Didn't KSJ talk about it in his own documentary? I remember watching an interview years ago and KSJ seemed to intimate that it was someone connected to the cult that his parents belonged to. I didn't think that the person was in the entertainment industry but I could be wrong. Kristoff has talked about it on camera, even though he didn't name his abuser.

For the past several days I've been wondering how the coronavirus might affect turnout at the polls, especially in places like Washington state. I saw this one earlier. All these trust fund babies and grifters (I'm looking at you, Shaun King) who have hopped on the BernieOrBust bandwagon need to check the skeletons in their dusty closets before they go after someone for doing her job. Aaron's is the worst! One of my siblings bought a RTO television from them and fortunately, he was able to pay it off sooner rather than later (by making more than the minimum payment) but the television ended up as not worth its price as it really didn't last that long.

Didn't the governor of Florida recently declare a state of emergency? I know this is done to activate federal funds but won't this be a factor in whether the Miami Open cancels? Looks like, in accordance with the Spanish government, all tournaments in Spain will be played behind closed doors without spectators. http://rfet.es/noticias/det/La_RFET_notifica_que_todos_los_torneos_deberan_jugarse_a_puerta_cerrada_por_las_medidas_del_Gobierno_frente_al_coronavirus/10227.html#ixzz6GJ5CPTIx

Both candidates are 'basic' to use today's parlance but Bernie has had 4 fu*king years to develop a strategy and has done diddley squat to amend it.

Reading about quite a number of people in their 50s being diagnosed with COVID-19 recently.

Trump making history.

Rather symbolic, don't ya think?

I just heard and damn!

Boy, Mitt Romney must be whistling an upbeat song today. He was banned from attending CPAC. In other news, Everything about this news item, down to the photo, just screams Florida!

Not a surprise.

I feel like something similar also happened in the early/mid '00s with a few players.

Did that emergency meeting not include the WTA players?

Miami is not looking good and I'm not trying to look too far ahead but right now Italy's northern half is all but completely closed off, so Rome looks dicey, at best right now.

This seems harsh. Maybe they'll decide to freeze the points, or something. This is an unprecedented situation.

Tennis skews much older, in terms of demographics. Also, I read that there is a confirmed case a few miles from the venue. Once an area has a confirmed case nearby, it moves to a different phase-- I think it's called community transmission, or something like that.

Such short notice for all the people who had to travel from afar. Also, I heard that points are coming off.

So, Ted Cruz is going to self-quarantine? I'm not going to say what my first thoughts were about this. With Republicans in charge, everything is screwed.

Can't say I'm surprised but still...wow!

Yeah, that's really sloppy work on the Biden campaign. As for how much influence Jackson has, I don't know if I could answer that. So many times, it's been said that social media is not real life. So while it likely rings hollow on a great deal of social media where Jackson seems to have little presence, out in the world of retail politics, who knows? This unlikely to move the needle where anyone under the age of 40 is concerned (which is probably closer to anyone under 45, tbh), we have already seen that many "younger" (under 35) voters haven't really been turning out as some expected. The real question is will voters over 50 be swayed? Another question that I cannot rightly think to answer since it will be a few more years until I hit that milestone age.

Sad that this would never have been considered a realistic possibility. So, is Jackson saying that the underlying reason for endorsing Bernie is because Biden didn't ask? Make of this what you will.

And honestly, I think those are likely the only 2 positions that are prominent enough where (many) folks can actually wrap their mind around the concept of a woman, let alone a black woman being in a presidential leadership position.

And guess who Bouzkova practiced with before the tournament? Konta lost.mp4 Yuck. Glad I missed it. Earlier this week I tried to watch Konta vs. Fernandez and couldn't get through the match. The court is slow as hell and it made me notice, for the first time how unslightly Konta's technique and movement are. Usually I am loathe to call technique ugly (unless it's Gulbis' forehand) because I generally can appreciate unorthodox styles and recognize that if everyone played perfect textbook tennis, it would be boring (at least for me) but this week, I realized what so many people were saying about watching Konta play. It was like watching-

Trump is out here downright scaring and scarring folks' psyches with his high level of incompetence in dealing with the coronavirus. Just the last person you'd want in charge in any crisis.
