The medical system does not listen to women. Personnel evaluate women in advance of examination and determine that they are faking, attention seeking, or just fat. This results in women dying from medical neglect. This problem is global.

I am sickened at seeing society crater on the standards of basic human beings, into a pile of hateful, writhing knots of paranoia. How fucking weak. What if say, we make a law that Conservatives can’t use basic facilities? After all, that IS a choice, right? They chose to be hateful twats, so, no bathroom facilities for them. Right?

F47 standing with Xi looked defeated and even scared. He wouldn’t answer reporter’s questions about Taiwan, at all. Then he muttered something to Xi and they walked away. Xi walked like a victorious conquered, and f47 slumped like a broken man whose feet were in buckets of his own piss. Kinda had that Helsinki vibe where Putin grinned while f47 cratered and sweated like a pig at a luau. America’s World standing is gone. We must fight for what we have at home.

Oh, in that case, bang on. I thought it was about the US. And yes, the UK has Fubar’d the place into a pit. I think what is evident more than ever is that Greed and Grift have overrun the top positions of Western Govts. People vote, but 2 things on that: Not enough people vote or are doing so informed or proactive, so politics fails the nation, and the lazy see that as a reason to not be involved— and that’s the msg carried by media, a shrug. Involvement in the process is absent.

when the laws were enforced unequally: the bigger the criminal the lesser the consequences, and corporations can kill without a single member of their boards going to prison, but shoplifting would get a black man prison time, and we allowed this unevenness to persist and grow, we undermined our own democracy. We became enamored of the independent individual and shunned the protection of the collective as if it implied weakness. Greed became “bold”.

Haida Gwaii, where I lived with Hubs for 9 years, has had disastrous flooding.

Infantino debased the FIFA org repeatedly without consequence and this step was mutual arrogance if you ask me. So now, these complaints, at the very least, are a chance for FIFA to regain some respectability at the cost of Ifantino being humiliated in court. Until there are real consequences for bad acts by wealthy, powerful or authority persons, this will only get worse. Laws and Rules become a public joke.

that doesn’t work for everywhere or everyone. Military has to use the approved FAX, and that no longer exists. Deployment means address changes. Most are last minute, you don’t get time to go visit Registrar of Voters, so it has to be done online, and what you get has to be FAXED. This is disenfranchise a majority of overseas military.

ATTENTION: I just learned that the DoW (formerly DoD) made it impossible for military stationed overseas to vote by mail: Ballots used to be FAXED to their Sec of (each) state, but now the FAX system has been removed. This has disenfranchised a LOT of voters.

When we lived on Haida Gwaii, the Haida are prominent all over the island and their reserves are north and south. Our friends were in both. We noticed the baggies of water over doorways. Hubs ‘assumed’ , so did others, it was some sort of ‘spiritual’ thing so no one asked. I asked. “Keeps the flies out.” They could keep their doors open and the flies stayed out. There were no flies in those homes. Just ask and the world opens up, lol.

*Curtsies* I also know a really neat trick for keeping dogs from crapping on your lawns. Place a plastic jug (clear or translucent) half filled with water every 20 - 40 ft. Not in line. I don’t know why this works but it does. You can move them every so often so you don’t kill the lawn under them, but dogs will avoid your yard
