1, trans women are actually at a competitive disadvantage since hormone blockers also nullify the low levels of Testosterone that women produce naturally.

2, of all the fucking countries to suspect of "cheating" by fielding a trans woman, ALGERIA‽

"I hate powdered sugar.. it's poofy and hard to clean and it gets everywhere!"

Funny thing is that with Vader it's not even in an indirect sense.

Mans absolutely could have canonically killed millions with his own two hands,

He got surrounded after crash landing on a dessert planet and the dude looks around and tells the commander calling for his surrender is "All I am surrounded by is fear, and dead men."

IDK how they'd fare against each other in a fight, but Vader is definitely putting in the work to compete on Kharne the Betrayer's million+ kill count, which we can only guess from that being how many people he's killed that he was in control of himself enough to retrieve their skulls to offer to Khorne.

As fucking metal of an ending as that would be, nah they just got a mutual on each other and one of Beowulf's got to keep like one cool thing I think and the rest of the horde was interred with Beowulf in the barrow once the dragon was booted.

Stamp duty makes it sound like it's what happened to them because they didn't kick the brits out over the stamp act.

IIRC it's by doin' a little crabby dance whenever they see other hermit crabs scuttling by until one that's also looking for a new shell spots them and the hermit crab swap meet begins forming.

Tbf a decent amount of "american food" is prepared by intuition rather than by formula

If you're checking measurements for a burger, it's for the individual stacked items you're putting together on the burger and not usually for how much ground meat you need to get off a chuck steak for the burger you want.

I only write down measurements in my own recipes because I'm chronically paranoid I'll fuck everything up since so much of my stuff is already mishmash of previous recipes (just finished putting together a non dairy Knaffeh recipe so my SO can have it in spite of their allergies, had to figure out how to mimic Arrakawi cheese using fake mozz lol XD)

Mine is that the most rabidly anti metric folks stateside are likely to be weapons enthusiasts who measure ammo calibur in metric.

That depends more on the setting, IDK about professional kitchens but most home cooking I've seen measures in imperial.

Oh yeah, because constantly forcing a change it's obvious nobody you're trying to force it on cares about is definitely making things easier for them.

I mean there's really only four ways people use imperial over metric

For cooking, For weighing themselves, For measuring distances, For measuring temperature.

For most other purposes, especially where scientific accuracy is called for, Americans are perfectly aware of and capable of using metric, and mostly do so.

Metric pushing at this point is basically bashing non academics for continuing to use a colloquial measurement that serves them just fine for what they actually need to measure and visualize on a daily basis.

Yeah but with the 7 day week you only have 1 or two intercalaries to figure out

6 day weeks leave you with five or six, and having almost a week on average of extra days to make work feels like too much of a nuisance just to be able to keep a unit of measure that doesn't really serve any actual specificity that you can't get with the Q-W-D format date.

My ideal is dropping the month altogether for 13 week Quarters with the last day being an intercalary outside the week and same for leap days.

If you wanna avoid huge date numbers, break it down further by weeks, so for example my BDay this year would be 3.10.3, third day of the tenth week of the third quarter.

As for year counting, I like Era of History for the current era, dating to the invention of writing, Era of Legend, dating back 100k years to the earliest date that stories we have preserved now would have to date back to, Era of Evolution, which dates back to the development of Life on Earth, Era of Stars which dates back to the birth of the first Stars in the Universe, and finally the Era of Energy, in which the universe was so superheated that large cosmic structures were physically impossible, dating to the Big Bang.

Today's Date is 3.8.1; 5,224 EoH

Just watched the episode of prehistoric planet with my SO where the Dreadnaughti use frog bellows for signalling and mating displays

Now I'm wondering if they cited her specifically on that one

I mean the Turks who put them on the list are about as tan as they are so....

Because they demand recognition via acts of terrorism.

Like we can have a discussion about how closely linked Rojava are to them but the PKK itself is undeniably a terrorist organization that engages in terror tactics to pursue its aims of recognition as an independent state.

Just because we might agree with the IRA in principle doesn't change the fact that they did a fucking lot of car bombings, and the same principle applies here.

Honestly, the constitution at this point is in fact irreparably fucked after the immunity ruling.

We need to throw it all out and start over with an actual democratic system with federal distribution of power that's an actual power sharing agreement instead of traitors jumping to whichever level of government they think they have the most control over at the moment.

Also, abolish the office of president. It's obvious that the independent executive will permanently stand as a danger to the republic no matter who ascends to the white house. The concept inherently promotes parasitic leaching of powers whenever an opposing branch doesn't do thing the executive wants.

Voting Vs "My vote doesn't matter anyways." or "They're all the same anyways."

Pish posh, I'm a software engineer, we're basically the exact same thing! Inscrutable incantations that we don't know how exactly it makes the machine do what we need it to and all!
