25 years I’ve worked in tech as a gay man. If there’s a secret gay mafia running everything you’d think I’d have stumbled upon it, instead of near infinite wildly entitled straight white men who have barely read a book giving a tiny amount of venture to women, people of color and LGBTQA+ people.

Chair of Anchorage Young Republicans solicited a 13 year old to his home to ply her w drugs and alcohol so he could rape her (to "celebrate" his birthday 🤮) but her mother rescued her

The charges are connected to an incident in October involving a 15-year-old girl he allegedly enticed to his Anchorage home through the social media app Snapchat, for "the purposes of sexually exploiting the child to celebrate his birthday," according to court documents. Documents say the girl's sibling alerted their mother, who used a tracking app and drove to his home and intervened, and called the Anchorage Police Department. Court documents say the mother "entered the residence, struck Valdez once in the face, and recovered the child who exhibited signs of extreme drug or alcohol intoxication and had difficulty walking and maintaining consciousness." Police arrived, the documents say, but Valdez had fled the home.

It's infuriating that every journalist, since Trump's 2024 campaign, has been incorrectly discussing Trump's tariffs as though they're economic policy. They're not. They're a primitive coping mechanism, employed by a psychopathic toddler to soothe his pain when he feels fragile and wounded.

A lot of people, including me, were wondering how an IRB could ever approve this study.

The answer is that no IRB did. The person who “signed off” on approval from the only ethics board that reviewed it had resigned three years earlier. His signature was used without his knowledge.

It’s a Wonderful Life bank run scene.

“You're thinking of the $175 billion in tariff money all wrong. As if I had the money back in a safe. The money's not here. Your money's in the White House ballroom, the renaming of the Department of Defense, the $10 billion transfer to the Board of Peace, and a hundred other unauthorized actions.”

well, if you just apply the rule of:

-if a Democrat is President, he has no rights or powers

-if a Repugnant is President, he has king-like powers and he gets to punish US citizens he deems enemies of him personally
