Saudi perpetrated 9/11 and murdered an American journalist, yet our government has remained chummy with them through it all. The US only cares about ethics if they can make a buck off of it.

No disagreement, but I'm expressing my own experience. Personally speaking, the last book I read by a male author that I'd recommened to everyone is Fear by Bob Wooward. It's on my 'favorites' shelf.

“.. Inside the White House, top advisers joke that they are ruling Congress with an “iron fist,” according to people who have heard the comments. Steve Bannon, the influential Trump ally, likened Congress to the Duma, the Russian assembly that is largely ceremonial.”

These should be easy lawsuits. I'm hoping they start filing.

Sure. That's why his ankles are swollen to the size of his calves and his feet look like they've been Cinderella "stepsistered" into his shoes.

True, but this is not equal both sides issue. Only one side stole land after pushing out natives via violence. Only one side spent the last 2 years committing genocide.

It's really not. Blue states, however, still need to get ahead of this and find alternative voting machines for their elections. Dominion is used in 27 states currently. Give or take 12 of those are blue/purple. They'd be wise to not use these machines.

I'm sorry, did Temu Mel Gibson here just sat that the baby is *in* the placenta?

Is there any aspect of human biology this lumbering science experiment of a man can't get wrong?

RFK Jr: "Somebody showed me a TikTok video of a pregnant woman at 8 months pregnant -- she's an associate professor at the Columbia Medical School -- and she is saying 'F Trump' and gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta. The level of Trump Derangement Syndrome is now a pathology."

Many of them also melt in the face of competition, or what they may wrongfully perceive as competition. The Venn diagram of men like that and the ones that never shut the f*ck up is basically a circle.

That's wild. Majority of my favorite authors, contemporary or not, are all women. Women have written phenomenal books in multiple genres across the board. These people are missing out.

I wonder how many republicans actually believe their own horsesh*t and how many just state this fabricated nonsense to delight fuhrer and throw red meat to their gullible followers.

I know my comment is a massive oversimplification & doesn't address variables, but I find caring less about what other people think and putting your own mental/physical health first are two things women really need to lean into more. It's not our job in life to fix/take care of everyone else alone.

You want to know what a couple of decades of standardized testing has done to literacy rates?

Look around, friends.

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

Murray: I talked to a family that’s paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. It’s going to jump to over $1,800 per month.

Many people will turn away and not pay for it—obviously, they’ll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.

You've always supported an apartheid European colony committing violence against Palestinians? A true imperialist.

You're trying to equate what happened on October 7th to the genocide israel is currently committing against Palestinians? That aipac check is doing its work.

Carney is behaving like every rich white man. He's not playing 3D chess. He's playing the rich white man gamble. Canadians are as unaware as Americans were in 2016.

Oh look the party that screams “family values” every five minutes is silent when one of their megachurch darlings pleads guilty to child sex abuse. But they’ll trip over themselves to ban books and attack drag shows. Tells you everything you need to know.
