We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation
The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

Today was the last day of Freedom Shield, the massive US-led military drills conducted right on North Korea's doorstep.
Last week, I interviewed @hermithwarang.bsky.social about these how these drills — and how the US wants to turn the peninsula into its frontline for war against China.

it’s not a slur it’s a v simple descriptor for what liberalism is: the ideological expression of capitalism. the communists disdain to conceal their aims!
If you use the term "liberal" as a personal or ideological slur it might make you seem in and cool to your lefty mutuals but it is destructive to any broader coalition building that might help the left flank build political power so really it's all about what your goals are

Good time for people in the US to be asking why the U.S. is occupying Korea or in an alliance with this govt. What did Washington know about Yoon’s war plans? When did they know it? Are US leaders trying to use Korea to manufacture WWIII?
In the wake of South Korea's martial law order, the National Assembly has heard shocking testimony that President Yoon's coup plot included plans to kill US soldiers, assassinate politicians, and restart the Korean War.

Once again, the New York Times manages to tell the harrowing story of the Gwangju Massacre without once mentioning that the uprising it inspired was put down with brutal force with the approval and vital assistance of US President Jimmy Carter and the Pentagon. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/06/w...
Atrocities Made a South Korean City Infamous. A Novelist Made It Immortal.
The last time South Korea imposed martial law, Gwangju endured a deadly crackdown. Han Kang, the Nobel Prize-winning author, told its story in “Human Acts.”

Not sure if anybody's surprised at anything anymore. But MBC reports that Def. Min. ordered to strike N. Korea for sending the 'trash balloon' about one week before the coup attempt. The chairman of the joint chief of staff refused it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggr3...

The way the iof can't win against hezbollah is pretty incredible esp. considering that Lebanon isn't allowed land to air defence and is held back by the US on all military fronts yet after the most brutal bombings hezbollah still crushes the iof in the battlefield
Yes. Nabih Birry was negotiating on behalf of Hezbollah and he gave a speech. He’s head of the parliament and their longtime ally from Amal (who have been fighting alongside the Hizb). Also Hizb MPs have spoken. They declare victory.
