No. We can’t. Not while things like this are happening. Your privileged, white, Boomer ass doesn’t get a say in that.

It says Lost City of Atlantis, but it makes me want to play Crimson Skies...

You think wrong on both counts, but okay...

It’s so good that this is only just barely into the temperature range that might kill COVID-19 after an hour or so of exposure. That will make it so useful in sterilizing the police cars, and won’t at all be used to abuse (and eventually kill) suspects (bet you a dollar they won’t be white) in the vehicle while the…

I was wondering more from the perspective of gearing and ergonomics for applying power to the pedals more efficiently. Cruisers aren’t really designed for high speeds, or being pedaled hard...

Yeah but I’m all for mad science, so I’m curious how well they could charge it, too...

I wonder how much more efficient it could’ve been, if they’d used the team’s normal bikes, instead of cruisers...

Be careful about buying a used R/C car. There are LOTS of 1/18 ones available on the market, but not all of them are current product - which means when you snap a control arm (which you will) or blow a shock (which you will), you aren’t going to be able to replace it cheap. Also, if you’re going with the smaller sizes…

I agree that things are likely to change some (though not much in the next decade or more), but when it comes down to it there’s a huge risk in these discussions only happening when it’s someone famous. Caitlyn does set the precedent, and I think what some of us have discussed in this thread are solid suggestions on…

Don’t care if you find it problematic, it’s the truth. You’re cis, so you don’t have a frame of reference for that, but that doesn’t change the truth.

And the current best practice is what I linked to the description of, which says you note that the use of the name Bruce is outdated, and refer to her by her proper name and pronouns. Seeing as society tends towards progress and respect, I don’t think you’re likely to see that change back to the old way.

I honestly didn’t know there were as many trans Jalops as there are, before this thread! I’ve only really seen Miss Mercedes and myself mention it much in comments. Glad to see I don’t shit on the heads of the willfully ignorant in vain. It sounds like you’ve had a really shitty go of things; sorry to hear that! Keep…

When what you say devalues, dehumanizes, or in other ways tramples on a marginalized group? You’re god damn right I’ll stand up and say “how dare you” every single time. No cis person can tell me how it feels to be deadnamed, and no cis person has a right to dictate what name and pronouns are used, ESPECIALLY when…

Yeah I’ve fired my final salvo at him. He can go live his bitchy little bigoted life without my interaction from here on. I love that he decided me pointing out he was being the same kind of douche that dismisses POC when they get offended at a white person using the N word, meant that I feel my struggles are the same…

I would never compare the struggles of transgender people to those of people who were forcibly kindapped and enslaved, and spend a couple centuries under the boot heel of systemic oppression. I was comparing your level of douchebaggery to that used by people who would casually dismiss POC for saying the n word…

Exactly. All of the components used to build a modern game are GenX’s core, and GenX and the Millenials have used them to do things that the Boomers never imagined, in their wildest dreams.

Since we’re linking comments from elsewhere, it’s shorter than typing out what someone else typed up well enough: https://jalopnik.com/1843642451

Would you say the same to a person of color, after they called you on on telling them that not dropping N bombs is wrong for a white person to do?

The person who got out of the winning car on March 22, 1986 was Caitlyn Jenner, living in disguise, in a world in which her gender identity would not have been accepted. How anyone knew her back then was merely that - a disguise.

As a trans woman, and former competitive 800m runner, I’d be cool with that method.
