Jesus Christ what the fuck.

Don’t forget the one idiot Christian nurse who simultaneously held this woman’s hand in the hospital and then reported her to the police because it’s against her beliefs.

And if you are unlucky, police will stop you, ticket you and tell you to tow your vehicle home.

That’s actually if you’re lucky my dude.

If you’re really really unlucky then you slam your truck into a minivan full of kids on their way to school and kill them all because you decided to drive through a layer of Vaseline ice on your windshield and endanger everyone else around you.

What an absolute shitshow of an article from Wired. I know media often leads with fear mongering and hyperbole just for clicks, but this is bordering on dangerous with how they present it as some super mystery that will infect your furry friend.

They include this part:

David Needle, senior veterinary pathologist at the University of New Hampshire, has a lead on what the culprit might be; he thinks it may have been stalking canines for some time. In 2022, Needle’s team began looking at nasal and oral swabs taken from sick dogs in New England, in cases where no known cause of disease was found and the dogs weren’t responsive to treatment. They found a small DNA sequence of a potential disease-causing microbe in 21 of the initial 30 animal samples screened.

And then never elaborate on what the suspected culprit is, just leaving everyone hanging with their own worst case scenarios for what it could be.

The very next part of the information they are sharing, that they for some reason left out was that the doctor found is that it’s very likely being caused by the mycoplasma bacteria.

Which is the same one causing pneumonia in humans right now.

My understanding is these sorts of seasonal infections aren’t uncommon, and it’s likely being exacerbated by everyone returning to social norms, so all the little bugs are getting their buffet back on for the first time in years on a vulnerable population.

Who knows, though. I am not a doctor.

So he just wants to stop the federal government from enforcing pronouns or aliases in government settings…?

When does the government actually FORCE or ENFORCE pronoun usage though, using government money?

Am I taking crazy pills or is he just making shit up?

*Just wanted to say I appreciate all the people replying, the implications of his bill may be more severe than I initially read into it.

I mean it’s pretty well explained in the movie that there is actually an entire ecosystem of giant life forms living in the center of the planet, and that they sometimes accidentally find tunnels out into our world, duh! -pushes up glasses on face-

The congresswoman included a link to a longer statement in which she went on to say, “I cannot uncritically accept Israel’s denials of responsibility as fact,” and said, “Both the Israeli and United States governments have long, documented histories of misleading the public about wars and war crimes.”

She told them the truth, and they hated and silenced her for it. Good job, America!

I mean, he did it by accident in a building entirely separate from the voting. This whole thing is just another case of republicans blowing things way out of proportion for their benefit.

Basically, propaganda.

"We as American Jews believe that 'never again' means never again for anyone, and that includes Palestinians," said JVP, referring to the refrain repeated by the Jewish American community regarding the need to prevent genocide. "'Never again' is this very moment."

Something so common sense will surely fall on deaf ears.

That's also annoying, but it's not as widespread anymore as the pride stuff.

LOL!!!!!

"...and a mouse and keyboard and an android phone to access cloud services, along with an entourage of fellow hackers that are mostly still at large all over the world" doesn't have the same ring to it, I guess.
