Why is the Super Bowl going to air two "Jesus. He gets
us." commercials during the upcoming Super Bowl?
Answer: Because an unknown Xtian-based agency is giving the
NFL $20 million dollars to broadcast them.
Who is this Jesus guy, anyway? I've never heard of
him. Have you? I guess whoever this mystery agency
is believes they can make a lot of money from him,
or her. All he, or she, needs is a little exposure
before a football-loving demographic. Hey! It worked
for the Apple Macintosh.
Anyway, good luck to them. I'll be keeping an eye out
for this Jesus thing and I hope it fares better than
the Segway.

Jesus is a real, ghastly thing.

A question on Reddit today (Presumably to Americans): "Why
are you pro-gun?"
Typical answer: "I'm scared of unspecified stuff
so I want to be able to remedy the situation by putting
big holes in it."
Worst answer possible.
Because very VERY few of us will ever be in a situation
that requires us to end the life of another person
in order to save our own. Meanwhile, the second half
of the Second Amendment provides cover for all the
true crazies out there, with primitive social skills,
as they arm themselves to the teeth.
Long story short, they're saying "We need guns
to protect ourselves from people with guns."
Pure madness.
And for those who say "We need the 2A to protect
this country from tyrants", well, if given the
opportunity, the "visitors" to the Capitol
on January 6th would have gladly used force of arms
to KEEP a tyrant in office.
FYI: Among the 11,000 replies to the question (so far)
I saw but one reference of "To
put food on the table." There may of been other
such answers but they weren't in the top tier.

There's a very popular sub-Reddit called /r/fuckcars,
and it's for those who imagine a world without automobiles.
There's also a sub-Reddit called /r/fuckguns.
It's been banned for.... reasons.
What a surprise.

Exxon (alone) made $56 billion dollars in profit last
year. Record profit.
I wonder if punishably high gas prices we recently
endured had anything to do with the inflation we
experienced in 2022.
The very inflation
that Republicans blamed on Biden and used to take
the House.
Answer: Yes. Fuck yes!
-----------------
I believe that President Joe Biden is sincere about
shifting the U.S. away from fossil fuels and into renewable
energy so I think it'd be a significant symbolic gesture
on his part if he converted his Corvette to battery
power.
It'd go faster with Tesla guts anyway.

I have a feeding station on the porch for stray neighborhood
cats.
Currently Dallas is in the grip of an ice storm so
birds are having trouble foraging, which means they're
gobbling up my cat chow like it's an all-you-can-eat
annelid buffet.
Which means, in a morbid sense, cat food is eating
my cat food.
