Love ya' but we are a month past, "can you believe the hypocrisy of these guys?"

So why would they be doing this? Do they think hrt will be banned & they're tapering their patients? Are they trying to help people build up stockpiles (that would require leaving the actual prescription alone & just telling us to take less)? I keep randomly finding trans women this is happening to.

We were founded by wealthy white business owners. They assumed they'd always be in power and always maintain an air of propriety to maintain The Club.

Why lower your dose? I'm on the other side of the country and my doc just did the same. I've been on that dose for decades and my bloodwork is the same as its ever been but suddenly it was, "a bit too high".

Ah. They're "troubled". Is that good, or bad?

Dang, that Silent Generation had it good.

They knew they were working on COBOL systems, they just didn't known anything about COBOL. No worries, right?

AI, probably?

What we need is an opposition party to work against him and the rest of the Republicans.

Imagine if the governors from say, California, Oregon, Washington, Illinois, Colorado, New Mexico and a few others had suddenly grown spines and spoke up to support her.

It was still worse than that. "I am - we are the federal law"

FDA: "There is no one available to take your call. At the tone, please leave your name, phone number and a brief description of why you are calling. If this is about a new drug certification, please try again later."

dems: Layoffs, inflation and flat tires are complex issues that require careful examination of the underlying social causes and economic policies.

A: What did Dems do in the last several 2-year periods when they had a trifecta? Did they ratify the ERA? Did they eliminate the Comstock Act? Did they pass LGBTQ protections? Did they outlaw racist cops? Did they...oh, this could go on forever.

Also Dems: I'm sorry I'm not in right now, I'm on my book tour. It's called, "ABCs of Democracy", look for it at your favorite book store!

Trans people: The election is over, can you stand up for us now? They're erasing us from public life in America & ignoring supreme court rulings on job discrimination. Democrats: See? More leftists!

I believe with Musk this week, Sen. Warren used the word, "invited" when "subpoenaed" would have been a bit more direct.

I agree! I think he assumed he was making a clever wordplay.

It's funny and all but trigon is a word, and it's a correct name for the 3-sided shape with 3 vertices. Greek uses it (trígono/trígona pl.). "-gon" means angle, just like triangle.

It feels like so many people in positions of traditional relative power are afraid for multiple reasons to push back at all. As if they think that them pushing back will instead move things forward for the Nazis.

Putin, to Trump: You need to raise the frustration of the poeple a little higher and a little higher until they lash out. Then you get to do the martial law.
comment in response to post
But they're not even holding them in contempt! Judges are part of the problem; they are terrified to test the limit of their power since obedience to their rulings when it comes down to it is just another "rule and tradition" if it's the Executive that's being told what to do.

Says the guy who voted 'yes' on HR77, the so-called Midnight Rules Relief Act that says Congress can disapprove multiple regulations under one joint resolution of disapproval.

folks is it good when the people insisting on the eradication of your minority group gain power and switch to asserting that your group never existed to begin with? I haven't read any history ever.

Rather than restoring the previous status quo, the next Democratic administration should remove gender markers from identification entirely to protect privacy, prevent harassment, and reduce bureaucracy aridrennen.substack.com/p/the-cultur...

So they're just woefully incompetent and keep releasing to their shareholders updates that should be embarrassing and show no real progress? That doesn't make sense, either? Please note, I'm not arguing I'm right; something just doesn't seem to add up esp. given the expenditure.
comment in response to post
My guess is to hide the expenditure because they're sure they've got something new and big? It's no worse an idea than what they're doing now - unless they are purposely releasing low-res VR demos showing little progress so that the final release is "groundbreaking" in their plans.
comment in response to post
What if they're not spending it on VR but instead on AI and the VR is just a cover so nobody knows?

Thank you - like the SF Giants?

Is this the one where they kick the round ball or the funny shaped one?

On WHAT??? Musk has 100 workers and does everything by proclamation. What exactly are his costs?

Uuuuuugh! I forgot that one.
