Frankly, if you frame life as men bad and women good, you’re basically begging to get hurt by other women as they perpetuate the structures of misogyny against you, while also preventing yourself from finding love with men, who can actually be really lovely (including cis men).
I’ll die on the hill that “all men suck” is, in general, baby’s first feminist thought, which is distressing considering that’s where most people’s feminist awakening seems to end.

Condé Nast forgot to renew the trademark for Gourmet and so a group of journalists grabbed it and are relaunching the food magazine as a worker-owned co-op. Love it. [gourmetmagazine.net]

Tear this whole rotten party to the ground.
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

Europe must “persuade younger Europeans that their heritage, culture and way of life — a fundamentally Christian civilization leavened and improved but not erased by the values of the Enlightenment — are worth defending,” our columnist Bret Stephens writes.

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

Chiropractors and homeopaths are at best deluded shmucks endangering their patients with useless/dangerous hokum, and at worst malicious parasites destroying the lives and bodies of people in their care for money.
Chiropractors are absolutely doctors. Just like someone who has a doctorate in humanities, or education, is a doctor.

Casey is spot on here. I accept that some people are fully squeamish of blood and injury on a psychological level, that's fine, but talking about the people who are always like 'oh gore is just cheap and tacky in horror' and they usually mean Hostel, and what they've heard about the Saw movies.
Serious talk, there's some positively incredible movies that are pretty gory, and I think just certain trends in 00s horror gave it a bad reputation. For example, Audition is one of my favourite movies ever! Got to see it on the big screen last year for its 25th anniversary!

I simply do not believe the Democrats want the American people to be educated, happy, or empowered to decide their own future. The overwhelming evidence is that they wish to maintain a crushingly miserable status quo with no regard to human dignity or joy.
