board at OnlyFans had a cum-to-Jesus moment about what they were doing to their platform, because they've reversed course on banning porn:
Thank you to everyone for making your voices heard. We have secured assurances necessary to support our diverse creator community and have suspended the planned October 1 policy change. OnlyFans stands for inclusion and we will continue to provide a home for all creators.

All he has to do is say that Kurt Cobain was horrified people charged $50-$75 for a concert ticket in 1990, and therefore it sucks his parents got $200 and he himself got zilch for posing for what became one of the all-time most famous album covers ... and wouldn't it be nice if the band threw him 100 grand? Instead, he manufactures this QAnon-ready argument. Ick.
POLITICO: Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Illinois) is one of the least contemptible Republicans in Congress, and yet he (and Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming) voted against the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act like all of his GOP colleagues, so don't cry for him when Illinois Dems wipe out his seat.
