  • Freestyle skier Hunter Hess was asked at a press conference Wednesday how he feels about representing America at the Winter Olympics, given its acute tension over violent immigration raids and other political crises.

    “There’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of, and I think a lot of people aren’t,” Hess said in Italy.

    "Just because I’m wearing the flag doesn’t mean I represent everything that’s going on in the US,” Hess added.

    Hess said it "brings up mixed emotions to represent the US right now.”

    This young man is a hero for speaking out.








  • These included: “DOES MELANIA WEAR PRADA? FIND OUT FRIDAY!” and “TO DEFEAT YOUR ENEMY. YOU MUST KNOW THEM. MELANIA.”

    And further below:

    Even before the rights to “Melania” were revoked, the Lake Theater & Cafe had received emails from the community asking why the film was being shown at all, according to theater General Manager Jordan Perry’s blog post.

    “Mostly, I thought doing so would be funny. For some of you, that’s enough. Great! Otherwise… Financially, the film marketplace this week and next were a desert… So, to fill a screen, why not get this inexplicable vanity piece from the current president’s wife? I mean, it just seems so weird that it even exists (who wants a movie about Melania lol?), and wouldn’t it then be exponentially weirder, to the point of being funny, to show it here, at your obviously anti-establishment, occasionally troublemaking, neighborhood cinema?” Perry wrote.

    This is hilarious, I love it! That Perry dude is a riot.
