    Meh. The Army puts out solicitations for impossible bullshit all the time. It never goes anywhere.

    There is no evidence that any of these “delaying” treatments are safe, and at least some subjects of the treatments have been unable to fully transition later because the delaying hormones left them with underdeveloped micro-genitalia that don’t have enough tissue for a successful transition surgery. And, if they

    How on earth can society recognize that children lack the mental faculty to consent to sexual activity, but also possess the mental faculty to make decisions that will irreparably muck up their development and cause consequences that will affect the rest of their lives?

    “Transition me or I’ll commit suicide” isn’t healthcare. It’s extortion.

    You do know that it is not literally an app on his stupid insecure personal Android phone that lets him ping the entire country whenever he wants just like his Twitter account, right?

    You’ve got it backwards. This upcoming generation has sky-high rates of depression and anxiety, and in many cases it manifests as gender dysphoria.

    Yeah, no. There are two genders. XX and XY chromosomes didn’t stop existing last year.

    So when a six-year-old tells you they want to grow up to be a stegosaurus, you ignore them because it’s meaningless garbage just like most of what comes out of their mouths, but if they make any noises about wanting to be the other gender, you’re supposed to stop everything and transition them immediately?

    Mucking around with childrens’ development for the sake of social media wokeness points is just...criminal irresponsibility. Child abuse. I can’t believe we’re even having this conversation.

    It’s not different. People are just mad it’s coming from Trump.

    The accusation was a dirty tactic by a party that had nothing else to offer. A vague story from 30-something years ago, witnessed by nobody, that somehow magically didn’t surface until just as his nomination hearings were finishing up? Please. This is crass, cynical, and purely political. The Democrats couldn’t find

    Nope. It’s not earned. It’s extracted from the rest of the economy.

    Are we supposed to thank them? That statistic exists because they hoard the vast majority of the country’s incomes and wealth for themselves.

    When you have everything you could possibly imagine wanting, what do you lust for next?

    How naive can you possibly be? They are NOT playing the same game. They are playing on a board so slanted in their favor it looks more like a wall.

    There is no ethical means of acquiring that wealth. If someone burglarizes your home, stealing every last scrap of property you own, and then hands you a dollar...do you thank them? Do you give a shit if they get offended at your lack of appreciation?

    I sincerely believe the world would be a better place if someone picked Bezos off with a sniper rifle and got that immense hoard disbursed to...well, literally anywhere else.

    Last time I changed my running route, there was a hill. Not doing that again.

    Overpowering need to poop, also.
