  • Comedy isn't magically ineffective at spreading ideology when all other forms of media are.

    It's often more effective because it feeds off of and into current societal feelings. It can shield itself behind being "just a joke" and can still be actively harmful to the minorities they target.

  • The Ohio General Assembly, which is controlled by a Republican supermajority, can override the governor’s veto with a three-fifths majority vote.

    So, while the vetos are great news, folks in Ohio should contact their reps to let them know to let the vetos stand.

  • Your comment and several others you've made throughout this thread paint children as fickle, compare medical care to tattoos, and completely ignore that to even get treatments like blockers and cross-sex hormones is a multi-year process with a team of physicians, endocrinologists and therapists.

    Hell, if you want to talk about surgery alone, the adult requirements are documentation from two therapists that you have persistent dysphoria, along with your primary physician before a surgeon will even schedule for a consult, from there, you go on a wait list that can span multiple years. For under 18s, the process is even more rigorous, requiring longer documentation, and wait lists often push back care past 18.

    Put simply, I don't believe you.

  • That episode always kinda bothered me, because the universal translator was able to make English phrases out of it, which suggests a base language that would have to exist for the Tamarians themselves to understand their language. Surely, they could have shared some set of learning matirials that they would use to educate their young?
