  • The observation is that humans, barring any genetical defects of any kind have one of two sexes: male or female, and they generally feel comfortable with the genitals attached to their bodies.

    That’s wrong twice. Most people are born with distinct male or female genitalia. Some are not. There is no “genetical defect” involved in any case.

    Investigating for understanding is always welcome. You’re presupposing that something is “wrong” with people who either don’t have distinctly identifiable genitalia, or whose brains and physical features don’t align like you think they should. There is nothing wrong with those people.



  • The difference is that the woman highlighted in that article had complaints about symptoms she was experiencing. Not complaints from other people about who she was. We’ve also learned a lot more since the late 19th century.

    The cherry on top is the last sentence of the article you linked:

    But our main character would finally rest in peace if we could just give the man credit where he so believed it was due – our universal natural bisexuality.






  • The mayor said he does not believe the federal government has that power.

    Oh, my sweet summer child.

    But let’s talk about what happens if Little t decides to federally mobilize Illinois National Guard against citizens in Chicago. Pritzker is not Newsom. I fully expect that Pritzker would do what Newsom should: as commander, order National Guard troops to stand down. While there is already state law in place that says IL law enforcement cannot assist with federal “immigration enforcement,” we also know that Chicago police has a dodgy history at best. We’ll have protesters, National Guard on both sides, police on both sides, and the Marines.

    Chicago will be uglier than Los Angeles.


  • The only reason it’s an “issue” is because fucking idiots make it an issue.

    If it’s a “neurological issue” that might have “other avenues for treatment,” those avenues for treatment are ones that should be applied to the fucking idiots to get them to stop being fucking idiots. They’re the ones with neurological issues that cause problems for themselves and others.
