Because of the video TJDave posted (naked Dr. Seuss drawings from behind)...fascinating...guess I have to take it down.

Don't want to miss out on the $2 I might make on ads today.
Amazing. I’m famous!

Is there any wonder why the Demos' mascot is a jackass?

I was wondering where Mr. Ed fit in with all this, and there he is!

"Dr. Seuss Enterprises will cease publishing six of the author's books — including And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street and If I Ran the Zoo — saying they "portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong." The books have been criticized for how they depict Asian and Black people.

The decision to stop publishing and licensing the books follows a review by a panel of educators and other experts, according to Dr. Seuss Enterprises, the company that controls the author's books and characters. The other four titles that will be permanently shelved are McElligot's Pool, On Beyond Zebra!, Scrambled Eggs Super! and The Cat's Quizzer.

The company says the decision was made last year, in an effort to support "all children and families with messages of hope, inspiration, inclusion, and friendship."

People do recognize last year was during the Trump administration when the company made this decision.
But they are still selling Mein Kampf

The decision may have been made last year but it was only announced very recently.

YOU do realize that cancel culture has been going on for more than a year, right?

Seriously, what do they teach you social media influencers in Sell Out College?

I must have missed Mr. Ed's transgressions. What did he do to get in that line? Speak English?

He had a “Mister” in front of his name.

I just picked up my son from school and he told me that one of his teachers told the class she does not want to hear anyone refer to a group of people as “you guys”. No more “Hey, what are you guys doing after school?” Or, “What did you guys think of the movie?”. The hamburger joint “Five Guys” will have to change their name but “Five People” just doesn’t sound right.
