Can you show evidence of that? Every summation and analysis I have read is that the case surrounded a series of texts, not work behavior. That would be a fundamentally different situation then is being discussed.

People say that, but I thought it was pretty clear in a nudge nudge way that Dumbledore and Grindelwald were deeply in love in a teenage way. I picked it up while reading, and wasn't surprised when that info was "revealed"

This is amazing and makes me happy, even as the film itself is making me sad.

That would have to be answered by a constitutional law expert. But Nixon got a blanket pardon, which would not be possible for Trump now, ergo while further offenses that are revealed could be subject to pardon, they would have to beon  a tedious case by case effort.

Look, I understand your concerns. Given the fact that Trump won the electoral college in the first place was so against conventional wisdom; that it’s understandable to expect the worst.

Saying there’s more than two of something doesn’t make that designation illegitimate or mutable/changeable. Again, I understand the skepticism about people who push back at all against the world as you wish it were. All I’m saying is the world doesn’t always respond to what you think it should be just because that way

Richard Nixon was a bastard, but he was also a smart guy. He understood that by resigning before congress would impeach him, he could set himself up for a pardon (which is exactly how events transpired).

I can’t be happy about impeachment. I just can’t.

I don’t presume to educate you. Your position is fundamentally a philosophical one, which I don’t have a problem with. I think I get. When science is reductive or restrictive (or if it can even be reasonably perceived to be so), it can be misused by people who wish to confine or oppress. Nobody likes science more than

lol joining the ol “burn my nikes” crew?

This is getting into semantics and pedantry, both of which (unfortunately) are right in my wheelhouse, but “physical sex” isn’t really a thing. Biological sex is (It is not as simple as XX/XY, but it is a thing). There are physical and physiological manifestations/indications of your biological sex, but those things

Considering my first line expressed ignorance about this case and these types of firings arent uncommon you couldve just assumed I was speaking generally. And not my opinion on this case. These firings (Justified or not) dont create discourse for WHY it happens with anyone beyond progressive bubbles. People talk about

I don’t know if it’s a “both sides are wrong dynamic or not,” but biological sex is a thing. And that thing is immutable. Now, there are any number of options for a person who identifies as transgender to alter their body chemistry and physiology if they wish to do so. This is what we used to call a “sex change” but

You are so brave. They're fucking books. get over it.

I have no real sides in this fight, so I dont have any incentives to be unfair. I do think there is incentives to blending these two discussions and its hurting the people in the middle. Namely the social conservatives like saying gender=sex and since sex is immutable so is gender which is wrong. However many people

Thanks for linking the Guardian review, it is simply brilliant.

You’re reading your own views into my words, I am not saying both sides are wrong. I am saying the terms of the debate are cloudy.

This is the context a woman was fired from her job for tweeting a woman or man cannot change their sex. A judge then upheld the firing claiming her views were “Absolutist”. Here is where I think the discussion is getting a little outlandish. There is two concepts, “sex” and “gender” which while related I would argue

I need to read up on this story to have a better idea of what happened. Was Forstater harassing coworkers with her view or stating them from a work account? Im always iffy about this kind of shit. People have a right to their opinion even if its backwards. And employers can fire people often as they see fit and
