Given that one side of the political spectrum has become staunchly against many aspects of reality, I disagree with your premise.

The Lady Astronaut series by Mary Robinette Kowal. The first book is called The Calculating Stars. Basically, an alternate history where (spoiler for the opening chapter) ::: spoiler spoiler a meteor wipes out the east coast and kick-starts climate change, causing the Space Age to start 10 years early. ::: It follows a Jewish computer (a woman who literally runs calculations for NASA, as seen in Hidden Figures) who wants to become an astronaut, and her struggles with the racism and misogyny of the 1950s.
Here’s the thing: you’re not wrong on what each side seems to have as priorities. It’s just absurd that anyone should think there’s any kind of equivalence between them.
Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog has a commentary track called Commentary! The Musical! It is exactly what it sounds like, and it’s hilarious.
I guess you could say it was…whale done.
A hard g? Like in giraffe?
"It remains unclear what standards Khelif and Lin Yu Ting of Taiwan failed last year to lead to the disqualifications.
The IOC, which is overseeing the boxing competition in Paris, does not test for gender, and there never has been evidence that either Khelif or Lin had XY chromosomes or elevated levels of testosterone. They have competed for years, including at the Tokyo Olympics and several world championships."
So, none of that is true. She may have high testosterone (which isn’t even confirmed), but none of what you said follows. That isn’t even how that works.
There is no trans woman in this case. A female boxer, born and raised as a woman, is being attacked and called a man. What OP is saying is that it’s basically because they don’t see her as attractive, and that’s definitely a major component of it.
What it comes down to is that they’re so obsessed with the idea of trans women that they start seeing them everywhere, and it usually comes down to someone not being quite feminine enough in some way, though there have been cases of people trying to claim some of the most conventionally attractive women in the world were secretly trans.
Copyright absolutely is still a thing, the network is just under the radar at the moment and the people who could be suing over it don’t have visibility on usage of their stuff. But, make no mistake, if it ever gets big enough to get noticed, those people and corporations will absolutely sue.
I think they’re saying snip the header off so you don’t affect it, then reapply at the end.
No, GPT will make things up. It is absolutely not a good source for factual information or advice.
Rainbow vacuums, my parents had one when I was growing up.
Yeah, tell that to Crisis on Infinite Earths.
No, mostly British and some parts of New England.
“an historic” works if you’re not pronouncing the “h”, which is common in some dialects. A vs an isn’t about there being an actual vowel, it’s about the sound. The same happens with honor and herb (again, depending on pronunciation).
That’s just a taxi.
No, it’s not something that is meant to be broader advice or a metaphor for something else, it’s literally advice for playing blackjack. What they’re saying is that it isn’t actually a good idea to split on an 18 when playing.
My fiancee’s car doesn’t like my phone. Sometimes it pairs just fine and gives no issues, other times it will disconnect every 30 seconds. Literally will be working fine, playing music, and then bam, no connection, and sometimes it will be a struggle getting it to reconnect. Doesn’t happen with anyone else’s phone. My phone also never has issues connecting to my car.
Our smart TV (Vizio) sometimes randomly has the video apps crash. In the middle of an episode it will just randomly kick us back to the main menu screen. Seen it happen with multiple apps, so it’s not just a problem with one app’s coding. Happens rarely enough that it’s not a big issue, but still weird.
You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?
