:idea: About the controversial 'Z' in recent news ...

Not mentioned in the media is that 'Z' was the mark of the foxy ('zorro') Don Diego Vega*
"who appears out of nowhere to protect them from the corrupt administration". :roll:

Re: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... -Bill.html

"Florida passes controversial 'Don't Say Gay' Bill that restricts speech in public classrooms on sexual orientation
and gender identity after one lawmaker raised concerns that children were being 'trendy' in coming out as gay"

"The bill, which forbids instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade
(8-9 years old) now moves to the desk of Gov Ron DeSantis"

:idea: Seems reasonable, especially considering that human sexuality is very complicated* and, for young children,
is better taught in the home where parental/family influence is greater. After all, a child is not "raised" in a school
(Hillary: "It takes a village!" ... not necessarily related to "The Village People"**). ;)

"assistant principal is fired for reading class of children a book called 'I Need a New Butt'
about a boy who notices a crack in his bottom"

"He also created a GoFundMe page, in which he shares that 'I Need a New Butt'

:scratch: Why a Christmas tree is being advertised in today's Sunday paper
with the lure "Meow-y Christmas!" is mysterious ... but shouting that
"Christ! Más! (commercialism)" is the reason to rename this holiday :!:

("más" means more in Spanish)

:idea: At least, "Christ! Más!" reflects recent decades.
But the world's rapidly deflating economies now suggest
that "Christ! Menos!" will be this year's theme. :roll:

Re: https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.ph ... ired-stuff

"Maybe as a man, I just don't get it. But I HAVE TO ask: What is it about women - or, rather, mothers in particular --
that they accumulate all sorts of EXPIRED food in their cabinets?"

:idea: As an elderly man (and because lotsa expired stuff suggests that it's not being used), such quantity hints
that "something is better than nothing" (a full cabinet looks full - not empty ... and this is comforting!).
Also, expired stuff suggests future cleanup projects (you can't depart until your work is done). ;)

Expired stuff can also forecast future re-gifting to deserving relatives. :lol:

"Dallas is now testing poop to monitor Covid trends"

:scratch: Hmmm ... if Covid exists when poop arrives at this facility,
it's definitely present when that poop begins its flush & float;
therefore sufficient reason to skip any anal instruction

:idea: Most likely, evolution provided "pleasure" (relative to "pain")
to this orifice to encourage frequent elimination of digestion debris,
cell maintenance discards, toxins, etc. from a sewage system :!:

"Large numbers of foreign leftists have been killed ... after posting selfies on Reddit that disclosed their location."

:idea: The reality of today's widespread technology (we're no longer anonymous online) ... and doesn't mention facial recognition software that can find people! In the near future, robots will also be the scouts tasked with this job. LOL (or not): Internet chatter about rogue mRNA vaccines claims that an electronic ID can be injected (nano technology that self assembles), an ID detectable even from a cell phone tower or satellite!

Similar chatter maintains that we're encouraged to keep our smart phones with us at all times because these devices already know where we are at all times! ... especially with 5G. OMG! Any device that connects to the internet now is sufficient identification of its owner (every device must have a unique ID that is registered in the database). ;)

:oops: Oops! "female actor" (instead of "actress")

"Saget crime scene photos that raise more questions than they answer"

"Hotel suite pictures show PADDED headboard and carpeted floor in room where comedian 'fell and fatally banged his head' ... The door to room 962 was latched from the inside and there was no sign of struggle, nothing was damaged and no trace of blood on his sheets or bedding, the report adds. Unusually, the internal door to the adjoining room, 961, was found unlocked but staff established that nobody had been inside it while Saget was there."

:scratch: Maybe ... he accidentally hit his head on something in the room, then the evidence was removed to reduce hotel liability (and that person left through the adjoining room, then locking that room's internal door) ... especially since an internal door is frequently confirmed to be locked by a room's occupant (IMO). However caused, such head injury seems too severe for the person to then be found in bed as if "sleeping it off". :?

Re: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... woman.html
"Supreme Court nominee refuses to define the word 'woman' because she's 'not a biologist'"

:idea: Intriguing argument since a country's supreme court usually depends more on its court precedence - over many decades - for such definition; precedence that includes the beliefs of many justices for many decades! If this court precedence is not acknowledged, then a nominee seems to hint (IMO) that the court's long-precedential definition requires change. :roll:

Incidentally, court precedence includes the beliefs of "female" justices, as historically defined. ;)

Re: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4049281/posts

"Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., cited a decision from another liberal justice, the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who wrote in U.S. v. Virginia that 'supposed inherent differences are no longer accepted as a ground for race or national origin classifications, physical differences between men and women, however, are enduring.' "

:idea: Justice Ginsburg, a woman by traditional definition, confirms that the Court has long-established precedence regarding the definition of 'woman'. We should expect (IMO) a nominee to at least acknowledge this precedence since it should influence the Court's deliberations.
