I'm not American, so I don't know: can one state actually bar an American citizen from being in it?

Usually it's prison, else not really

Aside from that, I find it weird that the governor of a state has repeatedly spoken on behalf of the entire state illegitimately declaring what is and isn't welcomed in the state. In the past, he said something about Florida is where woke goes to die. It's a weird thing to do because the governor is the lead executive of a state government, not the cultural voice of the entire state. As far as I can tell, the state legislature decides who and what is welcomed in a state through laws. Aside from that, the population itself would be its own voice. Am I wrong? Does any other governor do that?

Disclaimer: I don't disagree with the Andrew Tate thing, but I find it weird that a governor is making these statements.

why is andrew tate even relevant, i dont know who he is aside from he hates women

I never figured out why Paris Hilton's sex tape was relevant at the time. Before the sex tape she wasn't a public figure, or a celebrity. She was just daughter to the Hilton hotels founder. So why would anyone treat THIS sex tape like the Pam Anderson/Tommy Lee sex tape? Pam and Tommy were both celebrities BEFORE the tape was leaked. But Paris? Nobody knew who she was.

Or the same thing with the Kardashians. Nobody knew them before the sex tape. I still don't know why people would care about them.

I guess what I'm asking here, is did tate ever have a sex tape leaked where some guy came all over his face while he was sucking it off? Apperently if you leak that sex tape, even talentless hacks can become celebrities.

Although......fair play to Paris. She's actually quite smart and doesn't deserve to be labeled in the same camp as tate.

Sorry, bud, Florida says you're too rapey even for them

On an unrelated note, does anyone else think that Tristan looks like Romanian Ryan Reynolds?

[–] NoSpotOfGround@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They're not Romanian, they're US-British. They just moved to Romania because they thought police are less likely to investigate sexual assault cases there.

Oh no! Republicans are NOT going to like That!

I guess Ron is mostly upset that they aren't related to their victims.
