No one does horror like the folks at the Onion back in the day doing Clickhole

“You never know true beauty until you see Earth from space, or true terror until you hear someone knocking on the space station door from outside. You look through the porthole and see an astronaut, but all your crew is inside and accounted for. You use the comm to ask who it is and he says he’s Ramirez returning from a repair mission, but Ramirez is sitting right next to you in the command module and he’s just as confused as you are. When you tell the guy this over the radio he starts banging on the door louder and harder, begging you to let him in, saying he’s the real Ramirez. Meanwhile, the Ramirez inside with you is pleading to keep the airlock shut. It really puts life on Earth into perspective.”

I checked, it is real, it is thousands of words long, and the only mention of trans people is two times when they mention that some cis women take dosage levels comparable to what trans men do

There's sections about dysphoria cis women may feel from side effects of testosterone. I am LOSING MY MIND

when trans people take HRT to feel normal: “look at these depraved sex freaks performing their sick fetish in public, we should bully them out of existence”

when cis ppl take HRT so they can fuck real good:

NYT Magazine headline “‘I'm on Fire': Testosterone Is Giving Women Back Their Sex Drive - and Then Some
There is no F.D.A.-approved testosterone product for women. Insurance won't cover it. Many doctors won't prescribe it. It's become a cultural phenomenon.”

#akleg "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

This incoming $25m must be put in context and weighed against the $20m in preventative funding the Trump administration callously cut.

President Trump has approved a federal disaster declaration for Western Alaska. His social media post doesn't answer a crucial q for survivors — is he granting access to Individual Assistance? (But it does recount his election victories in Alaska!) Stay tuned for more ...

Rush Limbaugh helped popularize adding “Nazi” as a suffix to the end of words he didn’t like such as “feminist”. He was the original “everyone I don’t like is a nazi” guy. Republicans have always been giant pussies about that shit

60s: the Nazis were buffoons
70s: the Nazis had provocative symbolism
80s: the Nazis were a warmup for the Commies
90s: anyone you dislike is a Nazi
00s: the Nazis are a good subject for "ironic" jokes
