  • Being Trans Isn't Normal or Part of Nature...or is it...?

  • Saying nature intended anything is naive

    Chimpanzees have gang wars and eat each other. Doesn't make it right.

  • Ford Worker Suspended for Calling Trump a ‘Pedophile Protector’ Says He Has ‘No Regrets Whatsoever’

  • Parts yes. Cars no.

    It is in Ford's best interest to keep other forgien cars out of the US. If Americans were really free to shop forgien cars the US car companies would all go under.

    Trump will keep out "bad forgien cars"

    Tairiffs are just a cost they pass down to consumers when there are no other options for the consumer other than domestic cars built with tariffed parts.

    They know what they are doing.

  • Sounds like anendophasia

    It is not considered a disorder

    If we were to make a computer to "read our minds" it would pick up on our internal dialog which people with anendophasia do not have.

    People with anendophasia are not dumb. They just think different.

    Like imagine a person that was born deaf. They can't have a verbal dialog in their heads. They could imagine sign language, images, or words. But just because they were born deaf doesn't mean their IQ is low. They just think different.

  • Sorry it is called Curve Grading.

    Curve Grading

    Many ways to do it. But that example where the best student scored a 60%. Everyone would get +40%. That's a Standard Curve method.

    Personally, they didn't curve a lot of grades when I was in high school. It was more a college thing. A hard test that pushes the limit of your knowledge without being unfair.

    But yes a grade can change afterwards for whatever reason the teacher wants. They could just throw on 10% if they felt generous. Definitely apparent when it's like a writing assignment without clear right or whole answers like math.

  • The teacher can pass or fail you

    You could do all the work or none of it and it is up to them to say "pass" or "fail" by giving you a grade

    After a test you could "round" the grades. Like if it was a very hard test and the highest grade was a 60%. You could round everyone's test up by 40%.

    If you made a 0%, now you have a 40%. Everyone passes!

    (Don't think this is too common, but plausible)

    Teachers are "encouraged" to not fail any student by a lot of pressures.

    You have to go above any beyond to fail high school. Trying hard and getting bad grades will generally get you enough to pass. Teachers will "work" with you.

  • Hikaru sacrificed queen but why ?

    Jump

  • Double check.

    King has to take queen.

    When Bishop moves it's a discovered check with the Rook.

    You cannot block both checks therefore King has to run.

    Open spot for Rook to move to back rank.

    Checkmate.

    It's all forced.

  • Giles Corey wouldn't enter a plea to face an unjust trial so they tortured him to get him to enter a plea.

    Giles Corey endured torture so his family would get his property

    There's no correlation between "More Weight" and "More face-eating leopards"

    Giles Corey was in the right, he wasn't a wizard. He fought an unjust government.

    "These people" are nothing like Giles Corey

  • Torso and appendages

    Head/neck being an appendage is arguable. But basically because there are better words to describe it, not because it isn't one.

    Axial and appendicular

  • You sprinkle some more cereal on the milk whenever you run out of cereal.

    The whole point is to not have soggy cereal

    Really depends on preference and cereal type

    It's less of an argument between milk first vs second, but people that like soggy vs crunchy cereal.

    The important thing is to not add too much cereal before you can eat it all. Adding in cereal last just helps make sure you don't.

  • I'd recommend one of these

    A cheap no name brand works too but I enjoy this one. Definitely overpriced at full price but it's on sale.

    You can also pay a little more and get a duo tool that's a tire inflator or a vacuum as well as a blower. Great for the car
