A newly transplanted liberal in Florida described being triggered by patriotism as she tried to make new friends. The young woman in the video with thousands of views described the difficulty she has had in making new friends since moving to St. Petersburg, a city on Florida’s Gulf Coast. While she admits she loves the weather and St. Pete is “beautiful,” the woman soon shares her dilemma. “However, it has been hard to make friends which is natural as an adult,” she said. “It’s really difficult. I work from home, I live alone.” She explained how she downloaded the Meetup...

A Delta pilot has gone viral after he delivered a wild speech detailing the incredibly strict 'rules' that he requires passengers to follow during a flight - while referring to himself as a 'servant leader.' The man, whose identity is not known, sparked fierce backlash after a video of him sharing the vast list of regulations that he 'needed everyone' on the aircraft 'to obey' surfaced on Instagram. In the clip, the pilot could be seen relaying his orders to the travelers over the plane's intercom system. He began by describing himself as the 'servant leader' and 'the captain of...

Palantir Technologies (PLTR.N) has cultivated a powerful mythos worthy of being named for a crystal ball from “The Lord of the Rings.” The data-analysis company co-founded by Peter Thiel and run by Alex Karp fetches a big premium to most of its peers. Financial realities, however, suggest the valuation is the stuff of science fiction. Demand is quickly rising for software using artificial intelligence that can make sense out of voluminous and disparate data to flag suspicious financial transactions or defend against military attacks. Yet Palantir’s top line is only expected to grow 16% this year, according to forecasts gathered...

Lisa told...

I couldn’t stomach a ‘cooking’ magazine that is more devoted to promoting LGBT awareness than teaching readers about delicious food.I am fortunate to be part of a vibrant Google group (that has since spun off into an excellent Substack), where weekly conversations can run the gamut from intense national security discussions to analyzing Taylor Swift’s latest album. Several years ago, someone in the group asked for recommendations for a solid cooking magazine, and many folks (myself included) chimed in with a vote for Bon Appetit.You can tell the BA writers really love to cook, and they want you to...

Self-defense? The customer fired 9-shots and killed the man robbing patrons in Houston restaurant who had a fake gun. After the robber fell to the ground, the customer continued to fire as he moved closer to the man and snatched his gun. The customer then fired one final shot in the robber's general direction, and the man passed away at the scene, as seen on camera. After the robber was down, the shooter realized the gun he was brandishing was fake and angrily tossed it against a wall. Now people are asking, why did the taqueria customer have to shoot...

A Twitter engineering manager reportedly vomited into a trash can after being told to fire hundreds of people by one of Elon Musk’s advisers. The revelation came in a lengthy article from the New York Times on Musk’s first weeks as the owner of Twitter. "The fallout has often been excruciating, according to 36 current and former Twitter employees and people close to the company, as well as internal documents and workplace chat logs,” the Times report says. “Some top executives were summarily fired by email. One engineering manager, upon being told to cut hundreds of workers, vomited into a...

Fans of “Star Trek: The Next Generation” may be disappointed to see actress Marina Sirtis claiming she’s deleting her Twitter account this weekend. The popular one-hit-wonder who has been milking the brand that built her for decades announced several times that she’s done with the social media site now that free speech (or as she calls it, “hate speech”) appears to be coming back now that Elon Musk has purchased the company. Will any other Hollywood wokesters soon follow? We can only hope.

Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Friday on MSNBC’s “Alex Wagner Tonight” that former President Donald Trump should not be too much of a “snowflake” to testify to the January 6 House Select Committee. Wagner said, “Do you expect that he is going to comment testify? I mean, there are reports that he’ll testify if he can do so live. Reports are the committee is considering that. But we have been down this road before where Donald Trump says, oh, yes, sure, I will absolutely testify, aka, the Mueller saga, and it never happens. What is your over under that he’s...

VIDEOA Democrat Snowflake rudely cut ahead of a polite man in a checkout line and when he mildly objects, she goes into a self-righteous but extremely hilarious BERSERK rage.

VIDEOThe ironic thing about the Podcast Movement 22 groveling apology for Ben Shapiro's mere brief appearance at their Dallas conference is that it made him front and center of that event. Had they not apologized for Shapiro showing up to just say hello to a few people before quickly departing, his presence would have gone unnoticed along with their very conference. Instead they have inadvertently (and hilariously) made Ben Shapiro front and center of their conference and probably all future conferences due to their absurd snowflake overreaction to him.

The Babylon Bee: Fake News You Can Trust. -The Babylon Bee’s Self-Description The satirical site, the Babylon Bee (the Bee) has been fact-checked, criticized and and/or censored by Facebook, Twitter, Mailchimp, Snopes, Politifact, the New York Times and Slate on numerous occasions. This is literally incomprehensible since the Bee explicitly represents itself as a satirical “fake news” site. One cannot “fact-check” a joke. Why then do so many “liberal” sites insist on fact-checking explicit non-factual satire? One might think the answer is simple: Liberals, like everyone else, just don’t like to be made the butt of humor. However, this cannot...

On Monday, MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough praised President Joe Biden for how he received being roasted at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner over the weekend.

Former Ohio Gov. John Kasich said he went behind a building and cried after losing the 2016 GOP presidential primary to former President Donald Trump. Kasich made the embarrassing admission on Thursday’s episode of the “​​Kasich & Klepper” podcast. The former governor said that he had stayed in the race until the bitter end because he believed people “were gonna come to their senses.” “Well, you know, I was [in the presidential race] til the bitter end. When it was over — I haven’t ever told anyone this — I was on a plane and we were going to do...

Simone Biles has become nearly as famous for the Olympic events she quit as the ones she won, and now she is doubling down, saying that walking away last year was her “biggest win” yet. The renowned gymnast became the target of criticism after she dropped out of several events at the 2021 Tokyo Summer Olympic games. The 24-year-old gymnast said she skipped the events due to her “mental health.” Since she walked away from some of the events, Biles has become the toast of the left for deferring to her “mental health” instead of achieving excellence in competition. She...

Amy Schumer implied she was stepping away from her active career for a 'month' break as she shared an Instagram snap with her son Gene on Thursday morning. The 40-year-old comedian wrapped her arms around her two-year-old little one in the peaceful photo, and wrote: 'Out of office reply for the next month. Thanks.' Her latest post follows a social media share on Wednesday morning where she admitted she was 'still triggered and traumatized' by the 'disturbing' moment when Will Smith stormed onto the stage and slapped Chris Rock during Sunday night's 94th annual Academy Awards ceremony. Amy followed up...

This is an original creation. I would be shocked if someone else hasn't already done it. But it has the dual advantages of being both a lot of fun and oddly playable. Enjoy! All of the normal rules of Rummy apply: - All players start with seven cards and the discard pile contains a single face-up card - A turn consists of a draw or pickup from the discard pile, an optional play, and a discard - If you pick up more than one card from the discard pile, you must immediately play at least the bottom card and keep...

He’s the Whine House Chief of Staff. President Biden’s top aide, Ron Klain, took to Twitter Saturday to decry press coverage of his boss. The chief of staff — known to insiders as the “Prime Minister” for his outside influence inside the West Wing — shared an opinion essay from the Washington Post arguing that Biden was receiving worse coverage than former President Trump. The piece from Post opinion columnist Dana Milbank warned that “My colleagues in the media are serving as accessories to the murder of democracy.” Milbank said he came to the conclusion after an analysis of more...
