DRIVE-BY MEDIA: The same press corps that has breathlessly attacked Secretary Pete Hegseth and FBI Dir Kash Patel for drinking alcohol were seen pilfering and chugging bottles of wine and champagne after the would-be assassin was arrested at the WHCD. Double standard? pic.twitter.com/ghkCZbnDix
Having completed my binge of Mad Men on Sunday, Dear Reader, I decided to embark on another iconic and much praised TV series that I hadn’t gotten round to watching until now. X-Twitter is somewhat boring now that I can’t participate, so on Monday I embarked on season 1 of The Sopranos…
*Not depressed as such, Clicky, but, honestly, being called ‘inauthentic’ is quite insulting. How many other people have an interdimensional dolphin assistant helping them in their library?*
*And an artist? Yes, you are! I’m happy you managed to post some of your collage artwork today… /throws fish… Who’s a clever Clicky?*
*Funny. Tony’s actually talking with one of his crew called ‘Pussy’… /lights up and smokes…*
… This is only a semi-binge as I’m working all day but no doubt I’ll up the effort over the weekend. Currently I’m half way through season 2 and I am really enjoying the show. I immediately knew I would when I noticed that it takes 1.37 minutes of theme tune to get to the start of the episode. I always take note of when ‘137’ or a variation of it crosses my path – as you know, Dear Reader, I am fond of ‘pointless‘ 😉
*No, Andrea Bocelli’s not a soprano, Clicky, but it’s weird he was in the White House singing to Don Trumpleoni, just a week ago ‘cos he was heavily referenced in one of the episodes I watched this evening…*
And then it happened. I popped onto X to see if anything interesting had occurred and – SYNC! – the Mafia is suddenly big, breaking news…

This is MASSIVE.

La Cosa Nostra, the Italian Mafia, were working with current and former NBA players to rig unders on prop bets and had a poker operation with x-ray tables, rigged shuffling machines, and more.
Man who opposes women-only sports decides woman is shaking because she's a "bigot," ignoring the fact his own aggressive and abusive behaviour is bound to have terrified her. https://t.co/b6LwfptV0mpic.twitter.com/F933KjapG3
CNN actually tried to interview a farmer after Occupy Democrats shared his satire video, where he joked about not being able to sell his made-up crops because of Trump. He was literally fvcking around about imaginary vegetables, and they took the bait.
Corey Booker accused FBI Director Kash Patel of being a failed leader: "This might be the last time I have a hearing with you, cause I don’t think you’re long for your job."
