      Yeah. There’s been something of a drought recently though. Most of the headlines I read these days make me cringe like a salted slug.

      Also I don’t know how old Chelsea is now but she looks great in that photo

    also the person that GRIMEs was dating, when musk was freaking out about trans people. 1 , 2punch nailed his entrenched transphobia, the other being her daughter.

        grimes dating chelsea kinda was the nail in the coffin for him going off the “deep end”, its also why he so buddy buddy with jk rowling, she has a similar bizarre hatred, although with a “Feminist” twist, hence the name terf.

          jowling kowling rowling is one of the most misogynistic women I’ve heard of. terf is a misnomer; transphobia has a strong connection to misogyny.

        No it’s because he feels emasculated by having a trans daughter. Because he’s got this weird breeding kink and can’t understand how someone can be born hating penises.

    I respect her but I really don’t think she’s helping here. She’s muddying the issue - not to mention, a lot of people really hate her and Luigi doesn’t need the second-hand hatred.

          I read her book readme.txt, and she comes off as a very thoughtful person to me, much more than other memoirs I’ve read lately. I assume you think she’s an idiot for the files she leaked? Or perhaps you think she’s naïve that she can make a difference using her principled tactics. At least she’s trying, y’know?

      I’m sad to hear this because I really like Manning. You’re might be right though.

          the prison industry

          You’re on their list anyway, the moment you stop being a profit-producing cog in the machine they’ve built, you’re feedstock.

          the 3D printer industry

          Hey if we’re going to choke the planet to death on petroleum based microplastics purely for convenience and the personal enrichment of a few people we might as well give a few of them a bloody nose on the way down eh?
