I was so relaxed and fell asleep yesterday while watching one of the funnier sitcom marathons I have enjoyed in a long time.

There is nothing like laughter, and iconic TV sitcoms always put smiles on our faces and lift all of us whenever we seek a boost of happiness.

Hell freezes over

Criminal defendant, rapist, financial and moral fraud wins in Iowa.

For a few years, most of the world suffered through the psychological and economic devastation of the pandemic. Average workers emerged – quite remarkably – in almost the same shape as before the Covid-19 virus hit.

But that shape wasn’t all that great. Economic inequality remains quite terrible. Wage increases are only recently (and barely) outstripping inflation. And people are as angry at corporate elites, politicians and institutions of all kinds as they’ve ever been. Labor union support is soaring.

All this helps explain why former President Donald Trump romped to victory in the frigid Iowa GOP caucuses yesterday despite barely running a campaign in the state and skipping all the debates.

As the US enters the 2024 campaign, Russia’s Putin wants to fill the 24-hour news cycle with stupidity from his controlled puppet.

Here is an interesting perspective on the role of political figures as mannequins or puppets, particularly in the context of media manipulation. The historical references to the military use of mannequins add depth to our analogy. Worthless information overload.
