Somehow, the Four Seasons returned
Federal contracts reveal Customs and Border Protection is spending $75,000 to house their dogs at the Four Seasons Pet Resort.
The pet resort advertises "luxury suites," "daily doggy ice cream," and spa services such as an "oatmeal coconut oil skin finish."

"Nothing to hide" is meaningless when the search criteria are arbitrary and not subject to debate.
It also shows that anyone can be caught in America’s surveillance dragnet; there is no safety in the idea that you have nothing to worry about if you have nothing to hide.

New Sunn O))) album coming in April.
It's impossible to explain why I like this 'band.' A lot of it probably has to do with how weird and bizarre they seemed, when I bought ØØ Void on a total whim, because of a demo they had on StonerRock.com.

Finally, a news channel for and by Chivers
New: CBS News seems to be preparing a new segment called "Whiskey Fridays with Tony Dokoupil," per sources.
Some staff were only first made aware of it as they encountered CBS testing out set designs of a faux-stocked bar in the newsroom, featuring a large sponsor banner for Jack Daniels.

Seeing all these videos of ICE goons brutalizing people reminds me of something I saw somewhere:
"Women are only more emotional than men if you don't consider anger an emotion."
These are sad, resentful creatures, being paid and otherwise encouraged to embrace that part of their nature.

NEW YORK (AP) — Scott Adams, the 'Dilbert' cartoonist who ridiculed office life and was later dropped for racist remarks, dies at 68.
