Project 2025 is a modern Mein Kampf, so idk if "I'm gonna make my own Mein Kampf! With blackjack! And hookers!" Is the correct response to the Nazi shit we're dealing with now.
Make a plan for sure, but Jesus fucking Christ, guys: branding!
I don't know how current this is anymore - this has been floating around the internet for at least a couple years, and I have no idea if it's being updated, but here's a list of surgeons who will actually respect a woman's decision to receive a tubal ligation or hysterectomy:

Women who are 'of childbareing age' get a TON of pushback from the medical field for wanting to do this, even in the midst of conditions like endometriosis (chronic severe pain in/from the uterus) or even cancer (can fucking kill you).
Word of advice though: DO NOT get a tubal if the idea that it's reversible is a determining factor. They can try to reverse it (reanastomosis), but there's no guarantee it will be successful. Get it only if you're okay with it being 100% permanent. Same goes to any testicle owners considering a vasectomy.
I cast... NON-magic missile!
...I mean... one guy tried, but he's dead now. The rest of us are either bitching into the void, or actively loving all the evil shit coming from this administration.
So, my money's on we'll just continue to bend over and take it.
Creating God - Avenged Sevenfold
...I think it's actually about AI, but this is about as theistic as it gets on my personal playlist.
Shockingly prophetic for something from 2016 - as far as our usage goes, it nailed it.
Hadn't considered this until just now, but the vast majority of surgical instruments are steel - especially German steel. I'm not involved in purchasing, but I wonder if / how much this is impacting the OR's bottom line in US hospitals.
The Pokemon games on all of Nintendo's handheld consoles emulate really cleanly on a smartphone.
I'm a sucker for the Gen 1 nostalgia every now and then.
Best way to play this these days? I have a disk from the early 2000s, but iirc the last time I tried to use it, it just prompted an update that led to a blizzard launcher... idr if it wanted me to buy a new digital copy or what, but I ultimately decided it was more work than it's worth and gave up.
...these days I don't think I even have a CD drive lol.
Private servers with boosted rates can scratch that itch while severely reducing the grind. Every couple years I'll poke my head into one, level to endgame in like a week, do some raids, do some PVP, then completely forget it exists. Couple years later, rinse and repeat.
Like... a red state? We don't deserve him.
But we already have RL ad blockers.
Iirc the legal term is "vandalism". The stakes are higher, but the perk is that one user can block an ad for every user, so think of it as a community effort.
AFAIK, there's no fine print that says "...except when that enemy is the president."
Stop harassing protesters and do your job, troops.
The last 6 months have been a long 4 years.
