The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

FatDon, legitimatizing the Taliban: 'I really believe the Taliban wants to do something to show that we're not all wasting time."

Fast forward to today:

"A Taliban edict issued this month will shutter some 3,000 women-run salons in Kabul.Just as important, they were one of the last places where women and girls could congregate. Girls are banned from school beyond the sixth grade. Women are excluded from most professions outside of teaching and health care. They are not allowed to go to parks, once a popular pastime for families."

Evangelists in the US promoting the return of 2nd class status for women, 'canary in the coalmine' Taliban actually re-instituting it.
