Found on Woodsterman: No shit. It never has. Minimum wage was never meant for the breadwinners in a family. Those are mostly miserable jobs that are a powerful incentive to better yourself. For me, back in the day, it was to pay for books, gas, fast food, and beer money. And who are we talking … Continue reading So what?

Who’s building all these damn datacenters?
I was listening to a bit the other day on the morning news talk show here on the radiobox about the data centers being built here. A lot of complaints. Which is funny, because I see pro-Texas datacenter ads all the time on the YouTubes. Most of the complaints are misguided. Fact of the matter … Continue reading Who’s building all these damn datacenters?
Send them back
A lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth is happening over the Supreme Court decision that temporary means temporary and the administration can cancel temporary protective status for a whole ton of people. I have a pretty calloused attitude about this. Most of them should've never been admitted and many have been enjoying life on … Continue reading Send them back
Right on Queue
I love the stories about the World Cup visitors coming here and finding out all the great things about our country. It's the big thing these days to have stories about it. I especially like the videos I've been watching, where the visitors are sampling Texas BBQ, marveling over the stadiums, highways and stores. They … Continue reading Right on Queue
It’s all so tiresome.
That image is poignant with what I'm about to go into. That is the protagonist (one of them) in a documentary named "Empire of Dust". I've watched it many times and crack up each time. In that scene, he's watching a crew of Congolese workers struggle with fixing the tailgate on a dump truck they've … Continue reading It’s all so tiresome.
He’s just a lib from Chicago
Turns out Pope Leo is squabbling with Orangeman about immigration: White House border czar Tom Homan stepped into the growing tension between the Trump administration and the Vatican on Tuesday, delivering a response so raw and grounded in lived experience that it's nearly impossible to argue with. A lifelong Catholic himself, Homan didn't attack the … Continue reading He’s just a lib from Chicago
Performing
Get a load of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxJvIHdap1c The title is "Woman Says White People Learned to Be Fake" She says black people have trouble fitting in the corporate world because everyone else, especially white people, learnt to be fake. You see they are simply performing. They aren't being true to themselves and their culture like she … Continue reading Performing
Well…Duh!
Man tossed of a Frontier flight for being rude. https://youtube.com/shorts/3_nT4LQgjcI?si=oJhXUe5N47egHcgy A flower in the garden of stupid. He most certainly was. I heard this on an Adam Carolla podast. He didn't say "get out of my way" to the flight attendant, according to them. He glared at the fight attendant and said "MOVE". He's an … Continue reading Well…Duh!
Don’t know what to think
Don't know what to think about this Iran shitshow. The one thing I'm certain of is we're being lied to from both parties here. I'm not as rah-rah as many. Why? Netanyahu has been crowing that Iran is weeks away from an A-bomb for 25 years or so. Why is now any different? After the … Continue reading Don’t know what to think
The Scarlet Letter
That would be the letter "A", for Anti-Semite, and it's the one they are trying to brand on Tucker Carlson's forehead. Two of the main news sites I hit - PJMedia and Ace of Spades bag on the dude nearly daily. I don't get it. He's little different than any other podcaster, like Rogan. He … Continue reading The Scarlet Letter
