Holy Crap It’s Wednesday (formerly Tuesday Tidbits)

Gotta lead off with this one…Daily Wire is coming out with a movie about a former men’s basketball team that reunites – and says they identify as female to compete as a women’s team. Check out the trailer at Trailer  Looks to be politically incorrect as all get-out…gonna have to watch. Will it have the same ‘juice’ as Blazing Saddles? Probably not, but nowadays, you get what you can.

You may recall this “woman” – the confused man transgender female who wants to compete with ‘her’ fellow women despite having gone through male puberty and having a huge strength advantage therefore. Half the women’s team quit in protest when Becky Lee Birtwhistle Hodges was selected to the team again.

Sports like rugby, athletics, swimming and cycling have also ruled over the past 18 months that transgender women cannot compete in the women’s category if they have gone through male puberty.

“This is an extremely emotive subject and one we have seen a number of other sport struggle with,” said Jamie Cook, the chief executive of the Angling Trust. “Angling has a strong heritage of open events and both our national and world championships are already universal (open) categories allowing the best anglers to compete regardless of gender.

“The evidence generated through our review process established that strength, stamina and physical attributes have the potential to offer competitors a significant advantage and in doing so impact fairness. Telegraph

Happy for the lady anglers…note one new factoid: There is ALREADY an open division where confused drama queens transgenders can compete – but he ‘Becky’ chooses to compete against the girls.

An unfortunate fact of life for dog lovers is that many Koreans eat dog. The current government wants to phase that out:

According to a bill which aims to end South Korea’s dog meat trade by 2027, announced by the ruling People Power Party on Nov. 17, businesses—such as dog farms, butchers, retailers, and restaurants—will have to submit to local authorities their plans to phase out dog meat. They would also be given a three-year grace period, as well as financial aid from the government, to transition out of the trade.

The bill is the result of rare bipartisan support, after 44 lawmakers from both the ruling party and the opposition Democratic Party of Korea formed a group last month to discuss the issue. But among the most prominent advocates for the ban is first lady Kim Keon-hee, with whom South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol shares five cats and six dogs. (Yoon had previously drawn criticism, even from fellow party members, for proposing that the anti-dog meat bill be named after his wife.)

So your next Korea tour may no longer offer the opportunity to masticate Fido, only fornicate him.

Authorities say there are over 1,000 breeding farms and 34 slaughterhouses in South Korea, as well as some 1,600 restaurants that serve dog meat. Industry representatives say the numbers are far bigger, with an estimated 3,500 farms and 3,000 restaurants that face risks of shutting down should a ban be implemented.  Time

In return, the Dog Meat Farmers Association is threatening to release two MILLION dogs near government landmarks and lawmakers’ homes. Gotta admit, they are more entertaining to watch than BLM.
