[Breitbart] Get Woke, go broke Good Planet Fitness’s stock dropped after the company directed women to share restrooms with male customers and told employees to use pro-transgender language.
The gym’s stock dropped after it was pointed out on Friday that “Planet Fitness requires women to share bathrooms with men and to refer to men as whatever name and pronouns they want” and that the fitness company is also compelling its employees to speak in the way transgender customers demand.
“Some members may feel uncomfortable with a transgender member using the same locker room facilities, bathrooms, showers, or other facilities/programs separated by sex. This discomfort is not a reason to deny access to the transgender member,” read a Planet Fitness operational manual that was posted to social media.
“Planet Fitness staff should work with members and employees to address the discomfort and to foster a climate of understanding consistent with the Judgement Free character of Planet Fitness,” the operational manual continued.
The manual demanded, “Planet Fitness staff shall strive to address transgender members with names, titles, pronouns, and other terms consistent with their self-reported gender identity, if reasonably known to the Planet Fitness staff.”
“Planet Fitness reserves the right to terminate a person’s membership immediately for any violation of this policy,” the manual added.
Notably, PLNT stock dropped eight percent after the company’s operational manual went viral on social media.

[GEO.TV] Dubai’s police have arrested a woman, belonging to Asia, for begging, Gulf News reported, but what stood out about her was the use of witchcraft.
Upon apprehension, the police recovered witchcraft talismans from the woman. The authorities believe the woman used this craft to influence the people she took money from.
Brig Ali Salem Al Shamsi, director of suspects and criminal phenomena department at the Dubai Police, said: "The beggar was arrested in a residential area, and the police found in her possession 'papers, tools, witchcraft talismans, and magic veils', which she uses while begging. She believes that they help her influence people to give her the money she wants."
Khaleej Times reported that the woman was arrested after a resident complained to the police's Command and Control Centre.
The police official urged the public to refrain from showing sympathy to beggars and asked them to stay alert and not fall prey to their schemes. He added that the beggars manipulate people more during Ramadan.
Dubai police had last week apprehended a man as he was wearing an abaya, clothing Moslem women use to cover themselves, and begging near a mosque.
The young man, whom the police arrested, said he chose to wear an abaya as women beggars are often given more sympathy compare to male counterparts.

[Gateway] The climate alarmist cult is in planetary disarray, with their once-unquestionable ’scientific theories’ and ’environmental policies’ getting rejected at a rapid pace in many parts of the world.
European farmers and Canadian Provincial Premiers and conservatives everywhere in the western world are getting increasingly vocal about the shortcomings of the so-called ’Green New Deal’.
In this context, it’s reassuring to see some measure of pushback from people who have real skin in the game, like Big Oil moguls.
The world’s biggest oil producer is the Saudi company Aramco. Its CEO, Amin Nasser, just came out yesterday (18) and said that the energy transition envisioned by the ’global warming’ crowd is failing.
He went ahead and in a rare show of honesty, advised that policymakers should abandon the ’fantasy’ (ouch!) of phasing out oil and gas, as he is sure demand for fossil fuels is expected to continue to grow in the coming years.
[GEO.TV] A primary schoolteacher was rubbed out by some bandidos in Sindh’s kacha areas (riverine belt) of Kandhkot-Kashmore, where the dacoits continue to reign despite several efforts aimed at eliminating them.
The teacher, Allah Rakhiyo Nandwani, was attacked on his way back home from a cluster primary school in Nasrullah Khan Bijarani, which is known as a no-go area due to the presence of dacoits, on Monday (March 18).
The dacoits reportedly stopped him as he rode his cycle of violence and fled after shooting him dead.
The gruesome incident comes days after a video of Nandwani going to the school went viral on social media. The short video clip showed the schoolteacher carrying a rifle for his safety while navigating from his residence to the school and back.
"I go to the school [to teach] for the sake of students’ future. Police and education department have been telling me that I can’t go there (no-go area), but doing this would harm the future of children. I am protecting myself," he said as he showed the gun he carried in the video.
Defiant of the bandit-rule, Nandwani vowed to attend his duties as schoolteacher regularly to serve the students.
In the video, the slain teacher's own son was seen sitting behind him on the cycle of violence, who apparently studies in the same school.
According to the local police, gunniesshot up Nandwani near Mandani check-post.
Sindh Home Minister Zia Lanjar took notice of the incident and sought a report from Larkana Deputy Inspector General of Police Nasir Aftab in two days.
With the latest incident, it seems like police are unable to control the situation as entire district Kashmore is reportedly been under the rule of dacoits.
It may be noted that the dacoits of kacha areas in Kandhkot-Kashmore have kidnapped over 400 people in the past one year.
Despite big claims and over 250 operations by the Sindh Police, the kacha area dacoits apparently have been operating freely.
The police reportedly do not have modern weapons and equipment, except for the armoured vehicles but even these vehicles cannot go deep into the kacha areas due to wild bushes and sand. The could only reach the areas housing elements facilitating the dacoits but not the areas where their hideouts are.
[7ISREAL] The US Air Force said on Tuesday it had conducted a successful test of an air-launched hypersonic weapon in the Pacific Ocean, Reuters reported.
The test was conducted on Sunday after a B-52 bomber left the island of Guam carrying an Air-launched Rapid Response Weapon (ARRW), the Air Force said in a statement.
It called the test a success, but did not disclose the speed the weapon flew. In past tests the ARRW has flown at least five times the speed of sound.
The test comes as other countries have used hypersonic missiles as well.
US officials have said that Russia has fired hypersonic missiles at targets in Ukraine and China has tested hypersonic weapons, a charge denied by China's foreign ministry.
