e now I know I am human and very killable. I still got a motorcycle, but I had a healthy respect for my limits as well as the dangers involved by the time I was 25.

Some people’s frontal lobes never reach maturity, it just evolves into fetishes like impregnating Mars after dumping Earth.

Not any more ridiculous than voting for trump because of the price of eggs:D

Nah. They made it to force a fake alternative reality for their supporters. Now they can start to hate DEI any non-white-male worker in their normal life!!! Yay!!!

FTFY

besides infuriating, an appellate judge appealing is a pretty hilarious thing. I expect them to be pretty good at it.

there’s one advantage to Project 2025 being published. It catalogs the stuff for this year to undo, once (if ever) republicans get booted.

For the first time ever, I’ve added my pronouns in rainbow color.

…and kids, that’s how you get worms in your brain. (undercooked wild meat)

or that they are too afraid to voice their anti maga viewpoints

n widely recommended in the

yup the evidence on the TB vaccine had been pretty iffy and many argued that lowered TB exposure and infection rates were due to better population nutrition and improved air quality. That said, most other countries still use BCG in the world.

this one gets it. This is exactly how Viktor Orban’s system works.

Well, in this case you support the side that will fuck it up even more for Palestinians. But you know, at least we all can “enjoy” your moral superiority.

Yup. if they are same on this issue, people should have had the 95 other aspects where they are different. But again to quote another Lemmy user, “You won’t reason someone out of a viewpoint they’ve never reasoned themselves into in the first place”

And it’s incidentally the closest ASCII character to a swastika

Did you read the article?

Your point is taken poorly because you raise issue with people giving deservedly nonsensical interpretations to a nonsensical definition, while giving a pass on WH calling their definition an “incontrovertible biological truth”.

winning what? debates? you mean reasoning with a pigeon?

And he doesn’t get convicted and he’ll campaign on how nasty the Dems are. An impeachment without conviction is a “win”.

The WH accidentally invented Schrödinger’s Sex.

Of course it’s also wrong because unlike dead/alive sex is a bimodally distributed continuum we binarize for simplicity. Also, don’t look up the Schrödinger dude’s sexual preferences because you’ll puke. But that stays on brand too.

Can you point me to the part of the text where they provide clarification from a biological standpoint? This language sets up the interpretation: “the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female […] grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality”. So if this is an “incontrovertible reality” then why do people have such an easy time refuting it?

Which gives me flashbacks about having to learn the specific adrenal enzyme dysfunctions that lead to erroneous sex-assignments at birth. But again, I don’t think people need biology degrees to have an understanding of this and I’d like society to stop trying to give “good faith” interpretations to texts that are explicitly written in bad faith.

s clearly indicates the ‘belonging’ occurs ‘at conception’, not the production of disparately sized cells. When the production occurs is not specified at all and nothing in the definition depends upon when it occurs, merely that it does at some point. This creates it own set of problems, but not the ones everyone is pointing and laughing

Firstly, I have an MD and would have never commented on this without reading the specific text from the WH. Med school curricula cover this in molecular biology, embryology, medical genetics, pediatrics and obstetrics, and endocrinology.

Secondly, the definition implies that zygotes can be classified as male/female at conception, which they obviously cannot be without further clarification. Your “good faith” reasoning is that you can retrospectively make that assignment, but there are no criteria to determine how that assignment ultimately happens, which therefore requires additional layers of “good faith” reasoning. Which takes us back to, yeah, the WH definition is hot garbage.
