Stephen Quinn is an actual ABC 33/40 anchor and that’s his actual twitter account. Thanks to Elon for making those things more difficult to verify. It’s on national news too.
They just announced that we’re hosting Charlotte Independence (MLS) team in the next round of the US Open Cup. Only 16 teams left. Birmingham and Pittsburgh are the only USL teams still in it. Match will be either the 23rd or 24th, will announce in the coming days. Kinda of a big deal.

Bill HB441, sponsored by Rep. Ben Robbins, R-Sylacauga, aims to require pornography distributors to take “reasonable measures” to ensure their content is viewed by people 18 years old and older. This would be done through identification verification maintained by the companies, where identification like a driver’s license or credit card can be used to confirm age. However, the bill states that the companies would not retain any identifying information provided to them. “Pornography is a public health crisis leading to a broad spectrum of individual and public health impacts and societal harms,” the bill states. “This state has a compelling governmental interest to take action, and this act serves as the most narrowly tailored approach to prevent pornography exposure and addiction to children and to educate individuals and families concerning its very serious harms.” https://www.cbs42.com/digital-exclu...line-to-prove-they-are-at-least-18-years-old/
