I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute.
The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud.
This was the right and only appropriate response.

If you are at an event where someone on stage gives a Hitler salute and that person is not dragged off by security and kicked out, you are at a Nazi rally.

The biological sexes I learned of in developmental biology:
XX
XY
XXY - Klinefelter Syndrome
XYY - Jacob’s Syndrome
XX- Male Syndrome (phenotypically male)
XY- Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (female phenotype)
And this is just what we CURRENTLY know.
So
No
There are not two biological sexes.

When someone get me chocolates. *hint hint*
You can thank a bat for any chocolate you get this year since bats both help spread cacao seeds and eat the insects that feed on cacao. 🍫

So they literally could have set up 400 people in a $1500 a month apartment for 29 YEARS for what they spent to abuse people. Or housed almost 1000 people for a year at the same rate.
In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.
The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million
