    I will help.

    Imagine that there was a somewhat popular show.

    The show was supposed to be a vehicle for a kid that would be a big star. He became a big star, as a movie director, not as an actor because of that show.

    The big star that actually came from that show was that Jewish guy that was playing an Italian badass with a golden heart that rode a motorcycle.

    There were several beloved support characters, including the sister of the guy that was supposed to be the star of the show but was not. At some point, when the show became long in the tooth, they brought a support character for support character sister of the guy that was not the big star. I believe that's Chachi, but I am not sure I watched the show that late into it's existence.

    But, I don't think we should ridicule these two for helping mobilize their fan base, because their fan base are all wheelchair bound at these days and if they get them moving, they are clearly doing god's work.

    Murfreesboro, Tennessee, has just banned being gay in public.

    To implement the ordinance, city officials are trying to remove a number of books from public library.

    The ordinance claims it is only about banning sexual activity in public, which is already illegal. But now lists homosexuality as sexual activity by definition. Gays can be on their feet fully clothed and arrested for ... rainbow clothes? Flying pride flag? Holding hands? Saying they are married?

    I just started reading Black AF History, The Unwhitewashed History of America, by Michael Harriot. Lordy Gordy would the snowflakes in the butt crack states be clutching their pearls if they ever discover it on a local book shelf. But then, some people just can't handle the truth.....outstanding (and very informative.....and well researched).....book.

    A right wing appeals court of Bush and Trump appointees overturned what is left of voting rights act by declaring, astonishingly, that private citizens and civil rights groups can't legally challenge denial of voting rights. A recent victory by Native Americans against racist gerrymandering is overturned and other decisions in Alabama and elsewhere are in question. Only the US attorney general may do so. Not NAACP or ACLU or League of United Latin American Citizens, all of whom have spent decades working to ensure voting rights.

    Swastika waving Nazis marched in Madison, Wisconsin. They were repudiated by mayor of Madison and chancellor of University of Wisconsin, located there. By the governor. By Senator Tammy Duckworth. Every Republican office holder, local, state, Senator Ron Johnson, were silent.

    Trump is a bottomless pit. There is never a bottom. He will always go lower. And his cult, and 90% of the Republican party, is eager to jump in.
