Can Orgasms Make You A Better Parent? While climaxing canโ€™t alleviate all parenting-related challenges, it can offer a range of advantages worth embracing.

โ€œStop treating pleasure like itโ€™s dessert, something you get after everything else is done,โ€ said St. John. โ€œItโ€™s a resourceโ€ฆ[that] helps you function, connect and recharge."

Today a court blocked co-Presidents Trump and Musk from shutting down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

This fight isn't over. The case will continue in court, and all of us need to keep fighting for the agency that has returned $21 billion to families who were scammed.

Pete Hegseth put American lives at risk when he sent war plans in a group chat โ€” then he lied to cover it up.

If he doesn't resign, he should be fired.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.
