The number of legal abortions in Poland doubled in 2024, while complaints to Polish authorities over conscience clause refusals in the country have apparently ceased. The government had told hospitals they are obliged to provide abortion on the legal grounds of a woman's mental health.
You've all heard of the Resource Curse: countries are impoverished by rich resources in their territories, as these trigger colonial looting.
Now we see the Base Curse: if you host a US base, you don't enhance your security. You make yourself a target.
I can't even find the words to express how repugnant and despicable this post is.
People who spew such Islamophobic bile don't belong in the United States Congress. The job of elected officials is to combat hate, not fan its flames. (1/2)
To the "I didn't vote for this" folks. You voted for a convicted felon. A twice-impeached president. A man found liable for sexual abuse, who tried to overthrow an election. And now gas prices are surging, we're at war, and soldiers are coming home in coffins. This is what you voted for. All of it.
Sweetie, we’re in a war now with the US and Israel genociding Iran. And I didn’t mention this before but the US seems quite set on a genocide of everyone not a Trump voter
do you realize the plans for "greater Israel" were in development longer than biden or trump were president?
Right her campaign promise was quite literally that she wouldnt do anything different except be toughter on "crime" and "immigration" her campaign promises were only for the Republicans she was stupid enough to try to poach.
If she was really going to do that, why didn't she make that her campaign promise?
that is not policy. that is rhetoric and it was too little too late.
he did the same thing biden was doing.
again, why was it reasonable for biden and Harris to keep murdering kids instead of appealing to their base?
first of all, you can't make it worse than genocide.
second, you didn't answer the question. why didn't kamala and biden agree to stop bombing children? why was it unreasonable to ask them to stop and why isn't it their fault they didn't.
Its always been the Department of War, Morgan. The American Empire has never not been at war. And the Democratic Party has always been fine with that. What we are telling you is that we're tired of "the lesser evil" of whichever empty suit the DP chooses
you can not blame leftists and anti-genocide protesters for kamala's loss without first explaining why asking them to stop arming and protecting a genocide was not a reasonable request.
You were ok with people being gruesomely slaughtered in Palestine with your dollars as long as you felt you would be fine, & you thought their being slaughtered was a price you could pay to keep what you believed was a democracy, which was not a democracy when only slaughter was on the table.

Help your friend understand that it’s very rare for actresses to not live under the oppressive misogyny of US culture that they are revolting for a variety of ever-evolving reasons

"CHILDREN" is the heading for this part of the book, which I found extremely validating.

czarofdating 4h If you're a man who tends to attract women who are NOT on birth control, that means you have masculine Alpha traits. Women on birth control TEND to go for the beta, feminine, and softer man more attractive than the masculine Alpha. It has been proven scientifically to alter a woman's attractiveness she has for a man.

Abstract Several studies have reported that heterosexual women's preferences for male faces vary with hormonal fluctuations over the menstrual cycle and that women tend to prefer more masculine faces during ovulation or when not using hormonal contraceptives. While this has been tested using observational data, we provide the first double- blind randomized controlled study testing if oral contraceptives reduce preferences for facial masculinity and symmetry. Three hundred and forty women were randomized to either oral contraceptives or placebo and their facial preferences were measured at baseline and after 3 months. All analyses follow a pre-registered pre- analysis plan. No statistically significant effect of oral contraceptives on preferences for facial masculinity or facial symmetry was found. In pre- registered exploratory analyses, we further find no statistically significant associations between menstrual cycle phase or hormone levels and facial preferences. These results prov
He would never cite the studies because the gold standard double blind study that shows the exact opposite of what he is touting about birth control and women's attraction. You know then he can't sell testosterone and hate.
If he’s referring to household bills, odds are he left out a lot. Eg the credit card he maxed out on his stuff (but expects 50/50). Or it’s her house, that she pays for, & she won’t pay for his shaving supplies & gas. Etc
