You're so close.
You just listed four options, but still argue that's a 'binary'. Every time you look closer, you're going to find another outlier to categorize. Eventually, it starts to make more sense to look at it as a spectrum instead of a rigid set of 'either A or B or AB or {NULL} or ..'
"Don't worry, you can sell it back to the bookstore!"
"Oh, except the professor just released a new page 12, so your copy is out of date. The bookstore only offers $5 back for those."
Happened multiple times.
But it also doesn't mean Republicans are any better.
Who is the progressive wing of the Republican party again? Is it the Jewish space laser lady? The Beetlejuice jerker? The pedophile?
Sorry, that last one was too vague. That could apply to dozens of them.
Do you have any idea just how expensive it would be to do testing on every athlete?
There were 7.8 million student athletes in the US last year and the average cost of a testosterone test is 70 - 100 bucks. Even using conservative estimations, you'd need to spend half a BILLION dollars PER YEAR to accomplish this. And the worst part? Do you know how many of those 7.8 million were trans students? Five.
Not Five thousand. Not Fifty. Five.
You are being distracted and lied to.
I understand that it's a loan word, but my point was that a kimono's cultural meaning is largely similar to how we would say, "Let me go find something to wear". A kimono is a specific way to cut a single piece of cloth into a garment, but the result is still just clothes.
It's like policing what is or isn't "queso cheese". It's really not that big of a deal.
Kimono literally just means "thing to wear".
I've heard multiple Japanese people tell me how funny it is how much foreigners concern themselves over wearing... Clothes.
Hard disagree. He didn't say the actress was prettier. He said the actress was pretty.
If someone being called pretty makes you do defensive that you immediately need validation that you're prettier.. that's textbook insecurity.
A confident person would simply agree or disagree without needing to compare the character to themselves.
I recently read "Blindsight" by Peter Watts which was about how first contact could work with an entirely alien species. It goes deep into both the physical and social sciences involved, and was a fun journey as well.
Does HER reaction imply confidence in any way?
Her being prettier than the actress doesn't mean the actress isn't pretty. Her escalation and need for validation is INSANELY insecure.
"We have less than a 50% prosecution rate for murder."
You sure that's the argument you want to broadcast?
Yay, marketing. The nutritional value of the cereal is probably next to nothing, but if you ate everything else, you'd get all the nutrients you'd need. 1% of the total is still "a part" of the complete breakfast. Technically not false advertising.
Basically, the more food you see, the less nutritional value in the actual cereal.
Lmao. You realize the rainbow is a SPECTRUM, right? If I show you a rainbow, can you draw the line where green stops and teal begins?
