Billboard’s Affirmative Action Greatest Rock Bands List

The Kinks

Billboard magazine released its 50 Greatest Rock Bands. The list tells us more about the listers than the listed.

The all-female Sleater-Kinney, the all-Mexican Café Tacvba, and the all-black Earth, Wind, and Fire numbered among Billboard’s peculiar “inclusive” inclusions. Even members of Sleater-Kinney, Café Tacvba, and Earth, Wind, and Fire never considered themselves as playing in one of the greatest rock bands ever.

Bill Gates Funds ‘Geoengineering‘ to Dim the Sun

Bill Gates, the Microsoft co-founder reinvented himself as a creepy advocate for climate alarmism and other leftist causes, recently stated that he would support the deployment of artificial “geoengineering” technologies to reduce global temperatures by reflecting the Sun’s radiation if the climate reached a “tipping point.” Just over a month ago, Gates backtracked on climate alarmism by pushing back on what he calls the “doomsday outlook.”

Amy Schumer displays figure after weight loss from Mounjaro

If you visit a fast-food chain in the next few years, expect the menu to look a little less gluttonous.

In between the usual deep-fried options, industry observers anticipate more offerings that come in smaller portions, pack nutrients like protein or fibre and check enough boxes to be considered healthy.

The changes aren’t just a reflection of our growing predilection for snacking or our ongoing quest to trim down our tabs — and waists. They’re also because more people have shrinking appetites triggered by injectable drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro.

Of course there are plenty of other reasons to avoid fast food. Diversity springs to mind.

Brussels Sparks Outrage with Faceless, “Inclusive” Nativity Scene

The installation raised next to the Christmas tree that adorns Brussels’ Grand-Place this year, titled “Fabrics of the Nativity,” has drawn criticism. While it includes the traditional figures of Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus, it replaces classic sacred imagery with life-size dolls dressed in recycled textiles. The figures have no faces, only patchwork patterns in beige and brown. According to organizers, this was meant to create “an inclusive mix of skin tones.” Critics argue it strips the nativity of its spiritual meaning and turns it into a political statement.
