Over half of the taxpayers in our great country would enjoy punching this meat-head in the face, so forget about ever voting for that fool on the hill. This is lots more like you're fired, and never going to be hired.

Whom We’d Most Like To Punch… Earning a whopping 54% of the vote, Donald Trump was the runaway winner for the individual most deserving of a pop in the kisser.

This according to WalletHub's 2016 Taxpayer Survey. They asked respondents "Who would you most like to punch in the face?" and provided them with the seven choices.

HAPPY ALWAYS

Submitted by ub on

Don't worry, be happy... CITY IMAGES is delighted to join in the celebration of this year’s International Day of Happiness. But, to be honest, the real focus should be on the other 364 days of the year.

The gay spirit is within all of us, and by celebrating and strengthening it, we find peace, tolerance, and respect. We can work together to create an environment where people can truly flourish and fulfill their human potential.

We can all be part of a community brought together by the desire to share the quality of happiness.

New York City appears to be crumbling right from under our feet, according to some. Many are expressing their disappointment with the subway system, while others are increasingly concerned with the level of violence underground and on the streets.

I have lived and worked in NYC for decades and the situation appears to be getting more serious by the day, and night. The only way the situation is going to improve is wehn New Yorke residents realize its up to US.

Diversity's Failure

To my former colleagues in broadcast news:

This is, arguably, the biggest political story since at least 1968: the potential presidential candidacy, on a major Party ticket, of an open racist.

This article postulates that we need more journalists of color to call Trump out.
We also need more white journos to stop dealing in false equivalence, and point out the naked racist fear and white nationalism propelling Trump.

Seasonable Weather Madness

Submitted by ub on

Severe thunderstorms are possible today over portions of the southern United States. Colder weather is expected across much of the central and eastern United States by the end of the week, with high temperatures near or slightly below normal for this time of year. WHAT?

A double-whammy cold front from Canada will bring the mercury into the low 30s tomorrow night, with some of the coldest weather of the month and possibly a snowstorm just in time for the start of spring.
