God Forbid

 I live for this stuff

Hulu's upcoming Original documentary, "God Forbid: The Sex Scandal that Brought Down a Dynasty," which premieres Tuesday, November 1.

" In this revealing documentary, Giancarlo Granda, former pool attendant at the Fontainebleau Hotel, shares the intimate details of his 7-year relationship with a charming older woman, Becki Falwell, and her husband, the Evangelical Trump stalwart Jerry Falwell Jr."




African American Squirrel




Goshen College located in of all places Goshen, Indiana has a new mascot and its a Black Squirrel . During Homecoming weekend the college introduced Dash as the official mascot the college has been lacking. The school sports teams are called the Maple Leafs since 1957 as Goshen is called the Maple City.  When one inquires as to why it is called that, you discover it is because the city has a lot of maple trees. But of course. Duh. I would have preferred to see a giant foam maple leaf as the mascot but I guess that is not to be. Boring. Even the Toronto Maple Leafs shy away from such a mascot as they have a bear called Carlton as their mascot. ( who was actually named the NHL's best mascot.)  Well, maybe George Washington University will tickle my fancy when the woke college drops the Colonials moniker ( because colonialists were savage, racist conquerors you know ) and hopefully go with hippopotamuses ! 
 

Orange You Glad


For the first time ever the Chicago Bears will have orange helmets and ever is a long time considering the team has been around since 1919. The Thursday Night Football game on October 13th versus Washington , the bears will have orange helmets, orange jerseys and white pants. Bears linebacker Roquan Smith said  in a press conference:" It’s pretty sweet, It's a helmet. It’s orange. It’s different. But I think it’s pretty cool just to go out looking like a highlighter or something.”   The team will wear the helmets two times this season.  The next time will be versus the Cowboys in Dallas Sunday, Oct. 30 per a team press release and team uniform schedule ( yes there is such a thing). It will definitely have a pre-Halloween vibe about it with the orange. Not sure how this uniform is going to play to the diehard fans that are purists but Bears Chairman George H. McCaskey said about the uniform tweak: "We believe we have the best uniforms in sport, certainly among the most iconic .So, we're not looking to overhaul it. We just want to make enhancements to the existing look from time to time and we think this is a great enhancement. I'm very excited for this modification. I like that it's staying within the traditional Bears look. " 

Tik Tok Warehouse


I know America is becoming one big warehouse moving stuff  made in China to consumers all across the US. What confounds me is Tik Tok  getting into the fulfillment game. I honestly don't get the link from what the Tik Tok site is now to e-commerce. Let's not forget Tik Tok is owned and controlled by a Chinese entity. In any event , they are building and staffing e-commerce fulfillment centers. Things that make you go hmmmm
