Welcome.

Although removing absurdity still holds a certain place in my heart, I'm moving on to other things. I may add what should actually be there in some cases. Sometimes the focus some have on salacious material leaves out more pertinent information.

I'll probably go over various things in science and see if I can rewrite them to be better understood. I'm not a world-class researcher by far, but this is still one of my interests.

Some people think that everything printed in a newspaper has to be true even if the article itself states its doubts. Some also don't understand that many newspapers reprint articles and that doesn't mean that they've independently verified it. Some online publications actually reprint blog sites. It's important to realize what the original source is and not just who reprinted it.

I've often found it incredibly funny how many outside the U.S. think that all of our media is controlled by the government like theirs tends to be. Or how some group Western European with U.S. media to call it Western press. The U.S. press isn't anything like Western European press. Those in the U.S. who think the press is controlled by the government I include among the tin-foil hat brigade.
