Jonathan Majors Arrested in NYC for Allegedly Assaulting a Woman, He Denies Any Wrongdoing
March 25, 2023 4:37 PM PST
Jonathan Majors was arrested early Saturday morning in New York City for allegedly assaulting a woman.
According to police, he was booked on charges of strangulation, assault, and harassment.
His rep denies any wrongdoing.
via TMZ:
We’re told cops responded to a call for service around 11 AM ET near the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan.
We’re told the alleged victim in this case, a female, relayed to police that Majors had gotten into a dispute with her and proceeded to attack her. Their exact relationship is unknown.
Our sources tell us the alleged victim had visible injuries — including a laceration behind her ear, redness and marks to her face. She was taken to an area hospital and is in stable condition. As for Majors … he was cuffed and taken to jail on the spot, as police felt there was enough evidence for probable cause. We’re hearing he is currently out of custody.
Majors is a huge celeb these days — he’s been in everything from Marvel’s latest ‘Ant-Man’ movie to Michael B. Jordan’s ‘Creed III’ flick … and other blockbusters as well over the past couple years. The guy has gotten rave reviews for his performances, and is seen as a rising star. He was even at the Oscars a few weeks ago, and was among the many presenters.
A rep for Majors tells TMZ … “He’s done nothing wrong. We look forward to clearing his name and clearing this up.”
We hope this isn’t true.

"GROOMERS": MAGA parents who sexualize and teach kids to shoot are the real problem
TARA DUBLINMARCH 24, 2023
Every accusation is a confession when it comes to MAGA propaganda, and Donald Trump’s MAGA fanatics constantly prove this point over and over without any help from liberals.
They’ve also been carefully teaching their kids for decades to hate and fear anyone who isn’t a “white Christian nationalist” which essentially translates into “Nazi” with just fewer words.
At the same time, House Republicans have been aggressively scapegoating drag queens as “groomers” while ignoring the presence of credibly accused sex trafficking Florida-man rapist Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and other members of their party who have been arrested for child porn.
The GOP also votes against SNAP and Social Security benefits while trying to destroy public education and attempting to loosen up regulations regarding gun ownership.
Their “New Baby Boom” plan is a thinly disguised plot to create an obedient white army of complacent haters.
How much more proof do you need that MAGA is an evil sex and death cult?
Check this Christmas card photo of Lauren “Squeaky” Boebert (Q-CO via “The Charles Manson Room” at a Boulder condo owned by Ted Cruz) and her four unfortunate sons, one of whom recently impregnated his underage girlfriend.
Granny Bobo is going to be a great-grandma by age 50 if she doesn’t teach the rest of her sons how to use birth control.
And then there’s Marjorie Groomer Taylor Greene, who won’t stop transphobically tweeting about kids’ genitals while letting Gaetz hang out around her three teenagers, two of whom are girls.
Thankfully there’s at least going to be some accountability for two MAGA gun groomers in Michigan.
The parents of Oxford High School mass shooter Ethan Crumbley (oh what a name), who killed four of his fellow students and injured seven others, are being charged with involuntary manslaughter because they bought their underage kid a gun.
The Michigan state appeals court said the mass shooting wouldn’t have happened if the Crummy Crumbleys hadn’t purchased the death weapon gun for Ethan, or if they had taken him home from Oxford High School on the day of the shooting when staff became “alarmed” about his extreme drawings, according to court documents.
The Crumbleys have said they’ll take their case to the Michigan Supreme Court, but I don’t love their odds.
“What a nice family they seem to be!”, said literally no one on Twitter.

OPINION
OPINION: The Super Bowl represents everything wrong about America
VINNIE LONGOBARDOFEBRUARY 12, 2023
Somehow I didn’t get the sports gene — making me a rather atypical American male who doesn’t give a crap about the Super Bowl.
I’d rather read, listen to music, or go bird-watching for some superb owls than watch a bunch of testosterone-laden athletes give each other Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy in order to offer an opportunity for America’s richest advertisers to hawk their wares in between plays.
I know that as a hetero male with no interest in sports, I am in the extreme minority in this country, and many people would find it difficult to relate to me accordingly.
I certainly know that the position I am about to espouse will not be a popular one.
I will state it proudly anyway:
The Super Bowl represents everything that’s wrong with American culture and with American politics in particular.
American football, like any team sport, is based on a divisive, us-vs.-them mentality that pits two groups and their supporters in opposition.
And unlike the sport referred to as football in the rest of the world (it’s called soccer here), no ties or draws are allowed, meaning that only one possible victor is possible in the competition.
In that regard, it’s pretty much exactly like politics — although we rarely witness losers of crucial games go on extended rants claiming that the game was “rigged” and refusing to accept the results.
It’s a sport of winners and losers, mirroring the outcomes of our capitalist economy on its participants.
While many an imagining of utopia envisions a cooperative, competition-free society where everyone looks after their neighbors and values their well-being as much as their own, the reality of human selfishness and the complex tribalism of our planet’s inhabitants means conflict is inevitable.
Does this mean that passionate obsession with team sports must be as well?
The divisiveness and violence inherent in the Super Bowl are indeed representative of some of the worst aspects of American culture, but the commercialization of the event is equally emblematic of our society.
Only the most lucrative enterprises can afford to pony up for a Super Bowl ad, reflecting the economic inequality between wealthy and poverty-stricken families.
Moreover, the ads that these flush corporations run reinforce the notion that money can buy happiness and success.
And how many players, coaches, and fans will invoke their deity today, praying for victory or cursing their misfortune, in a transactional form of spirituality devoid of the golden rule?
Another thing: while politics may be just as competitive a team sport as football, at least the Democrats and Republicans have added a few females to their teams, unlike the NFL.
With the fracturing of the media landscape brought on by the nearly infinite choices now available on the internet, the Super Bowl is one of the last live media events that can attract the type of mass viewing audience that regularly helped shape a common culture back in the days when viewing was restricted to three major TV networks.
It’s a shame that the only nearly universally-viewed programming that exists today is a violent exhibition of conflict, aggression, and extreme jingoism.
If only the one TV broadcast that attracts the biggest audience encouraged cooperation, instead of competition.
Still, it’s foolish not to expect the Super Bowl to reflect the reality of American culture.
But one can dream, can’t they

Likewise with the Heart On My Sleeve Tour. This is the first time I’m getting to perform some of these tracks live.
