I've come to see this issues in a particular way, but I don't mean in any way to invalidate anyone's feelings or identity, let that be clear.
Transness is defined by the transphobes the same as race is defined by the racist, in a world without transphobia we would not think of trans/cis people, just people.
I'll explain through a personal example. I myself am more or less in the same boat as you (tho I'm amab and usually viewed universally as a man specially up close), but I haven't suffered the same discrimination as trans people ever. Damn I use the women bathrooms a lot of times and no one has given me any shit. With race is the same, my sister and I have the same parents (and therefore same genetic ancestry) but she's dark skinned and I can get sunburnt in January, her hair's black/dark brown and mine's dark blonde, her curls are more kinky than mine, and her nose is flat and mine pointy. When stopped by the police they asked her for 'her papers' and me my id card. I've never got racist comments from teachers, been followed in a store, or asked to pay in a bar before being served while the other (white) people weren't. She has.
So I am not trans or racialized, because I don't share the struggle of trans and racialized people. It can even depend on the context, I think. In some place and time (or any other million factors) I can consider a person trans (or racialized) while I wouldn't if they were in a different context.
Math's off. You would move 116 m at 83 m/s, but since you are decelerating (accelerating in the opposite direction of your velocity really) it would be half of that, wouldn't it (honest question I'm already in bed and quite sleepy so my math can be off too)?
Lol 3.5 years! The damage done in just these three months would take decades to fix. I think it's very likely that America will never recover from four years of Trump.

Yeah that's why Christian's don't do animal sacrifices, but the Ten Commandments are still valid, are they not? So is the rest of god's magic book, a book that 'Christians' tend to not follow when they don't feel like it.
Not a Christian btw, just pointing out the hypocrisy of saying you have the word of god written and the don't even RTFM.
'Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.' Jesus F. Christ
The concept of a smart ring shouldn't be patentable, and maybe it isn't im not sure. IP laws are really broken, all laws are but I think IP even more so.
Wanna know why you don't see any pigs breaking these protests? Because these are land owners. They are protesting environmental laws, asking for (even more) handouts, and taxes and fuel prices reductions (for them, not for everyone) all of this supported by the Russia funded far-right party. The irony is so dense you could stick a magnet: they ask for money because of the droughts, or any other extreme weather event and without skipping a beat demand to 'relax' the regulations.
So an n-dash? Which is arguably indistinguishable from a hyphen unless you put them together, so most people just use hyphens. Or another dash-like character in between?
I mean to each their own, if you like it you like it. I'm not saying your way is bad or worse, I'm just a nerd who also likes to use punctuation in a peculiar and personal way. Just to be clear that this is a light-hearted conversation and not a 'yOu aRE WroNg!' kinda thing. :)
It's just a matter of taste I guess. But now I've given it a thought and I honestly don't get it, you want to replace the apostrophe because it has two uses (three if you count that some people like myself use it as quotes as well) with the hyphen that has many more uses like compound words, prefixes, ranges, dates, divided words at the end of a line...
Fucking love it! I've always found the 'it's not a choice' a weak argument. What if it were? If there exists someone who can turn gay (or bi, ace, straight.. whatever) at will wouldn't they deserve the same respect and rights whatever they choose?
Well—2024, 2025—it does seem that there've been fewer shootings. But I can only average the 2024 total against two months, it's possible that January and February are just slower months. Maybe some people don't have money for bullets or even had to sell their guns to buy eggs for breakfast. Also the news and media are completely overloaded with Trump's (and company) bullshit 24/7.
My hair likes some Garnier conditioners and masks. I thought Aussie was, well, Australian but it seems that's part of pg so... And I've been using a solid shampoo that's great but I threw the wrapper many months ago and I can't remember the brand.
