Rhynoplaz, to asklemmy in Seeking Perspectives: Trans Athletes in Women's Sports

An equal but separate division?

Sounds good on paper, but you’ve essentially just banned them from all sports. Most schools won’t have enough trans students to form a whole team, and that’s even if they all enjoy the same sport! If by some chance you do get them all to team up, can you do that with all of the neighboring schools? They will need teams to play against.

This is a horrible, prejudiced idea.

Hey! Got any grapes?

Rhynoplaz, to asklemmy in How do you cope with the state of the world today?

For me, personally: Shit’s always been out of control, and even though it may seem like human rights are going backwards, we’re better off now than we’ve ever been. Interacting with my own kids and the college students I work with gives me a lot of hope. We really just need the boomers to stop getting nostalgic for the “good old days” when you were allowed to bully anyone who was different from you.

The kids are progress. Support them! Let them turn the world into what they what it to be, and not what we think they need.

Rhynoplaz, to asklemmy in Does tinned food have any nutrition or is it just empty calories?

Wait. Are you telling me that the US actually has a better standard for Nutritional Facts than other first world countries?

And somehow we’re STILL the fattest nation in the world?

Rhynoplaz, to asklemmy in Do streaming services sell your usage data to companies like insurance and medical

It’s more auctioned off, and most businesses aren’t involved in the transaction. Everytime you come across an ad, (usually) Google says, “Hey, I got this person who hangs out on Lemmy and searches for Mozzarella pics WAY too much. Who wants to show him an ad?” And Sargento gives them a few pennies to try to sell you cheese. Of course, all this happens before the page loads, so algorithms are used to assign the ads and track whether or not you interacted with them.

Rhynoplaz, (edited ) to asklemmy in People that went to high schools with 3 or more floors, did you think that was a bit odd?

Oh yeah? Me too! My class was not on the 19th floor.

Rhynoplaz, to asklemmy in What's your favorite piece of bullshit advice?

Really, EVERYTHING originated from star dust, so you’re just returning it to the source!
