Started life in a San Francisco commune in the height of the 60’s. Raised by social activists, beat poets, drag queens.
Now just a boring web developer living with a husband & t̶w̶o̶ five cats.

Read this. Then explain how what you know about chromosomes rebuts what biologists know.
![Friendly neighborhood biologist here. I see a lot of people are talking about biological sexes and gender right now. Lots of folks make biological sex sex seem really simple.
Well, since it's so simple, let's find the biological roots, shall we? Let's talk about sex... [a thread]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fadcinf34pandjqyyyxnsjmr/bafkreibta2lte7ckok35fz3rik7jpxqjxlkyui4aeyvqmjke3pwtae7dby@jpeg)

The OOP’s message was about the different feeds people see. (Especially low-information people who don’t dig deep.)
It was about discovering WHY a certain subset of people are horrified that we’re not mourning Kirk’s death. They only saw his inspirational posts — never his political stuff.

In this case that clearly wasn’t the case. OOP’s friend was shocked when she saw the bad stuff.
It sounds to me like she just saw his “wholesome” stuff in her feed and didn’t follow actual news.
OOP, like me, had no idea the wholesome stuff existed. Which doesn’t change anyone’s opinion of him.

Exactly. And the original had a lot more depth.
“None of those motivational things he said change my opinion about him because they don't erase the negativity, the subtle calls for violence, the belittling and denigrating of other races religions genders etc.”

Nah, you’re just wrong. That’s isn’t Tyler Robinson. That’s Skye Valadaz, someone people thought might be the shooter before Robinson was identified.

After George Zinn repeatedly stumbled to the ground, probably because his pants were around his ankles, an officer lifted him by his feet. They all proceeded towards the police car with Zinn being carried face down by all limbs.

That may have been the same guy. At some point someone grabbed at Zinn, and for the rest of his journey to the police car, his pants were around his ankles, leaving his white boxers for all to see.

Short version of that video.
This is George Zinn, later arrested for obstruction. Turns out this is a habit of his:
“Zinn is known for showing up — and occasionally disrupting or being arrested at — events ranging from political speeches to…various protests.”

Not officially, but the FBI posted photos of their person of interest. It’s pretty clear from all the context (saying their suspect is college age and that they have security footage of him) that they think this is the shooter.

It’s real. I saw it with my own eyes earlier today, using nitter to view X. (I finally deleted my X account earlier this year.)

Worse, MAGA is saying Vance “owned” Krassenstein. Also, “there is no international law.” 🙄

Imma try to do a bunch of catchup posts about the many cats in my life.
Back story, short version: we had 2 cats, then two important people in our life died, and we inherited their 3 cats. So now we have 5 cats. (Math!)
We were skeptical, but it’s working, so we now have 5 cats + accoutrements.
