Trump DOJ Refuses to Rule Out Second Amendment Right to Nuclear Weapons Trump’s DOJ refused to rule out nuclear weapons from the kinds of arms it claims the average citizen may be entitled to possess.

So your not allowed to patent the plans for a nuclear bomb bc then everyone would know how to build one. Apparently tho if you figure out how to do it yourself you can keep it. 😂 #DOJ #TRUMP #WTF

I can honestly think of no other reason than just blatant bigotry for this.

World chess just placed restrictions on both trans women and trans men The International Chess Federation will stop allowing transgender women to participate in women's tournaments. The group said changing genders has a "significant impact" on a player's status.

As usual I’m late to the party. Tell me why in 2023 the world chess body banned trans women from competing in women’s chess tournaments? For again CHESS?!? #TransWomenareWomen #Transrightsarehumanrights

Esquire's 20 Best Podcasts of 2025

If Books Could Kill Have you ever come across a book, most likely a self-help or motivational book, flipped through a few pages and thought, There’s no way people are falling for this crap, right? And then you find out that the author of that book just appeared on a podcast or nine. Turns out they’re the star of the moment, and their grand theory about whatever pop psychology du jour is making the media rounds. But, seriously, no one’s falling for this, right? Right? Thankfully, If Books Could Kill tactfully takes down these books that are often heralded as works of genius when in reality they are, to put it diplomatically, maybe not as deep as they think they are. And it’s not just mean-spirited hating. The hosts, Michael Hobbes and Peter Shamshiri, are sure to back up their claims with thoughtful research for counterarguments. But, sometimes, you also just have to call out bullshit when you see it.
