"[I]t is paywalled and I have a real bias against giving money to a place that used to employ and underpay me" is certainly a phrase that resonates with many people these days!

Tommy Robinson moans about the Muzzlims but spends half the year in Dubai.

As he has a coke problem to rival Don Jr he’s getting funding for his lifestyle somewhere.

The last story I watched where a guy wore a mask, he killed his wife's lover fearing there may be be surveillance cameras in places. He managed to avoid being seen, but the police detective believed he did it, by his reaction when he saw him pick up his blood covered wife at the hospital.

Like he already knew everything. But the cop couldn't prove it, but he later told the guy he knew he did it.

Racism should be physically painful.

I can MAKE it damned agonizing for a moment or three.

I wonder if a stout, finely-shellacked Titan sunflower stalk would serve me as a good swinging instrument.

Hmm, 10-10 with 11 min left in regulation. Of course in Michigan, "regulation" is only your opinion.

Mysterysurf's avatar

Make that 17-10 Michigan now.

abbienormal's avatar

It was only yesterday that I learned that big schools such as Michigan pay smaller schools such as Eastern Michigan to play regulation games against them.

Seems wrong but most of college sports seem wrong to me these days.

We'll have to check that with their super-secret clock later.

As late stage capitalism/oligarchy devours the global economy the disaffected and frightened by design demand a boogeyman(s).

Can't be the rich motherfuckers.

That's it. It turns into modern day Feudalism with the billionaires owning everything, determine how we earn our money, who owns where we live, and what and how we spend it. Truly we will owe our souls to the company store.

Curtis Yarvin wants to turn us into bio-fuel as a "compassionate alternative to genocide."

And he has the ear of Thiel, Musk, all of the top Tech Bros.

There is no room for the "non-productive" and "losers and left-behinds" in their world.

They absolutely HATE humanity and I can't figure out why other than a common thread among these horrid men is they were all contrarian, difficult assholes in their teens and never got fucked in HS.

Seriously. WHAT IN THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE GODDAMNED MEN? AND IT'S ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY MEN!

They are “buying up” the fresh water. They already own the air we breath.

Working on domenating our food supply.

That’s it bitches, top three.

I have an idea; let’s kneecap the assorted sewer rats in these networks of undesirables by taking away their money and their platforms. Outshout the racist goons, shut them down, democracy depends on us to do it. Global migration isn’t going to get better any time soon because of the oil-soaked shitheads egging this shit on.

EyeQueue's avatar

We don't have the $$$$$ to outshout them, saldy.

And that proves, to me, there is not one decent billionaire. Not one.

I don't know what "swivel-eyed" even means, but it feels like genius.

"Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, who tries to pretend he isn’t a straight-up white supremacist thug by adopting the “working class” moniker Tommy Robinson"

What a fraud. Can't even use his real name. BTW, back in the early 80s there was an English rock band named the Tom Robinson Band, let by an "out" gay person. He was into human rights, acceptance of others, and all of that other "left wing" stuff.

Glad to be Gay, 2468 Motorway, War Baby - great songs

Yeah, they then went down to Portsmouth and amongst other things turned up to a hotel as it had "illegals" staying there.... who turned out to the the Pakistan U19 Men's cricket team who were / are touring with the main team

Oh and they've also been doxing and calling members of the RNLI (lifeboats) traitors for rescuing those poor people coming over in unsuitable boats. They rescue ANYONE who is in danger of drowning. And they're volunteers.

CT insider: Connecticut Children’s agrees to end trans youth care for 10 years under deal with Trump, DOJ

“The settlement also states that Connecticut Children’s will pay the federal government $60,000 and allocate $500,000 for patients under 19 to get medical reversal or “detransition” care. “

I thought Connecticut was a nice place.

Not a single fucking person with any modicum of power is going to stand up to him in any meaningful way.

SkeptiKC's avatar

Monsters.

Manipulative, Buybull bullshit shoveling bigots too damned thoroughly, wilfully ignorant to recognize the incredible DIVERSITY of human beings.

It is my duty as an empathetic human being to fiercely FUCK with any of these belligerent cowards too damned IGNORANT to see beyond their narrow, black and white withering, petty perspective.

Texas Children's Hospital has signed a similar agreement. I know a nurse there who tells me there are people who work in that hospital who believe that children were having gender affirming surgery there in secret operating rooms.

This is literally how Holocausts happen.

It’s already happening. I have been TERRORIZED since 2014. First, online with AI and hacking, then the police in Texas. I am now leaving the country. NAZIS

EyeQueue's avatar

OMG. I'm so sorry.

I'm glad you are getting out.

Prometheus59650's avatar

I couldn't contain myself.

"We BOTH work here. SHOW ME these secret fucking rooms. SHOW ME!"

"Of course, you're the same grade of dumbfuck that thinks HRC was trafficking children out of the basement of a pizza place with no basement."

Furthermore, if these are being secretly done because "money" and or "agenda," all they've done is taken away the visible money trail. The sekrit operations will continue.

SAMushrush's avatar

I was surprised when he told me. I asked him if it was admin staff that claimed this or what. He said no, it was medical staff. Worrisome.

EyeQueue's avatar

Vanishingly few transgender people are clamoring for "detransition." It's like a 1% minority of a 1% minority.

How I loathe these fucking shitters.

Prometheus59650's avatar

Pretty sure the next AG can void the settlement.

If not, the President can because, if these last 18 months have taught us anything it's that Presidential power is virtually unilateral.

Why are doctors caving when there is no scientific authority or evidence to do so? M4A blocking pussy coward stock counters.

MRK's avatar

Because it's hurt trans people, or risk losing all federal funding while the lawsuit plays out.

Prometheus59650's avatar

And, as horrible a choice as it is, it's the one that should be made when you're dealing with people for whom the cruelty is the point.

MRK's avatar

I don't know enough about their situation - the size of their endowment, say, or what their donors are capable of - to say I'm OK with them caving, but I recognize the pressure this administration is putting them under.

455 Rocket Cat, Space Donkey's avatar

The President says there are two genders and makes it policy. That is NOT science, peer review, etc. Nobody is fighting back for trans kids. Who kill themselves bc of Maga bullying. Hope ALL their children are trans.
