If only trans people and their families were real and capable of speech, then perhaps reporters could speak with them and ask them their opinions about things. Unfortunately this is not possible with today's reporting technology for some reason

Vote NO on 414, Tucson. This tax is regressive, and we need more community support, not more support for law enforcement.

The world’s richest men can’t buy themselves into being tolerable. Just the biggest collection of weenies you ever did see, so desperate for acceptance that they’re malleable and weak and bland and, in turn, destructive as hell. SMH.

Here's the thing people who complain about California don't understand: Los Angeles is incredible. So many small towns in one big city. So many people who love it so deeply. LA's soul is beautiful and generous.

I like the part in “Shoop” by Salt ‘n Pepa where she says “I swear, I stared, my niece my witness” because most songs don’t even bother to include independent third party verification of their claims.

The President of the United States will come into office with his own social media platform.
That, combined with X, means Trump will have turnkey state-run media.
I don’t think the media has fully grasped that yet.
