How is this news? Isn’t this a normal, scheduled event at lollapalooza? I haven’t been in a very long time, but… Isn’t this normal?

Iirc, there’s a whole schedule of mud wrestling events

    If the news can run "story about a struggling individual or animal overcoming odds through community support or sheer will, like the sickly squirrel nursed back to health by a man trapped in a collapsed cave."... For the thousandth time...

    Let's just say I would rather watch this every year

    Comparing lesbian mud wrestling to a sickly squirrel is a bit rude, even in the context of “what might best grab headlines”. I know it was a joke, but still…

    Equating people with animals, even indirectly, isn’t nice. It sets the precedent that there is a context where that’s acceptable, when that’s not acceptable in any context.
