Gaslighting America with Erin Burnett  ‘Does he think we’re living on Mars?’: Burnett stunned by McCarthy statement - CNN Video CNN’s Erin Burnett lambasts the Republican Party and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy for removing Rep.

The Worst Characters in the MCU

From Esquire magazine, designed to piss you off at least once. But what fun! The Worst Characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Ranked You already know that the Avengers would be better off without Hawkeye and Star-Lord. We made a couple more cuts.

It’s too bad they didn’t include characters from the X-Men universe.

 

Dead Dog’s Eyeball

Here’s K. McCarty covering the late Daniel Johnston. It was released in 1995 (when Daniel was still alive). The album is called Dead Dog’s Eyeball. It’s really moving. Daniel was an odd but emotionally astute songwriting.
