Equal-Opportunity Meddling

I had plans yesterday to watch some of the NCAA women's basketball tournament with my straight friend Mary. When I arrived at her condo, a woman I didn't know was seated in front of the TV. As Mary introduced us, it took me one second to absorb that this woman was a lesbian.
I can't say whether my friend was engaged in calculated matchmaking, but when I departed several hours later, Mary whispered to me at the door, "She's cute, isn't she?"
Being set up has never worked well for me. However, as I drove home I decided it's a sign of progress that these days our straight friends are as hot to make a mess of our love lives as our queer friends.

Faith & Freedom, the prominent evangelical advocacy group, plans to spend $62 million to return Donald Trump to the presidency.
Politico notes, "The investment underscores the degree to which the white evangelical community has allied itself with Trump, even as he faces a forthcoming trial on charges stemming from hush money payments to a porn actress."
Faith & Freedom will be laying out $10 million more than it did four years ago. But that's not really surprising. Inflation has raised the price of everything—including hypocrisy.

The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they’re okay, then it’s you.
