IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER:

CIS CHILDREN CAN STILL HAVE ALL THE PLASTIC SURGERY THEY WANT.

THERE ARE ZERO LAWS PROHIBITING PLASTIC SURGERY FOR CIS MINORS.

these cruel fuckers dont give a shit about kids. thats why they still want to be able to marry them and give their 16yr old nieces breast implants.

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's *adolescent* energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

Friendly reminder that @lacontroller.bsky.social is the *only* elected official in LA who has been sounding the alarm on our city’s complete failure to address the climate crisis. We will have many more and many worse crises if we do not make drastic changes.

In general, all of humanity would be better off just sort of adapting this basic mechanism to their lives. (Conveniently, this is an LA Times article.) www.latimes.com/nation/la-oe...

Prayers to everyone in LA tonight. These fires are devastating. A fire broke out less than 3 miles from where I live and they were able to extinguish it. Grateful for the firefighters, first responders and emergency personnel working diligently tonight.

I think about this a lot. How much my life would be different if we had good trains in the US. I wonder if we ever will.
The new train will connect Beijing and Shanghai in just 3 hours and 20 minutes.

Here are some US city pairs that are a similar distance apart:
- NYC-CHI
- CHI-ATL
- DC-ATL
- ATL-NYC
- ATL-MIA
- CLT-BOS
- ORL-DC

The $2000/night detail is fun because you could stay in that cottage every night for 1,370 years for one billion dollars
Elon Musk has reportedly extended his stay at Mar-a-Lago, spending most of the past two months at a cottage in Trump's resort that normally rents for $2,000 a night as he continues to peddle influence over the incoming presidential administration. Can the delicate and co-dependent bromance last?

I've seen a child with tetanus, I've treated near fatal infections after chicken pox, and I've pronounced children dead from COVID whose parents refused to have them vaccinated.

We have lost our minds... and are about to lose so many of our precious children.

NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all.

Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

This was always the end game and motivation for why Trump ran for president again. So if you’re an authoritarian taking note, you now know for sure that American institutions will not protect democracy. Trump pays no price for trying to overthrow an election, and inciting an insurrection.
