While you are correct, the traditional FGM as proposed by Kellogg (the guy who made non-religious circumcision popular in the US to prevent masturbation) was burning off the clitoris using an acid.

That's why he "sold" Twitter to xAI. It's no longer "his", so he can't be forced to sell it. Loopholes within loopholes, it's the billionaire way.

Sadly that's nearly impossible due to gerrymandering. For example, this is one of the districts in the state shaped to confine as many blue votes as possible to a single district: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas%27s_35th_congressional_district

If it was truly her that said it, she would have been even younger than that. The book in which it's written (which is known to not be fully factual and in which the quote is attributed to "a great princess") was written when Antoinette was 9 years old. But it wasn't published until she was 26, eight years after she became queen.

"If they have no bread, let them eat cake." sounds like something I would expect a 6-7yo who had never gone without luxury food to say.

At which point you have to slurp down a few hundred terabytes from the other datacenters when the power turns back on.

This is why Google datacenter managers hesitate to turn off the power even when an employee is in the process of getting electrocuted.

Do you have Google's Messages app installed? If it actually does what they claim on the tin, maybe it was only installed on phones with the Messages app installed?

Ah yes, there should have been more "in the sense of fairness, let us talk about the pros of torturing your child into submission". What is journalism coming to these days, leaving out such important information?

All trans prisoners at the federal (not state) level were already kept in a single prison where the medical staff had specialized training in the medical needs of trans people. Unfortunately, that single prison is in Texas, a state that is eager to tow the Republican party line.

And some genuinely could care less about looking at either.

My favorite is a major credit card company with case-insensitive passwords. They also only allow a small handful of special characters, so the total possible character space is roughly 42 characters. Needless to say, I chose to use a password that was the maximum allowed length (which was sadly also only 32 characters).

Researchers have done sonograms of women before and after arousal, with them having used the restroom immediately at the start of the process to control for initial urine levels. The bladder of a squirter fills rapidly with liquid prior to squirting, significantly faster than it does in similar non-arousal conditions. When you pee, you never void all of the urine in the bladder, so there is definitely pee in squirt, but the urea content was significantly lower than in the pre-arousal urine. IIRC, the researchers determined that the added liquid is mostly just water.

So, squirt is pee, but if she's gone to the bathroom recently, it's very diluted pee.

It's possible the form listed the drugs she was on, but the social worker didn't know it was their job to figure out which results to ignore.

I've literally seen a Texas judge - who not only presumably court ordered drug tests regularly, but was also an ex-nurse - not understand how drug tests work. She assumed the lab would eliminate prescription-caused positives from the results. It took subpoenaing the tech who administered the test - a person in the same courthouse - to take the stand and tell the judge "we just list what the test found and what meds the person said they were taking, it's someone else's job to cross reference the two" before the judge stopped assuming the person on prescription Adderall was a meth head.

If an ex-nurse who deals with drug tests on a nearly daily basis doesn't understand how they work, I wouldn't be surprised at all if it turned out that a social worker misinterpreted the results similarly.
