I hate the fact Blogger has this new layout for posting, and it sucks. I like the previous one way better. Now I am going to get all kinds of hideous-looking shit, especially things that are blockquoted.

I would hope men stay the hell out of women's rugby (and all other women's sports). After all, women's sports has to mean something.

PayPal co-founder and CEO Peter Thiel is working overtime to be a more evil son-of-a-bitch than Charles Koch.
BuzzFeed News can reveal that in at least one instance during the summer of 2016, Thiel hosted a dinner with one of the most influential and vocal white nationalists in modern-day America — a man who has called for the creation of a white ethnostate and played a key role in an effort to mainstream white nationalism as the “alt-right.” And then Thiel emailed the next day to say how much he’d enjoyed his company.
Among those on the racist right, Thiel’s outreach raised hopes that his financial bet on Trump would extend into the ascendant alt-right movement, which despite its prominence was a collection of small and often cash-strapped organizations. One avowed white nationalist privately speculated that Thiel’s money and influence could have made him “our George Soros.”
Thiel’s wager on Trump paid off, at least at first, and the Republican candidate’s victory ushered him into a new echelon of political power. Thiel seeded allies throughout the new administration and won a direct line of communication with the White House.
Another billionaire with way too much money and time on his hands. It always spells trouble.

In case you missed the Bob Woodward appearance on 60 Minutes this past Sunday, you can find his interview with Scott Pelley here.
I haven't seen Woodward in a long time, but he has aged an awful lot. Of course, he is 77 years old, so he should be cut a little bit of slack.

This is why I say much of French culture is degenerate regarding boundaries between adults and children, men and women. To these directors, anything goes in the name of "art" and "freedom." To hell with ethics, to hell with the rights of child actors not to be sexually exploited.
