At some point I had the spare $ to get the Star Wars collection to indoctrinate my youngest.

On watching Episode IV, I found that it was the "edited" version.  Never have I experienced that level of buyer's remorse.

I sat there watching the hangar scene after the Cantina, with Jabba and Han chatting it up a-la-CGI with my jaw on the floor.

Immediately wanted my money back.

Some partisan race-baiter who poses as a journalist at Deadspin (whatever that is) concocts a story about some kid wearing blackface at a Chief's game and tries to shame the kid on social media. Epic Fail...turns out the kid is wearing Chief's colors and the headdress? Also, turns out the kid is bona fide and registered Native American.

Many Chiefs fans are planning to wear black and red face paint to the next game in a show of support for this kid, who has been getting attacked by the woke left.

UFB...err, wait...I meant totally believable. Par for the left.

And Deadspin is refusing to retract the story. They also refuse to show the full picture, only the angle that shows black side of his face. I expect this family to come into some money very soon. Journalism is dead.

I thought BLACKFACE was considered "offensive" and should not be used in normal diatribe.....oh wait  oops

This is what happens when the left’s demand for calling out racism exceeds supply

Blackface is. BLACKRED face is something new. We're not sure if it's offensive yet. We'll have to wait for the left to tell us.

The level of woke stupidity knows no bounds.  My son is an engineer for Texas Instruments.  He does validations on chips produced and then writes spec sheets and user manuals for TI customers to use.  After he writes these things, various departments review them for accuracy, etc. and make comments.  So, he fires off his latest documents and the HR department makes the comment "can not use the term "disable" as it is not inclusive."

In other woke news, the Daily Wire is releasing "Lady Ballers" tomorrow.

I saw a side-by-side of Dylan Mulvaney's first day as a chick alongside this movie's spoof of that day...let's just say it's tough to tell which one is satire and/or intentionally degrading.

Being a retiree and a washed up pilot, I don't have to participate in the woke games.  It's actually fun.   I'm using my 80s and 90s vernacular and it's very liberating.    Nothing feels as free as calling things "gay" and liking to look at a good set of tits.  Live free, like it used to be.  Fuck wokeism.....that shit is gay!

Since it's TI, I'm assuming his use of the term "disable" is in the technical sense, as in "disable the equipment"....YGBSM....we're living in straight up 1984.  Double plus ungood

DEI and intersectionality should be returned to hell where they originated. When you seek to divide, it’s usually successful, to your detriment and to your organizations.

Amen. It's a concerning indictment that our system promotes dudes like this, or at least let him slip *up* through the cracks to such a high-profile position as the vice superintendent of the Air Force Academy. This guy is anything but a role-model.

His article shows how thoroughly and wholly his thinking has consumed an explicitly racist ideology. That he is unable to see it would be extremely concerning to me if I was serving under him. His intentional and repeated use of 'white/Black' fell in lock-step with the racial crusaders' recommended use of the English language circa 2020:

Quote

Defensiveness is a predictable response by white people to any discussion...

...meeting with other white colonels, I drew attention to the reality that racial tension remains an important issue to address, after another Black man was killed by police...

A white colonel then brought up his concerns with the way a Black officer on the base...

A white colonel worried that a wing-level discussion about the disproportionate rate of Article 15s given to Black Airmen would have a chilling effect...

A white colonel raised his disagreement with a Black senior enlisted leader’s story of being offered an Article 15 for his boisterous...

When the Black enlisted leader told the story, he was the only Black person...

There's plenty more. It's a good thing this guy is currently side-lined, and I can only hope he never gets to wear a star. Tommy Tuberville, if you're reading this, you go girl. Airmen who served under him deserved better, and future airmen who would still do. Must be a pain for everyone around him that they had to work for someone so dumb.

He wasn't dumb. He saw what his superiors valued, and he put on the mask. Just another "great dude" as a captain who only ever wanted to be a general, at any cost.

In for a shock when they separate us by sex at the POW work camp.

It’ll almost be worth losing the next fight if I can’t watch this ass find out nobody cares what his pronouns and they will beat you the same way they hit the other men.

Assuming those are mom and dad (or perhaps dad and dad?), I'm trying to imagine the upbringing that resulted in such a severe mental disorder.

Nice 3 star officiating…. Don’t see that too often for a LtCol promotion.  I guess everyone gets to see where the 3 star stands on the subject.

It’s actually promoting to full bird
