It’s my birthday in a couple days
It's weird coming up on the 250'th for the nation and realizing you're going to outlive it. Not that I want to, just that with technofeudaleveragist pseudarchy quickly replacing our capitalism flavored democratic republic I don't see the powers that be being the same people for very long. I think the billionaires won. I think they own us. I'm not going easy though. Watched John Carpenter's "They Live" last night.

Is it really a big deal if Bad Bunny sings in Spanish (gasp, not English!) during the Super Bowl halftime show? A Fox News report suggests so. Find the story in the first link, then read the @AssociatedPress's story on what to expect during his performance:
