K2: Climbers deny walking by dying sherpa in bid to break record

Climbers: We fully deny whatever we're accused of. We did not walk by a dying sherpa. If there were any sherpas there, we were assured they were already dead, or we probably would have stopped. If the place weren't so full of dying... errr... dead people, we would have made the record.

Biden administration: We never coerced Big Tech into suppressing speech

We might have told them not to allow certain speech, but we did not coerce them.

• ALSO we did not reveal naps can sometimes last 22 hours
• We can't tell the difference between a German Shepherd that attacks staff and an ICBM
• Taking a whizz in Chinese food is not attacking China, Mr. President

ThermionicEmissions would like to thank American Airlines, which charges you for a wheelchair. And Las Vegas Airport, which didn't have any wheelchairs 'at the moment.' Keep up the good work, guys!

Pornhub Sues Texas Over Age Verification Law

Yes, Texas - the state that ate the internet. This ridiculous First Amendment slash would require a symbol on all adult websites. These people must be brought to bear for their own 'wickedness.'  Stop Nannying and have parents watch their own kids - filter if necessary (which also won't help). I don't know if we regular people have legal standing, but everyone concerned about their First Amendment rights should join the suit. We don't have to like it, but we have to have the right to say it (or look longingly at it). 

FCC fines robocaller a record $300M after blocking billions of their scam calls

They'll likely never see it, but this is a great symbolic win for the good guys (us).

NOTE to all women seeking breast implants:

• The size of your implants isn't any business of anybody but yourself, although the largest ones are just comical. Especially when they stand up like two half-basketballs on your chest.
• Just as anybody should pay for good tools, this is your body and you should pay for the best surgeon. If not, you wind up with nipples that look in different directions and surgical scars at the bottom of your breasts. These are unsightly and last forever. This is especially important for women who make their living with exposed breasts. These are your tools: use the best.
• That is the end of ThermionicEmissions' public service announcements for this month.

COMMENTS 

If you have any comments or wish to attack my parentage or lack of skills, use the Comments section. You could just say hi. Send me a nastygram. Tell me you like the blog. Tell me you recommend it to piss people off. All I get is spam comments, which you won't see. If you have a private question, label it private, and it won't get published. Ask me stuff I can't possibly answer.  Thanks!

I really need to say something. Unfortunately I can't remember what it is. It was here last night and I knew it would fit in this space. Yes, at a certain point, I needed bifocals. Now I need a brain implant, or possibly a brain, depending on who you ask.

The other thing I didn't know I wanted to say was that ThermionicEmissions is approximately, nearly, around about 12 years old. Or certainly just about in its 12th year of existence. Still free. Still ad-free. Still slaving over a hot keyboard for you. Still in a design guaranteed to cause blindness. Now with even more sarcasm! Now that's value.

Tell your friends. And enemies.

And blow our enemies to smithereens, in thy mercy.
