Do you think Governor Morrisey and his. MAGA minions understand the irony that West Virginia exists specifically because the people here didn't own slaves and didn't want to be part of the Confederacy, yet we're one of the few states that officially removed Juneteenth, the final emancipation of […]

The biggest problem with AI is the reflection of the worst of society in the responses. AI is not smarter than humans... Just faster. It can potentially reach the right answer but, just like any human, it can quickly be led astray. It might take a human years to be recruited into a cult but an […]

46% of adults struggled to afford healthcare in 2025... That was *before* insurance premiums skyrocketed in 2026. We shouldn't be spending money on ballrooms, arches, UFC fights, wars that may or may not be wars, swimming pools, or putting names on things where they don't belong. We should be […]
