A LITTLE STRONGLY WORDED BUT… The Only Thing Stupider Than Your AI Witch Hunt Is You.
Look, most of the comments now made about AI were once made about… typewriters (if you grew up in Portugal, you might be in my generation and remember that), or cameras, or word processors, or– anything really. Bah. Witch hunts.
I REMEMBER WHEN COMMIES HATED COKE: Have a Coke and a Culture War. Coca-Cola’s customization tool has no problem with Jesus—as long as you clarify that he’s… bad.
LOOK, WHAT DID THEY THINK WOULD HAPPEN WHEN ADVERTISING UNIVERSAL AMNESTY? Thousands of migrants still in Ceuta after border crisis, local leader says.

HOW IS THE BLOCKADE ON IRAN DOING? Dozens of Idling Iranian Oil Tankers Show US Blockade Is Working.
PROBABLY, TO BE FAIR, WITH TERROR AND SLAUGHTER IS PROBABLY HOW WE RETURN: How Do We Return From Here?
As is true every time we forget the gods of the copybook headings.
THINK, PLEASE THINK: Why Iran? Why Now?

FINALLY: First NBA Player Declares for WNBA.
Kanter has been retired for a few years, but he is 6′ 10″ and in his best years in the NBA averaged as much as 15 points and 11 rebounds per game. Wilt Chamberlain once scored 100 points in an NBA game; Enes Kanter might average 100 points per game in the WNBA.
It will be interesting to see whether more male players follow Kanter’s lead and enter the WNBA draft. Presumably the teams won’t draft them, thereby confirming that the league’s pro-trans ideology was always about politics, not “inclusion.”

UPDATE: That didn’t take long: Former NBA player Royce White says he is declaring for next WNBA Draft after Enes Kanter announcement. The former NBA player and Republican Senate candidate joins Enes Kanter Freedom in challenging the league.

JESUS PARABLE AND WASTE, FRAUD: United Citizens Foundation in Las Vegas got three federal grants between 2023 and 2025 totaling more than $937,000 dollars. The Department of Justice Inspector-General audited the grants and found more than $360,000 that should be returned to the government. The foundation’s COO offered in an interview with The Washington Stand a strong dissent to the government’s claims.
But the problems pointed out by the government struck yours truly as the kinds of things grant applicants should be screened for prior to a decision on who gets the federal tax dollars. More evidence that a major part of the explanation for the massive waste, fraud and corruption problem in federal spending lies with incompetent management by federal administrators.

IT’S TIME FOR VICTORIA TAFT’S West Coast, Messed Coast™: Spokane Arsonist Was Wearing the Same Shirt He Wore to Set Fires Last Year. “The case of the now-confessed Spokane arsonist leaves your humble correspondent breathless and sad.

THE REAL FIRST RESPONDERS ARE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ALREADY THERE WHEN IT HAPPENS: Before the Police Get There: Armed People Save Lives More and More Often. “Everything takes time. Depending on the location and the number of civilians there, a killer can shoot about 15 people if we wait for the police to arrive and stop an attack. We’ve seen that data play out over the last decade. We have hundreds of examples. That’s the ugly calculus of time.”
When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.
THANKS, FELLAS: Ukraine delivers first batch of drones to United States.
The F10 is a first-person-view, or FPV, strike drone, giving operators a live view from the aircraft as they guide it to its target. They carry explosives to strike armored vehicles, military equipment and personnel.
The F10 has proved itself in the war with Russia, recording “thousands of successful strikes and counting,” the company said.
It is participating in the Pentagon’s Drone Dominance Program, a $1 billion initiative to rapidly evaluate and arm U.S. combat units with low-cost, small one-way attack drones. The goal is to procure more than 200,000 drones for U.S. forces by 2027, according to the Pentagon.
