I beg of everyone in congress to have it in your hearts to reconsider any and all anti-trans bills — these bills would lead to the deaths of hundreds, if not thousands of children... Children who need comfort, not reproach.

Mollies in 1700s Britain: “On Sunday Night the 14th of Nov. I went to the Prisoner's House in Holbourn. I found near Men 50 there, making Love to one another as they call'd it. Sometimes they'd sit in anothers laps, use their Hands indecently, Dance & make Curtsies & mimick the Language of women”

I find this hilariously stupid — in 1793, we see the first pennies minted in the US, their design featuring a woman symbolizing liberty... A woman... In 1795 United States... Women could not even vote, nor get any worthwhile education adjacent to what men could get—liberty

Cruelty really is the point. Who else would go to court begging for permission to starve their own citizens? Meanwhile, they send $40 billion to Argentina, buying two private jets for ICE “Barbie,” and Trump has already burned through $1 trillion in less than two months.

The guy who has refused to help war-torn Ukraine now wants to “protect Christians” in Nigeria, says he is “rescuing” Argentina on behalf of the West, and is “combating drug trafficking” in Venezuela.

They all have abundant oil.
What a coincidence.
