Fighting a rise in Covid 19 infections and desperate to keep numbers down, the State of California will soon require household pets to wear facemasks in public. Simultaneously, Mask vs. Anti Mask is trending on Twitter. The pro mask case: Why do doctors wear face masks? To protect you from their germs. So obviously it has some positive effect. The anti maskers reply that jurisdictions with masks requirements, i.e. California, have not done better than Texas or Florida in keeping covid numbers...
3/111/21: "Man Overboard!" came the 3:30 am call on the loudspeakers of the Carnival Miracle cruise ship off the coast of Baja California. A woman fell or was pushed from the 5th floor, and fell into the Pacific ocean. A fall from that height would ordinarily result in injury. If the person was not pulled out of the water quickly enough, hypothermia would set in. Passengers were in the midst of a three-day voyage from the Long Beach Cruise Terminal to Ensenada. “Someone has lost their life, whe...
Apparently a starbucks in Los Angeles has taken the gender neutral bathroom movement to a whole new level. A sign on the door and also above the sink, tells patrons they are welcome whether they are men, women or well, space aliens. "Usually, i think so yeah. I feel like most of the time this is someone trying to be "hip" by saying look, you're welcome here regardless of gender identity -- but it just does so in an icky way without really realizing it," said one patron. The historical purposes...
As the scale of destruction from this weekend's tornado event in Southwestern Kentucky becomes clear, the number of deaths could rise past the United States modern record of 330 deaths set in 1972. A path of tornadoes 200 miles wide may also break a record. About 417 "severe storm reports" were received by the National Weather Service, a record for one event. Arkansas, Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri and Tennessee were all impacted by the disaster. The 219-mile-long Tri-state Tornado of March 1925...
A Chinese lunar rover operating on the dark side of Earth's moon, has discovered an object the size and shape of an ancient Egyptian obelisk. The Chinese space agency has released a photograph of the object. The rover is still 70 meters from the object, and it is not clear whether or not its surface is inscribed with Egyptian hieroglyphics. But it seems likely. Did the ancient Egyptians visit the dark side of the moon? Or did they form an alliance with extra-terrestrials, as Erich Von Daniken pr...
NASA has released video from the Perseverance rover on the surface of Mars, complete with audio. Nasa has tried to record Martian sound before, but the audio is clear and well, haunting. It may be seen at this link: https://twitter.com/MAstronomers/status/1464347796933328900?s=20 The Martian atmosphere is 1/90th as thick as the air on Earth. It is mostly carbon dioxide as opposed to our planet's oxygen/nitrogen atmosphere. There is water vapor present too, much less than on Earth. NASA's...
A paper published today at Phys.org, suggests that the cylindrical meteor or other object that passed through the solar system in 2017, may not have had a natural origin. The paper is entitled "Not saying it was aliens, but 'Oumuamua probably wasn't a nitrogen iceberg." Written by Matt Williams of Universe Today, the paper disagrees with the theory that the object was nitrogenous debris from the outer solar system. A long excerpt is below. Other evidence for Oumuamua being a space probe from...
Why does anyone show up to watch a Travis Scott concert? I mean, the dude has a history of exhorting violence at his concerts. We'll get to that in a moment. As a 10th victim of the Astroworld tragedy died Friday, Rapper Travis Scott said in a statement that he would pay all funeral costs "and provide other help to victims of this tragedy." Actually, the statement was written by crisis management PR people, but that's typical in such circumstances. The Statement is below. At least 12 lawsuits...
NASA is in final preparations to send the Artemis Spacecraft around the moon in February. The craft will be unmanned, but will be followed in 2023 by a manned mission to the moon. They will actually land on the moon by July of 2025. NASA could move up their moon landing if they had just $5.9 billion more from Congress. Without it, they may be beated to Earth's companion in space, by the Chinese space program. Or even worse, by Elon Musk. Needless to say, NASA has gone fully woke with the...

The bride wore a dress sequined with pieces of broken mirrors. I'm sure this meant something to her, but our well connected, progressive Governor has re-emerged from seclusion after 12 days. Gov Gavin Newsom got a Covid booster on November 12th. Flexed his muscles for the camera, then apparently was waylaid by his own children. One of his sons is five years old, explained Newsom on a Podcast from Monterey, CA. And they insisted he take some time off to trick or treat. No, I'm not making this...

The man who can move markets, Elon Musk, agrees that he "likes and supports Boobies." No, I'm not really sure what this means either. And it doesn't appear to have anything to do with either Dogecoin or a different crypto currency called Shiba Inu. Guys, could you let us in on the joke? A woman named Morgan Sarkissian, who describes herself as an #NFT and Crypto investor, posted a tweet that "Elon Musk Likes and Supports Boobies." Musk tweeted back, "what gave it away?" Sarkissian then tweeted,...
Southwest Airlines, fresh off a work stoppage due to Covid-19 mandates and sickouts, has a new problem. A pilot said "Let's Go Brandon" over the public address system. A pilot apparently repeated "Let's go Brandon!", the clarion call of Republicans tired of the mainstream media running interference for the Democratic President. The airline has faced threats of cancellation all weekend after an Associated Press journalist reported what she heard on a Friday flight from Houston to Albuquerque on...
Fun fact: Titan has only one third as much gravity as earth, but the atmosphere is 10 times thicker. Therefore, a man could theoretically strap on winds, and fly through the air like a bird. Of course, the temperature is around 200 degrees below zero, Farenheit. So dress warmly. NASA has release posters of imaginary vacations on planets such as Venus and Mars, and a poster designed by NASA artists depicts people visiting Jupiter's moon Titan, which has liquid methane oceans. In the videos, peopl...
