Far from being a recipe for peace on earth, a new study for the Netherlands suggests that the “love hormone” oxytocin, triggered by the party drug MDMA, only makes you love people in your in-group, and contributes to conflict with outsiders
George W. Bush has been known to paint himself in bath tubs. But now the former President painted Pootie Poot, and other world leaders.. Those paintings have been revealed to the world..
So will it calm down Putin and others hellbent on creating world war 3? Will it …bring peace on earth?
Or will DUBYA just go back to his old painting schtick: Tub painting..
Rub a Dubya Dub, is that Pootie Poot’s soul in your tub?
Today’s MY DAILY DOODLE, yet again inspired by my fictious town of Bellicose Junction and its sordid residents. Today, Lars Nelson shows off his stimulator. A Mary Todd Lincoln blowup doll awaits him in the background..

Remember, it’s all fake.
Right????
What surprised me was how bad some numbers are… such as the giant WABC in New York being down 44% and KABC in Los Angeles being down 52%..
Even country music and sports channels are down..
A housing complex clerk mistook an elderly suicide jumper’s body for an April Fools’ Day joke before the woman’s body was nonchalantly disposed in a nearby dumpster under the assumption her corpse was a mannequin.
The White House sought primetime air the day Obamacare hit 7 million signups.
The networks did not oblige.
Instead, Obama had to cut into the ELLEN daytime program to celebrate.
SPACE JUNK ALMOST HITS THE TRUNK
The Space Station had to dodge space junk—again.. And here on earth, a skydiver was doing his thing when a meteorite narrowly missed hitting him! Here is the video of the near hit. Clyde Lewis pointed out on his Facebook page that if a meteorite almost hit a man, he believes that a meteor may still be the blame for the missing flight 370.
Scientists say that Yellowstone will not erupt.. They are dismissing, especially, the videos purporting that bison have been ‘running for their lives’..
And then there is this new information: The temperature at Yellowstone’s lakes is +20C (above normal)..60 quakes were registered in the area with the increased water temperatures..
Also, to quote the scientist, nevermore: Scientists are also telling people now that the Ring of Fire quakes lately are not related..
I don’t know if I really believe this.. Leno trounced Letterman for years.
The bottom line is that David Letterman is 67, has a young child, and in all honesty, stopped being cutting edge and funny years ago..
In a sense, Letterman should not have renewed his contract in 2013. It seemed like he gave up a few years back..
But I will still say in his time, and in my own youth, Letterman was the funniest person on TV and changed the entire game of late night post-Carson.
WHISKEY IN THE JAR-O
The Queen meets the Pope.. and the Queen actually was 20 minutes late! But I suppose her gift smoothed things over: A bottle of whiskey..
Get ready Vatican.. a whiskey-enthused Pope may soon legalize female priests!
This is a big one..
Bill Clinton told Jimmy Kimmel that aliens may one day be known. Maybe the moon Enceladus is a start of space life..

Kids these days..
A 375-pound drone crashed today in Lickdale, Penn., coming down between an elementary school and a hotel.
This is the future.. Let’s face it.. accidents will happen, and most likely more often in the beginning phases of the new Drone Order… The sky will be falling.
My Daily Doodle.
You’re looking at Poppy Largent and Desmond Tata. They just had a big celebration of global warming in Bellicose Junction.
Bellicose Junction is a fictional town that existed in the mind of me and a few friends for over a decade. And it also, most likely, is in your psyche too.. a town or imbeciles and rejects, with no purpose or direction, aimlessly walking through live polluting every step of their path.
Oh, and eating lots and lots of LLAMA meat.
Ayden appears to be getting set to strike..
He has been parading around the house tonight loudly proclaiming “I DON’T WANT MY UNDERWEAR! I DON’T WANT MY UNDERWEAR!”
His demands include:
1) Diapers.
2) Wipes.
He does not want to watch Thomas the Train, as that is for babies…
The conditions of potty training are just too demanding.
THAT’S ABOUT ALL FOLKS..
Seems like pretty big news here.. David Letterman is going to retire in 2015..
Some have long believed that Bill Clinton knew the secrets of aliens .. some who surrounded Clinton while he was in office have since become proponents of disclosure, the act of releasing all evidence of aliens to the public.. And last night during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel, Bill Clinton said some very interesting things concerning aliens.. .. the words of Bill Clinton:
We know now we live in an ever expanding universe. We know there are billions of stars and planets literally out there — and the universe is getting bigger. We know from our fancy telescopes that just in the last two years more than 20 planets have been identified outside our solar system that seem to be far enough away from their suns — and dense enough — that they might be able to support some form of life.
He continues..
But if we were visited some day, I wouldn’t be surprised. I just hope that it’s not like ‘Independence Day,’ the movie — that it’s, you know, a conflict
I am with him..I agree. And so does Podesta!
Disclosure folks.. I can feel it coming.
THE RUNNING OF THE ELK!
The Internet world is alive about the video of elk running at Yellowstone—a video that I posted but also actively questioned.. The most read article concerning this is from the EPOCH TIMES, which paints an alarming picture that animals in general are leaving Yellowstone and the end is nigh.. Perhaps a little perspective is needed. The reason I posted some doubts about this video is it was a ‘too good to be true’ end times type of thing.. Elk running for their lives from the supervolcano about to blow! AND then a 4.8 hits the next day.. the timing could not have been better.
BUT.. Sharon Hill from DOUBTFUL NEWS adds a bit of, well, doubt, to the story.. and common sense.. and logical questions that maybe can ‘bring you back’ from the cliff and the eve of destruction. Elk running for their lives. Or maybe… just running?
Love this video.. It’s dead on accurate about CNN and their constant ‘breaking news’ graphic that accompanies EVERY story regardless of whether or not it’s breaking news..
Let’s keep that banner for the real stuff CNN?
This is a scene from Chile in the wake of the big 8.2 quake
And the way of even more since!
There was a another big earthquake off of Chile’s coastline, the same location as the 8.2 struck.. it was 7.4 .. And right after, a 7.6 shook! There may have been more.. I am actually losing count. And with a ring of fire that looks like a Christmas tree, how can one NOT lose count?
Still more questions than answers..
Still so many changing facts..
Still it believing any story until this is all done
But so far we know it’s beyond tragic and somehow eerie that another shooting happened at this same base.. The cursed Fort Hood..
KCEN-TV in Central Texas is reporting multiple people have been injured Wednesday in a shooting at Fort Hood.
INITIAL NBC REPORTS SAY TWO SHOOTERS.. NBC later changed it to 1 shooter and other networks seemed to converge on the single shooter story..
DALLAS NBC affiliate reports 8 people injured and two reported shooters.. Other networks saying 2 confirmed..
MORE COMING…
I wrote a short post on March 19 2014 about TIME magazine and various other sources laughing at medical conspiracy theories.. That day those news orgs were poking fun at anyone who thought African Americans were injected with HIV. I pointed out facts of the past to illustrate why such conspiracy theories were held dear in some minds, such as info that the government injected some with syphilis and plutonium..
And now today, there is real to believe that real medical conspiracies continue.. The government has been performing dangerous experimentation, using dangerous pollutants on human beings in tests..
According to the information, the tests took place between the year 2010 and 2011. here is how the DAILY CALLER sums it up:
The EPA conducted five experiments in 2010 and 2011 to look at the health effects of particulate matter, or PM, and diesel exhaust on humans. The IG’s report found that the EPA did get consent forms from 81 people in five studies. But the IG also found that “exposure risks were not always consistently represented.”
“Further, the EPA did not include information on long-term cancer risks in its diesel exhaust studies’ consent forms,” the IG’s report noted. “An EPA manager considered these long-term risks minimal for short-term study exposures” but “human subjects
And this:
No one was killed during the test, but a source close to the issue says that one test subject — a 58-year-old obese woman with medical problems and a family history of heart disease — was ordered to go to the hospital by the EPA after being exposed to “ambient air pollution particles” in October 2010.
It always fascinates me that so many can get angry about testing unsuspecting animals but turn a blind eye to humans being subjected to dangerous experimentation? OH.. and they tested this on children, too. CHILDREN. And then when people rightly point out real medical conspiracies, they are put down as conspiracy mongering tin foil hat wearing sky is falling nutjobs?
Until you answer that, I will be adjusting my tin foil hat to encompass the new news of this medical conspiracy non-theory.
Cue the Johnny Cash song… Ever disaster needs theme music..
Clearly it shows why the government moves as slow as it does..
This is an obvious rumor at this point.. but there is an ABC News Tweet about Chile tonight saying that 300 prisoners may have escaped from prison in the aftermath of the big 8.2 quake
Minister of interior: Armed forces dispatched after 300 prisoners reportedly escape Iquique, Chile, prison after quake - @JoshuaHoyos
— ABC News (@ABC) April 2, 2014
Whether true or not, the story has taken off like wildfire on the Internets.. and here on my site, too.
To prove just how strong the Chile quake was, get this: The image you see here is a seismograph from LITTLE ROCK ARKANSAS.. the Chile quake actually registered on this .. amazing..
Tsunami warnings in Chile
Art Bell posted a message today that he is coming back.
If it’s an April Fools joke, there may be lots of Facebook unfriending afterwards..
When I told my father about the possible return, he didn’t even want to hear about it.. My dad was the biggest Bell fan for years. Until the SIRIUS XM departure.. he felt slighted. Lots of fans did.
The ones who held on may be even more slighted if this turns out to be a joke or they have to wait another year and a half to hear a potential show..
On those fleeing animals at Yellowstone…. an interesting video perspective on it from Paul Joseph Watson..
Oh boy… Here we go. April fools will be playing talking heads all over tonight’s cable ‘news’ shows…
I debated whether or not I should spread the word of a horrible crime .. does me posting about it continue the horror? I don’t know. But I can tell you this, when I read the story of a young innocent baby boy dying in a hospital in Jermyn PA, I teared up.. I will tell you why in a second..
We know this: 10-month-old Silas was brutally beaten by his mother’s boyfriend. Charges have been filed against Eddie Widdick ..Baby Silas had brain injuries, a rib fracture, and hemorrhages in both eyes.. he had bruises on his head and torso.. Widdick is now in in a jail in Lackawanna County on $150,000 bail.
Child crimes have always happened—I get that..
But my inquisitive mind read the comments on the Citizens VOICE newspaper page.. one commenter mentioned that Widdick’s Facebook page was still active.. It is. I poured through some recent history as the page was not yet deleted and information was not set to private.. While I certainly will not post the photos, but a number of posts actually had baby Silas in them.. There are comments on that post saying RIP and “you sick F*&” to Widdick.. So many images of the baby were beautiful.. But Widdick, the charged man, eventually beat this child to death days after many of the pictures were taken, prosecutors say..
There is something very macabre about what I did.. In a sense, I feel I peeled back an onion, but when I did it was rotten to the core.. I feel very guilty about seeing these photos. First off, they are someone else’s private collection—though on Facebook so often people don’t realize how much private stuff just gets put out there for all to see, including this.. And secondly, obviously, the innocence of any child is so clear, especially when a horrible crime happens to him or her. This baby is no different.
I just want to forget I read this headline.. I want to forget I saw those Facebook images.. I just want to eliminate the sadness from my brain.
I don’t think I can..
Remember when every laughed at the woman who sued after being burned by hot coffee at McDonalds? She was the villain everyone loved to hate.
Fast forward to 5 minutes into this video and see what really happened to this ‘money hungry villain’..
I loathe April Fools Day. I have always loathed April Fools Day, from the time when children used to scream ‘April Fools!” in shrill voices after completing some type of unfunny prank to today.
Discovery will strand eight people in the wilderness for 42 days with only the clothes on their backs for a new live television event. STORY: NBC News’ Willie Geist to Host Discovery’s ‘Everest Jump Live’
This pretty much seals the deal for me: I am done with TV. If this show gets good ratings, I may be done with humans, too. Intelligence has stopped evolving folks.
This looks SO much better than the awful TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURLES movie..
Discern away.. prove this video wrong.
It’s creepy nonetheless.
Have a nice night.
Sleep tight.
Suddenly Kim Jong Un gets the world’s attention ..
I have noticed that so many either love or hate her.. there’s no middle ground.
My take is that she is hardcore mean and nasty, but I always laugh even if I tune in for just a minute.
But if this story is true, you won’t have her to kick around anymore…
Paging Lisa Lampanelli! You may be next.
Fairy tales..
Or true stories..?
The SMART SET from Drexel University has an interesting little story (and humorously sarcastic) about whether or not the car killed with fairies .. you know, those little creatures who plagued so many in history?
Fairies are believed, by some, to be real.. to be actual little creatures that appear in legends and folklore.
But it’s not just stories from old times.. those old times are still a ‘flyin.. and the same fairy flying tomorrow never seems to be dyin’..
In 2011, an out of work bricklayer in Mexico said he caught a fairy and preserved it in formaldehyde..
Other websites are dedicated to the idea that fairies are real ..
BUT ALAS, should you see a fairy, perhaps it’s best not to surround yourself with their radiant light. They could be of darkness, and perhaps there to steal your soul with their evil..
That .. or they are JUST NOT REAL.
(When will this stop being ‘breaking news’?) New debris has been sighted but no confirmed signs of the Flight 370..
I think there is a larger story we are missing: The oceans are apparently (and obviously) littered with garbage and ‘debris’ as far as the eye can see..
Nice work humans.
Meanwhile, while you were trying to access the Health Care website, Obama was eatin’ good in the neighborhood of King Abdullah, as photos prove..
I am constantly amazed by elephants.. And this article equally interested me.
And besides that nice little story, my GOD, ELEPHANTS VS HUMAN should be the next SYFY special…Or just put a camera on an elephant’s tusk in West Bengal and see the action as it rampages the streets…
Something is weird here.. Every single story and every single “fact” we thought we knew or know about missing Flight 370 is wrong.
And now even the LAST WORDS we thought we knew have been changed!
It went from “all right goodnight” to “goodnight, Malaysian three seven zero.”
Is anything real?
In honor of RONAN FARROW benig beaten by the GOLDEN GIRLS.. Next time MSNBC may want plug Farrow with ads featuring the whole gang from that retirement from Florida..
The DAILY NEWS says,
Farrow, 28 — the opinionated, blue-eyed son of actress Mia Farrow and either Woody Allen or Frank Sinatra (even Farrow’s not sure which) — has been a disaster for MSNBC. The channel took the frequent cable-show guest and handed him his own program, “Ronan Farrow Daily,” which premiered in late February.
“He sort of stinks on TV,” an MSNBC source told Confidenti@l. “He hasn’t turned out to be the superstar they were hoping for.”
And to show just how bad things are, Neilson rated the show 708th place and was beat out by a “Golden Girls” rerun on the Hallmark Channel.
Seriously.. this is happening again!? People trying to apply for Monday’s midnight OBAMACARE deadline are being greeted again with the website ‘currently unavailable’ messages.. this is beginning to feel like a big joke—maybe it’s just an April fools prank and the website will announce on the 1st of April, “April Fools, you got until midnight tonight instead!”
Well.. the war never did end.
As if Kim Jong Un and fake stories about mandations of his haircut is not worrying enough, this happened hours ago: North Korea and South Korea traded fire during military drills—real fire. Real artillery.
Residents on five front line islands in South Korea were in shelters for hours ..
California.. They have a beautiful state and, besides Hollywood, the area is filled with good people. And they are being told that up to 18,000 of them could die if a big one hit..
The UK DAILY MAIL points out, in our selfie culture, it’s sort of what everyone did after the series of weekend quakes: Take selfies with the overturned materials behind them.. They didn’t do THAT in 1906! OR … did they? My God.. I think they did!?
After I read the DAILY MAIL piece about the selfie culture, I found so many photos from the great 1906 San Francisco earthquake in which people were posing in front of rubble.. ruins.. and remnants. I think it’s because, in a sense, the selfie is just a piece of human nature.
It documents the fact that “you were there” .. that you saw what you saw, and for the record, you lived through it.. Just as those who wore those cloaks and vestments of the 1900s did as they sternly posed for the camera with debris and death behind them, we do the same now.. Perhaps nothing has really changed. Maybe nothing has ever been the same.. But the selfie has always been there.
Even honest Abe loved to get his photo taken. I bet central bank notes that he would have also had an INSTAGRAM to compete with Justin Bieber.
And that soldiers would have taken selfies on the battlefield at Gettysburg..
Then again, as we see here, sometimes the selfie gets tasteless.. the Arizona Wildcats lost and the streets went wild, with students ‘rioting’ over the pointless nonsense that is called college sports. And selfies were all the rage, along with the actual ‘rage’ over nothing in the streets..
I completely agree with the BLOODY DISGUSTING blog.. these ads for PS2 (like the one you see here) are just awful.. just sick.. disturbing.. almost too much.
But also strangely amazing, beautiful, and memorizing.
And I guess that is just how advertising is meant to be…
Except this one. This one really hits me the wrong way:
On Thursday, 10,000 Russian troops began a drill simulating the massive use of nuclear missiles.
It’s only just a drill … only just a drill.. only just a drill.
BUT as Ronald Reagan would say…. ‘we begin bombing in five minutes’
Though I am glad to see that NICK still slimes people..
I bet few folks these days would remember why that tradition happened.
The epic NOAH movie is storming through box offices.. Christians flocking to it in bigger numbers than Sunday mass. But noteworthy are some Christian perspectives, as this one by Matt Walsh, on why it’s a terrible movie if you look at compared to the ‘book version.’ Walsh points out that NOAH was made by an atheist and that rock people were bad guys. Along with weird love angles. I had no inclination to see this film. After this review, now I may just want to..
The New York TIMES called NOAH ‘less epic’ than a horror movie..
NOAH seems to be slated to have a $47 mil opening for the weekend.. Nikki Finke wondered if the Southern California quakes made NOAH seem a little too real to see in theaters.. Either way, it appears that the former Governator’s SABOTAGE failed massively..
So.. did we just find out why animals were running out of Yellowstone?
I just wrote this morning about quakes in LA and Oklahoma.. but I didn’t speak much about Yellowstone.
And BOOM.
Shake>
QUAKE.
A major one, too..A 4.8 magnitude quake struck Yellowstone in Wyoming this morning..
The Yellowstone quake was preceded by a 3.0 foreshock at 4:36am MDT, about 2 hours before the main shock..
So if the animals ran, was it the 4.8 or .. is there more to come?
Saturday night was a weird kind of night.. creepy.. rainy.. foreboding. Anyone else feeling like we are on the verge of something ..? There is just something about raw nights like last night, with wind and cold rain. The earth has power, as does nature. We don’t. Sometimes it feels like we are just constant victims to time itself. Each hour could be the last..
But collectively looking at it, I feel a sense of dread about upcoming events and times. And I don’t know why.. I fear the future this Sunday morning..
Here’s some reasons why..
This image is the 3.0 magnitude earthquakes or better across the United States.
We already know about the Southern California shaking, whether they be aftershocks ore foreshocks of a bigger one to come.. But take a glance at the middle of the country: Oklahoma has been getting rattled by quake after quake after quake—mostly in natural gas drilling areas where fracking is taking place. Just last night—last night—there were two moderate earthquakes over that state.. (and at a fracking location) And it was felt as far as Kansas..
I was also catching up on my boom and noise news .. The Strange Sounds blog ran a post concerning booms in Missouri earlier this month.. I have actually seen some more recent reports from Missouri of the same booming noises taking place. And with all of these booms and obvious mini quakes taking place, it reminded me of something I have read before concerning the days before the last major New Madrid quake in the 1800s: There were booms heard prior to the 1811 quake..
Speaking of the LA panics: They just keep happening: There is a lot of movement taking place in Southern California, as documented by this quake rundown..
The deadly virus Ebola continues to spread, seemingly unabated. The outbreak has now reached Guinea’s capital .. people are obviously worried, as shown here, about what would happen should Ebola spread throughout the world. Meanwhile,the death toll continues to rise, nations that surround Guinea shut down their borders, and Guinea orders a ban on eating meat.. The scary part is: When people battle Ebola, Ebola always wins..
A little venting here.. And nothing political at all is meant by it.. no statement being made.
I long for the good old days when politicians were lampooned instead of being propped up—no matter the party or silly side you’re on. It’s healthy to laugh at our Chief Executive and Congress.
It’s needed.
IT SHOULD BE MANDATED!
Instead we’re subjected to PR and badly written comedic mind control.. During the supposed political ‘satire’ on SNL, the President had to kiss Justin Bieber to promote health care to the young. I missed the joke.. I didn’t get why it was funny.. But I sure saw through the attempt to promote President Obama. And that is NOT WHAT POLITICAL SATIRE IS..
