However, if you listen to non-dance, non-soft-rock, or older music, you probably wonder why VEVO channels’ “Related Videos” are anything but related. You may put on some Alice in Chains or Nirvana, but be [...]

Diane Medved at TownHall writes: Help me here. What is it about “virtual goods”–imaginary own-ables in online community or commercial fake-world games–that leads Americans to shell out a projected $1.6 billion this year in our jobless economy?

I’ve always maintained that there is an agenda behind the media establishment’s mocking and opposing faith, religion, family, and culture – that being the lacking created by promiscuous sex, abuse of drugs and alcohol, and other superficial phenomenon creates psychological voids in one’s life, which can be temporarily “fixed” by buying the products in the [...]

From the Washington Post a week ago: In a world without air conditioning, a warmer, more flexible, more relaxed workplace helps make summer a time to slow down again. Three-digit temperatures prompt siestas. Code-orange days mean offices are closed. Shorter summer business hours and month-long closings — common in pre-air-conditioned America — return. Post-A.C., Congress [...]

Don’t you hate it when you have to do something but both people refuse to cooperate? They start parroting the same shit back and forth for over a month and neither party cares to do anything about it. Meanwhile stuff still has to get done. It is incredibly frustrating especially when you’re having a hard [...]

From Lew Rockwell: This online video game, consisting of hundreds of thousands of players who control every aspect of the game universe, just suffered an enormous economic calamity due to player-controlled bankers engaging in Fractional Reserve Banking. When players got wind of the fraudulent practice, it prompted a bank run. Minus central banking, Fractional Reserve [...]
