Quick Hits: Volume CCCXX

 - Since I no longer serve as Master of Ceremonies for the annual Miss Minnesota pageant, I don't pay near the attention to national/worldwide "beauty pageants" like I used to. 


Looks like I got out just in time. 





The winner was Rikkie Kollé, a trans woman. 





For the record, I vehemently support women who believe that traditionally female endeavors should be exclusive to biological females. On the other hand, I concur with RedState writer Bonchie that if certain women's groups wanna kowtow to the trans ideology (like the other Miss Netherlands contestants who seem unbothered by losing a beauty pageant to a dude), then Godspeed. 

If they don’t care that they just got completely rolled by the abusive giant of transgender ideology, why should I care? Why should I go to bat for people who don’t want me to go to bat for them? It’d be one thing if the women had stood somewhat solemnly or even just politely clapped without the overabundance of physical exertion shown in the video. At least then we could watch it and judge that they are holding back their true thoughts. That’s not what’s in that video, though. Those women are genuinely thrilled that their cumulative decades of hard work have been nullified by a biological man who meets no objective standard of beauty, even putting aside the transgender issue.

There has to be a breaking point. If all of these women, whether they are playing sports or competing in beauty pageants, refuse to reach that breaking point, there’s little the rest of us can do. Every contestant should have stood up and refused to compete. That they didn’t and instead have chosen to prop up this insanity makes them culpable. In other words, I don’t feel sorry for any of them.


I have whiplash from observing how quickly we've gone from the feminist cry of "SMASH THE PATRIARCHY!!!" to "We embrace any patriarchal figure who chooses to erase womanhood."



- Prog celebrity couple Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell hosted a star-studded dinner party recently, of which Ms. Bell took the liberty of photo documenting. 






And as is custom with Woko Haram, there were certain observations made about the guests in attendance. 

I'll save you a click by cuing you in on what was the predominate take. 





You're welcome. 


- Another maniacal driver evading police results in tragic consequences in a Twin Cities suburb. 

A motorist remains in the hospital Monday and under arrest on suspicion of being under the influence of drugs and causing a Robbinsdale crash that killed a minivan driver and severely injured her husband.

The driver who died Saturday night at North Memorial Health was identified by the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office as Emily Gerding, 34, of Crystal, whose vehicle was hit broadside by the suspect's car at the intersection of N. Orchard and 36th avenues following a brief pursuit by police. The Robbinsdale officer called off the chase, but the driver continued at speeds of up to 90 mph before the fatal crash.

Gerding's husband, 34-year-old John Gerding, was taken by ambulance to North Memorial; he was in critical but stable condition Monday morning, said police Capt. John Elder.

Fox 9 News interviewed Emily's mother, who had to emphasize that she and the rest of the family did not share the public's ire towards police who were, y'know, doing their job by attempting to pull over the suspect vehicle. Once again we have a situation (like with the Derrick Thompson incident) where instead of mourning a senseless loss as well as providing prayers and warm wishes to the victims' families, some people feel the need to sway blame from where it squarely belongs (i.e. the driver of the Tesla) by demonizing police. So at the risk of adding to the melee, I'll just leave it at that.

The Gerdings' two young children are now without a mother and it's touch-and-go whether their daddy will survive. As such, a GoFundMe page has been established to help the family with funeral expenses as well as needs for the children. Please check it out here ===> (LINK).
