Friday Reads

I returned back from Florence, Oregon.  It was a wonderful trip, and, if I get any ambition over the next few days, I will post some pictures from the trip.  I strongly recommend Road Scholar for organized trips, especially for those fifty and older (it was originally called Elderhostel).

Scoliosis is a bitch to live with, and I have since around age 11 or 12, but I am glad nobody messed with my back at all:

Men don't belong in women's sports, no matter what the fuck they call themselves.

The article completely mischaracterizes Caster Semenya, who is in fact a MAN, NOT a woman of any sort.  It also isn't a right-wing issue, no matter what the slanted article tries to portray it.

These women lose, and women's sports loses all meaning and becomes a dumping ground for cheaters.

Yes, #HimToo:

E Jean Carroll, now 75, whose advice column has appeared in Elle for the past 26 years, alleges she was sexually assaulted by Trump in her new book What Do We Need Men For? A Modest Proposal.

She has shared the story and five others with New York in a piece that also details how Les Moonves allegedly fondled her in an elevator and hints at an incident of sexual misconduct involving her former boss Roger Ailes.

She appears on the magazine's cover in the very same coat dress that she claims she was wearing on that day in the Fall of 1995 or Spring of 1996 when a chance encounter with Trump allegedly turned into a sexual assault.

Trump allegedly shoved Carroll against a wall, unzipped his pants and forcibly penetrated her in an attack she claims lasted three minutes.

The article in question is here.

It is like every single man she has ever met has sexually assaulted her.  Most women are not sexually assaulted in their lifetimes, yet this woman BRAGS about it.  I think she is full of shit.
