Aren't liberals supposed to be the snowflakes?

Police were called to a restaurant in Texas over the weekend over an anti-Trump t-shirt being worn by a customer.


While dining at the First Watch Cafe, Garland resident Andy Ternay had his lunch interrupted when fellow patrons, horrified at his choice of shirt, called the cops and attempted to have him removed from the restaurant. Ternay was not breaking any laws, but evidently Ternay's neighbors were so offended by his shirt that they felt they had no choice but to involve the authorities.

The front of the shirt read: ""FUCK TRUMP AND FUCK YOU FOR VOTING FOR HIM." The back read: "FUCK THE RACIST ALT-RIGHT". "I. Want. This. Shirt." tweeted Mr Mxyzptlk.

"First, we were approached by a manager who let us know that customers were very distressed by my shirt and that children might see it," Ternay told The Daily Beast. "I expressed deep sympathies and let her know that explaining 'grab 'em by the pussy' and golden showers to my daughter was equally unpleasant."

He has a point. But customers were not happy, allegedly "suffering due to my indescribable poor taste," Ternay said. It was Ternay's response to police officers, however, that makes this case so special. An officer approached Ternay in the parking lot, in an exchange ending in Ternay shutting down the whole incident.

"I stop the car and ask the officer if she is there over a t-shirt," Ternay wrote. "She affirms this to be true and asks my name which I respectfully decline to give; she starts in on the shirt—whereupon I cite Cohen v. California, 1971, in which the Supreme Court upheld the right to wear a t-shirt saying: 'FUCK THE DRAFT.' She's like: 'Just leave, okay?'"

The event sparked some feedback on Twitter. "This seems rather mild considering the things that Trump has been quoted as saying..." tweeted Samuel Wynn Warde.

Making this story even more juicy, Ternay's server was black, and subsequently quit his job because of the incident. "You should hear these people asking not to be seated near Muslims," he told Ternay. Ternay explained that since the incident, he has received countless messages from victims of discrimination. "I have gotten heartbreaking messages from African Americans saying they have lost faith in their white neighbors—they are no longer confident their neighbors have their back," he told The Daily Beast. "My shirt was a reassurance they are not alone."

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
