Being a woman is expensive. Between the pink tax and the safety tax and the lower earning potential, transitioning was a terrible financial decision. Can't put a price on these curves, though.
Just got a $500 tax bill because apparently I didn't pay enough for my healthcare in 2021. This country is insane.

Got an "F" on my paleontology paper for writing "Satan puts the fossils in the ground to confound the faithful" and now I'm suing the school for religious discrimination.

Voice work, a nice set of tits and being obnoxiously cheery all the time is what gets me treated like a woman. Is that fair? Hell no. When I frown people think I am a man (so does image recognition software). Gender performance is a bullshit game with bullshit rules and, frankly, bullshit prizes.
being a woman is more than just a hormone. sorry. "b-but cis women can just go out in jeans and no makeup and get gendered correctly" because they have a womans voice and a womans gait and a womans way of interacting with the world
you cannot just take estradiol and rot in your room alone gaming, boymoding whenever you do go out. you do have to actively, socially, create yourself as a woman

What our allies in Afghanistan who came over must think of us now. The USA is a terrible ally, a horrid place to live if you have any paperwork at all that the government can use to abuse you.
There aren’t many immigrant groups that faced more vetting.

General Intelligence is a gross concept. Only people who are convinced they have lots of it, whatever it is, want it to exist. It's only purpose for existing is so people who think they're smart have an "ethical" reason to abuse people they think are dumb.

We've been a global society for more than 50 years. There's no "western civilization" it's just our civilization, everyone together, and the more we threaten and destroy each other the more we drive civilization backwards.

Democrats should be an anti-corruption party that deals equally with Republicans and Democrats. They don't want to be because leadership is corrupt.

As regrettable as the "freeze peach" defense is for bad behavior, we need some hardline free speech advocates in Congress or the USA becomes like 50% more authoritarian overnight.

If the death of Charles Montgomery Kirk has taught us anything it's that you really can put any old middle name after a Charles or before a Kirk and make it sound reasonable.

People who make things and provide services know AI is weak in the areas they are strong. People who manage experts but possess no expertise find AI invaluable.
The numbers in here are hilarious.
Do you use AI on the job?
Execs: 87%
Managers: 57%
Workers: 27%
Planned investment by 2030: $5T
"Necessary" annual revenue to justify that spend: $650B
Current annual revenue: $50B
