Got another TV show recommendation: SQUATTERS on A&E. Guy and his team finds people that are dealing with squatters in their homes, the home owners have the team sign a renovation lease, which allows the team to access the house, make renovations if they want, and basically annoy the fuck out of the squatters until they leave. Highly entertaining.

Journalism is about covering important stories. With a pillow, until they stop moving.

It’s funny watching the party that tried to ruin Brett Kavanaugh’s life using the completely unsupported narrative of Christine Blasey Ford suddenly start questioning the veracity a story with great depth of detail as far as time, place, and contemporaneous verification of events sourced from multiple women

@BrooklynBrett @ewarren She’s spectacularly loathsome. I find it fascinating how much of a retarded scold she is.

@dangitdale66 @realMaalouf I’m hoping our national patience is close to being exhausted with these chucklefucks.

22 yrs ago today, after a long zoning dispute with local officials that ruined his business, welder Marvin Heemeyer had enough & created the Killdozer.

He destroyed the mayor’s house, the judge’s house, town hall, the police station, & the bank - while avoiding hurting civilians or their property.

Happy Killdozer Day to those who celebrate 🎊

@iowahawkblog Problem is way too many large cities are “unwalkable” because of crime and bad people are allowed to run wild. I doubt many of these people have read Jane Jacobs or really studied how cities used to be built and managed. The Congress for the New Urbanism is a great resource

@ekmcguir @charlescwcooke @MarkWarner @colorblindk1d The Alabama plan is based on partisan silliness which both parties engage in regularly. The Virginia plan violated the VA constitutional requirements and the Dems were warned about in advance. Hope that helps.

Climate hypocrisy

Many Europeans disapprove of keeping cool with air conditioning, because of its climate impact

But most have no problem using 100x more energy on heating to keep warm

Climate change emotion often trumps logic

As France’s environment minister says: “We need air-conditioning to give vulnerable people some respite. But we mustn’t do it everywhere.”

@dangitdale66 Most famous cuttlefish-related clip ever. South Park of course. From the “Human CentiPad” episode. https://t.co/1JrHKYcHn1

95 years ago (May 15 1931) the University of Iowa golf team boycotted the Big 10 championships in Ann Arbor Michigan. It was in protest because the prior weekend at a dual meet at a Chicago country club vs Big Ten opponents Northwestern and U of Chicago, Hawkeye golfer George Roddy was prevented from playing because he was black.

Roddy was a senior from Keokuk, a 3 year letterman, Iowa's #1 player for 2 years, and team captain. For decades he held the course record at UI's Finkbine. The previous year, in 1930, he was barred from playing in the Big Ten championships at Westmoreland Country Club in Wilmette IL. After it happened in for a second year in a row, Hawkeye golf coach Charles Kennett announced he would withdraw his entire team over the treatment of his captain.

After graduating with an engineering degree, George Roddy was golf coach at HBCU North Carolina A&T until 1948. He moved to Indianapolis and created the golf program at Crispus Attucks High School. He was twice city golf champion of Indianapolis, 1963 and 1967, when he was well into his 50s.

Hats off to a great Hawkeye!
