Ah, yes, you’re right… you’re the centrist who blames progressives for defending trans rights, not the one pretending Hawley was confused. My mistake.

I actually agree with your views a lot more than you think and personally my views are very progressive but…

The fact that you don’t see this is the very reason progressives can’t get people on board with their ideas and why the populist right is going to keep winning elections.

Josh Hawley is the one asking the questions, he’s going to get a soundbite either way. The fact that you give Hawley credit for being “confused” about trans-inclusive language, though, and mischaracterizing Ms. Bridges’ as “accusing [Hawley] of causing trans people to commit suicide because he was confused,” tells me…

Right, I was actually thinking of the Patriots season when I wrote my comment (although theirs didn’t end with an 84-0 loss).

The M2 MacBook Air only supports one external monitor officially, but so did the M1 MacBook Air, and that computer can actually support up to three external monitors by using a multiport hub.

Alphabetized? To each their own, I guess. I sort by category (which the iPhone’s App Libray function does automatically), but if I had to find a specific app by its name, I’d just start typing in the search field on the home screen, which I guarantee is faster than you scrolling through alphabetized icons.

True grammar nerds have no problem with Think Different, because we know that “different” is a substantive adjective acting as an object complement.

It’s not a complete solution if it only works “sometimes”.
