IMO, Kim Mulkey is a POS.

Diaz: “I just wanted to get your thoughts on Brittney Griner’s situation. I don’t think I’ve seen anything from you on that ...”
Mulkey: “And you won’t.”

"Kim Mulkey’s silence on Brittney Griner is petty, pathetic, and gross"

It doesn’t take bravery to support Brittney Griner, just a shred of human decency. Griner’s former coach, Kim Mulkey, couldn’t be bothered to clear the lowest of bars. Mulkey, who coached Griner at Baylor from 2009-13, has been one of the few people who personally knows Griner and still elects to remain silent since her arrest in Russia back in February for possession of less than one gram of hashish oil.

Sometimes things don't hit me until long after the event...re: Jan 6th insurrection attempt

Has anyone wondered WHY there were no extreme measures installed in the Capital building for just such an occurance OR
did no one ever imagine such an event would happen.
It seems to my little pea brain that there should be sleeping gas dispensers installed in these important buildings. If not a gas, then extremely loud noises that would be very difficult for a human to handle.
There has to be someway to deal with this kind of attack, right? One that doesn't require the killing of people?

What is God's job?

I mean, honestly, what is that being supposed to do for mankind?
What can God do for a person that they cannot do for themselves?

Kanye West Says He's Never Read A Book

That explains a lot.
Kanye West shared that he’s repulsed by literature, comparing books to a vegetable often despised by children.
The hit-maker’s confession comes after a Rolling Stone report that parents were required to sign nondisclosure agreements to send their children to his tuition-based Christian private school. The school, Donda Academy, is named after his late mother, Donda West, who was a professor.

What a loser.

Just finished The Kings Avatar on Netflix

Anyone who enjoys video games should get a big kick out of this series. The acting, on the most part, is very good, the story line is believable and it has a satisfying ending.
Recommended!!
Also, the anime is good too, but difficult to find.

Question about Handmaids Tale

Is it completely depressing? Will I want to commit Seppuku after every episode? Or is there hope involved in this series?
My psyche cannot handle another absolute downer of a show.
Thanks
PS There are two reasons why I haven't watched Game of Thrones. One, I heard that you had not get attached to a character unless you want your heart snatched out and two, the ending sucked.

I have had tinnitus since about 1986. Most of the time I don't even notice.

It is like a bunch of cicadas in my head, but it is what it is. NOW, in the past two weeks, I've noticed something new in my head to compete with the cicadas. It is evidently called "The HUM" and is like a an aquarium air pump in there.
I can ONLY hear this when I am trying to go to sleep, but I am worried that it will get louder and more annoying.
Anyone else have The Hum and how are you handling it? Does it get worse or stay the same level?

The next time a magat complains about inflation, or really ANY other issue they may have...

I am very tempted to just say, "Why don't you just pray it away?" Isn't God omnipotent? And IF it is just part of his "plan", why are you bitchin?
Yeah, I'm in a mood this morning.
