I know full well the amount of mental work and constant awareness it takes to avoid these kind of men. I don't have the luxury of wandering around thinking complex things through in my brain all the time, because I have to pay attention. Believe me, I'd WAAAY prefer living in my brain thinking...
Going back to Summers' talk about how women don't want to work hard and don't have high end aptitude, we could ask:

What fraction of young men must deal with a creep with substantial power over their career hitting on them using tips from an infamous pedophile? 🤔

Three things:

1) No longer classifying swastikas, nooses, and the Confederate flag as hate symbols is quite bad, and in line with many other actions from this admin.

2) Congrats to the cancel culture moral panickers.

3) I don't think a good political response to this is to shrug at Nazi tattoos.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

Morning… Children are getting ready for school, someone is rushing to work, someone is finishing their coffee.

And suddenly a Russian missile ends someone’s morning forever.

Today — the city of Ternopil. Another civilian home.
I will write: world, do not stay silent!
But will the world hear us?

Corporate tax cuts.
Estate tax cuts.
Overseas income tax cuts.
Pass through business tax cuts.

These are all tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy that Trump wasn’t willing to let expire.

But ACA tax credits to protect health care? Forget about it.
