No actually. They let the bill proposing to make unborn children dependents on your taxes die. So we get all the punishments, and none of the benefits.

Unfortunately they made embryos children for the purposes of punishments, but let the bill die that would have made them dependents on taxes.

Even before this I would get really pissed when people casually said "It will happen when the time is right. God has a plan, though it isn't one we understand." In Alabama I was recently at the dentist, getting my teeth cleaned to the tune of religious music, hearing the hygienist say this bullshit to me.

That is not legal. They have made embryos children when looking for people to put in jail, and not children when looking to give out benefits. Very convenient for the state budget!

No the religious zealots here do not. School coaches require prayer before practices and games, same sex couples get banned from prom, kids at school get tricked into going to fun after school events that turn out to actually be evangelism stunts. A lot of applications to educational programs, gymnastics programs, and jobs ask about "leadership" which is code for experience as a church deacon or active evangelist.

We almost got this with Alabama 2023 bill HB182 which would grant unborn children as dependents on taxes. The bill didn't pass. These people want children to count only when dolling out punishments.

We here in bama have been preferring the term Talibama.

My company gave a temporary 2% raise to everyone last year due to inflation. This year they said inflation was not up, so they took away the raise. The audacity!

I was astounded at how many refrigerators were described as junk when reading about the different new options available. Repairmen on YouTube were like "Avoid Samsung, Whirlpool, Frigidaire, LG, Midea, ..." Listing almost every brand.

What is a pure function? Never heard that before.

I was just about to say this! I never saw any "xxx country is a shithole" post on Reddit without so much backlash. It was annoying.

So? Please go find something productive to do.
