New Zealand requires eligible voters to register but not to vote. It's also not enforced though.

Gender affirming surgery isnt uncommon at all in minors, but it is usually for straight children: breast reduction/augmentation, and much much more rarely genital and cosmetic surgeries, and even all of those aren't for transgender children.

Also here's a source, not like you need one as it's fairly common knowledge and easy to find, but maybe someone reading is looking for one. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2808707

To your point though, yes, it's a boogyman.

Dads can have children of all ages, even adult children. I see dad jokes as something that produces a groan but also a chuckle, heavily reliant on puns and broken expectations, not something that is directed at little children, but maybe not raunchy for the sake of shock value. That would be an uncle joke.

I'm happy to see profanity, sex as a topic, etc included.

Thanks for re-evaluating your decision.

Amazing how many Ohio state reps are looking for work right now, but not showing up to any interviews..

Some of them are held prisoners by Nazis.. not everyone has the ability to flee unfortunately. There are levels of resistance but I can't fault absolutely everyone there for being beaten down at this point.

Pete didn't add him, Mike Waltz did. But that's neither here nor there, they all were in the wrong.

You've done right by your daughter. Good luck on the job search!

Oops, looks like this editor missed it too. It's spelled r-a-p-e. Easy mistake to make apparently.

While yes I'm sure it contributed, I think a lot of people voted because their rent and groceries were too expensive, so that means "vote for the party not in power". It makes zero sense, but I have to hope that they're just uninformed and desperate and not eager for what Trump and 2025 crew want.

Ultimately though, it's on them. It was their responsibility to know what they're voting for, and they failed. Now we can only hope they're too incompetent to do what they want.

I already moved. It's not just Trump that's the problem, and even if he loses in 2024, or does in office, the issues still will persist. America needs to figure out how to make the judicial system work properly and norms need to be codified. Vast swaths of the population need to change their culture of "us vs them".

I won't be going back, the way things work with Republicans, you can't just move to a blue state, you have to move out of the country.

Imagine being in hospice and your birthday still has the power to shut down a major world government.

Jimmy is a good man. He deserves that honour.

My partner gave the reply "No, we're just practicing", the lady looked horrified. You asked about a near stranger's sex life, lady. I don't know what she expected.
