If a 40-year-old propositions a 13-year-old for sex, and the 13-year-old says yes, it’s still a crime because 13-year-olds are not capable of informed consent.
If a 40-year-old proposes that a 13-year-old take hormone blockers and undergo surgery to remove sex organs…

I understand the point that Cuties is supposed to be making, but there's a way to address the issue of sexualization of minors without actually SHOWING the sexualization of minors.
I made a map of every state that has passed all of the following:
- Ban on state and local lockdowns
- Ban on state and local mask mandates
- Ban on state and local vaccine mandates
- Ban on gain of function research
The left-wing meltdown about 50 (yes, 50) illegal aliens in Martha’s Vineyard shows that they never really believed any of their rhetoric about sanctuary, diversity equity, inclusion, job creation, gross domestic product, social stability, and food trucks.
So why should you?
Miami Herald headline: 901 deaths is the biggest one-day increase in pandemic history.
Miami Herald article: The 901 deaths actually took place over a period of more than four weeks.
They do this on purpose.
They took a legendary 200-year-old crystal flute out of storage so that Lizzo could play two notes on it.
The purpose is to remind you that nothing you care about has any value.

“If you ban critical race theory, you’re banning all education about slavery.”
“If you ban drag queen story hour, you’re banning Mrs. Doubtfire.”
“If you restrict abortion in any way, you’re banning women from removing miscarriages.”
They never defend the thing for what it is.
@Yelp
Clarifier for anyone who doesn't get it: "social credit" refers to the Chinese Communist Party's program for monitoring its citizens for wrongthink.
Yelp looked at this system and thought, "It's a good start."
SUPERCUT: President Trump explains why he chooses to live in Florida.
"One of the greatest governors in our country—and I know a lot of good ones, and I can tell you there are some really bad ones too—but this is a great one: Governor Ron DeSantis."
One of the students Gov. DeSantis was caught on a hot mic telling they do not have to wear a mask at his recent indoor press conference speaks out.
"It's my right to have my mask on," the student says.
@greenfield64
The decision by ABC News to run a Biden town hall directly opposite NBC's Trump town hall is indefensible.
Am I doing it right, Jeff Greenfield (D-Politico)?
Kari Lake over Karrin Robson
Doug Mastriano over Lou Barletta
Mehmet Oz over Dave McCormick

Trump’s big November 15 announcement should be an endorsement of Ron DeSantis for president in 2024.
We can do better.
Readers, especially white readers, are *not* entitled to footnotes / explanations / direct translations of non-English words that a BIPOC author chooses to use in their books with intentions of not translating.
Human beings are susceptible to the power of suggestion.
Children are especially susceptible to the power of suggestion because they necessarily exist under an asymmetric power dynamic.
Schumer: We’re going to spend $485 billion.
Manchin: That doesn’t sound like it will help the inflation situation.
Schumer: Hear me out. We’ll call it the “Inflation Reduction Act.”
Manchin: OK, you have my vote.
Trump is talking about 2024 primary poll numbers and making up nicknames for the most popular conservative elected official in America.
Anyone want to explain how this helps us win on Tuesday?
Hitler killed 11,000,000 people in the Holocaust, and total civilian deaths in World War II are 50,000,000-55,000,000.
Bin Laden killed 3,000 people on 9/11.
Capitol rioters killed 0 people on January 6, 2021.

That the sources had legal access to Trump’s taxes is not in question.
They committed a felony by providing it to people who DON’T.
A real journalist would ask questions about this instead of playing goalkeeper for Democrats.
I'm blocking all Ron DeSantis bashers. It's ridiculous. I live in Florida and he's been a miracle. I owe the man 2 entire years of freedom in my old age - while other states were locked down.
If you're trying to get Joe Biden elected and ruin my country - you're my enemy.
@jonathanalter
This reads more like an endorsement, since they couldn't get a single one of Barrett's actual LAW SCHOOL colleagues to sign on to a letter opposing her.
@AOC
A Capitol police officer risked his life to protect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
In turn, she smeared him as a possible collaborator in the Capitol riot.
Disgusting.
Vindman's latest meltdown is still less embarrassing than the time he thought that a lieutenant colonel outranks the commander-in-chief in the chain of command.
“Nobody cares about the debate. Everyone’s going to be watching the Tucker interview.”
It’s one day later.
I don’t see any influencers talking about the Tucker interview.
@ProfEmilyOster
@TheAtlantic
The people who fought to keep children out of schools past the initial panic should be banned from holding office.
In exchange, they won’t be prosecuted.
That’s an acceptable amnesty deal.
@AOC
Sandy Ocasio wasn't even in the Capitol when the riot was taking place. She was in her office, in another building.
A Capitol police officer came by anyway to make sure that she was okay.
In an Instagram livestream, she compared him to a sexual assaulter.
@KamalaHarris
@JoeBiden
Condemning “violence” is great but we know why Kamala Harris is not naming the people who are doing it.
(They’re her supporters.)
BREAKING: Alleged felon & fired geographer Rebekah Jones (I-MD, D-FL) has lost her bid to represent Florida's 1st Congressional District.
Jones' felony trial begins on January 23, 2023.
What is a woman? It’s a question that’s suddenly everywhere, and it turns out the answer is complicated. Jon breaks down the gender binary and gender spectrum in this week’s episode. Stream the free episode now on Apple TV+.
No one should be able to purchase a semi-automatic weapon, cross state lines and kill 2 people, wound another and go free. In what world is this safe ... for any of us ?
Trump endorsed Oz over McCormick.
The entire party, including Toomey, rallied around Oz despite his unpopularity and history of promoting left-wing ideas.
Oz lost to a guy who cannot complete his sentences.
We can’t keep doing this.
