  • I’d have to read it more carefully but it does seem that the article you shared is right. I think I should research the topic a lot more to have a better understanding of when it’s fair or not to let a trans person compete. Perhaps it’s not unfair at all and I’ve been falsely led to believe that it is by the media I’ve watched.

    And even if you could prove there was some advantage in swimming events, why would you immediately go to the bigoted solution of banning people from competing?

    To rephrase your question: “why would you ban someone from competing if they have an unfair advantage?”. Do I really need to answer that? It’s not about being bigoted or not, it’s about being fair.

    But you have never once in your entire life seen a Republican politician propose using handicaps rather than bigoted bans. Because it’s not about fairness, it’s about bigotry.

    Don’t make this about US politics. I’m not or want to be a US citizen. My comments are not due to a US Republican/Democratic/Whatever bias. If there’s a bias, it’s my own. Don’t complain about people putting others in boxes and then turn around and do the exact same thing.

    Am I the only here that smells bullshit/ragebait? When your phone has the bootloader unlocked and you’re rooted, you simply cannot receive official software updates. That only works in custom roms.

    EDIT: It seems that for several people this is not the case. Guess I’m wrong then, but personally I’ve never received software update requests after rooting. Right now in my xperia 5v I literally can’t even check to see if there is one. The only way to know is to look up my model in xperifirm.


  • The point is that everyone wants to fuck everyone, but they are the victim because everyone else wants to fuck them. It’s greed from all angles, plain and simple.

    Not really, no. If you’re buying a house for yourself and after that you want to buy a bigger or smaller house, it’d be very dumb to sell waaaay under market when no one else will do that for you in return. You’d be either unable to find a home you can afford or you’d have to spend all of the money from a big house to buy a small apartment.

    I think you have a lot of resentment built up and that’s bad for both objectivity and your own health.

    It’s not my fault that granny was banking on screwing over the millenials to trade up to a beachfront property in the keys

    You’re getting worked up over a fictional person that owns a fictional house and wants to sell it for a fictional price. On top of that, you’re making up a lot of details to get even more upset. Relax dude.
