For years I've been a Twitter power user. Which is to say, I've posted multiple times most days, actively engaged with followers and made a conscious effort to increase my reach on the platform.You can now find me on Threads, the Twitter alternative cobbled together by Facebook parent Meta.It's not that I harbor a burning need to buddy up to Metameister Mark Zuckerberg. I don't much care for Facebook and seldom use Instagram.Like many Twitter users, though, I've found the platform increasingly unpleasant since Elon Musk acquired it for an insane $44 billion and proceeded to turn it into a playground for liars and bullies.Twitter is no longer a town square where information and opinions can be safely shared. It's now the internet's Mordor, where a Dark Lord is marshaling orcs and goblins to dominate all of Middle Earth.Which is to say, whatever fun that was once found on the platform is largely gone. Now you're constantly looking over your shoulder to see if trolls are converging on ...Halloween fans can now purchase tickets for Knott's Scary Farm 50th anniversary

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 16:33:15 GMT
SAN JOSE – Touching the breasts and nipples of former San Jose State female athletes while treating shoulder injuries was “completely inappropriate” and had no legitimate medical purpose, an expert witness testified Monday in the trial of the school’s former head athletic trainer.Over and over, as a federal prosecutor recounted last week’s testimony of former female athletes, Dr. Cindy Chang said there wasn’t any medical justification for Scott Shaw to cup the buttocks of a soccer player for back pain, connect groin to groin with a softball player during a hamstring stretch or massage her groin area for a hematoma on her shin. Chang, the former chief medical officer for UC Berkeley’s athletic program, agreed with prosecutors that Shaw never asked the young women for permission to touch sensitive areas, never offered a chaperone to be present, failed to document the treatment and rarely explained why he was touching them that way, like he should have.“It alarms me for the student ath...Latest news
