I've met several transgender women. NONE of them went through the hormonal hell and sometimes surgical steps because they wanted to win in womens sports. IMHO, that goal would be shallow and disrespectful.

Fake news! 1914 was GREAT for America. We invented airplanes and the Model T. Nobody could touch us! All the girls were super hot back then and got married at 15, too. MAGA!!!

Yeah....whoever wrote that needs a middle school English refresher...

Make America Great Again! I thought we were angling toward the late 19th century, but, you're right, all will be correct when we get to the late 14th century.

Wherever religions get out-sized influence in secular societies, their influence wanes.

Look at Europe. 100 years ago they were Church and King States and now their churches are museums and venues for serious events.

I'd wager that he's better at coaching athletes than he is at managing super young girlfriends. In fact I submit that one doesn't have anything to do with the other.

Should be no problem finding 72 million foreigners who want to move here AND have $5 mil. to blow on the deed.

The SS system was programmed in COBOL which has no null set. People who couldn't document a birthday are by default given an 1875 birthyear and told to go get birth documentation.

Holy cow, you hit the nail on the head.

I proposed to the wife that we name our firstborn son Tyrannosaurus. We compromised at Tyler. I proposed Ajax (the Greek hero, not the powder) for the second. Again, I had to compromise.

'Only Fans' and getallmylinks dot com are blocks for me. What should I do with people who have a profile but no posts?

aw, crap, I tried not to post a link. Y'all can say 'OK, Boomer..."

Or in the follows. getallmylinks dot com in the bio is a tell for me, and I'm a noob here.
I'm reluctant to block or report some gal who's just trying to make a buck, but it's not why I'm here. I have found if you ignore a 'follow back' request long enough they fall off the grid.

I'm not here to build a business or a 'following'. I'm here to read insightful posts from bright people and hopefully occasionally post an opinion. I of course follow God. It's easier this way than sitting in a pew and listening to a huckster 'guide' me. Plus it's a direct connection.

More specifically: Substack, Reliable YouTubers like Meidas Touch and Brian Taylor Cohen, Yahoo News and news.google.com.

I'm an analog boomer who lives in Palm Springs and drives an old Caddy while wearing fit-over sunglasses and I adored Walter Cronkite and I have cut the cord. I haven't paid any attention to legacy TV for, like, 4 years. It dead. Owned by Oligarchs. My news comes from the internet.

I think that Uncle Joe doesn't care anymore. Sad, but understandable. He got 15 votes in 2020 from friends and family and 81 M from people who would vote for anyone vs. Trump. But he did nothing for the 81 M and blew out big bucks doing what Trump tweeted about but couldn't accomplish.

My (evolving rules) -- and I'm a rookie here:
* If all pics are of girlie bits - reported
* If all posts are reposts with no comments -- ignored
* If no posts, but there's a sexy profile pic - ignored
* I love pets but don't care to see yours -- ignored
* Fascists - blocked. Not here to argue
