I think the original commenter’s point is that calling grown women “girls” is a commonly used tactic to infantilize women and make the situation seem not as serious as it’s supposed to be.
Take for example the headline that we’re talking about here: “girl” vs “woman” is the difference in thinking that this is some 16 year old who made dumb decisions and someone who probably understands the consequences of what they’re doing and takes proper precautions to prevent it.
This is not to say that I personally believe that one abortion is more justified than the other (because I don’t), but just want to point out the semantic difference here.
Did they ever punish Speaker Sexton for illegally funneling taxpayer dollars into his lavish estate and mistress or is it still more of a crime to be black in Tennessee?
I live in Tennessee. They are just fucking racist pieces of shit. And no that whole Sexton shit went nowhere, which sounds about white.
I mean DesJarlias keeps being sent back to Congress along with John McGroomemYoung Rose. Governor HVAC literally had the whole blowing millions on fake ass COVID tests swept under the rug.
So, yeah just more of the same privileged ass white men finding new ways to fuck over everyone else who doesn't tiptoe around their fragile ass egos.
I’m so fucking tired of this culture war bullshit. This is what my tax dollars are getting wasted on? No. I don’t approve of that. There should be a way for me to say “If you’re gonna keep wasting my money with this farce, I’m out. No more money for you.”
Breaking news, Boeing whistleblower found dead after repeatedly falling onto a hail of bullets. Was found to be an accident no further investigations planned
I mean some officials think opening the dev tools in a web browser is hacking sooooooo. Sad to say I dont think the gov is going to catch up in law making to clarify for this case.
Especially since this seems like something that was freely accessible
But in an indictment laying out 14 counts against Burke that include conspiracy and wiretapping, prosecutors allege that the journalist went too far by tapping into a streaming feed site where he acquired unbroadcast video clips of former Fox News star Tucker Carlson and other personalities.
Sounds almost like Elon threatening people who post his flight logs, when the flight logs are freely accessible…
The Idaho Senate voted Thursday 27-8 to advance a bill that defines “domestic terrorism” as requiring the involvement of foreign groups. According to the bill, if there’s no foreign involvement, then there can be no domestic terrorism.
I’m sorry, but once you blend it up with over 50% other stuff, it’s no longer cheese. For example, we call some better concoctions made with cheese “cheese spread”. American cheese itself has a lot of varying quality, some is largely cheese mixed with other dairy products and emulsifiers. Others, like Kraft Singles, are largely artificial.
We should absolutely limit naming in order to protect proper, traditional processes like those used in cheese making. Processes which produce healthier products, that don’t rely on approximations of nutrient content, while missing out on lesser nutrients that we might not understand yet. Unfortunately, ultraprocessed foods have become so normalized, that most people seem to read right through the labels and ignore the fact that they’re eating largely artificial foods.
I can see the benefit of a more lightly processed American cheese in melting applications. I prefer using melty cheeses like Muenster or Danish Fontina on things like burgers, or a richer cheese combined with a touch of sodium citrate to aid melting in others like soups. But some folks will even use a slice or two of American cheese along with a better cheese, in place of sodium citrate.
I mean, Kenobi Space Jesus has a pretty direct antecedent in Mormon art. They took the Medieval and Renaissance European tradition of making literally everybody white and brought it deep into the twentieth and even twenty-first centuries.
I feel like this 100% should have been upheld. The reason being that trump engaged in an insurrection, which, according to the 14th amendment, means he cannot run for public office. We have laws for a reason, right? republicans can try to kick (D)s off the ballot, but I would hope they have a damn good reason for it. If not, that is when our court system is supposed to step in.
The court didn’t answer the question of whether or not Trump engaged in insurrection. The question is whether or not a state can kick candidates off the ballet under section 3 of the 14th amendment and the court found that they could not.
Yep, right up there with 5G being set up to control us using the COVID-19 vaccine as a delivery medium. Also, COVID-19 vaccines cause infertility and it’s the Democrats who are controlling it.
I mean, whatever people believe must be true, right? Can’t let an objective fact get in the way of a good ole echo chamber of morons.
I don’t think you understand the implications if the Supreme Court voted to uphold the ruling.
Is Trump a treasonous piece.of shit? Yes. Do I want theocratic white Christian nationalist courts from MAGA states to have the ability to block any candidate from the federal ballot that doesn’t bow down to their demands? Hell fucking no!
If the power rests with the states, it’s the state supreme courts who make the final determination, so it couldn’t be appealed up to federal courts if a bunch of MAGA judges in Red states decided that “that darn Liberalism brainrot is a Commie insurrection against America, hyuck hyuck!” and kick all Dems off the ballots.
Unlike sane people, regressive leaders do not need or care about reality in order to get people removed from the ballot. It absolutely does not matter that progressives have not invited insurrections. They’ll be removed anyway if that precedent is set simply because they are an alternative option, and the voting population is sufficiently decieved or deluded to support it.
