re: American Political humor
This came across my desk as well and it is important to underscore Cracker Barrel has changed on policies over time (see Human Rights Campaign rating https://www.hrc.org/resources/buyers-guide/cracker-barrel-old-country-store-inc. )but it wouldn't shock me to learn they gave to anti-LGBTQIA+ groups and politicos if it came out.

Rant about LGBT & “politics”
This screenshot (courtesy of @FlatFootFox) is from The Verge’s liveblog of Monday’s Apple WWDC keynote. The keynote starts with Tim Cook at the Apple Park rainbow arch — something that is featured in almost every one of Apple’s prerecorded keynote videos.
First of all: it’s just a fucking rainbow. There was no explicit comment about LGBT rights. But okay, let’s assume it was implied.
Saying it’s a “political statement” downplays its importance, and how it affects the lives of so many people — people who just want to love another consenting adult of their choice. Or feel comfortable in their own body.
This isn’t a debate over taxes or whether the filibuster should be abolished. Stop framing it that way.
It’s basic human rights, and anyone upset or against it is being hateful and discriminatory. Not “political”.
I realize the show Earth: Final Conflict probably has not aged well, but the main character has a worm embedded in his arm that shoots lasers, and I want to remember it for that. (CW: arm worms)
Today’s hilarious example of misplaced national pride is inhabitants of Antananarivo who feel offended by the fact that the city didn’t even break into the top 20 listing of… *checks notes* … cities with the world’s worst air pollution.
Arizona Politics
I don't live in Arizona so take my comments with a grain of salt as I am not in the granularity of the politics there but
1) it sounds like they can't override her veto
2) good to see the veto
3) Heavens that is a lot of vetoes in general
🎉 And we have our winner! 🎉
Everybody, if you could please put your paws together for @CyberKitsune the winner of this lil’ raffle.
…
Now where’s my air pump?
