The federal legislature is one of the worst. They do a ton of awful shenanigans. I would support a constitutional amendment to ban all of those practices.
Bills can have only one subject. The subject needs to be the title. The title cannot be changed.
Those three rules block at least 90% of federal legislative nonsense.
absolute nonsense
In the 6th century BCE Pythagoras accurately described the overtone series. Aristotle understood that sound was a pressure wave in the air. In the 1st century CE roman architects were designing music halls around their acoustics.
The field started being much more active during the Renaissance and onward. Most of the big names in the field of acoustics predate the invention of microphones.
The supreme court denied the republican’s claim that democrats didn’t wait 30 days before passing the legislation.
Democrats used the technique of “editing” an existing bill by replacing all the text. Its not technically new legislation, its an edit, which doesn’t require 30 days before passage. Clearly against the spirit but not letter of that rule.
Courts can only rule on things they are asked to rule on. The court declined to stop the bill based on the specific procedural issue in this case. The court did not rule on the merits of the redistricting law itself. There will surely be more judgments in future
I have a very similar story too. Would have been nice to have started sooner, but its not how things went.
Its never too late, but its better not to wait.
Don’t worry there’s still time to become old!

Are you sure about that?
The UK seems to have passports and drivers licenses. Screenshots from the age verification dialog boxes on websites allow you to verify your age with an ID card, because they do exist.
This community has rule 4 against government politics. My comment gets a bit close to that topic in discussing american urban design and some of the underlying causes. No mention of any specific politician or law, but I’m hiding the post behind a spoiler tag in case you’d prefer to avoid it.
While I’m reading though this, I can’t help but see all of these issues not as, the author concludes, a failure in the way men are raised and socialized, but the consequences of capitalism and american urban planning.
The man who is not, had a social life that was fine in college. College is the one time in the american life where you get to live somewhere designed primarily for pedestrian travel. A student lives on campus, walks to classes and/or job, and fulfills their needs in community spaces, where you will run into other people, and naturally develop friendships. University is often described as by americans as the best time in their lives.
This man then graduates, gets a job, and subsequently becomes very lonely and disconnected. This isn’t a surprise. In america, we do not have work life balance. There is little time to interact with the people around you, even if the built environment were designed to encouraged it. Urban planning, zoning laws, and treating housing as a profitable investment means he cannot live near to his job, so he has a commute. All his other co-workers also have commutes home after work, so they don’t have time to socialize after, even if it were not for the office culture which is often hostile to socializing. He travels immediately from his isolating job, alone in his car to his home.
His home, in american fashion is designed to be his everything space. Your house is your place to sleep, to eat, to exercise, and to be entertained. The home is in a neighborhood zoned for residences only, so there is nothing else. There are no destinations nearby, no coffee shop at the corner, no nearby park, no place to go to socialize nearby. Going anywhere requires at minimum an hourlong commitment, just to get there because nowhere is accessible without taking the car. This is why the home must be the place for work, study, sleep, and leisure all at once. And it is fundamentally isolating, by design.
America is often criticized for lacking third places. Places that are neither the home, nor work, for socializing with others around you. These places really don’t exist. The people he sees in passing are mainly service workers, whom its a bit rude to reach out to, because they’re just there doing their job. Also there’s a line forming behind you hurry up.
I can’t read the article without seeing the underlying, yet unstated cause. American urban design and culture is behind most of the issues raised by the author. Giving men clear guidance on how to man better will do nothing to make the environment we live in any less hostile to those living in it.
Becoming trans is mental. Wanting to change your gender is what makes you trans, not the hormones or your body.
Some trans people cannot safely or practically get hormone therapy. That does not make them less trans.
Some people, like Alan Turing, were sentenced to feminizing HRT. That does not make them trans.
Though I appreciate this is all in good fun, your comments are taking it in a weird direction. Celeste may crack your egg, (if ur an egg) but nothing beyond that.
This is a vibrant thread that sparked informative discussion about trans people’s interactions with healthcare. None of this would have happened without someone blundering in here and saying something uninformed.

I think music is far better as a hobby. Make music, enjoy it, don’t try to make a living from it if you don’t have to.
A game making you trans is funny because obviously a game cannot do that.
Nato is a defensive organization. If any member is attacked, every other member has to come to their aid. You can’t join if you’re currently being attacked. That’s a pretty fundamental assumption. Nato exists to prevent future wars by acting as a bloc, not to force their members to join existing wars.
To join nato, ukraine needs to win the war and recover all their territory, release their claims on any russian occupied territories, or get enough of nato’s membership on their side to be agree to be forced into the war. None of these are possible anytime soon.
Polls, especially before any campaigning are meaningless. They are a popularity contest. Those surveyed will select names that are familiar. Newsom is in the news, so he gets poll points for being in the news.
It means nothing about the future election. This is putting the proto-cart before the proto-horse.
There is a car behind me, I’m going to drive a little circle around the block to make sure.

I love celeste. It’s a great game, with a great story, and incredible gamefeel. But the best part is that playing it makes you trans!
The point of my reply was to debunk what you said. I’ve not read that text and I am no expert. I can only speculate.
If you know that sound is caused by something vibrating, as was known, and you also know that when something moves through air it pushes the air away, you can reasonably conclude that sound is a vibration in the air caused by a vibration in an object.
But I don’t know how he came to that conclusion, or what, of any he ran experiments he ran to show it.
My point is that anyone saying you need a microphone to learn about acoustics are talking nonsense. You have to already understand acoustics to even build the first microphone.
