The Gateway Pundit starts things rolling with a hearty "good riddance." RINO Mitch McConnell Delivers His Farewell Speech as Senate Republican Leader — A Legacy of Betrayal and Compromise
McConnell, who has held the reins of Senate GOP leadership since 2007, boasted about his so-called “accomplishments,” which often came at the expense of the conservative values he was elected to uphold.
Gen Z is on board with DOGE: WATCH
In her interviews with students, King focused on four taxpayer-funded university research projects costing millions of dollars: “Gambling Pigeons,” “Sexy Goldfish,” “Honey Bees on Cocaine,” and “Shrimp on Treadmills.”
Students were surprised to learn that all of these projects were real — and publicly funded, no less. “Stop using our money, guys,” one student remarked.
The Other McCain - 2024: The Year the Media Lost
Wishing to squeeze the last ounce of pleasure from this year’s victory, I’ve spent a lot of time watching highlights of Election Night coverage, and one particular moment stood out as Peak Media Bias.
Professor Yamane at Gun Culture 2.0 - Further Thoughts on GUNLORE: Guns are Normal
Early in their introduction, the editors of Gunlore observe: “Considered as a single group, gun owners would be one of the largest lifestyle/hobby-based subcultures in America” (p. 5). This perspective is reminiscent of James Wright’s “Ten Essential Observations” from 1995 and Abigail Kohn’s Shooters in 2004.

Why AI is stupid garbage and everyone in the industry is lying frantically to cover up the truth. (Ars Technica)

Wombat-socho - FMJRA 2.0: A Christmas Break From Baseball
Today’s illo is taken from the Korean Playstation 5 game Stellar Blade, which was caused much pearl-clutching among radical feminists and game “journalists” (but I repeat myself) on account of the main character’s sexy design. Not that that’s ever happened before.

OpenAI's next generation model, GPT-5, is ahead of schedule and coming in under budget. (WSJ / MSN)
Sorry, just kidding. GPT-5 is not working, may never work as planned, and each training run takes six months and costs half a billion dollars.
