Former Actress and Current Millionaire Alyssa Milano Sets Up a GoFundMe to... Pay For Her Son's Baseball Team to Go On a Trip to Cooperstown
God forbid that she should have to use some of her Who's the Boss? residuals to pay for her f***ing kid's trip. No, of course not. Just bleg from your twitter fans.She's raised $8,000. GoFundMe has no problem with this. On the other hand, there's Kurt Russell.
Actress Alyssa Milano is responding after angering fans on social media by asking if they could donate to her son's baseball team. A day after her donation request, Milano took to X, formerly Twitter, to share that she had gotten a lot of "media inquiries about whether [she has] financially contributed to [her] son's baseball team." ...
"My son's baseball team is raising money for their Cooperstown trip," Milano wrote on X Thursday. "Any amount would be so greatly appreciated." She also shared more information on how to access the GoFundMe page. Social media users were confused why Milano was asking her followers for money, when she is a multimillionaire. Milano starred on the hit drama "Charmed" for six seasons, and Bugliari is the co-head of motion picture talent at the management firm Creative Artists Agency. Many were left wondering "why isn't Alyssa Milano paying for the trip for the whole team herself," while others were questioning why the actress is "asking for money from people who can barely buy groceries."
"Alyssa Milano has absolutely lost her mind. How out-of-touch and tone deaf can one person possibly be," one user wrote. "Just a reminder: Alyssa Milano and her husband are both multi-millionaires," another commented. "They could pay for the entire trip for the whole team without batting an eye!"
The short version of Kurt Russell on gun control is basically "you’ll take it from my cold, dead hands buddy".

@SenatorRennick
The South Australian Employment Tribunal has ruled that employers are responsible for compensating employees who acquire vaccine injuries from work directives.
This is a significant precedent as employers are now going to think twice about forcing people to get a vaccine if they have to fork out for potentially significant medical costs if the employee then incurs a vaccine injury.

I bought a pink sparkly mesh one in fall 2020 because I was going to a wedding and the venue required a mask (which we didn't wear once we got in). It was perfect because it let me breathe. Funny thing was, the top review on Amazon when I bought it was from our very own Ladyl,
I wore that mask any time I needed to wear one, and I got compliments on it every. single. time. And no one ever said anything about how ineffectual it was.

All I can say is, if you like to play music, don't do it for money and if you do, be prepared to kill everyone within your reach for fucking you over. It explains a great deal about why Chuck Berry insisted on being paid in cash, in advance before he opened his guitar case.

no but they probably still wanted that family to pay for the whole trip
this happens
I remember ages ago we had one semi-famous and pretty damn rich hyper involved dad and the group significantly pressured him to hire a private jet and take care of the entirety of a far-away (ish, it was in Virginia I think) tournament to show off our little all-star team we had. and he did it!
we got him to cover a whole lot of stuff and no way was he worth 10 mil. right now he's getting pressured to pay for families to go to Paris this summer ...

After he grew out of kid roles, he worked in Disney films like The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes. That should have killed his career stone dead. Instead he went off to play pro baseball (minor league?) for a while, then came roaring back, playing Elvis not long after the latter's death in a biopic TV-movie. Then came his big roles of the Eighties.
I hope he'll write a real tell-all book about his life before he goes.

I've no doubt she thinks that.

And parents love to brag about how much they're doing for their kids. 90% of all toy and kids' fads have nothing to do with the kids and are just parents wanting to show off.

Yup. But there are probably a bunch of kids on that team who are from families who are only paper-rich - overextended parents living on the razor's edge in the tony neighborhood with three car loans and various other debts up to their eyeballs. Adding a major cross-country sports trip at the last minute is probably very difficult for at least of the families involved.
But it would be unkind to mention to them that they can't really afford it, and to offer to subsidize them. It would be even worse for them to go to the other parents - parents like Milano - and ask for their help. After all, they themselves are rich, right? Nobody wants to out himself as faking it.
So this is a nice way to bypass the problem: do a fundraiser and then nobody has to embarrassed or unkind. It's all just magically paid for and the status quo is maintained.
Just a guess.

We may be having to drag those dang things out again. I was at the ER with my dad last week and masks were mandatory once again. I don't think they'd allow the pink sparkly one but I do have a thin cotton one I made that is a dark pattern so they can't see through it, with adjustable ear straps so I can wear it loose enough to breathe. I dug it up and put it back in my purse in case I have to go anywhere medical again.

I thought it was the kind of race-baiting, race-hating horseshit that makes the country and its culture worse off, all for a story that was lackluster. Maybe I could take the racial provocations better if they weren't coming from a writer/director with the emotional maturity of a fourteen-year-old who seems to revel in characters who say n*gger all the time the way GRR Martin seems to delight in involuntary sex. Best I can say for it is that at least it didn't suck as hard as Kill Bill.

Probably from getting beaned by pitchers. We have a friend who pitched for an Orioles farm team at a time when the Orioles dugout was full of all-star pitchers. When they played Russell's team, our friend was pitching and the manager told him to hit him. Our pal didn't want to do it but he did what he was told to do.
After the game he went up to Russell and apologized. Russell got this huge grin and said hey, don't worry about it, this happens every game.

I once heard Russell tell a story from his youth. He was skateboarding around the lot when an executive yelled at him to stop. Russell told Charles Bronson, who was making a movie at the same time on the same lot, who went up to the executive's office with Russell and the skateboard and said, "You see this kid? He gets to skateboard."

That fare card then allowed them to determine that the person got off at a Metro stop in Northern Virginia, where surveillance footage showed the person entering a car. Both the car and the fare card were in the name of the same person — a retired Air Force chief master sergeant who was now working as a contractor with a security clearance, they said.
Seraphin and his team were assigned to stake out the person’s row house for days, but the FBI blocked his request to interview the person, he said. Then they were called off the target completely and told to pore through low-priority leads about minor January 6 participants, he said.

I'm no big fan of his directing, no, but he impressed me (read: creeped me the hell out) with his performance as George Clooney's pedo brother in From Dusk Till Dawn. And I've read that he did very well in the Broadway revival of Wait Until Dark w/ Marisa Tomei -- he played the chief villain, the role Alan Arkin made famous in '67. (And which Robert Duvall played before him on Broadway)

Yeah, those were cartoon-level gore films. If the movies never left the storyboard and went straight to comicbook print, it would've fit perfectly. Not saying it's good or bad film, just that it was more an art film than a story film.
