The forced outing provision of this bill puts teachers in an impossible situation by requiring them to out trans kids to their parents in certain situations—even if the teacher knows the student will likely face physical abuse. Students like these are who Republicans want to put in immediate physical danger with this bill.
Republicans only ‘think of the children’ when it aligns with their backwards worldview.

That’s the point of free markets.


Restored cocoa content aside, most companies aren’t going to cut prices or return product sizes to normal even with reduced input costs; they’ll just pocket the difference.


While fully autonomous “agentic AI” systems are not yet known to be widely used in the piracy ecosystem
Adding generative AI to a piracy site would needlessly increase hosting costs; they’re just using AI as a boogieman to get the order they want.


Cuba should indict Trump for the murder of its 32 soldiers in Venezuela.


People get addicted to drugs, alcohol, and gambling too; that doesn’t make it good for them.


The fascist propaganda machine churns on.


Under the settlement, the county, Weems and Morrow are not admitting any wrongdoing in last year’s ordeal. The county’s insurer will pay the settlement.

The comment I replied to was criticizing the parent comment for stating that this event isn’t consequential to an international audience.
My reflection was that I wish national news programs included more international content rather than focusing on trivial stories with no broad impact they probably pick up from social media.


It always frustrates me when my relatives watch TV news that favors substantial coverage of inconsequential local stories in the U.S. over more significant events internationally.


Rehabilitation of people willing to forgo MAGA and the conservatism that fuels it is one thing, but quotes like “He’s a con man, a liar, doesn’t keep his promises” illustrate that some voters haven’t had a change of heart about MAGA policies, just on Trump’s ability to actually deliver on them.


I don’t have any sympathy for a voter dumb enough and conservative enough to vote for Trump three times in a row.


At least if there were two upgradable RAM slots the end user would have the choice to add a second 8GB card at a later point (or even just one slot for compactness), but that of course isn’t the way Apple does things.


A $600 laptop with only 8GB of RAM was never an amazing deal by normal laptop standards.


VPNs have many legitimate use cases though, unlike prediction markets.
War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength, and discrimination is human rights.
