"Lawmakers and regulators around the world have been prolific with passing legislation restricting freedom of expression and privacy for LGBTQ+ individuals and fueling offline intolerance. Online platforms are also complicit in this pervasive ecosystem by censoring pro-LGBTQ+ speech, forcing LGBTQ+ individuals to self-censor or turn to VPNs to avoid being profiled, harassed, doxxed, or criminally prosecuted.
The fight for the safety and rights of LGBTQ+ people is not just a fight for visibility online (and offline)—it’s a fight for survival. This International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia, we’re sharing four essential tips for LGBTQ+ people to stay safe online."

The image shows a cat lying on a bed with a floral-patterned bedspread. The cat has a white and gray coat with distinctive markings, including a gray patch on its head and a brown spot on its front paw. Its eyes are green, and it has a pink nose. The cat is positioned with its front paws extended forward, and its body is relaxed. The background includes a window with horizontal blinds, allowing some light to filter into the room. Outside the window, a red-tiled roof is visible. The cat appears to be looking directly at the camera.

Physicists at Cornell University figured out how to chop onions without crying and the results are FASCINATING.
tl;dr chopping quickly with a blunt knife releases larger onion juice droplets at higher velocities resulting in more contact with your eyes and thus, more tears. Slower slicing with a sharp knife = less tears.
James Comer appears to believe that the essential element of corruption is that it be hidden rather than overt, @PBump writes.
"Because Hunter Biden’s business activity wasn’t immediately public — he was a private citizen, after all — Comer presented the details he dug up as suspicious. ... Comer has not released a public statement about the Qatari plane. Presumably, he’s fine with it, because it’s public." wapo.st/4kmJ6bC
