I do think it's amusing that JD 'Pope Killer' Vance expected to be the main public face of American Catholicism and is now so spectacularly overshadowed.

cis people will say “I found out I’m having a baby girl at my anatomy scan and I’m experiencing gender disappointment” but be mad when you say “who knows? maybe you’ll end up with a son anyway”

I get the feeling that a lot of American young people would cheer the re-arming of the IRA and the commencement of new bombing campaigns against the British.
Free Northern Ireland and all that. Finish the job!
It feels a bit like they just like the idea of violence against people they have decided are on the ‘wrong side of history’.. as long as it’s not THEM. Like they can keep themselves safe if they just wear the t-shirt and align themselves with enough violent ‘resistance’ movements. They won’t PARTICIPATE in the terrorism, but they imagine they’ll somehow be “safe” from it if they just choose the right side. As if they are not first and foremost AMERICANS to 99% of the world. It is as if they don’t understand that terrorism is bad because it is INDISCRIMINATE. A bomb is a bomb is a bomb. It’ll blow you up in your snazzy keffiyeh just as fast as it’ll blow up the ‘Zionist’ sitting next to you on the plane/train when it goes off. It’s all about killing random people, not targeting the ‘bad guys’.
“Globalizing the intifada” looks like their mom jumping out of the window of a 110 story building to escape the fire. It looks like their best friend being blown through the floor of a train. It looks like their little sister being abducted from school, held hostage and tortured. It looks like they themselves being chased down, stripped naked, tied to a tree, raped, mutilated and shot in the head at a music festival. (Say, Coachella or Glastonbury.)
I genuinely do not understand why they don’t see this.
For some reason they do not see (imagine) themselves at Le Bataclan or the Nova festival or walking around downtown Manhattan on a random Tuesday morning or using the tube in London. They don’t imagine themselves or their loved ones being the victims of the “intifada” they want so badly to “globalize”.
I think you hit it on the head tbh - they can imagine some glorious revolutionary freedom fighting and think it's exciting because it's not them and their families in the firing line. It's frighteningly easy for people to dismiss extreme violence when it's done to people who "deserve" it because they never ever think they might be put in that category themselves.

Y'know.
When you write satire, you have to make sure it is believable. Fiction is like that, but reality has no compulsion to make sense.

ranking the best things I have had heard surgeons say mid-surgery:
"Five second rule!" while scrubbed, after dropping a sterile scalpel on the floor (no they did NOT pick it up again but I swear everyone's buttholes puckered)
(spoken during the closing of a particularly long and difficult case) "Nurse - my tunes." :heavy metal starts blasting:
Gently to a fretful patient, pre-anaesthesia: "It's going to be okay. I promise, I've dealt with worse." As soon as the patient is unconscious: "This is literally the worst thing I've ever seen."
[okay this one was a med student] "Wowwww, that's so gross!!" Reg: ""[xxx], "Please remember that the patient is awake for this procedure." Student to patient: "Oh my god. I am so sorry, that was really unprofessional - " Patient, cheerfully, also engrossed with what's happening inside them on the screen: "Nah - it's, like, super gross, right?"
[another procedure where the patient couldn't be anaesthetised] Patient: *starts singing country roads midway through the procedure* Surgeon: *shrugs and joins in with surprisingly good harmony*

I'm sorry I'm going fucking insane over trans people in sports issues the anti trans crowd has lost the fucking plot and then has the audacity to act like its the trannies who are ridiculous
I used to be of the "well the sports issue isn't really important to me its w/e I just don't want it to be a gateway into other transphobia" but oh my fucking god we are so far gone. The fencing shit is sending me over the edge. What the fuck.
