fun little applet i made
weird how much this sucks compared to a tactile object

seems even more impressive when looked at using 2016 margins where the coalition gets 60-70% 2pp vote in most of these seats

all the annoying commetators saying 'look i followed the rules i am obeying the Laws Of Mathematics what makes you think you can flout them?"

we really need to fix the thing where people think learning math=learning to do the Approved Algorithm rather than conveying ideas/solving problems

People understand that despite being grammatically correct, the sentence "I saw the dog with one eye" has two correct interpretations. Then they go apeshit over equations like this one because they just can't accept that math can also be syntactically unclear https://twitt…

@orellanin @adrusi @ApriiSR @Euclaise_ like
-the ex-gay movement
-bisexual and has maybe had some bad experience with opposite sex
-maybe some shenanigans in political lesbian spaces (but this v much an ideological/cultural extreme that's pretty uncommon in trans spaces)

@orellanin @adrusi @ApriiSR @Euclaise_ there are lots of edge cases here but i think they also happen for gay people

i think i basically endorse this heuristic
"reason about the gender of a person who has medically transitioned for 2 years as you would the sexuality of someone who ids as gay and has been in a gay relationship for 2 years"

@adrusi @ApriiSR @Euclaise_ feels like this is in "being in a gay relationship for 2 years before suddenly realising you were straight" kind of territory

note Warringah at 10th place with 75% support

gotta say, being trans + adhd makes my takes on the ozempic discourse rather overdetermined...

ig overweight people have eating disorders too and we've decided the drug is fine in that case
the main thing would be "being underweight is actually bad for you/your energy levels" or something and people might be idiots about this

is telling people they can buy effective weight loss drugs from the internet unethical
like this might be infohazardous bc something something eating disorders

ok looks like there's one that ships from russia that sells injectables thats out of stock lol

only online pharmacy i can find so far

https://www.unitedpharmacies-uk.md/search.html?search_text=semaglutide&searchbutton=
wonder how long the "in stock" is going to last
pricey, but it's there if you're in the UK

i guess this gender gap could close if we get more heartwarming Netflix shows about poly people or whatever?

also, once you start thinking of your partners other relationships as *genuinely something of value*, well...

i think it's pretty hard to find natural Schelling points other than "you do not get a say over who your partner hooks up with when not with you" and "you can only have sex with your partner"
