Anybody see these fires down in LA?

Looks pretty awful and the Santa Ana winds are supposed to be picking up tomorrow morning to make things worse before they get better.

 

It's extremely windy in Northern California. Enough recent rain so not immediate danger but with no rain in forecast we could have fires as well.

 

Attorney for January 6 defendant demanded Liz Cheney be arrested and her personal assets seized as restitution for January 6 insurrectionists. He also demanded January 6 insurrectionists be made a protected class like race, religion, sex, national origin so employers can't refuse to hire them.

 

Oh, heck, the way this country is going, employers are going to be fighting to hire them. Probably can get any number of great paying jobs at Meta.

 

Meta went out of its way to add an exception allowing users to call trans people mentally ill.

 

They’re also banning fact-checking.

 

No legal standing. Just expressing hate.

 

I didn’t want to make a thread but did want to say that I’m going to take a mental health break from here; not because here is bad or anything but because I can’t process everything in the world and keep myself sane. I’ll be back. I just gotta be elsewhere for a while.

 

I will miss you. Take care of yourself. Eat chicken soup. Pet a cat.

 

I'll miss you as well. I hope your break helps you feel better.

 

An DeSantis appointed to college board had unsolicited advice for young women, to wit, they should have babies rather than education. Men should work hard to become doctors, lawyers, engineers, but a uterus doesn't need a brain. He added that if all Nobel prizes are won by men, that's a good thing.

May he be haunted by ghosts of Marie Curie, Irene Curie, Rosalind Yallow, Barbara McClintock ...

 

55 year old Texas man arrested for stalking Caitlin Clark, sending explicit and threatening messages, staking out her home. Clark had to change her appearance and daily routine.
Harassment of female athletes is increasingly common as they get more publicly known. During last year's NCAA, many women's social media were bombarded with death and rape threats.

 

Congress passed bill banning trans students from sport. Bill applies to children from age 4. It is enforced through genital examinations, which any "concerned" adult may carry out. That's called protecting girls and women.
And will surely lower the cost of eggs.

 

If any adult examined my grandchildren's genitals, shortly afterwards I guarantee a trauma surgeon would be examining theirs

 

That guy seems very mentally ill.

 

He claimed imaginary relationship. If someone wants to daydream about a relationship with some celeb in their own home, no harm. Stalk and threaten another story.

 

Elon Musk tweeted that an axe murderer was allowed to run around loose in "lawless" San Francisco because they are so "woke" even murderers aren't arrested.
