My goodness.
An item in the cultural wind we noted yesterday here;
Lex Anteinternet: Cliffnotes of the Zeitgeist, 93d Edition. Porn ind...: Porn industry, Supreme Court weigh in as Wyoming requires age verification on adult sites : As of Tuesday, Wyomingites' access to some c...
That being this:
In other sex, sort of, news, a dude who looks like a dude went to the lady's room accompanied by the press (including a dude) and hoped to get arrested.
Transgender woman protests new law with visit to a Wyoming Capitol bathroom: Rihanna Kelver used the women’s restroom at the Wyoming Capitol building Tuesday in defiance of a new law prohibiting transgender people’s use of public facilities.
Has managed to be a feature story in every Wyoming news outlet, it seems. At least its in Wyofile, Cowboy State Daily, and the CST.
So, to get this straight, a guy, dressed as gal, goes to the lady's room, and nothing happens.
Is that really news?
If so why?
Well, because the dude claims to be a gal, and was hoping to get busted by the police, who had other things to do and didn't take note of it.
But still, you see (are you paying attention), he could have been arrested, really, he could have been. . .
and was hoping to be. . .
but, sadly, was not.
This is, I'd note, something for real conservatives to take note of. This guy has a mental illness being celebrated on the left as normal. Almost everyone knows that's BS. And the stench of that is what is causing, in part, conservatives, who would otherwise be horrified, to vote for a moral heap of stench such as Donald Trump, which Trump well knowns.
Indeed, right now, the Trumpites and his Merry Band of National Conservatives hope stuff like this keeps your eyes off the Big Ugly, and causes you to forget the Big Ugly in the next year.
And the press, for its part, plays into the delusion of the lies of the right and left.
Transgender woman protests new law with visit to a Wyoming Capitol bathroom
That didn't happen. What happened is a man who wants to be a girl, went to the capitol bathroom with members of the press and his female fiance (so I guess he's wants to be girl. . . but still marry a girl), hoping to be arrested, but nobody cares or even notices. A headline reading:
Man goes to capitol bathroom dressed as woman and nothing happens
Wouldn't be news, I guess.
On the Big Ugly, headline from the Tribune.
Medicaid, insurance cuts in ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ will harm Wyoming, healthcare advocates warn.
First Wyoming measles case in 15 years found in Natrona County
I'm making assumptions here, but it's going to turn out that the negligent parents, or parent, didn't vaccinate their kid.
Wyoming has a first rate education system. I note that, as a parent who wouldn't vaccinate a child probably isn't from Wyoming originally, I'm guessing, and is a dumbass. The Wyoming Freedom Caucus sort of hates education, because educated people know stuff and won't play this game, tend not to believe their fanciful version of reality, and hence we have this headline.
Wyoming expected to see $686M deficit in education spending
With an ignorant population, they can hope to bring Wyoming into rural stupidity such as occurs elsewhere in the US and helps explain a population voting to slit their own throats. They wouldn't see it that way, as they're ignorant themselves in many, although not all, instances.
And we have this:
Trump mental health cuts hit rural schools hardest
