""In that familiar old incompetence I haven't missed, Trump's executive order defines sex as what a person is at CONCEPTION. Fetal sex doesn't begin to differentiate until about 7 weeks into gestation. Which means Donald used the highest office in the land to declare all Americans legally female."
"Just realized that this EO outlaws men. At conception, all embryos are female. Which, to be honest, might not be such a bad thing," said legal analyst Jay Reding. "
President Donald Trump published two executive orders late Monday that targeted transgender people, but critics couldn't help but note that the clunky language declared all Americans legally female.
Wait so am I transgender now? Ive never been confused about my sex until now. I thought I was cis het but... according to Donald both he and I are trans?
Which is basically why the IOC gave up on trying to biochemically determinate the gender of athletes in the 1970s.
Yes there biologically 2 genders. And these last bit of odd outliers. Some even show outward oddities like both sets of genitalia, many are only odd on the genetic level while the outward expression is normal. @RustedComputing
Just a little caveat on the, 'everybody is female at conception', defence. We need to be standing up for our trans masc folks too.when the fash start telling us we can't use the female toilets the trans men could be our greatest ally.
Since it seems someone failed to run that executive order past any biologists who could clue them in, let's use she/her to refer to Donald J. Trump until she (a) admits they made a mistake and (b) rescinds that silly executive order. Since she seems to be incapable of admitting that she ever made a mistake, I guess we can use feminine pronouns to refer to Trump for the rest of her life. That should really annoy her if done on a large enough scale. Please boost.
You need to create an additional account and make that an account of (most likely) "Community Group". To create an additional account you need to go to "Settings" → "Manage accounts" → "Register an additional account". (Yes, extremely counter intuitive, I agree. I'm new here as well.)
You can also go to the Network page (first icon top left) and then in the left pane you'll see Groups. Behind that you'll see a + sign, where you can add a group. But that will basically take you to the create account page 😀
Do include screenshots, because I've been in a couple of threads here where some people refer to that plus sign, and other people, myself included, can't find it. 👍
Ah, I've figured out the problem with the missing plus. You need to be member of at least one group for it to appear. I joined "New To Friendica", and lo and behold, it appeared.
Perhaps you need to check the settings "Settings" → "Account" → "Security and privacy" → {"Publish your profile in local site directory?", "Allow your profile to be searchable globally?"}? (I haven't tested this at all myself, just a (probably misguided) attempt at being helpful. 😀
Minusta tämä “virallinen päivä” WhatsAppista Signaliin siirtymiseen on tosi hyvä idea. Kollektiivinen toiminta on aika paljon helpompaa ja kivuttomampaa kuin, että jokainen yksinään ottaa harteilleen systeemisiä ongelmia.
@Rynach Joo niin taisin minäkin joskus silloin häipyä. Joskus viime vuosikymmenellä olin vähän aikaa Facebookissa pariin otteeseen, että taidan olla jo aika rutinoitunut repimään juuret maasta.
Käytin aikaisemmin Signalia, mutta luovuin siitä kun lähisuku ja tutut käyttivät enemmän Whatsappia, eikä yrityksistä huolimatta innostuneet Signalista, koska kaikki käyttivät WA:ta. Samoin Messenger on kahden sisareni käytössä, jotka eivät asu suomessa. He eivät vaihda palvelua, koska eivät ole mitenkään halukkaita muuttamaan mitään, siksi etteivät osaa, ja siksi etteivät ole kiinnostuneita poliittisista tarkoituksista.
– Kiina hyökkää Taiwaniin – Alkaa uusi pandemia – Venäjä aloittaa epäselvän aseellisen operaation Nato-maan rajojen sisällä, mutta Nato ei eskaloi – Nykymuotoinen Nato hajoaa – Yhdysvallat hyökkää johonkin – Yhdysvalloissa murhataan yritysjohtaja tai joku muuten vain pohatta – ... ja toinenkin – Joku republikaanitaustainen yrittää taas Trumpin murhaa (onnistuu tai ei) – Joku muu kuin republikaani murhaa merkittävän republikaanivaikuttajan – Trump kuolee – Natsit saavat haltuunsa läjän ydinaseita (vitsi vitsi, tapahtui jo) – Länsimaissa kansalaisliikehdintä demokratian puolesta voimistuu – Mitä muuta? Jotain hyvääkin?
Olihan tuossa jo muutama hyväkin Lisäyksiä: -Biden pidätetään/teloitetaan -Demokraattinen puolue kielletään Yhdysvalloissa -Persujen kansanedustaja tekee oudon kädenliikeen eduskunnassa ja aloittaa puheenvuoronsa "Mein Mestari" -Sosiaalidemorkaattinen puolue kieltää olevansa olemassa Suomessa -Tulee niin monimutkainen hallituskriisi, että kaikkien solmujen seurauksena Sanna Marin huomaa jostain syystä olevansa taas pääministeri, vaikka ei edes halunnut koko pestiä
