@BuenoForMiami @Vote4JKendall Love that you protected your boys. It’s very hard for people who’ve been mutilated to see it objectively. Many such cases

@BuenoForMiami Exactly. Seems non-consensual, and a breach of fiduciary duty, to me

Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité - in that order.

Égalité without Liberté is a recipe for disaster.

99% of women and girls in Somalia have been mutilated in the following way: the clitoris is cut off, along with the inner labia. Then the inner flesh of the outer labia is removed before both sides are sewn tightly together, leaving a hole no bigger than a matchstick for urine and menses to trickle through.

All of this is done in childhood, and without any form of anesthesia whatsoever. Sometimes the little girl is given a scrap of leather or a stick to bite down on. The cutters use old razor blades, or sometimes a piece of broken glass.

This is only the beginning of a girl’s pain.

Most wedding nights in Somalia are aided by “the little knife” — that is, the new husband slices his bride open so that he can penetrate her now cut and bleeding scar tissue. Some men, however, simply batter their way through, tearing that tiny hole open by sheer force. When a woman goes into labor, she’s cut open more widely, then sewn back up afterwards so that when sex resumes she will have to be cut open yet again.

This practice leads to countless deaths from infection and a drastic increase in maternal mortality, but Somali men still refuse to marry uncut women, forcing mothers to have their daughters cut or face social stigma. Uncut girls are seen as dirty; the term for clitoris is a playground taunt in Somalia, and girls who are not cut are usually ostracized by their peers.

The Somali government recently debated the legality of this appalling custom, and the parliament largely split along gender lines. Female MPs roundly condemned FGM, while male MPs insisted that having a clitoris made a woman more difficult to penetrate, and quoted the hadith in which Muhammad condoned the practice. These are educated men who nevertheless claim that cutting a girl is necessary in order to control her sexuality, and that an uncut woman will be promiscuous and untrustworthy.

In spite of the Somali government’s continued support for FGM, foreign aid continues to flow into Somalia unobstructed. The West should refuse to give the Somali government so much as a single dollar until they outlaw FGM and take positive steps to combat the problem.

One tactic that has been highly successful involves showing Somali men a video of a girl being mutilated. Because FGM is seen as women’s business, most men have no idea what it entails. Men who watch this video are horrified, and the most common reaction has been “Not my daughter!” This proves that FGM is not hopelessly entrenched in Somali culture. Western pressure and resources could make an enormous difference in the lives of Somali women and girls, and put a stop to this barbaric practice.

@BuenoForMiami Carrots off the menu too? And is the tomato not alive?

@BuenoForMiami Pre-agricultural people used to worship their hunted animals as gods - basically giving gratitude for the life that is taken. Simply giving attention to what I eat is a step in the right direction

[Robbie Miles - Live and Let Live @RobbieMiles5]

@BuenoForMiami We kill the plants too when we eat them. Humans have been grappling with the reality of killing animals/plants to eat for thousands of years. I tried vegan for 2 years - kept getting sick. Now I eat meat consciously - from animals with the most freedom/quality of life I can find

Much of the vilification of Israel acting in self-defense is unjust, but the terrorism against Arab villages in the West Bank by settler thugs, tolerated by the Netanyahu government, is horrific. It deserves harsh criticism pressure to stop it. https://t.co/D6FTyNODZL

[Mustafa Akyol @AkyolinEnglish]

Muslims do not need any blasphemy laws, anywhere.

For neither God, the Prophet, nor the Quran need our “protection.”

Plus, when we vow to kill people for “insulting” them, we do not achieve any “respect” for them.

For respect is earned by virtue, not extracted by threats.

.@JamesTalarico on Texas officially banning THC:

“This bill is insane.

Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. Texans will still use THC — but instead of getting it safely from a local small business, they’ll go back to getting it from the black market. From the drug cartels.

This ban is a gift to the cartels.

We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst.

Instead of fully funding our schools, guaranteeing healthcare, or making childcare more affordable — this Legislature is focused on banning a product that gives people a little peace.

We’re making people’s lives harder, not easier.

I want to leave you with a quote: ‘It is time to end needless arrests and incarcerations of adults for small amounts of marijuana for personal use.’ That wasn’t a Democrat. That was President Donald Trump.

To my Republican colleagues, I’m asking you to oppose the cartels, stand with President Trump, and vote no on this insane bill.”

Elon’s advice to 20-year-olds on surviving the AI era:

Get as broad-based an education as possible: arts, sciences, engineering, and wide general knowledge.

Why?

AI and robots will fulfill almost any request immediately.The edge won’t be doing the work. It will be knowing what to ask for. The broader your knowledge, the better your questions.
