If they think that sex is so horrible, why don't they reproduce by artificial insemination? That would spare them the trauma of sex for reproduction.

Are you kidding? A central tenet of their faith is the reproduction should be hugely traumatic for women, because that's their vicarious punishment for sharing a gender with the person who believed the truthful talking snake, in defiance of the lying God.

If God has ordained that childbirth should be dangerous and painful for women, then why shouldn't conception also be dangerous and painful?

Women (like black people, homosexuals, foreigners, unbelievers, heretics, and everyone else who isn't a white conservative christian man of the correct and approved sect) are not supposed to enjoy anything. At best, they're permitted a brief sense of satisfaction at having pleased their husband.

Enduring trauma is a necessary part of ensuring that they don't make God mad and force Him to hit them again.

Imagine that, it's actually Republicans trying to limit your beer choices.

The latest faux outrage on the right is that Biden wants to take away our beer. Here’s the Fox News headline: Biden alcohol czar says US may follow Canada, limit beers to two a week: 'what a joke' The rare Fox News consumer that actually reads more...

So a scientific body will review some health guidelines in a couple of years, hardly breaking news. And certainly no one in the Biden administration is using government power to limit your choices around beer consumption.

In Wisconsin however, Republicans are doing exactly that. Minocqua Brewing Company in the great northwoods of Wisconsin ran a successful brew pub. In 2020, the owner placed a large Biden Harris banner on the building. The area is a pretty red part of the state and it was great to see. A nice break from the huge bizarre Trump banners flying in other places nearby.

But the local government, dominated by MAGA types, couldn’t tolerate a successful business run by vocal supporters of Biden/Harris. They worked furiously to obstruct and undermine the business. The owner of Minocqua Brewing meanwhile started a PAC targeting Wisconsin Republicans, and it became quite successful. From Minocqua Brewing:

You could also look up laws concerning alcohol in Utah. The Mormons, which lean heavily conservative, put a lot of restrictions that bars have to contend with.

Scott Baugh is hoping to flip a Democratic-held House seat in Southern California. Rep. Katie Porter (D), who defeated Baugh in November, is running for the U.S. Senate, creating an open seat.
Scott Baugh, a Republican attorney hoping to flip a Democratic-held U.S. House seat in Orange County, California, said that “wokism” is more threatening to the country than the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, both world wars and the Civil War.

To be fair, I am not threatened by those events. I am extremely unlikely to be harmed by them.

NewsChannel 5 in Nashville, Tennessee, has a great little scoop about a MAGA Republican mayoral candidate in Franklin who appears to be George Santosing her way through her race. It seems we've already got a contender for the most hilarious political face-plant of the 2024 season.

The short version is that Franklin alderman and MAGA Republican Gabrielle Hanson, who appears to have all of the problematic beliefs you would expect of that "MAGA" designation, has been inventing an apparently fictional friend group of people who supposedly support her candidacy. A picture Hanson posted of a supposed "Executive Women's Club" that supports her turns out to be a 2016 image of a Chicago, Illinois, brunch for a group of women chosen for a clothing ad campaign.

Could be but I would think it is more of a Siren Song sort of Fox News tactic. Pretty girl makes some brains dumber than others.

Like Fox News having lots of blonde women on it and lots of women on it wearing short skirts and dresses. Seems like that network is desperate to attract heterosexual male viewers.
....

Seems like a few years ago, there was some Russian media outfit with nude female news readers.

Interesting to note a few things:

It just says “scientists” not “climate scientists” so it is quite possible and in this case likely that many of the earth scientists do not have expertise in climate science

The signed document claiming there is no climate emergency has no scientific results in it nor any citations to scientific results.

Therefore, it can simply be considered an uneducated opinion of non-experts.

I’m not saying they are necessarily wrong, but they’ve given no reason other than a flawed argument from authority for being right.

Also, saying that CO2 is not a pollutant because it is “plant food” is exceedingly sophomoric and essentially destroys any credibility that these so-called “scientists” could have with this field.

Isn't that the report where something like 99% of those who signed were in fields unrelated to climate science? I think that I recall that most of them were MDs

hence the mention of Project Steve. If you're unfamiliar, Project Steve was done to counter the YEC "list of scientists" opposed to evolution, or skeptical or some such mealy mouthed wording. With the restrictions of 1) Actually being in the biological sciences, and 2) named Steve, they came up with roughly 10 times the number of signatures (maybe more, I don't remember the details now).
