This is hard to swallow but it's true. The most gorgeous women during the Golden Era of Hollywood were men. All of them.
Male abominations considered as beautiful women
this is how they mock God's creation.

Stop calling them "public" schools
They aren't open to the public
They aren't accountable to the public
They are run by government
They are regulated by government
They are funded by government
They are compelled by government
They are government schools.
Mental healthcare is healthcare Mr President. That's why it has no place in schools.

Here's what you ghouls don't understand.
I willl accept one 10 year old forced to give birth to her father's child every year to stop 30k+ other abortions.
Our bodies evolved eating meat and it's easier to digest. It's only the last few thousand years we started cooking our meat to preserve it and add flavor. The people that made us fear eating raw meat are the ones we now know lies all the time.
What was worth gaining, by loosing this?

Kyetra Bryant says after taking an American Airlines flight out of Charlotte, North Carolina, with her boyfriend, she soon noticed an unusual fee on her bank statement: “African American African Service Charge.”
Despite using separate debit cards to pay for their luggage fees, Bryant’s boyfriend received the same statement, she said in a social media post.
Upset and confused, Bryant said she has been trying to get an explanation, and an apology from the airline, since seeing the charges the weekend after Thanksgiving. She hasn’t had much luck.
After being passed from department to department, she said she was eventually told the incident was being investigated, but she’s never received an answer as to how it happened.
“Honestly, I didn’t expect a response but I’m not stupid and no I don’t think it was a mistake. Never flying with them again,” Bryant said.
Whatever the reason, “there’s really no justification,” she told Fox 46. “We definitely felt targeted. That’s an instance of racial bias.”
I can think of no European country that is as hostile to Britain and British interests. It even aims to annex our territory. Why do we treat Ireland as a friend?
the article is about Erin O'Tooles' comments about residential schools but was too long to submit. This came at the end.
“Most of the lefty radicals are also the dumbest people at your university,” O’Toole said at the outset of the video.
He then tells the group that he’s got a “nugget” for them that, when he says it in Parliament, “silences the Liberals like you wouldn’t believe.”
“Conservatives, when it comes to residential schools in the modern era, have a better record than the Liberals. That shocks the hell out of the woke crowd, I’ll tell you,” O’Toole said.
What's the point of having a military if we can't use it to keep peace domestically?

AITA for throwing away my gf's umbilical cord?
Throwaway because her brother knows my reddit.
Hi, my (34M) gf (21F) of two years is native American and she had this small, beaten up leather pouch. It was about the size of a golf ball, and it was beaded but there were beads missing and thread exposed and the leather was stained and greasy with something. It was supposed to look like a turtle or a lizard or something, but it was so beaten that I was hard to tell. The thing absolutely stunk. We had it in a box of keepsakes along with our photos and other things, and it made the box have a musty smell.
Imagine my horror when I asked her what the thing was, and she told me it was her umbilical cord?? It grossed me out and I thought she was joking, so I laughed. She looked upset, so I asked if she was serious. She was. I asked her why she had it, and she told me it was her people's cultural practice to stop you from searching for things or something among other things. I thought the sentiment was nice, but it stunk and was hideous.
I understand that some people keep teeth and that sort of thing, but teeth don't stink. And teeth aren't kept in a strange little pouch. The whole thing skeezed me out, so I put it back and left it alone.
But two weeks ago when she was sleeping, I was going through our things and wanted to scan an old photo. I opened our keepsake box and the wave of musty air hit me. I couldn't take it anymore, so I hid the thing in a box in the basement. We went through our photos and things together (it was a lovely night, we did it over wine) and she didn't even acknowledge that it was missing. I even asked her if she noticed anything gone from our stuff. She said she didn't, and laughed.
So yesterday, I decided to rid us of it and put it in the trash. It went, and I could breathe a sigh of relief knowing my girlfriend's actual entire mummified umbilical cord was where it should've been to begin with.
But today her mom called, and told her that she was willing to remake the pouch for her if she sent it. Oops... She proceeded to tear apart our room looking for it, sobbing hysterically and not listening to any kind of reason... I'll admit, I felt bad. Maybe I should've just left it alone, but why even keep such a thing? I came clean and told her that I threw it away because I thought she wouldn't notice.
She started screaming at me and said that it wasn't my right to throw her things away. I reminded her of when she threw my favorite shirt away just because it had a hole and a grease stain. She told me it wasn't the same thing, but isn't it? They were both items kept purely out of sentimentality. At least my shirt wasn't making our photos smell musty.
She was suddenly calm, and I thought she was willing to talk about it, but she started packing her stuff. I begged her to stay but she took her car and her stuff and left. I don't know where she went, or if she'll be back, but I'm so devastated. It was such a small and dumb thing to split us up over, but I do regret it. Am I the asshole?
ETA Stop bringing our ages into this, she was and is an adult and you have no right to judge us. Focus on what I'm talking about here and now. I didn't want to put it in a different container because at the end of the day, we still would've had a body part that should've been tossed to begin with. Just because something is cultural doesn't mean that justifies it. Would it be okay if I kept all my fecal matter in a little bag because I thought it was special? It doesn't and didn't make sense. I feel like she was overreacting and I think everyone calling me the asshole should have to smell the damn thing. Then you'd know why I tossed it.
ETA2 All these comments are making me feel like complete shit. The last time we fought, she came back after an hour. She isn't back yet, and it's starting to take a toll. She's the one that makes dinner, cleans, comforts me. She's always there for me. The notion that I might spend tonight alone is destroying me. She's always been perfect to me, and I do things like this that upset her. Maybe I AM the asshole.... I'm sorry guys. I've been calling her and calling her and she won't answer. I just want to apologize and get her back. I want her to know how much she means to me. I think I might call her mom and tell her what I did and see if she can make another one... I know it won't be the same and it won't have her umbilical cord anymore, but maybe it'll be a start?
ETA3 I couldn't get ahold of her mom, but I have been on the phone with the sanitation department for our city, and they put me on hold for 45 minutes looking through the trash from our neighborhood. I barely caught them, and it took a lot of pleading and convincing but they were kind. They managed to find the pouch, and I'll have to pay a huge recovery fee, but that's all worth it. They agreed to let me pick it up tomorrow. If I can get ahold of my gf, hopefully she'll come back to me and things can be alright. I'll never touch her stuff again if it means she'll stay with me. I'll update this when I can get ahold of her.
ETA4 This will be the last update... I'm so devastated. I got the pouch back from the sanitation center today as soon as they called me at 8am this morning. It was a little smashed up but it's ok. If our city wasn't as small as it is, I might not have been able to get it back. I paid them and left. I left a voicemail for my gf telling her I got it back, and she finally called me back. She told me she was coming back and I felt butterflies again like when I first met her. I was waiting for her to show up, and I wanted to fully check the condition of the pouch, so I opened it and discovered what was causing it to smell-there was a cigarette butt in it beside her umbilical cord that looked like it might have been wet at some point. It made the pouch smell like ash, along with the leather stinking from whatever greasy substance was on it. The pouch was okay, so I waited for my gf to come.
Well she came this evening and asked for it immediately. I asked if she wanted to have dinner with me and she said no. I was hurt, she said she was coming back? She told me no, she just wants her pouch. I didn't want to be an asshole again, so I just gave it to her. I told her I loved her and she slammed my own door in my face. I began to mourn our relationship but she came back in and grabbed me by my shirt and asked why I opened it. I told her I wanted to see if it was ok.
She said I didn't need to open it, and asked if I took the cigarette out. I told her I just touched it to look at it and she began to cry... She told me she was keeping that since her father committed suicide because it was the last thing he touched. She grabbed me again and I thought she was going to hit me, but she just went to our room presumably to see if she got all her stuff. Then she told me not to contact her again or she'd send her brothers to me.... I won't be an asshole and get the police involved, but that was definitely a threat.
I'm so heartbroken... I've lost my whole life. For two whole years, she was everything to me. I helped her get off her reservation, I paid for her GED. I did so much for her but none of it matters now. I put so much time into our relationship and into her, I was in it for the long haul. I know I messed up. I know I'm an asshole. I know I'll be alone forever. Thank you all for making me see that.
I went to our room, and she threw what looks like porcupine quills or something everywhere. She stabbed them into my side of the bed, put them in my shoes, in my dresser drawers. It seems spiteful to leave something so difficult to pick out of carpeting and bedding. They're all I have of her now though. I'm going to keep them. I hope she's better off without me. Lesson learned I guess.
Throwaway because I'm active on another subreddit.
I (26M) am dating a lovely (22F) Chinese woman (I am a white man for reference). We get along just fine and the only problem is that we disagree on her culture. Let me explain.
Now okay. I'm just not that much into Asian culture personally. I don't like it when she cooks her native food, listens to her Chinese music or speaks in Mandarin. I don't want to completely disconnect her from her roots but I just don't like Chinese culture, I'm sorry. If she wants to "be Chinese" I tell her to go to her friends house.
This has made her pretty upset with me. She accuses me of not accepting who she is culturally and that I'm trying to Americanize her. I'm not! Your culture is just not for me, I'm sorry. I have no problem with who she is but I just don't want to be a part of it. I'm American, and I want my life to be American. Not Chinese. She moved here so she should be the one adapting to me, not the other way around.
She gets so upset whenever I want to do something American. It gets so annoying sometimes when I want to go out for a burger or something traditionally American and she complains that she will have nothing to eat there (Which isn't true, she will eat some American foods, albeit shes picky). And wants to cook me something instead, her claiming that its healthier and cheaper. I don't care! I don't want you to cook for me.
Last night was when it got particularly bad. She was on a video call with her parents who do not speak English and live in China and wanted me to say hi in Mandarin so her parents would feel more...comforted by me? I'm not sure. They don't live in a rural town so I'm sure they would know "Hi" right? So I refused and simply closed the door so I didn't have to hear them talk in Mandarin. When she got off the phone she was really upset with me and has been at her friends house ever since.
So, AITA for not adapting to my girlfriends culture?
Spain’s coalition government has vowed to overturn an “authoritarian” initiative by the far-right Vox party that allows parents to stop their children attending talks, workshops or classes during school hours whose content “goes against their moral principles”.
According to Vox, the policy – referred to as the “parental pin” – is designed to protect children by requiring parental permission for exposure to content relating to “ethical or social values or civic or sexual morals”.
But critics claim it will shut down debate on gender, sexual orientation, feminism and the environment as the scheme also requires parental consent for any activity relating to “socially controversial moral questions or sexuality”.
Although the initiative featured in Vox’s manifesto for last April’s general election, and has been in effect since last September in the south-eastern region of Murcia – where Vox props up a regional government between the conservative People’s party (PP) and the centre-right Citizens party – it has only recently become a topic of fierce debate.
Last week, Vox threatened to veto the Murcia government’s annual budget unless the PP and Citizens adopted the parental pin as part of the regional education programme.
Although the pin was not signed into law, the regional budget was agreed after a deal was reached to allow “families to educate their children freely, without any kind of impositions, through the express permission of families when it comes to their children’s participation” in extracurricular classes and activities.
The debate could have more national consequences as Vox has also played kingmaker to PP-Citizens coalition regional governments in Madrid and Andalucía.
The new central government of the Spanish Socialist Workers’ party (PSOE) and the far-left, anti-austerity Unidas Podemos alliance, said last week that it would work to have the scheme overturned – by legal means if necessary – as it “goes against constitutional values”.
Spain’s new equalities minister, Irene Montero, described the measure as an attempt at educational censorship.
“The sons and daughters of homophobic parents have the same right as everyone else to be educated about respect, the promotion of human rights and being able to love whoever they want,” she said last week.
“The sons and daughters of sexist parents also have the same right to be educated about equality and feminism.”
On Monday, eight regional education ministers from the PSOE published an open letter decrying the parental pin as a measure that would “rupture school harmony and the culture of dialogue and reflection and impose a blind and uncritical authoritarianism”.
Pablo Casado, leader of the PP, said a balance needed to be found between freedom of choice and information for parents, adding that he thought most “sensible” Spaniards wanted to decide what kind of education their children receive.
“I don’t believe in a country where parents have to be subject to the whims of what a politician or bureaucrat says,” Casado said on Monday.
He also renewed his attack on the new government’s decision to appoint a former justice minister, Dolores Delgado, as the new attorney general, saying the outrage over the parental pin was a “smokescreen” to distract from criticisms of the move.
Critics argue that Delgado’s appointment blurs the separation of powers, with some members of the General Council of the Judiciary suggesting it could serve to “create the appearance of a link with the executive branch that does not contribute to the perception of the judiciary’s independence”.
It was not a civil war, America. It was a COUP DE TAT!!! The war was two, organized government's waging war against each other. That is a COUP DE TAT, not a war! Victors always get to REWRITE HISTORY. It's called PROPAGANDA.
Many Americans know very well....NElTHER SIDE entered the war over slavery. Lincoln and his radicalized revolutionaries had already monopolized and controlled the North's economy They wanted to bring the ENTIRE COUNTRY under their economic / political "American System", ie: the govt "managed economy"
The South resisted....they had had enough of the North's economic exploitation. By, 1860.....75% of revenue sucked away from the South....was used to SUBSIDIZE the Northern economy....business, roads, canals, public works, railroads, etc,
This is what the War of Northern Aggression was REALLY about...... to destroy the original republic and bring the ENTIRE national economy and political system under centralized control.
And, this was the seed that was sowed in 1865....that has now produced the despotic and aggressive Welfare / Warfare state we live under today. Close and honest analysis of this period leaves no confusion. Remember.....maggot Karl Marx released the Communist Manifesto in 1848....and also attempted several revolutions in Europe, which were crushed. MANY of these veterans CAME TO AMERICA and joined the U.S. Army 25% of the U.S. Army in 1860.....were veteran's of these communist revolutions. The mid 19th was the rise of communism and statism. AMERICA WAS INFECTED WITH THIS VERMIN.
