Hello all, welcome to the show. We have our first two time winner of the OGE. Les is thus the recipient of the first Oak Leaf cluster for the OGE service ribbon. Good work Les!
The answer, if you haven’t read the comments, was that all the songs were about prostitutes. No blow involved.
We have another question this week. Best of luck.
On to the music.
Big Tech Expose Themselves With Crackdown on Antifa Accounts
Red State | January 21, 2021 | BonchieAntifa are bad again, you guys. That’s the message being sent by the big tech companies tonight. After years of ignoring the threat and allowing these domestic terrorists to operate freely, Twitter has started banning prominent Antifa accounts, including the account for a bookstore that operates as a training center for the group.
What changed? I bet you know exactly what changed.
Joe Biden is a miracle worker. All he had to do was take office, thereby setting up a situation where Antifa was embarrassing for the wrong side, and poof, they are cancelled. Of course, they’ve been running wild for years, burning cities, setting up “autonomous zones,” committing violent attacks, and generally acting like fascistic freaks. The left and their big tech allies could not have cared less. Why? Because they saw Antifa as a way to make Trump look bad. They were attacking the “right” target, and that made them acceptable for the time being. Trump is gone now, though, and Antifa attacking Biden is a bridge too far. Therefore, they must be cast aside finally.
In a vacuum, that’s not a bad thing, but man is the timing absolutely disgusting. The media and big tech sad idly by, watching as businesses were destroyed and people were killed, because they thought letting such carnage happen was a way to hurt the bad orange man. There’s being cynical, and then there’s whatever the heck that’s called.
Gretchen Whitmer Travels To D.C. For Inauguration After Telling Michiganders To Stay Home
The Daily Wire | Jan. 22, 2021 | Jon BrownDemocratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer traveled to Washington, D.C., on Wednesday to attend President Joe Biden’s inauguration, despite having urged her own constituents to stay home amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The country is ready for a leader who listens to medical experts to lead our country’s COVID-19 response and works on behalf of hardworking Americans,” Whitmer said in a
Mad Libs-like
press release before the inauguration, according to local Fox 2 Detroit. “I am honored to attend the inauguration of President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris and ready to begin working closely with each of them to fight this virus, save lives, and put the country back on track.”
“I wanted to be present,”
She told her subjects, who were not allowed to visit their dying parents in nursing homes,
“so it was something that was important to me.”
“Whitmer has generally discouraged Michiganders from traveling and attending gatherings during the coronavirus pandemic,” according to the Detroit Free Press.
“Her spokeswoman could not immediately say whether Whitmer was taking any special precautions or whether she was flying commercial or in a state plane.”
If 2021 Already Seems Like Too Much, There’s a Hotline That Urges People To Call in and Scream
KSBW | Jan 19, 2021 | Lauren M. JohnsonThose exhausted by 2021 — and well, all of 2020 — can get some relief by calling a hotline and screaming. Yes, really.
Just Scream!, a hotline created by elementary school teacher Chris Gollmar, aims to reduce tension for those needing an outlet. All you have to do is call the hotline and scream as loud as you want, and for as long as you want — and then hang up.
“I wanted to find a prompt that people would respond to and screaming seemed to be a good fit!” Gollmar told CNN of his creative project, which he came up with in September 2020 and launched just before Election Day in November.
Gollmar, who said he’s been an artist and coder since he was a kid, spends his free time working on participatory art projects that invite people to call a phone number and leave a voicemail for others to hear.
This time, he said he “thought it would be funny and unique to create a phone line just for screaming.”
