Being honest, the whole comparison sounds bonkers to the point of offensive. Last time I checked, trans people weren't being gassed in concentration camps as "undesirables". People knew what Hitler was up to from day one. With all due respect, Jews etc. weren't being gassed until AFTER Hi... |

You're right about the Nazi comparison. Also in Britain recently, a well known journalist/talk show host said this: Is it time to crack down on jobless benefits? Nearly 4 million people in the UK are being supported by the state without ever having to look for a job. That's because they've been dee... |

She got started as a nude model for Playboy. Thats not actual "porn". Well, it used to be considered "porn", back in the day. Anyway, a porn star who seems really sweet is Cameron Canela. She did an "ask me anything" on Reddit some time ago. She has done some videos of... |

A lot of the time people who are "anti-trans" are not "anti-trans". Many times they only voice concerns of unintended consequences of pro-trans ideology. Not wanting to use certain pronouns because you believe it's grammatically incorrect or having genuine concerns that male to f... |

It's similar to the attitude of climate change protestors assuming it's a political issue when in reality, outlawing the use of fire to any substantial scale is everything but. Actually, the same political issues -- zoning laws and NIMBYism -- are a major barrier to both. There would be a lot less ... |

Republican states are stricken with Fentanyl overdoses, Diabetes, Cirrhosis, CV disease (the Deep South is called the Stroke Belt for a reason) and quite a bit of homelessness even in non-urban communities where there have been no record rent increases, Gentrification etc. Noticed the same here. No... |

Had the opportunity to speak to some visiting ASD specialists yesterday. I asked them if, in their experience, autistic people were capable of high level manipulation. Their answer? Absolutely! (I already knew this via evidence of my own experience, but it was nice to have it confirmed) <Cenk Uygur... |

£20k UBI is probably too high. £12k would be more like it. Just enough to just about live on. This would replace the personal allowance, so you'd widen the tax base. The very first pound you earn, 20% goes to the tax man. You'd probably also bring in a 30% band at £10,000, or something like that, w... |

I remember once I got down to 150 pounds at my height of 5ft8 by doing more running/cycling. My friends made a lot of remarks about my weight labelling me “skinny”. Also during lockdown I weighed around 158 lbs at my lowest and when my dad saw a photo of me at the time he remarked that I looked ski... |

It's hard to get your mind off having a sense of lagging behind and I think autistics are especially vulnerable to that mindset. I'm a bit rushy but never set out to be like that other than with virginity which i decided to get out the way. It's surprising how many people haven't got flashy cars (if... |

It's just that the people who have the most to say on the subject are usually the ones least experienced on that very subject. The article is even called "Just build the homes" as if building hundreds of thousands of homes is straightforward, yet along housing a massive percentage of drug... |

I assume the people who complain the most won't actually lay a single brick though. It's often how it goes. Brick-laying is usually done by construction workers. Are you saying that construction workers are the only people with a right to complain about the housing crisis? If so, why??? The housing... |

There are lots of ways men and women could find themselves in a secluded spot together. I’ve seen a man when I was out hiking alone. If he had a boner, I didn’t see it; it remained concealed. He could’ve pulled one out and no one would know about it, except for me. It would be impossible to prove. ... |

People don’t follow people into gender neutral single bathrooms. Same for ones labeled “Family,” etc. Why would someone follow someone into a stall differently if there’s a shared hand washing area? These sorts of washrooms already exist in the world and people don’t do that. About the only time mo... |
