In Europe I get a voting pass sent in the mail for every election. To vote I have to show both this pass and a valid ID. The pass is kept by the polling station. Easy and quick.

How come it is so difficult in the USA to exert your democratic right? Why does one of the parties fight against people voting?

Maybe Trump should ask for permission first.

Was there last month and it was like a hair dryer blowing into your face the enitre time.

No man? That seems like a gamble.

What? The president is definitely mentioned in the news. The Ayatollah is more important but he doesn't do everything alone. Also this president was a candidate to be the next Ayatollah.

But it will cause trouble, because it is now (treated as) a slur on Twitter. Depending on how strict they are you can't go around saying "as a cisgender" or having it in your bio.

No you are not engaging with the arguments I am making. Respect for what people associate with is different from a word being a slur, or treated as such. Going around calling people who does not want to be is disrespectful and is harrasment but it does not make a slur in a general sense.

Cisgendered is a word to describe people's gender identity, not for insulting.

That does not make it a slur and should not be treated as such.

If I were to troll people and call them white and whitey those words would not be considered a slur. Same with American, two footed, food chewer or bloodtype A+. Yet cisgender deserves special attention from Musk.

I wonder... could I let chatGPT get me a PhD?

Good job for the people trying to save animals!

OC is needed and should then shared on Reddit. But Reddit has changed to incentivize content posted on Reddit, so any OC will probably be stolen.
