So here’s an experience of Existing While Female in 2025.
I need my roof and gutters cleaned. I called a bunch of places and most didn’t get back to me or were actually gutter cover companies that don’t actually clean your gutters unless you buy.
Found a guy. He came for an estimate. And then:

A woman on TikTok did a very simple experiment:
With SNAP benefits paused, would churches give a poor mother with an infant who was starving a can of baby formula?
Spoiler alert: the Protestants failed.

None of these men can face the fact that certain revelations mean they should quite simply disappear from public life. Yes, that's right, gone. After what's come out, there is no workplace where you would be a positive presence. Go.
Larry Summers tells @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social
he’s stepping back from all public commitments in light of his messages with Epstein, saying he is “deeply ashamed” and hopes “to rebuild trust and repair relationships.”
He will continue teaching.

If there is no legitimate fear, and I cannot imagine that there is, that someone is going to kill you if you say "hey, don't you talk to her like that" like any decent human being should, then this is a complete failure of every single person present.
I’m not going to pretend it’s easy to say something in the moment when you witness the president do this and you’re aboard Air Force One with all the uniformed officers and secret service and fancy wood accents, but this is really an instance where you should. people.com/donald-trump...

Brevetoxins are potent neurotoxins produced by certain algae and cause significant health problems (“red tide” is one form). Even if you don’t care about marine life, you can get sick and even die just from breathing air near a shoreline w/ brevetoxin-producing algae. Climate change will kill us all
Harmful algal bloom (HAB) spread across 20,000 km2 & resulted in the deaths of millions of marine animals, from at least 550 species
Scientists found a novel, significant brevotoxin-producing algal species, Karenia cristata, in the multispecies Karenia HAB—1st time brevetoxins have been found in 🇦🇺

In which a white cop sticks his elbows out while walking the wrong way to assault Black men just doing their fucking job, so he can act like an aggrieved victim and maybe start some shit because he's a racist piece of shit on a resting state power trip. America.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.
