I think the closest you could get on there not being an advantage would possibly be a trans woman athlete who was on blockers, and started hormone therapy very soon after. Whatever sex was assigned, if for most of your physical development you’ve had testosterone at a level in line with female ranges - even if it’s at…

Testosterone is strongly linked to athletic performance, but someone’s assigned sex at birth in and of itself is not

Instead, send those well wishes

I’d love to see a non-binary class that anyone could opt in to, because I do support trans athletes being able to compete, just in the correct class. By class I mean you wouldn’t allow a flyweight in boxing to fight a heavyweight, even if they were equally skilled in technique, trained at the same level, etc. The…

The bulk of my empathy and sympathy here 100% goes to Hough, but I also just want to make it clear that the bulk of my judgment goes towards Kenneth Petty.

You summed that up perfectly. It’s why even though I want to see her held responsible for any harassment she helped perpetuate, I think her repeated support of sex offenders - her husband, her brother, Troll69 - has deeper roots. She may also genuinely be a shitty person, but I can’t shake the feeling that some of it…

As much sense as a Trump supporter can have, I think Herman Cain had enough to know he was highly susceptible. Not sure if I’d go all the way to calling it suicide by clown, but he knew he was at risk.

Hough’s allegations about Nicki’s behavior seem credible. If she’s able to substantiate them, I truly hope she gets 10 times the summary judgment she was seeking.

Surprisingly, Kavanaugh took the exact same line of questioning to the Texas AG. Essentially, if they apply this law to women having abortions outside of narrow parameters, what stops another state from applying it to people seeking guns outside of narrow parameters.

Even if they didn’t get approval I don’t know that there’s a case here. Trademarks and copyrights are generally to protect against commercial infringements. If they printed up fan merch with AKA and insignias on it, that would be clear cut, but when included as part of character development or commentary and not the…

I’m Black and Asian, as are Dave’s children. When he joked about Black people fighting Asian people and compared it with his body fighting off COVID I simultaneously understood why Asian people could be offended at being compared to COVID, but also that Dave was not encouraging Black people to beat up people who look…

Everything you are doing is pushing her farther away.

I bit. I did watch it and really do wish more of the people commenting would.

I grew up in Chicago so he’s been off my playlists. If it makes you feel any better though, he has outstanding child support and I can’t imagine not getting at least one substantial civil judgment against him, He won’t be able to plead poverty for any of them if he still has income, so the money won’t necessarily stay…

I doubt if he’s 100% owner of his catalog, and I do remember reading something saying that his label would probably try to sell whatever share they own at a fire sale price if he were convicted. Best thing at this point would be for someone to purchase his catalog and set up a fund with proceeds given to his victims.

Thanks for clearing that up. Lindsay Lohan was recognizable, but I seriously couldn’t narrow Del Rey down beyond “probably not the Black girl in the picture.”

If the machine learning project ever makes it to Kaggle I’m all in. If you can get to the point where you can outline a plot from the title, I’m sure some GPT-3 writer could take over and crank out enough scripts for you to sell off and retire on (in a small town, of course).

I have PCOS, and have found a rather lengthy combination of vitamins and supplements that work well for me in managing symptoms. So I am pro-supplement and believe that they do fill gaps for things big pharma doesn’t find profitable enough to research (like PCOS and probably a slew of other things primarily affecting…

She actually did opine about how much she respects Candace Owens in another clip, so that should tell you everything.

In a perfect world, Sage Steele would find herself unemployed in a red state that has fought tooth and nail against extending unemployment benefits or financial assistance due to COVID.
