Society would improve greatly if men took their trad gender roles seriously, and went John Wick mode on Republican politicians when their wives are unalived by Republican policies.
NEW:
In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant.
She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency.
Then she died.

The only journalist whomst appears in my dreams is Hasan Piker
The prose is incoherent & the only way to make it through a paragraph is to rely on the North Star or her self-pitying narcissism. The gist of this graf is “strangers obsess about me, must be because I work so hard,” but it is almost immediate lost in the morass of “typed on notes app while hiking”

This may become a load-bearing skeet. Read it to the end!
It's getting harder and harder to deny that AGI is a near certainty. This kind of rapid expansion, this level of investment and infrastructural shift, this amount of *risk* - it doesn't happen without astronomical reward. The other day I saw a big barn, which can only mean one thing: giant horses

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

I am antifa and I agree with Ms. Jeffery on this. Infosec obsession is a massive self-fulfilling prophecy for the Left (the prophecy being that leftists will be punished for their dissent).
All the people who saw only risks in asking/giving email to organizers did not understand these marches are not just a one-day thing

Mayor Johnson's office confirms that he did, indeed, call for a general strike at the Chicago "No Kings" march when he said: “If my ancestors, as slaves, can lead the greatest general strike in the history of this country, taking it to the ultra-rich and big corporations, we can do it too!”

This is a mind bogglingly positive result just one year in. Chiloquin is *far* upriver, past Upper Klamath Lake, which itself has been the site of much restoration work over decades
Kudos and blessings to everyone involved

For the first time in more than 100 years, Chinook salmon have been spotted at the confluence of the Sprague and Williamson rivers in Chiloquin, the government seat of the Klamath Tribes in Southern Oregon.
Salmon clear last Klamath dams, reaching Williamson and Sprague rivers
Just a year after four dams were removed, a group of fall Chinook have migrated nearly 300 miles into the Upper Klamath Basin.

To be fair, in this time of iPads, the children who are not disabled are the ones in need of "special" education.
There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.
America’s children deserve better than this.
