    It's obvious, logical, natural, even mathematical that our civilization is going to collapse, that we have overshot the sustainable carrying capacity of the earth and ecosystem that supports us. But people are fed false hope, false positives and magical faiths which extract your agency and distract you from your presence. Held captive by apathy, afraid of your own shadow.

    Arkansas investigator goes to
    wrong house, fatally shoots
    family’s dog



    By Natalie Musumeci

    November 16, 2020




    An Arkansas family was left devastated after an investigator who allegedly mistook their address for a sex offender’s shot and killed their pet dog.

    The deadly incident involving the Coiner family’s beloved pooch named Clide unfolded last week in the city of Greenbrier.

    Video footage posted to Facebook by Chris Coiner shows the aftermath of the shooting as the canine lay dead on the ground.

    “You shot and killed my goddamn dog, you motherf—-r!” a shattered Coiner screams to the investigator, identified by local reports as James Freeman of the Faulkner County Sheriff’s Office, the video shows.

    “Get off my property, motherf—-r!” Coiner shouts at Freeman. “You are a motherf—-r, you piece of motherf—–ing sh-t… shoot my goddamn dog, you p—y.”

    The Faulkner County Sheriff’s Office said Freeman was at the property for a sex offender compliance check, but mistakenly went to Coiner’s house instead of a nearby home, FOX 16 News reported.

    Freeman had first gone to the address 72 Autumn Hills for the check, but was allegedly told the sex offender lived at the next address – Coiner’s home, the news outlet said.

    Coiner claims Freeman then shot his dog in his yard because the animal barked at him.

    “I was livid, I was livid with feelings and he didn’t care one bit,” Coiner told FOX 16 News.

    Coiner added, “He did not make any attempt to get away from it, he didn’t make any attempt to get back in his vehicle, all he did was shoot the dog because he was barking at him.”

    That was a tough video to watch. I don't even care to imagine how livid I would be, as a life long dog owner, if that same scenario played out on my own front yard.

    Surfing RAT ...
    survives Philippine floods by hopping onto piece
    of wood and riding the waters to safety


    This is the moment a surfing rat survived floods in the Philippines by hopping onto a piece of wood and riding the waters to safety.

    The drenched rodent found itself caught up in the deluge after the deadly storm swamped streets in Marikina City in the Metro Manila region of the Philippines on Saturday, November 14.

    However, the smart creature mounted a piece of floating wood and surfed to safety on top of the 6ft-deep muddy water.

    As of Monday, typhoon Vamco - known as Ulysses locally - has killed 63 people.

    Hear Wolfgang Van Halen Pay
    Tribute to His Dad With Debut
    Solo Single

    By Brian Hiatt

    Recording as Mammoth WVH, Wolfgang Van Halen sings about missing his dad, Eddie Van Halen, on his new song “Distance”



    "Wolfgang Van Halen doesn’t pull any emotional punches in “Distance,” his first-ever solo song, and its accompanying video.

    He wrote the song while his late father, Eddie Van Halen, battled cancer, “imagining what my life would be without him, and how terribly I’d miss him,” as Wolfgang explained in a statement. Wolfgang, recording under the name Mammoth WVH, plays all instruments and sings lead, but it feels like an actual, hard-hitting band, albeit in a style closer to mid-2000s active-rock than classic Van Halen. “I don’t think I’ll ever move on,” Wolfgang sings. (Read our in-depth new interview with Wolfgang Van Halen.)

    The video, compiled entirely from old home movies — some shot by Wolfgang’s mom, Valerie Bertinelli — showcases Eddie as an adoring dad, with footage of him bottle-feeding baby Wolfie and showing him guitars and pianos before he could talk. It concludes with a heart-wrenching voicemail: “I’m just so happy to have you as my son, man. I’m so proud of you. I love you so much. Call me if you get a chance. I just want to hear your voice.”
