    The Trudeau government in Canada is sponsoring Drag Summer Camp — a summer camp for children ages 7 to 11 to become drag queens. Absolutely degenerate.

The Canadian cops say that Billboard Chris started this fight:

We're approaching an inflection point where the general public will come to consider cops and the entire "justice" system as part of the criminal element, functioning as a security detail to protect and enable the most predatory, violent and destructive of hooligans. Once that happens, once that line is crossed, things will get very bad very quickly.

And that will be bad news for everyone.  =(

Holy hell - the Canada thing is nothing compared to the Danish video in your same link. By the end, they talk a little girl into wanting it. Where TF is the asteroid?!?

Now I have another reason not to drink Bud.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Got about 2/3 of a 30 case left in the basement refrigerator. Since they already have my money guess I'll go ahead and finish it but I will be buying another brand next time.

I don't care even if it turns out he's faking it. I will not support mental illness.

That is absolutely disgusting. Yet still an honored guest at the White House.

A 26-year-old male, pretending to be a little girl, while promoting Bud Lite.

Seems only fitting.

Quote
Marlene Schiappa, who serves as the secretary of state in charge of the Social and Solidarity Economy in France, made her name by championing legislation to outlaw catcalling and street harassment of women.

Now she’s set to appear in Playboy, the nudie magazine.

She obviously makes Tik-tok videos of herself working out, and yelling at any guys that are nearby.

I thought wokeness killed it, but I wouldn't be surprised if the French edition is a little more, uh, traditional.

Back when the Onion was funny they had this headline "Area woman sick of men staring at her breast implants."

I am regrettably out of date with Playboy, but has there been a trans Playmate?

OK, just as I was about to post this, I Googled it, and the first trans Playmate was back in 2017.  But the first trans model featured in Playboy was back in 1981 and she posed again in 1991.  Huh.

Women: There are no nice men
Also Women:
Quote
Disgraced South Carolina attorney Alex Murdaugh has received a deluge of love letters and offers of friendship from smitten strangers as he languishes in prison for the murders of his wife and son.

"I think I love you," wrote Nicole K. on March 12, according to messages obtained by FitsNews through a public records request. "I think about you all day everyday."

Remember Gorilla Glue Girl?
Well stupid pays

Quote
"If it ain't tight, it ain't right." That used to be "Gorilla Glue Girl" Tessica Brown's motto — before her Feb. 2021 hair disaster went massively viral and turned her head into a rock-hard "helmet." In this episode of "I Survived Internet Infamy," the mom of five from Louisiana opens up about the hair-raising story — and the surprisingly lucrative opportunities that followed, including music, products and a Food Network stint.

"The amount of money that I made throughout this whole ordeal, it was a lot," she said. But not everyone was kind to Brown. "Saturday Night Live," Wendy Williams and Twitter all mocked her mistake. The daycare owner even received a death threat in the mail. Eventually, a plastic surgeon came to the rescue and saved Brown's scalp. "I felt like a kid of Christmas morning with a whole bunch of presents under the tree," she told The Post.

I recall seeing an interview with him later on.  He said they made a lot of money off that, but he now sees people do the same stuff on youtube for free.

Meanwhile in Canada

Quote
A Canadian politician has proposed a law allowing Ontario’s attorney general to criminalize “offensive remarks” within 100 meters of a drag show, including so-called drag queen story hours for children.

If passed, the measure would create a football field-size “2SLGBTQIA+ community safety zone” around drag shows and other LGBT events in Ontario. Anyone who protests within the zone would be subject to a $25,000 fine under the legislation.
Quote
“Any homophobic, transphobic act of intimidation, threat, offensive threats, offensive remarks, protest, disturbance, and distribution of hate propaganda” would be prohibited by law if the bill passes, sponsor Kristyn Wong-Tam said Tuesday in a press conferenc

 “offensive remarks”

I guess it wouldn't help to point out that it's the "drag show" that's offensive.

Meanwhile, in Washington, DC, the Supreme Court declined to become involved in reserving girl's sports for real girls:

Granted, the case may yet reach the Supremes, but I am disappointed.
