A HOMELESS ENCAMPMENT IN GLENWOOD SPRINGS HAD 60,000 POUNDS OF GARBAGE IN IT And why is this okay? Why do we continue to allow these things to spring up and remain until they reach this level?

HERE ARE THE COLLECTIVE NOUNS FOR 50 DIFFERENT ANIMALS I have no idea why I find this so fascinating, yet here we are. Want to know what a group of owls is called? Click here!

SO HOW ARE THINGS IN AFGHANISTAN GOING? About as well as you could expect. The Afghan forces that we spent 20 years training have collapsed completely and the Taliban has taken over many areas already. They are murdering women and children at a rapid clip as they try to murder anyone who cooperated with the democratically elected government. A group of girls who had the nerve to go to school were murdered. This is where anyone who tries to tell me that we are not a better country than places like this can go pound sand. The culture that leads to the murder of women who can read needs to be wiped off the face off the earth. It would be nice if some of their fellow Arabs felt like helping, but I don't foresee that happening.

Just in case you are concerned about how you are going to get your nicotine fix, don't worry, Phillip Morris is well invested in vaping products to do just that.

I'M ODDLY COMFORTED BY THIS COLUMN ABOUT AMERICANS HATING EACH OTHER Because the end conclusion is that we MUST get involved in knowing people not like us, but this time of strife and division is NOT uncommon in our free society. Again, oddly comforted.

THE BABYLON BEE REPORTS ON OUT-OF-WORK MASCOTS And it's funny and brilliant, as usual. Read about all the culturally inappropriate mascots now looking for work here.

ONE MORE TIME, IF YOU'VE HAD COVID, YOU'VE GOT IMMUNITY The studies are coming in fast and furious and they ALL SAY THE SAME THING. Covid immunity after infection lasts. Meaning you don't need a vaccine if you've already recovered from covid. Repeat, if you've already had covid, you are good. Read more here.

A LITTLE KITTY IS INTRODUCED TO TOM AND JERRY And this is absolutely fantastic.
