Brother Bingley is on a bus headed home from New York City at the moment and nowhere near as efficiently as usual. Why? Well, he’s been sending me action shots of “protesting” Hammas supporters with their watermelon balloons glomming up Wall Street outside the New York Stock Exchange, and generally making life miserable for WORKING […]
After Iran launched over 300 missiles and drones against Israel in retaliation for its killing of two Revolutionary Guards Corps leaders at the beginning of April, hundreds, likely thousands, of pro-Palestine (again, they are really pro-Hamas) protesters began demonstrating en masse in New York, Chicago, and on the Golden Gate Bridge in California.

This was one of those stories that I would have had you breaking out your tin foil hat for a few years ago. Or, likewise, you well could have been (and rightly so) accusing me of picking up one too many copies of the “Oprah Gives Birth to Alien Baby!” scandal rags at the checkout […]
Retailers can’t get enough of leaving their hearts in San Francisco, or at least just leaving. Everybody from higher-end retailers like Nordstrom and Saks Off 5th, to global brands Uniqlo, Gap, and H&M, to corner Walgreens and CVS outlets have called it quits on The City That Knows How to Make Everything Worse.

As I described a few days ago, residents and business owners in San Francisco have come up with their own plan for dealing with tent camps which crowd the sidewalks and sometimes even block access to doorways. Over the past few years, they have installed heavy steel planters on the sidewalks. The planters weigh up […]
Times are tough in the video game industry. Unexpected flops and a downturn in the gaming industry due to the end of the pandemic has led to layoffs. Game developers complain of being overworked and underpaid. But, most visibly, there’s a backlash due to DEI and wokeness seeping into every corner of the gaming industry. […]
Did I say that activists in San Francisco were upset about people blocking the sidewalk? No, that can’t be right. What the activists are upset about is “planters” blocking the sidewalk. It’s being called “hostile architecture” and now the activists have convinced the city to crack down on it. San Francisco is ordering the owners […]
