Says the woman who disregarded evidence and medical professionals to "weaponise" children to such an extent she got necessary medical support stripped from trans young people, in a manner shown to have contributed to an increase in deaths.

I saw this on Reddit this morning. A map of passport ownership. Looks pretty familiar, (minus Utah and its missionaries.)

There are some Star Trek fans weirdly obsessed with “decorum” and they really fixate on how Holly Hunter sits in the captain’s chair on STARFLEET ACADEMY. One guy left a comment on the official FB whining about it and so Captain Janeway herself responded to drop the hammer

I strongly recommend - to as many people as are able - to watch "The Alabama Solution."
With the strong warning that it is hard. And you will need to make sure you can mitigate the emotional devastation before going to bed.
It's important we all know. But it is PAINFUL.

You see, they're sending them to a camp in TX, where abortion is illegal, because "pro-life."
"Some were as young as 13, and at least half of those taken in so far became pregnant as a result of rape... Their pregnancies are considered high risk by definition, particularly for the youngest girls."

I have very narrow interests in football. I love my Giants, of course. I also like the Saints. And I love anyone trying to beat the Cowboys and the Patriots, especially when they succeed.

Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places.
