Why are competitive advantages a problem for trans women but not for anyone else? Breanna Stewart (a cis woman) has a wingspan longer than most men taller than her, let alone the women she plays against. Is that unfair? Should we ban her from the WNBA? What about entire groups of people that have biological traits that give them a competitive advantage in certain sports over the rest of world? For example Kenyan and Ethiopian athletes from certain tribes that dominate long distance running in part because of biological advantages. Should we ban them?

And despite the physical advantages they might have, there is little evidence that trans women have some systemic advantage over cis women in sports results. This is a culture war issue fanned by right wing transphobes who hyper focus on a handful of absolute tiny trans women who have done well (out of an already small pool of trans athletes). And the result is that it also negatively harms cis women such as Caster Semenya, Imane Khelif, or even Serena Williams.

Funny you’re being downvoted. Apparently the government sending billions in subsidies to companies that offshore most manufacturing to China anyway is the free market. But China doing the same thing isn’t.

Silicon Valley which is also heavily subsidized by the US government.

I watched Pantheon recently and it’s really good. I love interesting and smart scifi shows like this and wish there were more. Anyone have any recommendations?

Arcane is obviously number 1, but I’m also low key excited for Creature Commandos. Especially with the recent announcement about the team behind The Green Lantern show, it’s got me more excited about the universe as a whole.

Also, it’s not a show but I’m looking forward to The Wild Robot movie as well.

Cars 2 I guess. I don’t love it, but it’s decent and fun.

Might get some pushback for this but I feel like this represents Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood.

I think because they assume most people have already seen the original they kind of rush through a lot of the setup so the first dozen or so episodes aren’t as good as they could be. But then it becomes real good real fast. Especially after episode 19. The final arc is just chef’s kiss.

Haven’t watched any of them yet but I feel like this is the consensus for most of the Star Wars animated shows. That they start off kind of weak (or average) and then quickly improve.

Would you agree with that assessment?

Also you can have your sperm or eggs frozen in case you do want to have kids in the future. Take control of your reproduction and fuck these conservatives.

In the works basically means the script has started to be written. Hopefully there’s a legit future for this but no guarantee.

Even Superman can’t see through lead. Which means we should all be ingesting as much lead as possible to stop the guvmnt from tracking us.
