@ErinInTheMorn You know, a really funny side of this is that I expect attendance at drag shows to increase dramatically because of the Streisand Effect.

We'll see if I'm right.

serial-rapist cop (london) 

A U.K. "elite" cop was reported nine times but was still allowd to keep raping and otherwise abusing women for 17 years.
David Carrick has now admitted 49 sex-related crimes, out of which 24 rapes.

Something of a summary of the basic developments so far:

@tofugolem Agreed, but they'll never do that. The fox is in control of the hen house, not us.

Why is the prevailing story in the media “the price of eggs is high” and not “record windfall profits from food and oil companies” ??

America’s largest egg producer Cal-Maine reported a record quarterly profit of $198 million

Anti-poverty charity Oxfam is calling for governments to impose windfall taxes on large food companies

THAT’S the story.

@stopgopfox @toxtethogrady They'd "slip up" on purpose because they know they can get away with it without consequences.

@ClaraListensprechen@universeodon.com @Ralph058 @SrRochardBunson @sergio_101 Yeah, so you were definitely doing this when being a female ham was a REALLY BIG DEAL and might trigger all kinds of reactions.

That's changed enormously as you might expect. Anyone under 50 doesn't even blink. And young people don't react at all. The culture has changed, not just ham culture but the whole country.

@ClaraListensprechen@universeodon.com @Ralph058 @SrRochardBunson @sergio_101 Yer famous and an old-timer! I hope you pick up the thread of an illustrious ham career and continue it.

@blairpalese Warren Buffett is old like me and remembers the tax code during the most prosperous period in U.S. history, the 1950s and 60s. He feels todays tax code is ridiculous in that his secretary pays a higher tax rate than he does.

Unfortunately, not all billionaires feel like he does.
