What Nashville shooter?

Expect this story to be memory-holed in 3... 2... 1...

The shooter was a member of the protected class. 
The pronouns on her Linked-In page are He/Him

And, of course, there seems to be a manifesto.

Following CNN down the drain - NPR

| No Comments

Could not be happening to a nicer bunch of propagandists.

Used to listen to them a lot 20 years ago but their hectoring and bias is unlistenable today.
They are playing to a very small minority - biting the hand that used to feed them.

From The Washington Post:

NPR cancels 4 podcasts in biggest wave of layoffs in decades
NPR said it would stop production on a series of podcasts, including “Invisibilia,” an early hit, as part of a broad cutback it signaled was coming last month.

Faced with a projected $30 million decline in revenue, the Washington-based audio and digital-news organization began laying off about 100 employees, or 10 percent of its staff, this week — among the largest reductions in its 53-year history. Managers have set aside three days this week to notify those affected across a number of departments; Thursday was the newsroom’s turn to get the bad news.

The programming cutbacks disclosed Thursday appear to reflect NPR’s decision to protect its core news programs that remain highly popular on its national network of public-radio affiliates, including its two daily newsmagazines, “Morning Edition” and “All Things Considered.”

Good - maybe their management will wake up to the fact that they are pandering to 5% of the US population.
Time to reassess their mission...

Get WOKE, etc. etc. etc. - SVB crash

| No Comments

An interesting look from The New York Post:

While Silicon Valley Bank collapsed, top executive pushed ‘woke’ programs
A head of risk management at Silicon Valley Bank spent considerable time spearheading multiple “woke” LGBTQ+ programs, including a “safe space” for coming out stories, as the firm catapulted toward collapse.

Jay Ersapah, the boss of Financial Risk Management at SVB’s UK branch, launched initiatives such as the company’s first month-long Pride campaign and a new blog emphasizing mental health awareness for LGBTQ+ youth.

“The phrase ‘you can’t be what you can’t see’ resonates with me,’” Ersapah was quoted as saying on the company website.

“As a queer person of color and a first-generation immigrant from a working-class background, there were not many role models for me to ‘see’ growing up.”

Her efforts as the company’s European LGBTQIA+ Employee Resource Group co-chair earned her a spot on SVB’s “outstanding LGBT+ Role Model Lists 2022,” a list shared in a company post just four months before the bank was shut down by federal authorities over liquidity fears.

It is all well and good to pander to the current "protected class" but you need to remember that you are in business to make money.  Not make people feel good and to cater to their narcissism. I wonder if it will ever dawn on her what she did.

Now this looks good: SISU

| No Comments

From the Finish:

Sisu is a Finnish word that cannot be translated metaphrastically into the English language, loosely translated to mean stoic determination, bravery, guts, resilience, perseverance and hardiness, expressing the historic self-identified Finnish national character.

Sisu is about taking action against the odds and displaying courage and resoluteness in the face of adversity. Deciding on a course of action and then sticking to that decision against repeated failures is Sisu. It is similar to equanimity, with the addition of a grim quality of stress management. The pertaining adjective is sisukas, "having the quality of Sisu".

The trailer:

The same director (Jalmari Helander) also did Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale - got that one coming from my local library.  Looks great. Trailer for that one:
