Olympic Gold Medal Swimmer Participated in Capitol Riot: Report

quote:

An Olympic gold medalist was among the crowd that stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, according to swimming news website SwimSwam. Klete Keller, 38, won three gold medals as part of the U.S. men’s swimming team. He represented the U.S.—the same country whose democracy he was protesting against last week—at the 2000, 2004, and 2008 Olympics, swimming on a relay team that included Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte. Keller was wearing his Team USA Olympic jacket and was unmasked, allowing teammates to recognize him, according to SwimSwam.

I did not know that was a thing that people do. I thought it was mostly dogs who tear up shoes.

Cutting up shoes would be one thing, but if you can literally tear up shoes like with your hands then I am scared of you.

I once got gold glitter dumped in my hair during a school dance on December 17.

I was still washing glitter out of my loving hair on New Year's Day. That poo poo is tenacious.

I was hospitalized in the SICU a few years back and the woman in the next room was in for a massive vajazzling-related infection. Glitter can be tenacious.

No schad involved but there was also that girl who full-on lost an eye because of glitter.

He @ed the company and the NHL team into the thread and people are already making GBS threads up the company's tweets with angry comments so we'll doubtless hear their side of the story soon, I'm fully expecting that the angry chuds may have left out a few pertinent details in their side of the story.


Also LOL at the tweeters yelling "You will never receive my business now!!" at a prestige private jet service which they could almost definitely never afford anyway

E: screenshots in case they get deleted



E: also there's a highly suspicious complete lack of tweets from that dude between September and January 12, I guess he suddenly deleted a whole bunch of stuff for some reason???

Also, it was funny seeing people try to say it was illegal for him to be fired for that reason. IIRC, it is illegal to fire someone for political affiliation, but they fired him for his choice of prior employment (which is legally distinct).

It’s legal to fire someone for political affiliation in most states.

Nothing to see here. Move along.

Depending on where he lives they might not even NEED a reason to fire him. A Republican political operative getting hosed over by Right to Work would be some amazing schadenfreude.

Shad's on me too I guess. I think they got me for 3 years of this after we stopped getting DVDs. Was positive that we'd cancelled that part of our plan and had literally zero reason to look at our plan from then until until a round of belt tightening meant reducing our streaming subscriptions. Makes me wonder how many other people are in the same boat...

Not me, I just got one in the mail yesterday. Been a happy subscriber since April of 2000, although I'm on the 2 discs a month plan which is plenty. And even then half the time when I watch something recent, it turns up free on HBO a week later. So why keep it? Because my friend and I long ago maxed out the queue at 500 discs, and we're only down to about 450 now, and a lot of those aren't available to stream anywhere yet.

Or wasn't informed. Really the only person that will suffer any consequences is the delivery driver since the recipient will just get it refunded

Lesbian teen who got kicked out by family turns them in as possible MAGA rioters

quote:

“hi mom remember the time you told me I shouldn’t go to BLM protests bc they could get violent…this you?” Helena wrote in a later tweet.

The teen said that her family members have been contacting her to remove their names from her tweets.

“We are not proud of how things went in DC,” her aunt wrote in a text. “I know you are upset but putting us in danger isn’t going to solve anything. Please … I am Begging you to remove.”

But Helena said that she doesn’t believe she did anything wrong.

“I always felt almost heartbroken over how they viewed the world and how skewed it was and how they wouldn’t allow me to express my views. But showing that they can act in such a horrible way is just really appalling to me,” she said. “I am honestly very disappointed to have to be part of this family that is so…just, very not welcoming or supportive. I don’t feel safe being part of this family.”
