These people also never consider that they're measuring the wrong thing. If they're taking the position that the effects of testosterone from birth in trans M-to-F kids gives them an unfair advantage due to bone density and muscle mass, then they're failing to take into account that there are a number of natural health conditions that produce elevated testosterone levels in women as well.

I'm not saying this to be funny, but women with stubble especially around the chin often have elevated T levels, often due to PCOS. There truly are some women who are "built like a man" and they're not trans - at least certainly not in the way we use the term today. They're natural, their bodies just work differently.

Banning trans kids isn't going to level the playing field in the way they say they want to. Measuring things that testosterone affects like bone density would.

If you punch someone on the nose, you can't expect sympathy when they punch back. This isn't going to produce the result Hamas was going for.

They're not unemployed or underemployed by any common definition of those words. If California wants to support striking workers, great, but it shouldn't be under these programs.

And realistically there's no reason why this isn't a Union problem to solve instead of a government one. Dues are paid for a reason.

yes the whole nation is in jeopardy because some warmongers arent getting their promotions

The whole nation is in jeopardy because these leadership positions are being held open until Trump is reelected in a rework of the Merrick Garland SC nomination. Which should be terrifying. Jan 6 failed in part because some of the military top brass (Miley) put oath before Trump.

Read up on Project 2025 if you haven't. These "unconnected events" are anything but. It's a strategy.

That's a lot of words to be wrong, friend-o.

Saying "Are you sure you don't want to revise your testimony, because we have factual evidence that it's false and that may lead to an indictment for perjury." isn't extortion, it's allowing this guy to not loyalty his way into a felony.

Imagine, the police/prosecution use their discretion and don't throw the book at someone and idiots still take exception to it

Disney v. Florida GOP is the best example of the enemy of my enemy since probably WW2

Yes. If it's a workplace injury, OSHA has the authority to come in and dictate mitigation measures.

Clearly this isn't true.

I mean this in the least condescending way possible, but you don't understand how American politics works.

The absolute best scenario for Democrats is for the Republicans to split their ticket between Trump and DeSantis - or anyone else, but there doesn't seem to be anyone else thus far with his pull on the national stage.

It'll be Clinton-Bush-Perot but in reverse.

If Congress lacks the authority to regulate the Supreme Court, then certainly they also lack the authority to fund the Supreme Court...

I was more meaning wanting the admins to fuck around with the communities a la /u/spez.

How quickly we want to become Reddit I guess.

RIF should be a case study in UX/UI design: it's user satisfaction (and really addiction) were a direct result to the ease of use of the interface and the speed with which you could consume content.

I fucking miss RIF already, and it's not been 24 hours yet. When's the last time you felt this way about an app?
