The Supreme Court just re-legalized conversion therapy. Yet if it were effective, there'd be a hell of a lot less straight women.

It's clear that rightwing agitators are flocking to Portland to distort what's happening, pick fights, and create incidents so the Trump Administration can escalate their punitive plans. As this piece by the Star Tribune lays bare, those plans include turning the US military against Americans.

As global markets turn away from the US dollar/Treasury market, it's prudent for the skeptical Left to start understanding Bitcoin. Love it or Hate it, at least understand it.

McGovern: People voted for lower egg prices, not for a Middle East Mar-a-lago. People did not vote to send their sons and daughters into the tunnels of Gaza so that Jared Kushner and Donald Trump can build Trump Tower Gaza.

The National sang about being "half awake in a fake empire" back in 2007. It's 2025, and I'd now like to be fully asleep.

Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.

The image is from a "Transparency Center" document and lists guidelines regarding acceptable and prohibited content for insults. It mentions:

1. Insults about:

Character, such as cowardice, dishonesty, criminality, and sexual promiscuity or immorality.

Mental characteristics, including but not limited to accusations of stupidity, intellectual capacity, and mental illness, as well as unsupported comparisons among politically correct (PC) groups based on inherent intellectual traits.

2. Highlighted section:

The document allows allegations of mental illness or abnormality when tied to gender or sexual orientation, referencing political and religious discourse about transgenderism and homosexuality. It also acknowledges the non-serious use of terms like "weird."

Why are so many bots following me? I'm a negligible player in social media with zero interest in sharing my banking information or meeting barely legal women. Like, come on, I'm not Matt Gaetz!

The modern-day Chanukah miracle is that the 2 AA batteries in my LED light menorah lasted 8 nights. All due respect to candles, but I'm m paranoid about housefires.

I'm delighted by the healthy skepticism the BlueSky community shares for mainstream media. Yet, I'm continuously shocked by the anti-Bitcoin rhetoric that's constantly regurgitated. The Left will lose more elections if we conclude a decentralized monetary system belongs exclusively to the Right.

A doctor at Kaiser asked for my consent to use AI while charting, then pushed back when I withheld it. I told him I was exercising my right to resist within the diminishing window of time I have left to choose. Small win, as I await my antibiotic.
