Can’t wait to be tried by a jury of 12 people who actually think cops always tell the truth, sounds like a sharp crew. Especially nice in regards to an undercover operation, no deception there.

I can’t wait for the next big movie franchise starring robot police dogs that gets big love in the movie thread here.

There’s nothing in the rulebook that says a robot dog can’t be a cop.

Is that an Air Bud reference?

Can’t wait to hear the new excuses they come up with for why they shoot non-threatening minorities.

I made a video today.

It’s behind a paywall, but this link will bypass the paywall, and there is a free audio version before the paywall break.

i’m not sure how, but every day and every night i would be brainstorming ways to get rid of it, up to and including shooting at whatever is at the top of the pole on a regular basis.

I feel like this is going to be a tough listen, but thanks.

I can’t even pretend to understand the depths of what it means to be trans, but I can certainly understand not wanting to have a bunch of hostile conversations over and over. That said, I certainly appreciate the degree to which you and the other trans folks I’ve come across in my life who’ve chosen to share their stories and perspectives so that, perhaps I may not understand why someone might be trans or what that means, but at least that someone knows they’re trans so deeply that they’d prefer to take on the vast negative forces of society (and even family) rather than just go along with their own body plan and/or karyotype. One special shoutout to pokerjo over on 22, who documented her transition in extremely frank detail while putting on a happy face to field a mix of naive and even slightly hostile questions from people including me who hadn’t really had an opportunity to be so inquisitive of a trans person before.

I’m especially sad to learn how many of your obstacles came from your own family. I’m not really sure how best to wrap up this post, but I’m hearing what you have to say and appreciate hearing your story, even when it’s sad.

Does anyone (looking at @Melkerson) know if transgender qualifies for URM status in college/grad application?

Could be a helpful boost to redress decades of stigmatization .

No idea. I think spidercrab would probably know better than me.

I must be an idiot because I don’t get it.

Which came first the chicken or the egg?

Spoiler: the robot dogs are already racist.
