Seems fundamentally unfair that men whose most honed skill is golfing with clients make so much more money than these guys.

Whether it’s Benjamin Netanyahu empowering Hamas, presiding over a massive intelligence failure that let them kill 1,200 Israelis on October 7th, and then killing 74,000 Palestinians in response or Zohran Mamdani pointing out that he did this, both men have fueled their bitter feud.

Remember when Joe Biden proposed canceling student debt and every single Republican accused him of "bribing voters"?

Biden accused by GOP of 'bribing' voters with student loan forgiveness
The Biden administration unveiled its latest effort to forgive as much as $20,000 in debt for some borrowers on Monday after the Supreme Court struck down its original plan last year.

But also feminism is not a thing that happened and then got reversed; it's a thing that is happening, because you don't overturn three millennia of patriarchy in one lifetime.

The feminist movement in which she was a leader got the legal system to address domestic violence, workplace sexual harassment and discrimination, and so much more that people don't see because they don't remember the world before those changes.

But humans are incredibly crafty, and Dr. Brian Druker found a compound, STI-571, that could be designed for specific protein kinases to block the uptake of ATP and nowhere else. This mechanism wound up being incredibly successful, making a once-deadly disease treatable and manageable.
Blue textured background with text that reads "the solution
Dr. Brian Druker made the impossible possible, with the discovery of compound STI-571.
STI-571 can be designed to bind only to specific protein kinases, and nowhere else.
In cultured cells, this compound worked beautifully at putting the brakes on Abl kinase without affecting other proteins.
But would it work in patients?"
Bottom right corner features a polaroid tapped to the graphic, that has a picture of Dr. Brian Druker presenting a powerpoint on the Abl kinaseBlue textured background with text that reads "The success
In phase 1 trials, all patients who received the highest dose showed substantial responses within less than a month, with limited side effects.
By 2001, the FDA approved the Abl kinase inhibitor, now called Gleevec, the first protein kinase inhibitor ever made.
Gleevec made a once-deadly disease treatable and managable for countless patients.
Prior to this success, such selective kinase inhibition was thought to be impossible, or at least improbable."

No fucking shit buddy. This is what we were trying to tell you.
Milo Yiannopoulos: "I didn't really understand the physical reality of how institutionalized the brutality is in America. The manner in which they arrest you, they put you in manacles, everybody is arrested like an MS 13 gang member. 
It was physically degrading. It was frightening. I don't think I've ever been frightened like that before. I was weeping like an old woman for an hour. I wouldn't wish it on anyone."
