That’s because most fictional cops have ethics, empathy, and a conscience.

As a guy, the same thing would be important to me. I’d want a girlfriend who valued herself enough to make that choice. Also, what if I screwed up and got her pregnant? I’d want her to get whatever care she chose, and not be treated like a breed sow.

An attorney general is “advising hospitals to ignore a court order”.

Read that sentence again.

He is supposed to be an officer of the court. It is his job to uphold the law, regardless of how he feels about it personally. The judge ruled explicitly on this particular woman’s specific situation - there is no reasonable room for interpretation here.

This man is putting his own opinion above the rule of law. He is radically unsuited for his job and deserves to be disbarred.

I like how the child in the first panel grows up to be the protester in the second panel, and the child in the second panel grows up to be the protester in the third panel.

“I was told that professor was not okay, Dr. was not okay for me because I didn’t have a Ph.D., but there are lots of people at FLVS who do use Dr., which, coincidentally, is also in violation of the same law I got disciplined for,” Vary said. They were told the other acceptable courtesy titles were Mrs., Ms., or Miss. Using "teacher" was also out of the question.“

“We’re going to refuse every attempt at compromise, and force you to choose between abandoning your principles or your career. Why? Because we’re bastards. Fuck you.”

Serious question, though: how does one pronounce Mx.?

I was curious about this, so I went looking. It isn’t vandalism, and no, you can’t find this on the calzone page, which is what I checked first. It’s on the -ussy page, which is about LGBT slang.

For those of you who are wondering, here’s the citation: 1. Squires, Bethy (January 26, 2022). "We Asked Linguists Why People Are Adding -Ussy to Every Word". Vulture. Retrieved January 13, 2023.

Destroying evidence is a crime. Put the fucker in prison.

No. They are obligated to obey the law as written. They don’t get to create conditions.

People wouldn’t care nearly as much if he said this while standing over a pond full of fish, but since they’re cute, fuzzy lambs, it’s Crossing The Line.

…79 women’s football players who signed a letter in which they stated they would refuse to play for their country as long as Rubiales remained in his post.

How am I only learning about this now? It’s fucking awesome.

Anyway, the next step is to fire Rubiales. Will that happen?

Reality is left leaning…

It really is. So much of conservatism involves pissing into the wind, and trying to argue against objective truth.

At first, I didn’t see why this was even newsworthy. “We need to extinguish the Left” just sounds like typical right-wing motivational crap to me. Then I actually read the article:

"The only thing that's good enough is completely and totally destroying the political left in this country. Destroy it," Sabatini said.

"I'm talking about defunding government agencies, defunding bureaucrats, defunding government schools and going 100 percent private school like Florida's making gestures at right now.”

So, he’s talking about gutting the country. This isn’t just some moron shooting his mouth off at the bar, either. That’s not great.
