  1. It is a valid concern, IMO despite the obvious ridiculous meme
  2. I get it, but surely there are/have been other cases where the transitioning/transitioned athlete is content to stay in the girls competition? Spitballing here..
  3. Another scenario would be the showers. Should a male transitioning to a female or vice versa be allowed to shower and dress with girls and women, and should the feelings of the born females be considered when defining the rules, and the law?
  4. You're right! (It's all sort of confusing) Nonetheless, you've got a female undergoing hormone treatment and annihilating the competition. If it was the Olympics, she/he would be disqualified.
  5. Written during the Bosnian War by a Washington Post reporter
  6. Obviously a hot button issue these days...today I read an article about a high school wrestler who is a male that identifies as a female, and he's destroying the competition, sparking some debate about if he/she should be allowed to compete against girls. IMO, it's an honest question, and with merit, but nowadays you'll get crucified for even questioning it. I support transgender rights, but where do you draw the line? In a case like this, in sport, it's so obviously unfair to the girls. What about their right to compete on a level playing field so to speak?
  7. I've been obsessing about the collapse of Yugoslavia and the wars there. It is chilling. There are tons of good videos on YT about it all. I'm reading a great book as well, it explains everything in very clear terms, and you're able to make some sense out of a very confusing situation. Those Serbs were total psychopaths. Anyone have some good book recommendations on this subject?
  8. I think I need to travel to Serbia
  9. I hear Swedish guys can be really competitive with each other.
  10. I couldn't make it past the first ten minutes of Hacksaw Ridge. Hamfisted Hollywood shite.
  11. My mother was a librarian at a school for the blind. (Mostly brail of course).. I remember her taking me with her for the day when I was a little kid. I remember seeing three blind guys walking through the main hallway with locked arms singing Three Blind Mice. Probably my earliest really vivid memory.
  12. Police/ATF preparing to raid the camp..
  13. He looks composed and can thread a pass. I even reluctantly approve of his man bun.
  14. Tony needs to bring in some Chinese monks to sort them out.
  15. I realistically never expected promotion this season. But I'd didn't think we'd be this hopeless. A massive amount of spending by an enthusiastic new owner has resulted in a crap manager, crap players and crap results. It boggles the mind the degree of abject ineptitude that has permeated the whole club. Right now I truly wonder if we've been cursed. I have the same sinking inevitable feeling that this gets even worse.
  16. The fact that he was chosen as the keynote speaker at CPAC says all you need to know about the current state of the Republican Party. The Tea Party looks moderate compared to the neo-Nazis who have taken over.
  17. My hazard lights started going off mid drive last night...when I got home and shut the car off, the lights kept going and going. I disabled the battery overnight and when I enabled it today, the lights kept going...anyone ever seen this problem? (2004 Ford Escape).
  18. Bad week for Milo, he's already lost a book deal and a keynote speech. Losing his day job would score the trifecta. Here's to hope.

    Control

    The future is now and it's happening fast. Makes you wonder if that lunatic in the subway talking about the guys in silicon valley who control his thoughts was really telling the truth..
