Sounds like a win! Best wishes
Hope your drive was okay! Was trying to send good vibes when you were near-ish
Awww shucks
Seriously debating getting myself a derpy stuffy
Get better soon
You definitely think that
Seems like you two both like pseudoscience.
I know you think it’s a big insult to say you hope I don’t have kids but it doesn’t bother me that a weirdo thinks I shouldn’t be a parent because that’s their problem and I know I’m a good parent. Good luck dealing with your issues.
My kid and I were out there making noise in our neighborhood!
Like eugenics!
People make up all sorts of bullshit justifications for their bigotry. This is one of them.
I don’t understand. Trans girls are girls so they should compete with girls. That’s fair.
What’s your point?
Some of us need a minute!
Having a political party that actually supports trans rights, including the rights of trans athletes, to serve as an a real contrast to the GOP would be a pretty cool place to start!
“Ease them into the idea” sounds like a synonym for “coddle.”
If you are scared of someone who lives their life in a way that is different from your own, that’s your issue, not theirs.
If they’re not, they need to grow tf up. I’m done with the idea that hateful people need to be coddled.
No. This is bullshit.
This has been apparent for … 100 years?
Transphobic people don’t shut up when you give them what they say they want, they ask for something else. Thats why it’s imperative to not give them any quarter.
As a girl in sports, I was never asked for an affidavit stating that I was a girl, nor have I been asked for such a thing as the parent of girl children. What a bizarre idea.
I have been a girl for 40+ years and I have never been asked for an affidavit from my doctor stating that I am a girl, nor have I ever been asked for one regarding my girl children. The “rules committee” can stick their affidavit request in an intimate place.
Who tf cares??
It sounds like this room sucks and we should check out a better one.
No, that’s incorrect. Trans girls in sports don’t infringe upon the rights of girls in sports because trans girls are girls.
That’s awesome and you should talk about it all the time
It sounds exhausting to constantly be on the lookout for “run of the mill drugged out wackos” in public bathrooms. Sorry that you have to deal with a stranger danger obsession. That’s sounds like a bummer.
Tf did I just read
Sarcasm is not persuasive. Bye now.
I’m not throwing *anyone* under the bus. If you want my vote, you need to support trans rights, including trans athletes.
Respectfully, don’t just sit there and hope. We all have work to do.
Tough shit. Find a Democratic nominee who is actually good on trans rights if you want people who support trans rights to vote for them.
The party has three years to find a nominee who is actually good on trans rights. I hope they do.
Sometimes things that are wrong are popular. That doesn’t make them right.
We deserve a better nominee than Newsom.
I think the people who are saying they won’t vote for Newsom are doing you a favor. If you want their votes, you should support someone else as the Democratic nominee.
That doesn’t answer my question.
Who specifically advocates “not voting as both sides are the same”?
When did this person say any of that?
If transwomen stopped playing sports today, transphobic people would just come up with another issue to attack trans people. Transphobic people deserve no quarter. Period.
Your kid is not the spokesperson for all trans people.
There are not a ton of publications I’d describe as old media but The Atlantic is definitely one of them.
Got it, thanks for replying. Speaking only for myself, to answer whether an outlet is old media or not, I’d think about whether there’s a print version and how long it has been a publication. The Atlantic has a print version and is (omg) 150+ years old, so I’d say it’s old media.
I might regret asking but what do you mean? The Atlantic has been around for decades.
When I’m online shopping and looking at pants, I always look to see if the description includes the inseam. If not, I keep looking.
Even if the job kinda sucks, people are willing to do it when the compensation is high enough 🤷🏻♀️
I am not an expert at economics but I thought the solution to a labor shortage was increasing wages.
Why live like this voluntarily?
That was arguably the one good thing he did so trying to undo it seems logical
I don’t understand this question. Is he looking for a cost-benefit analysis?
Ok but that’s not bad
Especially knowing how vulnerable these children are 😢
My brother explained that carbon monoxide molecules are heavier than oxygen molecules so they fill up the house and that’s how people get carbon monoxide poisoning. That resonated with my father and that’s how he learned why you shouldn’t do that. Being intelligent =/= being smart
My father has two STEM doctorates and was a university prof for ~35 years, inc. several years of service as dean. When he lost power during a winter storm, he ran the generator in our closed garage (!!). 1/
I feel badly for this mom. I remember feeling incredibly vulnerable postpartum and the idea that her husband is berating her when she’s healing from having their baby makes me feel livid.
Ooh good idea, will start doing that
Not soon enough
A parking lot is more dangerous for kids than a public bathroom.
You *gotta* check for bombs every time.
Shit happens but I try to worry about things that are more likely and stranger danger type incidents are pretty rare.
“Run of the mill drugged out wackos” just chilling out in public bathrooms waiting to pounce on children. A totally normal thing to worry about.
Like this doesn’t make any sense. Why would a person do this? There’s no logic here.
Living this way sounds exhausting
He knows what he’s doing is wrong. That’s good but it doesn’t mean anything unless he changes is behavior. His wife just made their baby with her body. Treating her like shit is inexcusable. He should beg for her forgiveness and dedicate himself to doing right by his family.
She’s never going to develop confidence in her skills as a parent with this asshole yelling at her
“Hurting my wife makes me sad, what should I do?” Stop hurting your wife.
That’s not fair
It’s devastating but thank you for sharing.
Thankfully my mother was the lone witness to the pronunciation butchering that followed.
I had to write a report about Chopin.
I definitely pronounced Penelope like cantaloupe.
As a tourist, I rented a bike to ride across the Golden Gate Bridge and had to repeatedly shed and add layers.
Dude they did *not* dress her well in that movie.
I don’t remember Absolute Power!
My kid is putting that I am her hero on a class assignment which is nice but now I feel like she needs some kind of evaluation.
I don’t know if you’re serious but I love that movie
This is gross. Do better.
Worst for setting up this question
🚨 ACTIVE CHECKPOINT ALERT 🚨 Reports have been made of an active checkpoint on 295 North past the Pennsylvania Ave exits, as of today August 29 at 5:20pm. Avoid the area if possible!! 1/2
I’ve been in plenty of no-shoes houses where the homeowner did not warn me ahead of time. For most people, it’s a non-issue. If it would be an issue for you, it would be smart to check with the host.
My clothing does not constantly come into contact with the ground outside so that’s a silly comparison.
If you have a specific unusual condition that means you can’t take off your shoes, you should confirm with the host that that’s okay.
‼️ALERT‼️ MPD and Federal Agents stopping cars heading east on New York Ave NE near Target (16th St NE) as of 9pm 8/28
‼️ALERTA‼️ MPD y Agentes Federales parando vehiculos que van hacia el este en New York Ave NE cerca de Target (16th St NE) a partir de las 9pm 8/28
Masked federal agents and MPD are conducting a checkpoint on New York Ave in Ivy City in DC.
Much better!
I have yet to be surprised by anything I have learned about them
Who cares what those losers think
Ben CorePower Yoga Sam Orange Theory Tom SolidCore
Then get lost
A family member got it like the day after they became eligible for the vaccine 🙃
Oh no, I’m sorry!! I keep hearing about younger people getting it so I’m planning to ask my GP if I can get the vaccine soon
I remember that the government’s response was absolutely awful and then once in a while, I learn that it was actually even worse than I thought
I’ve been making an effort to spend time away from here and this person is who I find when I drop in smdh
That it was shitty
What a creep
The post you wrote? You should delete it. Promptly.
