If I ever get blue-named for real and not as a part of some April Fools joke I will antagonize you to no end.

You too @HockeyBjj for being a Vikings fan.

That’s really redundant. It’s antagonizing being a Minnesota sports fan

It's not inherently true because it deliberately conflates sex with gender just like the dudebros do when saying you can't be a woman if you're born with a penis. It's a crass and disingenuous argument.

Note though, I'm also against conflating trans issues with those faced by lesbians and gays.

TERFs often argue most transwoman went through life as men and not women thus they have not actually experience life nor oppression as a woman, and there is a nugget in truth there

Something in that apllies.

Can we just for a moment appreciate how, well... well TPB handled the full blown reveal early in their run of Lahey and Randy having a relationship

This is true, they knocked it out of the park with that one
 
Andy Capp said:
But when you say they were "going trans" how far did they go, exactly?

Fashion, hormones, therapy. Basically everything other than getting the dick chopped off.

Fair enough

Yeah they make some good points sometimes in between the hateful stuff they spew

Yep. They're hateful pieces off shit, but some of what they say is true.

The things I mean about being inherently true is stuff like "trans women do not have the burden of biological women due to being raised as a male". That's objectively true. Now, the mental issues issues that go with it is not a privilege, but being a man is.

There is also issues with Trans voices being elevated in woman's circles that has left some woman feeling pushed to the side in places they felt were suppose to be for them. There's obviously other issues with that view point, especially the othering of transwoman, but they doesn't necessarily invalidate how they feel.

It's a much deeper topic than I feel is generally appropriate for the lounge, tbh.

There are a ton of social issues and implications at play.

There was some minor joking from I think Bubbles but they basically moved on after using it as a joke punchline with the "why are you dressed as bumblecock?" joke.



The way it's used as a joke is when Barb tries to get back with Lahey and he gets shitfaced and is found with Randy and Barb loses her shit that Lahey can't stop being with Randy. She's more angry at him basically cheating on her with Randy than him being gay.
 
@Gregolian McConell shot down a 900 Billion Covid relief package

But it’s not even Mitch’s fault you’re not getting your check. The bipartisan senate bill included not $1200 direct checks

it did have 27 billion for the airlines tho. Such bipartisan efforts

I think it was a combination of both.

I think the dude was both a bigot and an ableist, to be honest. Sounds like his brother/sister had some severe mental issues, and the TS was just apathetic.

TBF I'm friend's with the guy on Facebook and it appears he was right about his brother doing it for attention

Yeah, that bill had nothing for normal folks.

I still say fuck airlines. I get not wanting them all to tank but as ticket prices will get outrageous but given how they nickel and dime us for being an ounce over weight on our bags and shit... fuck 'im.

Yeah they always focus more on the dysfunction of the characters instead of "oh look their gay!"

Its been a while since we had much to brag about if that makes you feel any better.

Theres always hope now that stevie is in town

I'm not sure why the lions are the worst franchise in sports history. It's almost amazing to watch year in and year out at this point.
