"The" transgender is so cringe. You don't say "the straight" or "the cis" do you? Transgender is an adjective, not a noun.

The assumption in itself only makes two - serious - errors: First the law of large numbers says nothing about the individual case. So while statistically over time a virus will get less virulent, this does not mean that no strain could become more dangerous, just that the more dangerous variants with a certain probability will decrease in numbers over time if they tend to seriously incapacitate the majority of hosts - while there still can be people dying from it. Second, less virulent does not mean less contagious- quite the opposite. The "perfect" scenario would be an extremely contagious virus with very few symptoms. What surprises me most is the fact that this argument is often brought on by people who generally reject the idea of evolution - while this mechanism is quite what evolution is all about.

40 Hilarious Parenting Tweets About What It’s Like To Raise Kids In The Age Of Alexa And Siri

And that is why I don't own an Alexa. I may be paranoid but you hear of all these responsible companies 'losing' your data because of security flaws in their software and then you go and install a robot listening device in your home. Which goes nicely with your mobile tracking device in your pocket or handbag. Thank-you very much but I'm out.

“Not Letting Patients Get Any Sleep”: 30 Things That Should Not Be Normal In Healthcare, According To Twitter Users

It took me until my early 30's to find an OB/GYN who would sterilize me. I have known since I was a kid that I don't want children. I have horrible side affects from birth control, so that wasn't an option. It is absolutely ridiculous.

She may want her tubes tied or some other (semi) permanent form of birth control. This might be for myriad reasons to do with managing pain, or not wanting children at all. But doctors are reluctant to "deny" the possibility of future children to a woman. She will be denied the appropriate treatment *now* because she *might* change her mind in the future. (And, of course, giving birth naturally is the only way to be a *real* mother /s)

Actually I read somewhere it was not to hide the fact that the UK had radar (as the Germans had Freya and Wurzburg) radar systems, which the British knew and captured in operation Biting). But to hide the fact that the British had it miniaturised enough to allow mounting them on planes.

I know, right?

Think of all that free milk and beans I'd be getting from the government. That's the life. Man, I feel sorry for all those upper middle class people who have to pay over three times my entire yearly income in taxes, who only have homes in the most expensive zip codes in the country. That would majorly suck. /s
