The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans

U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then t

This is possibly the most insane national security story in the last 50 years. Includes a massive text chain between senior members of the Trump admin gaming out foreign policy and war plans on Signal, and they accidentally added a reporter to the group chat.

i’m determined to keep my heart soft. to not let bitterness take root within me.

I have really deep thoughts on this but I just got dropped off at home by my boyfriend after a trip to the ER and I'm on enough muscle relaxants and pain meds to knock out a horse but like... I've been saying since the Supreme Court case that decided corporations are people (Citizens United (?)) That we were headed out of the realm of capitalism as we knew it, and certainly out of the prime capitalism that was Fordism (standardized low cost goods and decent enough wages for workers that allowed them to purchase those goods) and into an era of some form of nuveao (neuveau? That same fucker that that shit art movement was art neuveau) feaudalism, monopoly, oligarchy, and hegemony. I think those are the right words. Someone... like this so I can revise while not out of it.

How do they keep making later and later stages of late-capitalism

This is a huge win in the fight against marital rape.

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has just made a major ruling in favor of a French woman who was blamed for her divorce because she refused to have sex with her husband.

The woman, whose identity is kept private, had been married since 1984, but her relationship took a dark turn when her husband started abusing her in 2002. Then, she stopped having sex with him.

By 2012, she wanted a divorce, but her husband argued that she was the one at fault for not having sex.

The French courts initially sided with him, but the ECHR finally stepped in, ruling that this was a violation of her rights. The court made it clear that women cannot be treated as "faulty" for choosing not to have sex in a marriage.

Women are not objects in relationships —they are equal partners with the right to consent or refuse. This ruling challenges the harmful belief that marriage comes with a sexual "obligation" and affirms that everyone deserves respect, freedom, and the right to live free from sexual pressure or violence.

Additional Notes on this: I carry 2 sidearms, a primary and a secondary, as well as additional magazines for a total of about 32 rounds on my person at any given time. I aim to have a minimum of about 19 rounds (2 6 round spare mags + a 6 round magazine in my primary, and 1 round chambered), particularly if I am only able to carry my primary side arm given the outfit I'm wearing. Ensure all holsters have trigger guards idgaf what safety features your firearm has, safeties are mechanical devices capable of failure. My secondary I carry in condition 3, whereas my primary is carried in condition 0. I will also post photos later and reviews on both of my sidearms and why they are what they are.

I'm seeing a ton of Feminists urging eachother to get a gun due to the election results, which is fantastic news imo American women please please please assert your 2nd amendment rights and get a gun if you're able to <3

You can start by looking into the gun laws in your state: https://everytownresearch.org/rankings/compare/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_laws_in_the_United_States_by_state Gun safety: https://www.agirlandagun.org/how-to-shoot/4-rules-of-gun-safety/ Youtube has thousands of gun related videos, it's a male dominated culture but there are absolutely a ton of resources for female shooters and beginners. Reddit has a handful of firearm related subs, included r/firearms(skews conservative/rightwing) and r/liberalgunowners and r/concealedcarrywomen Facebook has women's gun groups also, many of them skew conservative but can still be a valuable resource for beginners Check out your local area for self defense firearm classes, some will have classes geared specifically to women. Check out your local gun stores, or sporting goods stores, some will have a range in which you can rent a firearm before purchasing but many don't have this feature, so it's important to do product research before buying. https://www.pewpewtactical.com/best-handguns-women/ https://tombstonetactical.com/blog/best-guns-for-women (Most guns range from $400 to $700 btw) Gun store employees are overwhelmingly male (and in my experience, old) and might try to steer you towards the tiny pink pistol, or a .22, or something else equally impractical for self defense. It's important to be assertive and clear in what you're looking for!

There was a time when rough sex meant some hair pulling, mutual scratching (nails down backs or w.e.) and biting kisses, maybe a spank or two to a butt cheek and was more about the quality of the thrusts involved than it was the rest of the actions. Rough sex was desperate, hurried, rushed, and a bit animalistic, but it was more often than not a mutual level of roughness. The fact that BDSM has gone incredibly mainstream has taken what used to be, in my mind, an acceptable level of roughness to something considered "vanillas" by most people and instead introduced things that at the time I was discovering sex were considered hard core -> gore into the every day lexicon and sexual expectations of the porn addicted adult is incredibly concerning. Even those within the scene are growing increasingly alarmed at what is going on in the new scene where the "rights of passage" aren't being upheld. Where people are doing these incredibly hardcore scenes without any kind of education on the safety backups integrated into them, where they aren't checking in on their partners, where they're either unable or unwilling to read their partner's non-verbal cues. I was talking to an older professional leather butch a few months ago about this, about how there's been this shift away from safe & sane to an attitude that as long as it's consensual in the beginning it's fine for a growing number of faux-doms who got all of their education on BDSM from the kink castle's pornos and have never been a sub under someone else. These faux-doms can not manage to maintain arousal outside of a scene and that the focus has shifted from the subs' needs and desires to those of the dom/domme. Face hits were taboo, even in the scene for a long time, especially closed fist ones. Now we have doms openly bragging about punching subs in the face. BDSM has expanded so rapidly and warped so much darker than it was even 10-15 years ago in comparison to what it's become now.

whenever someone says kink is unethical they’re not talking about how you’re into feet or whatever, they’re talking about men who beat, choke, and pretend to rape their girlfriends during sex and play it off like it’s #progressive
