(Warning: The Following May Be Offensive) Having grown up with too much pornography in the picture, the notion of a lesbian was inevitably associated with extreme sex acts I found repulsive early in my life less so as the porn proliferated and I consumed it. In the religious subculture at the university I went to I remember a woman resembling Rachel Maddow was in the picture... I've learned over the decades that my lesbian friends and acquaintances have stories of being hurt including sexual harm done to them. Child abuse is also a part of their experience including sexual abuse....

Associated Press ^ | January 5, 2023 | Scott Sonner
A high-stakes, yearslong legal battle over a huge lithium mine planned in Nevada resumes Thursday with arguments from lawyers for the mining company, the U.S. agency that approved it and the rancher, tribes and conservationists fighting the project. U.S. District Judge Miranda Du has refused twice over the past year to grant temporary injunctions sought by tribal leaders who say the mine site is on sacred land where their ancestors were massacred by the U.S. Cavalry in 1865. But Thursday’s hearing in her Reno courtroom marks the first on the actual merits of the case and will set the legal...

Change.org ^ | 1st week of October 2021? | "Name Less"
As most of us in our community have heard by now, the Nevada Board of Health unanimously voted to mandate COVID-19 vaccinations for all college students throughout the state. It is required of all students at the University of Nevada, Reno to be fully vaccinated by November 1st, 2021 before students can enroll in the Spring 2022 semester. This means that some current students who have not been vaccinated yet are left with an ultimatum, either be forced into making a health decision they do not feel comfortable with or drop out of school. This decision ultimately hinders the development...

In Las Vegas, more than 400 miles (644 kilometers) south of Reno, Clark County air quality officials issued a smoke advisory for Tuesday.

A big announcement Thursday--one that city and state officials can rightly point to and say our local governments are taking a leadership role in the fight against climate change. The setting for the announcement was a northwest Reno fire station, but, in fact, it could have been at any local government location. The fire station, like city hall, other government buildings, city and county equipment and vehicles all collectively consume a lot of energy. In the face of climate change, there’s added reason these days to try to make sure we consume less and use what we have efficiently. and...

They don't make television comedies like they used to, and few were ever made as brilliantly as "Reno 911." They don’t make television comedies like they used to, and few were ever made as brilliantly as “Reno 911,” the jewel of Comedy Central’s glorious mid-aughts lineup. But it’s back, and better than pretty much every new comedy on air right now, despite clocking in around seven minutes an episode. In these trying times, happiness is an elusive sensation. The unbridled joy I felt one minute into the reboot’s premiere, having realized “Reno 911” is returning to us in fine form,...

The unprecedented global pandemic that knows no borders should be a clear lesson for all of us of how interconnected and interdependent we all are, as a human community, and how small our already frail planet has become in the era of globalization. Diversity & Inclusion would like to salute all of you—administrators, faculty, staff, and of course, our students—for your resilience and strength, whether at the frontlines, physically or virtually, in services and in the classroom. We also want to remind ourselves that as in all human experiences, the pandemic has not impacted all communities equally. Many communities are...
