Sadistically Speaking

There has been a lot of recent debate on allowing Trans-Women to play in Women's sports. Most of the debate has been boring. But one point that is rarely raised is that biological women have a lot of barriers to training for elite levels in sports - not the least of which is that their bodies change drastically as they age, during the menstrual cycle and as a result of pregnancy. Trans-women get to avoid these issues and that is a strong argument to me why they should not be...

One of the major arguments for banning of assault rifles is that they are not useful for hunting are designed to kill people....but that is exactly the kind of weapon that is protected by the second amendment. There is not a constitutional right to hunt animals, but there is a right to kill humans who want to impinge on your rights. Guns suck but people are worse. Also, what is your favorite Nickleback song? Or...can you name a Nickleback song? #FuckProhibition

You are more likely to die from suicide than be murdered. Why don't we discuss this more? Because it is impolite I guess but that is what I do best....be impolite. The statistics on suicide are enlightening and frightening. Also, What the fuck is happening in Lesotho? #TeamDaphne

CNN and Fox News headlines about February inflation numbers seem to be in direct conflict. Well, they chose different numbers and so they are both right and both pieces of shit. In this case, Fox chose the more reasonable straight-forward numbers and CNN chose convoluted numbers I still don't understand. But they made the opposite choices during the Trump presidency because they are manipulative bitches. Also, don't try an impromptu Julie Andrews impression while drink...

There are some movies that present themselves as commentaries on the historical problem of white colonization that actually backfire and seem to glorify white men. These movies often have white saviors and I think they are made to allow white people to feel good about their current moral outrage than to really tackle the issues involved. I am not trying to race-bait here, I just think it is funny how hypocritical the morons are who write these movies. Also, the word shlub is...

"All Quiet On The Western Front" is another in a log line of movies showing us the horrors of war at the level of the individual soldier. We love these kinds of movies! They allow us to feel compassion and righteous anger about the meaningless nature of warfare.....until it is time for us to support sending more bullets and tanks and drones to Ukraine. I hope that we can repress our memories of supporting this war by the time the Ukranian war version of this movie is made. A...

There is a lot of discussion of the "whitewashing" of history in American schools but that hasn't been my experience. Most Americans don't know shit about American or world history - but they all know about slavery, Jim Crow Laws and segregation....even if they can't name more than 3 presidents. More history lessons is not the answer to racial divides. We could start having better dialogues if we get rid of the useless virtue signaling that goes along with Black History Mont...

I am a prolific crier. But what purpose does crying serve? It appears to be a universal human activity that is specifically human...but it is difficult to come up with a compelling evolutionary explanation for its ubiquity. Interesting....or maybe I am just trying to divert attention from me being a bitch. Also, Fuck you Tom Brady. #Mr.Kitty

The Star Spangled Banner is an awful national anthem for the US. it is a mediocre poem put to a tune ripped off from a British song-writer. It is time for an update that really reflects who we are and what we ant to sing at sporting events. Bring on the American Hair Bands! Also, did you realize the band Cinderella was a Philly band? I always thought they were from Europe. #PunctuationRules

Everyone distrusts the news media today....but we never really did and that is a good thing. The evil media mogul distorting our thoughts is even more time-honored than the evil scientist (though Fauci is bringing it back with a vengeance). What we need is fewer fact checkers and more open debate. Bring me a Tucker Carlson - Anderson Cooper Cage Match!! #SoLongStelter
