how can you not believe in God when octopuses DREAM and otters have a favorite rock they carry around in a little SKIN POCKET and cows have BEST FRIENDS and bees are out there communicating the coordinates of flowers through INTERPRETIVE DANCE and they have REGIONAL DIALECTS??
cats are PURRING at frequencies associated with bone healing??? forests get absolutely incinerated and respond by growing FLOWERS??? dolphins literally invent NAMES for themselves and yell them across the ocean??? penguins are waddling around Antarctica looking for the PERFECT LITTLE ROCK to give their beloved???
CROWS REMEMBER YOUR FACE. THEY TELL OTHER CROWS ABOUT YOU. THEY TELL THEIR CHILDREN ABOUT YOU. YOU CAN HAVE GENERATIONAL BEEF WITH A BIRD.
goats have ACCENTS. rats GIGGLE when you tickle them. elephants mourn their dead. whales make SONGS and then OTHER WHALES LEARN THE SONG and suddenly everybody across the ocean is singing the new hit single.
monarch butterflies are born knowing how to fly thousands of miles to a place THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN. sea turtles hatch out of an egg, immediately sprint toward an OCEAN they have never seen, disappear into it for like THIRTY YEARS and then somehow come back to THE SAME BEACH???
birds can see COLORS THAT WE CANNOT SEE. there are colors happening RIGHT NOW that we don’t even get to know about.
there are sea slugs that eat algae and STEAL ITS CHLOROPLASTS and then are just like great thanks I’ll be PHOTOSYNTHESIZING NOW. there are mushrooms communicating underground. there are seeds sitting in the dirt for DECADES like no actually I will wait.
squirrels plant MILLIONS OF TREES because they simply cannot remember where they put their snacks.
A CATERPILLAR GOES INTO A LITTLE BAG, DISSOLVES MOST OF ITS BODY INTO ORGANIC SOUP, REARRANGES ITSELF, GROWS WINGS AND LEAVES.
and you’re telling me a tiny acorn knows how to become a 70-foot oak tree??? nobody tells it what to do??? it just has TREE INSTRUCTIONS INSIDE IT???
your body started as ONE CELL. ONE. and that cell divided itself into a brain that can think about its own existence and eyes that can look at stars and hands that can hold somebody else’s hands and a heart that runs on ELECTRICITY without you even asking it to???
the iron in your BLOOD was made inside a STAR.
I’M SORRY?????
we are walking around on a wet rock covered in bioluminescent oceans and singing whales and laughing rats and birds holding lifelong grudges and flowers exploding out of FIRE and somehow we’re supposed to act like this is a normal place to live?????????
You cannot have both "gender identity" and "sex" as protected classes. They're in conflict with one another. So pick one
You can prioritize the man for fear of hurting his feelings or you can protect the girls whom the sports team was designated for
Getting kicked out of a debate for stating a scientific fact is peak clown world behavior. If you have to force people to lie just so you can feel validated, you've already lost the argument. Joe was right, and no amount of outrage will change that
At least 9 men ran in the Female category in parkrun UK today.
This man got 1st Female.👇For the woman whom he bumped down to 2nd, it would have been her first ever 1st Female finish in 126 parkruns. Suck it up, Ladies! Men are more important! …

No one will ever convince me that this is a woman, or that what happened here isn’t dangerous and part of a much bigger issue.
People try to minimize my concerns as if I���m trying to be some kind of “bathroom security guard.” I’m not. I’m a woman concerned about what happens to women and children when boundaries and safeguards aren’t taken seriously.
Look at how he’s looking at me. I was terrified in that moment. And later, I learned he had a violent history involving his ex-wife.
This is about women being able to have boundaries, privacy, and safety without being shamed for saying so.
DocuSign founder Court Lorenzini warns the Democrats' "Millionaire Tax" is coming for the income of ALL WASHINGTONIANS within 2 years
"Regardless of your political affiliation, I encourage all WA State voters to fully understand the issue as you cast your ballots. This is being billed as a 'millionaires tax', but make no mistake - this is a state income tax that will be expanded to everyone if it's allowed to go into effect. EVERYONE will be subject to this income tax within a year or two if it isn't repealed.
WA State has historically made up for the lack of a Statewide income tax by taxing our consumption (gas taxes, property taxes, sales taxes, B&O taxes, etc). NONE of those taxes are going down or being reduced - I-645 is just MORE taxes for everyone.
We have an opportunity to repeal the WA State Income Tax
Vote YES on I-645 to stop the Income Tax"
Universities should pursue truth and prepare students to be citizens of the republic.
Tenured faculty must be held accountable — and those who don’t add value should be terminated.
They do this to little girls every single day because men won’t marry an uncut girl. In Somalia, they do it in private homes with no anesthetic. In the US and the UK, it’s done in doctor’s offices with modern pain meds, but that doesn’t make it any less barbarous.
This is what feminism was born to fight, but modern liberal feminists turn a blind eye because it goes against their narrative about how white men are the epitome of evil and Islam is a religion of peace. They ignore unimaginable female suffering because the people causing it aren’t the ones their ideology tells them to oppose.
“Transgender women” are men, and they always will be. Let’s stop calling them women when we all know darn well that they are not. This is a LIE that I refuse to accept.
@jcurleyshow , thank you for having me on your show today to discuss the most recent editorial board piece the @seattletimes put out against I-638.
To those writers at the Seattle Times—let me start by saying this: I wholeheartedly stand by, now more than ever, what I said about you before when you decided to pull the @Matt_Calkins article. You ARE a woke rag who silences the voices of anyone who has a differing opinion from yours.
I would also like to add that the only group doing the “fear-mongering” is you. You tell people and athletes that in order to play a sport, they have to have invasive genital exams. WRONG! I have been playing sports all my life, and never once have I had to expose myself to anyone just to prove I am a girl.
You tell the voters of Washington that it is only 10–12 athletes out of many and that they affect little to no athletes. WRONG AGAIN! 1 athlete is 1 too many. That one athlete can have an effect on a whole team, a whole locker room, a whole roster spot, and a girl who has worked countless hours just to get to the point where she is now.
You tell people that in order to have a safe and inclusive space for everyone, they should allow men to compete in their sports and be able to walk into their locker rooms whenever they please. What a load of BS. Have you been in a locker room when this has happened to you? Because I HAVE!
To think that a paper as large as yours is too afraid to let a column run about a 17-year-old girl’s experience of having an 18-year-old man play against her girls’ basketball team and go into her locker room when she was 15 is cowardice. I will say it again—you are cowards.
Here is the reality of what is happening: “transgender women” are men, and they always will be. Let’s stop calling them women when we all know darn well that they are not. This is a LIE that I refuse to accept.
Seattle Times Ed Board: Kate Riley, Ryan Blethen, Melissa Davis, Josh Farley, Alex Fryer, Claudia Rowe, Carlton Winfrey, Frank A. Blethen (emeritus), and William K. Blethen (emeritus): It is a shame that you are so deeply brainwashed that you are willing to publicly spread lies about Initiative 638. It is even more of a shame to think that I, a 17-year-old girl, have more common sense to be able to stand up for what is right.
I urge anyone who disagrees with me to meet with me face-to-face and have this discussion civilly. No need for hate or threats like I’ve been subjected to. I will make time: any place, anywhere, any time.
As the Times and others would like to spin it—this is NOT about hate. It never has been—it’s about protecting GIRLS.
The last thing I want to add is that the only thing we should say NO to is the news organizations like yours that choose to spread lies like this and have the audacity to make it look like you are trying to do the right thing. The people see through this.
I am calling on the people of Washington State to choose common sense and choose to do what’s RIGHT! Vote YES on 638 to protect the real women and girls who just want a safe and fair space to compete!
And for anyone hiding behind a screen saying this is AI or accusing me of not writing my own posts—this is all me. I also invite you to be brave like I have been and expose yourselves rather than hide and call a 17-year-old girl disgusting names. Takes a real tough guy to do that… about as tough as the Times for being too scared to listen to a 17-year-old’s side of the story.

SCOOP
WA School District issues INSANE gender policies VIOLATING multiple laws
Kennewick School District (@ksdschools) in WA sent out notices on their "Gender-Inclusive" policies that include:
-Using students' made-up names and pronouns
-Changing gender designation on school records
-Allowing boys to invade girls' bathrooms, locker rooms, and sports
-Keeping students' info a secret
-Punishing anyone who "harasses" students based on made-up gender identities
This school should be investigated and DEFUNDED @AAGDhillon@usedgov
The Chair of the Washington State Democratic Party, Shasti Conrad, has requested that we "cease use of the word 'Democrats'" in our name.
We are lifelong Democrats, and we will not let them censor our free speech.
Our opinion on protecting girls' sports from male competition represents the opinion of the majority of Democratic voters. https://t.co/MfVOI2tBsN
We are trying to lead the Democratic Party away from its unpopular, radical fringe position on girls' and women's sports.
We call on Washington State Democrats to cease their vicious attacks on us for simply expressing an opinion held by the vast majority of Democrats.
Vote YES on I-638 and I-001.
