You might make that suggestion in the AI art thread. Those folks are wizards at making the AIs paint and draw. Maybe somebody knows how to make one sing and dance too.

To bring us back to the theme of idiots getting bitten by wild animals through stupidity:

> **[Man Allegedly 'Bit in Face' by Alligator at Florida Attraction. But Company...](https://www.yahoo.com/news/us/articles/man-allegedly-bit-face-alligator-163041659.html)**
>
> Edil Kasenov is seeking over $50,000 in damages after the alleged incident at a free animal encounter

However, it appears that he wasn’t actually bitten, just smacked in the face because he did something stupid. It does seem like a money grab, but who knows?

I like the fact he claims to have been grievously injured yet waited 11 months after the incident to file a lawsuit.

I live not far from the plaintiff and I’m quite familiar with the rampant lawyer advertising around here. I suspect he only recently found some ambulance chaser desperate enough to take this hopeless case.

A CIA employee lied about his education and military record in order to get a Top Secret clearance, then set up a fake intelligence program in order to steal $40 million worth of gold from a defense contractor.

Could’ve gone in a number of threads…  
John Oliver recently looked at a couple of nutso Republican candidates for Govenor in Colorado.  
One of them, Scott Bottoms, sures shows some naked anti-semitism, but hooooo-boy the next clown, Victor Marx…words fail…you _have_ to see for yourself, if only to see how far humanity has devolved. He’s been mentioned here before (“the seven year-old killer”!), but I can’t recall if there was a video.  
In two parts.

Breaking news on Facebook is that this stupid MFer has been arrested for felony theft.

Hah, I think that’s the first time I’ve ever seen a John Curley reference on the Dope.

😆

While the guy stealing signatures is obviously an idiot, some of Curley’s (typical) right-wing comments are also pretty stupid.

> Curley said the man is probably associated with a union in some way, as he would benefit from the millionaires’ tax.

Yeah, the unions are the only ones who will benefit from closing the massive budget gap the state is facing.

I haven’t listened to KIRO since they sidelined Dave Ross. Is Curley the new Dori Monson?

That’s what I found with Google. The original I saw was a FB post. I have no idea who John Curley is.

He’s a local celebrity in the Seattle area. I most often see him in hair restoration commercials these days.
