I am surprised YouTube hasn't taken that down for hurting someone's feelings or something...

Leave it up == transphobic

Take it down == racist

I am confused about this bill.  Was there something prohibiting citizens from other states from moving to CA or something?  Cause I really doubt it.

A few years ago I would have laughed this off as fake but nowadays I don't know anymore.

Okay, if she thinks she is a dog, should we refer to her by the name breeders use for their female dogs?  >:D

The way they're going with the gender neutral bathroom free for all there, that's not even BB satire. I wouldn't be surprised if many new "all gender" bathrooms there are already being built sans urinals.

Just saw a question, what if Corn Pop was actually the good guy of the story, protecting the kids at the pool from the creepy lifeguard?  =D
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

A really good example of how this child gender bending is nothing more than peer pressure. A mother takes smart and decisive action and her daughter no longer wants her breasts cut off, because the mom kept her away from social media peer pressure:

Finally, some genuinely gender-affirming care.

I would have guessed a mix of BenGay, Preparation H, Aqua Velva, soiled diapers, and mothballs.
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Babylonbee is late - this was seriously proposed by a leftist politician in Sweden about a decade ago. (It doesn't appear to be an April 1 story.)

I think this word could be useful here: "defenistroika." Apparently the creation of one Ed Morrissey.

Not a joke or satire:



I would put the toilet seat down, then pee standing up and make sure that I was less than accurate. Or if I was feeling nice, I would just use the *expletive deleted*ing urinal.

I would still use the urinals. Don't care if they did something like disconnect the plumbing or not.
