If they’re charities…great! But not just because they’re “spiritual”…

So they can be charged with perjury if they are found lying.

I ask because I know that the 1960s and early 1970s were pivotal times in the USA and Europe. I will even go as far as to say that Europe is even further away with gender roles than the USA in some ways, but when did this shift happen?

Each generation is clearly more and more equal than the previous... I ask because this is a very progressive time we have lived in over the years and so much has changed; even dating is so different from how it was in our parents generation. (Now everything is more 50/50; the woman pays her half on dates or they take turns every other time paying for each other; women ask men out now, etc., etc.)

Years ago, women were not allowed to work, not allowed to date or have sex before marriage (they were expected to be virgins on their wedding night; imagine marrying someone you are not even sexually compatible with; that must have been torture and felt like a trap), not allowed to vote, not allowed to wear denim jeans, not allowed to wear sneakers, not allowed to have short hair, and not allowed to do anything without her husband's permission first. Some women were not even allowed to have friends; it was so bad! Clearly, things have changed. In many homes, the mother is the only parent raising the kids and working, or she earns more than her husband. You very rarely see a housewife. There are a few reasons for this.

* Women were very unhappy about not being able to work, earn their own money, and have the freedom to use the money they earned.
* Many women felt they missed out on life and spent their adult lives in the house, only raising kids.
* It is simply too expensive for only one spouse to work now.

Imagine how bad things used to be for women. None of that happens today.

I know that in some countries, gender roles are still not as advanced, sadly.

But when did this really start to be noticeable?

It's been know since Trump's first campaign back in 2016 that Russia has a hard-on for Trump's liking of Putin, combined with his feeble mind and easy to manipulate persona, all of which makes him the best candidate to allow for Russia's interests to be fulfilled without obstruction. Putin's Russia is making a lot of efforts to make Donald Trump appear more popular than he actually is, initially by using professionnal trolls from the Olgino-based Internet Research Agency and now, by using Chat-GPT derived bots.

Recently, such a bot has apparently been uncovered on X, just because its idiot handler failed to pay his bill 😆, revealing inert coding in which the bot is told to argue in favor of Donald Trump in English.

So, since Trump :

• Never won the popular vote
• Is Putin's lap dog (he'll let him do anything he wants)
• is, at the moment, struggling to attract large crowds at his rallies (like the recent June 22, 2024 rally in Philly)
• Is a convicted criminal who's becoming increasingly senile every day

What do you feel is the proportion of Trump fans, online, that actually are bots (russian or otherwise) made to make Donald Trump seem more popular than he is?

Donald Trump's EXACT QUOTE to a "Faith & Freedom" meeting of conservative Christians whom it was reported responded with raucous laughter at the proposal.

"I have an idea. why don’t you (Dana White owner of UFC) set up a migrant league of fighters and have your regular league fighters, and then you have the champion of your league — these are the greatest fighters in the world — fight the champion of the migrants. I think the migrant guy might win, that’s how tough they are.”

I been hearing this said quite often lately. seems to be really catching on.

Have you said it?

Chefs kiss: a movement in which you put your fingers and thumb together, kiss them, then pull your hand away from your lips as a way of showing that you think that something or someone is perfect or excellent:

She tasted the sauce and gave it a chef's kiss.

Those days when you've stayed out late but still wake up feeling fresh and full of energy are truly a chef's kiss.

I saw some stuffed animals left out in the rain and it made me feel sad and bothered. I rescued them out of the rain last night.

Also, whenever I was given a cookie that was decorated with a sweet image of a character, I didn't want to eat it. I would collect perishable gifts as a kid and store them.
