SO ANYONE CAN FIX ME WITH A FAKE ONE? Vaccination Passports Are Coming Soon.
Because even if I break down and get the vaccine — not for the foreseeable — I will not get the stupid paper. Any real American should fake one.
REWRITING THE PAST: NBCUniversal is scrubbing racist scenes from WWE matches.
“Racist.”
“I hear Bad News Brown, how he’s talking about Harlem, and how he’s proud to be from Harlem,” Piper said during the pre-match interview, which was also removed from the service. “Now I can stand here, and I can be black! I can be white! Don’t make no difference to me. … It’s what’s inside.”
I come from this parallel universe where saying you don’t care about skin color, only what is inside is the opposite of racism. It was a lovely place. I’d go back if only I could find the way.

That headline is such a bait and switch, though. Note that the article has not a single word about baseball bats. Not even those made of pine, which everyone knows is a soft wood.
AND THIS IS A GOOD FOLLOW UP TO THAT: Octopus research yields insight into the evolution of sleep.
SOMETIMES I LOSE MY MIND AND WRITE VERY SILLY SHORT STORIES ON MY BLOG: On the Other Tentacle.

COWARDICE IN THE FACE OF WOKENESS. “From what I saw, wokeness insists that only Black people have the right to enunciate their experiences and claims against society, and that everyone else must abide by their pronouncements. It asserts the same about Jews and other minorities as well. Anyone who wants to be in the good graces of the Black activists, it seemed, would have to adopt these pieties. It turns out that many progressives are eager to be in their good graces.”

6TH CIRCUIT RULES FOR PROF WHO REFUSED TO USE PREFERRED PRONOUNS. I am still reading the opinion, but looks like very good news for free speech on campus. (Judge Thapar, who authored the opinion and has been great on campus speech and due process, went to my high school in Toledo, though a few years before I did. Hometown pride!)

CBS NEWS, ONE YEAR AGO TODAY: Coronavirus updates from March 26, 2020.
The U.S. has more confirmed cases of the coronavirus than any country in the world, surpassing China, where the pandemic began. There are now more than 85,000 cases in America and nearly 1,300 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University.
Curious that CBS News trusts the numbers issued by the CCP. As Glenn wrote last April: Time to put China on lockdown for its dishonesty amid coronavirus crisis.
