There’s a new feature in Jetpack which allows comment likes. Not sure if I’ll keep it active or not, as this could take up storage, but, let’s see if people like it and if it brings value for a couple of days. 2/4 Was messing with the server for uploads. Turned off

If there’s a program that gives Los Federales more power, Democrats love it (excluding any restrictions on abortion, along with deporting illegal aliens). Net Neutrality does that. It also rewards certain Big Companies which vote Democrat and give Democrats lots of money. Democrats want it back (The Hill) Democrats are promising a showdown on the […]

No zombie outbreaks, no invasions from Mars, people aren’t scrolling through their social media looking for things to be Outraged over at speeds we haven’t seen since dial-up was the only game in town.

There is a ton of crazy out there regarding the ending of the 2 year old net neutrality rules. Twitter is a seething cesspool.

With the vote on doing away with the Obama era rules on Net Neutrality coming today, supporters of this big government plan are getting nuttier and nuttier.
