Photo of an ear that has not suffered a bullet wound.

Me: "Does this look like an ear that was damaged by a bullet?"
ChatGPT: From what’s visible, the ear and surrounding skin don’t show an obvious, clearly defined scar pattern that unmistakably indicates a prior gunshot injury.

Some good news from the TX Primary.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

No comments needed.

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2026 shortlist includes Lauryn Hill, Shakira and Wu-Tang Clan The shortlist also includes a 1990s pop diva, heavy metal pioneers and a legendary R&B singer and producer.

I would never dispute Ms. Hill's or the WuTang Clan's contributions to popular music, but let's be honest here, they are not 'rock and roll' acts. The org should change their name to the "Contemporary Music Hall of Fame" and move on. 😎 www.npr.org/2026/02/25/n...

Hassett says Fed staff should be 'disciplined' for reporting the US pays tariff costs The Trump economic adviser called it “the worst paper I’ve ever seen in the history of the Federal Reserve System.”

Please object to the relaxing of the CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) Standards. We shouldn't allow car makers to make LESS EFFICIENT VEHICLES which will COST MORE TO OPERATE. This is stupid and inefficient. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. 🫩 www.regulations.gov/commenton/NH...

Oh, Snap! 😹

It seems the constitutionally protected militias have gone AWOL and forgotten to rise up against the tyrannical government. 🤔
