  1. You’re right. I apologize. Research suggests that there are physical differences in brain structure among trans folk. More so ftm. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-there-something-unique-about-the-transgender-brain/ I try to keep in mind that nature makes humans born with male, female, and hermaphrodite genders. Given the complexity of the human brain, I am bemused by the confusion and resistance at the idea that being transgender is a not uncommon human trait.
  2. Driving the family through RMNP, we came upon a line of parked cars, with people milling about. When the teens saw the moose, out of the car they went. My wife followed. When I saw the calf, I busily hurried the ladies back into the vehicle. Happily, that mama wasn’t perturbed by the dozen humans standing between her and her youngster.
  3. So pompous. But, while smoked salmon is a family craving on Christmas, (with Wholly Bagels,) we do eat salmon almost monthly. And, on those circumstances, we consume salmon raw.
  4. Yep. I was wrong about the intent of the SEGM piece. Our smoked salmon, though, held most of my attention. It turned out great. Mea culpa.
  5. When it is included in a political agenda, it is difficult. The Cass review you promote made the assumption that expertise equated to bias, a novel, and political, decision. Nor was the review evaluated by peers before publication. I have already linked the Yale critique, which you ignored. https://law.yale.edu/sites/default/files/documents/integrity-project_cass-response.pdf The Society for Evidence Based Gender Medicine seem to like what Yale had to say, and here are their comments, which include: “the Cass Review “repeatedly misuses data and violates its own evidentiary standards,” was “rife with misapplications of the scientific method,” Ah, politics. https://segm.org/Cass_Integrity_Project_Yale#:~:text=The paper%2C written by Meredithe,rife with misapplications of the
  6. Y’all know what attracts families with young children. Of course y’all do. Excellent schools.
  7. All religions should be fanatics like the Quakers. ”Quakerism is a religious movement begun by George Fox in the 17th century. Quakers believe that all people have access to the inner light of direct communion with God. They believe in the spiritual equality of all people, pacifism, consensus, and simplicity.”
  8. Or, you could explain yourself.
  9. The best schools in systems in the US do not spend the least, though. Wisconsin gets the best ROI spending just north of $12,600. Texas spends just over $9,600. It might be easy to spend too much while earning a poor return, but it is very hard to cheap out and excel.
  10. Drive Friendly is grammatically incorrect and this state has gone downhill ever since those signs appeared.
  11. Didn’t know Buster Scruggs took up coaching.
  12. This happened. Posted without comment. Louisiana forbids public health workers from promoting COVID, flu and mpox shots https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2024/12/20/nx-s1-5223440/louisiana-ban-public-health-promoting-covid-flu-mpox-vaccines-landry-rfk-jr-anti-vaccine
  13. Somehow, the yammering adds volume to the silence.
  14. Based on a Carl Sagan novel.
  15. The NHS is controlled by the British government. Our Endocrine Society and the Mayo Clinic are not under the federal thumb. They are run by experts in their field. You are due no credibility on the subject, as your posts have proven. You have met every opportunity to explain, to convey, and to inform by choosing to ridicule.
  16. For most of my life, I believed most everything I became aware of was included in my dome. The vassitudes of aging have belied that belief. I acknowledge you are known to me, much like the mesquite thorn that overmatched my footwear. Make the most of it among the company of mesquite thorns. The reason you are the mesquite thorn that has made itself known isn’t due to insecurity. Just the opposite. It is certainty. You are a threat to members of my family. US institutions and medical experts have gone rogue? Fuck you. Further, fuck your lily-livered posts on the subject of the alt right and the scourge of turnip as well. You are far more enabler than critic.
  17. Don’t sleep on turnip, Vance, and the shit weasel known as Representative Gill attending the Army-Navy game as a threesome. To refresh y’all’s memory, Neely, apparently a mentally disturbed homeless person was acting out on a train. It is arguable that Penny acted righteously by restraining Neely, up until the moment his chokehold knocked out Neely. He was filmed as he continue to choke the man for another sixty seconds, despite being assisted by other passengers who helped hold down Neely. Despite the warnings of others that he was now killing Neely. The newly elected Rep from North Texas’ remarks were broadcast on Right Side Broadcasting media. The Wiki entry for Neely’s murder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_Jordan_Neely
  18. Under the premise that discovery is a good thing, TIL science has discovered how to split electrons into fractions of an electron. https://scitechdaily.com/a-physics-discovery-so-strange-its-changing-quantum-theory/
  19. Even Ana has stopped castigating US policy on Israel/Palestine post election, which is weird given the incoming administration is so keen to be seen as more supportive of Israel that the current WH, and the named new Ambassador to Israel was quoted as saying there is no such thing as Palestine. He has since focused his hate on Israel. I’m open to arguments he is not so far up Putin’s ass he might be compared to a tapeworm.
