Will Smith hits like a girl.
It wasn't a punch. It was a slap, and it snapped Rock's head around. If he'd meant to knock him cold he would have.
Sure, if Ali were a girl. Smith apologized later to the Academy, but not to Chris Rock. Smith’s wife, Jada, has alopecia, so is bald now. Rock joked that she would be in “GI Jane 2”.
Let’s all forget about politics and burrow into the security of celebrity gossip.
(Yawn),
I really don’t care…do you?
Nope. I was watching Mrs. Maisel and South Park instead
Mrs. Maisel has run out of steam.
I'm only on season one, so I'm sufficiently entertained
Yep. First season was great. Second was good.
I also liked third season, but not fourth. Fifth season will be its last, sayeth the Palladinos.
If you think slapping another man in the face on tv is outrageous behavior, wait until I tell you about the people who tried to overthrow the government.
I don’t really care much, either, but it was at the top of all the widgets on my homepage when I fired up my laptop this morning
Yeah, it was everywhere. And, sure it was stupid.
But, rich people do lots of stupid things. I guess it is just that thing about billionaires mistreating millionaires. Hard for me to take a side.
More Gaga and Liza, less Will and Chris, please.!
The Oscars non-news for Colorado — David Sirota did NOT win for work on a film. I was told Emily his spouse (my Representative) was not at a meeting because she was in LA for the Oscar awards show.
Smith used an open hand because paper beats rock.
I'll show myself out.
Get thee to a punnery, Genghis!
that's good …
Biden's statement about Putin "this man cannot remain in power" reflects what we all believe. It will be repeatedly used by propaganda master Putin on Russian media as clear evidence that the West wishes to defeat Russia. He'll use it to build national sentiment and deflect from the genocide in Ukraine.
I think Biden's comment was brilliant. It clearly came from the heart and is what we all (except Trump & Carlson) are thinking.
I was not wild on Biden. I expected him to be a good caretaker president returning us to a semblance of normalcy. I wanted more, but I'll take that.
But he's shown himself to be equal to this existential challenge. I am so glad we have him as our president. Not just for that speech, but for his actions too building immense support for Ukraine.
George Will FTW (from the weekend shows):
It wouldn't have raised an eyebrow but for Russia being Russia. Certainly Dubya's ultimatum to Saddam Hussein generated little response despite the pretense for the war being false. Or the EU's demand for Gadaffi's ouster. Or…
While everyone is talking about Will Smith/Chris Rock…I'm all Lady Gaga whispering to an obviously struggling Liza Minelli, "I've got you."
Most touching moment of an Oscar Ceremony in a very long time….
💯 %
Yes..^^^this^^^
I am all gaga about Gaga.
'Twas a tender and touching moment for Lady Gaga.
Trump likely committed felony obstruction, federal judge rules
Can’t we just enlist Ben Kuck’s Julesburg Jihad to take on these zany Corn 🌽 Huskers with bulldozers? Maybe our little watermelon farmer can enlist his army of fearless watermelon hunters to shore up Ovid?
Nebraska wants to build a $500 million canal over the border. Can Colorado stop it?
Doesn’t that guy know water’s for fighting over? When we’re in a “persistent dought” I don’t think we’re going to be feeling generous with the little water we’ve got. Let Nebraska solve their own problems.
Months ago when Pfruit was parading around as a supply chain expert we discussed the work of Ryan Petersen of @Flexport and his 21st-century ideas of how to build a resilient supply chain. He's landed himself on the cover of the current edition of Forbes. Turns out that Brandon (whose doing an apt job on the world stage right now) wasn't the core problem. Who'd have thunk?

Here's one for the "At Least He Isn't Your State Senator" file. Seems Sen. Bruce Bostelman (R-Of Course) took to the floor of the Nebraska Senate to explain "furries" to his colleagues. And hoo wee, what a goddamn mess.
There are students who constantly wear cat or other animal ears. Being a “furry” is a fashion statement, another silly thing adolescents do to stand out from the crowd. They understand that they are biological human beings, not critters.
Apparently Bosterman does not remember his own teen years, nor understand fashion. But his rant about “furries” is really just an attack on trans kids, and an attempt to avoid accommodating their changing names and pronouns, let alone bathrooms and sports team issues.
I forgot the "kitty litter" thing has a basis in the "Freedom isn't free; there's really nothing that can be done about that" world of the ammosexuals.
Approaching from a different direction, these young people are examining the phenomenon native Americans call "the Totem".
Most people are aware of "totem poles" as a tall obelisk with one animal on top of another. This symbol is part of the native understanding that each of us has a special relationship to another animal. That animal is our totem and discovering which animal that is and studying its ways will help unlock a better understanding of yourself.
I watched a report about "furries" somewhere, and as memory serves, they have a metaphysical relationship with the animal they select to emulate. The fashion thing is an undeniable attraction, but I got the idea it goes a little deeper than that.
It is likely I completely misunderstand the whole thing…but I think it is interesting. And the furries are cute.
Public charter and “innovation” schools must treat teachers equitably, the Denver School Board ruled March 25. Charter and Innovation schools must
This reform is much needed, and hopefully, other school districts will follow suit. I’ve subbed at various charter schools, and seen and heard how teachers are often abused, taking on more classe with no planning periods, being subject to administrator whims and favoritism, and more.
