Physicist, giving a lecture to kids: "... And based upon what we've measured for the celestial horizon, some scientists think the universe has a shape we call the Doughnut Shaped Model"
Daughter, raising her hand: Why didn't you call it the Everything Bagel?

I don't know anything about wrestling, but John Cena seems to get it. This is exactly how a moral person should react to bigoted fans -

@AnarchoNinaWrites Schadenfreude isn't a vice. It's an important calibration tool for a moral compass. And it's fun as hell.
Schadenfreude is my rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens.

I don't think you're overreacting. It's a disaster already. The only unknown at this point is the magnitude and duration. -

Update to this:
They abandoned the project. The assumption is that a federal ban will go into effect by this time next year either through the scotus or a Trump presidency.

@AnarchoNinaAnalyzes
It's a generations-long abandonment of leadership, responsibility, and accountability in America. Future historians will write dissertations arguing about which failure was the inflection point for the decline and fall of the American Empire. Candidates are (in reverse chronological order):
+ Active support of genocide
+ Failure to punish literal coup plotters
+ Failure to impeach Trump (twice)
+ Withdrawal from Paris Climate Accords
+ Illegal invasion of Iraq on known and deliberate lies (unpunished)
+ Regan War crimes (unpunished)
+ Nixon war crimes (unpunished)
+ Nixon regular crimes (unpunished)
+ Decades of war crimes in Latin America (unpunished)
+ Jim Crow
+ Failures of Reconstruction -

I won't. It's still cowardice even if we luck into a 'good' outcome. -
