Compared to NY, NJ is whole new world. Weird left turns from jug handles and weird license plates and that guy in a wife beater driving his Suburban yelling at his cousin Christopher for doing too much coke

When anyone is brutalized, anywhere and anytime, it is on the attackers and the people preaching hate. Not the people advocating acceptance.

UPDATE: Kerry’s down from the tree.

This will not protect you from Notoriously Strong Adversaries.

Sounds very much like an old SAAB 2-stroke, and the layout under the hood looks a lot like really old SAABs with the radiator behind the engine.

There are also the “Geuvedoce” boys of the Dominican Republic I just heard about recently:

There was no SOFA post 2011, that is publicly why we withdrew. I was in Iraq for all of 2011 and was one of the last high-ranging officers to depart in December of that year. I sat on a steering committee as part of the Strategic Framework Agreement team at the US Embassy in Baghdad and I can tell you that the…

A few things: first of all, she’s been saying terrible things for a while, for years. And not just about trans women! She seems weirdly okay with female genital mutilation and having sex with underage boys. So we can’t really say that this is something that people are “reacting” to, as though it wasn’t in play…

I’m a man with a voice I never earned in a feminist space. Do with that as you please.

Her views are trans-exclusionary. That trans* women are not, in her view, “real” women, since she takes an essentialist stance on gender. If you don’t have the parts, you can’t be “of” them, even though we now understand gender to be more fluid instead of binary, and that any one person may exhibit either, or both of…

trans women are acknowledged and respected within intersectional feminism. kimberle crenshaw included them in her definition:

Intersectionality revolves around recognizing axes of privilege. Since she’s denying that trans folks lie at the less privileged end of a gender identity axis, and as far as I can tell doesn't agree such an axis exists, she's either a shitty intersectional feminist, or not one at all. The two are not meaningfully…

I mean, saying you can’t be a woman if you’re not born with the right body parts is essentially reducing women to a walking uterus. And that’s kind of what we’re against.

There’s a not-uncommon and particularly stupid school of feminism that sees transgender women as some kind of evil infiltrators that want to become women to take over the narrative or I can’t even, but that’s what this is.

I’ll say it again: Feminism without intersectionality is just various shades of bigotry.

Transphobia is more than just a disagreement or freedom of speech. It’s dangerous ignorance. Imagine if there was a speech on how homophobia is a mental disease. If people are respecting gays now, then transpeople need that respect too. This mentality is not just a point of view. It’s fuel to transphobic crimes. Trans…

Ms. Greer has been a valued voice, but this ongoing transphobia from fellow second-wavers is disappointing and discouraging. Move into the twenty-first century, please.

Sadly, there’s a caveat to HIPAA in that medical personnel are required to provide the files when a subpoena has been delivered. Which in this case there has.
