  • I want to frame this and hang it on the back of my bathroom door like every framed spiritually motivating quote overlaying a stock photo that every fuckin boomer aged leather ballsack skinned from hitchiking the US cuz their parents asked them to get a job but all the got were the same stds and athletes foot from showering amd fucking in public shitters, kind of hippie. You know the one, cuz their bathroom smells so bad of potpourri your eyes water and you just know everything you eat for the rest of the day is going to taste like that dirty fuckin hippie’s potpour-fuckin-eeee.

    This isnt guna be easy to make this framed picture of green text fantasy work. Guna need to remodel my shitter so every inch is covered in dry flowers, crystals, oils, makeup they stopped making 50 years ago cuz they killed all the test animals from all the uranium and asbestos its made from. Also should prolly start smoking so the white paint on the walls looks like yellow tar textured wall paper from how much hippie hair is stuck to it.

    But for real tho lol, someone should sell on Etsy framed motivational stock photo quotes of all of 4chan’s greatest moments in green text history.







  • Part 2

    Despite what tinfoil hat fans might yell at the refs, sports are one of the few areas left that holds competitive equality as its governing body. Yes there are always the FIFA’s, NCAA’s, and sports-book gambling to fuel plenty of corruption surrounding sports but the rules that are made and the bodies that govern them are built around keeping the game fair to all competitors. Even in the most toxic of sports communities, I have not heard anyone say anything remotely close to your assumption of:

    Like, imagine an athlete so dedicated to trying to win that they spend years paying stupid amounts of money to go to a psychologist, go on HRT, get surgery, and deal with unbelievable amounts of stigma on top of the training you also would need to do in order to get almost no advantage (or possibly negative advantage) instead of just buying steroids. Imagine being stupid enough to believe that.

    I’m sorry but no real person from either side of politics is thinking that. Everyone who knows a lick about any sport understands they are individuals changing their born sex who also are really good at a sport. I have to explain this to my grandfather all the time: what ever Fox News or any other 24hr network news station tells you the masses are saying/thinking/doing IS NEVER AN ACCURATE DEPICTION OF THE REAL WORLD OR REAL PEOPLE. IT IS WHAT THEY, AS GIANTS IN THE ENTERTAINMEMT INDUSTRY, KNOW WILL GENERATE THE MOST VIEWS. But that is it. A fucking idiot would be able to understand people aren’t cutting dicks off to win at a women’s sport and thats not meant to be a joke. Its also why there isn’t an issue with male athletes protesting the female=>male trans athletes having an unfair advantage.

    Unless you are playing one of the big 4 as a male, you likely are not making enough money playing the pro or pro-am sport to not need a full time job no matter what you play, how good you are or what is between your taint and asshole. Anyone who has an opinion on this topic is either a current/former female athlete/coach or the family member of a female athlete.

    Also, if you go through that list, consider the amount of non-trans athletes each one of those stories are crossing with. Most of the stories talk of championships and records being broke, so I’m just going to go off that. In high school sports that means at the lowest winning tier the trans athlete beat out everyone in their school competing for the chance to rep their school/start on the team. At the county level multiply that by number of schools in that county, so idk like 10 to 20. At regionals were talking multiple counties with multiple schools and albeit they aren’t directly competing and losing to the trans athlete but every athlete who fell short of being the champion tracks who they lost to, who that person they lost to, then went on to win or lose to, etc. etc. etc. At a state level like New York State, you are talking thousands and thousands of public schools. So to your request to “name one transfem,” if that one transfem set a new world record then that is all it takes to have just about everyone who plays the competing sport up in arms.

    Every one of which with a student who played the sport that the trans athlete championed will keep that loss far longer than any other loss in their career. Every athlete knows the circumstances surrounding a loss never justify the loss but that doesn’t mean a loss with any whiff of an asterisk or unfair playing conditions will stick with them waaaaaaay longer.

    What I’d like to see people understand is, this is not any different from any rule change or other medically related sporting governance issue. They are going to get it wrong a couple times, it is going to seem like it will take forever for anything to get fixed because most sports don’t to have one season with rule 1 the the following season with rule 1 version 2. They will always try to not make any changes so they can have more then 1 season to look at for making any subsequent changes to another season. It really is prolly not getting settled all that differently from how diabetic athletes and to a lesser degree ADHD athletes were shelved until they started improving the rules surrounding the TUE (Therapeutic Use Exemptions). Its where my vote stands. Transgenders receiving treatments to transition seem to be a reliable 3% of population regardless of the country. So treat each case independently with a Medical Exemption Request and adapt the TUE reqs:

    • A comprehensive medical history, including documentation from the original diagnosing physician(s) (where possible).
    • The results of all examinations, laboratory investigations and imaging studies relevant to the application.
    • Any costs incurred by the Athlete in making the TUE application and in supplementing it as required by the ITA’s ITUEC are the responsibility of the Athlete.

    I know Lemmy as a community is not going to be friendly with this stance and all I can hope is for the internet, if not for just this one time, could understand that its OK to discuss something without either party wishing ill towards anyone. I understand this is but a fraction of the policy changes made by Trump’s admin that threaten anyone not white and sticking dick in vag but only naturally born vags. That doesn’t mean I have to agree unilaterally one way or the other for every topic tho.




  • Yeah! Let’s shit on one of the few IF NOT ONLY, billionaire who is actively taking action to fight against his own tax class in support of the 99.9% of American’s who are not in his tax bracket. Someone with congressional bills setting minimum tax rates for the top 1% named after them and was proposed to congress with Presidnt Obama’s support, all before getting shut down by congress (guess what income % every congressman and senetor fall under???).

    He actually earned his massisive pile of wealth because hes always been an obsessed autist geek with an estimated IQ over 150 tracking stock market data by fuckin pen and paper. And im not saying he built it from nothing he was dirt poor he worked for every penny - no, im saying he had a wealthy up bringing but before he saw any inheritance, he was already an established wall street 1st team all american supermarketbowl mvp investor and has remained as Berkshire’s board chairman for its entire existence after leaving textile. No one in the .01% has come close to his accomplishments or tenure as a CEO BECAUSE hes the only one who doesnt fit the billionaire mold.

    If you need any more proof he doesnt operate like the rest of his tax bracket, tell me how many other billionaire CEOs who operate their salaray and bonuses the same:

    The salary for Buffett is $100,000 per year with no stock options,[4] which is among the lowest salaries for CEOs of large companies in the United States. Buffett’s salary has not changed in 35 years. Buffett also receives approximately $300,000 worth of home security services from the company annually.

    BUT FOR FUCKS FUCKING SAKE PEOPLE THE MOST IRRATATING THING ABOUT THESE RESPONSES SHITTING ON BUFFET IS THAT HIS FUCKIN TRUST HES LEAVING HIS KIDS IS .01% OF HIS $140+BILLION ESTATE. WITH THE OTHER 99.9% GOING TO THE LISTED NON-PROFITS ABOVE WHICH ARE RAN BY HIS KIDS WITH THE REQUIREMENT TO ACCESS THEIR SPLIT .01% INHERITANCE BEING THAT THEY HAVE A 10 YEAR LIMIT TO GIVE THE ENTIRE $140+BILLION HES LEAVING TO HIS NONPROFITS AWAY.

    Buffett announced in June that he would donate his fortune, now valued at nearly $144 billion, to a charitable trust managed by his three children when he dies, instead of giving it to the Gates Foundation, as he indicated 18 years ago.

    The next generation of Buffetts will then have 10 years to give the money away, Warren Buffett said.

    He’s too fuckin autistic to be a piece of shit billionaire. He blew up D.C. in interviews when he found out his secretary was paying higher income tax rates than he was. He doesnt flip flop political stances based on who is in office. All of his nonprofit foundations and trusts donate (*im not going line by line but its all there in their public 990 forms or whatever theyre called) almost entirely to left of center charities and the amount donated NOT TO HIS FOUNDATIONS BUT IN THE FILINGS MADE BY HIS FOUNDATIONS TO OTHER CHARITABLE NON PROFIT DISPERSMENTS IS IN THE FUCKIN BILLIONS EVERY YEAR WITH A % OF ALL LIABILITIES AND DISTRIBUTIONS THAT GO TO CHARITY IN THE 80%-90% RANGE.

    Im so sick of the “im too lazy to fuckin look anything up so im just guna shit on everything that the trending hivemind tells me to shit on because everything sux, the world is horrible and any good news is a cover up for how shitty everything really and its entirely every person in every generation that came before me’s fault”

    (dont. Just dont. Im going off of articles written about him and no i didnt spend the time researching how they estimate an iq but its universally reported as being genius level which tracks with his obvious autism)
