It's also an example of what a lie the "just asking questions", "fairness in sports", "I'll march with you if..." stuff always was. Because it's hard to think of a clearer cut example of a terf issue based on an alleged *principle* - single sex spaces - that has now become a *personal* vendetta.
What can I say to you, world? Should I tell you that the most precious thing in my life might leave me within hours?
Or should I tell you that I am powerless to help save his life?
My beloved Arafat is going to die and I am helpless.
I beg you to donate if you can. 😭

Liberals love to try to package their absolute last resort before fascism, mild social democracy, as this hardcore socialist upheaval instead of a slightly nicer form of the obligations of nobility.

AI/LLM is mainly a make-work project for the most useless people you’ve ever met
I totally like what she's doing. Commercial flights over private planes every day. But honestly, just accept the business class upgrade. It's literally how the airline stays profitable.
Indigenous people are being arrested for trying to sell weed on their own land but if you're white you can incorporate a crypto currency scam and AI data farming
According to video recordings, when a ship tries to pass through the strait of Hormuz, Iranian navy says: “The Strait of Hormuz is still closed. We will open it by the order of our leader Imam Khamenei, not by the tweets of some idiot.”

David Cameron got that pig's head pregnant and thats where wes streeting came from
everywhere you look, they’re adding rate limits and raising the price per token. it’s almost as if the bill is coming due and they can’t keep throwing money at making something happen that isn’t happening.
I mean they already wanted to get rid of everyone vaguely Brown, they were already doing that this is like a formalization of that
Hegseth's outrageous financial adventure is nothing we'd expect from a person of even average intelligence...but stupidity changes that calculus, and being desperate changes it more.
Being stupid, desperate, and drunk would make an insider trade look maximally plausible. trib.al/LksFJtD
