  1. "She then encouraged those around the alleged aggressor to identify them, saying: “I need you guys to be tattletales – who’s the fucking freak that’s hurting everybody? Point them out.”

    People came to see the band, not deal with some asshole who can't operate in a social setting.

  3. What the fuck is the problem with men in leadership?
    Their ability to ride roughshod over anyone who disagrees with them is mind boggling. That they practice lies, cruelty and greed with such fluency is beyond deeply disturbing.
    These are not the actions of males performing acts of masculinity, they are preoccupied egomaniacs. It’s all about me, me, me, me, me, me.

    #BarronTrump facing questions if he had ‘any involvement’ with #TateBrothers’ crimes

    Alex Woodward, Friday 24 July 2026

    - Democratic Rep. Yassamin Ansari is urging the House Oversight Committee to investigate the Tate brothers' connections to individuals in the administration's orbit, including Barron Trump.

    - Ansari specifically requested Barron Trump testify about his knowledge or involvement with Andrew and Tristan Tate, who are accused of sexual abuse and trafficking.

    - The manosphere influencers were arrested in Miami following a U.K. extradition request for serious trafficking and sexual abuse allegations, with the White House not expected to block their extradition.

    - But Barron Trump was reportedly a fan of Andrew Tate and spoke to him over Zoom in 2024, according to The New York Times. Donald Trump Jr. also reportedly met Tate at Trump Tower in 2017, and Alina Habba, a former attorney to the president who briefly served as the top federal prosecutor in New Jersey, described herself as a “big fan” during a January 2025 podcast appearance.

    - Ansari is also seeking records from the Department of Justice and State Department regarding communications between U.S., British, and Romanian authorities concerning the Tate brothers' investigation and extradition.

  7. Reyes ordered both parties in the lawsuit to address “the similarities & differences in administering TRT, both medically & logistically, for #trans men compared to other service members, including cis individuals.” She was using the acronym for #testosterone replacement therapy.

  9. #US District Judge Ana Reyes in Washington raised the question Wednesday in an ongoing lawsuit against #Trump’s ban on #transgender troops. Reyes noted that Trump’s ban says “the Armed Forces must adhere to high mental & physical health standards...without the benefit of routine medical treatment or special provisions.”

    Judge questions difference between #Hegseth's #testosterone policy & #transgender care for troops

    Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s new initiative to test & treat troops for low testosterone has prompted a federal judge to question the differences between that kind of testosterone replacement therapy & hormone treatment for transgender men in the military.

  15. I've just had someone tell me the reason I "hate men" is because of peri-menopause.

    Babe. Babe! Have I got some news for you about my last 40 years...

  17. @lbcp Hegseth’s obsession with the output of other men’s testicles is an embarrassment to the country. Toxic masculinity at its stupidest.

  18. The goal, #Hegseth said in a social media message accompanying the video, was a “High-T Department of War,” Hegseth’s preferred name for the #Defense Department.

    Hegseth’s focus on #testosterone levels at a moment when #US forces are ramping up attacks in #Iran is “unorthodox” [inexplicable]. Defense secretaries typically focus on larger strategic questions, involving #alliances, #war & #weapons production.

  20. #Defense Secretary Pete #Hegseth announced Wednesday a new mandatory screening program to test all service members over the age of 30, including women, for #testosterone deficiency annually.

    #Hormone treatment for #troops with low testosterone will be voluntary.

    “Our most decisive tactical advantage will always be the individual warfighter,” Hegseth said in a video from his #Pentagon office. “We have a sacred duty to maintain that advantage.”

  22. This is BAT SHIT CRAZY!!!

    "High-T Department"

    Defense Secretary Pete #Hegseth has announced the #US #military will start testing #testosterone levels of service members in an initiative aimed at "restoring & optimizing" their capabilities.

    He wants manly men. And apparently manly women, because he’s testing them too. But no trans people are allowed. Make it make sense!

  24. CW: USPol - US Military - Testosterone is the answer. What was the question?

    Almost confused this with something from The Onion.

    "Pete Hegseth says soldiers over age 30 to be screened for testosterone deficiency."

    "“Warfighters” aged 30 and above will undergo annual tests as part of their health assessments, while those under 30 can choose to opt in, Hegseth said."

    "...young men are being aggressively targeted online by influencers and wellness companies promoting hormone tests and treatments as essential to being a “real man”, despite screening for low testosterone being medically unwarranted in most people in this age group."

    theguardian.com/us-news/2026/j

    The (obvious) problem here is that the military already has toxic masculinity baked into its DNA. The pressure to present and act more masculine than those around you is unnecessarily intense and produces more problems than solutions.

    This will just bring that stress to a boil.

  26. CW: sex ad posted by someone who most likely lacks a personality

    (ETA: it's been moderated out of existence. There's a rule in that forum that our ads must contain substantial kink. I guess "I've got a big cock" does not cut it.)

    Title of the ad: "I don't understand why some women want a BIG COCK..."

    Content of the ad: "And when it's right there... in thier grasp.... they miss the chance.... message me. My profile is very real."

    When you look at this cithet man's profile, it is more or less the same message as in the ad but in different words. It is all about his penis.

    :headache:

    Dude... if you make your penis your entire personality, women are going to pass on this. I'm pretty sure even the size queens want a man with more personality than his penis.

    It is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity."

  29. “Als #frau die – wie männliche #rapper seit jeher – bewusst provoziert, ist Ikkimel aber zugleich eines der größten Hassobjekte der #republik . „Ich wünsche dir eine syrische Gruppenvergewaltigung“, schreiben ihr #manner . „Pass auf, wenn du durch #berlin läufst“, oder „Hoffe du stirbst bald“. #ikkimel macht die #Hassnachrichten öffentlich. Sie zeigen: Der Vorwurf des „Männerhasses“, der ihr gemacht wird, steht in keinem Verhältnis zum realen Hass, der #frauen in diesem Land entgegenschlägt.”

  30. more detail on BBC #Wales news - alas, the dispute started following a music event in #Cardiff and a trivial argument.

    It seems relatively light minimum tariff is due to the defendant handing himself in the next day, an early guilty plea (but to manslaughter rather than murder, presumably in the hope of further reducing the #prison time) and the person killed not being the actual target

    Lad apparently had 0 #criminal record before doing this - British society *really* needs to do something about #ToxicMasculinity - it is regularly claiming lives and overwhelming the crminal justice system in what is an otherwise relatively safe and prosperous country..

  32. “Die Krisen und Herausforderungen, vor denen wir stehen, sind nicht das Resultat zufälliger Ausrutscher – sie haben eine lange Vorgeschichte, sie lassen sich nur in der und aus der Kontinuität der Geschichte erklären. Aber jetzt überlagern und verstärken sie sich auf eine Weise, die eine ungeheure Veränderungsdynamik entfesselt – so sehr, dass wir über diesen Moment als tiefgreifende Zäsur nachdenken müssen, als einen Bruch mit Gegenwart und Geschichte.”
    Auch die gerade mehr Recht als schlecht überstande #hitze muss dazugezählt werden. Und #merz nicht_reaktion.
