Once again I am urging u to go to see SEND HELP. It is a campy horror film about a woman treated like shit at work who gets to enact revenge on the CEO’s nepo baby failson on a deserted island. We howled with laughter the whole time. A rollicking skewering of the patriarchy. ❤️❤️

So much for freedom of religion. They want to dictate what beliefs and practices they’ll protect, which means what beliefs and practices they’ll endanger.
Disgusting. Jews are taught repeatedly to welcome the stranger. In a time of rising antisemitic violence, the Trump administration wants us to sweep that aside to get security grants. www.timesofisrael.com/us-jewish-le...

This discourse won't die bc the issue was not really "how can I get laid?"
That's just a way to personalize & disguise the real question: "how can women be returned to the status of chattel so that I have less labor market competition & get free domestic & sexual labor to boot?"
THAT's political.

I don't think "how can I get laid?" is a question for the state to answer.
I also don't think "treat women like they're people," while good advice, will resonate with men asking how they can succeed at treating women like objects.

It is amazing that the man has managed to include both items in the same. goddamn. sentence.
I accept the value of pleading in the alternative.
But I’m not sure you can use the Shaggy defense at the same time you’re asking for relief which is only available to the “person whose wire, oral, or electronic communication is intercepted, disclosed, or used.”

The IRS already knows what you need to pay in taxes – so why doesn’t it just tell you instead of putting you through a costly and tax-consuming reporting process?
Answer: Because Congress is catering to tax prep companies.
