Dodgers win World Series

I’m very pleased about that because at one point they showed a shot of Rudy Giuliani at Yankee Stadium.

Rick Steves at the Reichstag

Election denier Tina Peters sentenced to nine years.

Judge called her a charlatan and a liar and said she would do it all over again without hesitation.

Fuck yeah!

Rob Schneider - anti vax dickhead.

Right-wing not-so-funnyman Rob Schneider suggested that NBA great Dikembe Mutombo, who died of brain cancer at age 58 on Monday, was a victim of the COVID-19 vaccine.

The former “Deuce Bigalow” and “Saturday Night Live” star shared a video of the Basketball Hall of Famer urging people to get inoculated during the pandemic.

“Rest in Peace ...” Schneider wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “I’m sure this just (another) coincidence. But I took a pass on the Jab and I’m gonna not let anyone I know (and who will Listen) get it either!”

Schneider’s hot take was deemed “monstrous” by Rex Chapman, a social media commentator and NBA contemporary of Mutombo. “Dikembe fought hard for the past year. He died from brain cancer. He lived beyond an honorable life,” Chapman wrote.

Guess who had an Ashley Madison account?

An email address belonging to North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson was registered on Ashley Madison, a website designed for married people seeking affairs.

An adviser to Robinson, granted anonymity to speak freely, confirmed to POLITICO that the email address in question belongs to Robinson.

I can just imagine the responses from women to a guy who advertises himself as a Black Nazi.

The Dude is Making a New Widelux Panoramic Film Camera

Jeff Bridges, who has multiple times espoused his love of the panoramic Widelux film camera, is planning to make it easier for more people to find a love of photography the same way he did by remaking the classic camera next year and calling it the WideluxX.

“Most of the photographs I take are done with a Widelux camera. It’s a panning, still camera. I use the 35mm version. It’s got a 28mm lens that pans nearly 180 degrees. Instead of a traditional shutter, it has a slit that, as the lens pans, exposes the film,” Bridges has said.

Interesting article.

Capitol Rioter Brothers Charged With Assaulting Journalist On Jan. 6

The Justice Department on Thursday arrested and charged two brothers who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, accusing them of assaulting a photographer and stealing the journalist’s camera.

The brothers, 52-year-old Phillip Walker of Pennsylvania and 49-year-old David Walker of New Jersey, have been charged with forcibly taking an item from a person and assaulting a person with the intent to commit another felony. Those are on top of the misdemeanor charges faced by other Jan. 6 rioters.

…NBC News identified her as Erin Schaff, one of three New York Times journalists at the Capitol the day of the riot. She has written about what happened to her that day, describing her fears of being killed.

“Grabbing my press pass, they saw that my ID said The New York Times and became really angry,” she wrote for the Times a day after the insurrection. “They threw me to the floor, trying to take my cameras. I started screaming for help as loudly as I could. No one came. People just watched. At this point, I thought I could be killed and no one would stop them. They ripped one of my cameras away from me, broke a lens on the other and ran away.”
