What is it worth to get a few more years on your life?

Would you be willing to become part pig? An amalgamation?

I once read a novel, it was old, maybe from the 1930s or before, about a man who lived on an old farm, and there were ancient passages under his land, with some ancient evil living there, and his house was constantly getting raided at night by pig people. I don’t remember the name of it. I don’t think the author was particularly famous and was sort of doing his own take on HP Lovecraft and Ambrose Bierce (both of whom were much better than the writer of this story I’m talking about).

Anyway, I will always think of that when I think of pig humanoids.

I wouldn’t want to be a pig humanoid.

I’d rather die.

CNN:

For 66-year-old Tim Andrews, it was a matter of life or death.

Andrews had spent the better part of two years on dialysis because of end-stage kidney disease. He was on the transplant wait list for a new kidney, but his blood type made it particularly difficult to find a donor organ.

The average wait time for a kidney is three to five years at most centers, but studies have found that people with type-O blood can wait as long as 10 years to receive a kidney. His chances of living five more years on long-term dialysis are just around 35%. His doctors estimated that he had about a 9% chance of getting an organ in the next five years.

Andrews said he had a “shortage of time.”

“It really becomes very, very depressing that this is it, you know? ” he recalls thinking. “This is how I’m going to end my life. I’m going to be going to dialysis and being tired.”

So Andrews didn’t hesitate when his doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital asked whether he would consider an experimental transplant using a kidney from a donor pig.

How could you not hesitate?

Nigga, you’re 66.

How long are you planning on going for? As a pig humanoid?

“All of a sudden, I’m not in the darkness. I’m going to get better. I am going to do this,” Andrews said in a hospital interview shared with journalists.

On Friday, doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital announced that Andrews had successfully received the pig kidney. The January 25 procedure took place through the US Food and Drug Administration’s Expanded Access pathway, often known as compassionate use, which allows patients with life-threatening conditions to access investigational medical products. He’ll be the first in a three-patient study and is the second person currently living in the world with a pig kidney.

The team at Massachusetts General used an organ developed by Cambridge, Massachusetts-based biotech company eGenesis.

“Our three-patient study this year will provide critical insights into the long-term viability of xenotransplants as a transformative solution for thousands of patients in need of a life-saving kidney,” Dr. Leonardo Riella, medical director for kidney transplantation at Massachusetts General Hospital, said in a statement.

The practice of transplanting animal organs into humans, known as xenotransplantation, has long felt like science fiction. However, in the past three years, half a dozen such procedures have taken place in the United States using pigs that have been genetically modified, so their organs are more compatible with humans’.

Using the gene-editing technique CRISPR, scientists can modify the pig’s DNA. eGenesis workers make more than 60 edits to help manage a host of potential issues including rejection, size of the organ and even pig retroviruses that could potentially infect humans.

Another biotech company, United Therapeutics, announced this week that it had received the green light from the FDA to move forward with a xenotransplant trial with its pig kidneys, which have 10 gene edits. The company expects to perform the first of six initial transplants in people with end-stage kidney disease in the middle of 2025, with the intent of expanding the trial to a total of 50 patients.

United Therapeutics expects pig kidney transplants to be an established option for patients by the end of this decade, spokesperson Dewey Steadman said.

If they can grow pig-humanoid organs, they could just as easily grow human organs from your cells.

But do we really need any of this?

Is death not a part of life? The most important part?

The judge is probably right that Trump’s order is illegal under the current framework of US law.

Basically, the Constitutional guarantees of “free association” were destroyed by a series of laws that required “civil rights” equalities for blacks and then for women. Then the gays got those rights. Then the trannies.

In order to actually do federal bans on trannies getting access to women’s federal facilities, you would need to overturn the entire “civil rights” infrastructure, or you would need to pass a law in Congress saying that there are only two genders and therefore “trans” people do not exist and cannot be protected by civil rights legislation.

Of course, the entire framework of US law as it stands right now is basically creative writing, so there is probably some weasel way to ban trannies from US women’s prisons without an act of Congress. I’m not an expert in this field.

The Guardian:

A US judge has temporarily blocked federal prisons from transferring transgender women to men’s facilities and barring their access to hormone therapy, halting one of Donald Trump’s executive orders seeking to erode trans rights behind bars.

A lawsuit filed last week by three incarcerated trans women challenged Trump’s anti-trans order, which directed the US bureau of prisons to make sure “males are not detained in women’s prisons or housed in women’s detention centers” and that no federal funds go to gender-affirming treatment or procedures for people in custody.

The US district judge Royce Lamberth in Washington on Tuesday issued a temporary restraining order, ruling late on Tuesday that Trump’s order discriminates against transgender people and violates their constitutional rights.

The bureau must “maintain and continue the plaintiffs’ housing status and medical care as they existed immediately prior to January 20”, he wrote.

The judge said the trans women had “straightforwardly demonstrated that irreparable harm will follow” if they are denied healthcare and forced into men’s institutions.

…

On 26 January, a federal judge in Boston issued a restraining order in a separate challenge to the same executive order. That order was limited to one transgender woman in a woman’s prison.

Trump and his people were no-doubt aware that all of these executive orders, or at least most of them, were going to be hit with blocks from our overlords, the court system.

It’s not even clear what any of these EOs are worth, as the courts are only just now getting around to responding to them, given that Trump fired off so many of them at once.

Probably, most of the deportation orders can stand, as illegal immigration is already clearly illegal, though even there, you have various “human rights” laws which claim that these people are “seeking asylum” and therefore can live on welfare and commit crimes in the United States forever.

It would be much more meaningful if Trump was actually barraging Congress with laws and forcing them through. Republicans control both houses of Congress, so that is in theory something that is possible.

Pres. Trump said he will sign an executive order to appoint Attorney General Pam Bondi as the head of an anti-Christian bias task force, which will aim to “halt all forms of anti-Christian targeting and discrimination within the federal government.” https://t.co/XKgxOUVEqO pic.twitter.com/zOZ7XIsWXX

The Jews are back to pushing their evangelical boomer scam to promote war in the Middle East.

This is another part of that particular program.

Pam Bondi (real name, apparently) is going to be pushing for mass censorship of Israel criticism and then saying it’s the Christian thing to do.

Pure heresy.

AP:

President Donald Trump said Thursday that he wants to root out “anti-Christian bias” in the U.S., announcing that he was forming a task force led by Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate the “targeting” of Christians.

Speaking at a pair of events in Washington surrounding the the National Prayer Breakfast, Trump said the task force would be directed to “immediately halt all forms of anti-Christian targeting and discrimination within the federal government, including at the DOJ, which was absolutely terrible, the IRS, the FBI — terrible — and other agencies.”

Trump said Bondi would also work to “fully prosecute anti-Christian violence and vandalism in our society and to move heaven and earth to defend the rights of Christians and religious believers nationwide.”

Hours after the two events, Trump signed an executive order directing the new task force to identify unlawful policies, practices, or conduct by all executive departments and agencies, and recommend any additional presidential or legislative action.

Early in the day, the president joined the National Prayer Breakfast at the Capitol, a more than 70-year-old Washington tradition that brings together a bipartisan group of lawmakers for fellowship. He told lawmakers there that his relationship with religion had “changed” after a pair of failed assassination attempts last year and urged Americans to “bring God back” into their lives.

An hour after calling for “unity” on Capitol Hill, though, Trump struck a more partisan tone at the second event across town, announcing that, in addition to the task force, he was forming a commission on religious liberty. He criticized the Biden administration for “persecution” of believers for prosecuting anti-abortion advocates.

Trump also announced the creation of a White House faith office led by Paula White-Cain, a longtime pastor in the independent charismatic world. An early supporter of Trump’s 2016 presidency bid, she led Trump’s Faith and Opportunity Initiative in 2019, advising faith-based organizations on ways to partner with the federal government.

At Thursday’s prayer breakfast, she praised Trump as “the greatest champion” any president has been “of religion, of faith and of God.”

She’s the religious advisor “that he appears to trust the most,” said Matthew Taylor, a Protestant scholar and author of “The Violent Take It By Force: The Christian Movement That Is Threatening Our Democracy,” a 2024 book about the roles of White-Cain and other charismatic leaders who have been among Trump’s most fervent supporters.

Some people are calling this out.

It makes sense that the mothers of trannies would be upset by this change by the Trump Administration that more or less completely bans these procedures.

If you’ve already begun mutilating your child, you’re all in. You can’t just back out of it. You’ve totally committed yourself to this program, and the fact that it is now unfashionable is not something you are going to be able to accept.

It reminds me of when that bluepilled cuck David French, of the National Review, freaked out about people no longer thinking it was fashionable to have an “adopted” African child.

Except in that case, he could return that African child he bought. He wouldn’t get a refund. But he could return it. If you’ve already irreversibly mutilated your child because you thought trannies were a fashion that was here to stay, you can’t really walk it back.

Reuters:

Families of transgender children on Tuesday asked a federal court to block U.S. President Donald Trump’s order to end all federal funding or support for healthcare that aids gender transitions for people younger than 19.

In a lawsuit filed against the Trump administration in Maryland federal court, the families, who are represented by Lambda Legal and the American Civil Liberties Union, allege that the order discriminates against transgender people and goes beyond Trump’s authority as president. LGBT advocacy group PFLAG is also a plaintiff.

I wonder if those lawyers are part of the Chinese communist conspiracy?

Is “Pizer” a Chinese name?

As a result of the order, the lawsuit said, hospitals across the country have already begun canceling appointments for gender transition treatments, often called gender-affirming care, which can include puberty blocking drugs, hormones and sometimes surgery. The plaintiffs are expected to seek a temporary restraining order as soon as possible that would allow hospitals to resume treatment, a lawyer at Lambda Legal said on Tuesday.

The plaintiffs say their appointments were canceled in recent days by Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C., NYU Langone in New York, Boston Children’s Hospital and Children’s Hospital of Richmond in Virginia. The hospitals are not defendants in the case.

Who knows what will happen to these trannies when they get their supplies of hormones cut off.

Maybe they’ll kill themselves. But they were going to do that anyway, so what difference does it make?

Frankly, these women who do this to their kids are worse than the Jews who came up with the idea.

Like the coronavirus hoax, this bird flu thing was made up whole cloth.

it’s just total nonsense.

During the coronavirus hoax, the health authorities, a hive of scum and villainy, gained all these wild new powers, and they’re just exercising them arbitrarily to murder birds based on unfounded claims with no supporting evidence.

Why doesn’t someone tell them to prove these birds have the flu?

The Guardian:

Egg prices in the US have risen steeply over the last several weeks. Experts say they are likely to climb further as an avian flu outbreak decimates flocks across the country.

Though the avian flu has been in the US since 2022, the largest outbreak started in October and is still affecting millions of hens. About 14.7 million egg-producing chickens have been affected by the avian flu since the start of January, surpassing the number of hens affected in all of 2023, according to data from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA).

“Based on the amount of birds that we have lost in the last few months, and the hen population, there just isn’t enough production to support the amount of demand that we have,” said Karyn Rispoli, managing director of eggs at the price-tracking firm Expana. “We’re at a point now where we’re truly in a shortage.”

In December the number of table eggs produced fell 4.5% compared with the same period last year, according to the USDA. With more hens infected with the avian flu in January, the number of eggs will probably continue to drop.

The avian flu is specifically affecting hens that produce table eggs as they are kept alive longer than broiler chickens, which are used for meat, making them more susceptible to infection during their lifetime. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that human infections of the avian flu are rare.

The wholesale price of a dozen large eggs has been climbing as much as 40 cents a week as farmers struggle to produce enough eggs to keep up with demand. As of 24 January, the wholesale price of a dozen large eggs was $7.24 in New York, $6.84 in the midwest and $8.35 in California.

Ending the current avian flu outbreak will be tough. Egg producers have been lobbying the federal government to help fund vaccine research and biosecurity to address the outbreak. The virus can spread from wild birds to domestic hens, and while the disease is known to spread from bird-to-bird contact, scientists are still unsure whether infections are airborne.

If a single chicken in a flock is infected, the whole flock becomes at risk of infection. Orders for new chicks can take up to a year and a half to be fulfilled, meaning it is unclear when the number of egg-producing hens will get back to normal levels.

Why are they killing these birds with foam?

Consequences for your belief in “viruses”.

Top wokester “Pope Francis” is joining the chorus of condemnation against DeepSeek AI, without saying it outright.

You cannot regulate so-called “fake news” (most of which is true) without a massive censorship apparatus.

The Pope is obviously constantly condemning alleged fake news because he doesn’t want people to find out about his pederastic behaviors, which are well-known.

RT:

The global center of Catholicism has issued a stark warning about the dangers of artificial intelligence technology, cautioning that its misuse could destabilize society and calling for its responsible development.

In a just-released document titled Antiqua et nova, the Vatican examines the relationship between human and machine intelligence, warning that deceptive digital content could “gradually undermine the foundations of society.”

Concerns are raised about the ability of advanced systems to generate manipulated media that closely resembles reality. The document warns that misinformation, even when spread unintentionally, can fuel political polarization and social unrest. “This issue requires careful regulation, as misinformation–especially through AI-controlled or influenced media–can spread unintentionally,” it states.

…

The Vatican also called on governments and international organizations to implement safeguards against misuse of technology, adding that it must serve humanity and not replace human intelligence.

It can’t “replace human intelligence.” That is not within the realm of possibility, unless it was able to get information from non-humans, which it cannot do, because there is no intelligent non-human being in the galaxy.

Hey, well – this is gross.

We really should not be making new kinds of people, should we?

The Guardian:

Mass-producing eggs and sperm in a laboratory in order to have a baby with yourself or three other people in a “multiplex” parenting arrangement might sound like the plot of a dystopian novel.

But these startling scenarios are under consideration by the UK’s fertility watchdog, which has concluded that the technology could be on the brink of viability.

Bolstered by Silicon Valley investment, scientists are making such rapid progress that lab-grown human eggs and sperm could be a reality within a decade, a meeting of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority board heard last week.

In-vitro gametes (IVGs), eggs or sperm that are created in the lab from genetically reprogrammed skin or stem cells, are viewed as the holy grail of fertility research.

The technology promises to remove age barriers to conception and could pave the way for same-sex couples to have biological children together. It also poses unprecedented medical and ethical risks, which the HFEA now believes need to be considered in a proposed overhaul of fertility laws.

Peter Thompson, chief executive of the HFEA, said: “In-vitro gametes have the potential to vastly increase the availability of human sperm and eggs for research and, if proved safe, effective, and publicly acceptable, to provide new fertility treatment options for men with low sperm counts and women with low ovarian reserve.”

The technology also heralds more radical possibilities including “solo parenting” and “multiplex parenting”. Julia Chain, chair of HFEA, said: “It feels like we ought to have Steven Spielberg on this committee,” in a brief moment of levity in the discussion of how technology should be regulated.

Lab-grown eggs have already been used produce healthy babies in mice – including ones with two biological fathers. The equivalent feat is yet to be achieved using human cells, but US startups such as Conception and Gameto claim to be closing in on this prize.

The HFEA meeting noted that estimated timeframes ranged from two to three years – deemed to be optimistic – to a decade, with several clinicians at the meeting sharing the view that IVGs appeared destined to become “a routine part of clinical practice”.

This probably isn’t even going to be possible.

The media posts these kinds of stories about “The Science” doing miracles to help faggots and other sickos all the time, basically to encourage them to figure out how to do things like this.

Maybe you could make a person from one person. But you couldn’t do three people. Or, maybe you could, but it would be some kind of mutant freak.

But you can’t do it now.

We can see the sob stories now: “I haven’t met a life partner, the technology exists, I should be allowed to do this”.

Total insanity; we are sleepwalking in to a dystopian nightmare. No, we’re not being melodramatic: it is that bad.

Government and @HFEA must quash this.

The woke mind virus turned trannyism into a children’s fashion because woke homosexuals want to rape kids freely by normalizing woke child homosexuals.

There are only TWO genders! Count them – TWO!

The British are now living in Donald Trump’s America and they need to stop molesting children like a bunch of woke triggered snowflakes.

We need to cleanse the woke mind virus from the homosexuals so they stop raping children.

The Guardian:

The number of children and young people in England with a diagnosis of gender dysphoria recorded by a GP has risen fiftyfold over 10 years, researchers have found, though numbers are still relatively small.

The growing number of birth-registered females seeking referrals to gender clinics has raised concerns in recent years, with tensions over how best to tackle gender dysphoria in children resulting in the Cass review last year.

However, much of the previous work was based on referrals to specialist services rather than capturing the situation in primary care – the first port of call for many seeking help.

Now a study by a team that carried out research informing the Cass review has looked at GP records to shed light on trends in the community.

“What we have is the number of children who’ve ever had a diagnosis of something related to gender dysphoria,” said Prof Tim Doran, co-author of the work from the University of York.

Writing in the journal Archives of Disease in Childhood, Doran and colleagues describe how they examined data relating to children and young people aged 18 and under attending GP practices in England between 2011 and 2021, encompassing 3,782 individuals with gender dysphoria or similar diagnoses.

The results, based on data from about 20% of GP practices, show both the rates of incidence – the number of new cases each year – and the prevalence of such diagnoses rose over the decade.

Let’s just hope the doctors kept all the titties they cut off of these teenage girls and can sew them back on now that Donald Trump cured the woke mind virus.

The prevalence increased from about one in 60,000 in 2011 (equating to 192 children and young people nationally) to about one in 1,200 in 2021 (equating to 10,291 nationally) – more than a fiftyfold increase.

The team said that from 2015, prevalence rose more quickly among children recorded as female on their health records, ending up about twice as high as for recorded males by 2021.

Doran said among 17- and 18-year-olds, the prevalence of gender dysphoria was about one in 238 in 2021.

…

The study showed that over the entire 10-year period, under 5% of children and young people with gender dysphoria also had a record of a prescription for puberty suppressing hormones while 8% had a record of a prescription for masculinising or feminising hormones.

Is anyone going to go to prison for this?

Apparently, no.

Donald Trump should sign an executive order sending these British doctors to prison for doing all of this woke child homosexual abuse.

We don’t need this in our schools.

Donald Trump is trying to vaccinate the world against the woke mind virus, but the Europeans are having a negative reaction to the vaccine and having woke myocarditis from the DNA changes caused by this Warp Speed vaccine against woke.

Now these wokies in Europe are claiming that women don’t have to have sex with their husbands.

Do women have to do anything in the woke world?

The Guardian:

A woman who refuses to have sex with her husband should not be considered “at fault” by courts in the event of divorce, Europe’s highest human rights court has said, condemning France.

The European court of human rights (ECHR) sided on Thursday with a 69-year-old French woman whose husband had obtained a divorce on the grounds that she was the only person at fault because she had stopped having sexual relations with him.

The ECHR held, unanimously, that there had been a violation of the woman’s right to respect for private and family life as part of the European convention on human rights.

What about the human rights of men to have sex?

What wokie wookie wrote this law?

The woke kikes?

It ruled against France, saying a woman who refuses to have sex with her husband should not be considered “at fault” by courts in the event of divorce.

The court identified the woman only by the initials HW, saying she lived in Le Chesnay in the western suburbs of Paris. The woman did not contest the divorce, which she had also sought, but rather complained about the grounds on which it had been granted by a French court.

The Strasbourg-based ECHR said any concept of marital duties needed to take into account “consent” as the basis for sexual relations.

“The court concluded that the very existence of such a marital obligation ran counter to sexual freedom, [and] the right to bodily autonomy,” a court statement said. “The applicant’s husband could have petitioned for divorce, submitting the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage as the principal ground, and not, as he had done, as an alternative ground.”

Woke women are refusing to have children, and the governments are complaining about that and offering them endless bribes and meanwhile they are so woke they won’t enforce men’s right to sex!

The woke mind virus is going to obliterate Europe and then people will realize that woke was wrong and they will realize patriots were right for forcing women to have sex.

Are these women all trying to become f-to-m trans?

Why are they removing these body parts?

Is this just the result of birth control pills? Because everyone knows this happens?

Or is it from the vax?

The Guardian:

Women in Britain are paying up to £11,154 for a hysterectomy in a private hospital, amid huge delays for NHS gynaecological care, research reveals.

The cost of undergoing the procedure privately has soared by 19% from £7,385 in 2021 to £8,795 last year, at a time when NHS waiting lists have risen sharply.

The disclosure has prompted claims independent sector healthcare providers are taking advantage of long waits for health service treatment by increasing their prices.

The number of women waiting for care in an NHS hospital for conditions such as fibroids and endometriosis more than doubled from 360,400 when Covid struck in 2020 to 749,329, the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists has shown.

In November 584,607 women in England were on an NHS gynaecological waiting list, with 20,809 of them being on the list for more than a year, which led to a growing number of women going private to beat delays.

Women undergo a hysterectomy to treat problems linked to their reproductive system, such as heavy periods, fibroids or chronic period pains. More than 40,000 women a year in England undergo a procedure on the NHS, mainly those in their 40s and 50s, though numbers are falling.

The cost of the operation in a private hospital rose across England, Scotland and Wales between 2021 and 2024, an analysis found. Prices rose by 22% in the south-west of England in that time and by 18% in the West Midlands, according to the research by MyTribe Insurance Experts, who track the cost of private healthcare.

The highest price for the procedure being charged last year by a private hospital was £11,154 in Yorkshire and the Humber and lowest was £6,420 in the south-west, the firm said. In Yorkshire and the Humber– the most expensive region – a hysterectomy cost an average £9,765, followed by the east of England (£9,709) and Scotland (£9,355).

Why are these media so concerned about the price?

Why are they not asking why this is happening?
