The Massachusetts State Senate passed a bill that redefines parental language on birth certificates, replacing “mother” and “father” with terms like “person who gave birth” and “other parent.” Critics argue it undermines traditional family roles and rights.
This is part of a broader trend, as states like California and federal efforts aim to reshape language and parental rights regarding gender identity in schools. These changes stir considerable controversy and oppose established norms.

The Telegraph: Fact check: US Navy and British aircraft carriers rendered obsolete ... again
The U.S. recently tested Quicksink technology, a modification of a conventional bomb to target ships, highlighting ongoing debates about the relevance of aircraft carriers. While Quicksink can aid in sinking less-defended vessels, employing it against heavily armed carriers is another story entirely.
Aircraft carriers face criticism, especially Britain's, which lack essential capabilities like catapults, leading to high costs without commensurate strength. Ultimately, the efficacy of carriers in modern warfare is under scrutiny, raising questions about their role in defense strategy.
