That’s just farming, only on a reeeeeeaaaaly small scale.
Which drives the partisanisation of the media. Bozo is right about one thing: the trust in media is at an all time low in the US and trust is build through accurate and unbiased reporting. Endorsing politicians is biased as hell.
The newspapers repudiation of a fascist in dangerous times would hit that much harder had they not endorsed other politicians in less dangerous times.
So now it’s damned if they do, damned if they don’t… swallow that pill they must at some point. But it would have been an easier pill to swallow after the rule of fascism in the US had been averted.
As if “person” wasn’t clearly a gendered word for regressives.
Co-ops are a good thing, unionized co-ops (if the workers aren’t the owners anyway) is even better.
Consumer-owned does still have a big potential of conflict between owners and workers, a union can absolutely help with that.
An even better model is a multi-stakeholder co-op where consumers and workers both own shares.
Meh, easy way to get rid of the mice
The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.

Get your hands on some german Fanta. It’s the good slightly less shitty stuff.
The color difference alone says it all:
Don’t discount the other generations culpability in this though. Conservatives aren’t a problem we can simply wait out. Newer generations are doing slightly better but even among GenZ there are many who would agree with the current system if it were more in their favor instead of the boomers. Education and propaganda are getting worse, GenZ identifies more religious than Millenials, disinformation keeps getting more and more widespread in a social media ecosystem that has - for younger generations - for better, but also for worse, largely replaced the news.
In short: Femboy is about presenting as a very feminine man, men doing that can include trans men.
Slightly longer: It’s why there are different categories for sex, gender assigned at birth, gender identity and gender expression. A femboy would identify male and express feminine. The opposite is a tomboy, somebody who identifies as female and expresses in a masculine manner, both are not necessarily linked to the individuals sex and/or gender assigned at birth.
Trans refers to a different gender identity than the gender assigned at birth and doesn’t come into play here.
Like Germans
Twix was called Raider in many european countries, above all all german speaking countries, don’t ask me why. When they got renamed to Twix in 1991 about 70% of all countries that offered the bar already called it Twix.
The renaming happened with the slogan “Raider heißt jetzt Twix, … sonst ändert sich nix” broadly “Raider is now called Twix, … nothing else changes”
The Slogan ofcourse was used by many german speaking comedians and satirists when it came to Twitter… “Twitter heißt jetzt X, … sonst ändert sich nix.”, with the added bonus that a lot changed, for the worse, underlining Muskian lies.

Embrace the Rot by Endless Taverns.
I play a high level D&D spore druid who worships the rot as the culmination of the circle of life and death. He’s also, due to our campaign turning us into the heirs of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, currently wearing the mantle of the second horseman “Pestilence”.
It’s just… the song is perfect, it’s his theme song now.
Raider is now Twix
Twitter is now X
Twitter X
Twix
Same same
Republicans: Naziism was a left wing ideology! It means National Socialist Workers Party!!1!
