Jim Shooter, the editor-in-chief of Marvel in the 70s and 80s has died. His reign was influential and controversial.
He had an edict that there were to be no gay heroes at all, something John Byrne got around very subtly with Northstar in “Alpha Flight”. He changed the original Dark Phoenix ending so that she would die, he wrote the shitty “Secret Wars” series and created the Marvel New Universe in 1986 which was a big flop. But he also was behind the Claremont X-Men, the Roger Stern Spider-Man, and the Walt Simonson Thor.
He wass also super tall.

In my dream, it was all over the news that he had died in an apartment fire after falling asleep with a lit cigarette in his mouth, and the neighbours on other floors got burned too. Then a different news report came saying he was dead, but this report said it was a shark attack. People were all over the streets crying, the same way they were crying for Liam Payne.
It felt so real. I'm not psychic but I got a bad feeling he's gonna die this year in a freak accident.

Glastonbury Festival organisers said they are "appalled" by comments made by punk duo Bob Vylan that called for "death" to the Israeli military during a performance on Saturday.
Rapper Bobby Vylan led chants of "free, free Palestine" and "death, death to the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]".
The festival said the statements "very much crossed a line", while antisemitism campaigners said they will formally complain to the BBC over its "outrageous decision" to broadcast the act live.
A BBC spokesperson previously said some of the comments were "deeply offensive", adding it had issued a warning on screen about "very strong and discriminatory language". The set will not be available on BBC iPlayer.

Ben "Lucky" Schlappig is a successful airline blogger, writing about airline seats, frequent flyer programs, hotels, etc. He's memorable on DL for his anecdote about once being so "gay famous" that a male flight attendant tried to jerk him off on a red-eye flight. He has an exhaustive knowledge of aviation and air travel programs, and is on the spectrum. It's charming, but also a little offbeat. Reporters who've interacted with Ben have found him polite enough, but socially awkward and maladjusted when talking about anything outside of air travel.
Anywho, a few years ago, he and his trust fund hubby had their first surro-brat, and they named him Miles. This was a cute wink to the world, given Ben's occupation and genuine obsession.
They've now had their second sprog, this one named "Jet." I'm happy that he's happy, but this second name seems a lot less cute than the first one.
So what do we make of this? Both kids have names that directly reference their father's occupation and personal obsession at the time of their birth.

Rozentals says he was suspended from his funded training programme because he makes what have been described as "edgy videos"
Kurt Adams Rozentals, a canoeist who has been training to compete on behalf of Great Britain at the 2028 Olympic Games in canoe slalom, says that his hopes have been dashed thanks to him launching an OnlyFans account.
The 22 year old athlete had previously been part of Paddle UK’s funded training programme for Olympic hopefuls until he was suspended in April.
The organisation have referred to the suspension as an “interim action” which is designed to “safeguard other athletes, staff, and volunteers due to the nature of the allegation”. It has not made clear exactly what the “allegation” against Rozentals is, however its disciplinary policy list does include “offensive use of social media and indecent, offensive or immoral behaviour” as examples of gross misconduct.
The canoeist has said that he only started in the account on January of this year in order to cover the costs of his training, as the £16,000 he received a year on the programme was not enough to pay for his needs.
“At the end of the day, I started this to help with the sport, and it certainly is helping when I’m on the start line, and I’m not having to worry about rent and food on the table. It’s a good feeling,” he said in an interview with Sky News.
In an emotional post on social media last month, Rozentals wrote that he “might lose [his] sports career.” He went on write: “i started making what they now describe “edgy videos”, with the focus to grow a following, because trying to live on the salary PaddleUK pays their athletes is near impossible.”

Actor Debra Messing wrote an Islamophobic comment on her Instagram in reference to New York City Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, claiming that he “celebrated” 9/11.
“I have nothing against Socialism, don’t know where you got that,” Messing, who is known for her role in the sitcom “Will & Grace,” wrote in an Instagram comment replying to a user who called her out for sharing a reel denouncing socialism. “I voted against M because he celebrated 9/11. Let that sink in. I love my country. My reasoning is not Islamophobia. I’ve chosen to live in the most beautifully diverse city in the world. The same people who did 9/11 did Oct. 7. I just don’t want a mayor who sides with terrorists. Oh and he wants to defund the police. And he has no experience. I’ll stop here.”
If elected in November, Mamdani, a democratic socialist and state assemblyman who was born and raised in Uganda before moving to New York City at age 7, would become New York City’s first Muslim mayor. Since his primary win Tuesday, he has faced an influx of Islamophobic threats on social media — some from far-right figures, like Laura Loomer, who wrote on social media that because of his win, New York will face another 9/11.
Messing’s claim that Mamdani, who was 9 years old in September 2001, “celebrated” 9/11 and sides with terrorists seemingly comes from a rap song he wrote in 2017, in which he praised the now-defunct Islamic charity Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development. The five leaders of the group were convicted in 2009 of “providing material support to Hamas,” which the U.S. recognizes as a foreign terrorist organization. A number of human rights organizations in 2022 called for the pardon of the five leaders on the basis that money went to social programs run by Palestinian charities and did not directly fund Hamas.
Mamdani has been critical of Israel’s government, accusing it of committing a genocide in Gaza. His criticism of Israel has led some to call him antisemitic.
“I’ve said at every opportunity that there is no room for antisemitism in this city, in this country,” Mamdani, who also said it “pains” him to be “called an antisemite,” said last week. “I’ve said that because that is something I personally believe.”
Representatives for Messing and Mamdani did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
New York City Comptroller Brad Lander, who is Jewish and ran against Mamdani for Democratic candidate for New York City mayor, wrote on social media that threats against Mamdani are “morally reprehensible.”

She has no ties to the district, and didn't even vote there in the last election, but she swears she can be a breath of fresh air for the district, which she describes as "really, really, really cool." Yes, she used the word three times. Her main argument is that Jan has been around for nearly three decades, and it's time for fresh leadership. Jan may retire this term, and a stack of Illinois Democrats (mayors, state senators, and Beth Jarrett) are likely to run in the primary if she does.

Instead of voting by party, we vote for candidates we like best. Exists in New York and now being considered by 14 states, but there is a problem.
In ranked-choice voting, the candidate who gets the most votes doesn’t automatically win. That’s because if no candidate gets more than 50% of the votes, officials start kicking candidates out of the race and redistributing their second-place votes, then their third-place votes and so on. This complicated process repeats until someone gets a majority of all the votes that remain, even if that means ignoring all your top candidates and choosing, say, your fifth pick.
Which is exactly what happened in New York City in 2021. Eric Adams got the most first-choice votes of any candidate, for mayor, but it took eight rounds of kicking out other candidates before he was finally announced the winner.

Stephen King and director Jack Bender have joined forces again for a new TV thriller "The Institute". Based on King’s best-selling 2019 novel by the same name, Bender said after working together on shows such as crime drama "Mr Mercedes" and sci-fi show "Under the Dome" they were keen to find a new project.
The Institute tells the story of Luke Ellis, a boy who is abducted and wakes up in a mysterious facility called The Institute, where other children with special abilities are held. The series will star Ben Barnes and Mary-Louise Parker, with Joe Freeman as Luke Ellis. "It's a sort of… a slow simmering sort of horrifying thriller rather than a horror," Barnes said.
While the first series covers the book, there are plans to continue. Trailer posted at R1.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — President Donald Trump will visit a new immigration detention center in the Florida Everglades on Tuesday for what’s expected to be the site’s official opening, showcasing what critics are condemning as an inhumane makeshift prison camp and what supporters are embracing as a national model for aggressively ramping up detention and deportation efforts.
Florida officials have raced to erect the compound of heavy-duty tents, trailers and temporary buildings in a matter of days, as part of the state’s muscular efforts to help carry out Trump’s immigration crackdown.
The facility is located at an isolated airfield about 45 miles (72 kilometers) west of downtown Miami and is surrounded by swamps filled with mosquitoes, pythons and alligators. Dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” by state officials, supporters say the reference to the notorious federal prison and the harshness of the conditions at the facility are meant to be a deterrent.

But her daughter, Sarah 60, who is recognized for her staid temperament (and artistic ability) looks very, very worn. I thought she was so lovely at her wedding. She has different priorities than others, but it's jarring to see her this way.

Nearly half (48%) of Americans haven’t heard anything about the ‘Big, Beautiful Bill.’ Even among the 52% who report hearing anything, a significant number – 40% – only mention generalities or its status in Congress. Nearly two dozen policy impacts of the bill are raised by the rest of the survey respondents. These range from perceived positive economic benefits, like tax cuts, to negative impacts on government programs like SNAP and Social Security. More respondents have heard specifically about cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and health care generally than any other aspect of the legislation. And yet, only 8% of all Americans name Medicaid cuts as a detail of the bill they have heard about.

I wish this song was a hit in the states back then! My young gay ass would have been blasting this in the late 80s!!! So much fun! I discovered it this week while watching “Baila Como Puedas”. Jaime Astrain danced to this song this week. What a bop! I had to look it up and read the history of Sabrina, who is also on the show.
Sabrina was a teenage Italian primetime soap actress and model who starred in the primetime soap “ Premiatissima” in 1984 at 16 years old. She was then recruited by a music producer at 18 and released her debut single in 1986, which became a Top 20 hit in her native country of Italy but not much of a hit outside of there. The success in Italy led them to sign her to do an album and her debut album came out a year later, in 1987. She was made to sing in English so that her music had potential to breakout throughout all of Europe and even globally and not be limited to Italy and Spanish speaking countries.
The lead single for her debut album (not counting the song that came out a year prior) “Boys (Summertime Love)” would catapult her to fame throughout Europe, with the song being a Top 5 hit in over 10 countries and a #1 hit in Switzerland and France and #3 in the UK. Her debut album would go on to be a huge smash throughout Europe and the video to Boys would solidify her as a sex symbol and make her super popular with teens, especially teenage boys, who plastered her posters all over their walls and her provocative music video a huge hit.
While “Boys” was her biggest hit overall, her song “My Chico” off her sophomore album would be her biggest hit in her home country of Italy.
She continued singing her English pop songs for a few years until 1991, before clashing with her management and label over her wanting more independence and to drop the sexy glamour image she was doing since a teenager. These clashes led to her barely promoting her third album and it flopping along with its singles, and her finally being able to get out of her contract with the label. She took a few years off before releasing a few independent singles in 1994 and 1995 and went back into acting in Italian soaps as well as hosting a couple of shows. She then started her own record label and reinvented herself as a more mature artist and making Italian-sung music, like she wanted to do but her label wouldn’t allow, and now was no longer just Sabrina, but Sabrina Salerno. She has since done numerous hosting jobs, films and tv shows as well as some music, including a re-recording of her smash Boys.

I asked an AI bot to help identify the relationships between subjects in an early 20th century European painting; giving it the painting’s name. It confidently responded: saying the work was by John Singer Sargent and providing a detailed description and subject discussion.
The answer surprised me because I was looking at a different work by a different artist in the Uffizi Gallery. Asked the bot for a picture of the Sargent work it had so fully described. After a longish pause it gave a tiny, fuzzy image.
I pressed for something clearer. It instead tried to change the subject by showing me other Sargent works.
When I again insisted on a better image of its initially described painting, it finally produced a somewhat clearer copy of the piece. The described people were barely visible brushstrokes. AND, the now visible name of the piece was Not the name I’d originally asked it to examine.
Further questioning was useless. It kept trying to deflect me to other works by Sargent and different artists.
SO, it obviously had made up what it initially told me. And it was determined to hide the fact that it had lied.

The Justice Department is aggressively prioritizing efforts to strip some Americans of their U.S. citizenship.
Department leadership is directing its attorneys to prioritize denaturalization in cases involving naturalized citizens who commit certain crimes — and giving district attorneys wider discretion on when to pursue this tactic, according to a June 11 memo published online. The move is aimed at U.S. citizens who were not born in the country; according to data from 2023, close to 25 million immigrants were naturalized citizens.
At least one person has already been denaturalized in recent weeks. On June 13, a judge ordered the revocation of the citizenship of Elliott Duke, who uses they/them pronouns. Duke is an American military veteran originally from the U.K. who was convicted for distributing child sexual abuse material — something they later admitted they were doing prior to becoming a U.S. citizen.

Mary feels INVISIBLE!
As a gay man who recently turned 60, I’m pretty sure my life is over. Yes, it’s possible that the graying temples, eye wrinkles and extra padding – which has extinguished my dream of ever having discernible abs – have also ushered in a new era of melodrama.
Even so, the virtual invisibility with which I can currently walk through a gay gym or neighborhood is a new experience, and it feels like a forced retirement.
Last week, as I slathered myself with anti-wrinkle cream, I examined my body expecting to find a tattooed expiration date announcing that I’d joined the club of older gay men who have small dinner parties, where they recount their glory days and complain about the current generation of their counterparts who fail to give them the respect they deserve.
Much of what I’m about to say cuts against everything I was taught and mostly believe that the substance of a person is all that is important – so I expect to regret this column, but am compelled to write it nonetheless.
I was never an “A-gay” – a hotness equivalent of the universal blood type. But I had a particular niche of mutual attraction and, at the risk of sounding like I lack all humility, I miss the attention at the gym, the free drinks at the bars and the extra chicken wing I used to find in my greasy carryout bag when I got home.
Now that I’ve stepped in it, please indulge me the wallow: Many gay men place a premium on physical beauty. Of course, all people feel anxiety about their bodies, but even a 2016 study found gay men are more likely than heterosexual men to report feeling pressure to look attractive.

The Senate Republican tax bill speeding to passage includes the biggest reduction of funding for the federal safety net since at least the 1990s, targeting more than $1 trillion in social spending.
Although the legislation is still estimated to cost more than $3 trillion over the next decade, the Senate GOP tax bill partially pays for its large price tag by slashing spending on Medicaid and food stamps, which congressional Republicans maintain are rife with fraud.
The tax bill centers on making permanent large tax cuts for individual taxpayers, but it offsets these expensive tax cuts in part through what several experts said may prove to be the most dramatic reductions in safety net spending in modern U.S. history.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — The eldest son of Norway’s Crown Princess Mette-Marit has been arrested again, this time on suspicion of rape, police said Tuesday.
Marius Borg Høiby is the stepson of the heir to the Norwegian throne, Crown Prince Haakon, and the son of Mette-Marit from a previous relationship. He has no royal title or official duties.
Borg Høiby was arrested late Monday in Oslo on a preliminary charge of having had “sexual intercourse with someone who is unconscious or for other reasons unable to resist the act.” A preliminary charge comes before a formal charge and allows authorities to detain suspects during an investigation.
Police did not say when the alleged rape occurred, but only that “the victim must have been unable to resist the act.” Norwegian media said Borg Høiby denied the accusation.
Hege Salomon, the lawyer for the woman who was allegedly raped, said “she is having a hard time.” She told Norwegian broadcaster NRK that police, not the woman, had brought the case. The woman was not identified.
The royal palace had no comment, the news agency NTB said.
On Aug. 4, police officers responded to a disturbance in downtown Oslo and briefly detained Borg Høiby. He faced preliminary charges of bodily harm and criminal damage and was released. Details were unclear but police said there was “a relationship between the suspect and the victim.”
More preliminary charges have since been filed against Borg Høiby, including violating several restraining orders and driving without a valid driver’s license. In all, the cases involve four women and one man.
The case was top news in Norway, where the royals are popular.
Borg Høiby, 27, lives with the royal couple and their two children, Princess Ingrid Alexandra and Prince Sverre Magnus.
Norway’s future queen made headlines in 2001 when she married Haakon because she was a single mother who had lived a freewheeling life with a companion who had been convicted on drug charges.

The Reagan-appointed judge ordered the NIH to restore funds for research related to racial minorities and LGBTQ+ people.
A federal judge appointed by Ronald Reagan on Monday accused the Trump administration of “appalling” and “palpably clear” discrimination against racial minorities and LGBTQ+ Americans.
“I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable. I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this,” said U.S. District Judge William Young, a Massachusetts-based jurist who took the bench in 1985. Young’s sweeping rebuke during a court hearing was a reference to two executive orders signed by President Donald Trump that led the National Institutes of Health to rescind funding for research related to racial minorities and LGBTQ+ people. Though Young said he was uncertain whether he had the power to block the executive orders themselves, he declared the NIH cuts Monday to be “illegal” and “void,” and he ordered the NIH to immediately restore the research funds. An appeal is likely. “I am hesitant to draw this conclusion — but I have an unflinching obligation to draw it — that this represents racial discrimination and discrimination against America’s LGBTQ community,” the judge said. “That’s what this is. I would be blind not to call it out.

This dour indie cult classic stars Matt Dillon as a scummy drug addict in 1971 Portland, Oregon. Criterion put it out on 4K recently and I just revisited it for the first time in years. It is a great movie—maybe Van Sant's best, and I'm not really a fan of his in general. It had always been a curio for me as it was filmed and set in my hometown. It has a great cast, with Kelly Lynch playing Damon's wife, along with James LeGros, Heather Graham, James Remar, Max Perlich, and Grace Zabriskie. The legendary William S. Burroughs also makes a minor appearance as a priest. Dillon is beyond sexy in it. Were/are you a fan?

Henry Golding seemingly confirmed rumors of an on-set feud between his Another Simple Favor co-stars Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick.
During his and Charlize Theron‘s appearance on the June 26 episode of Watch What Happens Live, host Andy Cohen enlisted them in a game of “1, 2, Agree or Disagree.” Things got shady when Cohen asked whether there’s “usually at least a little bit of truth” behind rumors that two co-stars are clashing on-set — and both actors held up their “agree” signs.
Golding laughed, before coyly adding, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

There are multiple talk-show hosts who successfully sold themselves as super-nice and cheerful, and when it was revealed they were not really that way in their personal lives, fans turned on them almost completely: James Corden, Rosie O'Donnell, Ellen Degeneres. They all are very wealthy now, but they no longer get very good gigs (no, guest-starring on "AJLT" is not an impressive gig).
Should Jimmy Fallon, Drew Barrymore, and Kelly Clarkson be scared, or are they actually nice enough in real life it won't ever affect them? Most of the other successful hosts (Jon Stewart, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar) don't pretend to be overwhelmingly nice.

About 2-1/2 hours ago I went out to the front yard to call my three indoor/outdoor cats in for dinner. I called names, and thought I saw my black cat running from across the street, but when I opened the gate in rushed a black puppy instead, his ENTIRE body one big wag. My neighbor's fiance was doing yard work across the street at her house. He saw me and was spitting nails, saying "These two guys just pulled up in front of me, opened the door and THREW that puppy out, looking dead in my face and smirking the whole time!"
I scooped Puppy up, and he immediately snuggled into my neck. Took him inside to a spare room, sat on a sofa with him on my lap. Suuuucch a good little one. Three of the cats are curious-to-indifferent; one just stalks off when Puppy approaches; the last is LIVID.
My question: is it okay to put Pup on the front porch for the night? I don't want nighttime animal drama, plus I don't know Pup's health status. I have several cat beds s/he'd fit, and while I don't have dog food, I have plenty of high-quality cat kibble Pup already seems to love. Of course I have water bowls. Pup would be 1000% safe as long as s/he stays inside the yard, inside the fence line.
Pup is sweet as pie and good as gold. Except he keeps trying to gnaw on my phone charger cable, which is easy to put out of his reach. But I'll give him some cat toys to keep him entertained.
Tomorrow I'll deal with which no-kill shelter to take him to. He really is a big-little ball of total sweetness. Plus his little snuffling noises sound like Snoopy.

They wanted $6 million EACH — Jeff said, ‘Put on a playlist.’”
Leave it to Jeff Bezos to throw a $50 million wedding… and still say no to Gaga.
Insiders tell #ShuterScoop that the Amazon founder and his bride Lauren Sánchez went all out for their star-studded Venetian nuptials — but drew the line at one jaw-dropping price tag: $12 million for wedding singers.
“Elton John and Lady Gaga were both approached,” spills one source. “Each wanted $6 million for a single night. Jeff said, ‘Absolutely not.’”
Instead of shelling out the cost of a small moon landing, Bezos tapped DJ Cassidy to spin at the afterparty, held in a historic fortress only
accessible by boat. “The vibe was still luxe,” one guest shrugs. “But everyone was waiting for Gaga to emerge from a gondola or Elton to descend from the sky in Swarovski.”
Instead? Guests danced to ‘Just Dance’ — courtesy of Spotify.
Still, the bride sparkled in her second Dolce & Gabbana gown, and guests toasted into the night with free-flowing champagne. “The couple were the show,” a guest admitted. “But let’s be real — some of us came for Gaga.”
One source summed it up best: “It was the wedding of the year — but don’t expect Beyoncé prices from a man who built his fortune on free shipping.”

Lovers of French patisserie and deliciously dark period dramas rejoice, for Carême is promising to be the series of the summer. The Apple TV+ series starring Benjamin Voisin will chart the impressive rise and era-defining fame of Marie-Antoine Carême, known as Antonin. The first cook (allegedly) to become rich and famous writing and publishing cookbooks, Carême made himself synonymous with the largesse of the First Empire as the chef de cuisine to the royal houses of Europe. He rose from humble beginnings to culinary stardom in a heady and volatile, post-French revolution Europe.
For those partial to a bit of War and Peace – or any sweeping European historical epic brimming with royalty, rolling vistas flecked with follies, and the softly pornographic image of a tousle-haired, free-spirited youth, (ahem - Leo in Titanic, Lady Chatterley’s’ Lover…the list goes on) - then cancel your bank holiday plans and settle in.

The LGBTQ community is often asked, “Do you need to celebrate Pride anymore with big parades?”
No one ever asks Veterans, Italians, and Irish whether they need to have their big Pride parades.
That said, in NYC, the Pride Parade brings out such a diverse group of LGBTQ community members and supporters that it’s a sight to behold. We are not just a group of great looking, muscle-bound white men as the media portrays us—we are from all walks of life, all races, shapes and sizes. Importantly, there’s political power in numbers.
Keeping visible to our families, friends, and neighbors must continue to be a priority for LGBTQ. The right’s maneuvers to strips our rights depend on our being quiet and embarrassed about ourselves.

Article is from 2024 - The book Unhumans, by Jack Posobiec and Joshua Lisec, is a fascist manifesto. It argues that the “Great Men of History” should take their cues from homicidal dictators like Augusto Pinochet and Francisco Franco, reject reason and democracy, and ruthlessly annihilate the gangs of communist “unhumans” who are currently threatening to destroy the United States. It explicitly advocates “eye for an eye” justice, promising a new McCarthyism complete with blacklists, along with the immediate banning of all teachers’ unions. It is perhaps the most paranoid, hateful, and terrifying book I have ever picked up. (I say this as someone who has read Mein Kampf.) And it comes with a warm and supportive blurb from Ohio senator J.D. Vance, who is currently the Republican party’s vice presidential nominee. Vance had this to say of Unhumans:
"In the past, communists marched in the streets waving red flags. Today, they march through HR [Human Resources], college campuses, and courtrooms to wage lawfare against good, honest people. In Unhumans, Jack Posobiec and Joshua Lisec reveal their plans and show us what to do to fight back."
Unhumans is both a manifesto and a guide for action. Its central argument, which I will state as dispassionately as possible, is that leftists are not fellow human beings who should be accepted as part of a pluralistic society, but rather “unhumans” bent on destroying the civilized order. Citing the usual parade of 20th century communist dictators (Mao, Lenin, Stalin, Pol Pot), Posobiec and Lisec argue that even if it may not look like the contemporary United States is under threat from a communist revolution, we are under threat, besieged by furtive, scheming unhumans who must be rooted out before they can consummate their fiendish plot to commit mass murder. Stopping the unhumans will require shedding commitments to democracy, free speech, reasoned debate, and tolerance of alternate points of view. Instead, they argue, the right should find its role models in Caesar, Joseph McCarthy, and various murderous anti-communist dictators of the 20th century.
Like I say, I’ve tried to put this fairly dispassionately. But it’s incredibly disturbing, and argued very seriously in the book, which repeatedly praises Spanish dictator Francisco Franco—who, let us remember, was responsible for “mass killings, torture and the systematic, general and illegal detentions of political opponents.” Franco’s White Terror killed hundreds of thousands of people, based on Franco’s notion of “social cleansing,” and “turned the country into an immense prison.” How do Posobiec and Lisec rationalize their praise of dictators? Essentially, they argue that to stop communism, ugly means are required. They advocate what they call “the Iron Law of Exact Reciprocity,” which means, essentially, do unto others what they have done unto you, no matter how horrible...

In a December 2024 survey of 1,000 employers by Intelligent.com, 12.5% said a Gen Z candidate had brought Mom or Dad to a job interview. The bosses are fed up. In the Bay Area, the culture clash has led employers to a new solution: hiring etiquette experts to train young employees in basic workplace manners. Rosalinda Randall, a Marin-based etiquette coach, said inquiries have risen 50% over the last two months. The requests come from tech campus managers, winery execs, and even country clubs. All are a variation on the same complaint: Gen Z employees are treating the office like an extension of their homes.
One supervisor told Randall a new hire repeatedly left food wrappers scattered on the communal lunch table, assuming janitors would clean it up. “Their manager didn’t know how to handle it, as they didn’t want to sound like a parent,” said Randall…
… The friction isn’t limited to corporate offices. Hospital managers have told Randall that newly hired nurses are showing signs of apathy and entitlement, that they bristle at overly chatty patients or try to shirk “dirty” tasks. “They demand to be released from bedpan duty,” she said. “They don’t like it, so they think they shouldn’t have to do it.”

I wasn't familiar with Jesse Adams, a prolific straight porn star from the "Golden Age" of X-rated movies, but reading this interview about his life and his death made me sad. What an awful, traumatic life this man had, and the way he died should simply not happen in this day and age.
I'm always amazed at how The Rialto Report tracks down these forgotten performers and how they tell the stories of their often difficult lives.

38 years ago, on June 27, 1987, pop singer Whitney Houston made pop music history. The songstress became the very first female recording artist to debut at the #1 position on the Billboard Hot 200 Albums Chart, where it would sit for 11 weeks. It was the fifth album in history to debut at the top of the Hot 200 Albums Chart.On that same day, her first single off the album - 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' - also topped the Hot 100 Singles Chart, where it would stay for 2 weeks.
Though the album, and the singles released off the album, were a hit with fans, critics were less than favorable with their reviews. The New York Times criticized Houston for 'playing it safe' and using the same formula (and three producers) from her debut album in 1985. Rolling Stone found the same faults with the album, saying her record label didn't give her a chance to expand and grow from her debut. The LA Times echoed what the previous two said.
After her death in 2012, the album entered the Hot 200 again, this time peaking at #87 (25 years after its release). In the US, the album has received 'Diamond' certification - selling more than 10M units.

Dozens of writers have been arrested in China this year for publishing gay erotica online as law enforcement's crackdown on pornography increasingly targets LGBTQ+ stories.
Police have arrested as many as 50 writers in Gansu in the past several weeks, according to The New York Times, which spoke with two lawyers representing detained authors who said they knew of at least six other cases. Other attorneys told the BBC that at least 30 writers, nearly all of them women in their 20s, have been arrested across the country since February.
Many of the writers were arrested after publishing on the Taiwan-based adult fiction website Haitang Literature, which allows authors to earn money through tips and subscriptions. One of the most popular genres on the website is "danmei" — romantic and sexual relationships between men.

The countries say they are "speaking and acting as one to champion the rights of LGBTQI people"
Foreign ministries from Canada, Australia, Brazil, Columbia and several European countries including Spain, Belgium and Ireland, issued a joint statement in support of LGBTQIA+ rights on Saturday (June 28).
The United States was notably absent from the letter, which was released on International Pride Day.
Attitude has approached the Foreign Office for clarity over the UK’s absence from the letter, but it is worth noting that many key Pride events take place after June, including Pride In London due on 4 July and Brighton Pride from 2-3 August.
The statement condemned violence, criminalisation, stigmatisation and discrimination against LGBTQI+ people, calling them clear violations of human rights.
“We reject all forms of violence, criminalisation, stigmatisation or discrimination” The statement said the countries “are speaking and acting as one to champion the rights of LGBTQI people, at a time when hate speech and hate crimes are on the rise, and in view of efforts to strip LGBTQI people of their rights, we reject all forms of violence, criminalisation, stigmatisation or discrimination, which constitute human rights violations.”
Since Donald Trump was re-elected for his second term in office, the US have banned transgender people from military service, shut down a government-backed LGBTQ+ youth suicide prevention hotline and issued an executive order that the US would only recognise two sexes – male and female.
The statement was released the same day as Budapest’s 30th Pride march, where there were an estimated 200,000 people who defied the governments ban on the city’s LGBTQ+ celebration.

"We're working on the script, and it's really getting good," teases Lowe, who starred as William "Billy" Hicks, a saxophone-playing frat boy, in the movie.
"I think it's super valid to revisit those characters that continue to mean a lot to people and watch them navigate this chapter of life, because arguably this chapter of life is every bit as interesting and fraught as — 'What do I do when I get out of college?' " continues the star.

He is afraid that his appreciation for Asian men will be taken the wrong way. What should I do to play matchmaker? I really want to see him be happy after many years of loneliness. He struck me as gay and asexual for so long. He is successful and good-looking and does not want some twink. Ultimately, he is shy and unappreciated. He deserves someone special.

There is no single figure in television history whose longevity and influence match Barbara Walters’.
She became a star on NBC’s “Today” in the early 1960s, raising the stature of the morning franchise. She opened doors for women as a network anchor and turned newsmaker interviews into major television events — 74 million tuned into her 1999 sit-down with Monica Lewinsky. She created one of daytime TV’s longest-running hits with “The View,” which evolved into a major forum for the country’s political discourse.
“The audience size that Barbara was able to capture and harness is unmatched in today’s world,” said Jackie Jesko, director of the new documentary “Barbara Walters: Tell Me Everything,” debuting Monday on Hulu after its premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this month. “Everything she did sort of made a difference.”
Jesko’s feature — produced by Brian Grazer and Ron Howard’s Imagine Documentaries and ABC News Studios — is the first in-depth look into Walters’ storied career. The film also serves as a sweeping historical review of the decades-long dominance of network news that made figures such as Walters a gatekeeper of the culture, as Jesko describes her.
Before the advent of social media and podcasts that allowed celebrities to control their messages, going through the X-ray machine of a Barbara Walters interview delivered exposure on a massive scale. David Sloan, a longtime ABC News producer who worked with Walters, recalls how the screen images of her specials flickered through the windows of Manhattan apartment towers.
“Tell Me Everything” came together not long after Walters died at the age of 93 in 2022. Sara Bernstein, president of Imagine Documentaries, approached Betsy West, executive producer and co-director of the Julia Child documentary “Julia,” about taking on a Walters project. Sloan, who oversaw an Emmy-winning tribute after Walters’ death, also wanted a deeper exploration into the impact of her career. West, also a former Walters colleague, and Sloan became executive producers on the film. “Tell Me Everything” taps deeply into the ABC News archives, which contain thousands of hours of interviews Walters conducted over her 40 years at the network.

"Australian Survivor has seen some of the most epic blindsides over the last 10 years, but this one might just be the craziest of them all… because it happened to me. I received a call from the network thanking me for all my hard work and dedication to the show but for next season they are ‘going in a different direction’."
LaPaglia shared that Channel 10's reasons for letting him go included declining ratings and a desire to "do something drastic to shake things up. None of that non-elim bulls--t tonight! Someone IS going home. And with no idol in my back pocket, that someone is me."

The most expensive one has preloaded detergent so you don't need to worry about taking a tablet from the cupboard and popping in into the machine (20 seconds?) and the machine opens itself when it's finished to help with the drying. And it connects to wifi so you can turn it on without having to be in the kitchen.

I’ve been ignored my whole life—from grade school all the way through to adulthood.
I’m the one kid in the class who didn’t get a valentine card from any other kid in school. The teacher would quickly write one so I’d get at least one. Wow, that still saddens me.
It’s never gotten better. People even ignore me when I’m right in front of them (oh, the stories I can tell).
I assumed it was the wall I put up when I was in the closet so no one would discover my sexuality.
When I came out of the closet, however, nothing got better. Gay guys ignore me too.
I’ve wracked my brain trying to figure out why. Was it my looks? My attitude? Maybe I smell weird. Maybe I’m just exceedingly average. The ignoring does seem to occur in diverse situations so it’s something I’m doing or some vibe I’m giving out.
I tried dressing better, hanging out in gay spaces. It’s not like I’m a quiet, introvert—I’m a fun, extrovert (I think). While I have friends, I usually have to be the one who has to arrange and call to get together with friends.
I’ve coped by aiming for excellence at work (so colleagues are forced to see me) and being as kind as I can be to others because I’ve experienced how unkind people make me feel.
I am happy that, as I’m getting older (now, in my late 30’s), I’m caring less and less. Every now and again, I get thrown right back into it.
Today, I walked around in Manhattan. It’s Pride Month and there are gays everywhere. I didn’t even get one acknowledgment that I existed. Lots of people glancing and then looking away.
I want desperately not to care. Thankfully, I have a dog who seems to love me.

Has anyone seen this film? I have never heard of it and it doesn't seem to be very well known. The Criterion Collection put it out somewhat recently and I came across it while perusing their titles as they're having their 50% off sale now at Barnes & Noble. I've always thought Carradine was sexy as hell and some of the reviews I've read on it describe it as a kind of neon-bathed odyssey through late-night Los Angeles in the '80s. Is it any good?

Went to a showing last night with decent expectations but was thoroughly impressed by the film which repeatedly surprised me by going places I never expecting the movie- or any zombie-derivative genre movie- to go.
The acting was fantastic, the cinematography gorgeous and the story telling fresh and unpredictable. Great moments of tension anchored by an extremely strong emotional core that at moments felt like Spielberg at his absolute best. I cried at the end.

Employment judge George Alliott says term, typically targeted at middle-aged white women, is pejorative
Calling someone a “Karen” is “borderline racist, sexist and ageist”, a tribunal judge has said.
Employment judge George Alliott said the term, typically targeted at middle-aged white women, was pejorative.
The remarks came in the case of Sylvia Constance, 74, who had brought claims of unfair dismissal, direct race and age discrimination and victimisation against Harpenden Mencap, a charity that provides support to adults with learning disabilities.
Constance, who the tribunal heard is black British, said she was targeted because of her race, having been dismissed on 13 June 2023 because of an “irrevocable breakdown in the relationship” with Mencap.
Bosses had previously suspended Constance over claims of “emotional/psychological abuse of a tenant in your care” and “bullying and intimidation of colleagues”, the tribunal heard.
Christine Yates, who represented Constance at the tribunal, said in a document: “The respondents have acted like the stereotypical ‘Karen’, having weaponised their privilege and more powerful position against the complainant, making up and suspending the complainant for numerous fictitious infringements, and deflecting from their personal misconduct.
“As egregiously, they encouraged residents under their care to do same. There is also something very sordid about the way in which white, female management have facilitated racism by colluding with white, male residents to give a misogynistic, racist view of the black complainant.”
But Alliott said: “We note Christine Yates uses the slang term ‘Karen’, which is a pejorative and borderline racist, sexist and ageist term.”
The judge dismissed Constance’s claims, saying that the complaints against her were “legitimate” and “did not constitute a targeted racist campaign against her”.

As millions gather on Sunday for America’s largest Pride parade, the L.G.B.T.Q. community is increasingly concerned about the pushback against transgender people.
Millions of people will gather on Sunday for the New York City Pride March, packing the streets of Manhattan for a celebration amid the most hostile political environment for L.G.B.T.Q. Americans in decades.
The march commemorates the 1969 Stonewall riots, which are widely seen as giving rise to the modern L.G.B.T.Q. rights movement. That effort, over many years, has increased public support for L.G.B.T.Q. people, but the movement has begun to falter badly in the face of opposition from the Supreme Court, the Trump administration and even some Democrats.
Pride celebrations have always been equal parts party and protest, and those who planned to march on Sunday said that filling the streets with rainbow flags and colorful floats was now more important than ever as the rights of L.G.B.T.Q. people come under increasing attack.
Stacy Lentz, an owner of the Stonewall Inn, where the 1969 riots took place, and the chief executive of an affiliated nonprofit, said she thought L.G.B.T.Q. people and their supporters needed “to get back to the roots of Pride and what happened at Stonewall because our rights are under attack in a way we haven’t been in decades.”
“I have had young folks ask me, ‘What do you think it was like back then? How do you think people felt to be fighting for their rights?’” she said. “I tell them we’ve never been closer to that time then we are right now. We all need to pick up the torch.”

Allegations claiming that Lear was a drag queen or intersex were circulating from the beginning of her modelling and singing careers.[29][30] Her alleged transgender background has been commented by Salvador Dalí himself,[31] and upon in the media and in the biographies of those who knew Lear earlier in her life, including Dalí,[32][33] with Dali's biographer Ian Gibson's devoting an entire chapter to her.[21]
April Ashley, a transgender entertainer and model, has claimed that in the 1950s and early 1960s, Lear, whose birth name she stated was "Alain Tap,"[34] and she were working together in the Parisian transvestite revues Madame Arthur and Le Carrousel. In her book April Ashley's Odyssey, Ashley recalls Lear performing drag acts under the stage name "Peki d'Oslo".[35] Similar facts have been reported by Romy Haag, a transgender artist living in Germany, who ran the popular nightclub Chez Romy in Berlin and knew Amanda,[36] and Bibiana Fernández, a Spanish transgender actress and singer.[37]
Some sources insinuate that Dalí sponsored Lear's sex reassignment surgery in Casablanca in 1963, carried out by Doctor Georges Burou,[38] and also that Dalí invented the stage name for her, a pun of the Catalan language "L'Amant de Dalí" (Dalí's lover).
In 1978, she posed nude for Playboy.[39]
Despite Lear contradicting transgender rumours on numerous occasions and explaining they were part of a strategy to draw public attention,[40] the rumours continued to persist. She had denied them from the beginning of her singing career, in 1976, stating that it was "a crazy idea from some journalist"[28] and later claiming that it was Salvador Dalí or even herself who'd started the rumour.[41][42] She addressed the allegations in an ironic and provocative way in her songs "Fabulous (Lover, Love Me)" and "I'm a Mistery" (deliberately misspelled as to reference the word "mister"). Despite some sources claiming her transgender background is an open secret, she has always flatly denied it, even when confronted by Ian Gibson during a TV show.[43]
However, French,[44][29] British[45][46][47] and Italian[48][49] newspapers and magazines in the 1960s and 1970s and more recently in 2008,[50] with an excerpt surfaced online in 2011[51] and in 2016 in an article in La Stampa,[34] included passport details and a reproduction of a copy of Lear's birth certificate, which states that she was born Alain Maurice Louis René Tap on 18 June 1939 in Saigon, and a picture of Lear before her supposed transition.
Lear allegedly grew up in the South of France and in Switzerland, or between London and Paris,[19] or in Nice.[52][53] Raised speaking French and English, she learned German, Spanish and Italian in her teens, and would use multilingualism in her professional life.
The Guardian, on 24 December 2000, summarized the information relating to this aspect of Lear's life as follows:[17]
Lear's background remains a mystery. She has variously let it be known that her mother was English or French or Vietnamese or Chinese, and that her father was English, Russian, French or Indonesian. She may have been born in Hanoi in 1939, or Hong Kong in either 1941 or 1946. Once she said she was from Transylvania. And to this day, it is a matter of conjecture as to whether she was born a boy or a girl.

"Cardellini’s Pamela is believed to be a mother who had given up a singing career to raise a special needs child and takes a dark turn when she loses her son."
Crystal Lake will be centered around Linda Cardellini’s maternal figure, and the reign of terror she visits upon Camp Crystal Lake in the wake of her son’s wrongful death. So much like Bates Motel did for Psycho before it, the backstory before the real bloodletting is going to shape what we see.

Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch on Saturday doubled down in her criticism of the Pride March organizer’s decision to ban the NYPD’s Gay Officers Action League from participating in the annual event in New York City.
In a strongly worded letter to the event’s organizer, Heritage of Pride, calling the group hypocrites, Tisch demanded that it change its stance on the officers’ exclusion from the celebratory procession. The top cop slammed the new reason given for not letting the gay officers march — namely, that it would violate the event’s no-weapons policy — calling it a “PR stunt” and “Not a solution.”
“It is also the height of hypocrisy to request the security and protection of thousands of armed, uniformed police officers for The March on Sunday and then ban from that event the very officers that proudly represent your community,” Tisch said in the letter.
“In a year when LGBTQ+ rights are under siege in ways we had thought were behind us, this is the time to stand together, not to splinter,” Tisch added. “In that light, I urge you to reconsider your decision here. Regardless of the ultimate outcome.” Heritage of Pride, about two weeks ago, informed the NYPD, including the Gay Officers Action League, or GOAL, that it was continuing its ban for the fourth straight year against allowing police officers to march.
“Though the NYPD remains a partner in monitoring and addressing security threats, the NYPD response is to be called upon only when absolutely necessary,” an internal memo from Heritage of Pride states. “Additionally, the guidelines for our March were updated to clarify that no participating contingent could march with weapons.” Tisch on Friday said she was shocked by the decision, given earlier dialogue she and Det. Brian Downey, GOAL’s president, had had with Heritage of Pride officials.
HOP spokesman Chris Piedmont stressed that the organization has a no-weapons policy, to which GOAL would not agree. However, NYPD officers are required to have their service weapons on them while they are in uniform “as a matter of public and personal safety,” according to Tisch’s letter.
“To be clear,” Piedmont told the Daily News on Friday, “GOAL is welcome to march without weapons like every other contingent and we welcome them to join us as we march to protect trans youth, advocate for full equality and stand in proud defiance of the attacks our community is facing.”
The March starts at 11 a.m. Sunday and runs 1.8 miles, from Fifth Ave. and 25th St. down to Eighth St., then back up to Seventh Ave. and W. 14th St.

One of the accused students, a girl, was allegedly in a "relationship" with the victim who had cheated on her, according to the Surprise Police Department.
A group of fifth-grade students were arrested last fall over an alleged plot to murder a fellow student after being overheard discussing their plans, according to a newly released police report.
Four students at the Legacy Traditional School in Surprise, Arizona, were accused of planning to fatally stab a fellow fifth grade student and forge a suicide note to make it appear self-inflicted, according to the police report. A parent alerted the school of the plot on Oct. 1, 2024, after their child overheard the group talking about it.
The students and their parents were instructed to come back to the school the following morning for the school's investigation, per the report.
Through the investigation, it was found that one of the accused students, a girl, was allegedly in a "relationship" with the victim, a boy, who had cheated on her, according to the report. The girl hated him and wanted him dead, the report said.
During a lunch on Oct. 1, 2024, the students were involved in a conversation on how to "end him," the report said. According to interviews with the suspects, the plan involved allegedly luring the boy to a bathroom and stabbing him in the stomach.
One of the students interviewed said she had walked over while the group was discussing the plot and made jokes about it, according to the report. But the girl insisted that she was joking while the other students "started to get serious" and she began to back off as a result, the report said.

'46's "A Stolen Life" was one of Bette's biggest hits at WB. In this romance, there's a selfish sister & a low-key sister. Young Glenn Ford is the man who attracts both sibs. This is a romantic soap, in "The Great Lie" vein. My look at all these sisters here:

Raines created a successful YouTube channel dedicated to her advocacy efforts rescuing foxes from fur farms.
Animal rescue activist and YouTube star Mikayla Raines has died by suicide, according to her husband. She was 29.
Ethan Raines announced her death in an emotional video he posted to her YouTube channel on Monday.
He said that for years his wife suffered from various mental health issues and struggled to cope with online criticism.
"She couldn’t bear what she was feeling any longer, and she ended her life," he said. "And it breaks my heart that someone who is selfless and devoted her life to animals could have so much negativity pointed at her."
"And to those of you that pushed her to this, every one of you that had been responsible for making her feel this way, I wish you had to feel what she felt," he added. "I wish you had to feel what I feel."
Mikayla Raines created an animal rescue nonprofit, SaveAFox Rescue, in 2017, when she was just 20 years old. The organization, which is based in Lakeville, Minnesota, is dedicated to rescuing foxes from fur farms and providing them with "forever homes." The nonprofit has saved more than 150 foxes, according to its website.

Ethan Raines said he performed CPR on his wife for fifteen minutes before paramedics arrived.
He encouraged those who are "feeling lost and hopeless" to reach out to friends, family or a crisis hotline, and for those with loved ones who are struggling to "do something or say something before it’s too late."
"Despite this being the biggest loss of my life and feeling like I have a literal hole in my chest," he said. "I will not let Mikayla's light be extinguished, and I won’t let negativity win, and I won’t let her mission fall apart."
He said that he intends to continue his wife's work and requested privacy in the near future.
"As long as you guys will continue to support all of us here at SaveAFox," he said. "We will keep pushing forward. I’m confident we can bring more light to this world, and we’ll be doing it for Mikayla."
The wildlife activist also leaves behind a young daughter who was featured regularly on her social media accounts, Freya.

Further proof of what progressives have been telling "moderates" all along but keeps falling on deaf ears: much of Trump's success isn't even rooted in partisan tribalism - he simply captured a large segment of voters who absolutely despise establishment Democrats.
It's also why Dem leaders would rather spend all their time, energy, and resources sabataging the progressives than stand up to Trump - progressives threaten their positions of power, while Trump's existence enhances them.
The path to defeating Trumpism is simple and clear, and the Democratic establishment is what stands in the way. They've gotta go.

When I was a boy we had lots of big families all around with mothers constantly overwhelmed by so many children but I never heard of this happening.

He added, “Kimberly is perfectly suited to foster strong bilateral relations with Greece, advancing our interests on issues ranging from defense cooperation to trade and economic innovation.”

Actor Brad Pitt's home in Los Angeles has been ransacked by a trio of thieves.
Three suspects broke into the home in Los Feliz late on Wednesday through a front window and "ransacked the location," according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Police did not confirm the home belonged to the Oscar-winning actor, but the address matched that of a home Mr Pitt purchased in 2023.
Authorities said the suspects fled with stolen items, though it's unclear what was taken. The actor was not home at the time of the burglary, US media reported.
Last month, a man was also arrested on stalking and vandalism charges after he allegedly rammed his vehicle into the gate of the home of Pitt's ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston.

There must be a dozen grape varieties, mostly reds, grown on just the one vineyard I visited in years past. I'm wondering if one can taste the difference when the grapes are fresh. Do fresh Cabernet grapes taste much different than Pinots, for example? Even here, grocery stores only sell "red table grapes" or "green table grapes". Am planning on going to the winery across the street during the Fall harvest and ask if I can sample a a few different types when fresh. It would be easy enough to ride around on my e-bike and just take some. My first guess is that they all have seeds and would taste like crap.

The bill also allows the use facial recognition to target and fine attendees of any LGBTQ+ events in the country.

The 2024-2025 Supreme Court term has officially ended. Oh what a year. No justice has gone up and down in the ranks of both Republicans and Democrats in the last decade than Amy Coney Barrett.
To some, she represented a bright light to save America from an out of control Trump Regime. To others, she was appointed to rubber-stamp anything with Trump's name on it because she was appointed by him.
I am curious how her judicial career will turn out. She is young and will be on the Court for a long time. She seems to be more in line Chief Justice Roberts more than the Thomas-Alito-Gorsuch ideology. She also showed a disdain for Trump at the State of the Union Address in March. My guess is a modern Sandra Day O'Connor or Anthony Kennedy.

Arthur from 1981 (82?)
I think I watched it when I was 20-21 and was not impressed. I am 45 now and watched it again-
I heartily laughed a good 20 times and was also moved - it was a really nice diversion-
I loved it.
Dudley's performance is next level great and he was a very talented guy. Liza (Lizsha) was over the top- but it worked- because like Dudley, she is so fucking likeable- See how she handles a horse making noises during her monologue (Its lovely) and that damn Sir John Gielgud (sp) deserved the Oscar-
The only weak link is the godawful Jill Eikenberry- but it 100% works, because she is supposed to be annoying as fuck.
Highly recommended- A laugh out loud comedy with 3 seriously great performances and a whole lot of heart.

Beauty, elegance, and not being Audrey Hepburn made her an international star.
Her screen career was short but legendary: High Noon, The Country Girl, Dial M for Murder, Rear Window, To Catch a Thief, The Swan, and High Society. Then, at the height of her career she became a literal princess when she married Rainer III, Prince of Monaco.
As Princess of Monaco, she focused on bringing ballet, opera, fashion, and horticulture to the People of Monaco. She was also the first female board member of 20th Century Fox, an author on both poetry and horticulture, and she sought to historically restore Newport, Rhode Island.
However, tragedy struck in 1982 when she suffered a cerebral hemorrhage while driving and drove off a mountain at the age of 52.

A 19-year-old teen in Knoxville, Tennessee is facing serious charges after he allegedly beat a man with a plunger -- sticking it in the victim's mouth -- before stripping him naked, covering him with bleach, and then leaving with a 3-year-old child.
Charles Coffman was arrested and booked earlier this week on charges of aggravated kidnapping, attempted second-degree murder, tampering with evidence and theft, per Knox County Sheriff records.
It all began on Sunday, after authorities reportedly received a call from someone concerned Coffman had killed someone and kidnapped a young girl, according to a police report via WVLT.
When police got to the scene, they found a male victim "in the bathroom, naked, and with serious head injuries." They also reportedly noted a strong bleach odor, while a 3-year-old child and the victim's car, a Ford Explorer, were missing.
A BOLO was placed on the vehicle, which was soon found in nearby Sevierville with Coffman, the child, and an unnamed woman inside. The young girl was taken to the hospital for observation.
Per the police docs, Coffman allegedly said he had been told by the child's mother to take an Uber to the home and pick up the girl. He said, according to authorities, he "got into a physical fight with the victim" at the residence.
"[Coffman said] he slammed the victim into the ground, struck him in the face multiple times with his fists, struck [the victim] with a toilet plunger and stuffed this plunger into the victim's mouth," reads the report. "[Coffman] also admitted to dragging the victim into the bathroom, stripping him naked, and pouring bleach on the victim's wounds."
He also allegedly claimed he had permission to take the vehicle from the home.
The child's mother, however, disputed his account when contacted by police. She allegedly said she "did not and would not" allow Coffman to have the child or the car and claimed she hadn't spoken with him.
The other woman in the vehicle, meanwhile, allegedly told police she walked into the home to find the victim on the floor -- before she said Coffman gave her the child and they left. She claimed she also heard him on the phone telling someone he "didn't know if the victim was alive or dead."
Coffman remains behind bars. He has a bond hearing set for Friday, June 27.

IFC had Jaws 2 on about five times yesterday, so I decided to watch it again. I remember seeing it in the theater when I was in high school and remembering it was pretty exciting. Nothing in comparison to the original, but much better than the awful sequels that followed. Some observations:
- David Elliott, who played Larry, had the hottest damn ass, especially when he fell in the water and his jeans got wet and clung to him.
- Gary Dubin, who played Eddie, the first kid to get killed by the shark, died of bone cancer back in 2016. :-(
- Steven Van Zandt's brother Billy played one of the teens in the movie.
- Donna Wilkes, best known as that whore from "Angel," was actually pretty good at playing terrified and in shock.
- My favorite part was when the one teen girl got swallowed whole by the shark.
The movie's a little heavy on teens screaming, but overall, there was some good suspense.

In 1978, siblings Scott and Amy Fandel lived in Sterling, Alaska, with their mother, Margaret.
Scott, who was 13-years-old at the time, is remembered as a prankster who was intelligent and had a love of motorcycles and the great outdoors. His 8-year-old sister Amy was known as a sweet girl who was kind to others and cared about animals.
Together, Scott, Amy, and Margaret resided in a small cabin located on Scout Lake Loop Road. Yet, on September 4, 1978, the brother-sister duo mysteriously went missing from their home.
The Disappearance Of The Fandel Siblings
Leading up to the night Scott and Amy vanished, Margaret had been going through a bitter divorce with her husband, Roger Fandel, who was Amy’s father. He was reportedly unfaithful and, following their split, relocated to Arizona by himself.
Once Margaret became a single parent, Scott and Amy were reportedly left unsupervised on a regular basis. Still, given the fact that Scott was a teenager, he was viewed as an adequate babysitter for Amy.

Once Margaret became a single parent, Scott and Amy were reportedly left unsupervised on a regular basis. Still, given the fact that Scott was a teenager, he was viewed as an adequate babysitter for Amy.
While their mother was out, Scott and Amy reportedly visited the home of the Lupton family, their nearest neighbors and close friends. The pair played at the Lupton’s for a while until they were eventually sent home for being too loud.
Margaret and Cathy returned home sometime between 2:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m., at which point they found all the lights had been turned off in the cabin.
Additionally, they discovered an open can of tomatoes, a package of macaroni on the counter, and a pot of boiling water on the stove.
Margaret knew that Scott liked to have macaroni as a snack, but why he stopped in the middle of cooking remains unknown.
It’s also unclear whether she checked on her children before heading to bed that night, which has been a large point of debate online.
The following morning, when she woke up, Margaret realized the children weren’t home and supposedly thought they’d already gone to school.
However, Amy and Scott never returned home, and later that day, the Lupton kids came looking for them to play.
Margaret became panicked and ultimately contacted the Alaska State Troopers at 5:14 p.m. on September 5, 1978, and reported her children missing.
The Search For Scott And Amy
Authorities used search dogs from Anchorage to execute an extensive search of the surrounding wooded area, but the effort yielded no clues.
Additionally, they scoured ferries and told Canadian Mounties to keep an eye out for anyone trying to cross the border with the siblings.
Margaret contacted her ex-husband, Roger, who confirmed he didn’t have the children. He reportedly flew in from Arizona to assist in the search.
One potential theory involved two carnival workers from the Alaska State Fair whose black sedan had been seen speeding away from the cabin on the night Scott and Amy vanished. According to the men, though, they’d gone back to Sterling to pick up their paychecks.
They also claimed that they were only passing by the Fandel’s cabin after the kids had already gone missing. The men supposedly considered stopping by to visit, as they’d known the Fandels, but decided not to.
Another theory suggested that perhaps someone at Good Time Charlie’s had overheard that Scott and Amy would be at home alone that evening. This sparked speculation that the kids had been abducted. Still, it hasn’t been proven.

There's less than a month to go before online pornography becomes a lot harder to watch.
From July 25, porn sites available in the UK will have to perform stringent checks to ensure visitors are aged 18 or over.
In an attempt to stop children accessing porn, adults will have to submit ID or even have their face scanned, depending on what site they access.
Now, major porn providers have confirmed to online regular Ofcom that they will introduce these checks by next month's deadline.
They are Pornhub, the most-visited pornographic service in the UK, BoyfriendTV, Cam4, FrolicMe, inxxx, Jerkmate, LiveHDCams, MyDirtyHobby, RedTube, Streamate, Stripchat, Tube8 and YouPorn.
Ofcom said these 13 sites 'are happy to be named at this stage' and 'represent a broad range of pornography services accessed in the UK'.
But other porn sites not on the list, such as XHamster and XVideos, have to comply with the rule too. If any fails to do so, Ofcom can impose fines and in very serious cases apply for a court order to prevent the site or app from being available.

When she finally did die in 2015, it must have been a terrible blow to her family and friends. But something even worse was to come …

As the Agence France-Presse reports, scientists at the country's food safety regulator found that glass-bottled drinks contained about 100 microplastic particles per liter — which, strikingly, was up to 50 times higher than the amount found in drinks stored in plastic bottles.

I am trying so hard to have a mid-Atlantic accent. I think it is cool and unique.
I want to sound like an American James Mason or Christopher Plummer. Any advice?

The Californian singer was immortalized in David Lynch's "Mulholland Drive" (2001), in which she performed "Llorando", a Spanish-language version of Roy Orbison's "Crying". She died on June 23, just a couple of weeks short of her 58th birthday.

For every 20 positions, there’s one qualified candidate, says one manufacturing chief executive.
President Trump’s pledge to revive American manufacturing is running into the stubborn obstacle of demographic reality.
The pool of blue-collar workers who are able and willing to perform tasks on a factory floor in the United States is shrinking. As baby boomers retire, few young people are lining up to take their place. About 400,000 manufacturing jobs are currently unfilled, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics — a shortfall that will surely grow if companies are forced to rely less on manufacturing overseas and build more factories in the United States, experts say.
Difficulty attracting and retaining a quality work force has been consistently cited as a “top primary challenge” by American manufacturers since 2017, said Victoria Bloom, the chief economist at the National Association of Manufacturers, which produces a quarterly survey. Only recently has the issue slipped down on the list of challenges, superseded by trade-related uncertainty and increased raw material costs due to tariffs, Ms. Bloom said.
But the scarcity of skilled blue-collar workers remains a long-term problem, according to Ron Hetrick, an economist with Lightcast, a company that provides labor data to universities and industry.
“We spent three generations telling everybody that if they didn’t go to college, they are a loser,” he said. “Now we are paying for it. We still need people to use their hands.”
The hiring challenges faced by American factories are multifaceted.
The president’s crackdown on immigration, which includes attempts to revoke deportation protections for migrants from troubled countries, may eliminate workers who could have filled those jobs.
Many Americans aren’t interested in factory jobs because they often do not pay enough to lure workers away from service jobs that may have more flexible schedules or more comfortable working environments.
For some companies, remaining globally competitive involves the use of sophisticated equipment that requires employees to have extensive training and familiarity with software. And employers cannot simply hire people right out of high school without providing specialized training programs to bring them up to speed. That wasn’t the case in the heyday of American manufacturing.
Attracting motivated young people to manufacturing careers is also a challenge when high school guidance counselors are still judged by how many students go on to college.

These little shits swung conservative this last election despite everybody hyping them up as saviors of American democracy.
I think it should, just for them. And include both male and female Gen Z in that draft since they're all about gender equality. A little war might do them some good!
