Geeking After Dark

It's been quite a trip.  "So long and thanks for all the fish"

Bart and Norma discuss Florida being Floriduh, Epstein victims speaking out, autism has an OFFICIAL SINGLE CAUSE thanks to RFK Jr, and Howard Stern isn't leaving Sirius. Yet. Also, Trump was an FBI SNITCH, NOT A KIDDIE DIDDLER! Well, that implies he was a diddler, but was caught and turned snitch to get off the hook...regardless, the White House officials are insisting they don't know what the hell the idiot Speaker is talking about, so Johnson said he didn't know what he was talking about. The real reason is Mike Johnson wanted MAGA to have something to use as an excuse, but he won't acknowledge that.

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss school...well, public school...words as weapons, data centers in PA revisited, Texas wants a theocracy (yay Handmaid's Tale!), Cracker Barrel pretend Conservative whining, and Pamela Anderson apparently likes pickles? You can buy some and help a wildlife sanctuary!

Bart and Norma discuss some feedback and what little news there is this week. My highlight is an article about the morons who actually thought Russia was a nice place to live until they criticized their lives there...big mistake, dumbass.

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss zoo donations, nukes on the moon, Dean Caine now starring as real-life Homelander?, the iPad as a laptop replacement, and that's about it, so...mainly crappy people who happen to be actors of fondly remembered characters?

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss Disney, a new Star Trek story about Khan featuring Tuvok and Sulu, a Tennessee school district doesn't like the optics of teachers asking for supplies the school won't get for them, American Eagle is courting the MAGA Nazi crowd with their latest ad about superior genes, and a reminder that leaded gas was poisoning people for half a century because some companies loved their profit more than not killing customers...also, voting has consequences, you're experiencing them, please stop complaining about getting what you wanted.

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss what few headlines have passed our way this week, which mostly was fallout of pissing off Stephen Colbert and the South Park gang, and Hulk Hogan died, countering the idea that terrible horrible people live longer.

Bart and Norma discuss her recent surgery to explain her speaking issues, Superman is too "woke" (what the hell does that even mean?!), a Christian camp washes away after being built in a flood-prone area that lacks flood warning equipment in an area so Republikan they refused to used Biden-sourced funds to upgrade warning systems, Epstein not only had no "files" but he didn't even exist let alone kill himself!

Bart and Norma discuss some general chatter, but there's some focus on idiots. I suppose many of our topics are about idiots, so we'll narrow this one down to having a "political" party that sooner believes in magic weather machines murdering Christian conservatives instead of climate change being ignored.

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss rice, rich people wedding problems, farming, and streaming show schedules. General discussion. It's somewhat quiet compared to previous episodes, but still some WTF-ery from people that hate poor people because they're poor.

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss mostly school-related issues, but there are a couple of news items. Surprisingly not centered on just Trump bombing Iran and being surprised that it didn't go the way he thought it would. Oh, and Spaceballs 2 is on the roster for upcoming movie projects!

This one was pretty much in limited topic, moreso than usual. We focused on educational shortcomings and protest. Because that's the highlight of the weekend. Idiots, and people protesting idiots. I'm betting Trump is going to be bigly mad that his big boy birthday parade was a giant f@&king flop, and we're going to feel the brunt of his tantrum...

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss high school mascots, nepo-relationships in high places, the White House Fox News venue, shows that stream but still aren't released on a decent schedule and apparently there was a WWDC event recently...

Bart and Norma discuss pennies finally going away, people who are friendly to a fault, and Elon should not be allowed to give presentations in addition to not being interviewed. He's an idiot that spent his life failing upwards. I will choose that hill to die on...Musk is super wealthy despite his lack of intelligence. He's a white-supremacist man-child in my opinion and have yet to see any indication of his brilliance.

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss cars, vacuums, and humidifiers spying on you and your home, along with the continued use of discontinued Windows and schools combined with "back in my day..."

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss floppies in airports, Trump's still bad, the conclave has concluded and Last of Us is a good show. Also, Farscape is a good show, but Norma hates it because she doesn't appreciate good shows.

Bart and Norma discuss pay for sportsball players vs. actual people doing work for society as a whole, Thunderbolts is released, remember Mike Lindell? He's still apparently an idiot, this time in legal circles. Well, again in legal circles. Republicans refuse to agree that it's bad to deport American children with cancer. Trump wants to be Pope. We now all live in an Onion article.

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss JD Vance's alleged murder spree, coal isn't "clean", language models lie because artificial intelligences aren't, and life brings giggles when storms get a "red state" to beg for money they condemn others for trying to get...and are finally told "no".

Bart, Norma and Voretaq discuss Jurassic Wolves, MAGA firebugs, Elon still can't play games online, kids in school need A1 for the secret sauce of success, the White House is lying about Trump being supernaturally healthy and more anti-US travel advisory and anti-immigrant news...land of the free!

Bart and Norma discuss tax day (a still looming dark cloud), more celebrity deaths, Trump hates his portrait which for some reason he has an odd fixation against, we mentioned in passing the Maitland Ward and Danielle Fishel "feud" (if there is one), and there were protests against President Musk and VP Trump over the weekend that seemed to go pretty well...
