I hear Dildo Cove is usually warm and wet, this is really a turn of events, I’m vibrating.

Reply to comment by HaAnotherLlama in NC senators propose eliminating participation trophies for youth sports by SpudB0y
I don’t. One thing I object to more than “everyone gets a trophy for showing up” is the actual government telling me that I may not give out random prizes.
Like, what? Why are senators discussing this? School teachers should be discussing this.

Emojis for managers and coaches only. Those frowns are indicative, hey?

Shift to hexadecimal notation. Then the 255th player is #FF aka Flying Fockhead. Appropriate, hey? And somebody gets to be #4F, or #BC, or anything humorous. 8-)

They refer to the dolphins as Dildo Dolphins at one point in the article. I really want to know where the name comes from, is it a family name, a native name, or did whoever name it just think it was amusing.

I wonder just what exactly people who are downvoting you expect to happen? This isn't going to go their way and that doesn't mean that people aren't gonna support them in general. It just means that when it comes to sports biology could be an unfair advantage.

They didn’t just target a stranger- they targeted an adult responsible for two infants right there in the store. She couldn’t just push it off her head in a hurry, it could have struck and injured one of the babies in her cart.

Things get a little freaky near the very ends of the tails of a normal distribution, it has nothing to do with this.

Sure, this is worthy of government action and taxpayer dollars.
Way to dig into the big issues NC.

Yes, perhaps avoid forcing people to work 12-hour days six days per week.

We live in a remote mountainous area with few nearby services. Nearest EV charging station is maybe thirty miles away. The regional power utility goes dark here in storms anyway. No EV is in our immediate future, thank you. Easy fix: Stock up; stay home.

I know intersex people and this talking point getting regurgitated is offensive to them.
The woman with CAH is a teeny woman with life threatening health complications from it that are not about being part "male" or even remotely looking masculine. She counts in that already low 1.7 percent.
Disorders such as XXY are still male. The X chromosome is not a "female" chromosome and is present in everyone.
Those men count in the already low 1.7 percent.
I've been married to an intersex person with androgen issues and they look like your typical person. Using "Intersex" as a gotchya is old and insensitive. The image it's trying to conjure up is a rare unicorn.
As far as Transgender people go, the one closest to me is 100% their observed sex. We know because they were tested. That doesn't invalidate anything within the community so we don't need to lean on "intersex" as some sort of safety net.

Reply to comment by suckmaroot in Angry residents of ‘Protestant village’ replace Irish language sign with Union flags by Vostok-aregreat-710
They'll only pee on the relics at Stonehenge and elsewhere. No, send-em to Cuba for some nice warm times. Confessio: Me mate's family are Scots Irish, and persnickety.
Meanwhile, I recall an Irish-American guy saying he was 14 years old before he learned that FuckingEnglish wasn't one word. 8-)
