  1. https://www.thecollegefix.com/marriage-promotes-white-supremacy-george-mason-professor/ why do we pay these people? “I theorize that marriage fundamentalism, like structural racism, is a key structuring element of White heteropatriarchal supremacy,” Professor Bethany Letiecq wrote in the Journal of Marriage and Family. “Marriage fundamentalism can be understood as an ideological and cultural phenomenon, where adherents espouse the superiority of the two-parent married family,”
  2. https://www.news4jax.com/news/local/2024/03/08/florida-lawmakers-unanimously-pass-bill-to-combat-squatting-giving-property-owners-positive-hope/ Seems like a positive step.
  3. https://beta.ctvnews.ca/national/politics/2024/3/6/1_6797025.amp.html Canada is going off the cliff. No way this doesn't shut down protests. Bill C-63, also known as the Online Harms Act, seeks to introduce harsher penalties for existing offences. It would allow sentences of up to five years behind bars for hate propaganda, up from the current two years. It would also allow a judge to impose lifetime imprisonment for advocating genocide. Such moves are "draconian," the Canadian Civil Liberties Associated has warned, adding that they could stifle public discourse, including through "criminalizing political activism." Is using the term "from the river to the sea" advocating genocide? Time to elect a new government up north.
  4. I see no reason pay attention until October ... maybe November. Ignore all social media to maintain old friends that didn't already fall off in 2020.
  5. Google is "fixing" Gemini. Everyone knows where Gemini started out. Its too late for that. Maybe Google should leave Gemini alone, let it learn and evolve, and see it becomes conservative? Ba Da Bum. https://www.foxbusiness.com/media/google-releases-new-gemini-update-give-users-more-control-ai-chatbot-responses
  6. He was right the first time, and the second time. Why is this such a big deal?
  7. it seems like Colorado would get picked over Utah. Or maybe pick both and leave out Pitt. Edit: I see he was looking at four 6 team divisions by region.
  8. https://apnews.com/article/new-york-city-subway-national-guard-crime-f046ecaac79601f6113efa8a0c8f25 Who’s in charge of these cities?
  9. I feel the same way about voting in Colorado. We are a blue state headed the way of Cali. My vote for Haley in CO didn't mean much either. Trump got 63%. It surprised me that Trump hit 70+% in states like Cali and Mass.
  10. Agreed. This decision wasn't about Trump. I would be against a state doing this to Biden because some election official or secretary of state decided he was unfit.
  11. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna132291 All 9 judges agreed.....this was a no-brainer. "The ruling makes it clear that Congress, not states, has to set rules on how the 14th Amendment provision can be enforced against federal office-seekers. As such, the decision applies to all states, not just Colorado. States retain the power to bar people running for state office from appearing on the ballot under Section 3.
  12. Austin used to be a nice place. I remember being able to stay downtown, walk around, enjoy good food and music. Always felt safe...except maybe at Halloween. I am not sure why people don't just vote in better leadership. https://www.foxnews.com/media/austin-brink-disaster-police-shortages-hit-crisis-level-god-help "Previous councils and leadership have actively worked against our officers and department, which has now put us in a free-falling staffing crisis," Bullock warned. "Twice now we’ve had our contract voted down or it has been allowed to expire. Each year since 2017, we’ve lost more officers than we’ve hired. We had to gut our specialized units and force detectives to work backfill on patrol just to try and respond to 911 calls." Last year, the department was on the verge of a staffing collapse after 40 officers filed retirement papers following a 9-2 city council vote to scrap a four-year contract that the city had previously agreed to in principle and instead pursue a one-year contract that the police union’s board had rejected. "As a result," Bullock continued, "our staffing has been set back at least 15 years and at the same time we’ve dealt with a population growth of over 250,000 new residents. Combine that with a district attorney who has made it very clear that targeting officers and releasing criminals is his priority – not public safety."
  13. Not so utopian after all. Maybe this is all the beginning of the common sense awakening. NEW YORK -- New York City Mayor Eric Adams is slamming the city's sanctuary laws, saying he supports working with federal immigration officials. It comes after recent high-profile crimes allegedly committed by migrants, including an assault on two NYPD officers in Times Square last month and a tourist shot earlier this month during a robbery inside a Times Square clothing store. Didn't some judge let these guys go, and when the outrage happened they caught them and one was let go with a 1 dollar bond? They need to clean out the DAs and judges too. "The mere fact that we cannot share with ICE that this person has committed three robberies and this person is part of an organized gang crew ... The mere fact we can't say that and communicate that is a problem for me," Adams said. It's a problem period... https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/5-suspects-in-times-square-assault-on-nypd-officers-due-in-court-friday/?ftag=CNM-00-10aab4i&_amp=1*7cjs2g*s_vid*MVVXRElQdHpINUdpRHdCRU90bmRENnVyVkh6NlVpRjBYZHRzVy14LW1EVGNNRUw2NElSZVZINVpyUzEzdnFMbQ..
