Now that I think about it Curie while jumping from feminine robot Miss Nanny to Female Synth doesn’t ever really strongly identify as being a woman. She’s probably still a feminine non binary.

An example, well meaning, but wrong!

I think Whitmer with Pritzker would be a good combo, both Midwest governors, sure but that’s actually an important area that can swing versus Harris and Newsome both from California (and one would have to move their address because VP and President from same state invalidates that states electoral votes).

Both libs but less ghoulish. Even if Pritzker is a billionaire (weirdly does progressive stuff because doesn’t have to worry about retirement).

Or Kamala Pritzker. She’s bad but I think could be better than Biden and Pritzker is a white middle aged midwestern billionaire so that reassures conservatives a bit.

In between that there is the use of the word for uniformed soldiers fighting with guerilla/partisan tactics. It’s mainly shitty colonial countries like England, Australia, Portugal, Netherlands etc but it made it’s way through them to many African and Asian countries where their special forces will often be called commandos too.

Playing fallout 4 I love KLEO, the gun selling lady in good neighbour who was assigned assaultron at birth. She’s trans AF, funny, deadly, sexy etc.

I went down a rabbit hole of reactions from reddit etc at the time the game was released. And everyone is so wrong, no she’s not offensive representation, she’s actually super cool. A woman is still a woman even with a metal body and beam laser head.

No all assaultrons aren’t automatically women either, yes they’re feminine but in a non binary robot kind of way, KLEO identifies as a woman in a way PAM, Ada and all other assaultrons you meet don’t. She will push back and challenge you if you say she’s just a robot.

Thanks I’m happy where I am, I row about 10 hours a month and recumbent cycle another 10. My legs are pretty huge but my arms look like noodles until I’m flex then they look jacked.

I’ve been trying, I’ve been rowing since 2021, but all that is happening is incredible fitness and being leanly muscular.

Folks were saying “he’s so lucky to have sex with two beautiful women”

AND chuds were like “being stepped on is NOT sex”

And its like buddy don’t tell me how to have sex.

Jake is regularly beefing online with chuds and red scare adjacent people (but I repeat myself).

A while back one of them unearthed a HD porn video Jake was in where two very attractive dommes do a bunch of stuff to him including make him eat his own cum at the end.

It was meant to be “this you?” own. But he was like “yes”. And lots of people (like myself) were like “he’s so lucky”, “he just like me fr” etc

Having a “Jeffrey Epstein the New York York financier?” moment.

Jake Flores? The guy who ate his own cum? (Positive)

I’d probably wait for the last three eps before recommending. Though it’s probably fine as a stand-alone too.

The episode is good, great saber fights, martial arts stuff, twists and deaths. If it keeps up the pace it’s the second best show they’ve made, but it might just be one good episode, in a bunch of meh.

The latest episode was good. But until that snoozefest.

Neat. Yeah the chuds are complaining about the Acoylte but I like the way it shows there’s random other force users floating about. Splinter Jedi. Random Witches (who are not the Dathomir kind) who call the force “the thread”.

Even the big villain it’s not clear if they’re actual Sith, a Sith wannabe, a Sith impersonator etc.

Wild. I just imagine a scene similar to Shogun when Blackthorne is yelling slurs at the Portuguese priest and the confused Japanese are like “aren’t these guys both Christians and foreigners?”, except it’s with 2 Jedi and group of confused local species.

The throwaway line in the Acolyte about splinter Jedi orders is interesting, because it would be hilarious to see a Catholic-Protestant split amongst Jedi. Like yes we both believe in following the light side of the force, that the dark side is evil, but I’m going to kill you because I don’t acknowledge the authority of the high council over individual practicing masters and also it’s okay for me to fuck.

I think the Cybersmith is fascinating, in that he is not doing a bit, I think he is genuine in all his crazy stuff, but he has a self-awareness of the attention and feedback he gets from being himself, so he sort of knows where to lean in to get a response.

My understanding (but happy for more information if anyone has it) on the oestrogen thing, is China in the last few years increased restrictions on pharmaceutical medications across the board. Previously you could buy most non addictive (opiates, benzos et) online without any prescription. Antibiotics. Blood pressure medication, whatever. This is included oestrogen. They would also ship these overseas.

Now it’s harder because you need a prescriptions and there’s other rules. So it wasn’t so much some officials saying “How do we make trans people’s lives harder” but more them bringing what had been a rather laissez-faire situation into regulations more in line with most other countries in the world (Europe, Asia etc). But it did materially affect trans people in China and globally.

Apparently he’s claiming Arce ordered him to do it, to boost his popularity because he and Evo Morales are having a factional battle for control of MAS.

I don’t believe that, but it’s a funny excuse, “I was just following (your) orders”
