The Politics Thread
I largely avoided the debate, knowing that it would be terrible but from what I've been reading this morning it seems as though Trump's "standby" comment is being remembered the most, followed by a number of people who seemed surprised at how well Joe did, which goes to show the type of disinformation that Biden has been up against-that so many expected him to be a doddering fool, just because of the lies that have been told about his neurological state.

ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?
Come to think of it, I do remember seeing a couple tweets about Selena Gomez. I don't follow Ehrich but I did check on soap actors, every now and then to see what they are up to if I read about a project that mentions them in one of the entertainment trade blogs. And then there was that stalking incident, which hopefully is no longer a concern. Not sure why Lovato would get together with someone who had been so stuck on a frenemy but they both seem sort of needy. When Y&R wanted him, he was in the midst of that stalking situation. Hopefully that has been resolved, so maybe he can have another crack at a stint with Y&R because he needs something productive to do. Welp. I guess what he needs is therapy, rather than a run on a soap.

Oh cringe, lol. Dude needs to get busy writing a song or something. I have to admit that I had no idea he was dating any one person because the last time I saw anything from him he seemed to be crushing on one or two other ladies, none of whom were Lovato. When that engagement post first made the rounds, I immediately jumped to the conclusion that it was a pandemic relationship. Two people who didn't have much else to do and became each other's 'thing to do'. Having said all that, I also would like to see him back at Y&R. Y&R has been salivating over his social media following as that is their main criteria these days, so it seems.

The View
This morning I saw a headline that Meghan had given her daughter a patriotic name and I was so sure that I knew what that name would be that I didn't even bother to read the article to see if I was correct. Now I have confirmation that I was correct. Talk about predictable!

If that's the case then that's really a shame. Ehrich should just focus on nurturing his talent because he is genuinely talented.

Besides being utterly unwatchable, Siegmund is the Nicolas Kiefer of women's tennis. The OGs will know what I mean.

Why would it be surprising that Tulsi Gabbard is sharing Islamaphobic tweets when her campaign has been largely funded by Hindutva? Does no one pay an iota of attention these days?!

Sometimes I wish I weren't so well informed but as a News Junkie, I can't help it. I appreciate your post @Taoboi. On another note, Channel4 has uploaded their news piece to their Youtube page.

Any channels owned by Sinclair Broadcast media is a hard pass for me. Perhaps I'll check scores and clips to keep up but I can't support any media entity that traffics. in right-wing propaganda and makes their news anchors read on-air oaths.

Apparently, she received no money...she volunteered. She didn't even get her 30 pieces of silver.

From what I understand, tournament directors tailor court assignments more for ticket buyers than for television viewers. RG hasn't been as much of a priority on American television since leaving network. The FFT likely gets more money from its own country than it does from the U.S. which has a somewhat diminished presence these days compared to what it used to be. Regional Fox Sports network doesn't have the type of influence 💰that NBC once did. Eurosport likely has more influence than Fox Sports now and French players are still exceedingly popular, even Chardy, lol, whose wedding and baby's birth photos were all over European sports news blogs.

From their perspective, the spectators who show up will likely be local people, due to travel restrictions, so I can't really quibble about that. RG is clearly trying to cater to the French spectators whose butts will be in the seats. Also, the French, perhaps more than any other nation, truly have a strong affinity for their hometown players. Personally, I don't know how much of my attention this tournament will get. The U.S. Open got a fraction of my attention, compared to what it usually gets. Osaka's masked march to the title was one of the only aspects that held my attention.

People are asking to hear more from her, certainly more than what a thirty second clip will provide. I'm not sure how much touring she was doing before COVID-19, tbh since she seemed to be in far less demand than even her brother BeBe.

Primetime Soaps
You know, I had never seen this show? I watched very little T.V. during most of the 90s. I finally watched a few episodes and this show is a hoot! I'm enjoying it. I do have this unsettling feeling, though that someone at ATWT (*coughs* Goutman) may have looked at Scott Bryce's Malibu Road character and decided that this was how they wanted Craig to be about seven, eight years later.😳😟

Not only that but there are different balls for men and different balls for women. If you think about the four Grand Slams alone, each has a different climate, three of four have different surfaces, the balls shouldn't be exactly the same. One of mt biggest concerns and pet peeves is the deliberate slowing of the courts over the last decade-- that and the balls has caused an alarm number of seemingly chronic injuries, and the elbow seems to be chief among these injuries in recent years.

Cannot say that I am surprised but certainly disgusted at the predictability of the systems in this country. It's also such a drain on one's existence.- ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?
Shadow and Act, the Black entertainment blog named a list actresses that they believe to be underrated and deserve "their flowers" and Debbie Morgan and Tamara Tunie are both on the list.
