Alright, let’s see what we have. I’m going through a lot of news, and also quite an old back-log of stuff that I’ve e-mailed to myself over the years, so I’ll be adding in some older articles I think are worth taking a look at over the next week or so. But, first up, Randy Rainbow reminds us to stay at home and social distance!
This has been the talk of all my friends recently, but it was found out why Triscuits are call that, and no, it’s not what you think, it’s so much better!
And finally for today, a look at You Suck at Cooking’s best time-saving hacks:
There were so many things I loved about Mayor Pete (and of course, things I didn’t), but his representation matters so, so much. Here is just one example of it, something I would have never dreamed of seeing growing up.
(Note: I’m still processing the mass shooting in Pittsburgh from this weekend. But we all also need and deserve spaces to put the world behind us and have a bit of normalcy. I’m taking that space.)
Alright, let’s see what we have today. First up, I might have actually linked to this before, but did you know that we have a plan in case we ever find Nessie? Now you do!
If you haven’t seen it already, stop everything you’re doing and watch the new Randy Rainbow song:
Remember all that money Jill Stein raised for a recount, yeah, she’s spending it on her legal defense for her involvement with Russia. Raise your hand if you’re surprised. Nobody? I didn’t think so.
Gay ‘conversion therapy’ is torture. Full stop. And there’s a feature film about it and it looks powerful:
Like I said, short update today, but I’ll be back with more soon. Just a busy week with the start of my training plan and a team meeting for the GAP relay.
Thank you, to Garfunkle and Oates for hitting it out of the park with this song:
This makes me laugh, but it’s what we deal with all the time. A person makes some bigoted remark about how he thinks gay people are going to hell and then gets all upset when the pushback happens. The hypocrisy is staggering.
Let’s talk about gun control. Thankfully, America’s Best Christian, Betty Bowers is here to have the conversation:
In case you forgot, PA state Rep (from north of Pittsburgh, so not my elected official) Daryl Metcalfe is a bigoted, misogynistic,, racist waste of oxygen. He’s also been single handedly holding up the bills that would give me some equal rights in the Commonwealth.
NBC straight-washed the opening ceremony, and it’s a problem. Gus Kenworthy was with Adam Rippon and Shawn White almost the entire time, and never once was the fact that Gus or Adam are gay came up, although both were some of the highest profile athletes of the games.
Also, on a stupid note, Republicans in South Carolina want non-straight marriages to be called ‘parody marriage.’ Because apparently not only are they evil, bigoted, heartless bastards, they’re also children.
But, it’s not all doom and gloom, I promise. As always, children will save us:
I hope everyone is enjoying their post-Thanksgiving turkey comas. Let’s see what we have today. First up, an insane 360-degree water slide.
I’m sure you voted in this last election, and if you live in Allegheny County, you can check out amazing statistics about how everything went (you can drill down to you voting district)
And speaking of voting, need help getting people registered for the so, so important 2018 election? Indivisible has you covered.
And lastly in politics, this amazing song from Randy Rainbow:
And lastly, I just finished it, but here is the trailer for Season 2 of Lady Dynamite. Maria Bamford is one of my favorite comedians, but she is a very acquired taste:
That’s it for today, I’ll be back with more soon as November wraps up, have a great one!
