I wrote about how women are going feral for Heated Rivalry, and what that tells us about the state of masculinity.
Maybe the real romantasy is not sex and romance with dragons and fairies, but sex and romance without misogyny and gendered hierarchy.

Booker is on track to erase and replace a historical record (from segregationist Storm Thurmond) at a time when we have an administration trying to erase the real history of this country. Lots of things matter. Symbols among them.

I looked the PAC up; HOLD THE LINE is a Republican/conservative independent PAC that contributed >$20k to Donald Trump in the last cycle.
Is this 💩 even legal?

Currently #T1D is the worst. Supposed to get a steroid shot, but BG decided to be a sticky high so I get to chill in the ready area until they think I'm low enough for this. What I *need* is a new infusion set, but did I bring one? Noooo. 🥲

"Musk's claim ("the left is supposed to be the party of empathy") perfectly distills the asymmetry in our politics. The left is “supposed to be” empathetic, so that’s the standard it must live up to. The right isn't, so when its leader incites a riot, that’s fine since it meets our expectations."

Then maybe the Divine will forgive that kid for being a racist when the kid enters the afterlife. Doesn't mean you get to re-hire them. I've never not been told "sorry" when dismissed from a job. 😡
Trump, Vance, and Musk are pushing to rehire a staffer who resigned after being called out for a social media account with a history of racist posts. “To err is human, to forgive divine,” Elon Musk said in defense of the move. No—it’s not err; it’s racism. No excuses.
