If it helps, humans are really really really really really bad at predicting the future. We don't know what's going to happen until it does and even then knowing how that changes what comes after is still unknowable.
For example many of the promises Agent Orange made on the campaign trail would have disastrous consequences for everyone, which might be enough to shift the balance back by the midterms.
So, no there isn't any evidence (at least that I've seen) for trans people being predatory in bathrooms. I have seen lots of stories about trans and "trans-looking" cis women being assaulted, threatened, and harassed in bathrooms. In all fairness though trans people are about 1% of the US population (~3.3m individuals) so statistically it's happened at least once, probably.
This has nothing to do with protecting kids but I wanted to add a few more bible verses that Christians also should contemplate more often.
15 “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
Matthew 7:15-20, that is red text (a typographical feature of some bibles, mostly the king james version, where direct quotes from Jesus are set in red text)
"If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet."
Matthew 10:14, That's also red text.
"If possible, as far as it depends on you, be peaceable with all men."
Romans 12:18
"But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?"
1 John 3:17, a small caveat to this one: brother may refer to other Christians (which is how some versions translate it) but Jesus used brother and sister to refer to all people, and since John was his bestie, it seems like the more fitting interpretation.
Well we'll just have to start celebrating trans kids coming of age like a sweet 16 or quinceanera except unbelievably gay. Sucks for the kids hard to not have access to puberty blockers and hrt (for older teens).
Unless the Democrats grow a spine and put up a fight (I'm looking at you Miss represent-all-Delawareans-except-the-trans-ones) the only thing we're going to be able to do is try to frame it as a rite of passage for trans kiddos.
That's the opposite of what people who have a problem with oligarchs buying the government should do. If you don't have enough capital for real estate investment, you are better off taking your money out of the markets and putting it in something low yield, long term, and stable. Bonds, CD's if you find a good credit union, and those sorts of things.
If you are not already wealthy, basically you're fucked. You can mitigate that by making some (rather large) changes in your life:
Legally I cannot advise anyone to take any actions that would risk destabilizing the US or its economy and you absolutely should avoid engaging in these activities:
Bad Dye Job Artifact Equipment, 2 colorless mana
Equipped creature gains -1/-1, poison, and loses all other abilities.
The stock used for book covers is actually just paper believe it or not. It has a plastic-y glossiness because of the ink. The process is really cool, but I used to be a graphic designer and love print shops so I fully admit I am biased.
I love all the day players that are the villain/vicitms of the week. It's kind of hilarious to see the same actors again and again, but also a lot of them were also on Babylon 5.
The characters are mid and despite there being six seasons there are only four episodes:
The decentralized nature of federated social media is the only advantage it has. But it's kind of a wash. The big social media platforms have resources and weight they can throw at resisting state level surveillance. The operator of the Mastodon instance you sign up for probably doesn't have a lawyer on retainer let alone the army of legal experts Facebook or X could throw at the problem. That said you can always change instances or use multiple ones to begin with.
Capitalists also say "You'll own nothing and be happy", the part they leave out is that it's because you will rent every from them. In filthy socialism, the state holds everything in trust for the people and nobody makes any profits from ownership (the true power of capital).
Or she wants something from him enough to ignore it. The leaders of maga are almost entirely cynical. Men like Trump, powerful and vain, attract predators that sometimes look like sycophants. "Oh sweetie you banged me like a man half your age, and they say you're not virile." "They probably think that because you are letting the libs walk all over everyone." "Of course you are if they're doing it and you're God's messenger on earth they succeed because you let them" "Oh silly, I don't know anything about that, but steve was talking about something interesting the other day"
The theoretical benefits of Gentoo or Arch are completely negated by the fussy nature of those systems. You have more control, but to get it you have to do a lot more work. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, just that's the main difference between arch, gentoo, and a more streamlined distro.
Really it depends on what you want out of your distro. If total control is what you're after, then gentoo is only the beginning of a deep k hole that ends in LFS and a ricing habit. Personally I like using my computer as a tool to do other stuff so anything more hands on than debian stable just gets on my nerves or turns me into a ricing addict. But I had to install gentoo to figure that out.
Gentoo is a filter. You either love it and continue diving or learn you want something else from your OS.
In my 20's I had three dreams. The first I was at my parents house preparing for a zombie invasion. I knew we would be fine if I found "it" (no idea what it was) but was unable to in the dream. The second dream I was at the office trying to find "it" again and knew I only had three chances. The third dream I was in the desert at the mouth of a skull shaped cave. I had a shovel and knew it was my last chance to find "it". I failed and awoke knowing I had lost something important but undefinable. The dreams were all about a month apart and so vivid they felt real.
Another interesting note on my dreams is almost all of the really intensely real dreams I've been able to recall take place in different parts of the same "world". Sometimes in the dream I can recall other dreams and where they are in relation to the current dream, most often I make the connection after waking.
