In a week that saw America pulling out of Afghanistan, new evidence of the attempted GOP coup, Crackhead Mike's Lie-A-Palooza, and Texas advancing their fight against democracy; Cognitive Dissidents Amy Witry, "The Black Voice of Reason" Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson chose to take on edible emojis, things you can smell, potent potables, and a number of other things that probably won't be Jeopardy categories anytime soon.

With folks in the GOP diving full on into their authoritarian fantasy world, it's a good time for Cognitive Dissidents Ed Greer, Klee Wiggins, “The Black Voice of Reason” Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson to address important questions like, "How do conservatives win at the long game without any foresight?" "Why do liberals engage in infighting instead of working together to move forward?" And most importantly, "Are birds real?" All this and more in your weekly dose of newsy infotainment… GET

DELTA’S DAWN (WHAT’S THAT VIRUS THAT YOU CAUGHT?)

2021/07/26

As it blankets America, the Delta Variant seems to be strongest in states that shun vaccines, education, and reality. Reality, however, finds its way into the hearts, minds, and lungs of those who fear it most. So when it comes to COVID rates, it looks like The South's will rise again.

They say that negotiating with Congressional Republicans is like going down on a water buffalo. It’s pointless, reckless, and bound to leave a bad taste in your mouth. But, by opening the door to a bipartisan infrastructure bill, Biden is letting the GOP know the deal is theirs to blow.

While the GOP works to apply the old “print the legend” adage to future history books, they also prove themselves to be crappy gift givers by totally fucking up the present.

Dismayed that “Pride Month” has nothing to do with their beloved Proud Boys, the GOP is working to erode trans rights. But they’re not singling trans people out... they're making sweeping efforts to erode *everybody’s* rights.

THE GOP AND THE HIGH (HOLLOW) COST OF LIVING

2021/05/30

The calendar tells us that this is the weekend Americans honor those who have given their lives in service to our country but, considering GOP reluctance to investigate the 1/6 insurrection that killed multiple police officers, maybe we should call it “Short-Term Memorial Day.” Cognitive Dissidents Jim Coughlin, “The Black Voice of Reason” Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson share their thoughts on the holiday and a number of other topics while delivering your weekly dose of newsy infotainment!

It was a big week in the news with Cyber Ninjas checking Arizona ballots for bamboo, Mitch McConnell acting like the dumbest Bond villain ever, and the sedition caucus launching their white power tour. But between a wayward Chinese rocket and the sheer joy of being in the same room for the first time in over a year, Cognitive Dissidents Jim Coughlin, “The Black Voice of Reason” Tymon Shipp, and Dr. David Robinson discussed... well, pretty much everything else.

While a number of Americans saw the Chauvin verdict as a sign that we’re going to start holding police accountable for their misdeeds, it seems that a number of cops saw it as a sign that they need to get all the murdering out of their systems before he gets sentenced.
