Project 2025's Top Priorities

This is what we can expect as soon as that fucker returns to the Oval Office:

Overhauling the federal government and inserting more political appointees aligned with Trump's ideology into executive branch positions.

Implementing aggressive immigration policies, including mass deportations and strict border control measures.

Cutting or eliminating various federal agencies and programs, such as the Department of Education and Department of Homeland Security.

Reforming the Federal Reserve and potentially returning to the gold standard.

Implementing conservative social policies, including restricting abortion access, limiting LGBTQ+ rights, and promoting "Christian nation-ism".

Reducing environmental and climate change regulations to favor fossil fuels.

Cutting Medicare and Medicaid programs.

Implementing tax cuts and reforming the tax system.

Taking a more isolationist and protectionist approach to foreign policy and international relations.

Expanding executive powers and dismantling what they call the "deep state"

FAT WHORES MOURN : Wendy's to close 140 locations soon

Following a similar closure trend to that of Denny’s and many other big name establishments this year, Wendy’s has announced the impending closure of 140 of its restaurants. The unexpected announcement came during the company's November Q3 2024 earnings call in which Wendy’s president and CEO Kirk Tanner stated, “We want to further improve our restaurant footprint and overall system health.”

During the call, Tanner explained that his decision to close so many restaurants is one that is “strategic” in identifying “outdated and underperforming trade areas.” Tanner noted that these specific locations have “average unit volumes of approximately $1.1 million and operating margins well below the system average.”

The overarching idea here is that Wendy’s will continue to open more storefronts in different regions in order to offset the upcoming store closures.

“We have designed this initiative to ensure that over time, many of these units will be replaced by new restaurants at better locations with significantly improved sales and profitability,” Tanner explained. “We anticipate that total closures in 2024, including additional closures in the fourth quarter, will be offset by new restaurant openings this year, leaving our net unit growth approximately flat compared to the prior year.”

CBS Gets Around To Reporting on Trump Tariffs

As President-elect Donald Trump readies to return to the Oval Office, U.S. retailers that depend on foreign suppliers are prepared to pass along the cost of his proposed import tariffs to consumers, potentially leading to higher prices for a range of products.

Americans stand to lose between $46 billion and $78 billion in spending power each year on products including apparel, toys, furniture, household appliances, footwear and travel goods due to the new tariffs, the National Retail Federation stated in findings released Monday.

"Retailers rely heavily on imported products and manufacturing components so that they can offer their customers a variety of products at affordable prices," NRF Vice President of Supply Chain and Customs Policy Jonathan Gold said in a statement. "A tariff is a tax paid by the U.S. importer, not a foreign country or the exporter. This tax ultimately comes out of consumers' pockets through higher prices."

For example, a $40 toaster oven would retail for $48 to $52 after the tariffs, while a $50 pair of running shoes would jump to to $59 to $64, according to the industry trade group. A $2,000 mattress and box spring set would cost $2,128 to $2,190, the NRF said.

During President-elect Trump's first term in office, his administration imposed tariffs of up to 25% on more than $360 billion in products from China. President Joe Biden's White House kept most of those tariffs and added more onto goods including Chinese electric cars and microchips.

Now, Trump has said he plans to impose a 60% tax on goods from China and a 10% to 20% levy on all of the $3 trillion in foreign goods the U.S. imports annually. Such sweeping tariffs would reignite inflation, as they would mostly be paid by U.S. consumers, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has warned, offering a general view widely shared by other economists on both sides of the political aisle.

"A consistent theoretical and empirical finding in economics is that domestic consumers and domestic firms bear the burden of a tariff, not the foreign country," the nonpartisan Budget Lab at Yale University stated in an analysis published in mid-October.

Trump has repeatedly contended that foreign companies would foot the bill, telling a gathering last month at the Economic Club of Chicago that "the countries will pay" the tariffs. In reality, American importers pay the tariffs to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency when their goods cross the border.

"These policy steps would amount to regressive tax cuts, only partially paid for by regressive tax increases," and cost a typical middle-income household about $1,700 in increased taxes a year," according to economists at the Peterson Institute for International Economics. The proposed tariffs would shift tax burdens from the well-off to lower-income Americans, the nonprofit also stated in a policy brief published in August.

For now, it is unclear when the new Trump regime could seek to stiffen tariffs. The process to complete legislation required to raise the levies could take nearly a year, so any adverse impact might not be felt until 2026, according to Oxford Economics.

I Think I Am Done With Amazon

A combo vent/rant. Once again, Amazon has fubared another order of mine. I placed a sizable order containing 3 items on the 12th. The 2 least expensive items were delivered by USPS last Sunday. The most expensive item showed that it wouldn't be delivered until today. As of last night there was no shipping information/tracking number. As of 9:30 this morning still the same, still supposed to arrive by 10pm tonight. Then I sent a request to Amazon for a call back and of course the call came from some hell hole country with CS reps who couldn't speak intelligible English. And to top it all off while talking to the first CS agent (a female) I could hear a chicken crowing in the background, and then a man and what sounded like a child fighting in the same room like two wild animals. Clearly Amazon is farming their CS out to people who work out of their homes now. I asked to speak to someone higher up and she transferred me to some man who was in a quiet environment. After being on hold for almost 10 minutes he came back and said he could find no information about the items and neither could the Amazon DC it was to be shipped from, so the only thing he could do was to cancel the item.

It's just not worth it anymore. I'll return to doing all my shopping at retail stores and pay more just for the piece of mind that I know I have what I want, when I want it.

Bullying in School : How does it effect your daily life as an adult?

I was bullied in school by classmates for being a fag long before I could seriously consider it myself. The sad part was I grew up in a time and place in Maryland ( the 70’s) where teachers were still allowed, encouraged, and demonstrated that they were fag haters. I don’t know if I suffer PTSD because I barely think about it. I think it made me less trusting of authority. But I have read how today’s kids do all kinds of crazy things to bully other people, and it seems to leave a more lasting scar. I kind of feel lucky to have made it without too much harm.

I also have to admit that helped make me a better man because I didn’t break, or leave school, or have emotional problems. I think it made me more confident and self-aware. It also made me a kinder person- maybe because I’m not angry about it.

Trump’s second term will look nothing like his first

Donald Trump’s election victory will return him to the White House, but both his allies and detractors have made clear his second time around will look nothing like the first.

With the Republican Party now entirely his, its anti-Trump figures banished for good, Trump will enter the Oval Office with both the experience of having done the job before and a wealth of resentments over how he believes the system failed him.

That makes the coming four years uncertain ones that cannot be easily predicted by the first Trump presidency. His rival, Vice President Kamala Harris, tried warning voters of the risks. But to his supporters, the promises of fixing what he called a broken country — even if it means abandoning long-held principles — was the whole point.

Figures who once hoped to act as stabilizing forces — including a string of chiefs of staff, defense secretaries, a national security adviser, a national intelligence adviser and an attorney general — have abandoned Trump, leaving behind recriminations about his character and abilities.

They’ve been replaced by a cohort of advisers and officials uninterested in keeping Trump in check. Instead of acting as bulwarks against him, those working for Trump this time around share his views and are intent on upholding the extreme pledges he made as a candidate without concern for norms, traditions or law that past aides sought to maintain.

Trump’s axis of influence has shifted greatly since he left office in January 2021. While his daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, were once prominent campaign surrogates and senior White House staffers, they’ve since stepped away from the daily churn of politics. Ivanka Trump has made clear she has no plans to return to the West Wing, and while Kushner has been involved in the transition efforts, sources familiar with his thinking said he is unlikely to leave his private equity firm.

Instead, Trump has found himself relying on people like Donald Trump Jr., Elon Musk and Susie Wiles throughout his third run for the White House.

The former president also seems eager to reward those who supported him — like Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. — even if their viewpoints exist well outside the mainstream. Despite his belief in vaccine conspiracy theories and his antisemitic comments, RFK Jr. said recently that Trump told him he would “fight like hell” for him if Kennedy wants to run the Department of Health and Human Services.

Stung by his experience dealing with agency legal offices, Trump will look to staff the government this time with lawyers who will work to find legal rationale for even his most radical ideas, rather than raise concerns.

Even now, Trump has skirted the conventional transition process and refused to sign ethics agreements that would allow his campaign to begin working with the Biden administration on the handoff, a process that typically starts six months before the election. The holdup stems from Trump’s deep mistrust of federal agencies, certainly those not run by his own loyalists. This means his team has not had to disclose donors to his transition process but has also been blocked from national security briefings and from receiving millions of dollars in funding to aid the transition.

As the struggle over the wording in the agreements has become protracted, resulting in the missing of key deadlines, Trump’s aides are unable to obtain security clearances. (Some have floated conducting their own without the FBI.)

In Congress, where moderate Republicans used to occasionally criticize Trump’s most outlandish behavior, fealty to Trump is now almost uniform among the GOP. Efforts to place limits on presidential power over the last four years largely fizzled, and anti-Trump Republicans have either retired or been voted out.

NYT review of "Romeo + Juliet"

Safe to describe it as mixed.

------------------------------

"Who can forget the classic first line of “Romeo and Juliet”: “How y’all doin’ today?”

Well, perhaps not so classic. But as uttered at the start of the play’s 36th Broadway revival, which opened Thursday at Circle in the Square, the words are certainly more welcoming to the production’s youthful target audience than the traditional iambic pentameter ones: “Two households, both alike in dignity.”

Not that there are two households in the director Sam Gold’s rec-room adaptation anyway. Romeo’s parents, along with a clutch of other characters, have been discarded. Juliet’s are both played by one actor, with little more than a change of inflection. And though Kit Connor and Rachel Zegler, the box-office draws, cover just one star-crossed lover each — he a beagly Romeo, she a beamish Juliet — the other eight cast members take on 17 roles, adorably if often indistinguishably. It’s a puppy pile.

But before you wonder whether this production was sponsored by CliffsNotes, with only as much poetry and staying power as an Instagram story, bear in mind that many of the characters are teenagers, and that the play may most usefully be directed at people seeing it for the first time, not the 36th. Certainly Gold has used everything in his formidable toolbox — scissors, hammers, punches, wrenches — to get young people interested in a world that looks more like theirs than Elizabethan London or Renaissance Verona.

So after an energetic preshow, filled with flirting, peacocking and snits of aggression, the story begins with that casual greeting from Gabby Beans, the play’s Chorus. Beans, later a hotheaded Mercutio, a beneficent Friar Lawrence and a barely there Prince Escalus, makes a relatable hype woman, introducing the rest of the cast by first name and telling us whom they’ll be playing. If you’re confused — and even a frequent flier might be — you can consult a program insert that visualizes the Montagues and Capulets as a mood board.

Moody the show is. The funky-sparkly costumes (by Enver Chakartash) and the dusky-stroby lighting (by Isabella Byrd) create a feeling of extremes without much middle. The music, by Taylor Swift’s producer Jack Antonoff, which at one point includes a lusty performance of “We Are Young,” does the same, except when throbbing or noodling anxiously in the background as if to ensure that the spell goes unbroken.

That’s mostly harmless and entirely unnecessary. Connor needs no help in keeping and maintaining the emotional temperature, easily enlarging the tenderness and obliviousness of his Nick on “Heartstopper” to fit the stage. When he looks into Juliet’s eyes, you see what he wants and how seriously he wants it; when he walks among his riotous peers, as they hump Teddy bears and sniff out insults, you see how little that means to him now.

Connor is also a very physical actor, or at any rate his recently beefed-up, often tank-topped body is given a workout. Instead of just climbing to Juliet’s balcony — represented by the design collective dots as a flowery bed that descends from the heavens — he does a leaping pull-up from the ground to get there, then lifts himself farther to achieve full face time. This is a lover with lats.

But a manly Romeo and a tiny Juliet — Connor is nearly a foot taller than Zegler — creates, or reinforces, a problem. It’s disturbing enough in the Shakespeare when Lady Capulet tells her 13-year-old daughter that “ladies of esteem” her age are “already made mothers.” With an actor who, despite his baby face, looks much older than his years (Connor is 20) and an actress who looks much younger than hers (Zegler is 23) you’re left in an indeterminate space between ancient and current levels of ick.

Should-be DL Icon Charlene Tilton Resurfaces

Charlene Tilton walks through the doors of a Nashville restaurant, arms open wide. "Can I give you a hug?" she says, by way of greeting, before rapidly chit-chatting about how Nashville has changed in the seven years she's lived there and which library has the best storytime for her grandsons.

With her wide smile, Tilton still exudes effervescent Lucy Ewing charm, even without the voluminous golden locks that were her trademark as the iconic '80s darling on Dallas. But dressed in a green chenille sweater, skinny jeans and ankle boots that boost her petite 5' 1 1/2 inch frame, the 64-year-old actress is now more stylish grandma (her grandkids call her "Glamma" AKA, Glamorous Grandma) than blonde bombshell—and that's just the way she wants it. "On Dallas, it was such a whirlwind," she says. "The older I get, the more I've learned to be present in the day-to-day. I'm very content."

That sense of peace is welcome after a life that has been marked by profound turbulence. Her mother, Katherine, a secretary, became pregnant unexpectedly after meeting an Air Force pilot at the Pentagon, where they both worked at the time. "My biological father didn't want anything to do with me," Tilton says. "He had to have known about me—Dallas was so huge—but he never reached out."

While millions of Americans tuned in every Friday night for the glamour of Dallas, Tilton— who appeared on some 500 magazine covers at the height of her TV fame— kept her harrowing personal life a secret: Her mother struggled with severe mental illness and was eventually diagnosed with schizophrenia. "Back then mental illness wasn't talked about," says Tilton. "It was swept under the rug." Today, as she enjoys a quiet life in Tennessee with her daughter, Cherish Lee, 40, and her grandsons (ages 6 and 2) nearby—and a revived career as a character actress—Tilton is eager to share her story: "Bringing things out in the open is so helpful."

Tilton's earliest memories are of instability: Her mother raging while someone repossessed their TV as Charlene watched Captain Kangaroo; being kicked off a train from their L.A. home to Omaha after her mom had a breakdown; police taking her mother away, leaving 5-year- old Charlene alone in a strange city; seeing her mother wrapped in a straight jacket. Movies were a rare escape. "Everything was magical on screen," Tilton says. "I saw Julie Andrews in Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music and thought, 'I want her to be my mother.'"

After Katherine was institutionalized when her daughter was 5, Tilton shuffled between relatives and foster homes. In one home, "I remember the kids saying, 'When is she going to go?' and the parents said, 'We're trying to send her off but we can't get anyone to take her.' I thought, 'I'm never going to depend on anybody to take care of me.'"

When Tilton was almost 8 her mother was released, and they moved back to California. But despite medication ("There were always a lot of pill bottles around"), her mom continued to struggle. Once when she chaperoned one of Tilton's junior high dances, "she started fighting with herself, having a full-on conversation," Tilton recalls. "I wanted to die of embarrassment." Their apartment was often filthy and her mother refused to urinate in anything other than Tupperware containers: "That went on for years. I could never bring friends over."

Just a reminder: Barbra Streisand has an entire album dedicated to protesting Trump and all he stands for.

We really should give our old girl support for fighting the good fight. We should give it a listen to take comfort and keep up the fight for ourselves.

“Walls is the thirty-sixth studio album by American singer-songwriter Barbra Streisand, released on November 2, 2018, by Columbia Records.[1] The lead single "Don't Lie to Me" was written as a criticism of America's political climate amid the presidency of Donald Trump,[2][3] while the title track alludes to Trump's frequent calls for a wall at the Mexico border. Receiving critical acclaim, the album debuted at number 12 on the US Billboard 200.”

Couple plans to return to the US after their dream life in France became a ‘nightmare’

They moved to France from San Francisco in October 2023, but just over 12 months later, Joanna McIsaac-Kierklo and her husband Ed Kierklo say they are on the brink of returning to the US.

While Joanna, 74, and Ed, 75, intended to spend the rest of their lives in the European country, the retired couple have struggled to make friends and are becoming increasingly frustrated with French bureaucracy.

“We gave it a year here,” says Joanna. “And we just said, ‘Too much grief and no joy.’ There’s no fun. We’re struggling every day.”

“I honestly don’t think we could have put in any more effort to acclimatize to the French way of life,” adds Joanna, who describes their experience as “a nightmare.”

While they’re still working out the finer details of their imminent return, Joanna and Ed say that they’re “frustrated and exhausted,” by life in France and feel ready to “give up and leave.”

Uprooting their lives in the Californian city and moving to France was certainly not a decision taken lightly, they say.

Joanna and Ed, who’ve been married for 20 years, had already traveled the world extensively, both together and separately, beforehand.

“I didn’t get married till I was in my 50s,” says Joanna, who is originally from San Francisco. “So when I met my husband, we traveled.

“We have no children. No siblings. No parents. There’s nothing to encumber us doing exactly what we please.”

Joanna explains that she and Ed bought and sold three different homes during their first 15 years of marriage, “giving us a comfortable amount of cash to afford us the option to travel and even relocate to anywhere we wanted.”

In 2010, the couple bought a summer home in Northern California and spent eight years or so “going back and forth to San Francisco.”

“I think every married couple needs two places to live, because you’ve got to get away from each other,” adds Joanna, who previously worked as a healthcare executive.

But she says she was becoming increasingly frustrated with the political climate in the US and felt the urge to move somewhere else permanently.

“I’m a pretty political person, and I feel like the United States should be better,” she says. “And it never gets better.”

In 2011, the couple moved to London and spent much of their spare time traveling to different countries around Europe.

“I loved every place I went,” says Joanna. “I really enjoyed seeing a lot of Europe.”

After deciding that they couldn’t afford to live in the UK capital anymore, Joanna and Ed, a former IT executive, returned to San Francisco and tried to work out where to go next.

They’d previously spent two months living in the city of Nîmes in Southern France and “loved every minute,” so the destination seemed like it could be the ideal choice for them.

“We were looking for civility, consideration and little or no gun violence… which Nîmes has all three,” adds Joanna.

The couple hired a relocation specialist to help them find an apartment to rent and started the process of applying for a long-stay visa. However, things weren’t as straightforward as they’d envisioned.

Post ANY good news from the election here, no matter how small

In California, Proposition 3 passed:

[quote]Amends California Constitution to recognize fundamental right to marry, regardless of sex or race. Removes language in California Constitution stating that marriage is only between a man and a woman.

In other words, it undoes Prop 8 from about 15 years ago, which wrote the man/woman stuff into the state Constitution, and more firmly establishes same-sex and interracial marriage in California. Ridiculous it needs to be said, but I think most gays and lesbians in red states would like such reassurance in their state Constitution.

Queen Camilla Bursts Into Tears as King Charles References Mortality Amid Cancer Treatment

King Charles and Queen Camilla wrapped up their 10-day royal tour of Australia and Samoa with an emotional farewell.

The King and Queen ended the tour at a traditional Ava ceremony, which was held in the village of Siumu, the Daily Mail reported. King Charles was bestowed with the honorary title of To'aiga-o-Tumua, and he appeared to be genuinely moved by the warm welcome he'd received during the tour.

"I shall always remain devoted to this part of the world and hope that I survive long enough to come back again and see you," King Charles told the crowd. "We shall take away with us, I promise you, very special memories of our time here. We thank you for our wonderful gifts."

While some outlets suggested Queen Camilla was photographed crying with laughter during the event, others noted how emotional the King and Queen both were.

Meanwhile, the village's chief told Charles (via the Daily Mail), "Your papa Prince Philip was here, so were your brothers. So thank you for making the time. Your royal visit has lifted our house."

King Charles shared his cancer diagnosis with the world in February. Since then, reports have suggested the King's cancer treatment is going well.

As he is undertaking an international royal tour while undergoing cancer treatment, King Charles traveled to Australia and Samoa with two doctors.

During the farewell ceremony, King Charles told attendees (via GB News), "We've been so impressed by the beautiful way in which all the villages have decorated the roadsides, it is something very special about Samoa."

The Daily Mail reported that King Charles and Queen Camilla's royal tour has been extremely successful. "[Charles'] Australia and Samoa tour was seen by Buckingham Palace as a huge test of his reign—and surpassed all expectations," they reported.

The outlet also noted that the Queen has been an important support for the King following his cancer diagnosis. "At Queen Camilla's urging, he has been taking some down time by reading a 'great' new book," the Daily Mail reported. "The King feels closer to his wife than ever. The couple are a 'remarkable unit,' courtiers say, and she has kept it 'real' for him."

Voting Parents

Whenever I go to vote I always remember going with my mother to vote. She would always say that voting was important but that I must not reveal who she votes for. It was a secret. Then we would go into the booth- I miss booths-pull the level and the curtain closed. I would hold her purse. And watch her pull a lever up or not. I never saw her waiver or pause. She knew who and what she was voting for. Then we went to the movies because I was home because I got the day off. I have often thought that they should make Election Day a national holiday. I believe they do that in Australia. I am grateful for lot of things she did but showing me how to vote was an important one.

She also took me to mass every Sunday-so it evens out

Look at the CNN exit poll of 20,000+ voters. Especially the question of their family's financial situation today vs. 4 years ago. Compare the results of Harris voters vs. Trump voters.

If she doesn't eek out a win, let this be a lesson to all future Presidents, inflation is absolute political poison, whether it's your administration's fault or not, the voters will hold you accountable.

Obama tells Black men it’s ‘not acceptable’ to sit out election

Former President Barack Obama on Thursday admonished Black men who he believes have not adequately supported Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign, telling them it’s “not acceptable” to sit out this election and suggesting they might be reluctant to vote for Harris because she’s a woman.

The striking comments by Obama, made to a small group of voters in a surprise stop at a local Harris campaign office in Pittsburgh, were part of a more forceful campaign message delivered by the former president on Thursday as polls continue to show a neck-and-neck race. At a rally in the city later that evening, Obama issued some of his most searing public criticisms of his successor to date.

The lack of energy some see around Harris’ campaign, Obama told the group, “seems to be more pronounced with the brothers.”

“You’re thinking about sitting out or supporting somebody (in former president Donald Trump) who has a history of denigrating you, because you think that’s a sign of strength, because that’s what being a man is? Putting women down?” Obama said. “That’s not acceptable.”

The problem, he suggested, was less complicated than some are making it out to be – and that it often comes down to sexism.

“You’re coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses, I’ve got a problem with that,” Obama said. “Because part of it makes me think – and I’m speaking to men directly – part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that.”

As CNN reported, Harris had been focused on turning out Black men even before she took over as the Democratic nominee, trying to get the enthusiasm there for President Joe Biden.

“The concern is that the couch is going to win,” one person close to the Harris team told CNN. “We need to make sure that Black men, Hispanic men, don’t sit on the couch. Because if they don’t vote at all. That’s (a) vote for him.”

In response to the Harris campaign’s struggle to recreate, in short order, the multiracial Biden coalition of 2020, campaign operatives and allies have been offering a similar directive to the Obama delivered in Pittsburgh, often privately working to make the case to voters in close-up, intimate spaces.

Last month in Milwaukee, Harris’ brother-in-law, Anthony West, quietly attended a local meeting of the NAACP – a technically nonpartisan group whose members are filled with influential, mostly Democratic state activists and organizers.

Not One Person had a factual reason to vote for Trump

Taxes? They are proposing a 25% national sales tax so poor people can't buy stuff.

Deficits? Trump added %8 trillion to the national debt and he wants more tax cuts for the rich and corporations so Social Security and Medicare will be cut. Obamacare will be destroyed so most people will go without insurance and die young. A death panel by a different name.

He plans to deport ag workers and impose huge tariffs on foreign producers which Americans will pay for with higher prices, particularly for food ( alot of AMerican don't realize most of our bread is made with wheat germ from China)

Overtime rules will be eliminated. Tort reform will stop anyone from suing an employer. Trump will assassinate domestic enemies but people will only know that others have disappeared mysteriously.

Every day will bring a new foreign poicy disaster. There will be a political purge of our generals, thus ensuring we lose any attempt to stop China from taking Taiwan. Trump will always put the energy company needs first, and damn climate change.

MAGA gays feel left out of LGBT movement

They’re here, they’re queer — and they’re not invited.

Trump-loving LGBT conservatives say they are marching to the tune of their own drum after finding themselves ostracized by the increasingly left leaning gay rights movement.

Mark Dorman, a retired teacher from Hell’s Kitchen, said he has been all but blacklisted from the Atlas Social Club, his local gay bar, since he spoke positively about the former president there last summer. “I’m almost anti-gay,” a frustrated Dorman, 64, told The Post. “It’s an embarrassment to see this kind of behavior… I’d really invite them to go to Iran or Gaza. See what that does for you. See how fast they throw you in prison or kill you.”

“It feels like the Soviet Union, Marxist environment now,” he said. “With the gay community, they feel that Republicans on the far right have an anti-gay thing. Yes, they have a certain religious belief. They have a right to say they don’t like that lifestyle.

The signs were clearly evident years ago — when his politics nearly got him kicked to the curb by his own hubby, Dorman said. “When Trump won, my husband was so upset he wanted me out of our apartment. The rage was unexplainable — I mean honest rage. I could not understand this emotion in him and why anyone would let a political vote destroy or nearly destroy a marriage,” he said.

The Republicans, however, will prop him up through the midterms in 2026 so there isn’t a blowout. They will then deal with his various impairments. Tell me, how is this serving the country?

Nevada votes thrown into chaos because young voters can’t sign their names

Vote counting in Nevada has been thrown into chaos because young people cannot sign their own names, a state official has said.

Absentee ballots in the state require a voter’s signature to match with signatures already on file in state or federal databases.

Roughly 13,000 mail-in ballots have been rejected across Nevada because the signatures on their ballot did not match the signatures in the system, secretary of state Francisco Aguilar said on Tuesday.

The signatures of younger voters did not always match what was on their driver’s licences, he added.

“It’s mostly the fact that young people don’t have signatures these days,” he explained. “And when they did register to vote through the automatic voter registration process, they signed a digital pad … and that became their licence signature.”

State officials were “frantically” reaching out to young voters to rectify the issue, US media reported.

“We need to ensure that every voter’s voice is heard,” Mr Aguilar said outside a Las Vegas voting site.

He said his office was sending guidance to counties across the state to ensure the signature verification process was “being applied equally across the state”.

According to reports, the number of rejected ballots in Nevada is much higher than in previous years.

Mr Aguilar expressed fears that the sheer number of ballots requiring fixing could mean the state would be late in declaring which presidential candidate was victorious.

“When you start to look at the data and you start to realise how high it is, it makes you nervous, because, again, these races are so close, the margins are so slim, that I don’t want to look at the numbers tonight and know that we have to wait for ballots to be cured.”

Votes in Nevada have until Nov 12 to correct a mismatched signature.

It is Joe Biden’s fault.

“As shocking and depressing as Trump’s victory is, it is less surprising when one considers the incumbent president. Joe Biden: A wildly unpopular figure who many see as doddering and fundamentally incapable of doing the job of the presidency. Long before Biden’s disastrous performance in his late-June debate with Trump, it was obvious that most voters had concluded that his presidency was a failure. Biden’s successes—his legislative accomplishments, his management of inflation and the post-pandemic recovery, and his role in expanding NATO—didn’t register with voters, either because they were things most people don’t care about or because Biden’s increasing inability to effectively communicate hindered his ability to sell his ideas. What is clear, however, is that he was blamed for things he had little control over: rising prices, global conflict, continued political dysfunction. Voters had little faith in his ability to manage the economy (where he actually did a good job) and foreign affairs (where he markedly did not)….

“… Harris obviously deserves blame here, but it’s Biden who deserves the greater share. It was clear two years ago that voters had concluded that he was too old to serve a second term, but he stubbornly clung on. By the time he stepped aside—by most accounts thanks to the considerable effort of Democratic powerbrokers—it was too late. Harris was the only conceivable Democratic nominee. Given only 100 days to run a presidential campaign, she was dealt an extraordinarily bad hand. We will never know what would have happened if she had broken more strongly with Biden, but her status as his vice president made doing so extraordinarily difficult. By the time she became her party’s nominee, it was too late. The race’s stakes were fixed long ago: This was a referendum on a presidency that most voters rejected more than a year ago.”

Patrick Mahomes’ mother endorses Donald Trump before Monday Night Football

At least Patrick Mahomes’ mother didn’t have to change her shirt color to declare her allegiance to Donald Trump.

In a video shared by conservative outlet OutKick on X, formerly Twitter, Randi Mahomes stood in a luxury box Monday before her son’s game wearing a red Make America Great Again hat and red Kansas City Chiefs sweatshirt.

“Make America great again, let’s do it, whoo!” she said, raising her arms.

The declaration before her son quarterbacked the Chiefs to a home victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers counters Taylor Swift’s political stance.

Swift rocked the world with her Kamala Harris endorsement over the summer and is dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

The “Anti-Hero” singer still appeared to be friendly with Mahomes’ wife Brittany after the latter reportedly “liked” a Trump social media post about his campaign platform. She then lashed out at people who made disparaging comments and got a thank-you from the Republican nominee for her support in early September.

As for the three-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback, he’s staying mum on the endorsement front.

Shirley MacLaine: Marilyn Monroe had both Kennedy brothers in bed hours after she sang ‘Happy Birthday, Mr. President’

Shirley MacLaine says Marilyn Monroe went to bed with both John F. Kennedy and his brother Robert on the same night.

The Oscar-winner, 90, makes the scandalous claim in her new coffee book, “The Wall of Life: Pictures and Stories from this Marvellous Lifetime,” which features a photograph from May 19, 1962 — the night Monroe breathlessly sang “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” to JFK.

MacLaine was present at the event and says she attended an afterparty where she saw President Kennedy leave a bedroom with Monroe inside.

Shockingly, MacLaine asserts that Robert F. Kennedy — who was then serving as US Attorney General — entered the room immediately after, presumably to have sex with the “Some Like It Hot” star straight after his sibling did.

“In 1962, at the famous celebration for John F Kennedy’s 45th birthday at Madison Square Garden, Jimmy Durante and I performed for the president and the crowd, but what most people remember is Marilyn Monroe singing “Happy Birthday” to him,” MacLaine writes in her book.

“Afterward there was a private party at [Democrat finance chairman] Arthur Krim’s home… Jack Kennedy had just walked out of the bedroom behind me, and Bobby [Robert] Kennedy had just walked in. Marilyn was in the bedroom.”

Monroe died just three months later. President Kennedy was assassinated late the following year.

In her new book, MacLaine also shares another photo implying both JFK and RFK had been up to no good.

Beneath a snap taken in 1984, she writes: “Here I’m telling Teddy Kennedy that story… and he’s laughing about how the boys got away with it all the time.”

MacLaine isn’t the first to allude to the Kennedy brothers both being embroiled with Monroe on the evening she sang “Happy Birthday, Mr. President.”

In her new book, “Ask Not: The Kennedys and the Women They Destroyed,” former Post columnist Maureen Callahan claims that 30 minutes before Marilyn sang to JFK, she had sex with Robert in her dressing room.

“They spent 15 minutes alone together,” Callahan writes in her book.

She alleged the actress arrived on stage “drunk and flush with the transgressive sex she’d just had with Bobby [Robert], her dress so tight she could hardly walk.”

Callahan went on to allege that First Lady Jackie Kennedy was “furious” after the performance, which left JFK “slack-jawed” in the audience.

The author wrote Jackie then gave her husband an “ultimatum.” She forbade him from seeing Monroe again, saying “she would divorce him — taking the children and costing him a second term [in the White House].”

According to Callahan, however, Monroe’s relationship with RFK continued.

RFK even allegedly visited Monroe the night she died at her home in Los Angeles: Aug. 4, 1962.

“The FBI and the CIA, Bobby and Jack discovered, had bugged Marilyn’s house and phone line without her knowledge… Bobby wasn’t leaving without the tape recordings,” she wrote.

Meanwhile, the Kennedys aren’t the only politicians that MacLaine writes about in her new book.

The “Terms of Endearment” legend revealed a “scary” encounter she had with Donald Trump.

“Back in probably the 1980s, I interacted with Donald Trump,” she wrote. “I was at some function, and when he walked in, he saw me and straightened up. He started pulling at his tie, and I could tell immediately that in his mind he was starting to take off my clothes… and his.”

“It was scary just how obvious he was being,” MacLaine claimed”. “He even figured out a way to try to stop me from leaving, but I had to get out of there.”

The King and Queen of Spain were pelted with mud by angry citizens

The country's Valencia region was hit by deadly floods last week, with the death toll climbing to 217 people as of Monday, Nov. 4, per the Associated Press. The Spanish royal couple traveled to the area on Nov. 3 to comfort people who had been impacted by the disaster, but growing frustration among the victims led Letizia and Felipe—along with Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and other officials at the scene—to be pelted with mud and other objects.

According to the Daily Mail, the royals "remained calm and made several efforts to speak to individual residents" after the incident, but the local officials "fled" the scene after members of the crowd turned violent.

"What do you expect? For us to tell him sweet nothings?" a local man said of King Felipe, per the publication. The supermarket worker, who lost 12 coworkers in the flood, blamed the government for the disaster. "They wanted to kill us. The first thing you have to do is warn people when a dam is about to be overwhelmed and broken," he said.

"He should come here and get rid of the mud and the dead that are in garages. And then he'll be one of us."

Letizia and Felipe appeared to be uninjured, although one of their royal protection officers was hit with an object in the face and was bleeding, per the Daily Mail.

Queen Letizia—who had dirt covering her face and jacket—appeared distraught over the devastation she witnessed, bursting into tears in a video shared by the BBC as she spoke with victims and gave one woman a long, tight hug.

King Felipe of Spain holding his hands up in a crowd of people King Felipe of Spain holding his hands up in a crowd of people After a member of the crowd screamed insults at him, the Spanish king snapped back, replying, "If you want, I won't come and I'll stay in Madrid," referring to the royal palace. It certainly seemed to be a case of damned if you do and damned if you don't, as the royals would have faced extreme criticism if they hadn't visited the area hardest hit by the flooding.

That being said, the royals were scheduled to visit another Valencian town but opted not to attend after the incident, while residents "reportedly shouted 'cowards' at the absent monarchs," per the Daily Mail.

The Spanish king later shared his thoughts on the visit, telling officials (per the Guardian, via People), “One has to understand the anger and frustration of many people given all that they have gone through, as well as the difficulty in understanding how all the mechanisms work when it comes to the emergency operations."

Russia is celebrating Trump's win

MOSCOW (Reuters) - New opportunities to reset relations between Moscow and Washington have opened up, the influential head of Russia's sovereign wealth fund said on Wednesday after Donald Trump declared victory in the U.S. presidential election.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 triggered the biggest confrontation between Moscow and the West since the 1962 Cuban missile crisis when the Soviet Union and the U.S. came close to nuclear war.

Both Russian and U.S. diplomats say relations between the world's two largest nuclear powers have only been worse during the depths of the Cold War.

Kirill Dmitriev, CEO of Russia's sovereign wealth fund and a senior figure in Russia's political elite, said that Trump's team had won the presidency and the Senate "despite a large-scale disinformation campaign directed against them".

"Their convincing victory shows that ordinary Americans are tired of the unprecedented lies, incompetence, and malice of the Biden administration," said Dmitriev, a former Goldman Sachs banker who has previously had contacts with the Trump team.

"This opens up new opportunities for resetting relations between Russia and the United States," added Dmitriev, who has regularly met and offered advice to President Vladimir Putin.

Trump, a Republican, claimed victory in the 2024 presidential contest after Fox News projected that he had defeated Democrat Kamala Harris, which would cap a stunning political comeback four years after he left the White House.

In 2009, then U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton proposed a "reset" with Moscow, but due to an apparent translation error presented Moscow with a symbolic button labelled "overload" in Russian instead of "reset".

Despite the "reset", relations between President Vladimir Putin and Barack Obama soured.

Trump, 78, has repeatedly promised to swiftly end the war in Ukraine if elected, though he has not explained exactly how he would do that.

Putin has repeatedly said he is ready to talk about a possible end to the war, but that Russia's territorial gains and claims must be accepted, something that is anathema to the Ukrainian leadership which has said it would amount to capitulation on their side.

Putin has also spoken of the need for Moscow to be given security guarantees.

Russian forces are advancing at the fastest pace in at least a year in Ukraine and control about one fifth of the country.

That includes Crimea, which Moscow annexed from Ukraine in 2014, about 80% of the Donbas - a coal-and-steel zone comprising the Donetsk and Luhansk regions - and more than 70% of the southern Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions.

Ahead of the U.S. election, Russian officials from President Vladimir Putin down had said it made no difference to Moscow who won the White House, though Kremlin-guided state media coverage showed a preference for Trump.

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said on Wednesday that Trump's win would probably be bad news for Ukraine, but that it was unclear how far Trump would be able to cut U.S. financing for the war.

"Trump has one useful quality for us: as a businessman to the core, he mortally dislikes spending money on various hangers–on and stupid hanger-on allies, on bad charity projects and on voracious international organisations," Medvedev, a senior security official, posted on his official Telegram account.

He said that the Ukrainian authorities fell into the category of people Trump was likely to not want to spend too much money on and suggested the Ukrainian leadership would be doing what it could to console itself if it was confirmed he had won.

"The question is how much Trump will be forced to give to the war. He's stubborn, but the system is stronger," said Medvedev.

Conservative group’s ‘watch list’ targets federal employees for firing

An organization funded by the conservative Heritage Foundation has compiled an online “watch list” of federal employees it claims cannot be trusted to secure the U.S. border and should be fired, a sign that supporters of Donald Trump’s immigration policies are preparing to help him neutralize the administrative state they believe tried to thwart his first presidency.

The “DHS Bureaucrat Watch List” — a website unveiled in the final weeks of a presidential campaign in which immigration is a key issue — names 51 federal policy experts and high-ranking leaders, the majority of whom are career civil servants at the Department of Homeland Security and other agencies. The group identified them largely using public social media comments, prior work experience and campaign finance records.

Among the employees’ actions cited by the group are posts celebrating the legalization of same-sex marriage or lauding the contributions and successes of undocumented immigrants, as well as donations as little as $10 to Democratic candidates. One employee union likened the effort to unearth the private views of public employees to Sen. Joseph McCarthy’s 1950s-era campaign to purge federal workers he accused of being communists.

William V

Within just a few years--maybe even sooner--there will be a new king of the British throne, William V. Charles finally became king, but he his cancer, is reportedly pancreatic, and the life expectancy for that is usually less than two years.

If William does rule, Catherine will of course be queen, though she also has cancer, and the rumoprs are that it is ovarian or uterine. Those can turn nasty or are survivable, depending in when she was diagnosed with them. No one other than Prince George--who will automatically become Duke of Cornwall and Rothesay, but not Prince of Wales, which is a title that has to be granted by the sovereign--will gain any other titles automatically.

The big changes will be decisions made about Prince Andrew and Prince Harry. William is rumored to be more tough-minded about them than his father. It is unknown how he feels towards Queen Camilla, although they seem to get along, and his wife and the Queen definitely get along very well. It is likely Charles will provide very well for Camilla in his will, and of course he could not have her title as queen dowager removed (that would be beyond the king's abilities without the consent of Parliament).

King Charles 'finally cuts Prince Andrew off' as he 'axes Duke's annual £1m allowance'

[quote]Marking a new low in the brothers’ ever-faltering relationship, the King made the decisive move to cut the disgraced duke off, Royal author Robert Hardman has said. King Charles has reportedly instructed the Keeper of the Privy Purse, the official in control of royal finances, to end his brother’s annual allowance, believed to be worth around £1 million. Andrew will also lose his multi-million-pound private security deal, Hardman claims.

[quote]Andrew's private security has been privately funded by Charles after he lost publicly-funded police protection in 2022 amid allegations of sexual assault. “The duke is no longer a financial burden on the King,” a source told the MailOnline.

Assuming Harris wins and we have a Dem vice president, for Senate Democrats to keep the majority, it would require either an upset in Montana, saving Jon Tester, or they would need to see Ted Cruz lose to Colin Allred in Texas.

Neither seems likely.

Tyson Chicken CEO's "erratic" behavior could cost him his job

At around 1 a.m. on June 13, John Randal Tyson, the slim and boyish 34-year-old scion of the Tyson Foods empire, tried to level with the Fayetteville, Ark., police officer who just pulled him over for suspected drunk driving. “Can I ask you a genuine preference?” Tyson says in a bodycam video, one hand to his chest, perhaps in an effort to convey sincerity. “Which is, like, if I get in trouble tonight, my life will be ruined.”

The statement is not a question or a preference, and it sounds like the hyperbolic ramblings of a guy who has had too many Miller Lites (which Tyson says he was drinking that night, according to the police report obtained by Fortune). But it’s easy to understand why, in that moment, he felt doomed.

At the time, Tyson was CFO and chief sustainability officer at Tyson Foods, a $21 billion company founded by his great-grandfather and headquartered in adjacent Springdale, Ark. And his arrest in June was the second time he’d been collared for an alcohol-related crime since becoming Tyson’s chief financial officer, and the youngest CFO in the Fortune 500, in 2022.

In November of that year, just six weeks after he started the job, it was widely reported that Tyson was found sleeping in a stranger’s bed and charged with trespassing and public intoxication. (He eventually pleaded guilty and paid $440 in fines.) He was thought to be in line to become Tyson Foods’ CEO, but his two arrests in 19 months have now thrust his future at the meat processing giant into doubt.

“My life is over, man,” Tyson says in the video published online by an account called Arkansas Police Activity and labeled as University of Arkansas Police Department footage, as he awaits a breathalyzer test at the station. He tells the officer that he doesn’t hold the arrest against him: “It’s on me.” He eventually blows a .191, more than double the legal limit for blood alcohol content while driving, a detail that also matches the arrest report. “F**k!” he says, after signing a form to decline a second test.

He was able to keep his corporate job last time around, but this time Tyson Foods suspended the young executive that day and named Curt Calaway, an 18-year Tyson veteran, interim CFO, without indicating whether John Randal Tyson would return. They need a strong CFO on the job: Over the past two years, Tyson Foods has shuttered several meat-packing plants and laid off thousands of people.

The cuts are part of a so-far successful bid to return to profitability in its chicken division and to offset losses in its beef business, its largest by revenue, as it deals with inflation. It has also recently begun to call itself a protein company—producing meat, but also frozen breakfast sandwiches, deli meats, and plant-based burgers, sausages, and nuggets under various labels. Two years ago it took a minority stake in Protix, an innovative Dutch firm making insect meal used in animal feed.

But John R. Tyson’s problematic behavior raises serious questions about leadership inside his family’s Fortune 100 company, which processes an estimated one-fifth of all chicken, pork, or beef consumed in the U.S. At a time when nepotism and corporate “nepo babies” are squarely in the cultural crosshairs, how did the family justify putting a 32-year-old into the CFO job; why did it keep him there after his first arrest; and what happens next?

Expectations for billionaires have changed, says a lifelong Fayetteville resident who has ties to the Tysons but asked to remain anonymous because of the family’s influence in the region. It used to be that people reliably looked the other way when local business titans misbehaved, because families like the Tysons pour so much money into the community, he says. But people expect accountability now, he continues, and “[t]hey’re not averting their eyes.”

Serious question: why doesn’t free speech in America include public nudity?

In America, public nudity is a very serious crime that can land you on the sex offender registry, the idea being that public nudity offends people’s moral sensibilities. On the other hand, it’s perfectly legal to hold a march or a rally to declare one race to be inferior to the other because it’s “free speech.” Why doesn’t this offend people’s moral sensibilities?

Am I crazy to think that a reasonable person should be more offended by “racial superiority/inferiority” talk than the human body? In Germany, it’s the opposite public nudity is legal but hate speech is not.

Prince Harry Shares Why He Won't Bring Meghan Markle Back to the U.K.: 'It's Still Dangerous'

Prince Harry shared his fears of bringing Meghan Markle back to the U.K.

The Duke of Sussex, 39, spoke about his safety concerns for his family during a new interview for ITV's documentary Tabloids on Trial, which premiered on July 25. When asked if his high-profile lawsuits against the press are bringing more attention to himself, he laughed and replied, "There is more than enough attention on me and my wife anyway."

"They pushed me too far," he continued. "It got to a point where you're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't. But I don't think there's anybody in the world better suited and placed to be able to see this through than myself."

"It's still dangerous, and all it takes is one lone actor, one person who reads this stuff to act on what they have read. And whether it's a knife or acid, whatever it is, and these are things that are of genuine concern for me. It's one of the reasons why I won’t bring my wife back to this country."

Prince Harry previously said he "felt forced" to step back from his royal role and leave the U.K., citing security concerns for his family. Soon after the couple announced their decision to step back as senior working royals, the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (RAVEC) removed their automatic right to U.K. police security. Although the Duke of Sussex offered to cover the costs of security, the bid was rejected, and earlier this year, High Court judge Peter Lane upheld the decision to downgrade his security.

Prince Harry plans to appeal the decision. "The Duke is not asking for preferential treatment, but for a fair and lawful application of RAVEC’s own rules, ensuring that he receives the same consideration as others in accordance with RAVEC’s own written policy," a legal spokesperson said.

In a statement to the High Court in London at the time, Prince Harry said that he needed police security for his two children — Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3 — "to feel at home" in his native country.

"The U.K. is my home. The U.K. is central to the heritage of my children and a place I want them to feel at home as much as where they live at the moment in the United States," Harry said. "That cannot happen if there is no possibility to keep them safe when they are on U.K. soil."

"I can't put my wife in danger like that, and given my experiences in life, I'm reluctant to unnecessarily put myself in harm's way too," he added.

Martha Stewart says Ryan Reynolds is 'Not So Funny in Real Life'

Ryan Reynolds isn't going to let Martha Stewart get the last laugh.

The Deadpool & Wolverine star, 48, responded to Stewart's viral comments about him being "not so funny" off-screen as he is on-screen in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, Nov. 2.

After Stewart, 83, made the statement on Bilt Rewards’ November Rent Free game show about Reynolds, who she said is her neighbor in Bedford, N.Y., Reynolds wrote, "I’d disagree with her. But I tried that once." "The woman is unexpectedly spry. She really closed the gap after a mile or so," he added.

During her Rent Free appearance, Stewart was asked by Bilt CEO and founder Ankur Jain which celebrities she thought respondents had named as the most fun to hang out with.

“He’s probably on the list just ‘cause he covers himself up in his movies and you don’t see his face — Ryan Reynolds, is he one of those?” she asked, before adding: “And you want to know something? He’s not so funny in real life. No, he’s not so funny. He’s very serious.”

After sharing that her personal picks would’ve been Brad Pitt and George Clooney — and mentioning the likes of Snoop Dogg and Taylor Swift — Stewart admitted she "would take Ryan off [the list], and I would put in somebody else."

“He’s a good actor,” the lifestyle guru further acknowledged of Reynolds. “He can act funny, but he isn’t funny. Maybe he can get to be funny again ... I’m going to get in trouble."

Remembering CARYLL ANN EKELUND

IN MEMORIUM: Nov. 3, 1939 ~It was 85 years ago Hollywood lost a tiny angel in film industry. At just 4½ years old, and with one brief screen appearance in a solo film, little CARYLL ANN EKELUND's short life was extinguished in a tragic Halloween accent. She was born in the rural hamlet of northern California's Cottonwood in the shadows of nearby Mount Shasta. Her parents had plans to try film business for their young family. A favorite film in Caryll Ann was "The Wizard of Oz", which debuted just 10 weeks before her death, which she relished with her five older siblings, who affectionately called her 'Sissy'. She was thrilled in being apart of the magic of playing for the movies. It didn't take long to be cast in a film much like the "Wizard of Oz", called "The Blue Bird". A fantasy film starring the popular Shirley Temple, was also filmed in both black and white, and in color. Four-year-old Caryll Ann Ekelund appears as an unborn child in the film, who is impatient to wait her turn to be given her gift of life. Though her role was only a minute of screen time and with no spoken words, her sweet cherub face was forever remembered for generations of film audiences. Her early passing forever immortalized her, never forgotten nearly a century later. According to Shirley Temple, her co-star in The Blue Bird (1940), in her autobiography "Child Star," she was killed after a lighted birthday candle at home ignited her dress and burned her to death. Her five older brothers acted as pallbearers while a graveside quartet sung her favorite song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" from The Wizard of Oz (1939) when she was interred at Forest Lawn Cemetery. Her burial shroud was the unborn child toga from her role in The Blue Bird (1940), who was released posthumously just 8 weeks later.

What does one do when you absolutely hate your given name?

I personally love my name. In fact, I thank my mother all the time for having the good sense to choose the names that she chose for both myself and my sister. It is not the deciding factor in whether you will have a happy life, not by any stretch, but certainly, the name that your mother chooses is her very first opportunity to give you a head start in life. If she makes the wrong choice and you are unlucky enough to be saddled with an unattractive name, it can be a real cross to bear, especially as a child.

Which got me wondering, what do these people do? If you are stuck with an awful name like Graham, or Marcus, or really any first name with the letter m (which is the ugliest letter in the alphabet) ... what do you do?

Would you consider changing your name if the one you were given sucked bad enough?

I’m sure by this point he was just over attention whore Cooper.

Beyonce's Halloween Costume...a double standard?

Why is it ok for Beyonce to go as Pamela Anderson for Halloween (going in "white face" - even though she didn't do pale make-up) yet if any other ethnic group did this, they (we) would be dragged over the coals. Is this a double standard or something people can only get away with if they are celebrities?

Not looking to start an argument about racism...but curious what are peoples thoughts.

They did an amazing job at showing where each bullet hit Jose and Kitty Menendez, but I was actually shocked by the choice to show it in such detail. It was incredibly violent. I actually found the choice shocking.

Cooper and Nicholas did a phenomenal job on this series. After this Lyle goes back to the car and load another bullet, goes back in and shoots another load into his mother.

Video: Jason Kelce Smashes Fan's Phone for Gay Slur About Travis, Taylor Swift Remark

Former NFL star Jason Kelce was involved in an incident with a fan at Penn State who used a gay slur when talking about his brother, Travis, before Saturday's game against Ohio State.

Footage of the incident shows Kelce walking amid a crowd of fans when a voice can be heard using the slur while asking about Travis' relationship with Taylor Swift. Jason then grabs the person's phone and slams it to the ground. (Videos contain offensive language.)

Subsequent videos of the incident appeared to show Kelce picking up the person's phone after hurling it to the ground

Kelce announced earlier in the week that he would be attending the Buckeyes-Nittany Lions game at Beaver Stadium. It was his first trip to Happy Valley and was part of an event involving College GameDay.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have been dating for more than a year. She has been in attendance at several Kansas City Chiefs games since their relationship started, including Super Bowl 58 in February.

During the offseason, Travis was on stage as part of Swift's performance during the Eras Tour when it made a stop at Wembley Stadium in London.

Jason announced his retirement from the NFL in March. The 36-year-old played 13 seasons from 2011 to 2023, all with the Philadelphia Eagles.

"The great and powerful Elon Musk. If it wasn't for him we'd be f***ed. He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you'll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way," Rogan said on Musk's social network X, formerly known as Twitter.

After their son came out, this religious conservative couple went into a closet of their own

As soon as Greg McDonald Jr. saw his parents, he knew he was in trouble. His father stood waiting for him with his arms folded and his brow furrowed. Beside him was Greg’s mother, her eyes red and puffy.

“Quick, pretend you’re interested in me,” Greg Jr. told his friend Betsy as he steered the speedboat toward the dock at his parents’ riverfront home outside Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Greg Jr. had just taken a group of friends out for a rollicking boat ride. It was late in the summer of 2001, and he was about to head off to his first year of college. In just a few weeks the 17-year-old thought he’d be free.

But while Greg Jr. was away his father, a conservative Christian, had checked his computer’s search history. He’d heard stories of young men being corrupted by the internet and had discovered his son’s secret: visits to gay porn sites.

As Greg Jr. stepped off the boat with his friends, his father looked sternly at the group. “You need to leave,” he said to the other teens.

Once they were alone, the father turned toward his son.

“Are you—?” he asked.

“Yes, I am,” Greg Jr. said, cutting his father off as he walked past his parents toward their house.

“You could be an axe murderer, and we would always love you,” his father called out after him. “But we need to get you fixed.”

You may think you know what happened next. Greg Jr. prayed to God for deliverance. Pastors condemned him. Church members shunned him. Longtime friends disappeared, and he wrestled with shame because he felt like he had failed God and disobeyed the Bible.

But that’s not what happened to Greg Jr. That’s what happened to his parents, Greg Sr. and Lynn McDonald.

Their son’s admission would send the McDonalds on a journey that forced them to make agonizing choices about their faith and family. They would be thrust into the middle of a hidden crisis afflicting the conservative Christian community. And how they responded to their son’s admission would mushroom into a scandal — one that prompted two of the most prominent evangelical pastors in America to publicly question each other’s faith.

What triggered all these events was one fateful decision: After their son came out, the McDonalds went into their own closet.

I discovered gay porn on my son’s laptop

Hello. I discovered this wonderful site nearly 3 years ago and you people here are so funny and fearless. I rarely create but felt obliged to do so after discovering something rather shocking today. I’m a retired dental assistant having been a full time housewife and mama bear of 2 cubs lol for the past ten years. Anyways after the settlement from my divorce, I decided to return to college as a full time student. Online classes rock. My own computer recently broke and I needed to do some research for a paper for my politics and psychology class which is due at midnight tonight. Anyways, I decided I needed to get this done and didn’t really feel like going to Best Buy to get my own computer serviced. I swear I wasn’t snooping but I went into my oldest son’s bedroom and logged into his laptop. I remembered I knew the password from a science project I helped him on freshman year. I was unnerved when I found gay porn in the hidden chrome tabs while browsing the web.

My son is 17 yrs old and captain of the football team. He is actually at a game right now which I usually attend but it’s cold and I think I may be catching a cold lol. My son has only ever dated girls since the 7th grade. He doesn’t act stereotypically gay and is the quarterback on the team. He is a big Billie Ellish fan but I thought that may be normal for both guys and girls his age. I would totally love and embrace him but this is all just so surprising to me. It makes me think he is struggling with his sexuality. Or perhaps maybe a friend was using his computer? He has one gay friend who sometimes spends the night. His uncle, my ex husband’s youngest brother, is also gay. Should I confront him about this to help him deal? His younger brother who is turning 13 next week, idolizes him. Positive recommendations on what I should do, are welcomed.

National Guard troops on standby for ‘potential’ election unrest

Ahead of potential civil unrest due to Tuesday’s presidential election, the National Guard is on standby as a precaution in several states, including Washington state and Oregon, where hundreds of ballots were damaged or destroyed after at least three ballot drop boxes were recently set on fire, officials say.

Almost all the ballots set ablaze on Monday were in a drop box in Vancouver, Washington, while most ballots in a drop box in Portland, Oregon, survived a fire set the same day, election officials said. The incidents are believed to be connected to a third fire on October 8, also in Vancouver. Portland police released a physical description of a suspect but said they’ve not identified him.

Washington Gov. Jay Inslee addressed the ballot box fires in a news release Friday announcing the National Guard being placed on standby, saying, “The southwest region of Washington state has already experienced specific instances of election-related unrest.”

Inslee did not disclose how many troops would be activated on Tuesday, but said they will be available to support law enforcement from Monday to Thursday, according to the news release.

The US Department of Homeland Security has warned that threats to “election infrastructure” remain high, Inslee added.

“Based upon general and specific information and concerns regarding the potential for violence or other unlawful activity related to the 2024 general election, I want to ensure we are fully prepared to respond to any potential additional civil unrest,” Inslee said.

In Oregon, Gov. Tina Kotek said in a statement Friday the National Guard is standing ready as political leaders call for peaceful protests, according to CNN affiliate KTVZ.

“The governor’s office is closely monitoring and coordinating with local, state and federal agencies to ensure Oregon voters can safely cast their ballot,” the statement said.

While there is “no current information to suggest unrest,” Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler said, according to KTVZ, “there is a lot of uncertainty and tension in our community.”

A great thread that had my reading for hours. Tommy Lee Jones and Jared Leto come up with unsurprising regularity. Some, like Shaq have severe swings in reactions, some calling him the greatest, most friendly and others hating him. Michael Jordan and Kobe are not favorites either. This is a one of the best posts I've ever read on Musk:

Elon Musk. He stayed at a mountain resort that I worked at in 2018 . He was luckily only there for 3 days but he was an utter terror the entire time he was there.

He refused to be checked in at the reception area and demanded a private check in at his cabin which is fine but we ask ahead of time so we can staff properly for the later arrivals.

He asked for the youngest female concierge on staff to be sent to the check in with nobody else for "security" reasons. I took the check in myself instead of sending the 19 year old and took the largest and oldest driver I could find for security reasons.

He wanted the personal cell phone numbers for all female concierge staff. I said that is against out policy and set him up with the resort app so he could contact whoever was on duty for a prompt answer.

He harassed every single female employee so nastily that by the time he had been there for 12 hours every department switched him to only male staff. He didn't tip any of the wait staff or guides for any activities. He booked a private horseback ride that a wrangler was brought in specially for the day and then refused to go because he didn't like the colors of any of the horses available , and he wanted to ride a really "butch and muscular" horse. He meant a draft horse, which we had for pulling wagons but none for riding.

He also had insane demands. He wanted a 80 year old beautiful ponderosa pine cut down because he didn't like how the light hit it at sunset. He wanted shock collars put on the squirrels to stop them from being too loud. And he wanted us to trap a grizzly bear and bring it to his cabin for a few hours so he could take pictures and study it.

He was the rudest, stupidest and most arrogant POS I have ever encountered.

Mysterious white blobs washing up on Canadian beaches stump experts

Beaches across Canada's far northeast Newfoundland and Labrador province have increasingly been littered with mysterious white blobs. Their appearance has so far befuddled scientists, and led Canadian officials in the region to launch an investigation.

Beachgoers first noticed the unusual blobs on the shores of Newfoundland and Labrador in September. People quickly started sharing photos of the gelatinous clumps on a Facebook group with more than 40,000 members that is dedicated to exploring the region's coastal areas.

"Anyone know what these blobs are. They are like touton dough and all over the beach," wrote Philip Grace on the Beachcombers Facebook group, comparing the finds to a regional dish. "These were in sizes ranging from dinner plate size right down to a toonie [Canadian 2-dollar coin]."

Some people speculated online that the mystery blobs could be the result of ships dumping substances into the ocean. Others suggested they could be whale sperm, whale vomit or even ambergris, a byproduct of sperm whales that's valued for its use in perfumes and other products.

But the experts weren't to be dragged into the speculation.

Environment and Climate Change Canada, the government agency responsible for investigating the mystery, simply referred to the blobs as "a mystery substance" when asked by CBS News on Tuesday.

Newfoundland resident David McGrath told The Guardian newspaper that he'd seen hundreds of the items scattered across his local beaches.

"They looked just like a pancake before you flip it over, when it has those dimpled little bubbles. I poked a couple with a stick and they were spongy and firm inside," he told the newspaper. "I've lived here for 67 years, and I've never seen anything like this. Never."

"They sent the Coast Guard over and I asked them how bad it was. They told me they had 28 miles of coastline littered with this stuff and had no idea what it was," McGrath said. "Is it toxic? It is safe for people to touch?"

Samantha Bayard, a spokesperson for Environment and Climate Change Canada, told CBS News the agency was first informed about the "mystery substance" on beaches on Sept. 7. Environmental emergency officers visited sites at least three times to assess the situation and collect samples.

"To date, ECCC has conducted several aerial, underwater and manual surveys of the beaches and shorelines in the area to determine the extent of the substance, what it is and its potential source," she said. "At this time, neither the substance nor its source has been identified."

Bayard said a preliminary laboratory analysis by the agency suggested the material "could be plant-based," but stressed that additional analysis was required "before a final determination can be made on the substance and its potential impacts."

Stan Tobin, a local environmentalist, told CBS News' partner network BBC News that he'd found "hundreds and hundreds of blobs — big blobs, little blobs."

"Somebody or somebodies know where this came from and how it got there, and knows damn well it's not supposed to be here," Tobin told the BBC.

BREAKING NEWS: Timothée Chalamet tongue-raped by GOOP!

All under the guise of a "film shoot"! Poor Timmy can never fucking unsee this!!!

--------------

Gwyneth Paltrow and Timothee Chalamet were photographed kissing – for their new film!

The 52-year-old actress and 28-year-old actor kissed while cameras were rolling for their movie Marty Supreme on Wednesday night (October 16) in Central Park in the Manhattan borough of New York City. Plot details for this film have been kept under wraps, however, it is believed that Timothee‘s character is loosely based on Marty Reisman, a ping pong great who was known as the “Wizard of Table Tennis.”

Marty Reisman, who died in December 2012 at the age of 82, was a table tennis champion who started his career in Manhattan as a hustler, playing for bets and prize money. He won 22 major ping pong titles from 1946 to 2007 and won five bronze medals at the World Table Tennis Championships. At 67, Marty competed in the United States National Hardbat Championship and became the oldest player to win an open national competition in a ract sport.

The political vision influencing Vance, Thiel, and Yarvin

[quote] Reason and revelation concurred that the polity requires coordination of individuals to the common good by coercive authority, and therefore hierarchy and headship, although that headship need not be monarchical. However, like most of their contemporaries, Jesuits regarded monarchy as the best form of government. Although authority as such is natural and necessary, the element of consent is the political community’s freedom to choose its own form of government. The alterability of most laws implies an “absolute” ruler. However, the authority of any ruler or regime is limited by fundamental laws, natural and divine law, and the natural and legal rights of subjects, as well as the right or threat of tyrannicide.

While democrats are out there voting, phone banking & canvassing for any & all votes right up to the finish line, this man indulges himself upon a delusion that what liberals are REALLY doing, is challenging him & his militia pals to a duel.

''Trump Unity'' events seeking LGBT support for Trump

'In the half-empty hotel ballroom where the event took place, there were no rainbow flags, preferred pronouns were mocked and gay men were vastly outnumbered by their straight counterparts.

Several LGBTQ attendees at the event, nearly all of whom were white gay men, told NBC News they were unbothered by LGBTQ issues being mentioned only briefly or not acknowledged at all by the evening’s speakers.'

'Trump fundraiser Bill White, who also spoke at the Charlotte event and is openly gay, pushed back on naysayers who question the former president’s commitment to the LGBTQ community. He challenged critics to attend one of Trump’s rallies, where Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” frequently blasts out of the speakers.'

“What does the guy do at every rally?” White said at the Charlotte event. “He puts his hands in the air and does his dance moves to the unofficial gay national anthem for crying out loud.”

'When asked what they hoped a second Trump presidency might accomplish for LGBTQ Americans, gay Trump supporters said they believed society and the government were already free of prejudice against the LGBTQ community.'

Don Webber, 57, who works for a financial services company, said the LGBTQ community needs to “get away from that victim mentality.”

Actress Terry Moore, 94, Says Ex Howard Hughes Did 'Unthinkable Things'

The actress, now 94, tells PEOPLE about eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes, who died a recluse in 1976.

At 94, actress Terry Moore is one of the last surviving actors from Hollywood's golden era.

"I started at 10 years old and never quit," says Moore now starring in Silent Life, a film about the silent screen star Valentino, screening Saturday, April 22, at the USA Film Festival in Dallas. "I have worked longer than anybody else."

Along the way, the actress — who was nominated for an Oscar for her role opposite Burt Lancaster in the 1952 film Come Back Little Sheba — has known many of the biggest legends: Marilyn Monroe (who was "adorable and very sensitive") Elvis Presley (she turned him down for a date because "I knew nothing would ever come of it") and Howard Hughes, the tycoon with whom she fell in love as a young actress.

To this day, Moore remains conflicted about the eccentric billionaire, an aviator and film producer 23 years her senior. He died a recluse in 1976.

"It was very complicated," she tells PEOPLE of their on-and-off relationship that spanned eight years. "It was the first time I was ever in love. [But] I would have been just as happy if it hadn't had happened."

They first met in the late '40s at a Hollywood restaurant. Moore was a young teenage actress then out with her boyfriend.

"My agent brought him [Hughes] over," recalls Moore over a recent Zoom interview from her Los Angeles home. "We thought it was accidental but nothing was accidental with Howard. It was all set up."

"It developed into a friendship and then into a great love," says Moore. "You can't be more eccentric than he was. Everything was bigger with him."

"He taught me to fly and we spent a lot of time in airplanes," she says. "And he would take me to meet his pilot friends. He was dashing, exciting, adventurous."

"He was the most charming man you could ever find," she recalls of the man who once owned RKO Studios, adding: "He was also a liar. And he did unthinkable things. He did so many things that hurt me. Was he cruel? I guess you could say he was cruel but I didn't know that he was cruel. He was just too much for me to handle. I was too naive."

Looking back, she says, "I think he paid for it in the end. He had a terrible death. He could manipulate so much. I was too young and too innocent."

Hughes died of kidney failure in 1976, leaving behind a fortune of some $1.5 billion. His final years were spent living in various hotels surrounded by a few close aides and shrouded in secrecy. His 6'4" frame had shrunk to a reported 100 lbs.

Moore later claimed they had been married on a ship in 1949 in international waters.

But, to this day she's not sure if it was a valid ceremony. "I don't know if it was," she says. "We got married on a boat by his captain who could marry anyone, but who knows?"

The ceremony was never verified and Hughes reportedly tore up the records. Before long, Moore (who was raised in a strict Mormon faith) returned to live with her mom. In 1957, Hughes married actress Jean Peters. In 1959, Moore married Stuart Cramer with whom she had two sons.

After Hughes's death, a Texas court rejected Moore's claim of marriage. However in 1984, his heirs awarded her an undisclosed financial settlement.

At the time, Moore, who wrote a book about their relationship titled The Beauty and the Billionaire, said it was "not more than eight figures."

Today, she prefers to think of happier times. She reminisces about her long-ago costar Tyrone Powers (he was "so sexy and beautiful") and onetime date James Dean (he was "okay, but not compared to Tyrone Power"), and appreciates a new generation of actors, including Leonard DiCaprio.

She says DiCaprio reached out when he was preparing for his role as Hughes in the 2004 Martin Scorsese film The Aviator. "He called me a few times and he was so nice," she says. "I mean, he was such a sweet boy."

Iranian female student strips in protest over strict hijab dress code

A female student at a university in Tehran stripped to her underwear in an act of protest after being harassed by campus security officers over her hijab.

Videos circulating widely on social media show the unidentified student sitting outside the campus in her underwear while the security guards surrounded her.

Another video shows her walking around the campus in her bra and knickers while stunned fellow students film her on their mobile phones.

Her act of resistance began after a confrontation inside Azad University’s science and research centre on Saturday, when security forces physically attacked the student because she was not wearing a headscarf.

In response to having her clothes torn, she chose to remove her remaining garments as a protest, according to Iranian student social media news channel, the Amir Kabir newsletter and witnesses who spoke to The Telegraph.

Multiple witnesses confirmed her subsequent detention by the authorities. Video footage showed security officers abducting her from the campus.

About 10 security guards were captured on video forcibly bundling the young woman into a vehicle. The footage showed a group of officers overwhelming her before she was detained.

“Oh God, how many of them are attacking just one person?” one onlooker was heard saying. “I can’t believe what I’m seeing,” another said.

“Around noon, near the entrance of the faculty, I saw a girl being grabbed and forcibly taken by security forces,” one witness told The Telegraph from Tehran.

“She wasn’t wearing a headscarf. Then they reached the security building near the entrance, where a male and a female security guard grabbed her and tried to take her into the office with force.

“She resisted, and her hoodie was torn off her body, it made her very angry and she took off the rest of her clothes.

“She angrily yelled at them and took off her trousers - she sat outside the campus for a few minutes and the officer became more aggressive.

“I couldn’t see much but, a few minutes after she started walking, several plain-clothes officers ambushed her and forced her into a car.”

Student media outlets reported that she suffered injuries during the arrest, including severe head trauma after being struck against a vehicle. Witnesses said traces of blood were visible at the scene.

Trump Aides Had To Stop Him From Nicknaming Biden With Juvenile Slur

According to a story published by The Atlantic on Saturday, the Republican candidate for president was eager to call his rival “Retarded Joe Biden” after the Democrat’s lackluster debate performance in early summer.

“The guy’s a retard. He’s retarded. I think that’s what I’ll start calling him,” Trump reportedly told staffers traveling with him on his campaign plane, Trump Force One, back in June.

Trump’s aides urged the former president to table the juvenile moniker, telling him it could alienate moderate voters and garner sympathy for an already wilting Biden campaign.

Actors you wish had been more prolific

Watching lots of old movies lately and I can’t help but wonder what might have been with some of the actors I’ve watched whose careers seemed somewhat short lived.

Samantha Eggar was a beautiful, stylish British actress who peaked in the 60s. Her career seemed to trail off in the 70s. She had the kind of cut glass English accent and looks that could rival Joan Collins on Dynasty. She also guest starred on a lot of Aaron Spelling shows in the 70s and 80s that I wonder if she wasn’t a consideration for Alexis too.

James Fox is another actor whose career somewhat lagged in the 70s when he decided to become an evangelical Christian. I sometimes watch Michael York in the 70s and wonder if he didn’t run of with Fox’s career.

Best summation ever: "And then, before some in the audience had even found their seats, the party was over."

[quote]Standing in the bowels of Madison Square Garden on the evening of Sunday, October 27, an irate group of Trump staffers, family members, and loyalists was looking for someone to blame.

[quote]The prime-time show playing out just beyond their corridor had been eight years in the making. Trump, hailed as “the man who built New York’s skyline” by a roster of celebrity speakers, would stage an elaborate homecoming to celebrate his conquest of the American political psyche. It seemed that nothing—not even the $1 million price tag for producing such an event—could put a damper on the occasion.

[quote]And then, before some in the audience had even found their seats, the party was over.

[quote]The first presenter, a shock comedian named Tony Hinchcliffe, told a sequence of jokes that earned little laughter but managed to antagonize constituencies Trump had spent months courting. One was about Black people carving watermelons for Halloween; another portrayed Jews as money-hungry and Arabs as primitive. The worst line turned out to be the most destructive. “I don’t know if you guys know this, but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now,” Hinchcliffe said. “I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”

[quote]The blowback was instantaneous.

As someone who has been suffering the highs and lows on this election season, particularly the last month, this is perhaps the best news of the entire cycle. The Trump campaign has imploded. They know they're losing, and the blaming, name-calling and career-salvage operations have begun.

Seriously, go read the article in [italic]The Atlantic.[/italic] It's worth the subscription price if you're not already there. It chronicles the demise of the Trump campaign from looking like it was going to be a Reagan-esque landslide victory a scant 100 days ago, to a totally mismanaged, out-of-control shit show in which now they're fighting to keep it even close in hopes of having futures in the political arena.

And it shows: Trump is troweling on the makeup to cover what his actual skin looks like after the stress of running a campaign as a 78-year-old adderall addict, grasping at "garbage" straws, simulating blow jobs from the campaign event stage, and behaving so erratically that even diehard MAGAts are turning away in shame. JD Vance has disappeared. And the people who have worked for nearly 2 years to bring Trump back to the White House are now so confident of his loss that they're willing to spill their guts to Tim Alberta in an effort to salvage their reputations, even knowing that Trump's retribution will be legion when he loses.

So, so sweet.

Well, she did look like Doris Day. I just had to say it.

A new nurse came to visit my elderly mother today. I wanted to meet her, so I showed up for the appointment. The woman was very pleasant and professional. As she was getting to leave we had a nice conversation about her work and just some general chit-chat.

At a certain point, I blurted out, "Did anyone ever tell you, you look like Doris Day?". She laughed, said no, blushed and hurried out. I thought I was giving her a compliment. But she did, she really did look like Doris Day circa 1964. Sort of.

I feel like such a fool. I guess it's something you're just not supposed to do. Anyway, on a scale of 1 to 10 how dumb was that?

Past presidents and this election

I know that our past presidents included people who were quite frankly racist and owned enslaved people.

I still wonder what they would have made of the current election.

I'd like to think Lincoln would have been a Harris voter - but I suspect the fact that she is a woman might have given him pause.

Pretty sure FDR would have supported Harris, no problem.

The R. presidents that I think would have supported Harris are Gerald Ford and Bush Senior. Not sure about Eisenhower, who I think would refrain from voting (and be anti-Trump in public).

I believe Washington would have been disgusted with the entire thing. But I think Jefferson would have been intrigued and possibly a Harris supporter.

You thought they would be major stars after watching them one role. You were wrong.

There are actors where the first time I saw them in roles of significance, I ran to IMDb to check their names. Some people are simply talented.

However.

There are many, many, more I thought would go on to get great roles but didn’t. Sure, many have enviable careers that 99% of actors would kill for. But I expected more. That they would have more buzz surrounding them. Maybe that they would be more be bigger stars, or work consistently with world class or be competing with A-Listers for the highest quality shows or movies. Certainly, that they would have good roles in stuff that I like.

Extremely Racist ‘Comedian’ Speaks at Trump Rally, Calls Puerto Rico ‘Garbage’

Speaking at Trump’s rally in New York, Tony Hinchcliffe said Latinos “love making babies” and called Puerto Rico “a floating island of garbage”

Controversial comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made several racist comments about Latinos at former President Donald Trump’s rally on Sunday at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

“I welcome migrants to the United States of America with open arms. And by open arms I mean like this,” Hinchcliffe said, waving his hands “no,” then waving his hands forward to indicate that they should go away.

He continued: “It’s wild. And these Latinos, they love making babies, too, just know that. They do. They do. There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside, just like they did to our country.” He then cackled, adding: “Republicans are the party with a good sense of humor.” Hinchcliffe then called Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory, “garbage.”

Cost of Mpox Shot Deters Americans at Risk

A particularly deadly form of mpox, formerly called monkeypox, has led to more than 48,000 cases and more than 1,100 deaths in Africa this year. The Biden administration has donated one million doses of the vaccine to affected countries.

But in the United States, mpox vaccines are out of reach for many people who need them.

In the 2022 outbreak that reached this country, doses of the mpox vaccine, Jynneos, were made available for free from the federal stockpile. That arrangement ended in April, when the vaccine became available commercially.

But insurance companies do not yet cover the vaccine or, if they do, reimburse only a tiny fraction of the cost. Some young gay or bisexual men hesitate to use insurance, because they are not out to their families.

And some people at high risk of mpox, including those with H.I.V., are less likely to have any form of insurance at all.

“This is a massive bump in the road, and especially because it’s happening in the middle of deep concern about another outbreak,” said Dr. Stacey Trooskin, executive medical officer of the Mazzoni Center, a large sexual health clinic that serves the L.G.B.T.Q. community in Philadelphia.

The virus circulating in Africa has not yet reached the United States. Still, the outbreak overseas has led to a rise in the number of Philadelphia residents seeking the vaccine.

But at nearly $300 per dose, the clinic cannot afford to absorb the cost of immunizing them for free. And private insurance companies are not required to cover Jynneos for free until Jan. 1 (sooner if an employer-sponsored insurance plan begins earlier).

That timeline is “deeply disappointing,” Dr. Trooskin said. “Our patients need and deserve access to vaccine now.”

There are two genetically distinct forms of mpox: Clade I, seen mainly in the Democratic Republic of Congo and other Central African countries, and Clade II, which caused the worldwide outbreak in 2022, mostly among gay and bisexual men.

Clade I mpox is typically acquired from consumption of or contact with infected animals, and kills as many as 6 percent of those infected. It is most dangerous for children under 15.

Who's watching Netflix's 'Deceitful Love' ?

Just finished this six episode Italian series on Netflix, and can't wait to watch it over again. Well acted, well scripted - and plenty of eye candy for gay guys with a constantly shirtless Giacomo Gianniotti (some great ass shots, too). He shares two gay kisses with adorable actor Francesco Del Gaudio , who shows us his hairy chest plenty of times in the series. Sexy Emanuel Caserio has more delicious gay scenes with his 'secret lover'. Not enough shirtless or ass scenes of him. Excellent work from each of these three studs.

The storyline is intriguing, as the viewer doesn't know who to side with throughout the show. The cast is so believable in their roles, starting with the leas actress Monica Guerritore (I need to see more of her past work now!).

Wacko FL Surgeon General to run HHS?

Joseph A. Ladapo is on a list of HHS secretary candidates being assembled by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has been charged with helping select staff for the nation’s health and food agencies if Donald Trump wins office, according to the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the planning process. HHS is responsible for overseeing Medicare, Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act; approving vaccines, medications and health-care devices; coordinating responses to disease outbreaks; and numerous other priorities across its nearly $2 trillion budget.

Ladapo, who has served as Florida’s surgeon general since 2021, has repeatedly defied public health practices — such as failing to urge parents to vaccinate their children or keep unvaccinated students home from school during a recent measles outbreak — drawing scorn from public health experts who say his decisions have imperiled Florida residents.

‘I constantly was saying no’: ex-Abercrombie & Fitch boss accused of abuse at global sex events

Mike Jeffries, now 80, has been accused of exploiting young men for sex in cities around the world from 2009-15

The former chief executive of the American fashion brand Abercrombie & Fitch faces new allegations this weekend of exploitation and abuse at sex events held around the world.

One witness said he attended a sex event in Spain with the former fashion boss Mike Jeffries and his British partner Matthew Smith, believing it was going to be a photoshoot, the BBC reported. Young men were injected with liquid Viagra at other events, according to witnesses.

A BBC Panorama investigation last October first revealed claims that Jeffries and Smith had exploited young men for sex in cities around the world from 2009 to 2015. A middleman involved in the events denied wrongdoing and said men went to the events “with their eyes wide open”.

A US lawsuit filed against Jeffries, Smith and Abercrombie & Fitch last year alleged “international sex trafficking and abuse of prospective models”. Legal representatives for Jeffries stated in court documents that he denied all allegations and, alongside Smith, asked the court to dismiss the lawsuit. A legal document filed on behalf of Smith was reported to state that the claim “does not detail any specific, factual occurrences” of an alleged sexual offence by him. Abercrombie & Fitch said last year it hired a legal firm to conduct an independent investigation. It said the current board of directors had not been previously aware of the allegations, and it had “zero tolerance for abuse, harassment or discrimination of any kind”.

A boy followed me into the restroom one morning. I thought nothing of it. He cornered me and then he pulled out a knife and stuck it at my chest. He said.” I want that jacket and I want it now. I said, get that fucking knife away from me before I turn it around and put it in your eyeball. He was stunned. He said who the fuck are you? Said who the fuck are you right back at him. Then I shoved him back. Hard. He flew about 6 feet and landed on his ass with the knife still in his hand. He got up, called me a fucking bitch and ran out of the bathroom. I just stood there in the mirror, wondering what was happening looking back I don’t blame him. He was desperate and he just wanted my coat. And mine was the coolest jacket in the school.
