    Florida Republicans Admit They Made a Big Mistake With Anti-Immigrant Law
    https://newrepublic.com/post/173247/florida-republicans-admit-made-big-mistake-anti-immigrant-law
    Florida Republicans passed a bill criminalizing the transport of undocumented people into Florida, requiring hospitals to ask about immigration status on intake forms, invalidating out of state driver’s licenses or other forms of government ID issued to undocumented people, and preventing local governments from issuing identification cards to undocumented people. Now, after sparking backlash among thousands of immigrants (who make up a great deal of Florida’s economy), some Florida Republicans are trying to backpedal and do damage control. On Monday, Representatives Alina Garcia, Rick Roth, and Juan Fernandez Barquin appeared at an event sponsored by Hialeah Mayor Esteban Bovo, also a Republican. The trio, all of whom voted to pass the anti-immigrant bill, clumsily attempted to appeal to the thousands of people their party has alienated. “This bill is 100 percent supposed to scare you,” said Roth. “I’m a farmer, and the farmers are mad as hell. We are losing employees. They’re already starting to move to Georgia and other states. It’s urgent that you talk to all your people and convince them that you have resources, state representatives, and other people that can explain the bill to you,” he added, essentially begging Florida’s labor force to not leave the state that cares little for them. “This is more of a political bill than it is policy. It does give more police state powers going forward to deal with immigration, but still this is mainly a political bill,” Roth concluded incoherently. It’s just politics and messaging, but also it ramps up the police state, but also it’s just all politics. OK.

    PGA Tour, LIV Golf agree to merge in historic end to golf hostilities
    https://sports.yahoo.com/pga-tour-liv-golf-agree-to-merge-in-historic-end-to-golf-hostilities-141044413.html
    In a stunning twist to the saga that has consumed golf for the past year, the PGA Tour, the DP World Tour and LIV Golf, the upstart breakaway tour funded by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, have agreed to merge and create a new entity to unify the tours. The details are still sparse and incomplete, but the fact that the PGA Tour and LIV Golf have agreed to create a new entity after more than a year of acrimony and litigation is significant. The deal was negotiated in such a secretive fashion that not even the PGA Tour's players knew. LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman apparently found out in a phone call just before the announcement was made public.

    Bay Area-founded $2B pizza delivery startup reportedly shuts down
    https://www.sfgate.com/tech/article/zume-pizza-startup-shuts-down-18136126.php
    Hundreds of millions of dollars later, the California startup that tried to disrupt pizza delivery has gone belly up. Zume, which had raised a total of $445 million since its founding in 2015, ceased operations last month and is liquidating its assets, according to a report from The Information. Once based in Mountain View but most recently headquartered in Camarillo, the firm planned to cook pizzas in the back of a massive truck, with robots, while en route to customers’ homes. In 2016, Zume delivered its first pies, and positive reviews rolled in on Yelp. But Bloomberg reported that the company quickly gave up on the cooking-while-driving model — cheese kept sliding around when the truck hit bumps in the road — and started parking in central locations to send out typical deliveries. Nevertheless, investors were intrigued — particularly SoftBank’s Masayoshi Son, famous for the $100 billion “Vision Fund” that dumped $4.4 billion into WeWork. Bloomberg reported that Zume CEO Alex Garden was projecting hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue and talking about becoming the “Tesla of fresh food, and the Amazon of fresh food,” trying to get Son to invest. In 2018, SoftBank poured $375 million into the company, according to Pitchbook, valuing the startup, still with a relatively untested product, at around $2.25 billion. The money didn’t last. Zume had employees jump from project to project, including a monthslong push to build a sensor that would monitor the heat of food as it was delivered, Bloomberg reported. The firm burned through cash without bringing in much revenue (less than $1 million in 2019, according to Bloomberg), and at the beginning of 2020, Zume quit the pizza game, laid off half of its staff and pivoted into engineering sustainable packaging.

    Many bad things Congress does are bipartisan, but threatening to tank the economy in order to gut the liberal state is almost entirely Republican cruelty. Our media should explicitly say so.

    Bachelor parties tend to suck so fucking bad, dude.

Except all the ones I've been on which were nice and normal. In their new graphic novel Boys Weekend,
