Kimmel’s return breaks his YouTube record: Most-watched monologue ever
James Hibberd, The Hollywood Reporter, Sept. 24, 2025
Kimmel's emotional and highly anticipated return to ABC very quickly became the most popular 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' monologue on YouTube. Nexstar and Sinclair really missed out. The affiliate groups boycotting Jimmy Kimmel Live! missed airing — and selling ads — on what’s rapidly become Kimmel’s most-watched monologue of all time on YouTube.
Kimmel’s return to ABC on Tuesday night (Sept. 23, 2025, Rapture Day) featured a nearly 30-minute show opening that included the host’s emotional monologue where he thanked those who supported him during his suspension, attempted to clarify his controversial comments about Charlie Kirk and, most of all, passionately defended free speech.

I dunno about Bibi having Charlie Kirk killed.

Lefties Losing It: The left is celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder
(Sky News Australia) Sept. 11, 2025: Smarmy, virtue signaling, rightwing, Indian Australian Sky News host Rita Panahi blasts "the ghouls on the Left" for celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk. [Never mind that a white male Republican family gun nut whose father is a cop is the alleged shooter.]
In Buddhism, there are the Five Precepts one lives by. These are not very well misunderstood, often dismissed as just generally being "good." But they go a little deeper. One abstains from killing. That is the number one thing. However, to really abstain, one not only avoids kills, one does not encourage others to kill. This is why it is good to avoid lauding, approving, celebrating, or otherwise indirectly impelling others to kill. It is the same with the other four precepts -- to avoid stealing, sexual misconduct, lying, or consuming intoxicants that occasion heedlessness. Buddhists not only avoid them but avoid encouraging such things by others.

Kamala D. Harris campaign in tatters as she’s smashed during another ‘awful’ week
I can do better alone than with G-Joe Biden
(Sky News Australia) Grey (b/w) Democrat Kamala Devi Harris’s campaign is in tatters after consecutive weeks of disastrous gaffes, stumbles, and mumbles on the campaign trail.
Sky News All Stars James Morrow, Joe Hildebrand, and Danica De Giorgio take a look at Kamala’s latest word salads and ask if she’s ruined her chances at election victory for women, Blacks, Indians, and Democrats.

Tim Walz was an utter calamity in the debate
(Link Lauren) Oct. 1, 2024 JD Vance decisively beat (whooped, slammed, destroyed) Tim Walz in the vice presidential debate on CBS tonight.  #jdvance #timwalz
Conservative Americans hate Haitians no matter how hard they work, treating them like slaves.

Mounted border guard not whipping Haitian
Will the Haitian-Americans of Springfield be vindicated and apologized to or further maligned and lied about? They're not Americans! Who's to say? If an official allowed them in with acceptable paperwork then they are here legally and are, in a sense, Americans. Maybe it's only a temporary status but it is a status nonetheless. Will weird couch humping come up or Vance's history of crossdressing at Yale U come up? One would think he would take this opportunity to dispute it. Viewers are here to see a blood sport, a personal savaging of one another after months of buildup as the two name-call and talk about one another without ever having met. They were both in Congress and the military and the Midwest and Washington, one would think they would have met. Not so small world after all. One this is certain (if anything is because a comet may strike, a mass coronal ejection, a personal exhaustion of karma, a well-deserved military attack, a cyber strike, or the gods/devas may just bump into the switch and shut off the samsara simulation mid-game): One man will lose and we'll never hear from him again, and the other will become vice president, and we'll never hear from him again. Just ask Kosta; it's his joke:
VP Debate: Tim Walz and JD Vance’s biggest moments and misses
(The Daily Show) Oct. 1, 2024: Michael Kosta goes live after the first and only vice presidential debate between Tim Walz and JD Vance. The stakes are as low as possible: one of these men will lose and we’ll never hear from them again, and one will win, become vice president, and we'll never hear from them again. #DailyShow #TimWalz #JDVance #Debate

I'm so proud of my curry lover.
Sen. JD Vance won on style if not substance, keeping his cool, presenting meaningful answers in a down-home Midwestern style one would have thought was Tim Walz' specialty. CBS hosts seemed fair, attacking them both and keeping on them. But Walz looked terrible, grimaced, never smiled, looked away, staring at Vance, was nervous and amped up and scared. Trump beat Biden, Harris beat Trump, and now Vance beat Walz. One might disagree with everything Trump stands for. He's a horrible candidate and was an unbearable president, but Vance is nice, not weird, and not deserving of the criticism he has been receiving.
I got hairy legs, and Harris has hairy Walz. You know what I mean! - G-Joe Biden
.
I tried. I'm a coach, not a player.
Vance sounded honest, had obviously prepared, and made an excellent presentation. Walz may be a better guy, more down-home, but he did not come across nearly as well. Because Harris' style is much easier to swallow, in spite of her gaffes, vacuity, and changeableness, it seems a better idea to vote Harris Walz (or Hairy 'alls), but if one could elect Vance independent of Trump, that does not seem like the worst thing.
Finally, it happened. I look better in comparison.
We cannot help but feel Vance has a future despite all the embarrassments and missteps so far. Walz needs polish or to be brought back to himself. Where's the guy who appeared at rallies and did such a great job? One would think Vance was a regal Nazi, all image and rugged, whereas Walz was a grunt, foot soldier, "old guy" as he kept calling himself. He's the same age as youthful Harris and much younger than actual old man Trump. Back to the drawing board, or send Walz to Yale for a little refinement. Democrats win, individual candidates not so much. Republicans may have a better position on some things -- if only it weren't for Project 2025, their stand on women, and if Harris loses, it has to be due to the Democrats not opening up the race to others. We were forced to go from a senile war maniac to a goofy cackler, while being threatened by an egomaniac and an odd bird who came out of nowhere to both impress and scare us.
It's sad that, according to the mainstream media, this is coming down to gender, men going red as women swing blue. Yay, blue! But blue isn't what it used to be. Now it's the war party. Now it's the mainstream. Now it's backed by the CIA and Pentagon and old-school Republicans. One has to wonder. What does analyst Jimmy Dore have to say?
Why does CIA keep trying to JFK me? - They hate you like most Americans. - Oh. F'em then.
Boo, you big target! - Quit spooking me, you old SOB! I'm still on edge from my ear piercing.

Our telescreen is dead, RIP
Imagine caring so little about a politician like Trump or the one-party system that both wings (blue and red) continue to support so that no other option or party ever exists that the only response to another Trump assassination attempt is met with a *yawn.*
OMG, the Emmys are going on right now in Hollywood, celebrating our beloved stars, doling out awards and honors, red carpet gawking, paparazzi, and celebrities galore! Shogun, Reservation Dogs, Bear are big winners? We killed our TV, so who know what's what? Netflix, binging, paid service providers, bundled plans, who needs it?
In California, it cooled down and got cloudy as if water droplets were about to form magically in the sky and fall on the cars. The sudden chill forebodes a change of season, heralding the equinox, harvest festivals, Halloween, Samhain, Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) akin to Buddhist Obon, and all things fall.

Putin praises Kamala Harris's 'infectious' laugh as he backs her for US president
(Sky News Australia) Sept 5, 2024: A teasing Russian President Vladimir Putin says the Kremlin (Moscow's version of the White House) will support US Vice President Kamala Harris's candidacy, citing her "infectious" laugh.
Putin made the comments during a plenary session of the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok on Thursday.
Putin mentioned that while G-Joe Biden was previously their [the Russian government's] "favorite," they now support KD Harris, referencing senile Mr. Biden’s recommendation of her.
"We had the current president Mr. Biden, as our favorite, if I can call it that," Pres. Putin said.
"But now he has been taken out of the race, but he recommended that all his allies support Mrs. Harris. That's what we're going to do...first of all."
And secondly, she has such an expressive and infectious laugh, it shows that she's doing well."
