No ‘Onion’ Story This – Tess Holliday Cosmopolitan Cover

by

Way too much ink, don’t you think.

The HuffPost writes, “Tess Holliday Tells Critics ‘Not To Worry About My Fat Ass’ On Cosmo Cover“.

Tess Holliday isn’t tolerating Piers Morgan’s comments about her Cosmopolitan UK cover after the British TV personality slammed her presence on the magazine’s October issue.

“As Britain battles an ever-worsening obesity crisis, this is the new cover of Cosmo,” he wrote Thursday on Instagram. “Apparently we’re supposed to view it as a ‘huge step forward for body positivity.’ What a load of old baloney. This cover is just as dangerous & misguided as celebrating size zero models.”

“To everyone saying I’m a burden to the British health care system, I’m american so you don’t have to worry about my fat ass,” the 33-year-old wrote. “Worry about what horrible people you are by whining about how me being on the cover of a glossy magazine impacts your small minded life.”

Barack Obama – Election Monkey

by

Breitbart reports, “Barack Obama in 2008: Both Parties ‘Have Monkeyed Around With Elections’“.

Barack Obama warned supporters that politicians had “monkeyed around” with elections, during a campaign speech at Kent State University in New Philadelphia, Ohio, on September 3, 2008.

Then-Senator Obama (D-IL) said: “I come from Chicago. It’s not as if it’s just Republicans who have monkeyed around with elections in the past. Sometimes Democrats have, too. You know, whenever people are in power, they have this tendency to try to tilt things in their direction.”

But, of course, if a Republican like Ron DeSantis uses the colloquial expression….

Do Be Like The Hummingbird and Leave Your Smartphone Behind

by

From Vice, “Your Phone Is Listening and it’s Not Paranoia.”

It seemed like just a spooky coincidence, but then everyone seems to have a story about their smartphone listening to them. So is this just paranoia, or are our smartphones actually listening?

According to Dr. Peter Henway—The senior security consultant for cybersecurity firm Asterix, and former lecturer and researcher at Edith Cowan University—the short answer is yes, but perhaps in a way that’s not as diabolical as it sounds.

Seals and Crofts – “Hummingbird”

New York Governor Cuomo’s New Campaign Slogan, “America Sucks”

by

Actually, it’s worse than that, as reported by CBS News, “New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo says America “was never that great.”  Well, geez, Governor.  I feel really inspired now to vote for you, now.  One can make book on that quote of yours living on in infamy along with Jimmy Carter’s “Malaise” speech, Mitt’s “Binders of Women or Forty-seven Per Cent“, or even Hillary’s “Basket of Deplorables“.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who has worked to portray himself as a major antagonist to President Trump, offered an alternative to the president’s famous campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” at a bill signing Wednesday.

“We are not going to make America great again. It was never that great,” he said. The audience, which was there to watch Cuomo sign a bill to make sex trafficking a felony in the state, reacted with audible gasps and cheers. The governor was attempting to make a larger point about women’s equality, but the context was lost with the shocked reaction to his first sentence.

Ocasio-Cortez and the Economics of ‘Free Shit’

by

The National Review writes about Democratic-Socialist, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, “Boston University’s Fake-o-Nomics Darling.”  They put it bluntly, “It costs a pretty penny to earn a diploma in stupid.”

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez majored in economics, but she doesn’t seem to have learned much.

The annual list price to attend Boston University — including tuition, fees, room, and board — currently rounds out to $70,000. To acquire a degree in economics from this tony institution of higher learning, an undergrad must complete courses in calculus, microeconomic and macroeconomic analysis, empirical economics, statistics, and assorted electives.

Four years, 52 credits and nearly $300,000 later, the school promises that BU economics majors will depart “with a firm understanding of core microeconomic and macroeconomic theory” and the “empirical skills that are essential to applying economic reasoning in our increasingly data-driven world.”

Meet The NY Times’ New “White People” Expert

by

As reported by Israel’s Arutz Sheva news site, “News NY Times hires “white people” expert Sarah Jeong“.

Looks like for we “white people,” there is no hope, no chance, no place for us in the new world order as imagined by the young and the restless Socialist Democrats.

Hmmm??  What has America’s “Newspaper of Record”, the arbiter of “All the news that’s fit to print” and purveyor of  “The truth [which] is more important now than ever” come to?

[Sarah Jeong] was hired, they say, for her expertise on law, technology, internet culture — and white people.

That’s her job description.

Well, okay, I added the “white people” part, though the more you read about Sarah Jeong, the recent editorial hire at The New York Times, the more you realize that she is mostly about defining people by race.
