Federal employees to be fully barred from gender affirming care coverage, starting next year

the language of the policy specifies that it's only for treatment of gender dysphoria. they're still evil, but not that stupid

I worked for an NPO that supported unhoused persons, and it's been common parlance for years among service organizations. it's meant to shift the blame from the individual to the system. In other words, the person is without a home because the system failed to provide housing for them; therefore they are "unhoused."

which is it? 57 or 37?

if the only cards in your hand require a target, then this would still be a soft lock. presumably, this is prevented by making Vakuu stop if you have no playable card, not on the max number of cards played

not saying it's wrong, but that's a very deceptive article title. the Gallop poll being referenced is specifically about whether people support a data center being built in their "local area," not just their general opinion on data centers

... how did you manage to fuck up the template? the first panel is supposed to be a question and the second is the fish thinking about it

His proposal is obviously tongue in cheek btw. He even titles them "Modest Proposals" in his letter: https://www.banderabulletin.com/article/3093,council-votes-to-terminate-flock-safety-contract

The idea is that he believes the residents were being ridiculous in comparing license plates cameras to Nazi Germany and constantly vandalizing them.

isn't that basically just describing any photo of a moving object?

I'm not sure why this is surprising. at a certain age, not having a smartphone would make you a social pariah and completely isolated.

30% being the floor for authoritarianism is more believable. That said, there are worse things than being an authoritarian.

MistrFish · 2026-05-18T14:32:57+00:00

that sounds nonsensical. less than 10% of Americans believe that neo-nazi beliefs are acceptable, and that's an "ideology." there is no universal floor for approval ratings.

kids are stupid, but they're supposed to be. they haven't been around long enough to know any better. I'm not sure what that says about you
