Were left-handed people attacking the rest of the population’s way of life? Before left-handed scissors, only a fraction of a percent of people identified as left handed, after, it skyrocketed to 10%. Why? Because left-handers were stigmatized and attacked (sometimes literally) so hid their true selves. It was only when society accepted left-handedness, that they felt comfortable being left handed in the open. So I ask again, were left-handed people attacking right-handers by wanting to be accepted in society? No. Fuck no. Society learned and adjusted to accommodate and accept and it became normal. This whole trans in sports argument is utterly assanine. You adjust the rules so things are fair and you’re not discriminating against a minority. Schools used to have separate entrances for girls and boys. Seems ridiculous now, but I’m sure made perfect sense to the people of those times. One day, after society adjusts, we’ll look back at these anti-trans mentalities in the same way we do about gender segregated school entrances. Utter silliness. “Attacking the main populations way of life”, how is this any different than the civil rights movement of the 60’s? One might consider that the black community was attacking the white populations way of life, but I think most of us can see the absurdity in that way of thinking.

I love our DE mat. We had an issue with one of our cats peeing on the cotton mats while they were damp, which is why we switched, but i personally find it oddly luxurious. Clearly not soft and cushy tho.

We’re never going to recover. He’s speed running the fall of a nation.

Ugh, my heart aches for those girls. I can’t fathom what it must feel like at that age to receive such hate from large swaths of the population, and to have the president attacking your way of life like it’s some sort of personal vendetta.

In other words, government shutdown is a near guarantee.

Just for the record, I do agree with you that these should have been codified by Congress.

Somehow I don’t think that would have mattered with these traitors.

Allegedly.

It’s an addiction, like being addicted to heroin. We should have done an intervention long ago, but the addicts are running the show. And capitalism seems to favor and promote the addicts so we have a feedback loop that I fear cannot be stopped.

If money were no object, I’d book a permanent vacation to New Zealand. But a vacation into the Sun has a certain appeal too.

e: love your username btw

I came to the same conclusion.

I literally just uninstalled both rif and rif premium 1 minute ago. Their last update was June 2023. I can’t believe it’s been that long.

This. I’m convinced at this point they’re attempting to instigate riots so they can declare material law and seize full control over the US government.

You’ve perfectly articulated my thoughts as well.

The worms all died from malnutrition.

Ditto!! <3 He was my best friend. He was so special. He tried telling us of our miscarriage before we knew. He knew when his adopted brother was going to die. He got me through a lot of past trauma. He was invincible; it was his name (Muteki, invincible in Japanese). But he couldn’t beat his failing kidneys. We buried him in our back yard. I still bring him pistachios to play with; they were his absolute favorite “toy”.

Thank you for responding and may the memories of yours live forever.

I lost my 19 yo 10 months ago. I think about him every day. I’m still heart broken.

Are there any providers you’d like to recommend?

So just slightly off the mark then. Not sure if you’re trying to support, refute, or clarify details of my statement, so I’ll add this:

In 2021, Elon Musk challenged the United Nations (UN) to provide a plan to end world hunger using $6 billion of his wealth. The UN World Food Programme (WFP) responded with a detailed plan that could save 42 million people from starvation. However, Musk donated the money to his own foundation instead.

Musk once offered to end would hunger for 6 billion, but turned it down and bought twitter instead.
