Another example of why people around the world don’t want to travel to the US. Insurrectionists are being pardoned, American citizens are being deported, https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/trump-admin-deports-2-year-old-girl-who-is-american-citizen/ar-AA1FJ4uN, American citizens being detained at border, https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/18/us/us-citizen-detained-canada. Due process no longer exists, and no one has rights anymore. Your country has become a really scary place.
The first time I heard “separate the art from the artist” was with Roman Polanski. I don’t give a fuck how “talented” he is, he is a disgusting pervert. He drugged and raped a 13 year old child. Anyone who defends that is as bad as him.
I’m not technical. This is just common sense. Does common sense no longer exist? Geezus… 1984
Trump, Putin, and Netanyahu are all psychopaths: Psychology Today: Psychopathy is a condition characterized by the absence of empathy and the blunting of other affective states. Callousness, detachment, and a lack of empathy enable psychopaths to be highly manipulative. Nevertheless, psychopathy is among the most difficult disorders to spot.
I just can’t believe ANYONE would actually do this! WTF??
You don’t. I deleted my FB account years ago. Honestly, I do miss Marketplace, and I wish someone would come out with a buy/sell app to replace Marketplace—without all the BS
Fear of being held and questioned, fear of getting an unplanned trip to El Salvador, fear of kangaroo court systems…
I stand corrected
And you’re a woman, right?
I remember hearing that food engineering was going to solve the planet’s hunger problem. People are still starving, and the rich are becoming richer. Now I’m hearing about “water treatment technology”. Really? Rivers and lakes are drying up. There are unprecedented forest fires, floods, tornadoes, etc. Drinkable water will be more expensive?? WTF? What’s next?? We’re going to have to pay for breathable air?
OK, but did the Doctor insist that your significant other/wife must come in and agree to the procedure?? NO. You answered a lot of questions, and the procedure went forward. It was YOUR decision.
So, if you want to get snipped, does the doctor ask , “does your significant other agree with what you’re doing? Maybe they should be here during this decision”. Does that sound ridiculous?? Well, that’s what women deal with on a regular basis.
Not sure where you’re from. If a woman wants to sterilize in the U.S. it’s a HUGE problem: If you’re married they want the husband to verify your decision. If you’re a young woman, they’ll deny because “you may change your mind”. BUT, a man can get snipped no questions asked.
It’s global. Who the fuck wants to procreate in a world that’s about run out of water??

Stopped in at a BC beer store for a bottle of wine on my way home. I was told their bourbon sales are up 30%. I asked why? Employee answered, “what are they supposed to drink?” I said, “anything but American!” Apparently bourbon drinkers are choosing their drink of choice over Canadian solidarity.
Why is this even a headline? Are Americans that daft?
Seriously. If you are a woman, do you want to bring a child into this world?? Our climate is a disaster, and anyone who “could” do anything about it is doing everything they can to accumulate wealth at the expense of the planet. Fascism and misinformation is rampant. Geezus, people are telling Mothers that inoculations are bad. Think about that… polio vaccines that rescued generations of children from “iron lungs”, leg braces, and death. Those vaccines were developed from science. SCIENCE I’m an old lady now. If I was young and of child bearing years—I would not have children.
This is the mentality of MAGA. SMH
Of course it is. I was using it as an example of the first time I heard, “separate the art from the artist”, and how that term is too often used to excuse deplorable behaviour.
