Piers Gets Dumped

Image
 Piers Morgan .  Did he jump, or was he pushed?  I agreed with Piers on the subject of Megxit.  But Primadonna Piers ended up cancelled. Piers  has been a super show host and advocate of Free Speech.  I really enjoyed his logic, wit and take downs.  I think his opinions were politically inconvenient at this time. I think he made some people rather uncomfortable.  Particularly in the corridors of power in the media house ITV. Piers might be great at what he does, but no matter how good you think you are,  you should never assume you are  indispensable.  Stay humble folks!

I hope he comes to his senses soon and rebuilds the relationships he has sacrificed to establish his independence. They are the meaning for his existence.  We emerge from family to return t...

Eddie Izzard offers to step in for Prince Philip.

  I am appalled at social media pundits willing Prince Philip to die before the Oprah interview so they can suggest that Prince Philip died of a broken heart.  It's the sort of insanity that indicates how dysfunctional and unhinged society has become.  Musing about this and 'The Emperor's New Clothes', it occurred to me that people will believe anything if enough people around them are agreeing with a bad idea.  That's how social justice works.  Create enough traction around a fallacy on social media and the world just goes along with it as Gospel Truth. That's why stand up comedians are so important in society.  They must call out this sort of nonsense for the bullshit it really is.  Eddie Izzard is perfect for this job.  Sure he is trans, but he is more of a man than 80% of the males on earth.  The guy is an Adonis, a Superman, an Ubermensch, but happily acknowledges he is a transvestite.  Stand-up comedians don't consider themselves t...
