This particular criticism rings hollow.

My partner and I are quarreling right now, so that guy getting it in the nuts was honestly kind of awesome for me. Also, I’m going to make a huge generalization here and say that he deserved it, based on the fact that the first thing he did was blame someone else for giving it to him upside down.

Gender reveals are so cringe. The only thing worse is those “I’m pregnant” pranks where the husband is disappointed and angry. I’ve become heterophobic as a result.

i should note: i received explicit permission from the owner of this butt to post this butt photo.

It rained during the test, so none were taken.

I had metastatic testicular cancer about 10 years ago, which resulted in a surgical scar from my pelvis to my sternum. I beat the cancer, and contemplated a decoration for a couple years. For some reason, a working lunch turned down this road, and I told my boss at the time that I was going to get an alien tattooed,…

Units are hard.

The spinning tubes (Flettner Rotors) work using the Magnus Effect, which is a practical application of the Bernoulli Principle. A low pressure zone is created on the side of the spinning cylinder that the Magnus Force is present, resulting in a small amount of “free thrust” for a shipping vessel.

Not a stupid question, but the answer is that you don’t sail it where there is no wind. It will mostly be sailing the North Atlantic, which is not known for lack of wind, on top of that you have weather satellites, onboard weather monitoring computers and probably other clever gadgets which will let you know where the…

Oh now you’re just trolling.

And as I said, it’s been nearly a decade with that particular rule in place- more than enough time for a systemic issue to become clear, if it was going to.

I’m not gonna pull this lazy response out of the grays, because it continues beyond this snip to basically conflate trans women and men in terms of athletic performance. What I will say is that they’re making claims about things like bone length and hormones that are either totally unproven (in the case of bone…

The NCAA changed to only requiring hormones and T blockers in 2011, and the predicted deluge of trans women champions has as of yet failed to materialize. At this point, it seems like folks who claim that there are “unanswered questions” or that trans women have innate advantages are, at best, ignorant, if not…

Yes, after a reasonable amount of time on T blockers and hormones. That’s what orgs like the IOC and the NCAA have concluded, and they have the resources and the motivation to get it right.

as their prnouns are listed on istagram as “they/them” and doesn’t include she/her, it would not be okay to use she/her

I’m in my mid-30's but I’ve seen older barefoot runners (I should be clear I don’t barefoot run, cause gross, nor do I wear those awful toed shoes, cause ugly, but I do wear lighter shoes). And like, Kamala’s making the choice to wear these shoes. It’s not like she’s wearing heels because it’s expected by society or…

You only need strong arch support if you have high arches. Look at people who do barefoot running, for example, or humans in pre-history who walked/jogged miles with bare feet.
