Whelp, you've convinced me. I have to make buttercake and opera fudge and bring them into the office this week.

Ate butter cake (the real PA stuff that bleeds butter) yesterday? Had a hoagie for lunch? Opera fudge in the evening? Balance that out with a plate of suffering and the scales will equalize.

I swear it must have been invented as a a form of penance for all the other indulgent and delicious foods in PA, as much as a poverty meal.

The aim of the organised transphobic movement is to mandate trans people out of existence, they won't be happy until their targets are dead, it's a movement motivated by genocidal mania, and the cruel, vindictive, hateful bigotry extends from there.

Asheville yup. Prettiest damn city in the state.

And yeah we've got some good eggs - LGR, Evan and Katelyn for example. When people think NC+youtube though they tend to think of the world's most famous living capitalism meme.

Bord BIA quality assurance stamp: origin, northern ireland.

Yes, but is it certified?

Steve remains one of those fellow NC residents that when I see him make news I can proudly say "He's from my state"

I don't get to say that as much as I'd like.

The French have the opportunity to do the best and funniest thing ever.

Dudes who actually buy into manosphere bullshit love to go on about biological/gender essentialism and The Natural Order, but when you tell 'em "So where's the problem, most males in the animal kingdom never get a chance to procreate, I guess your genes must be inferior" suddenly there's an issue :V

It seems pretty darn smart. Like a free-standing structure like that and blankets should do a remarkable job deadening background noise. I kind of want to make one of those for work now (my office is a glass skinner box that makes me feel perpetually anxious).

Is that your setup for blocking light and sound while recording things? That seems like a cool way to do it. Also, cat approved = double win?

Sure, being cold sucks, but I do love a good excuse to pull out the heated blanket. Best fire hazard I've ever bought.

I definitely felt like Zero Dawn hit better, but I'm not sure if that's because it actually did anything differently or because it was fresh to me so I just ate up all that exposition.

A big thank you to Hannah Spencer MP for signing our letter and standing in clear support of the trans+ community.
