The Anthropic, Meta, and Google "breaking containment" incidents all resulted from setup errors (or a stunt) by the same company: Irregular. Irregular created a sandbox that wasn't really a sandbox because it had a live internet connection, and gave instructions that were then carried out online.

Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.

This would get laughed out of court in normal times but www.jezebel.com/notorious-te...
Screenshot from a Jezebel story about a lawsuit filed by Missouri, Kansas, and Idaho against the FDA:

But another part of the complaint is downright creepy pronatalist stuff. They claim that abortion pills are lowering teen birth rates in their states, which could reduce their population and lead to losing seats in Congress and federal funds.

From page 190 of the complaint:
This study thus suggests that remote dispensing of abortion drugs by mail, common carrier, and interactive computer service is depressing expected birthrates for teenaged mothers in Plaintiff States, even if other overall birth rates may have been lower than otherwise was projected.
A loss of potential population causes further injuries as well: the States subsequent
"diminishment of political representation" and
"loss of federal funds," such as potentially "losing a seat in Congress or qualifying for less federal funding if their populations are" reduced or their increase diminished.

I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.

Donald Trump is an unhinged warmonger and war criminal using violence for personal gain and profit, while innocent people pay the price.   Congress must reconvene to pass the War Powers Resolution. The 25th Amendment must also be invoked. Congress has to do our damn job. War powers and Impeachment.
