There is a movement to get Paw Patrol cancelled because one of the characters is cop, a cartoon dog cop is controversial in 2020. I think its finally time to brush up on my survival skills and move to Alaska, this world is not for me.
No. Not really. Here is a shitty article from a local news station that features a tweet from PepperoniDave (53 followers) and a tweet from Boooory (51 followers) that said to Cancel Chase and Defund Paw Patrol.
Maybe you should be wondering why such a shitty story and crappy editorials are published and what the motivations behind it are.
I’ll spend my Friday not worrying about PepperoniDave and his tweets

Well the New York Times found it fit to print so it made it a bit further than that...

The fact that the Pacific Northwest has been overtaken by a bunch of rogue vegans and it has barely moved the needle on America's collective conscious tells you just how drunk 2020 is.
Here's another story about that mess. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!

Also, I just finished that "Lance" documentary and I feel pretty confident that he is a textbook sociopath.
If you want to make it in this world today, you’ve got to be smart enough to realize that even the most widely known news outlets create stories whose main sources are a handful of anonymous, random Twitter users.
And judge their “news” accordingly.

In a 24/7 365 minute by minute news cycle, you’ve gotta create news content by any means necessary. If your profits aren’t continuously increasing on an infinity time scale you’re a failing business.
So work every angle, create an angle if you need to, and always remember to stoke fear, feed one side’s inherent bias while shitting all over the other side’s inherent bias. Clicks, ratings and profits are self sustaining if you engage emotionally. “News” is boring and people don’t care about things they aren’t offended by. All these billions won’t print themselves.
Unless, of course, you’re the federal government. In that situation, you gotta protect your power and re-election. So you pick a side, follow the “news” to get the pulse of your loudest constituents, and you pander to them at all costs. The loud ones influence the silent ones, or the silent ones don’t bother voting.
Once elected you can retreat to the back rooms where the real money lives and pass laws no one actually reads written by the companies who funded your campaign. Want to get a little something done for your State, that’s cool, but I’m going to need you to slide in a, b, and c. Don’t worry, no one will notice or care that much, they’re too busy arguing with each other on Facebook and Twitter.
Rinse, repeat, push us all further apart.

Absolutely not, but it won’t hold me back from having very, very strong opinions about the matter.
Little League “small group practices” are starting up soon. 52 covid rules. By far the best one is that kids can’t ride their bikes or walk to practice located in a public park (kids in this town ride their bikes everywhere fwiw). Going to be a blast!
I remember when there was some logic behind some of these rules.
I read it. Here's the author. Nothing like letting someone who looks like this trigger Americans. Well done, NY Times!
It’s almost like there are too many rules because there are too many lawyers. Yet, the biggest complainers seem to be lawyers (present or former). It’s almost like you guys made your own bed here. Wow.
Well you see Max (because we asked)...
Children have been sheltering in place at home under parental supervision. When you use a car parents are able to shelter their kids in their own car and transport them from their home cocoon to the baseball field small groups cocoon. Sanitize upon arrival and upon departure and all is good.
If kids roam the streets on their bikes or walk without supervision, we lose all control of the virus and it’s impossible to effectively perform contact tracing.

All the lawyers on here have been practicing long enough, we won't even mount a defense...just insert Alonzo Mourning gif.
I don’t know what terrifies me more — ANTIFA or radical Islamic terrorists. I can barely leave my house in fear of either.
I’m old enough to remember when Satanic cultists were the ones to worry about
Hard to imagine Tommy beating someone at basketball

Like a screen door in a hurricane.
-She seriously looks like a 3rd grader.
-There's no group in the world I'm less intimateed by than ANTIFA. A pack of girl scouts could take back the 2 blocks they're "occupying."
-Never really dove in on a political/news story like I have with covid. What they're doing is disgusting and it's almost all media and both polical parties. Comfortably numb moving forward on these things.

With Bubba Wallace doing his thing in NASCAR, now would be the time for him to bust out the 70's movie Greased Lightning starring Richard Pryor and Beau Bridges. It is about African / American race car driver Wendell Scott battling racism while trying to make it in a white mans sport. Could even change his name to Wendell Wallace or Bubba Scott. That would get the NASCAR fans woke, after getting the confederate flag removed from tracks, dude could stamped his permanent career in NASCAR. All of that praise just a month after losing his sponsor for quitting a video game. What a country.
is “Antifa” some kind of foreign word for “white people taking minority problems and making them about themselves?”
Rewatched the UK-Miss St game from 2010 (Cousins “call me” game). The amount of pure, unadulterated hate pouring out of that program and fan base during the end of that game says all that needs to be said about Starksville. Trash. Everything about them. Purebred, registered trash.
* Gonna make the long drive to Destin tomorrow. I need a vacation.
I'm sure I'll get guilted in to taking the kids down to the beach a few times, but I would be perfectly happy lounging in the pool all day.
* Do laxatives work? Asking for a friend.
* 'Bout to spend $300 on getting my car detailed. sch
* I wouldn't be worried about Antifa, but that SOB Obama took all my guns.
* Watched Snowpiercer the other night. Unique. Not sure if I liked it or hated it.
* Getting a Golden Tee arcade game for Father's Day. It has 4 different versions on it (3 courses each).
* I have perfected the shrimp taco.
* Brady James, what is the name of your card store? There are a few '76 Reds I need to complete my collection.
* Damn, I look good with a freshly shaved head and styled facial hair.

Similar reaction here - that movie was hoisted upon me by both daughters and it left a couple of memories ...the unsettling kind mostly
speaking of tacos ...I always hated the idea of fish tacos but found I loved them in AZ - they CAN be the best taco possible
also - the slight change to use chopped cabbage marinated in lime/pepper (apparently an “authentic Tucson/Sonoran thing”) — while also ditching the cheese — makes a world of difference
