Fuck Facebook: I’m dumping ’em

By Paul | Published May 10, 2018

It’s official: I’m dumping Facebook (a.k.a. Facefuck). What started out as a fun place to connect with actual friends online, has become a swirling storm of shit, wrapped in Mark Zuckerberg’s lies (he has, after all, been “apologizing” for online privacy problems since before there even was a Facebook…). And let’s not forget that Mark […]

Donald Trump: The “I” of any storm

By Paul | Published August 30, 2017

Dave Pell nails it at NextDraft: President Trump doesn’t get to be graded on a curve. The Texas visit was a complete failure. No mention of the victims. No empathy for the survivors.
