I'm going to do everything I can to ensure I never see a doctor who went to Harvard Med.

2024’s got everything: Queers for Palestine, the leader of the free world pooping his pants on the White House Lawn, the CEO of a boner pill company issuing clarifications that he’s not an antisemite…

Quote
A Florida woman who made headlines for breastfeeding her husband has revealed the pair are considering having another baby so she starts lactating again.

Rachel Bailey, 31, and her spouse Alexander, 30, said they have 'grieved' their 'bonding experience' breastfeeding since her body stopped producing milk in the past year.

The couple's three children have all weaned off the milk, which meant Alexander had to as well.

Now, they are considering having a fourth child so they keep up the habit, which started in 2016 Ms Bailey forgot her breast pump on a couples cruise, leading her breasts to become painfully engorged. 

Mom of three who used to breastfeed her HUSBAND, 30, reveals she's considering having a fourth baby so they can do it again

And we continue to celebrate and encourage the mentally ill in their activities.  The West is truly sick.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Met Gala 2024 WORST-dressed stars revealed: Amelia Gray Hamlin . . . Lana Del Rey . . .  J. Harrison Ghee . . . Jessica Safferty . . . Rita Ora . . . Doja Cat . . . A-listers including Rihanna and Blake Lively are no shows . . .
OK, I've HEARD of the last two - but who the hell are the first half dozen names?

On second thought, don't bother telling me, I've no more interest in them than I do in the organ grinder's monkey.

This dress would make some sense if it was outdoors on the Texas or Louisiana Gulf Coast.  Keeps the mosquitos off (at least partially).

The shoe peeking out from under the hem of that . . . dress . . . looks like some unholy marriage of crocs and lumberjack boots.

Starting to really like JK Rowling because like Elon she speaks her mind and doesn't give a *expletive deleted*it what the woke mob thinks,

Quote
    JK Rowling is accused of cruelty as she mocks transgender football manager by comparing her to a 'straight, white, middle-aged bloke' https://t.co/1cCGfHidn4 pic.twitter.com/e2Z6k9Fuhm
    — Daily Mail Online (@MailOnline) May 11, 2024

Follow the link in the above quote if you don't know what's going on here but in short she is calling a he a he and the woke mob can't deal with it.
