Seriously, he can't be ignored? I wonder if he has run a league here. I've heard such people have limited mod powers, maybe that's why.

Trump administration drafting executive order to initiate Department of Education’s elimination
jerryskids replied to Mike Honcho's topic in The Geek Club
I'm in a writer's circle; in fact we are meeting in 90 minutes. We are currently working on communicating the senses; this is best done by showing vs. telling. Also, it is best to avoid adjectives and adverbs. So instead of "my pen moves quickly to sign this EO," Trump might say, "my pen glides over the parchment, the spring absorbing the harsh terrain as it paints the azure peaks and valleys that have become my signature." It's harder than it looks. -
Did you hear that the Chiefs are in the SB? Toofy would still post a bunch about it if they weren't; it's just a coincidence that the Chiefs are in it.

I wish you would quit quitting.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the fillers or surgery. A little well-placed botox, fine.

Hey @edjr, are you going to run the SB squares this year? I think you said you would, and we agreed to keep it at $5. Thanks buddy!

He's popped in a few times. IIRC he said he'd donate a megalodon toof for the playoff competition, and also one for the SB (hey, who runs that, we should get that going!).

I find it hard to not see trans as mental illness...
jerryskids replied to Fireballer's topic in The Geek Club
Mostly good post, but a few things. I think you are lumping multiple things into "transgender." There are a very small number of people who have gender dysphoria. But there are also others who have autogynephilia (when a man is aroused by thinking of himself as a woman), drag queens like edjr's uncle, and unfortunately, confused kids who are told by peers and "authorities" that they are the other gender. And of course the men who pretend to be women to get into safe spaces (15% of "women" in prisons are trans women, that's a bit higher than the 1%-ish of the population!). Sticking with the true gender dysphoria, that is a mental illness, like the other items you listed. If your mind thinks you are a different gender than your body is, that is a mental illness. That is independent of if the cause is biological, chemical, etc. Like the other ones you listed. The question is what we do about it. For all of your other items, we have combinations of medicines and therapies to treat them. But the only "treatment" we have for trans is to... help them trans. Is that like helping someone be depressed? Sociopathic? It seems odd to treat an illness in this manner. -
Kilroy does not seem like the type of person to make something up to win an internet fight. Also, since he is a recruiter, he wouldn't have standing for such a suit (he isn't the one harmed), and if he tried anyway, it would be a long, expensive endeavor that probably wouldn't amount to much besides making him a pariah in the recruiting industry.

Unpossible. Finance exec TrailGuy told me I was crazy. Used 3, maybe even 4 laugh emojis. That's a serious beatdown from a high level guy like that.
-
Good end of life plan. Hope that works out for you.

Finance pleeb who sucks at math. I tried to toss you an olive branch about our cancer journeys, but you chose instead to align with a chunky pseud who will die alone. Oh well, have a good night.

My brain is fine. Walk me through how my current "predicament" is some 10+ year old vendetta. So far, no one has offered to help me. Maybe a nobody pseud like yourself can fill in the blanks?
-
Although I must admit, your not one or two but three laugh emojis are quite compelling!

My mirror works fine. Walk me through how my current "predicament" is some 10+ year old vendetta.

I guess. Help me out, King of Life!

I'm going to have to ask you to spell it out for me. Walk me through how my current "predicament" is some 10+ year old vendetta.

weepers is an idiot on multiple levels. Thinks a president controls how a city manages its employees. Didn't vote for POTUS because he isn't a man, instead he abstained so he could biotch like a little girl about Trump instead of making a choice like a real man. Amen thanks.
-
You are trying too hard to win this. You are pathetic like a few other posters here, who will use any personal stuff to try to win a thread. But, I'm open to learning. Walk me through how my current "predicament" is some 10+ year old vendetta.

Nobody here knows what that means. Jonesy thinks he is a thing here, but nobody knows him. Has anyone said anything in response to my posts? Over PM, I told him about my cancer journey, and he used it against me, and in saying so, said I am looking for attention. Have I ever said anything negative to you about your cancer? As a fellow cancer survivor, I would hope you would appreciate it. But I guess not.
-
Looking back at his post, I think I misread it the first time. He's telling me I violated PM rules by giving him personal info. Winning, King of Life!

Also, nice deflection on the USAID misuse of funds. But you aren't a blue-haired, sky-screaming Leftie.
