No “transgender woman (a biological male who identifies as a woman)”?
Does the style guide not apply to cis women? Are your readers only confused when it’s actual real trans women being spoken about?

The fetishisation of fence sitting and appeasement and smart adult politics
You do not gotta hand it to the guy refusing to say NATO countries shouldnt invade each other what the fuck is wrong with you and why are you following me
Going to do something unusual and defend Mike Tapp, what else is he supposed to say?
The consistent UK policy on defence has been "sounds hard." Even after the invasion of Ukraine, we did nothing to build independent capacity, we depend on Trump which means saying ridiculous stuff like this.

The biggest mistake that guy who flew too close from the sun made was that he wanted to experience flying for himself. He would probably still be alive if he just experienced it through his father icariously

Listen. You cannot realpolitik your way out of a situation where the aggressor is simply impossible to reason with. I know what he - and our government - are *trying* to do, but it assumes good faith (or at least good sense) from the Trump regime.
Jeez. Greenland is in the NATO alliance. How hard can this be?

Hey gang! Today we're going to talk about jokes, and how context makes them work, and one really common reason why someone who doesn't know you well might get upset with a joke that uses your good nature as the puchline to a raunchy or edgy joke.

This is obvious when you think about it, because Venezuela isn't filthy rich and hasn't turned its waterfronts into playgrounds for uber-wealthy Westerners to distract from their human rights abuses. If Venezuela's oil reserves were worth anything, they'd have already been exploited.
I happen to know quite a bit about Venezuelan oil.
TL;DR it’s hard to extract, notoriously investor-endangering, isn’t needed (global crude is oversupplied to the tune of 3.3 min bpd) and isn’t easily refined (it’s too dense so always sold at a heavy discount)

Venezuela has the world’s most oil: Why doesn’t it earn more from exports?
Venezuela holds the world's largest proven oil reserves, more than five times more than the United States.

This was the key point of Superman (2025) imo: he's "super" because he's an alien, but he's a "hero" because he's human. Few other Supes stories have made the contrast so explicit.
the idealism of the superhero is that someone, given incredible power and not held accountable by anything except their own moral code, will choose to do good things and help people. because that is, honestly, what most people do when given power and held accountable only by their own moral code
People ask me why do you like superheroes. Aren’t you a little old for all that?
Well what if we had someone like Superman show up on the scene about now? I love superheroes because they represent the best in us and an opportunity with superpowers to make a positive change in a broken world.

I have such a distinct memory of what would have been late 2003, several of us sitting sprawled in the corridor of my halls of residence, first year of uni, 18 years old, chatting shit about politics like you do at that age and saying, "I still can't believe we just...like...invaded Iraq."

Genuinely fascinating scrolling through the replies here. Like, maybe there's something in this Trump Derangement Syndrome thing? Not quite in the way they mean it, but there are certainly people who seemingly dedicate their online lives to riling each other up with bad memes and cutesy nicknames.
oh is the traitors back on tv? none of you have mentioned it??

To point out that Maduro is deeply unpopular across much of Latin America and a potential majority of Venezuelans wanted him gone is not to justify Trump's actions but rather indicate that responses in Latin American societies might not conform with partisan battle lines in the US.

16 hours in, my guess this was all intended basically as a coup to put VP Delcy Rodriguez in power (likely without her knowledge but 🤷).
At least for democracy & human rights, that might be even worse than the "opening shots in a war" scenario.
All speculation, but let me explain:

you simply do not have to preface your statements about this with “but Maduro sucks”
whether or not Maduro sucks is entirely beside the point - we invaded another country and grabbed their leader with no justification other than “we wanted to”
don’t give them cover on it
