I asked my 8-year-old who he hopes will win today and he said, “What difference does it make? Entropy will win in the end. The universe will grow cold and dark, but even before then the sun will incinerate the earth as it dies out and ceases to be a main sequence star.”

Adele hurts my ears.

When will we decide it’s time to refuse to wear masks on planes? I’d join a protest on a Spirit flight. Wouldn’t mind a lifetime ban there.

I’m slightly more concerned about people who think freedom is bad or dangerous.

Might be time for everyone to watch Braveheart again.

Even in Florida where masks haven't been required in a long time, most employees (like servers at restaurants) are still masking because their employers make them. I hate it. How do we pressure business owners to stop treating their staff like second class citizens?

This is happening everywhere. It's not as simple as "don't give them your business."

In the end, Djokovic may go down as an even greater champion of freedom than tennis. And that's saying something.

There must be a scientific explanation for this.

When mistakes only go in one direction, they aren't mistakes.

What happened to “transparency builds trust”?

This isn’t a proud moment. It’s shameful, for both the pretender in the pool and the women who went along with it.

The madness will only stop when women finally stand up for themselves and refuse to compete against men.

"There is superficial conflict but deep concord between science and theistic religion, but superficial concord and deep conflict between science and naturalism." — Alvin Plantinga

Freedom is white supremacy.

What's the point of being a teacher if you can't tell white kids they're evil?

Many Americans say they'll continue to mask even after mandates go away

The comedian's job is to make people laugh (or squirm), not to make people who agree with him applaud. If you're preaching for applause or running defense for the powers that be, you're doing it wrong.

Nice. Now the men who transition and dominate all the women won’t have to take a pay cut.

There’s no such thing as a gender neutral voice.

Citing examples of women who sound like men (or vice versa) just reinforces the fact there are no gender neutral voices. You either sound like a man, or you sound like a woman.

It's insane and discriminatory that Google decides what personal attributes you're allowed to feature and be proud of. But it's even crazier that you don't have to actually have those attributes; you merely need to identify as if you do.

Maybe the bombs will cause them to scatter. They really need to spread out if they want to stay safe.

If the most qualified person happens to be a black woman, then that's great. Give her the nod. But merely being a black woman is not a qualification. It's a good thing when people don't enthusiastically treat skin color and gender as being more important than anything else.
