Sunday Overnight Open Thread (3/31/24) Happy Easter Edition

Quote I

The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Matthew 28:5-6 NIV

Quote II

“We have a ship that has nearly the size of the Eiffel Tower that is now stuck within the channel that has the Key Bridge sitting on top of it,” Governor of Maryland Wes Moore (D)

Quote III

“There’s probably the rebel part of me that enjoys the, ‘Sir, you’re not supposed to smoke here…’ ‘Yeah, I know!’” he added. “It’s an expression of freedom for myself. It’s not for everybody, and that’s fine. It’s just a connection I enjoy with some people.” James Hetfield

Election year. Sure there is Trump vs. MushHead. There will be abortion initiatives on the ballots. Do the Republicans wish to take on the legal CBD industry at this time?

In 2018, Republicans accidentally legalized cannabis. Now 22 AGs want them to undo it

A coalition of 22 state attorneys general is calling on Congress to address “the glaring vagueness” that has led to legal cannabis products being sold over the counter across the country — including sometimes from vending machines or online.

A letter dated March 20 addresses the consequences of Republican lawmakers’ choice to legalize hemp production in the 2018 omnibus Farm Bill — a decision that perhaps inadvertently led to a multibillion-dollar market in intoxicating cannabis products that are arguably federally legal.

Now, the attorneys general want Congress to shutter the market it helped create. In the new Farm Bill, they want the legislature to enshrine in statute the idea that intoxicating cannabis is not federally legal — contrary to what the law currently states.

In other words, they want Congress to say that, by definition, hemp can’t get you high.

Unfortunately, we all shop at Bidenmart. Where the prices keep going up and up and up and up.

Would you have said, "Rules are rules" or "Let's see how we can work this out like adults"?

North Texas woman upset after her car was towed from apartment spot that she pays for

MESQUITE, Texas - FOX 4 reported last week that the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation plans to discuss how to better regulate the tow truck industry after many have shared stories about losing their cars to a tow after making a simple typo when they registered for a space.

Wednesday, a woman told us her story of getting towed from her own apartment space that she pays for.

To be honest, it really would depend on what kind of mood I was in.

Holy week just had to conclude with utter contempt and hate for Christians. [11] Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. [12] Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

The Biden administration reiterated its observance of the Transgender Day of Visibility on Sunday, despite criticism from Republicans about the day falling on Easter Sunday.

Multiple members of Biden’s White House, including himself, recognized the holiday through posts on social media. Biden announced on Friday that Sunday would be recognized as Transgender Day of Visibility, a day of observance that has occurred since 2009 on March 31 each year.

This year, however, Easter Sunday also fell on March 31, prompting an outcry from Republicans that Biden was “canceling” the religious holiday.

“The Biden White House has betrayed the central tenet of Easter — which is the resurrection of Jesus Christ,” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said on X. “Banning sacred truth and tradition—while at the same time proclaiming Easter Sunday as “Transgender Day”—is outrageous and abhorrent. The American people are taking note.”

Despite the backlash, Biden and other members of his administration moved forward with embracing the holiday.

“On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate the joy, strength, and absolute courage of some of the bravest people I know,” Biden posted on X on Sunday. “Today, we show millions of transgender and nonbinary Americans that we see them, they belong, and they should be treated with dignity and respect.”

Just once I wish they would celebrate their Perversion Holidays on a Muslim Holy Day. Imagine the backlash if perversion was celebrated on the Day of Arafah?

The FBI doesn't have enough to do with hordes of illegals at the border, political families grifting the night away and Russian hookers who pee on the bed. They have to bother people who express themselves on Facebook.

Industrial espionage in the sex toy world? Yes indeed.

MARCH 25--A manufacturer of “fantasy-themed sex toys” has accused an upstart Brooklyn, New York firm of knocking off its distinctive designs, according to a federal lawsuit alleging that the defendant has infringed on copyrights for dildos such as “Spritz the Seadragon” and “Tyson the Water Buffalo.”

In a March 20 complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Arizona, Bad Dragon Enterprises contended that its “sculptural” products have been illegally copied by SinSaint, which is headquartered in a Coney Island warehouse and advertises that all its “Ethically Manufactured” toys are “made in Brooklyn, USA.”

Bad Dragon, which noted that it has had “significant commercial success” in the adult toy field, alleged that SinSaint has been selling the duplicative dildos through its website and other trade channels, including the recent AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas (where the new firm’s exhibitor booth was next to that of the all-nude Palomino strip club).

The lawsuit identifies 13 separate dildos that Bad Dragon claims have been copied (and renamed) by SinSaint, which was incorporated in New York last year. The colorful silicone toys feature scales, tentacles, suction cups, and other design elements meant to mimic the genitalia of dragons, sea creatures, and other fantastical character
