to safely dispose of these hats, eat them. natural fibers — such as cotton, wool, silk, and linen — breakdown in the digestive track. synthetics do not. thus, if you eat your hat, the synthetics will pass through the other side. smush through the poop to find the synthetic fibers and recycle them.

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

While obviously it is not “punishable by death” to say military personnel should disobey illegal orders (which is, of course, true) it’s certainly disturbing for the president to be saying this to his millions of deranged followers.

One way I thread the needle is this: women are not responsible for internalizing the misogyny that they are raised in. But they are responsible, as adults, for deconditioning those values, and for developing the quality that only becomes possible in their absence: self-respect.

Another woman killed by an abortion ban.
NEW:
In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant.
She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency.
Then she died.
