fencing has always interested me but I look at this and I just think "single saber beatsaber"
Kinda sick though

I was recently on vacation, chatting with a seemingly nice Canadian. Then he starts going on and on about "how entitled" and "lazy" Indigenous people in Canada are, "all they want are more handouts."

I know all eyes are on America being the psycho clown next door, but this needs more daylight:

WOW: A stunning new report in the WSJ reveals that military advisers intentionally excluded Donald Trump from the command room during the recent high-stakes operation to extract a downed U.S. airman in Iran, because they feared his erratic behavior could jeopardize the mission. 1/

I think it's a mistake to say they don't understand the technology, they do. The risks don't matter to them, control does, being able to pin all your online activity to your file somewhere is something they're willing to risk your safety for.

It's certainly worth the cost of your privacy to them.

Can’t believe they’re actually monologuing. Unending cartoon villain shit.

The plot to enslave America. The plot to enslave humanity. They are announcing it because they think we can no longer stop them

I love seeing trans women get older it’s just really hard to tell we all look 25

Dugdale's appointment would appear to mark a pivot for the organisation. As well as acknowledging the charity's missteps, she also heaped praise on JK Rowling, the author who has become a lightning rod for the ire of the trans community. Asked if she understood why many trans people felt Rowling's approach had become cruel and dehumanising, and contributed to them feeling unwelcome and unaccepted, Dugdale said: "I understand that and I've also heard JK Rowling and other people who hold a different position on these issues to me describe with a similar rawness how they've experienced being opposed for their views. And I just think, the days of these culture wars, about sitting in polar extremes from each other, should be behind us now."

She called for "a bit of kindness, a bit of generosity of spirit, a willingness to get into the grey area to talk about these things calmly. To try and find common ground is the only path through this and it's one that I'm committed to." Dugdale supported the Scottish government's gender recognition reform bill, which aimed to make it simpler and quicker for people to change their legal gender, including 16- and 17-year-olds. This was a move towards "self-ID", , removing the requirement for a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria. The law passed in Scotland in 2022 but was blocked by the UK's Conservative-led government the following year. "I believed in it; I still do," she said, but added that pushing for self-ID was "not top of the list" of Stonewall's priorities. "We are an LGBT organisation, of course we're going to be there for trans people, so that's integral to who we are and what we do. But our priorities now are very much focused on things like securing justice for military veterans and compensation for what they've endured. We're currently working very hard to ensure that there's a ban on conversion therapy in this country, which is incredibly important."

Maybe you should ask JK Rowling?

Oh, while we’re here, let’s talk about your Guardian article.
Do you SERIOUSLY think Rowling could ever have any kindness or generosity of spirit towards trans people? Naive if you do.

As the incoming Chair of Stonewall, you’ve already lost the trans community.

FYI, politics is *supposed* to be boring. If it isn’t, and especially if someone is attempting to deliberately make it exciting, then something has gone terribly terribly wrong.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 2961:
Your voice is unique. It’s a combination of many factors: your upbringing and background; the books you’ve read; your personality. Some people may not like it, but it’s yours. Keep it authentic. Trying to sound like someone else is a betrayal of who you are.

Tried hooking up the big brushless motor again and it's not even starting before giving error codes now.

This might be a do-over from scratch situ. But at least that clears the decks a little more.

When they find mechanisms to remove trans right they can piggy back the removal of contraceptive rights and abortion which is exactly what has happened in many parts of America. Not that people should only care about trans rights when it starts to affect them, but I WISH people would understand this
