What We're Talking About

The news we couldn't ignore if we tried

America's Favorite Son Back In Headlines

Daily Mail— Lunden Roberts, the mother of Hunter Biden’s 6-year-old daughter, Navy Joan, has asked a judge to jail Hunter Biden for allegedly violating a child-support agreement, claiming he failed to consistently pay the $5,000 per month he agreed to in 2023 and has never met their daughter in person, despite that being part of the deal. In her filing, Roberts describes the emotional impact on Navy, including the child’s expressed sadness over her father’s absence, and urges the court to hold Biden in contempt and incarcerate him until he complies with the order, emphasizing that the request stems from an ongoing family court dispute over child support and parental involvement rather than a criminal arrest warrant.

A Cool $1 Million Gets You A Room On The Moon

Daily Star— A California startup, Galactic Resource Utilization Space (GRU), says it plans to open what it calls the world’s first luxury hotel on the Moon by 2032 and has already begun accepting $1 million deposits from affluent would-be guests. The proposed project would rely on specialized habitation modules and automated technology designed to convert lunar soil into usable living space, with construction potentially starting around 2029 if approvals are secured, and targeting wealthy thrill-seekers and honeymooners rather than traditional tourists. While critics dismiss the idea as unrealistic and prohibitively expensive, the company’s founders argue that lunar tourism could jumpstart a sustainable Moon-based economy and turn a once-fanciful concept into a tangible reality far from Earth.

911 Caller Ends Up Getting Arrested For Harassment

WVLT— Police in Pueblo, Colorado, arrested 52-year-old James Taylor after he flooded 911 with more than 150 calls in a single day, repeatedly tying up emergency lines with complaints that included reports of loud noises. Officers said Taylor refused to meet in person, became hostile while shouting from inside his home, and was later found to have an active misdemeanor warrant for harassment stemming from prior threats against dispatchers.

Today's Holidays

Celebrate the weird stuff. We do.

Holiday #1 of 4

National Without a Scalpel Day

January 16th is National Without a Scalpel Day, which sounds like a dare until you realize it’s a celebration of minimally invasive surgery. That’s right—today we honor the brave souls who looked at a knife, looked at a vein, and said, “There’s gotta be a sneakier way in.” It’s a holiday for the quiet heroes: the surgeons who ghost your gallbladder without making a scene. Frankly, if more folks approached problems like that, my ex-wife might still have a mailbox.
