    Giving more than a second of your attention to an article shared on MSN.com is WRONG. Lots of different people believe and say lots of different things. From the article: "In 2021, KUTV states, A Black Lives Matter Utah (BLMU) had a post that was showing significant reactions, surpassing the impact of their street protests. The post claims that individuals who display the American flag are racist and referred to the flag as a symbol of hatred. " An unattributed "post" from 2021 is news worthy? Newsworthy enough to make it into a current "news story" in 2023? Relevant enough for you at actually read it and then think you should share it here for the rest of us, with bonus commentary from you? The real world relevance is overwhelming. This is A+ posting from you, and A+ journalism from The Independent News.

    The stranded assets I was referring to are the brains of people once they become republicans.

    I doubt the base can tell the difference. "I love the poorly educated". Book bans make no difference to those who don't read anyway.

    And they're not. The idea that they ever would be was a myth. We definitely know it's not to do with Facebook, since we've got well over a century of serious study on the topic. Trans people are a very small percentage of the population, but they are not in any way a new phenomenon. This also is more or less the current state of affairs anyway. The only surgical procedures done on minors are, on very rare occasions, mastectomies. These are only done when the kid's dysphoria is so bad that a medical assessment has been made, that the risks associated with doing the surgery are less than the risks that the kid will seriously self-harm or suicide if it's not performed. In the US, the rate is around one patient every few days, nationally. In a population approaching 1/3 of a billion people, that's barely a statistical blip. There are orders of magnitudes more teen girls getting breast augmentations for vanity than there are getting gender-affirming procedures, but the equivalent moral panic is completely absent.

    Surely this much is easily agreed to by most, I think. Of course, we should all be civilized enough to not intentionally, and out of sheer stubbornness, hurt the feelings of our fellows who are struggling with gender identity issues. But mistakes should not be stigmatized socially or penalized legally. The bottom line is that we are way too early in our understanding of the problem of gender dysphoria to have even a solid guess at how much of the condition is owing to nurture or to nature or to Facebook. As we take the time to learn I think the best path is to broadly disagree with the idea of gender reassignment surgery for minors but otherwise just live and let live.

    And tax exempt, so the rest of us must makeup the taxes they don't pay.

    Years ago, I suggested that the wind direction was possibly wrong but no proof. The FBI discussed this possibility in 1973 and established and planned new small area for a ground search, that area was never searched. The new error I discovered confirms 100% that the wind direction used in the LZ analysis was wrong. This is my revised LZ.. The most likely LZ is the top red triangle. Then the probability diminishes as you move south in the quadrants.

    Hi folks, Another one bites the dust: Wood was part of a pro-Trump legal team that launched several challenges to 2020 election results that went nowhere and pushed baseless conspiracies of fraud. Pro-Trump attorney Lin Wood gets law license retired : NPR But, but, the winning. I guess he could not face reality. Jerry Baumchen

    Republicans will likely remain in the station as the only change they like is backwards.

    I think it’s more that prevention is only for things that people you don’t identify with do (e.g. the border wall, transgender anything), while for things that you can imagine doing (using a gun to “protect” yourself in a situation you started and having it go wrong, domestic violence) should be handled after the event, because preventing it might impact someone like you Wendy P.

    6-holed sliders were more valuable back when bulky Dacron suspension lines were fashionable on tandems. Those bulky Dacron lines got even more bulky as they absorbed desert dust and became increasingly fuzzy as they aged. Only the best of packers could minimize tension knots in Dacron suspension lines. They had to walk the lines up at least 3 times to even tension.

    Are you still insisting that the current Supreme Court makeup was made possible by Harry Reid because it feels right to you? Are you also not a supporter of the laws in Texas, Florida and elsewhere that forbid teaching accurate race relations history because some butt hurt white students might get their precious feelings hurt?

    Well, I found a massive error in the investigation.. Over 50 years and nobody caught it. It means that the ground search was in the wrong area.

    The entire case is moot (re: the religious freedom/website one), it should never have been in front of SCOTUS in the first place. I don't say that because I don't like the outcome, I say it because it literally did not meet normal requirements for litigation. The entire case was a hypothetical. There was no client, or company to build this alleged website. It was a woman making up a potential scenario, and saying she worried she *might* fall afoul of the law if she theoretically acted in a certain way in the future. That's not how SC cases work. You need an actual event with harmed parties, for a ruling to be made. If this had been a case with an outcome favourable to leftist causes, you'd be losing your damned mind, and you'd be right to do so. Instead it's owning the libs so you're cackling with glee, even though it's the most blatant case of judicial activism in your lifetime. In the absence of actual harmed parties and a real event, this is by definition "legislating from the bench". Cheering it on is blatantly un-American, and you should be ashamed.
