Mass Murder in Texas: Can You Guess Why National Media Have Ignored This?

Jeffrey Jack “Jeff” Gerla was a 47-year-old psychologist who had taught at Kilgore College and more recently worked as a mental health specialist at Rusk State Hospital, which is about 15 miles from where Jeff lived in a trailer behind his mother’s house in New Summerfield: He was highly creative in everything he did.

Andrew Cuomo’s Weirdo Daughter

“Demisexual” is one of those made-up words used in social-media profiles by young people with mental-health problems, who can now claim as their celebrity role model Michaela Kennedy-Cuomo, who is the youngest of the three daughters of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Kerry Kennedy (the daughter of Robert F. Kennedy). Ace of Spades summarizes […]

‘Bioessentialist Concepts of Gender’

My journalistic skepticism kicked in when I saw this tweet screencapped by Ace. Surely, this can’t be real? But then I checked, and indeed this is a real tweet by a real person — well, a Canadian, anyway. I’ve never considered Canadians fully human, but let’s not digress . . . Here is the full […]

DeSantis Derangement Syndrome?

Sort of the way young Democrats […]

More Bisexual Tumblrina Craziness (and Other Random Insanity Updates)

The phrase “crazy Tumblrina” is wrong, because it’s redundant. No sane person is on Tumblr, and if you add bisexual to the descriptor (i.e., “crazy bisexual Tumblrina”), you’ve just wasted two words, because basically everyone on Tumblr is bisexual, or at least somewhere on the LGBTQ spectrum. But mostly, yeah, they’re bisexual. Let us parse […]

Milwaukee: Sarah Hoyt’s Shocked Face Could Not Be Reached for Comment

Gosh, who could possibly have foreseen this? A Milwaukee County Children’s Court judge and former president and CEO of the Cream City Foundation, which runs the city’s drag queen story hour program, has been arrested on seven counts of child pornography. Brett Blomme, 38, was arrested on Tuesday for allegedly uploading 27 images and videos […]

British Court Rules It’s OK to Call ‘Stephanie Hayden’ a ‘Pig in a Wig’

Not a woman: Anthony Halliday (left) as ‘Stephanie Hayden’ (right). Last year I described this menace to society: Anthony Halliday changed his name to “Stephanie Hayden” and became a transgender activist in England who “regularly threatens gender identity disbelievers with civil or criminal lawsuits, or attempts to have them ousted from their careers.” Now a British […]
