Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.

Amber Glenn won Olympic gold on Sunday. That same day, she left social media because of death threats. Her offense: she'd told reporters the queer community is going through "a hard time." The headline called it "backlash." www.readtpa.com/p/the-thresh...
The Threshold
The right used to attack athletes who protested. Now they attack athletes who express feelings at all.

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this in all the time I've lived here - my backyard isn't filled with snow; it's just solid ice. If I were to smooth/level it, you could skate on it.
There's hardly any give to it at all when you walk on it.

I promise each of you personally, if Elon Musk said the next big thing was frog ranching, the business press wouldn't just print that frogs weigh 50% more than cattle, they would print an infographic showing the size difference.

there is no extent to which he, in particular, is ever questioned.
I mean, if Musk announced his plan to begin ranching frogs since the average frog weighs 50% more than a cow, you'd think that someone at the FT might pause before putting "frogs, which on average weigh 50% more than cows" in a news story.

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.

“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Hi Tomhoman, thanks for the thoughtful suggestion that we locals in MN end the resistance.

We’ve considered it and would like to make a counteroffer. To wit:

1) No
2) Never
3) Fuck you
4) You, Bovino, Noem, etc go to prison for decades.

Sound good? Great. Here’s $50k in a takeout bag.

It is not our moral responsibility to coddle the delusional fears and bigotries of white supremacists. It is not our moral responsibility to change reality for them so they can hold onto those fears and bigotries.

It is our moral responsibility to make their fears and bigotries THEIR problem.

The fact that Bad Bunny's halftime show made white bigots angry and feel excluded is A GOOD THING. It's one of the best things about it. It's not a problem to solve. It's a solution to pursue. Bigots *should* feel excluded. We should find *more* ways to celebrate the reality of USian diversity.
