Hey now, abortion was what they turned to when segregation stopped being as easy. Trans stuff is more like the next target. They're also apparently trying to drum up furry hate again for... some reason. Adjacent target or something, lot of the language used is similar.

Its a gateway program.  Get these people into the clinics, in contact with counselor, and documented.  It's not like it's take-a-penny, leave-a-penny - there will be paperwork.

While there, other services can be offered.


Then, later on the lawmakers that be can expand the program as they see fit.
Pointedly, it's not something new -- programs like it have been used, effectively, all over the world for a long while now. It's good shit that generally ends up saving the communities they're in both blood and money. GOP and co's just straight up lying about how it works and media is apparently all for carrying water on that :-\

Talking with breathless furvor [sic] about federally mandated litter boxes in the classroom, last I saw chatter about it. I felt like I had somehow tripped into a time warp back a decade or two, ha.

The weakest of Google searches says some angry parent in a board meeting in Michigan insisted the genderless bathrooms had litterboxes in them for students who identify as cats, which everyone vehemently denies. Which sounds about right coming from the looney box reactionaries in this country.

If you want some more WTF, here you go ...

They can't push school choice in order to segregate from Black students anymore, so they're going after the trans kids. Ho hum.

Not really unexpected when you note two things:
1) It's a statement by a Political Candidate.
2) It's a FORMER teacher.  I'm guessing the move out of teaching was at the insistence of the school system.

Do a deep dive on the candidate, and I bet this is only the tip of the iceberg on them. I'm guessing they're so Goddamn Awful that they HAVE to make such outrageous statements to hide their many, many flaws.

Hot damn, can't believe a candidate for a democracy would take the bold stance of being pro-bullying

I can't reach any of my dutch newspaper sites anymore. They all time out.

I hope this isn't the start of a Russian attack on Europe.

They're back up.

Not all newspapers were gone, but I think all newspapers under the same publisher were down. All other sites, like this one, or the NYT were fine.

If Russia were to start a war with the West, taking down our online communications like newspapers would be one of the first things you'd see though.

I'm not the one to say that things there can go crazy, fast. That was the US president, and I'm sorry if I lend that enough credibility to be concerned.

You jest, but given my location, if ww3 ever breaks out and nukes are part of it, I'll pretty damn sure die in the opening salvo, living less than 5km away from one of the few airports in Western Europe that has runways large enough for NATO to launch large transport planes with cargo and fuel. During the Jugoslavia conflict it was main staging area for that reason. No other airfield anywhere nearer capable of refueling and loading Hercules transports.

Heh, a MAD situation would likely mean Im getting an emergency EVAC order, Downtown Manhattan isnt all that far from me, considering.


But at least I'll be tanked up to the tits in oil stock for when the market disappears.  :-\  Get it?  Because tits are sometimes refereed to as fuel tanks?
