Because I'm a huge, terminally online history nerd with a vicious streak, it occurred to me last night that Blaire White may have spent the last nine months feverishly Googling "The Night of Long Knives" and I found it morbidly amusing! #GallowsHumor

INBOX: The Minnesota Supreme Court issued a landmark ruling in Cooper v. USA Powerlifting, affirming that transgender athletes have the right to compete in sports without discrimination under the Minnesota Human Rights Act.

Minnesota Supreme Court Affirms Trans Inclusion in Sports in Landmark Decision

ST PAUL, MN – Today, the Minnesota Supreme Court issued a landmark ruling in Cooper v. USA Powerlifting, affirming that transgender athletes have the right to compete in sports without discrimination under the Minnesota Human Rights Act (MHRA). The decision also clarified the harmful precedent set in Goins v. West Group only applies in the employment context, and the court did not consider whether to overturn Goins because Cooper’s case is not an employment case.

“This ruling sends a clear and powerful message: transgender people have a right to enjoy public spaces in Minnesota like sporting events, restaurants, and movie theaters, free from targeted discrimination,” said Jess Braverman, Legal Director at Gender Justice. “This decision is a historic victory for fairness, equity, and the fundamental rights of all Minnesotans.”

This ruling clarifies that all public accommodations in Minnesota, including sports organizations, must ensure their policies comply with Minnesota’s anti-discrimination laws. The implications of this decision extend well beyond sports to other facets of public life. This ruling reinforces the principle that every person deserves equal access to opportunities and spaces where they can thrive and belong.

“While we celebrate this victory, we remain vigilant,” added Braverman. “Across the country, anti-trans legislation and legal battles continue to threaten the rights and freedom of trans people. We will continue to fight for a world where everyone can compete, belong, and thrive without fear of discrimination.”

JayCee Cooper is represented by Gender Justice, Nichols Kaster PLLP, Schlesinger PLLC, and Premo Frank.

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

STEREOGUM: People my age, we talk about how we were lucky that we didn’t have social media growing up, and there’s no record of all the dumb shit we said and did. You didn’t have social media, but everything you said and did in those years is on record, and you’ve got to live with it now. That’s tough.

VIOLENT J: And the amount of gay Juggalos out there is really surprising. I think about them doing their research and getting the old records, getting excited about it, and getting their hearts broke or something, you know? I tell my daughter, “For the rest of your life, when your friends ask why your dad said that, say it’s because your dad was a fool. Don’t defend me. Say I was a fool then, but I’m not now.” There’s no excuse. I was going with the flow, and that’s the very thing we preach against — being a sheep. And that’s what I was doing.

Don't have an ego. Sometimes, people won't laugh at your best stuff, sometimes your worst stuff gets the biggest laugh. Do as many mics as you are comfortable with, and don't consider giving up for at least two or three months. 😀

When Remco released their Universal Monsters action figures, they already felt like a throwback. Today on the Retroist, I take a look at the release history of this too short-lived toy line that brought everyone's favorite monsters to the 3.75 inch scale.
