That bill is next level trolling, if republicans are so eager and willing to pass bills to control what a women can do with her body then the same should be true for controlling what men can do with theirs.  And it also got the exactly the reaction from men, the author of the bill expected.  It does have an exception for the use of a condom and in vitro fertilization.  Quite frankly dems in other red states should be introducing an identical bill.

Women in court for aggressively farting at her boyfriend’s ex

Oh it gets better

A judge has let rip at a woman who admitted to sending videos of her breaking wind to her boyfriend’s ex.

Rhiannon Evans, 25, is believed to be the first person to ever face charges for cyber-farting over Christmas.

She sent the videos to Deborah Prytherech who said the videos caused her distress and anxiety.

This whole article is a masterpiece

Police got wind of what had happened and they followed through by arresting her and hauling her before the courts in Caernarfon.

This story has totally made my day

Cross posting to the best words thread because someone clearly pulled out the thesaurus

ventosity

flatulence or its cause
pompous inflated conceit or boasting

As in

Evans’ ventosity ended up costing her nearly £300, including £100 compensation for her victim and £199 for court costs.

Also this

Evans will also have to carry out 15 rehabilitation sessions for her sphincter whistles and must abstain from alcohol for two months.

I don't think all weird things happen in Wales, has more to do with unpronounceable 24 character words

for a breif moment I thought scrappingforaihatch  was a welsh word and it made me LOL, but alas you made it up


but
Sessions for her sphincter whistles
is my new band name or could be the title of the next ep

Perfect word for describing the kind of arrogant attitudes expressed by Southern politicians. Even fits in with their propensity for using obscure multi-syllable words to appear educated.

Governor Huey Long would be rolling in his grave at this hubristic assault at his brethren's Gothic verbosity! You slander Faulkner himself!

the merger between the gov't and corporations is almost complete
what's odd is Trump is more in charge than the corps

I couldn't believe Zuke settled and gave Trump $25 million in that case, but I guess I can believe it

then read how Sinema and LaCivita are joining the board at Crypto Exchange Coinbase


what honestly scared me the most was this sentence:
 Trump learned "a lot about [crypto] from Barron" and said that he "wants to be on the forefront" of the industry in his second term."


so not actual experts, but his teenage son...yikes Idiocracy was a documentary

Now see, that is textbook fascism.

You read these stories about major German chemical and industrial companies like IG Farben and Krupps and how close they were with the Nazis…. That’s what I always think fascism is…
