The point of the women's leagues is so they don't have to compete against men because women are biologically unable to compete at the same high level as men

So you acknowledge the different leagues are there because of physical constraints...

The point isn't the biology though since the current thing is to let anyone who identifies as woman compete against women

But now think the leagues are all about self identification? What the fuck are you talking about?

As far as I know, self identification for different leagues has only been for children playing sports. And that's because we don't want genital inspections for children to play sports.

Quinn identifies as non-binary (they/them). So while they don't identify as a women, physically they have the same body as "a biological woman".

MtF players are a different situation, because they frequently go through HRT. The body changes drastically because of the new hormones and a lot of strength is lost.

If Quinn was FtM and going through HRT, then this would also be a different situation. Their body would change drastically and gain a lot of strength. But this isn't the case.

So the operator box caught fire while the operator was in there? Luckily he got out but holy fuck that would be scary.

I could never do that job. Its not just the fear of heights. Its the fear of any of the catastrophic failures that could happen.

I really think I have undiagnosed ADHD. Tried getting diagnosed and spent 8 months going from a therapist, to a psychiatrist, and finally an ADHD specialist.

He met with me once, gave me a reaction time test, and asked me what I do for a living. Apparently engineers who have good reaction times are not likely to have ADHD. So.. yay, I'm cured.

Maybe 8 years ago I was paired with this really quiet dude for a group project. It was for statics engineering. We had to create a poster board with force diagrams on cars, bridges, buildings, etc. We needed to create a bunch of drawings and discussed how to create them. This dude just quietly said "I can use paint" and started clicking away.

He opens paint while no one is really paying attention to him. Within 2 minutes, the first drawing was done. We all were confused so we started to watch him work. He was flying through the whole project. He would copy sections, move them slightly over, draw a couple lines, and have immaculate 3D pictures. He single handedly created all our diagrams in 30 minutes. Our group of 5 got an A on the project.

To this day, I still use paint doing some of the tricks I learned watching him work.

Private property laws are a government-enforced (i.e. publicly-mandated) style of ownership.

Fure sure, there are many shades of grey to be had here, but Elon Musk owning Twitter is the ultimate form of communism.

I like to sort by top of the hour. Gives you recent posts that you can still engage with but is more filtered than "new".

Absurd news stories get more clicks, so the news is getting more absurd. Recently, things have legitimately seemed a bit more fucked up. I think some politicians, like MTG, recognize the more outlandish they are, the more coverage they get.

While politics is everywhere and hard to miss, I dont have many conversations in real life about it. People seem to never really talk about it directly. You'll get side comments or people alluding to the most recent thing, but thats about it.

"Clear as mud?"

Normally said after I tried to explain something and I'm only getting a blank stare in response. Or after a meeting when I know everyone is confused.

Stability is the bigger difference.

I was really into Overwatch when it started. When I got into Master/Grandmaster, every tiny lag spike would happen at the worst time. It convinced me to run a 250' cable throughout our house lol.

I've gone from every day smoking to nothing multiple times. Never had trouble getting to sleep. But I did have wildy fucked up and vivid dreams.

I have no idea what the meaning behind that is. But if my only withdraw symptoms are "vivid dreams", is it really that bad? In the grand scheme of drug withdrawals, that's super mild.
