I really like how all the financial advice lately is simultaneously "you're about to be broke as hell so maybe you should make your holiday gifts" and "you stupid assholes are ruining the economy by not buying things you don't need"
stupid young people, stop buying a new phone every year if you don't want to be broke. wait no, not like that.

This guy (Tate) is a vicious abuser and slaver of women and girls, and has cultivated this lifestyle not out of need but to seek the approval of other stunted misogynists, often teenage boys. I think the story here is that evil breaks your mind. www.theguardian.com/news/2025/ma...

The destruction of the federal government disproportionately affects black women. The federal civil service has long been a good career option because of the strong equal opportunity enforced in the civil service that has historically blunted the double discrimination that black women face.
Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.
The exit economy is here. Black Women are paying the highest price | Fortune
This isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. And it's not a recovery, it's a redistribution of opportunity.

Nothing is a better demonstration of the anti-scientific nature of banning trans women from sports than the fact that the IOC's OWN STUDY found no evidence trans women have any advantage over cis women in sports, but they're planning on going ahead with banning us anyways

IOC president wants to protect the female category
The International Olympic Committee is edging closer towards implementing a ban on transgender women competing in the female category in time for the Los Angeles Olympics.
Multiple sources expect such a ban to come into effect over the next six to 12 months with the new IOC president, Kirsty Coventry, making clear she wants to drive through her campaign pledge to protect the female category. Continue reading...

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

writers and editors at the times have figured out you can print any lie you want to in the newspaper if you insert the "without evidence" clause somewhere, as if the lack of evidence of the slander somehow makes it newsworthy instead of the opposite

Rand Paul, hemp's strongest soldier in the Senate, told Politico last night that he still plans to try to drag out the shutdown for as long as possible over its de facto ban of THC (which he first signaled he'd do early last week in a convo with hemp trade groups.)

On the same day as his ‘fat jab’ launch, Trump issued new reason to deny visas to foreigners: obesity
The guidance describes obese foreigners as a ‘public charge’ and orders visa officers to guess how much they would claim in benefits
