When a Roman emperor would conquer another city, he would ride around Rome in his chariot in a victory lap per say. A slave would always be riding on the back of his chariot whispering in his ear, “What are you going to do next?”

If you are jealous of someone else’s accomplishments, that is your problem not theirs. It means you should be trying to accomplish meaningful accomplishments in our life your self.
Everyone knows that the way to good health is proper diet, proper exercise and proper rest”. This list is incomplete. It also requires a happy and hopeful heart free of hate and fear
Animals have learned that fear is a great weapon to get what they want. A dog growling at you. A man threating to beat you up if you don’t do as he wants. The Christian Church uses the fictitious Hell to get you to do what they want. In reality, Heaven and Hell are psychological states in the here and now.

While researching the lawsuit that Harvard brought against the Trump Administration, we ran into a very impressive woman involved in it. Penny Pritzker. Age 65. She is an heir to the Hyatt Hotel fortune, on the board of Harvard Corporation, Harvard’s governing board, Commerce Secretary under the Obama administration, BA Harvard, MBA and law degree from Columbia. Net worth 3.8 Billion. She got where she is by not putting up with (white) male domination. Interesting to research.

The ONLY person you need to understand is YOU. Don’t bog you little mind down with little details of others. It might explode!
Really we” live in a house of mirrors. When you see something that you consider disagreeable in others, you are seeing things
in yourself, or things that you fear in yourself. An example could be the disdain many people see when viewing a transgender individual. Because they were taught to not do that because of male domination, the ludicrous ‘who is wea
ring the pants thing’; they may fear those qualities that while natural in them, must not be displayed in public.
Yesterday a two story house in North Austin exploded, leveling it. Surrounding houses were also severely damaged. The houses did not have underground gas resources. AFD still has not determined a cause. We sent our investigative reporter to the scene yesterday evening. She reports finding pieces of crack pipes laying around. (Not sure whose). She theorizes that ‘that must have been some really mind blowing stuff’.

This is getting totally ridiculous. The White House (well named now), is not allowing the Associated Press (AP) access to certain press events because it continues to call the “Gulf of America” the “Gulf of Mexico”, which it has been since God was a little girl. AP sued in DC and a federal judge had to step in and judge it a violation of First Amendment Rights.

How to die on camera. Quite entertaining.
How well do you know your pet? are they left pawed, right pawed, or ambidextrous? Most dogs have some kind of fang disease by age 3. What is the most common? Can you recognize the early signs of Kennel cough and parvovirus? Why do they sniff your ear?
Like all media outlets we subscribe to many other outlets. For example we subscribe to the Austin American Statesman and KXAN reporting et al., as well as The New York Times, The Washington Post. It is a duh thing for us. We focus on local news, but when it affects media we are involved. Trump has paused all media subscriptions at all national government agencies except Fox, which is apparently now the chosen one and only official State News outlet. This is what China and Russia would be expected to do. But America?
Trump and DOGE, or DOG for short, has ended DEI at all agencies. The best spies are found in those groups as they are least expected. So .. they have to hire political ‘friends’, being White males. A Fox talk show host with no military or government training is now running the military. I hope we have time to do a blog post on ‘Signal Gate’. When the best journalists in America weigh in on something like this it is amazing in several ways.
Trump has not only pardoned the Jan 6 insurrectionists 150 of which were in prison, some with over 12 year terms, and got out of prison, they are now considering a compensation fund for them. The USA paying restitution for what is obviously domestic terrorism. REALLY? What are law enforcement personel thinking that spent so much time and effort in this? Is there a fund for officers wounded in the insurrection? Source: The New York Times,

Weight loss idea. Rather than having your stomach clamped or other means, wear a small back brace under your clothing which will keep your stomach from expanding and you will eat a lot less and still be full. More sex is an idea, just not sure if it is the best idea <*^*>
To be considered “middle class” in Austin, you need to earn $60,000 to $160,000 a year. Median income – 91,000. High School Graduate – 91%. Bachelors or above 58%. Austin is a tech heavy city. Poverty level 12% earning less than $16,000 per year. White 48% LatinX 33% Black 7% (really), Asian 8%. Source: Fox 7 News, data.austintexas.gov, US Census Bureau.

ROYALTIES EXPLAINED: When you broadcast copyrighted material or tracks. You have to pay royalties to the artist. They are cleaning up, but cant do it without them. It is based on Total Listening Hours (TLH), which is the total number of listeners times the time they listened. It goes in one huge pot and the Music Guild figures out who gets what thank goodness. We currently pay about 80 dollars a month. Big radio stations pay in the tens of thousands, or the FCC will cut your cord.

A local public health provider is helping homeless people staqny out of the emergdency room by connecting them to long-term health care. Central Health, Travis County’s public hospital district, runs its new bridge program out of the organization’s Capital Plaza clinic, located off I-35 near Windsor Park. There, unhoused people can get care for acute issues like wounds, allergies or illness, or be seen for chronic concerns, like breathing issues or mental illnesses. Source: KUT 90.5

SNL was beyond hysterical last night. Trump introduces himself as “President and CEO of the Gaza Strip Casino and Resort”. He says that Zelensky is dressed like a Starfleet person. If you didn’t see it get the NBC app and navigate to SNL 50
The splintering of minds and media.
Under the three network solution (ABC CBS NBC), there was an incentive to broadcast centrist media because it brought the widest audience. In 1987 the FCC under President Ronald Reagan, repealed the “Fairness Doctrine” which allowed FCC licensed broadcasters to broadcast partisan media. This produced the likes of Rush Limbaugh in 1988 and Fox News in 1990. Now we have extreme tribalism where the other side is demonized and thus the splintering of the American minds at the expense of the common good. Which is getting worse.
WHITE Americans, still mad as hell about a BLACK president and gay marriages. A black and woman president, oh hell no. In politics it is an amazing phenomena that none of the candidates are a good choice.
Trump is pausing all media subscriptions for all government agencies, due to government
wide efforts by the Trump administration to “cut spending it deems unnecessary”. So now, media is State owned? Source: AAS

Slave issue. It’s about money, not the color of skin. All races have been slaves at some point in history. In the bible it was the Jews. Whites hated black an wanted to make them slaves. OH REALLY? Whoever was easiest. SO the fat American slave traders went running through the jungles of Africa, which they new nothing about chancing someone who ran three times faster than them? REALLY? No. African tribes captured other tribes , and sold them into slavery. So, who made you slaves? Money. Turning this into a blog post. The facts have been turned into a huge bullshit social issue.

As author of two books on civil rights, civil disobedience is not the answer, it is getting out to vote.
As pointed out byJust KXAN Austin, none of the four previous Presidents in attendance, including Republican George Bush stood up and applauded at any point in Trumps inaugural address.
Thanks to listener feedback this could have been out of dignity and not a sign of disapproval, to be as fair as possible.

Will Smith grew up in a poor family. His father owned a grocery store. The brick wall in front of the grocery store was falling down. He told Will and his brother to fix it. Without knowing anything about masonry or brick walls they rebuilt the walls.
His father told Will and his brother, “I want you to never forget this. You don’t have to know how to do something to do it.” Look where that advice took Will Smith

We had a person apply for the position of Receptionist at our station.

Well .. That .. is .. definitely ..a .. disability alright.
How much shorter a homeless persons life in Austin / Travis County is comparted to the national average is now clearer. A detailed, first-of-its-kind report by the Ending Community Homelessness Coalition, better known as ECHO, tallied 1,010 deaths of unhoused people in Austin and Travis County between 2018 and 2023 (even that is probably an undercount with this difficult- to-track population). The average age of death was 50 – a full 20 years younger than the typical lifespan of a person in housing.
It doesn’t have to be that way. Formerly homeless people who had housing at the time of their death lived nearly a decade longer than those who died on the streets, the ECHO study found.
“This underscores what we already know: Supportive housing is the cure,” said Danica Fraher, ECHO’s health care systems manager and lead author of the report. “Saving lives requires urgent, coordinated action across systems.”
,Drug overdoses were the largest cause of death among those who were homeless. Those deaths surged from 21 in 2018 to 91 in 2023. Nearly threequarters of the drug-related deaths involved methamphetamine. Half the time, the methamphetamine contained fentanyl.- Source AAS -1/12/2025 P B1

Check this out. Some women like rugged and forbidden fruit types, especially if they excel in bed, and are involve in forbidden fruit things like crimes. “I wanna be Bonnie”. They mostly robbed small stores for 5 or ten bucks, but also robbed a few banks and killed a cop trying to arrest them.” Bonnie and Clyde, they lived a life together and finally together they died.
See THE RAT BLOG for our post “Why are we different”.
Happy new years and all that stuff. Radio Austin is so looking forward to a couple of great opportunities for us. One of them Social and the other one very interesting and revealing.

Interesting topic someone here came across for several reasons. First we used Google’s Gemini AI to research “How Wyondotte County handler homelessness” a county in Kansas City Kansas. AI is a TRIP. Great to do research on. Of note how non profits handle the subject. Next, shelters are open when the temperatures are 25 and below. Travis County is about 35.Finally Wyondotte County had about 125 people experiencing homelessness in 2023. Travis estimates are 6,358. Yes, you read right.
The “Going through a Door” psychological concept came up. Best said in a succinct phrase, “I can remember every word to a 60’s song, but I cant remember why I just walked into the kitchen”. For some reason, still unknown to psychologists or scientists, when you go through a doorway your most recent short term memory disappears. Sounds totally crazy but happens to everybody. This writers guess is that somewhere down the line in our evolution this was deemed good so that you can be totally focused on what you find when you go through that doorway.
It could be a war-way.

In a post today in USA today, Anderson and Meyer. They were talking about Musk’s flexing his empirical muscles to reshape government. Brought in Trump as VP Trump. Also in the USA Today, R Ruiz. The government is selling off unused border materials, whose construction was ended by Biden shortly after he took the reins. Trump reportedly told Biden, “Please (first time I have heard him use that word), the materials are six times the price they were then. To me, that will is all about prejudices. So .. who is going to pick our fruit, build our roads and bridges and work fast food that whites and blacks are too lazy to do?

Deep fakes are really in the news. There is no telling where this AI technology is going to go. We even have an employee that had deep fakes circulated showing her engaged in sexual and illegal activities. Shame on you.
Apparently running SpaceX, Neurolink, The Boring Company (I wonder if it really is?), Twitter (X), Tesla, Solar City, Open AI, Zip2 is not enough for Ellon Musk. He is now being billed as the US co-president.
So, one of our DJs, trying to rake in some advertising money for our parent company which feeds us and other companies, does a deep fake of her and Ellon highs school age, together in a compromising position , him older and her underage sends it to Elon to remind him of that time. Hush Money time Elon. Break me off some of that 200 Billion. Can you imagine? 200 billion is two hundred thousand 200.000 million. 200,000,000,000. That’s what I call zeroing in.

Do you think that someone born in the United States, regardless of the citizenship of their parents should automatically be a US citizen? The 14th. Amendment says yes. Trump says no.

This from Lisa, our station lead. How to publish a book, with five books in print IF INTERESTED IN WRITING.
This formula first devised by Steven King, and all successful authors use, because it works.
1) three hours a day. Reason: that is all the creativity you have. 2)Put black on white. You have to write, in a near finished form 3,000 words a day. 3) Has to be handwritten first. Reason: You cant think about content clearly while remembering how to type causes problems. Then type it and it gets it’s first revision. Follow this plan and you will have a book, and 55,000 words is required for most to consider it a book. Do this and you will have a finished book in three months. four months if you have to do extensive research, which was required in my book, “The White Male Master Problem”. Type like a bat out of hell. I didn’t know that bats could type. did you? RATS definitely can.

What is the difference in a smart blonde and Bigfoot? Bigfoot has been sighted.
Why did the blonde stare at the shampoo bottle for three hours? It said CONCENTRATE.
A drop dead gorgeous blonde (aren’t we all), was speeding down South Congress Ave, late for work at Starbucks. A blonde cop pulled her over. “May I see your license ma’am?”. After digging in her purse for a couple of minutes, the blonde asked the blonde cop, “Well, what does it look like?” Irritated, the cop said, “It has you’re picture on it dummy.” She dug throuh her purse for another minute. Took out her makeup compact and looked into the mirror. She then handed the compact to the cop.

Don’t hire for job skills, hire for attitude. Job skills can be taught, attitude can’t. Don’t hold grudges, no hate, anger or prejudices is a good attitude to have.

Fort Knoxchain… Donald Trump wants the US to HODL bitcoin. The former prez made his pitch Saturday at Bitcoin 2024, a crypto conference in Nashville, Tennessee. Trump said that if elected to a second term, he’d create a “strategic national bitcoin stockpile” starting with the crypto that Uncle Sam already holds: the gov’t has 164K BTC worth $8.8B (seized by law enforcement). The announcement was part of Trump’s effort to rally the crypto constituency:

Don’t like cops? FINE. When someone shoots one of your kids, call your dope dealer or go get shot at yourself.
1. Don’t tell ANYONE, especially who you are sleeping with, a favorite CIA technique. Especially when you are committing felonies, and want to make it a social event. (Hello?) Cops cannot even get a search warrant for a bed room or bathroom. Sure they do it if life is at stakes, but for others, second degree felony if caught with that app on your phone. “Your Honor, the State has 25 witnesses to call.”
2. Crimes need to be well planned, not committed in a fit of passion or stupidity.
3. Leave no evidence, and don’t go around bragging about it.
4. When playing this game and going around acting stupid, sooner or later you are going to run into the wrong person, then there will be three here this month. That is where this shit gets you.

The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles has begun its governor-directed review into whether it will recommend clemency for Daniel Perry for killing a Black Lives Matter protester in a case that sparked advocacy for Perry from ultra-conservatives (whiteys. Native Americans Pale Face Problem.)
.
Army Sgt. Daniel Perry was found guilty of murder for shooting and killing Austin protester Garrett Foster during a July 2020 protest in downtown Austin, in front of APD headquarters. Perry was also indicted for aggravated assault and deadly conduct charges. The jury found Perry had not acted in self-defense when he drove into a crowd of people and fatally shot Foster from the driver’s side window of his car.
This white only country attitude, mainly political conservatives and evangelical Christians. If Christ was white he would be the first person from that part of the world who was white.

The future is now crystal clear and in sight, as long as you have a powerful telescope.
Mardi Gras, or Fat Tuesday is Feb. 13 this year. It is based on a lunar calendar, and is the last day with permission to go wild, before Catholic’s Lent on Wednesday (Ash Wednesday), when you have to start behaving again (Ya right…).
Mardi Gras is determined by the date of Easter, which falls on the first Sunday after the full moon following the Spring Equinox. Mardi Gras falls 47 days before Easter. The day before Ash Wednesday, which marked the beginning of Lent, was a day of feasting, and it came to be known as Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras. Because Ash Wednesday is dependent on the date of Easter, and Easter is a moveable feast (did GOD sign off on this? How can the day Christ rose from the grave change every year?), the date of Mardi Gras changes every year.
Celebrations are held world wide from Feb 9 to Feb 13. In Austin the main activities are on E. 6th St, SOCO area on S Congress, with dribbles on E 5th and E 7th and Rainy Street areas.

Every one knows the story of “Little Red Riding Hood”. But do you know what the author was talking about?

Writers write to each other, like all professional disciplines. Hopefully we make money for the entertainment.

Brain software update… Elon Musk’s controversial Neuralink has been seeking a person with quadriplegia to be its first human volunteer to receive a brain implant. The goal: allow people with paralysis to communicate by using a cursor or keyboard with their mind. Rival Synchron has implanted chips into 10 patients, and startups including Precision Neuroscience and Motif Neurotech have tested less-invasive alts. See our “RAT MONEY” page for more details.

Rideshare driver’s are on a nation wide strike, mainly Lyft and Uber because their companies want more money. On long rides they get 43%, and after gas, that 20 Dollar ride they get about 4 dollars after gas. There were usually 800 to 900 lyft drivers in Austin. Yesterday 20. They did put the regular taxi’s out of business. Before about 6000, now down to the hundreds, and then to the airport. Build a better mouse trap. Of interest. The owner of Austin Yellow Cab was a founder of Lyft.

After the Salvation Army announced earlier this year it was closing its downtown facility, the city of Austin moved to lease the space and later purchased it to continue shelter operations there. They purchased the entire city block, including the businesses on Red River for 5.2 Mil.
The facility, located next to the city-owned men’s ARCH shelter, will be operated by the nonprofit Urban Alchemy and will serve women and transgender people experiencing homelessness. Urban Alchemy has operated the ARCH facility since the city abruptly ended its contracts with Front Steps in 2022.
As it reopens in December, the shelter will be able to serve at least 65 people, according to the city’s Homeless Strategy Office. By March, it will be able to accommodate 150 people.

The City of Austin is creating a Homeless Strategy Office (HSO), a standalone division of Austin Public Health. It should be active Dec. 15. Also, The City will probably buy the Salvation Army city block downtown, from the Salvation Army, including the parking lot and businesses on it on Red River. The structure will be renovated, and the Salvation Army will be contracted to manage it (From what I have learned [AG], the only way they would do it.). It will be used to house homeless women and TRANSGENDER WOMEN.

This IS the most amazing space stunt I have ever seen. In 2016 NASA launched a space thing a ma do to an asteroid. It orbited the asteroid two years mapping the surface then landed on it, scooped up some samples, then came back to earth. It is to deploy the samples to Earth in a couple of days then turn around and head to another asteroid to do the same thing.
NASA Asteroid Explorer
DUGWAY PROVING GROUND, Utah — NASA’s first-ever samples of an asteroid in deep space have landed safely on Earth in a historic first for the United States.
In a mid-morning operation at the U.S. Army’s Dugway Proving Ground in the arid Utah desert, teams with NASA and the U.S. Air Force successfully recovered a space capsule with samples of asteroid Bennu taken by the agency’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft in 2020. The mission marks the first time that NASA has taken a sample of an asteroid, not to mention successfully recovering it.
 to reach Bennu and then make the journey home, the OSIRIS-REx probe released its sample return capsule this morning while it was about 63,000 miles (101,000 km) above Earth. The capsule contains some 250 grams (8.8 ounces) of rocks and other material from Bennu, material that could help answer some of scientists’ most burning questions about the origins of life on Earth and the early days of our solar system.</p>

Wrong. “The West’s expansion”, is real. There are others and they have their sovereign rights. Think disasters in Iraq, Afghanistan and Vietnam.

Walmart says shoplifting could lead to higher prices and closures as losses from organized retail theft mount
Calling a call girl, eh I mean store associate…
to unlock the fancy razors in the glass case. Yesterday, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said rising theft could lead to price hikes and store closures. America’s largest retailer is dealing with a surge in shoplifting that’s “higher than what it has historically been,” McMillon added. He said a lax approach from local prosecutors could lead to closures and higher prices if the problem persists.
Walmart isn’t the only one… Organized retail theft (think: criminal rings who steal large volumes of products only to resell them) is on the rise. Last year nearly 70% of retailers reported a spike, which contributed to losses of up to $69B. It can be hard to imagine that shoplifting could significantly affect multibillion-dollar corporate giants, but the scale has become so great it’s hitting their bottom line — and losing them hundreds of millions.
Target is also dealing with an increase in stealing, which it says is mostly organized retail theft. Recently, Target’s CFO said shoplifting at its stores has jumped 50% from last year. So far this year, losses from theft have dealt a $400M blow to its profit margins.
Rite Aid said it lost $5M last quarter from theft at its NYC locations, and last year Best Buy’s CEO said that rising theft had been “traumatizing” for workers.
T told you the girl would be cheaper, believe it or ont
Party in the panty pantry… Despite inflated prices, Americans have continued splurging on brand-name groceries from companies like Pepsi, Kraft, and Kellogg. Pepsi’s offset higher costs by hiking prices or shrinking product sizes (cough, shrinkflation). Last quarter Pepsi doubled its annual sales forecast as snacking demand stayed strong. But recession fears are sparking concerns that consumers’ label loyalty could be tested:
In October, Pepsi’s popular Frito-Lay brand saw sales volumes dip. Meanwhile, consumers across income levels are starting to trade down to cheaper private labels.
Now, Pepsi execs said they want to offset pressure on margins by preparing for “worsening macroeconomic conditions.”
Well inflation is deflating my stomach, but it need is anyway.

Quotes by Ayn Rand, author of “Atlas Shrugget”, one of the most definitive classics.
“Who is Charles Goth”
“I swear by the life of me I will never live for the sake of another person, not allow another person to live for me.”
Ayn Rand who shot to fame with her two best-selling novels The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged was born on February 2, 1905. Rand advocated reason as the only means of acquiring knowledge and rejected faith and religion. She supported rational and ethical egoism, and rejected altruism. Her movement was called Objectivism and she went on to publish magazine and essay collections on the same. Her works are still popular and relevant. Here’re 16 of her best quotes:
“I could die for you. But I couldn’t, and wouldn’t, live for you.”
-Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead
“Freedom (n.): To ask nothing. To expect nothing. To depend on nothing.”
-Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead
“A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.”
-Ayn Rand
“The man who does not value himself, cannot value anything or anyone.”
-Ayn Rand, The Virtue of Selfishness: A New Concept of Egoism
“You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.”
-Ayn Rand
“Learn to value yourself, which means: fight for your happiness.”
-Ayn Rand
“The truth is not for all men but only for those who seek it.”
-Ayn Rand
“Never think of pain or danger or enemies a moment longer than is necessary to fight them.”
-Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
To say ‘I love you’ one must first be able to say the ‘I.’

For those of my generation who do not, and cannot, comprehend why facebook is this; I am trying to make friends outside of facebook while applying the same principles.
–
Therefore, everyday I walk down the street and tell passersby what I have eaten, how I feel at the moment, what I have done the night before, what I will do later and with whom.
–
I give them pictures of my family, my dog and new gardening, taking things apart in the garage, watering the lawn, standing in front of landmarks, driving around town, having lunch, and doing what anybody and everybody does every day.
–
I also listen to their conversations, give them ‘THUMBS UP’.
–
And ‘LIKE THEM’.

And it works just like facebook.
I already have four people following me: two police officers, a private investigator, and a psychiatrist.

More on how this shit works.
All animals and plants contain the story of their past in their biology.
At the center of the human brain is an exact replica of a lizard brain. The human brain grew and evolved around that start.
Human embryos at an early stage have a tail. Yes, a tail, the story of our past, which develops into the throt. Some people have black spots on the end of the curvatue of their spine where a tail once was.
Human spines are identical to a lot of animals with tails.
Birds. Notice the scales on their legs? Think dinasours.

THE STORY OF EARTH.
A few billion of years ago, when the Earth was a baby, there was amonia, carbon dioxided in the atmosphere and lightning. It has been proven that these conditions created the first piece of RNA. A few million years later, RNA learned to enclose itself. This led to the first single cell plants – algea. Eventually these one cell plants lead to huge forests thorugh evolutions.
Plants used carbon dioxide to create oxygen through photosthis, their way of doing things. Then there was an abundanced of oxygen on earth, a very caustic substance. Plants and animals have a protein on their skin to withstand the oxygen or they would vaporize.
Then there was the problem of what to do with all this oxygen.
Then the second major mistake of the planet happened. Create animals to get rid of the oxygen.
Believe biology, not bullshit. Humans evolved froM lizards, and birds evolved from dianasours. Lisa will attempt to prove this tomorrow.

Scanning a bean can… This barcode has a bigger price tag: on Friday, Kroger said it was buying smaller rival grocer Albertsons for $24.6B. The super-merger is one of the largest in America’s grocery history. Combined, Ralphs owner Kroger and Safeway parent Albertsons would have 7K+ workers in 5K stores, gaining (super) market share:
The top dog is Walmart, which controls a fifth of the US grocery market. Kroger’s #2 with 10% of total dollars spent, followed by Costco.

A Michigan bill seeks to brand gender-affirming parents and doctors as child abusers and even proposes life in prison as a possible consequence for facilitating gender-affirming care.
H.B. 6454 would amend the penal code to state that child abuse includes when someone “knowingly or intentionally consents to, obtains, or assists with a gender transition procedure for a child.”
The bill includes any hormones or puberty blockers in its definition of “gender-transition procedure.” Puberty blockers are reversible medications that delay the onset of puberty so that trans youth can have more time to explore their gender identities before the permanent effects of puberty occur and they have been shown to decrease lifelong suicide risk for trans people who want them.
State Rep. Beau LaFave (R), one of the lawmakers who introduced the bill, told The Hill that kids shouldn’t transition until they are old enough to have sex.
“People are abusing these children. The idea that we would be making potentially life-altering changes to 11-, 12-, 13-, 14-, 15-year-old kids when it is illegal for them to have sex is insane. I mean, they’re not responsible enough to smoke a cigarette until they’re 21.”
“Gender affirming care is medically necessary and life-saving care for transgender youth,” Equality Michigan executive director Erin Knott said in a statement. “Medical decisions belong to trans youth, their parents, and their doctors.”
Should the bill pass, Michigan would become the second state to make gender-affirming care a felony, after Alabama – though a judge has blocked part of Alabama’s law from taking effect.
Republicans across the country continue to advocate for laws banning youth from receiving gender-affirming care, even though multiple studies show that transgender youth experience high rates of suicidality, and that access to affirming healthcare often leads to significant improvements in their mental health and quality of life.
In August, anti-LGBTQ Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) introduced a bill at the federal level that would make providing gender affirming care for transgender minors a class C felony, ban federal funds—including Medicaid funds—from being used for gender affirming care for transgender people, ban medical schools from teaching about gender affirming care, stop health care plans under the Affordable Care Act from funding gender affirming care, and ban anyone found to have performed gender affirming care from immigrating to the U.S.

What is beyone the universe? Well, what do you think?
The above image is the best ‘our’ scientists can to to map the galaxies in the universe.
Our Milky Way galaxy is just one of the billions of galaxies in the universe, which is not about 13.77 billion years old, since the ‘big bang’ (what an orgasm!!). It has been expanding since then, and creating stars, planets, black holes and all kinds of things, ALL OF WHICH are elements known to us, such as hydrogen and oxygen (Think about this as well). Within it, there are at least 100 billion stars, and on average, each star has at least one planet orbiting it. This means there are potentially thousands of planetary systems like our solar system within THIS galaxy!, and there are over 100 billion of them (Can I get a Cheech and Chong, “Wow Man”

Finally the fucking answer. We must have heard the word FUCK used on varios stages at the ACL. So it must be OK to present fucking media with the word FUCK, which has the most definations of any word ever thought of. …
1. It would have made me loose my mind – that is -if I had one.
2. My thighs stuck together for two days.
3. Security had to run off all the wathers and listeners.
And the number one answer was …..
“COME ON DOWN!!”

And now for the Fuckin answer to the question posed. ..
By scientif definition ‘our’ univers contains TIME SPACE GRAVITY which leads to distances and an illusion of reality. SO once again, what is beyong ‘our unverse’ more on this tomoerrow.
The real ‘real’ world. There is no time or space. No beginning or end. No here or there. Humans are living in a dream. Looking for ‘life’ meaning ‘life like us’, they ar missing it all.

In the Midevil castle days of the 1500’s there was a person who would follow the king around with the Royal Toilet. When the king needed to do that, the person would set it up then wipe his royal ars. To our modern thinking, this sounds like the worst job possible and so disrespectful, however he was one of the most looked up to, and the kings closest associate in all matters.
