I’m sorry, but there’s just no affirmative case for this company to exist. I get it, groups have used and still use Facebook to organize, etc, but the inherent terribleness of this organization necessitates closing it down completely.

My ice-cold boring take that will definitely not go viral is that a primary result with a margin of victory of roughly 1 percent tells you precisely nothing about The Future Of The Party.

Getting real sick of slop midwives pleading for a 'respectful discussion' of AI as relates to the arts. Your use of AI to 'make art' is not respectful. It benefits from stolen art, destroys the planet, and does not make you an artist any more than someone driving 26.2 miles is a marathoner.

Big tax results out of Missouri tonight: Voters statewide rejected by an huge margin a GOP ballot measure to phase out the income tax. They also renewed a sales tax to keep state parks free. And Kansas City approved a package of $1.7 billion of bonds for infrastracture.

Like, I need one of these ghouls to explain to me what actually *happens* when a cis person is being confronted. How are they meant to demonstrate their "biological sex" to the satisfaction of the person yelling at them?

It's a baked-in assumption that the person being confronted *will* be trans, and that they will immediately comply, even though there is no means of enforcement whatsoever. What if the person is cis? What if they're trans and just lie? This situation genuinely appears to be beyond their imagination.

A paramilitary group plotted to overthrow the Constitution then conducted a violent attack on America. They were convicted in court of seditious conspiracy, and jailed. Then the leader they aimed to illegally install got power and let them out, their records wiped clean. The Jan. 6 attackers won.

Judge Pained as He Grants Dismissal of Jan. 6 Charges Against Oath Keepers

The judge, Amit P. Mehta, blasted the administration’s request for a dismissal in the case, saying it bestowed “unearned grace” on the Oath Keepers defendants “by wiping their records clean.”

Nicht ein Ceuta-Flüchtling hat es nach Europa geschafft und die Flüchtlingszahlen sind (auch durch das brutale EU-Grenzregime) generell enorm gesunken. Die Angst-Kampagne der Springer-Presse erfüllt nur einen Zweck: Selbst noch Menschenrechte zur Disposition stellen und der AfD das Feld bereiten.
