Here's one of Michael Crichton's very finest quotes, especially applicable to climate "science":

"I want to pause here and talk about this notion of consensus, and the rise of what has been called consensus science.

I regard consensus science as an extremely pernicious development that ought to be stopped cold in its tracks. Historically, the claim of consensus has been the first refuge of scoundrels; it is a way to avoid debate by claiming that the matter is already settled.

Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because you’re being had.

Let’s be clear: the work of science has nothing whatever to do with consensus. Consensus is the business of politics. Science, on the contrary, requires only one investigator who happens to be right ... In science, consensus is irrelevant."

Best to everyone,

everything happens for a reason is not in the bible but "God promises to work all things to good for those who love him" is.

“I’m often asked if I regret taking this stance, giving up years of my life, having to raise and spend millions of dollars in legal fees, called a bigot… wouldn’t it have been easier to pay him $20,000, let him into the app & just accept that the word woman has evolved? No.”

Her feminist courses in college never prepared her to face someone who knows what they’re talking about. What a brutal takedown.

“Some readers will find this uncomfortable. Others will dismiss it as unkind. But here is the undeniable biological fact that underpins this entire debate: the only prerequisite to being a “trans woman” is to be male.”

@ForWomenScot ‘This is all very complicated. Should we lock up double rapists wearing wigs with a bunch of vulnerable women? People just don’t understand how complex this is. On the one hand, doing so would be inhumane and unlawful. On the other, he’s wearing pink leggings.’

Cross sex hormones are not HRT. The clue is in the name. Hormone replacement treatment replaces small amounts of naturally occurring hormones that have diminished with age. Cross sex hormones don’t replace anything. They are intended to disrupt the body’s hormonal balance.

RILEY GAINES ON BIRTH CONTROL:

“So I was on birth control in college, but only because — as a swimmer — you can imagine it’s not exactly comfortable to bleed in a sport like that. The bathing suits are pretty revealing, and we’re in the water six hours a day.

“I got on it specifically to stop my period entirely. Looking back now at 26, if I could go back and tell 18- or 19-year-old me anything, I would absolutely tell her not to do that.

“I just had a pretty comprehensive health screening — blood work, cancer screenings, the works. One of the only things the doctors flagged was that I had super low bone density. I thought that was strange because I lift weights, which should promote bone growth. So I asked the doctor what could cause it.

“She asked if I had been on birth control that let me skip my periods. When I said yes, she told me that was likely the cause. She said it’s good that we caught it now — I’m young and healthy, so I can work to build it back up — but if I had stayed on it longer, it could have really hurt me in the long term.”

Every child deserves a mother.

I genuinely don’t give a royal fuck what you might think of that statement.

This is absolutely true! I even asked women who insisted on saying things like "primary bedroom" if they were to give up their master's degrees. They did the "Well, that's not really..." and changed the subject.

[annie @soychotic]

The only reason the phrase “master’s degree” survived the 2020s “THAT WORD IS ROOTED IN SLAVERY” epidemic is because all the women who loudly cared about that sort of stuff all have useless masters degrees
