Cirls Gone Wild

This Trump supporter's vote counts just as much as mine. Why is Bill Gates not in jail? Why is Hillary Clinton not in jail?

This is why I could not be a public servant. I could not sit there and listen to that.

And why is everyone so keen to constantly try and rehabilitate Mike Tyson's image? I know that perhaps we should not be judged on our worst moments, but his is raping someone. There's a laundry list of other awful stuff. But he's always lurking around the public in some fashion --- a cartoon (for god's sake), multiple comeback attempts, The Hangover, appearances on talk shows.

That's it for this episode of "You Know What Grinds My Gears???" See you next week!

So if fetuses are people or whatever, why didn't pregnant women get $500 more in that stimulus package?

This one wench on FB who was a friend of a friend that I'd never met, said, "I see that you have children. What if your pregnant wife was MURDERED, would you want the killer tried for one or two murders?" as part of her argument.

I'd want them drawn and quartered... which is why I don't think grieving spouses should be making laws.

This is why I need a mobile EMP device. Idiots like that need their hardware fried for the sake of civil society.

I hadn't been to fangraphs or any baseball site since probably March, but I took a look today. I hope they can keep the players safe and have a season.

yeah, I feel like it's a mistake, but I so want to watch the Sixers again.... but I think it's a mistake.

I am one part hopeful and excited and nine parts worried. I don't think the players are going to obey the safety protocols. Tom Brady is representative of a large contingent of players who don't believe it's dangerous. And then it becomes unmanly for the rest of the players to wear masks in the clubhouse and otherwise follow the protocols. Frequent testing can only do so much without a broad and cross-party societal agreement to take this much more seriously than we are. Every man for himself doesn't work in situations like these.

Aside from the embarrassing Adria Tennis Tour ... this is Liverpool players celebrating winning the EPL last night.

These are UK beaches yesterday:



Barely anyone wears masks here. We are almost certainly doomed to a second wave.

So the US has a fierce "don't tell me what I can and can't do" mentality. What's the philosophy in the UK that is keeping people from doing sensible things?

It's the same here, and the Government know that, so they don't want to compel people to do what's needed because of how it might impact them come election time.

Can't the Queen lock all the mask-flouters in the Tower?
