The reality of biology in a single clip:
Pretending differences between men and women don't exist is utterly absurd, and people keep saying it. This ACLU lawyer quite literally says "Women and girls who are trans are biological women and girls."
In 2018 Craig Telfor transitioned and became CeCe Telfor.
In 2019 CeCe Telfor won the women's 400m hurdles at the Womens Division II National Championship.
In what moral universe is this fair to women?
Richards now says if the transition had at happened age 22 rather then at 40 no biological women would have had a chance:
It wasn't even close.
Braash got up, played 18 holes of golf drank a pair of shandies (beers mixed with lemonade) then beat Serena 6-1 and Venus 6-2
Could Serena beat me? Yes. I don't play tennis. But she couldn't be a 203rd ranked man fresh of a round of golf and a couple of beers...
Look at the size difference in these pictures. The 14 year old boy dwarf the women.
I'm not saying Venus Williams is not a great athlete. She is.
I'm not saying the U.S. womems soccer tema is not great athletes. They are.
That's not my point at all. All these women could beat me at their sport.
This advantage exist unless you take the pro female athletes with the best training and put them against amateur men. Even then...
The point here is that biological women deserve a level playing field amd they are not getting it when they have to compete against biological men.
One last point....
The biological advantages of men do not diminish the skill, expertise, work ethic, and athleticism of female athletes.
If we really value sports and competition then we ought to value and *FUND* women's sports....

How many are \u201crich young rulers\u201d when it comes to social and cultural power and capital but want to hold on to those riches instead of seeking to give it up to help the vulnerable? Many are going away, yet, I don\u2019t think they are going away with much sorrow

While activists disrupt, dismantle and deconstruct everything from art to tech, Corporations are going woke.
Why? Because despite the woke rhetoric about "income inequality," there is ZERO ideological conflict between wokeness and capitalism. None.
I'll explain

Time to talk Trumpers.
This is Cori Bush's bill to expel from congress anyone who supported election challenges yesterday.
Yesterday was Jan 6.
The bill is dated Jan 5.
*SHE KNEW YOU WOULD PROTEST, LOSE CONTROL, AND GET VIOLENT. AND SHE HAD A BILL READY FOR WHEN YOU DID*
2/
You guys are going to take the "L" here and quite frankly you deserve it. Cori Bush is going to eat your lunch every day until Biden is inaugurated and there isn't a thing you can do about it.
So....
Let's talk about how to make sure this never, ever, happens again.
3/
How did Cori Bush know you guys were going to have problems and violence?
Because she was trained in the lefty protest movement. Lefty organizing are what she did for years, that's her area of expertise. So she knows just how quickly and easily protests go off the rails...
4/
She knew that this was likely planned by people who did not understand how easily protests go bad, and she knew there was a high likelihood of something going wrong.
Someone is going to say "They had people planted to make it go violent, it is not our fault..."
5/
So what?
Your job is to make sure your people behave, and that you have enough trained people to handle agitators looking to make trouble.
The left knows how to do this. The hold peaceful protests *WHEN THEY WANT TO*
Look at the Women's march, 2 million people, no violence

I believe the Republican members of Congress who have incited this domestic terror attack through their attempts to overturn the election must face consequences. They have broken their sacred Oath of Office.

Keep dwelling on this:
Further Examination of the Motif near PRRA Reveals Close Structural Similarity to the SEB Superantigen as well as Sequence Similarities to Neurotoxins and a Viral SAg.
The insertion PRRA together with 7 sequentially preceding residues & succeeding R685 (conserved in β-CoVs) form a motif, Y674QTQTNSPRRAR685, homologous to those of neurotoxins from Ophiophagus (cobra) and Bungarus genera, as well as neurotoxin-like regions from three RABV strains
(20) (Fig. 2D). We further noticed that the same segment bears close similarity to the HIV-1 glycoprotein gp120 SAg motif F164 to V174.
