Kind of a smokeshow though...what's the deal, K-man, I've never heard of this local news flunkie from the PNW obviously...
At the risk of sounding creepy, Seattle news Asians are the real deal.

Also, the Los Angeles 'news Asian' game is pretty strong; the curve is skewed by the holy triumvirate of Sharon Tay, Maria Quiban, and Liberté Chan.

Also "Seattle News Asians" could have been a great Grunge band name.
That they could have amended in 2020

Not sure where to post this but since it could be spun toward politics...

Each day the Somerset and Johnstown newspapers share the PA Dept of Health updates with the new cases and new deaths on Facebook. Every single day the number one emoji reaction is the "laughing" face. I get that people around here don't take it seriously, but man, this area. I don't know how much longer I can stick it out here.

Don't know about your situation, but I knew probably by the time I was in 5th grade or so that I wasn't long for Central PA once I reached adulthood. (I got accepted to two schools outside the area, but couldn't afford housing, so that date got pushed to my mid-20s.)

You made to SC which is sort of an oasis within central PA.

I have a friend/old neighbor that's having FTM top surgery today. Didn't even know that was in the cards for her.

The biggest lie ever perpetuated by American television is that CHP does stuff. Outside of a very few exceptions, their remit is solely traffic enforcement; Ponch and John were frauds.

That said, it's for the best that there be an enforcement mechanism. People have clearly demonstrated that they cannot be trusted to do this stuff on their own, and the longer we have to deal with people not seeing past the end of their own noses the longer we have to stay on quarantie/lockdown.

Brian and Jacey are probably living in a home that sits on land that once was part of tribe.

If I'm understanding correctly shouldn't it be in the cards for him?

Not yet.

Edit to add: The reason I say that is because she continued using female pronouns in her social media updates from the hospital, and I'm not sure if she's fully transitioning or simply, you know, removing her boobs. (She is, or I guess was by now, to put it mildly, quite ample in that regard, as is her wife, and has talked about reduction surgery in the past. But this is a step beyond that.)

I like how Washington and Jefferson are now reduced to being known as "slaveholders" as if their contributions are equivalent to **** Zachary Tyler and Franklin J. Pierce

god dammit, NYT published that **** to make people angry and even knowing it's an intentional clickbait headline I'm still fuming

Bingo. More of this perpetual mythos that Native Americans were peacefully living in harmony with Mother Nature and each other before the white man arrived.

They were absolutely brutal to each other. Slaughtering other tribes and keeping the women and children as slaves. Torture. Murder. And so forth. The Lakota, as KtK aptly points out, got that land thru killing other tribes and pushing them out.

Why are we the only country on Earth that has to apologize/make amends for doing what virtually every civilization in the history of the world has done? It's just exhausting.
