Green Room - Week 14 - Day 7
Mar. 21st, 2016 09:26 am![[identity profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/openid.png)
The poll closes tonight! http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/909410.html
so get up off that thing, and vote for your favorites until you feel better!
(I'm pretty sure that's what James Brown *meant* to say!)
***
A "Friend of Idol" (well, a friend of a friend of Idol) has a Kickstarter for an new game: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dirtycops/dirty-cops-a-game-for-scoundrels
It was suggested that I wait until a weekday post to advertise this and that I "say something controversial".
So: #1: "Dirty Cops? Couldn't they have just called this Cops?"
(OK, I've known a lot of really good people who have been police officers. Of course, I've known such absolute scumbags who have also been police officers. But nuanced commentary isn't "controversial". So - ALL COPS ARE DIRTY!!)
#2: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/03/20/university-kansas-professor-keeps-job-after-using-racial-slur-in-class.html
I also found this, from the "other side": https://medium.com/@schumaal/what-follows-is-a-letter-collectively-written-by-the-students-currently-enrolled-in-coms-930-at-the-8f4914d4bbd5#.8ta9e64td
and this one, that seems to be somewhere between the two: http://www.inquisitr.com/2909531/andrea-quenette-found-not-guilty-racism/
