This isn't a hack, that is just the cover for a leak.

First United submitted a cash bid of $3.5 million dollars. By contrast, Cicack said, The Onion’s bid contained only $1.75 million in cash, alongside a waiver from the Connecticut families setting aside any of their earnings from the auctioned assets.

But Cicack challenged the use of this waiver, arguing it was "conditional and contingent" and "the equivalent of 'monopoly' money" and "simply has no value."

All money is monopoly money. It's all fake paper that has no intrinsic value, because the true value is what everyone agrees on. Their waiver ensure more monopoly money to the plaintiffs than your monopoly money bid.

You lost. Shut up. Go home.

I'm sorry that this is how the world treats you. It's not fair and you shouldn't have to put up with it. Thank you for sharing, I'll keep you in my thoughts.

As Trump ascends to the white house, his ever loyal lawyer and once hailed "Hero of New York" struggles to retain his basic possessions.

Which I find fucking hilarious, but should be a warning to the current MAGA faithful. lol

There clearly needs to be some counter-measure to misinformation about testosterone therapy, this is not like trans healthcare.

The main hurdle to trans healthcare is simmiliar misinformation spread by those same type of manosphere or evangelical actors. Many will say that trans folk receiving care are simmiliarly brainwashed or misinformed. I don't see value in a 3rd party saying a patient is receiving care from a doctor for the" wrong" reasons.

Disinformation will always exist, especially among the general public. Which is the exact reason informed consent and a knowledgeable health professional explaining the risks is so important. It's not our place to say another is misguided in the persuit of reproductive or gender affirming care.

Or is that the bridge too far?

I certainly don't think so. The right to live as you please should also extend to not live as you please. However just as we should make knowledgeable medical professionals available to those seeking gender or reproductive care, we should do the same seeking of life care.

I get regular blood tests to ensure medication is working as intended, so mental health screening should be applied to those suffering from depression or other mental health issues to ensure that their given adequate alternatives. While still remaining available to those suffering chronic conditions that significantly affect quality of life. I am also a disabled person who live in persistent pain without a clear end date. Who is to say when exactly another person life suffering should be extended purely for the sake of extending life irrespective of the quality?

At the end of the day, bodily autonomy is the ideal but informed consent given by medical professional about risks and alternatives is the method.

Gender affirming care is not just for trans people, it should be available to everyone. While I can understand the unknown worries with studies only being done on older men, this is a clear sign that research on younger men should be prioritized.

When I was first prescribed my own hormone therapy as a trans woman, it was made quite clear that there was not a large body of research done on the long term effects. Which was an acceptable risk to improve my life drastically. It's called informed consent, cis men and women deserve the same choice. Just as men do with hair implants or women getting breast implants.

Bodily autonomy should always be the final word. It's their body, so it's their choice.

Depends, if my 35 year old marries a 65 year old then I chalk it up to different life goals and preferences for consenting adults and enjoy the lavish wedding.

If my 18 year old marries anyone over the age of lets say... 21? I start talking about power imbalances, finical abuse and grooming non-stop until they are divorced. Honestly, even if their spouse was a reasonable age, I would do my very best to talk ANY 18 year old out of marriage.
