No, no, it’s not just about a cryptocurrency. It’s a cryptocurrency just to protest how toxic cryptocurrencies have become! Because throwing dildos at women isn’t toxic at all. No, what’s toxic is other peoples’ meme coins getting more popular than my memecoins, so I have to change that!
It is about misogyny (and I’m guessing also homophobia), being spurred on by cryptocurrency pushers.
“We didn’t do this because like we dislike women’s sports or, like, some of the narratives that are trending right now are ridiculous,” he said. “Creating disruption at games is like, it happens in every single sport, right? We’ve seen it in the NFL, we’ve seen it in hockey, you know . . . fans doing random things to more or less create attention.”
They conveniently dodge the reason why they targeted the WNBA specifically with it, but USA Today to their credit didn’t let them off the hook in the article.
Is the throwing of sex toys at WNBA games misogyny?
It sure seems that way based on the available evidence (and a calculated and blatant example of misogyny, too).
Because the NFL and MLB fields are too far away from the seats for even a QB or outfielders to throw one, NHL and NBA aren’t playing right now. NASCAR you could kill somebody. So you pick the easy target.
Absolutely not true given that dildos have been thrown onto football fields for years already.
This was almost 7 years ago.
I saw Bucky Dent take a whiskey bottle to the head. People are horrible. Can we please have another pandemic to make them stay home?
RFK Jr. is working on it!
I was at a minor-league baseball game last week. We were in the most distant seats in the park, and I think I’d still have had a decent chance of getting it onto the field. The guy throwing T-shirts to the crowd was able to make it to the back rows even throwing uphill. And minor league baseball is probably about as prominent as women’s basketball.
“They’re called the Centers for Disease Control, not Centers for Disease Prevention.”
No masking, no water fluoridation, reduced (or no) testing…
They do a shit job of control, too
Well, it’s actually the Centers for Control of news about Diseases. If we refuse to gather data on illness & death, and refuse to talk about illness and death, then illness and death do not exist, amiright?
The difference between the current criminal regime and their RW boosters versus toddlers continues to shrink by the day.
Ew, that’s gross.
Don’t worry, boy, I know the trick, and to you I’m gonna show it.
Man, you just woke up synapses that haven’t been used in over sixty years.
Help me out, I don’t get the reference, and sixty years ago my synapses were still three years in the making.
Does it involve muscles clenching in fear that haven’t been clenched in many decades?
I had to google it.
But people won’t stay home next time –
(I suppose some of the sensible ones will do their best. But it’s going to be a lot harder, especially for people who need to keep their jobs.)
I don’t suppose they carry them all touching each other within the same box.
I wasn’t able to stay home last time because my job was one that required my physical presence and keeping people fed is sort of essential to maintaining civilization. But you better believe I masked up, gloved up, sanitized, and vaccinated myself to the extent I could. Well, at least I got some hazard pay so not all bad.
Remember, by the time the vaccines rolled out, the states were already perfectly sorted, with every state that voted Trump having higher covid rates than every state that voted Clinton. This, despite the fact that diseases naturally spread easier in urban areas.
There’s a heck of a lot that Republicans were doing wrong.
wooooosh!
ETA: Or perhaps not, since it is only one dozen.
