Duly noted for all the grammar nerds among us that "Asshole" now qualifies as a pronoun.

Probably widely noted, but a kid with the surname ‘Freedom’ simping for fascists has pretty broad dystopian satire vibes.

It'd be a real shame if an errant ball slammed into his face and broke his nose as he sits courtside. A real shame.

I suspect I'd be heartbroken if that happened, but there's only one way to know with certainty. :D

For certainty! For science!

During his playing days, Kanter was the Nerlens Noel of Kwame Browns. Still, he played eleven goddamn seasons in the NBA. That's multiple metric assloads of money. Has he somehow managed to burn through ALL of it?

Those are some good NBA references, I must say.

Maybe he just misses the attention?

What a bunch of irredeemable assholes

Mr. Freedom there seems to underscore in a particular manner the fact that anti-trans rhetoric is another potent manifestation of misogyny.

I should be more of an attention seeker.

Do you identify as a pitcher?

Aquaman, Real Estate Investor.'s avatar

I identify as a millionaire, does that count?

Used before but worth repeating "Freedom's just another word for no dignity left to lose".

"Russian media report a U.S. Air Force C-17A, callsign RCH4555, landed at Moscow’s Vnukovo Airport after departing Riga this morning with no public destination listed.

The aircraft had flown Charleston → Joint Base Andrews → Riga on Aug. 23.

Who, if anyone, was aboard remains unclear."

It's Melania, isn't it?

It's Moscow Mitch's remains to lie in state at the Kremlin.

Some are suggesting it has to do with a prisoner exchange, but nothing confirmed.

Someone earlier mentioned the FBwalleyed director?

Aquaman, Real Estate Investor.'s avatar

Me?

I know they had announced he's going to Moscow, but I can't be bothered to look up when.

No idea if it's actually him.

Aquaman, Real Estate Investor.'s avatar

I read the article, but saw nothing about who was on either plane?

If it was victory they would talk about it, so it must be the other thing.

So after that orange bag of shit made his announcement about transition reversals, I did my own research and learned something really heartbreaking. I read an NIH meta analysis of studies that examined "regret" about transitioning among people who had their transitions reversed. Of the number of people who transition, only 1-3 percent reverse. The study included a table that presented the reasons people experienced regret. About half regretted because they were dissatisfied with the results--some wished for different physical results, while others said they did not find satisfaction living as the other sex. But the really heartbreaking part was that half the people who reversed their transition did so because they had been pressured into the transition by a partner.

Reading that made me so sad. Nobody should modify their body from pressure by a partner--whether it's weight loss, implants, or gender transition, that is just totally unacceptable.

What. In. The. Fuck?

add in the people who have paused their transitions due to the current regime. Our daughter works with a 'woman' who had begun the transition to male but paused everything as they were too scared to continue. He has gone back to his female name for now. The whole vet clinic supports him but that doesn't help outside of work

( apologies if I have used the incorrect gender in my explanation)

Freedom's just another word for

"I just got KICKED OUT of a bar for DEFENDING WOMEN!" says the creeper who hangs out by the ladies room door to chat up the women as they enter and leave.

(I actually once worked with a guy that told me that that was his way to meet women - and he still couldn't figure out why it never worked.)

Yuck. Another Jesse Watters.

He makes me feel physically unwell and rageful at the same time. I think it is because he reminds me so much of the assholes I would encounter on a daily basis when I was younger.
