To be fair she said artists, it’s still not a true statement, but a bit less pretentious  than if she had claimed it was only actors who achieved that.

I’m not disagreeing with the sentiment that the people he is competing against are getting screwed, but come on, “likely all she will have in her life is the win in high school”? Let’s not cheapen the value of these girls lives to assume that their peak is in a stinky gym before they turn 18.

This is operating off of the idea that people are just deciding to be trans. A person is trans because that is who they are, not to win a high school state title.

Ugh, I didn’t realize that’s how they are handling it in the NCAA too. If anything in a sport who’s top level is the college level and is losing participants every year you would think they would put a little more nuance on it than they do with sports that feed into pro leagues.

With all the extra shit the female on my wrestling team in high school went through by being surrounded by ignorant teenage dudes, I can’t imagine what this kid has to deal with. Between the unhealthy weight management strategies and being a sport that isn’t friendly to ever not going all out 100% of the time…

That’s the point, he doesn’t want to wrestle girls, girls don’t want to wrestle him, and the UIL is saying that the situation created by their rules that require him to wrestle as a girl and upsets everyone except the UIL isn’t their problem.

I always here triage is why the emergency room takes so long, but every time I or my accident prone family ends up in the hospital we sit at least three hours waiting to even get into triage, with at least 20 minutes in between people being assessed. Is this just proof my local hospital is crap or is there another…

Counterpoint: no one cares to watch the pitcher and catcher take a break and play catch for a couple minutes during what is usually the most exciting point of the game.

I will never understand why they got rid of Marshall before Cutler. A team with Marshall and no QB somehow seems like it would have been more appealing to an FA last year than having an offense led by Cutler would be.

It’s existed in pretty much all competitions. Most people don’t make it to pro level anything without having that almost unhealthy need to crush opponents and revel in it.

Yeah. I’m unfamiliar but interested about professional esports, and this is why it’s hard to get into. 90% of articles are just a bunch of names I don’t know, I had to Google dreamhack masters to figure out what this article is even about.

No, I believe the way to get the most votes is to find out what most people want. I’m confused why someone would prefer a political elite to hand down a message and not be concerned with what is most important to a largely varied constituency.

You seem to be thinking that policy is static enough that you don’t need to adjust strategy during a campaign, and I’m the naval gazing moron? You should volunteer for political movements you believe in, it’s a wonderful way to learn how the political process actually works.

He wasn’t a savior, he’s a politician. I don’t necessarily believe he would have won, or even done as well. I do believe that this election had much less “feel out the people and build a strategy from there” than the previous two elections I volunteered, and that is a bad look for the party. Thats how a party stops…

It’s nice to see Wasserman-Schultz’s incompetence recognized. I help stump for Dems locally, and talking with fellow 30+ year old volunteers in the days after the election I kept being talked down too if I mentioned the flaw in writing off the candidate that drew bigger and more excited crowds. No one noticed that…

I know it’s a far different sport, but in wrestling when a guy charges in trying to get in an over/under battle (trying to hook arms in a manner to gain leverage) we called it a gorilla charge because with shoulders back and body weight low you look kind of like a Silverback losing his shit. Reading the quote the…

Another example of journalists that think people pay attention to sports as an auxiliary to their writing and not the other way around.

On Stevie Wonders talk about an announcement later this year, is he playing along or ready to admit the truth?

Worth noting is that none of the actually under-reported Christian terror attacks/attempts are on his list. Also every person is listed with their nationality, except for the people labeled “Saudi based” and no body from Saudi Arabia commited any acts of terror, are they really putting that little effort into hiding…
