Grizzly bear with white fur caught on camera in Canada It’s called a polar bear duh Stories of the Week Story 1 Biden: 'If You Don't Let Me Sniff Your Hair, You Ain't A Woman' Summary: In a recent interview with a female reporter, Joe Biden suddenly lashed out, shouting, “Listen, if you don’t let me sniff your hair, you ain’t a woman!” The real story: Speaking to Charlamagne tha God last Friday, Joe Biden said, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.” Biden is not alone among our political class in making wacky statements.

Because of this a judge has ruled the state to be in violation of Science. The real story: Governor Ron DeSantis was getting slammed in the media for a cautious, “lax” approach to the crisis, with people predicting a huge number of deaths in Florida. This disaster never happened. DeSantis focused his approach on the most vulnerable, like nursing homes, while other states like New York locked the elderly in with COVID-19 patients and restricted low-risk populations severely. People criticized him for opening beaches saying doom was sure to follow a few weeks later -- but this did not happen. Florida: 2,200 deaths / 21,000,000 people New York: 23,000 deaths / 19,500,000 people How does Andrew Cuomo do such a bad job managing this thing and get away with it while Florida gets slammed while doing a great job? The politicization of this virus is unfortunate. It doesn’t feel like other national crises we’ve faced where we all band together against the big, bad threat -- it feels like we’re hoping our political foes lose big time no matter the cost in human lives. Story 3 Facebook To Begin Fact-Checking Misleading Avatars Summary: Facebook announced today the social network will now be displaying a fact-check notice atop avatars that are an inaccurate portrayal of the user. The real story: Facebook recently launched customizable avatars similar to Bitmojis and Apple’s Memojis. They tend to look nothing like the people creating them, whether intentionally or not. Ethan is offended that they do not have truly obese options The avatars are very trans-friendly in that you can mix male/female body types, whatever you want. Kyle feels his avatar is fairly accurate though they didn’t have his misaligned tooth or his quarantine neck beard. What’s the deal with avatars anyway? I guess it’s fun to see what you’d look like as some kind of generic mass-produced cartoon. Topic of the Week The Babylon Bee unveiled a new feature: the Worship Song Generator.
