In a world increasingly dominated by the absurd, it's becoming harder to discern fact from pure fiction. We're bombarded with claims so extreme that they must be a form of mockery. Is this news? Maybe it's all just one giant hoax.

• Consider, haven't we reached a point where anything is possible?
• Certainly the line between fact and imagination has become cloudy.
• Consider about it: {Giant squirrels? A politician who can actually keep their agreements?

Perhaps we've reached a point where the only logical explanation is that it's all just parody. Or maybe, just possibly, I need to get a break from the media.

Grinning in the Face of Absurdity

Life can be an absolute wild ride, filled with moments so bizarre that they'd make even a seasoned philosopher scratch their head. It's in these times of utter silliness that our capacity to find humor becomes a true testament to our resilience.

Reality is bending

In a world swimming in information, it's harder than ever to distinguish fact from fiction. Traditional news outlets struggle to keep up with the rapidly evolving deluge of content, often falling prey to the same biases that plague social media. Meanwhile, independent sources, often labeled as "fake news," have risen with a different perspective. What's troubling is that sometimes, these so-called "fake" narratives feel actually real than the sanitized stories peddled by mainstream media.

Is it just us, or are the lines between truth and fiction becoming blurred?
