Just a little fake quip that came to my mind:
Republicans cancel Trans AM vehicles because they can't figure out what gender they are.

ICE attempted and failed to disappear a food delivery guy.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

If I needed a delivery guy, I'd hire that one in a short minute.

JK Rowling goes after Emma Watson
Last week, during an interview with podcaster Jay Shetty, Watson addressed the difference in views between herself and Rowling when it came to transgender rights.
Watson, who played Hermione Granger in the film adaptations of Rowling’s Harry Potter stories, said a conversation with the author about trans equality was “never made possible” but she still hoped that she could “keep loving people who I don’t necessarily share the same opinion with”.
In response, JK Rowling wrote a long post on X, slamming Emma Watson’s comments in the podcast interview.
In it, she accuses Watson of having never experienced “adult life uncushioned by wealth and fame,” adding that “Emma has so little experience of real life she’s ignorant of how ignorant she is. She’ll never need a homeless shelter, she’s never going to be placed on a mixed-sex public hospital ward. I’d be astounded if she’s been in a high street changing room since childhood. Her ‘public bathroom’ is single occupancy and comes with a security man standing guard outside the door.”

This Is Clearly The Guy You Want Running The Pentagon (Not)
Quote:Pete Hegseth is crumbling under the pressure of leading the Pentagon.
The defense secretary—who prefers the moniker “Secretary of War”—is being described by staffers as “manic,” erupting into fits of rage and tumultuous tirades, the Daily Mail reported on Monday.
While he’s always been temperamental, two staffers claim the former Fox News star’s mental state has reached new, frenzied heights after the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk earlier this month.
They said Hegseth is becoming increasingly “obsessed” with his own security and exhibits frenzied behavior, such as fidgeting and pacing during meetings.
“‘There’s a manic quality about him. Or let me rephrase, an even more manic quality, which is really saying something,’ an insider told the outlet.
“Dude is crawling out of his skin,” another source said.
