I am currently working on a global investigation in which a small nation seeks to destroy America via sowing chaos, profiting from disaster and crippling the dollar. I immediately referred to my handy guide of diabolical plots to see which ideas they stole.empireonline.com/movies/feature…
Photographer Jeenah Moon grabbed these snaps of Erik Prince on a date with Steve Bannon at the Young Republicans Club and forever proved that whoever comes up with Bond villains needs to seriously up their game. ©Jeenah Moon nytimes.com/2020/04/21/boo…
I mean, just run down the Trump Evil Villain list and you get about a dozen comic book villain characters and creepy plots without taking a single pitch meeting.
Sometimes villains can be approachable. Trapped in a sad plot where they know they will fail. Photographer George Etheredge shot this as a perfect backdrop for a movie poster. We don't all have access to Daddie's hollow volcano even if he does make us the run his evil empire.
Others have gone straight to comic book and not even bothered changing the supervillian's words. How many diabolical plots were hatched over the last half decade only to be foiled by earnest hard working gumshoes? pastemagazine.com/design/donald-…
Comic book illustrators use "scratch" or photos to draw characters. How easy did Jared make it for comic book and scriptwriters to make him look like an evil genius...without the genius part?
I digress. So our once faithful but manipulative PetroPuppetMasters have decided to join the Axis of Evil (Wagner), hire some ex Trump Villains and take down America all while smiling and patting us on the back. Stay tuned. esquire.com/uk/style/g3111…

Is it time for Steve to team up Snoop Dog and do a cooking show?
It appears Nick Nolte is Steve’s grooming coach and Johnny Walker has been prepping his defense.
Usually to look this bad for your booking you have to lead officers on a multi hour all night drug and booze fueled car chase. Steve completes the triptych of celebrity mug shots. Image

Before gaffer tape.
Don't forget to visit the lounge on the lower deck. Something you still see on the Emirates double decker in the back.

So I learned that my consumption of food, shelter and gas needs to be trimmed back but my survival on "other" needs to increase. washingtonpost.com/business/2021/…
Reader's Digest (the magazine your great grandparents read) took a shot at predicting that things will be cheaper. Like Gas, rent and...bullshit. Everything is more expensive..cuz....covid. Companies did this after 9/11 too cuz....terrorism. rd.com/list/things-th…
your first clue to dishonest articles is the stock photos. Then the contrarian headline. The reality is corporations are trying to make as much money as they can while people are spending. Bad Pr, labor shortage and "supply chain" excuses be damned. yahoo.com/now/57-items-g…

Photographer J.Ross Baughman's Leica M4 and Noctilux in the the Smithsonian. Check out his work. learninglab.si.edu/collections/ph…
Something about a piece of machinery that unflinchingly and unfailingly captures history.
Baughman's work and career are definitely worth a revisit in today's environment. thephoblographer.com/2017/03/10/eth…
