Be happy, I'll look after everything else.
I don't have a partner.
I have a wife.
I am her husband.
Referring to each other as "partner" is beyond stupid and demeaning to the very concept of marriage.

@TheJimCornette In the 90s Eric Bischoff made wcw a tv product rather than an arena product because that was the way to save the company and make it profitable.
Now that pay per views are going the way of the arena show is this Tony pivoting toward making aew a TV product so that it can make money or is it tony burning the town?
Also, how dumb am I for thinking that the Vince wanna be is smart enough to have a strategy to keep aew going?
@HeyHeyItsConrad Is this Tony pulling an @EBischoff and making the product a tv product now that pay per views are going the way of the arena show, or is it tony burning the town?
We need to stop calling Carter Hart a rapist.
That could be a tough pill to swallow for some, but using such extreme language hurts the cause.
As the trial showed, we can’t prove what Hart did was rape. But we don’t have to.
We have a mountain of evidence to prove it was WRONG.
It might not be the result you want, but it is the result we can prove with the facts and evidence.
Following the accused’s acquittal, the league did not immediately reinstate the players. If they had truly done no wrong, you would think that their lengthy absence from the game would pressure the league to reinstate them ASAP. Instead the league said this (capitalization added for emphasis):
“The events that transpired after the 2018 Hockey Canada Foundation Gala in London, Ontario, prior to these players’ arrival in the NHL, were DEEPLY TROUBLING AND UNACCEPTABLE…
In relying on both our OWN INVESTIGATION, and the conclusions reached by Justice Carroccia in her OPINION, and the players’ acquittal, the League has determined that the conduct at issue falls woefully short of the standards and values that the League and its Member Clubs expect and demand…
Given their conduct, we carefully evaluated the players’ acquittal in court and the time spent away from the game. Taking into account that the players have been away from the game for 20 months… we have determined that the players will be eligible… to play in NHL games no sooner than December 1, 2025, bringing their total time out of the League to nearly two years.”
Some context for the severity of the suspensions:
Todd Bertuzzi was suspended 33 games for literally crippling Steve Moore with a dirty hit.
Chris Simon was suspended for 30 games for stomping on the leg of Jarkko Ruutu.
In comparison the Hockey Canada 5 were forced to miss over 22 months, or the equivalent of 140 or so games.
So the league, with the benefit of a private investigation and free of the legal loopholes that compromised the evidence allowed in trial, ruled that the players conduct warranted a suspension 4x the length of Bertuzzi breaking someone’s neck.
The NHL made it clear: what the players did was wrong. The player’s association did not fight the league’s unprecedented punishment.
For everyone that defaults to the now infamous “tHe FeMaLe JuDgE sAiD…” nonsense, our response should be simple: “the male commissioner said…”
For everyone that points to a lack of appeal as proof the players did nothing wrong, our response should be simple: “Why did the NHLPA not appeal the league’s ruling?”
And that is just the NHL’s stance. Hockey Canada agreed what the players did was wrong. In 2022, after reaching a 7-figure settlement with EM, the organization stood in the House of Commons, and based on their own findings (including critical testimony not heard in trial) determined “harm was caused” to EM.
When both the league and Hockey Canada, the de facto employers of the accused, are making it clear there was wrongdoing, illegal or not, we should take note.
And despite the army of uneducated Hart supporter’s claims, even the Justice Carroccia made it clear she was only ruling on the legality of the men, not the morality:
“It is not the function of this court to make determinations about the morality or propriety of the conduct… sole function of this court is to determine whether the Crown has proven each of the charges… beyond a reasonable doubt” (section E.479). This statement is two fold: it implies that the conduct could be morally reprehensible yet not illegal, and it is a reminder that the burden for proof is high. If the “judge literally said they did nothing wrong”, as many Hart supporters suggest, she would not have had to make that clarification.
By saying Carter Hart is a rapist, you open the door for his supporters to point to the RESULTS to refute the claim. By saying only what we can prove, that Hart did a horrible thing, we turn the tables. We now have the results that support that obvious fact.
Homophobes: “Why do gay people need a whole month to celebrate sex?”
Pride is about history, civil rights, community, and visibility. Sex is a small part of it.
It’s weird as fuck that homophones can’t think about LGBTQ+ people without immediately making it about sex.
What's harmful is taking food and healthcare away from people because you believe that food and medical care are privileges that are only afforded to those who are productive in the workplace in "respected jobs"
what is harmful is sending cops into neighborhoods and dragging people into private prison camps because they committed a misdemeanor, crossing the border illegally.
What is harmful is doing nothing about the number one cause of death in children, gun violence , because you want to protect your fantasy of overthrowing a government.
What is harmful is making laws telling gay people and trans people that because they do not meet your interpretation of your religious texts definition of normal that they have no right to exist as God made them.
What is not harmful is being gay or trans.
It's not an abomination if you're living the way God made you. God made people gay. God made people trans.
Also, you vote Republican , the party that starves the poor, starves the children , and treats the alien in our land as if they are criminals.
So let's stop pretending u care about God's command.
