a dozen or so that I remain subscribed to. Shame, eh. I mean, what a waste of bandwidth. Thousands of podcasts out there and only, maybe, twelve … Continue reading The Dips That Make It So, Podcast Hell, The Smell Of Skunk Road Kill
The Gun Of Stupidity On The #Americant Road To Nowhere
First. Let's be clear here. I hate having to search for business news on the interwebnets. Why? Well, thanks for asking, dear worst-reader. The reason I hate searching for business news is because almost all of the links I get are from propaganda news sites. Most people call this kind of news "the media". Lucky … Continue reading The Gun Of Stupidity On The #Americant Road To Nowhere
Waking Up With Chinaski, Wanda And The Lie Of Persuasion
https://youtu.be/h4JkuQq-kFM Read any Bukowski lately? Me either. Yet I woke up this morn with two things in my head. The movie Barfly and the art of persuasion. A strange mix indeed. Let's begin with Henry Chanski and Wanda Wilcox waxing misanthropy. Wanda: I can't stand people, I hate them. Henry: Oh yeah? Wanda: Do you hate them? Henry: … Continue reading Waking Up With Chinaski, Wanda And The Lie Of Persuasion
Apple Pie, Pumpkin Sky, Bern It To The F'n Ground Already
https://youtu.be/m9AwjZWboIk Repeating myself goes like this: I wanted Hillary in 2008. Not repeating myself goes like this: I wanted Hillary in 2008 but... That may bring you, dear worst-reader, to ask the following question: Why the "but" and why now? Well. I suppose most of the/my reasoning for wanting Hillary can be traced to a … Continue reading Apple Pie, Pumpkin Sky, Bern It To The F'n Ground Already
Populace, Popularity, Pregnancy And, Don't Worry, You're With Stupid
Time for proof of how it's more difficult to get rid of The Stupid than it is to get rid of ants in India or lice in dirty kids' hair or that stupid Chewbacca mask. Congratulations are (might be) at hand. Even though it probably won't topple your favourite stupid Chewbacca mask, #americant has something … Continue reading Populace, Popularity, Pregnancy And, Don't Worry, You're With Stupid
The Things They Can Do You Don't Want To Know About Because You Think Your Vote Matters
The #Brazil way or the #Americant way? Raise awareness of what conservatives are capable of. In Brazil they are blatant about it whereas in #americant they just take advantage of an entire moronic voting and non-voting public that is too stupid to figure things out on its own. I don't know about you but even as … Continue reading The Things They Can Do You Don't Want To Know About Because You Think Your Vote Matters
When Investors Cash Out, Mitt Already Made A Killing And Bankruptcy Is Not On Your Side
Hi-larry-us, dear worst-reader. I mean, I don't mean to mock all the people that will ultimately lose their minimum wage jobs. But then again, maybe they should be mocked. For the life of me, I've never understood why people work at a store like Sports Authority. I understand that due to #americant democracy equalling stupidity … Continue reading When Investors Cash Out, Mitt Already Made A Killing And Bankruptcy Is Not On Your Side
Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out, Or Pass Me The Popcorn As The Sh*t Show Implodes
Having fun in the game of life yet? No? Gee, why not? Not enough ice-cream? Not enough cheap gas? Not enough free money in the form of credit you'll never pay back? Not enough of someone thinking for you? Not enough of all this too much? Oh well. Moving on.

How/Why Your Vote Doesn't Matter: Money Is (Above) The Law.
Read some legislation this morn. I guess I woke up feeling patriotic. But that soon waned. Indeed. Get a load of this krapp. A couple of Senators--you know, those guys in government that are the dirty hands and unwashed feet of the corporate and military industrial complex--have drafted yet another useless bill that is supposed to … Continue reading How/Why Your Vote Doesn't Matter: Money Is (Above) The Law.
Tommi's News Dump: How To Avoid Reality? Make It Up As You Go Along.
Wanting to avoid the Panama Paper's bullshit ain't gonna be easy. So maybe I should just get it out of my system. First. Who are the players other than the mass of rich greedy people that will come to light from all this? Second. So far we're dealing with a hacker, a lawyer/accounting company in … Continue reading Tommi's News Dump: How To Avoid Reality? Make It Up As You Go Along.
The Thing Missing In A World Of Red
Update: I guess I stand corrected. Since posting things have changed in the map. But I reckon I'll just leave the original map--for posterity. Link that motivated this update: Americans implicated in Panama Papers | The Guardian I'm perturbed as usual, dear worst-reader. Once again my expectations are overwhelmed by the rampant dispersal of new fangled … Continue reading The Thing Missing In A World Of Red

Competition is the opposite of cooperation and is perfect for sport, games and getting laid. What else has it proven to be good for? Not sure if I got the right article. But I'm gonna go with it.
