My friend decided that wearing a facemask to work was a good idea. Like one of those ones people in China walk through the street in on news reports.

She said it's to "subvert people's expectations that they are going to see my face. Plus I have a slight cough so I'm being considerate".

What the ****.
What's so wrong with that?

She's not doing it for any reason other than to be "edgy" or "different". Like, why would you choose to wear a facemask? Ever? If you had the choice between not wearing one, and wearing one, why would you wear one?

She also thinks she's super cool taking prescription medication for no reason other than to take it.

Wearing one makes sense if you're near alot of people.. like on the bus, or in a crowded assembly on the streets..

Medical facemasks do not prevent transmission of disease to you tp, they prevent transmission of aerosolized germs from you.  They are completely pointless unless you are sick and coughing and/or sneezing.

She's also trans. So I don't know how that affects your decision.

But she's in Manchester, not bird flu central China or anything.

What's bothering me currently is the amount of money I used to have that is now tied up in keyboards and keyboard parts that have yet to ship :) I imagine this is a common feeling on this board.

Other than that, wtf Super Tuesday???

It definitely isn't. She grinds up codeine and dilutes it and drinks it every day for no reason. She takes clinical research drugs recreationally on the weekend. It's not for any purpose.

horrible morning.... Not only was this morning person extra annoying she also downed a liter container of coffee. She got worse every minute... some people should not be allowed to consume caffeinated drinks.

also some guy was driving me crazy with the auto focus beep on their camera. Why does this beep exist? It should be turned off by default

I just saw a john oliver episode about   transsexuals becoming the next  political-hot-topic..

Since the generic - homosexuality is now accepted mainstream.

That piece was excellent. Transgender is not a subcategory of homosexual though. :thumb:

Jews -> gays -> trans's

Do I miss anything?
(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

the next  political-hot-topic


Always best to focus on <1% of the people rather than on issues such as income inequality and global warming that might effect the world a bit more.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

While I don't disagree that there are large issues that affect a great deal of the population, discrimination based on race, gender, sexuality, gender status, etc should really never be tolerated. If a person happens to be trans they have just as many rights as any of the rest of us and protecting those rights is important. They don't deserve hate for just being who they are. They are just people, same as me.

I feel very strongly about this issue, and equal rights in general.  :)

I never go to the store in the morning to buy fresh Bolillo

But I think the meat is more important than what holds it

I like it.  Espolon is actually pretty solid Tequila and it's like $20 a bottle.  Can't go wrong with that.
