Personally I see it as yet another sign the days of legalized, institutionalized sexism are behind us, which is a good thing and a long overdue course correction for the US, and indeed the West. What are your thoughts?

My girlfriend hasn’t asked about me since she’s been back from her intense film shoot trip. And she has responded to my messages but she doesn’t respond to flirty or affectionate messages although this may just be me overthinking. Then today she asked if I’m around this weekend or next week after work and asked if we could go get a tea somewhere Sunday evening after I said I’m free then. I asked her if it’s bad as she’s never asks me for a tea and then asked if everything’s ok and she said “Oh I just meant more to catch up”. Is this the end?

Picture a man and a woman. the woman is crying, the man is shouting at her. which thing do you feel worse about?

Please: only after you have voted in your poll, read the following:

Consider that we're talking about 2 people here, who are experiencing negative emotions towards each other. Anger and Sadness will be emotionally taxing for the other person to deal with. Aren't both their emotions valid? aren't both obviously having a difficult time with handling their emotions, the woman being sad and thus crying, the man being angry and thus shouting. aren't they both just in the process of working through their very difficult emotios? why is it that probably most of you will have thought the woman is the victim and the man is the violent aggressor here? isn't anger an equally valid and difficult emotion as sadness is? doesn't the man deserve the same empathy here?

The NBA is a global brand with billions of fans worldwide generating billions of dollars every year with content that receives billions of views

The franchise is expanding its global reach into over 200 countries around the world in over 50 different languages

Since ~50% of the world population is Asian, should NBA implement hiring and signing quotas that insist 50% of all NBA players?

after all, the NBA does owe a lot of its growth and success to the support from international fans and it's very important to make sure each racial demographic is represented fairly in terms of percentage of players

Hey everyone, I’ve been thinking about the different ways people see and deal with life:

The Red Pill – facing harsh truths and taking control.
The Black Pill – feeling hopeless or seeing life as unfair.
The White Pill – accepting reality but staying positive and finding meaning.
Which one do you identify with most, and why? Share your thoughts and experiences! Let’s keep it respectful and open-minded – no judgment, just self-reflection.

BREAKING: Jack Smith calls Donald Trump's bluff and urges Congress and the Justice Department to let him testify publicly "in open hearings" to set the record straight.

In a new letter sent to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Smith asked for the public hearings so that he can dispel the "many mischaracterizations" that are now swirling around his investigations into Trump's mishandling of classified records and efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Those investigations led to criminal charges but were ultimately dismissed by a Trump-appointed judge.

Smith's attorneys told the Republican committee leaders that he will need DOJ assurances that he "will not be punished" for testifying since some of the details of his investigations are technically still sealed or protected under grand jury secrecy rules.

Donald Trump and Republicans have relentlessly attacked Jack Smith, but he has steadfastly defended his investigations.
