Thomas Bowdler, Political Correctness and Scrabble. Top Story - February 2022.
Our son came to visit back in 2018 and, as is our wont, we played many a game of Scrabble together. We play open book with a dictionary at hand, The Official Scrabble Player's Dictionary. I have an old, slightly battered Second Edition which came out in 1993. My son thought this was a bit outdated and surprised me with a gift of the latest Sixth Edition which includes many new words including emoji, facepalm, bitcoin and listicle. One of the current controversies is over the addition of "ok". Scrabble rules don't permit capital letters or proper names. The word used to be spelled OK but the spelling has been liberalized in recent years to permit ok in lower case. This is anathema to conservative purists but a boon to more liberal players who always are on the lookout for new two letter words.

5 Social Issues George Carlin Made Relevant
“In America, anyone can become president. That’s the problem.” George Carlin was ahead of his time. Being woke, leading the charge in cancel culture, fighting censorship, and supporting those who are vulnerable and don’t have a voice. Going after racists, sexists, fascists, and aiming to bring those who try to restrict freedom to justice. These current events and social issues that are relevant today were being fought before people like Greta Thunberg, Malala, David Hogg, and AOC were even born.
