Don’t call me an atheist. I define myself by what I believe in, not what I don’t. Call me a humanist, or a rationalist. (My sister likes to say I can’t conceive of a higher intelligence in the universe than my own. She might be on to something.)

Yeah; I'm no psychologist, but to my untrained eye, he sure does seem to tick every single one of the outward symptoms for NPD.
In fact, the only symptom I think he DOESN'T have is "Feels depressed and moody because they fall short of perfection," because I suspect he honestly thinks he IS perfect.

The only way to explain Trump is to acknowledge that he is insane. Certifiably so. No sane person could say and do the things he says and does. He should be institutionalized. Not to treat his insanity; he's too far gone for that, but to protect the rest of society from him and his sick followers.

Do we have a PINO in the White House? A President in Name Only. That is what it looks like given Trump's obvious dementia. Trump must submit for a brain scan to see if he has dementia or we should assume his actions are invalid. My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/we-need-a-...

No doubt it will cost 300 times that once approved in the US (if it’s approved at all):
A drug that provides near-perfect protection against HIV with shots just twice a year will be made available at $40 per patient annually in low- and middle-income countries, offering new hope for ending the epidemic.

Low- and middle-income countries will be able to purchase an effective preventative at a reduced price. The arrangements may help stem the epidemic 40 years after it began.

“What is a woman?” has been a rallying cry for the right, but maybe we should have taken it as a serious question from people who are genuinely ignorant of sex & gender. They must have never had The Talk from their parents.
I hate that Brigitte Macron feels compelled to prove she’s a woman, but I get it: shut that lie down. The right thrives on ruining lives with made-up trash.
Maybe Candace Owens should have to prove she’s human.
