The enhanced documentation is because of Real ID.

That’s not how it works. Google “herd immunity.” 

Read for content, dumbass. Mack was assigned female at birth and then transitioned to male. The state of Texas won’t let him compete as a boy, so he continues to wrestle in the girls’ division. You’ve got it completely backwards. 

So since they’re women “by social construct”, then they should compete with women. 

I heard this when the radio came on this morning and I was half asleep and it took me a minute to understand it wasn’t *that* Eric Holder. 

Trans women are women.

You do not know how you would feel in a situation until it happens to you, first, and secondly, I can definitely judge people who like some kinds of comedy and it’s okay. 

Thailand has very strict drug laws, and the ketamine wasn’t being administered by a doctor. It’s unlikely the authorities really care, but the rescuers wanted to play it close to the vest until the foreign rescue personnel were out of the country.

Because our best current estimates indicate that only .6% of people are transgender. Lots of people have biological advantages over others, and there isn’t compelling evidence that letting trans athletes compete disadvantages cis athletes. 

I was just thinking that; think about the doctors who went there and came up with that sedation plan, and the people who performed the rescue, and all the support staff and then Musk had to go and make it all about himself. What a worthless piece of shit. 

Her letter to Suppiluliuma is maybe my favorite ancient historical document. 

Get well soon, Britney. 

Intent does not matter. Firstly, intent doesn’t change the way the recipient perceives an action in the moment. Secondly, “I didn’t meeeeeeaaaannnn it that way!” only serves to center the discussion on the fucker-upper, rather than the recipient. Saying his intent was not malicious is completely beside the point.…

Yeah, exactly. Is the girl who comes in second to the trans kid never going to be recruited as a result, or have other opportunities to succeed? Of course not. Are there trans athletes, both kids and adults, who want to play and compete and aren’t welcome to? Absolutely there are, and that’s the greater wrong IMHO.

Sure, you can have questions or feel cheated if you want, but life isn’t fair. Some people are going to be better at a sport than others. Some of those people who are better might be trans. Such is life.

A+ Kinja name. 

That’s really patronizing, though. You’re essentially saying, “Why can’t she be happy in the specific manner I want her to be happy?” and that’s not something you get to decide for her. If you love her and want her to be happy, accept her the way she is and let her decide for herself what makes her happy. 

It is the Nancy Pelosi State of the Union clap of batflips. 

I had moved to a new city while I was pregnant, and I knew no one with kids. It worked out okay for me but I met everyone beforehand and ended up using a co-worker’s mom (who honestly saved me from so much terrible new mom shit). 

For horses, there really isn’t. It sucks but horse anatomy is such that they can’t take the weight off a fractured limb long enough for it to heal, even if it’s splinted or casted.
