The rare time I turn on network television in the evening to see how Issue 1 in Ohio turned out. My Lord, is network television basically just The Game Show Channel now?

Constitutional amendment to make it harder to amend the State Constitution.

If it had passed it would have required a 60% majority to change the Constitution rather than 50% as now.

There are credible reasons to do this and apparently a lot (most?) States do but in this case it was a transparently obvious effort to stop an impending pro abortion amendment that will be voted on in November. Consequently, instead of a rational discussion of the merits of requiring 50% or 60% to amend the Constitution we got a proxy fight over abortion. 

It failed roughly 57-43.

Anheuser-Busch to Sell Off Eight Beer, Beverage Brands amid Falling Bud Light Sales. Anheuser-Busch InBev is selling eight beer and beverage brands to cannabis company Tilray Brands, just one month after the beer giant laid off hundreds of its U.S. workers amid a slump in U.S. sales of Bud Light.Last week, Anheuser-Busch reported a drop in sales and profit in the last quarter as it continues to face fallout over Bud Light’s controversial partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

All that to satisfy some bent freaks that don't even patronize their brand

go woke, go broke. that's the saying, right? don't think I've ever seen a company sh!t the bed so hard when it comes to being in tune with their brand and it's relationship to the actual customers who actually go out and buy their crappy product.

Forunately, for AB, a lot of folks don't know all their brands, so they could have shifted from Bud Light to Stella or Land Shark or whatever.

I don't see a way to bring Bud Light back now except a long interval of time.

Disney is finding that out too. Their attendance numbers suck right now.

This can happen when "managers" live in a microcosm of "cultural elite" and don't know their customer, at all.

I dunno. I'm not sure even the most connected person would expect a random trans tiktoker drinking a Bud Light would lead to Kid Rock shooting up his yard and several beer cases.

Might want to choose a different bar to clear there tho...

...because "Kid Rock shooting up his yard and several beer cases" seems like a pretty low one. 

He might do that just for shits'n'grins!
