Speaking of reboots I think Cavill is going to be in the new Highlander reboot so that's something to look forward to perhaps.

This just in, Henry Cavill has been dropped as Superman by James Gunn. Guess Cavill was just too based for them after all.



Apparently, Gunn is planning to make Smallville 2.0 with a young Clark Kent.


Gives him more time to work on the Warhammer 40k show he is doing on Amazon.

Phileadelphia Flyers Defenseman Ivan Provorov boycotted the Hockey Teams Pride Night meant to support the LGBTQIA+ Community by declining to participate in the pregame warmup when his team would be wearing Rainbow Pride uniforms and hockey sticks wrapped in Pride tape. His explanation was as follows: "I respect everybody and I respect everybody’s choices. My choice is to stay true to myself and my religion [Russian Orthodox]. That’s all I’m going to say."

He still participated in the game against Anaheim.


There was much ree'ing on Twitter.

For bonus amusement.



Ivan Provorov is in fact Russian-born and a Russian Citizen AFAIK so the humor and irony here has several layers.

The Phileadelphia Flyers are one of the most socially liberal and activist Hockey franchises in the NHL, having supported transgender/nonbinary hockey nights, virtue signalling how they'll throw out spectators immediately for the use of homophobic slurs and supporting NHL job/career fairs that specifically excluded white "cis"males.

...yes? That's pretty much implied in what Provorov said, Whyshynski.

I'm sorry, I don't know much about being a sports writer, but if this is the typical level of thought for the job, I don't see why we're not giving those with Downs (or any other people with mental disability) jobs in sports writing instead of giving them minimum wage positions in McDonalds, because Whyshynski here clearly shows being a sports writer takes less mental effort than asking some dude if he'd like fries with his order. The Downs kids will probably have better quality writing and reporting as well.

Zachary Levi, star of the television series Chuck and of course portraying Captain Marvel in the Shazam series of DC Cinematic Universe, made some tweets critical of Pfizer... triggering quite the struggle session in the comments and just in general.



He even posted a source! o_O



Zachary Levi has previously identified himself as a Christian and Libertarian. :mad:

Soul Surfer Bethany Hamilton, the surfer who became well known for surviving a shark attack at the age of fourteen which cost her a literal arm, decided to voice her opinion on Professional Surfing Leagues allowing Trans Athletes to compete in Surfing categories that affirms their gender identity and now Trans Activists are trying to cancel her and there is much ree'ing as people remember Bethany Hamilton has always been an outspoken Christian! :eek:

She actually stated she will not compete in the World Surf League anymore if biological males are allowed to compete with females.



She made her opinion known via an Instagram Video and stated that Trans Athletes should compete in their own league instead of competing with Women and Girls. Thankfully some other surfers and athletes have come out to support her.

JK Rowling is apparently taking advantage of the United Kingdom's onerous Laws Against Free Speech to Compel Critics to Publicly Apologize to Her.



Plentiful amounts of anonymous Social Media account are ree'ing, calling her Nazis and worse, but alas... can do nothing but Ree on Twitter, lest they too be forced to publicly grovel an apology before her if geographically blessed to live in the United Kingdom.

Wouldn't apply to her, while she is sane enough to realize that trans ideology is completely nonsensical, she still very clearly doesn't grasp how feminism enabled it in the first place.

Really I suspect she just realizes that it enables men to invade formerly female only spaces, which as a modern, but not progressive feminist, she probably thinks that only male spaces should be disrupted.

Woody Harrelson is literally a Hollywood Stoner Liberal...

But the punchline to his Saturday Night Live monologue... It didn't land with his target demographic. 💀



It might find more resonance with other audiences though...

Seriously? Zachary Levi's name and face both scream "Jewish" to me.

I looked this up. His wiki page actual has a portion where it explicitly says he has zero Jewish ancestry and then a different section that lists what his ancestry is. English/German/Welsh. Trying to put myself in a neutral context, I'd say it's the name. With both names sounding Jewish, and with Hollywood being so prevalent in people of Jewish ancestry, it's a natural assumption. I guess, if you look at his face and try to just guess where his ancestors are from without the name for reference, you'd likely end up with the non-Norse northern Europeans.

More compelled endorsements of the LGBTQIA+ Community being refused by hockey players on another Hockey team, the Floria Panthers.



They are Eric and Marc Staal. Both declined to participate in pregame warmups where they would've been forced to wear PRIDE stylized jerseys for the Florida Panthers 'Pride Night' virtue signalling event due to their Christian beliefs. Eric and Marc are the two oldest of the four Staal Brothers of Canada, all of whom play Hockey at the Professional NHL level.

Some reactions to Dylan Mulvaney, the man crossdressing as a Woman into getting lucrative endorsement deals from Bud Light and Nike.

Champion Collegiate Swimmer Riley Gaines, who was a 12 time NCAA All-American Swimmer and five time SEC Championship Swimmer while attending the University of Kentucky, criticized Nike's $150,000 endorsement deal.

Also Swimmer Nancy Hogshead who won three Gold Medals in the 1984 Summer Olympics similarly criticized the deal, stating it was robbed from a biological woman. Hogshead also founded the Champion Women group whose purpose is to campaign for biological women and girls in sports.

British Olympic Medalist Swimmer Sharron Davies also criticized Nike.


Meanwhile Country Music Star Travis Tritt took to Social Media to criticize Anheuser-Busch for promoting Dylan Mulvaney as their Spokesman.



He even posted a list of Anheuser-Busch brands that he's removing from his tour.

They had to have realized that this was the reaction they were going to get. Look at what happened with Gillette. This is part of why I wonder if it isn't intentional in order to destroy these things.
Some ad-exec probably thought "this'll score us kudos with the woke mob" while forgetting that 14% of the radio stations in the US are country music stations.

The audience for said stations leans heavily right, does not like woke bullshit, and really likes booze. You probably can't listen to a country station for more than 30min without hearing a song mentioning beer unless the station is discussing the agricultural markets and/or the weather.

EDIT: Here's one about beer you're going to hear if you listen to country stations all day:

Charly Arnolt, who was a main roster sportscaster for the WWE (under the name Charly Caruso) and ringside announcer for WWE NXT and worked for ESPN doing Sportscenter Updates, podcasting and appearing on Sportsnation on ESPN+ apparently left ESPN for another sports outlet called Outkick.

She apparently decided to leave the company for Outkick over ESPN's apparently contradiction of its "No politics" policy despite their overt endorsement of transgendered athletes participating in gender divided sports events, including most famously Lia Thomas, the MtF swimmer.

New York Post said:
Asked why she left ESPN, Arnolt said, "I'm a very opinionated person — I always have been. That's something I love about myself and I just felt at ESPN that I was a little bit stifled. There was a lot of conversations and issues that have really just permeated the world of sports and society in general that I wasn't able to speak up about.

"And it made me feel very uncomfortable, because I wasn't true to myself. Then there's a place like OutKick, where the idea of cancel culture doesn't exist. You have someone like Clay Travis who really stands behind everyone who works at the company and says, 'You can say whatever you want as long as you are convicted in what you're saying and you really believe in it you have nothing to worry about.'"

Eight time NBA All Star Dwight Howard, who left the NBA last year to play with a team in Taiwan, the Taoyuan Leopards, apparently trolled multiple "underperforming" NBA stars to play for the National Taiwan Basketball Team.

This includes calling out Jordan Poole, Julius Randle, Klay Thompson, DeAndre Ayton, Chris Paul, Kevin Durant, James Harden,



This comes days after he made a promotional video for the Foreign Ministry of Taiwan where he referred to Taiwan as a COUNTRY.



Dwight Howard did apologize for any offense he might've caused to anyone in China, but the promotional campaign is still ongoing.


Much ree'ing in Chinese social media.
