Wait, you're telling me Republicans (Trump Party) are focusing on hurting minorities via a culture war instead of passing meaningful legislation to help struggling Americans?
The fact that I've been witnessing them do this for my entire lifetime didn't prepare me for this.
What happened to conservatives? What happened to "my rights end where yours begin". This shit is asinine, absolute trash.
The trans folks I know are the most joyful, positive people I know. They do not deserve to be stripped of their joy and identity. The next 2 years I suspect will be a long, hard road.
The next 2 years
Lol. It's gonna be a lot longer than that. We're entering a period of American decline that will likely last for a generation. Remember, the majority of voting Americans voted for this. That problem doesn't just go away.
Pretty sure this is the year I'll finally lose my mind. Last night was absolute chaos trying to keep up with the EOs.. I am tired. While these get caught up in courts and fought against, they're going to happen regardless in the interim. So many people are going to be impacted, negatively. The rage...
Fuck 'em title 19 still applies.
Reminds me of some state laws that have been voted for, and sometimes even enacted, that defined PI as three (or worse, even 4). Just because an uneducated jokel in the White House signed a piece of paper, scientific reality won't just bend to his wishes.
What's next? Will he declare Ohms law illegal? Forbid gravity?
As an electrical eng student you had me at Ohm's law.
2+2=5
Calm down, ChatGPT
gonna tell my 6,000 sexes of mushrooms to stop fuckin
lol so you can just sign executive orders to declare new facts into reality? why don't you declare people can fly, that would be cool.
New facts lmfao
As per executive order, the earth is now flat.
declare pi is 4 via executive order
Madness!
But people can fly
On planes, for long periods of time
Or gliders for Shorter periods
or from windows for even shorter periods. Very popular in Russia
nah that's not you flying. I don't know why people say it like that in English but that's just riding on a plane. same as riding a horse doesn't mean the person is galloping.
Those are fake forms of flight! There are two modes of biological flight. Flight and non flying. You cannot become the other!
