“I don’t know if you call them people. In some cases they’re not people, in my opinion,” Trump said at an Ohio rally on Saturday. “But I’m not allowed to say that because the radical left says that’s a terrible thing to say.”
Yes, that is indeed a terrible thing to say. It’s literally what Hitler said about the Jews. Apparently being anti-NAZI is a radical stance these days.
It’s an old scam classically done with penny stocks and in modern times with crypto. Scammer buys up a whole bunch of garbage investments, cold calls a bunch of inexperienced investors and gets them to buy in (the pump), the price of the investment shoots up, and the scammer sells all their shares before the price collapses (the dump.)
It’s actually illegal, but people still get away with it.
Florida’s attorney general is one among many from red states across the country threatening Maine with legal action as the New England state considers a shield law that would protect those seeking abortions and health care from criminal repercussions in Florida....
State’s rights has always been disingenuous. Back when the Southern states were using it as a shield to own literal slaves, they took a break from their precious state’s rights long enough to demand other states send their escaped slaves back to them, before harping on state’s rights again.
It’s as disingenuous as the person harping on free speech while they say something obnoxious, but suddenly want to limit your speech when you call them out on it.
The South has never used “state’s rights” in good faith, it’s always been an excuse to be bigots.
Not sure what this image with crap plastered all over it so we can’t even properly compare the dates has to do with anything, but climate change has been observed on literally a daily basis for the past 12 years:
The movie uses the bootstrap paradox model of time travel: there is only one timeline, and events can’t be changed, because any attempt to change the timeline had already happened. She only was able to see her child’s future because the child was born. If she had made a different decision in the future, she would never have seen the visions in the past.

“We have concluded that there is not enough evidence to support the safety or clinical effectiveness of (puberty blockers) to make the treatment routinely available at this time.”
They’ve been routinely used for 40 years. Where was the concern before they started being used on trans kids? Funny how things only become unsafe when a group you want to marginalize gets to use them.
Puberty blockers do not permanently mess with physiology. That’s the point: they’re like the temporary tattoos kids can stick on themselves, not permanent inn. Life-altering transition is reserved for when they’re older.
Yes, they’re pretty benign. They do have the potential to decrease bone mineralization a little (calcium doesn’t build up in the bones as well,) but generally not enough to be a huge deal in the grand scheme of things.
From a doctor’s point of view, this is like fretting over whether to take ibuprofen for your headache: sure, there’s theoretically a potential for harm, but not to the extent that it’s a serious consideration.
