Marianna Psota's movie Nowhere Nevada was filmed in and around Reno, NV and released on Sept 15, 2013. It is a quirky, drug-filled, vulgarity-laden, X-File-ish, indie rock'n'roll love story, local Garage punk bands with plenty of northern Nevada scenery.




The remains of one of the last U.S. Navy pilots killed during WWII finally have been interred in his home state of Michigan. ENS Eugene Mandeberg was reported MIA on 15 August 1945 when his Hellcat did not return to USS Yorktown. An investigation determined that Mandeberg was shot down over Yokohama in the final dogfight of the war a few hours after Japan surrendered. Remains of a pilot buried at a Buddhist temple and then recovered in 1946 were believed to belong to Mandeberg but it was not until earlier this year that scientific analysis provided positive identification. Mandeberg was laid to rest Sept. 14, 2025 at Beth El Memorial Park in Livonia, Michigan. Welcome home sailor.

According to a SLUDGE report, Democratic firm SKDK has agreed to run a bot farm on Instagram, YouTube, TikTok and other social media sites for the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs in order to "flood the zone" with pro-Israel messages. (Article is paywalled but you can read 50% of it)




Like clockwork, a few weeks ago, Trump extended the 9/11 state of emergency that started under Bush II. This grants the president all kinds of powers that we don't even know about. While Congress is legally required to review these, they have never done so. You ever think about how from the late 70's onward the top planners of Continuity of Government were Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, and right after they get into office, 9/11 somehow happens, causing COG plans to be activated for the first time (because back in the late 80s they modified the COG plans to include any emergency, not just nuclear war), and how we're all still in that state of emergency today?




Meh, why worry when...




Trump files a $15 billion defamation and libel lawsuit against The New York Times, accusing the newspaper of lying about him, his family, businesses, the MAGA movement...and jets off to the UK.


The current market capitalization of The New York Times stands at about US$9.65 billion.


BREAKING: TikTok US Deal Finalized

Oracle, Silver Lake and Andreessen Horowitz will control TikTok’s US operations under a new 80/20 framework with ByteDance.

• 80% US-owned (Oracle + Silver Lake + A16z + legacy investors)
• 20% Chinese-owned (ByteDance keeps a slice)
• American board with US government oversight
• New US-only app with separate algorithm from global TikTok

The Bottom Line:
This isn’t just a sale, it’s a complete rebuild. US users will download a new app that looks identical to current TikTok but runs entirely on American infrastructure (Oracle) with US-controlled algorithms. This means U.S. user data and the For You feed are separate from the global app everyone else uses. ByteDance licenses their technology but loses operational control. The result: TikTok survives, creators keep audiences, Washington gets data control. Reportedly 170 million US users, but I'm not one of them. Have fun with that.


TikTok lives: US, China in deal for app to keep operating in US

A question that I'm sure many are thinking is, what happens to businesses outside of the US who are specifically targeting people in the US on TikTok? Is it now even more impossible to try and grow a US-based audience from outside of the US? I know many in Europe and Australia where the main market is in America. So does that mean those businesses are not allowed to access the US audience anymore on TikTok? Must seek approval from daddy? Post anything negative toward Israel or really anything negative on the establishment and they'll ban your account, 3 strikes and they freeze your bank account. But, they'll probably give a lot of latitude at least for awhile because the machine needs to be fed.

For now the whole thing is still pending, final regulatory approvals (from CFIUS and any necessary Beijing approvals for exporting the algorithm or IP) and an official timeline for the cutover. Until these are finalized, details may change.

USGOV is taking control/a stake in big corporations like Intel, US steel, Lockheed and now TikTok.

The Matrix continues to be a perfect metaphor for our time. This past week and still ongoing has illustrated with crystal clarity the system's horrifying power to turn so many people into Agent Smith's with a snap of its digital fingers. All it takes is the right combination of symbols (triggers). Simple/Symbol mindedness.
