“Who belongs in which generation” discussions, much like the poor, will always be with us.

We should discriminate boomers like we do the poor

In the spirit of cooperation with a future NATO ally, I propose an exchange program of sorts where she comes to the US for a while, and Finland gets someone who they deem to be sufficiently chaste in their social habits. Chuck Grassley maybe.

Do they have the “you know what” at Dairy Queen in Finland?

I've thought this for a while and it's not just red state dems but red counties everywhere. I fully believe a Virginia independent party would be competitive with the GOP in the SW.

 

Question is though of course who they vote for leadership. 

Andrew Yang 

Also

If dems (sorry, “not republicans “)come close in Utah shut down every red state dem party and go full independent

Chipotle and Five Guys are the best 'fast casual' places though.

Five guys is real bad

Facing greater consequences than your average cop who shoots an unarmed black teen

This is such an adorable "scandal."

 

I wonder if I'll ever see a young President in the US. Maybe once more of the boomers die off?

we already had one

Fuck man after decades of proxy wars it's so amazing that Russia even risked engaging in a hot war like this. America just feeding the army that is wrecking Russia is the wet dream of every Reaganite neocon. 

especially since the weapons we're sending are basically from that era

How quaint

As long as this doesn’t mean more sprawl, please, mister governor, own the libs by making statewide zoning reform to allow more housing to be built

Fetterman went to haavaard and is the son of relatively wealthy people but white working class is more of a vibe than concrete bona fides

Forget ego for a second. I don't know surgeons but I've interacted with enough lawyers to suspect they're the same in this regard: not guaranteed to be smart outside of their lane and in fact seem to have made a deal with the devil to sacrifice all reason and intelligence otherwise. That outside of their field they are incomprehensibly idiotic and demand every accommodation for their clear handicap.

So they’re engineers

Right wingers are largely full of shit when they threaten violence. There will be a few here and there that may do something but it’s largely hot air

I think you might be surprised. I never need to oil my griddle (although it's nonstick). 

 

Especially since doing it the "right" way -- fluffing, pouring, sweeping -- takes longer than just weighing. It's easier and more accurate and more consistent. Really not sure why you'd even try to measure flour by volume.

At least for me it’s because I get my daughter to do it. Spoon into measuring cup then level and sift. Good for learning proportions and improving dexterity/hand eye coordination 
 

by weight is far superior and when I bake cakes and more complex pastries I do it that way

Nobody is talking about kids having fun, that's rec league sports. We very clearly said they should 100% be allowed there. We're talking about competitive sports where scholarships and paychecks are on the line. You keep ignoring the parts where SB, Amazatron, and I are talking about high level competitive sport. The stuff in the op is obviously hateful nonsense, but that doesn't mean its not an issue that Lia Thomas is taking a scholarship from biological women, of which there are very few (scholarships). And a bunch of her teammates resent her and have spoken up about it. 

 

I get that this board leans very far to the left, but this isn't an issue that's going to help trans women gain wider support. Its extremely unpopular.

 

There’s a very real difference between allowing a literal child to play in the sport as a member of their identified gender and one for adults. I don’t pretend to know the solution for semi pro or professional trans athletes (mark this down as a first) but at the high school level and below the answer is quite clear: who cares let them play

Jesus Christ y'alls pancakes must be dry as fuuuuuuuuuuck. Even if you're only dealing with a cup and a half you could easily wind up with a lot more flour.

You only end up with more flour if you use the measuring cup to scoop like a maniac.

That’s not the argument in this thread. That side will push any bullshit agenda to discriminate, like the ridiculous issue of transgenders in bathrooms.

 

I’m trying to address the physical advantage of the average male vs the average female in competitive sports. I’ve yet to see a compelling argument, just a bunch of “who cares” or “what about Kenyans in marathons”.

Who cares is correct though

There was only like 2 trans athletes in the whole state of Utah iirc when the governor vetoed the bill there. 
 

people aren’t transitioning to “dominate” sports 

the real concern that literally front and center in this topic is that trans panic is a tool to harass cis and trans people who don’t perfectly conform to society’s notion of masculinity or femininity. That’s the biggest issue and not where should we “let” trans kids play sport at *an amateur level*
