I read it. The article never states that. Both boxers were tested and found eligible to fight before the tournament. Hours before Khelif's championship bout against a Chinese boxer she was found ineligible. The IBA is corrupt top to bottom, from the refs to the president. "The public can read between the lines". That's a credible statement? The IBA is a credible source? It's an unsubstantiated allegation. There is no credible evidence

Incorrect. There is no credible evidence to suggest that.

In china I had a UK roommate. He was on the phone with his mom mid week when she should have been at work. I asked if she was sick and he was like "No. She took some vacation days to tidy the house." My jaw hit the floor. My vacation days in the US were so precious and so few that I'd never fathom using any to do chores. Unreal that you can have so much vacation you'd elect to spend it doing chores.

I picked up Xcom 2 War of the Chosen after walking away for 2 years. Loaded it up and remembered why, half my squad severely wounded and surrounded. Knuckled down and got everyone out alive. Don't name your soldiers after your friends.

Good

The message isn't for democrats. You insult people based on what they find insulting.

You said it at the end there. Conservative means status quo. Which is not weird.

Gotta take the good with the bad I guess?

Ha. Good luck with that, seeing as it'll be the supreme court ruling on the constitutionality of any law that's passed. In short it'll take a constitutional amendment to do anything, and that's not happening in this political climate

I know there are laws where you can't travel to certain countries with criminal convictions. Like if you have a DUI you can't go to Canada. Surely a child rape conviction should keep you out of France.

While the last part about voting (being persuaded to vote or not vote) is true I think you overestimate the ven diagram of people who are both homophobic and racist. There are plenty who are one and not the other.

I actually really like buttigieg, but he's wrong. A woman of color AND a gay man? I wish we lived in that country but we don't live in that country.

There wouldn't be an enforcement mechanism to collect taxes. Just local extorters

If these red states wanna become third world countries overnight be my guest.

Don't tell Cody

I believe it goes by county.

I think you mean "wurst"

I'm sure your conclusions were ignored. But not because of your gender, it's because they didn't like what you had to say. Buddy, I've seen it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears. As "one of the boys" men feel comfortable telling me things like "I'll never let a girl fly on my endorsement" ( this person being a flight instructor). And "Is there a different mechanic I can talk to?" Before she even gave him a diagnosis. Or flat out ignoring a really good suggestion in a meeting at a brand new school I worked at. Only to have a male colleague suggest the same thing an hour later to praise and action. Shit's fucked.

That's how you get the bonus points as an uptight academic!

Imagine asking a subject matter expert. What a concept!
