'Professor fired over anti-Charlie Kirk post wins $500,000 settlement and his old job back' & other Wed/Thurs news briefs

Professor fired over Charlie Kirk post just won a major payout — and his old job back - God Bless America! 

Speaking of Charlie Kirk, check out the hypocrisy of one of his followers. This is Lori Mills of California. She considers herself a Christian:

Here is Lori Mills again, but without her mask:


She put me on block after that lovely message, but I tracked her down on her webpage and told her that she makes herself look ridiculous and hypocritical. Probably not necessary of me, but I was feeling rather evil today. I also reported her on Twitter because apparently there is a category you can report someone if they encourage you to harm yourself or commit suicide. I don't know if anything is going to happen, but you never know.


 Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting - By the way, we are arguing about this awful situation which just unfolded today in Minnesota. I didn't put it first in my news briefs because it's just too heartbreaking We are going to be hearing a lot more about it as the weeks and months go by.

In other news: 

Donald Trump wins when he destroys our resolve. But the queer resistance lives on. - This right here is very important. When we give up or give in, we lose. But we aren't a people made for giving up in defeat. That's the thing we must always remember. 

Pride organizers, ACLU sue Indiana city again, saying it defied court - We won in court to have a pride event, but the town is trying to ignore the ruling. BAD idea. 

Kennedy Center renaming triggers backlash - The LGBTQ community does not claim Richard Grenell. Not even a little bit.

Gavin Newsom preparing 'Grindr servers' for MAGA fraud seeker - Still not a fan, but Gavin Newsom is a BEAST to the bigoted far right.

The story about the murder of Renee Good is truly heartbreaking. In light of all the hate unleashed due to the current admins focus on cruelty is the point I thought I'd stop by and say howdy. Also I hope your new year is everything you need.

I am grateful that you've been a reliable and beautifully appropriately snarky companion for the many years I've followed your blog. You are a voice in the darkness which reminds me to let my own light shine. :)
