Headlines can sometimes be misleading.  Like this one: “Massachusetts Teachers Union Plans Drag Show at Conference Next Month”.  Not that there’s anything wrong with it, but it makes it sound like a random drag show is popping up at a teaching event.  In fact, the “conference” in question is their first LGBTQ+ Conference, where the theme is “Celebrating All with Pride”.  “Programming includes sessions on workplace safety, intersectionality, support for transgender students, and advocacy/lobbying training.”  The drag show in question is being presented by Mz. Clementine KuLayd and takes place on November 13^th – if you’re in the neighborhood.

Then there was this headline: “Todd Chrisley Became Escort at 18 After Working  at Cheesecake Factory”.  I expected some grand revelation, a sordid story about a businessman paying to have a bit of Todd with extra whipped cream.  But here’s what Chrisley said on the Dumb Blonde podcast: “I was 18 and I ended up waiting on this table of women, and I got an $800 tip.”  After his shift, he spied a limousine outside.  The chauffeur walked over to Todd and said, “My lady would like to speak with you, you were their server this evening.”  She lowered the back window and said, “Great service tonight…where are you heading?”  He told her, and she said, “Get in, I’ll drop you off.”  Todd finishes the story by saying, “Well, she didn’t drop me off.  Let’s just say that it turned into a very quick encounter that I’m thinking as the sunroof was open, ‘I’m banging this woman as we’re driving through LA.  This is every dream I’ve ever had.’”  It sounds more like a dream he had and less like anything real that he experienced.  I’m sorry, I just don’t buy it.  BTW, he told this whole story while his gleeful “wife” was sitting there.
