It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad World

Fight disinformation: Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily newsletter and follow the news that matters.


At the risk of becoming a dreaded aggregator, here are a few choice tidbits I couldn’t help shaking my head at:

Belgian cops being politely asked to stop hitting the bars and brothels while on duty.

Technology’s response to gropers gone wild on Tokyo’s subways.

And, my fave: these lucky bastards dancing women around the world vs. this doomed one who found a huge, honking diamond while with his fiance and actually believes it’s going in his collection since she already has one. Smart money says she’ll either be wearing it by Thanksgiving or dis-engaged.

Fact:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and billionaires wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.
