In this episode of A Special Place In Hell, the girls/women lose their sh*t over Jon Stewart’s latest virtue signal flare from the ideological bunker in which he appears to be held captive. It’s especially egregious considering a new Reuters story that, for the first time, lays out actual numbers about how many kids are being medicalized for gender dysphoria, including getting invasive surgeries. But before that, they discuss Meghan’s New York Times interview with a “conservative therapist” that made a splash last week. What is a “conservative therapist” anyway? And why do so many self-identified mental health professionals on Twitter seem so invested on keeping people feeling mentally fragile? Finally, the hostesses address problem of information overload and the way it makes smart people feel stupid and (perhaps?) stupid people sound smarter than they are.In the bonus content for paying subscribers only, Sarah explains the definition of “body count,” which Meghan thought had to do with killing people.
