Very cool. One can be both lesbian and trans. There are some gay trans men, too. Thank God for that! (Most trans men are straight, though) Edited April 2, 2022 by Unicorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samhexum Posted June 9, 2022 Author Share Posted June 9, 2022 “Jeopardy!” fans on Long Island were shocked to see an incorrect Nassau County village’s name listed in a question during last Friday’s episode, sparking outrage from a local legislator, Long Island Press reported. The question read: “Type of institution that has a ‘row’ in Garden City on Long Island, including one about firefighting and a children’s one,” prompting the undisputed answer of “museum.” But the referred-to row — consisting of the Long Island Children’s Museum, Cradle of Aviation Museum and Nassau County Firefighters Museum and Education Center — is actually located a smidgen east of Garden City in the hamlet Uniondale. And Nassau County legislator Siela Bynoe of nearby Uniondale and surrounding areas is making sure that the show — along with its viewers — won’t forget it. She penned a letter to “Jeopardy!” executive producer Michael Davies explaining the show’s miss — one which listed a ritzy suburb in lieu of the actual working-class nabe, according to LI Press. The borders between Uniondale, Garden City and neighboring Hempstead can be confusing even to locals because of their zig-zagging nature — especially near Museum Row, one located on the former runways of Mitchel Air Force Base. This wasn’t the first time a Uniondale staple made its way onto “Jeopardy!” — nor was it the first time the neighborhood suffered at the hands of an on-air gaffe. The New York Islanders, who played over four decades at the nearby Nassau “Fort Neverlose” Coliseum, were the correct response to an $800 question under the category of “hockey” several years ago. When the late host Alex Trebek gave the clue “Bryan Trottier sparked this team to 4 Stanley Cup Championships from 1980 through 1983,” current host and former contestant Ken Jennings erroneously responded with the New York Rangers. I went to some boring thing several years back with my sister & her family at the aviation museum, and it was so wonderful that I don't have the slightest recollection of what it was.

samhexum Posted November 15, 2022 Author Share Posted November 15, 2022 WORST. CLUE. EVER! Fans have slammed a clue that appeared on “Celebrity Jeopardy!” calling it “tasteless” and “insensitive.” The clue — asked to actors John Michael Higgins, Wil Wheaton and Joel Kim Booster — was featured on Sunday night’s episode, in the category where all responses contained the letter “A.” The question read “In 2021, fugitive Brian Laundrie ended his days in Fla’s Myakkahatchee Creek area, home to these long & toothy critters.” The answer was “What are alligators” — and fans were critical of the show’s decision to mention Laundrie in the clue. Laundrie, 23, confessed to killing his 22-year-old girlfriend Gabby Petito while the couple were traveling across the country in a van. Laundrie’s remains were discovered a month later in the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park on Oct. 20, 2021. “Jeopardy!” fans were horrified at the mention of Laundrie, furiously tweeting about the clue. This is almost as appalling as KFC in Germany bot-tweeting about Kristallnacht. https://nypost.com/2022/11/14/jeopardy-slammed-for-insensitive-and-appalling-clue/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
