Fixed my Times subscription, so I'm sharing the article. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/us/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-maga-split.html?unlocked_article_code=1.pU8.oKw0.SqOjRabzAIvP&smid=url-share Of course, she has a long way to go, but I never thought I would have some respect for...

If only more Replicans would speak up like MTG. Yes, even a broken clock is right twice a day. Actually, it seems she's' going in a better direction. Who woulda thunk it? The Trims articles mentioned that she has been working with a few Democrats, and some Dems feel embarrassed about that, but...

Has anyone mentioned this you can't make this shit up regarding how the little orange toddler went nuts because the escalator stopped after he stepped on it? Who but the orange toddler would get upset over an escalator stopping after he got on. Of course, he's not used to having to deal with...

Oddly enough, I found an article from Harvard that claims the opposite of the one that was posted by Toni. Go figure. https://journals.law.harvard.edu/crcl/to-protect-women-legalize-prostitution/

I could show you numerous articles that demonstrate the opposite. To me, it's wrong to make sex work illegal. The actual sex workers who's stories I've read claim that they feel safer when their work is legal and they no longer have to be worried about being arrested or harassed by the police...

Nothing is every perfect but imo, decriminalizing both sex work and drugs far out weighs leaving them both illegal. Regulations would help too. Point being when you regulate both drugs and sex work to a reasonable extent, the people using the drugs and the people in sex industry are both more...

https://www.aclu.org/news/topic/its-time-to-decriminalize-sex-work You can download the rest if you want. I fully agree with the ACLU, as well as many other organizations that are trying to decriminalize sex work to make the work safer and more acceptable to the workers.

Responding to @Toni I worked as a home health nurse for many years, caring for people who often lived in high crime neighborhoods and sometimes having to deal with the potential threat of strange men. One nurse was threatened with a gun in such a neighborhood but luckily she got away. But...

https://oneill.law.georgetown.edu/my-body-my-choice-why-the-decriminalization-of-sex-work-is-essential-for-reproductive-justice/ I rarely agree with Derec, but I do agree with him that sex work should be legalized and sex workers should not be stigmatized. A few years ago when we had this...

https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Antichrist They must have been on some serious psychedelics when they wrote that one.

How many times do I have to tell you people that there is only one type of god, although there are a lot of different species of gods.

Never mind the free stuff. The best part is that we won't have to deal with the obnoxious, self righteous evangelicals who keep trying to save us. Oh wait. That's all bullshit, so don't get your hopes up too much. They'll still be around saving the rapture for another day. :(

My internal monologue keeps asking me why I bother to read or reply to the posts in the political forum. It keeps telling me that many if not most of them sound like, "I know you are but what am I?". You're an idiot, no you're the idiot.....Can you even read?,,,,,,You have the reading...

I just read that but you beat me to it. I'm guessing that sometimes fighting for our rights works, so let's not give up the fight. I'm going to read the entire NYT articles about it so see what it says.
