Katie Starks, anti-masker, has apparently been losing sponsors thanks to her days-long rants about 'masking choice'. According to her it's not her fault for not aligning with the values of said sponsors. It's the fault of cancel culture.

Robert Scoble, tech expert, wants to get you drunk so you will tell him things: If I was a smart tech journalist I'd invite Vic Gundotra out for drinks tonight and get him to spill the beans on the Google phone. :-) 13 minutes ago from web Why do people think that pouring drinks down someone will result in all kinds of beans all over the table?

Sunshine Mary, "a concealed-carry kind of a girl", is taking a stand against colleges creating a "rape culture" - but not in the way you might think: Sexual assault centers and programs have only increased in visibility and campus involvement in the years since I’ve been out of college.  And oddly, according to them, campuses are even rapey-er than ever before.  They say there is an entire rape culture on campus.
