#chango posting

[pig-demon]

Randomly remembered that “favorite animal” post and realized I did not include grackles in the tags. Shameful!!!

Grackles are great cuz they are mother fuckers

Nothing cheers me up faster than seeing a grackle hopping and skipping away from bigger birds while holding a bundle of french fries in its tiny beak, literally could fly away but chooses to flaunt its bouquet of potato. Fuckhead behavior.

I figured the greater antillean grackle (or Chango was well call them) were the only ones like this, but when I went to the US, i was so delighted to find out the grackles here were slightly bigger but overall The Same personality. Bastard across borders.

I love pigeons too, but there’s amusement in seeing grackles literally trick pigeons into dropping their food.

Also look at this please. This is what a bird that lives in La Perla and tricks pigeons out of their money looks like.

How handsome can you get. I love you changos!

He estado muy desordenada, mi vida no ha podido encontrar estabilidad desde que salí de mi casa corriendo prácticamente, desde que me quedé en casa de mi tía dónde todo era un ir y venir, desde que me mudé a otra casa y me sintiera como una extraña, un fantasma que habita en un cuarto, que ensucia ropa, que se alimenta pero deja los trastes sucios, esa casa no es mi casa... Ninguna es mi casa, ningún lugar es mío, y si tengo la conciencia suficiente no he pertenezco a ninguna casa desde que salí de mi lugar seguro. Salir de esa casa esquinera blanca con dos balcones y terraza, salir de esos 4 cuartos, abandonar la estrecha cocina y olvidar el patio con sus plantas, desde eso nada ha Sido igual, solo he estado vagando por sitios que nunca serán mios, seguiré siendo un fantasma, una entidad a cuanta casa llegue, a cuantas habitaciones nuevas tenga, seguiré estando y al mismo tiempo no.

Rips of the week: 03/03/2025

Thanos Boogaloo and Thanos Boogaloo Baby

Season 4 Episode 1 No Album Release (Read More) Bamboo Boogaloo II (Bamboo Creek) - The Messenger

Ripped by Chango

Season Mine (9) No Album Release (Read More) Bamboo Boogaloo (Bamboo Creek) - The Messenger

Ripped by Myeauxyoozi

As was the case with the end of Season 7, SiIvaGunner kicked 2025 off through an explosive appearance at MAGFest; the music-and-game convention which annually marks some of the most prominent public appearances of the real-world SiIvaGunner team. I've written about this back on MAGFest 2019: SiIvaGunner Presents - High Quality Ripping, but getting to see behind the curtains for just a moment on these panels, vlogs, photoshoots and more is indescribably exciting every year. But panels aside, what I've now been looking forward to seeing most is Chipspace – where individual rippers hold their own sets to showcase their ripping prowess. As someone who's always followed SiIvaGunner as an outsider-looking-in, not knowing any of the rippers in person and only knowing a handful online, it's an unbelievably fun experience to see which kinds of personalities are attached to their rips, to see the passion that a rip often conveys be expressed firsthand through a standout performance. There were tons of fantastic sets this year, and I highly recommend watching the official compilation of them all over on SiIvaGunner2; but today, before I lose my mind thinking about it in isolation any further, I need to talk about legendary ripper Myeauxyoozi's set and the live premiere of Thanos Boogaloo Baby.

And yeah, you read that right; amidst incredible performances of classic rips, along the lines of vvsvlogs' performance of Mother, Father, TechnoMan last year, multiple of these sets also premiere all-new rips to their audience to really keep them on their toes. While lots of these new drops are just genuinely excellent rips, the ones that I always remember well after the fact are the ones that take advantage of their surprise factor to catch the audience off guard. One of my favorite examples is Heboyi's performance of Industry Baby Slander, which is a "slander" rip along the lines of Blookerstein's INDUSTRY KNIGHT (Beta Mix), but which had its visuals unexpectedly substituted for a version specifically poking fun at various MAGFest topics. This surprise factor has continued into this year (seriously, PLEASE check out JoeBro's set, it felt like a fever dream the entire way through) and just reinforced the age-old SiIvaGunner philosophy; even when you think you've seen through all of its tricks, you can NEVER truly predict what it's going to do next. And to truly get to the bottom of the incident this post is about, we'll need to take a few steps back and get to the core of that adage, to the day wherein it perhaps applied most; Season 4 Episode 1's Not Funny Didn't Laugh Day.

For what would become his last year of running the SiIvaGunner channel, Chaze the Chat sought to make Season 4 Episode 1 the most unpredictable season in the channel's run. The goal was to replicate the sense of reckless abandon that had helped define the channel back in Season 1, the chaos that had brought us rips like Battle Theme - Zeno Blade Chronicle X, Live and Ooooooooooooooh, Can't Say Goodbye to Yesterday and many more. It's arguable how well the year ultimately succeeded at its goal – it was always going to be fighting an uphill battle given that the novelty present at the channel's debut was entirely gone, and it would ultimately see a shift in priorities with the exponential growth in scope of the King for Another Day Tournament. Yet for but a day, it felt as if the team had hit the nail right on the head; on the 10th of September, 2019, the focus was almost squarely on making rips as incomprehensible - and, by proxy - fucking stupid as possible. I think Sex - Steve Harvey should give off exactly the kind of vibe I'm describing, yet buried amidst the loud, absurd, barely-coherent postings, sat one video that stuck with me for far longer than I believe should be reasonable: Thanos Boogaloo.

Not because it stands out as meaningful or profound in contrast, to be clear; Thanos Boogaloo is just as brain-rottingly stupid as the rest of what the day had to offer, but was so in a way completely unique to it. The rip's audio is completely unedited – it is literally just playing The Messenger's Bamboo Boogaloo II (Bamboo Creek) as advertised – yet, only a few seconds in, the music is paired with an...interesting gif of hit Marvel villain Thanos busting it down. I recognize that there may well be a newer generation of terminally-online people unaware of just why Thanos in particular was used for this rip, so let me clarify; Thanos, years before Hatsune Miku, Peter Griffin, or Son Goku, was THE first proper collaboration to be put in Fortnite, with an item allowing players to outright transform into him for a limited time all the way back in 2018. Even as someone who had never played Fortnite and has no investment in the MCU, the energy around his addition was absolutely mind-melting; people were left and right laughing their asses of at the imagery of the cold, ruthless titan of a man that Thanos is busting it down through the exact same model-rigging as the cartoonishly exaggerated main player models; the very phrase "THANOS FORTNITE" became a shorthand for absolute absurdity, a catchphrase for brainrot, and mere days after his addition the online posting world would be forever changed by the legendary video Thanos dance. It felt, for a moment, to someone more terminally online than terminally in-theatres, as if Thanos himself eclipsed the MCU in popularity; a new shitpost based either on his appearance in the films or him busting-it-down in Fortnite appearing every hour of the day.

Somewhere along the line, as the guy was continuing to melt the collective minds of the terminally online, we'd see the creation of an absolutely stellar, top-tier image, of the man standing proud with his massive meat hanging out. By the time this image released, Thanos' surge of popularity had already resulted in him appearing in the original SiIvaGunner King for a Day Tournament – the Season 3 one, covered back on How 2 Do Anything – yet as soon as word got out on how well-endowed he allegedly was, his return to the second contest came with an immediate redesign themed around his supposed salaciousness. It was the kind of joke that just kept building, one SiIvaGunner itself didn't even had to escalate themselves for the rest of the internet to instead keep building on top off; and, though his reign had very much subsided by the time Thanos Boogaloo came around, his popularity was still nevertheless fresh in everyone's mind. When the visuals kicked in, and I was made to see an absolutely iconic, low-resolution, low-runtime gif of the guy grooving to the tunes and throwing his ass back in excitement; it was a kind of joy that I don't know how to justify to you whatsoever. Keep in mind, the King for Another Day Tournament still had not happened yet at this point, this event was not themed around it or around Thanos whatsoever; and yet here he was, in a rip otherwise completely unedited, edited and played around with in a fucking hilarious fashion basically just to make a point about Bamboo Boogaloo II from The Messenger slapping so hard that even Thanos couldn't resist throwing it back to it. Certainly, it was far from the first rip with completely unexpected, attention-grabbing visuals – ​THIS RIP WAS MADE BY TEETH GANG haunts me to this day – yet the combination of the character utilized and the rip's unedited audio managed to make it stick out in my mind even all these years later, a testament to how much of a non-sequitur that the SiIva team are still able to make so bizarrely funny.

What I'm getting at with all this, with Not Funny Didn't Laugh Day, with Season 4 Episode 1, with Thanos, with Fortnite – is that that fucking gif of Thanos busting it down sexual style has been stuck in my brain far past the point where Thanos shitposting stopped being a hip and cool thing. Not Funny Didn't Laugh Day came and went, the King for Another Day Tournament would overshadow most of the rest of the year's events through insanely high-quality arrangements like Sunday Morning, and though rips like Sex - Steve Harvey and other absurdist Season 4 Episode 1 masterpieces like Snowball Park - Super Mario 3D World would continue to be referenced later into the channel's life, I rightfully presumed that my obsession with Thanos Boogaloo – a rip lacking entirely in audio material to even reference in so much as a leitmotif – would remain unfruitful, remain as naught but a quirky rip only I quite remembered so strongly. It isn't that I wasn't at peace with that, there's barely any rip to even reference with Thanos Boogaloo and it was moreso a rip that had wormed its way into my brain than one I had immense emotional attachment to...but, yes, by now, you've likely already pieced together the punchline. Six years after the fact, in front of a live audience in person and later on YouTube, Myeauxyoozi – a ripper who wasn't even active when Thanos was all the rage – put an absolutely gigantic smile on my face through his performance of a rip I never expected to see; Thanos Boogaloo Baby.

If you haven't seen this portion of the set yet by this point in reading, I emplore you, sincerely, PLEASE stop reading this post and go watch Myeauxyoozi's Chipspace set; I've timestamped the relevant portion here, but I encourage watching it in its entirety for the full experience. Having covered Myeauxyoozi on here multiple times beforehand for his comedic excellence on rips like Among Drip Drop Galaxy and Shaky Mountain, I can't exactly say that I WASN'T expecting the guy himself to be as charismatic and lively on stage as he wound up being. Nevertheless (and as you'll find me say in the YouTube Premiere chat), it needs to be said; Myeauxyoozi's white boy swag, even before the moment where my life was irreparably changed forever, is simply off the fucking charts. But then, of course, the moment starts its approach. A familiar chiptune-y soundscape fades into view, as our ripper grabs the microphone to make an important notice; that, due to the after-show nature of his set, the visuals he would've otherwise planned for the segment wouldn't be available – the visuals, of course, being "Thanos Dancing on screen". Did my ears deceive me? I thought for but a moment, before being met with another unbelievable follow-up to the disclaimer; to compensate for the lack of Dancing Thanos visuals, Myeauxyoozi boldly proclaimed that he would "do his best to do the same thing". I could never have been prepared for what would come next.

Look, alright, look. I know this is fucking stupid, I KNOW that I'm losing you at this point. I'm usually on here hyping up the excellence in ripper intent, in the emotional core, passion, the beating hearts found on rips like i love(d) you, Poké Village, Jesus of the Underground, Outertale; but I need you to understand just how fucking ingrained into my mind this period of Thanosposting, this first taste of widespread Fortnite-induced brainrot, and, most of all, that FUCKING gif of Thanos throwing it back all was. It felt like all the puzzle pieces were coming into place, years and minutes of foreshadowing at once paying off; Myeauxyoozi's indescribable white boy swag put to use to make the most pitch-perfect, point-for-point recreation of the Thanos dancing gif I could have ever imagined. It was immediately distracting me from the actual quality of Thanos Boogaloo Baby – which, to be clear, is a fucking excellent rip, an incredibly inspired mashup to finally give Bamboo Boogaloo II the rip treatment it deserved – to see this virus of my mind played out on screen in vivid, shot-for-shot detail. I PROMISE I was not alone in this shock; in the moment it all occurred, the entire chat lit up in flames in sheer amazement, the Discord pinging the man multiple times to ask just how the fuck he did that so perfectly. His response, word for word: "You study the gif you become the gif"

And again, I really want to reiterate that this should all not be explained whilst ignoring just how fucking good and funny of a rip Thanos Boogaloo Baby itself already is. Paying tribute to something otherwise so forgotten by the tides of the wider internet collective and seemingly SiIvaGunner itself felt like a complete left turn, and yet its return is, as was taught well beforehand with rips like Shiny Smily TALE and Violet Snow Memories, merely another part of the SiIvaGunner ethos – that NOTHING on SiIvaGunner is truly forgotten. The rip itself is just one of many many examples of Myeuxyoozi proving his ability to find the perfect balance between laughter and listenability, a jam similarly absurd in concept but fantastic in execution to Moriah Carey...but god, man, the live premiere, the PERFORMANCE, sold it all so many levels above what I could've possibly imagined. Myeauxyoozi's jamming continued all throughout the rip's length on the set, which was only highlighted by perhaps the funniest part of it all; the MAGFest staff which was helping maintain the after-show sets and its looping stock visuals found the affair so funny as to take it on themselves (unprompted) to bring up the original Thanos dancing gif live as the performance was happening. To the complete shock of all in the crowd, the student got to be reunited with his master – and for a moment, the entire world appeared so perfect, so beautiful.

...in hindsight, this may well be the most overly long, stupid post I've yet written about a channel that I've already spilled far too much ink over. Yet to me, this moment – a punchline and payoff built across two entirely separate people, two entirely separate events, with five years of distance between them and only vaguely attached to a Fortnite-induced mind virus of 2018 – felt special in such an absurd way that only SiIvaGunner's manic team members ever could have done. Thanos could've reared his head back in focus in any sort of way (and I'm sure he already has, somewhere in the channel), and yet his return was done through using specifically Thanos Boogaloo as a base, through being live-premiered to an audience of unsuspecting victims, and by a man who might actually be the funniest person on the entire SiIvaGunner team putting on an absolutely award-winning performance. The stars, for just a fleeting moment, were all aligned; and it coalesced through one Myeauxyoozi shaking his ass to a demented audience overjoyed to see it all unfold before them.

Montaje Antofagasta Pacífico: Fragmentos de una Región, conquistó con su propuesta artística, personajes históricos, imágenes e ilustraciones.

Cerca de mil estudiantes de las comunas costeras de Antofagasta, Taltal y Tocopilla vivieron la experiencia teatral que habla sobre los Changos, la Guerra del Pacífico y la identidad regional.

En las tablas del emblemático teatro Andrés Pérez de Tocopilla, bajó el telón la compañía Fundación Arte en el Desierto con la obra, Antofagasta Pacífico: Fragmentos de una Región, del director y dramaturgo antofagastino, Esteban Pinto Vargas.

Además del estreno en el Centro Cultural Estación Antofagasta, la compañía realizó seis presentaciones dirigidas a 8 comunidades escolares, con la pieza inédita de teatro patrimonial, que se presentó en Antofagasta, Taltal y Tocopilla con un público estimado de mil estudiantes.

La Iniciativa es financiada por el Gobierno Regional de Antofagasta, con recursos del Fondo Regional de Desarrollo Regional por un monto de $32.982.808, F.N.D.R.-8% Línea Cultura, año 2024, aprobados por el Consejo Regional de Antofagasta.

La pieza teatral, conquistó al público con sus plantas de movimiento, ilustraciones, diseño de vestuario, música original y proyección de imágenes de la naturaleza local, ofreciendo una nueva mirada sobre la historia regional, convirtiéndola en un valioso complemento para los planes de educación y la asignatura de historia.

La obra "Antofagasta Pacífico: Fragmentos de una Región" se estructura en varios actos que abordan diferentes momentos históricos y culturales de la región de Antofagasta. Desde la vida de los Changos, antiguos habitantes costeros, hasta los eventos de la Guerra del Pacífico, relatados por una niña cantinera y un capitán, con una narrativa rica y detallada que conecta el pasado con el presente. Además, incluye un análisis contemporáneo, en la voz de la misma Antofagasta y una vuelta a la historia reciente con el Chango López.

Teatro escolar post Pandemia

El director de la compañía, Esteban Pinto Vargas, destacó el desafío que significa hacer teatro en regiones, especialmente con un enfoque en educación, historia y patrimonio. "es un reto constante, pero también una oportunidad invaluable para conectar con nuestras raíces y educar a través del arte. Nos llena de orgullo poder contribuir al conocimiento y la identidad de nuestros jóvenes y estamos felices con el proceso de mediación y convocatoria que obtuvimos en esta gira 2024", afirmó Pinto Vargas.

La obra se presentó en Antofagasta y en las comunidades escolares de Taltal y Tocopilla, donde estudiantes, que pasaron tres años en cuarentena debido a la pandemia, tuvieron la oportunidad de disfrutar del teatro, muchos de ellos por primera vez.

El profesor de Historia de la Escuela Arturo Prat de Tocopilla, Sergio Tapia, valoró el aporte de la obra, “permite aterrizar los contenidos del ramo de historia a través del teatro y revaloriza la historia regional por sobre lo nacional”.

La estudiante Constanza Quiroga, del Liceo Domingo Latrille de Tocopilla, también destacó la presentación en esa comuna, "Es muy importante que lleguen obras de teatro hasta acá, así vemos el trabajo de las actrices, ojalá podamos ver más seguido más teatro en Tocopilla”, concluyó la estudiante,

Okay so Super Smash Bros. Melee is easily my favorite spectator e-sport. And for 2024 I wanted to watch way more tourneys and keep tabs on how, not only the top players but also the top 64 placing players were been doing.

SSBMRank has released the list of the 125 players eligible for top 100 rank this year and I'm gonna try to guess them. (Hopefully I do better than last year lol.)

While I'm okay with getting people wrong within tiers, my goal is to get as few people in completely wrong tiers as possible, and hopefully not any that are off by more one tier.

My notes were focused on tourney placements more so than head-to-heads, so if there's some mid-low rank player that got some good wins I'm probably gonna completely miss that on my rankings.

But anyway let's get to it:

-

First up Honorable Mention: They did this last year and I think if they do it again Plup is getting it this year. (He got 3rd at a supermajor and did go to 5 events but LACS: Rivals didn't count for rankings so he didn't actually make the cut-off of 5 ballot-worthy events.)

*1: Zain *2: Cody Schwab *3: Mang0 *4-5: moky, Jmook *6-8: aMSa, Aklo, Hungrybox, (Plup*) *9-11: Soonsay, Joshman, (Leffen*), Wizzrobe *12-20: Junebug, Nicki, Spark, Krudo, Salt, SDJ, Axe, KoDoRiN, Trif *21-30: Magi, Ossify, Lucky, Medz, Chem, Morsecode762, S2J, ckyulmiqnudaetr, Fiction, MOF

(From here I get a lot less confident in my picks, before they were kinda confidently sorted in the tiers, from here it's super nebulous.)

*31-50: Wally, Sirmeris, SFOP, Grab, Skerzo, Agent, Panda, 2Saint, Bekvin, CPU0, null, Faust, Ben, Aura, Kacey, KJH, Wevans, Khryke, Zamu, TheRealThing *51-90: Free Palestine, Komodo, 404Cray, Drephen, Zanya, n0ne, Dawson, mvlvchi, bonfire10, JSalt, Michael, Gahtzu, Goosekhan, DrLobster, Raz, bobby big ballz, Mot$, kins0, Graves, salami, max, coffee, Fudge, Khalid, BING, Bbatts, Chango, Balloon Day, nut, Holiday, Paladin, Jude, Equilateral, Frenzy, Preeminent, Kevin Maples, Zuppy, mayb, Beezy, Juicebox

(I felt like if I did a hard cut-off at 100, I'd get a lot wrong. But by cutting it off a little early I can actually be invested in my low rank tier hoping to see all of them make it on the list somewhere.)

*Bottom 10 / Mr. 101 / Unranked: Nanami, Slowking, Lowercase hero, Maher, Iron, Unsure, Louis, KoopaTroopa895, POG Epic Gamer, JChu, OG Kid, Maelstrom, Matteo, Trail, Blue, Eddy Mexico, HPR, Kürv, Jah Ridin', Fro116, Zeo, Elliot, K8A, Kalvar, Polo, bambi, glock in my toyota, essy, Kwyet, NOOT, Yamasaki, Panko, E-tie, Fat Tino, Asidyx

-

And yeah those are my official guesses for 2024. I don't think I'll be as invested in 2025 (I've been playing/watching a lot of Rivals 2), so I doubt I'll do another full top 100 guess next year, but I'll probably still watch all of the major's top 8s so guessing at least top 20-30 is still on the table.

I'll do a follow up post in a month or so once the ranks are officially out, seeing how my guesses stack up to the actual ranks.

Investigating and preserving Quechua

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/investigating-and-preserving-quechua/

Investigating and preserving Quechua

Soledad Chango, a native of Ecuador and a graduate student in MIT’s Indigenous Language Initiative, began preparations for her Quechua course with a clear idea about its purpose.

“Our language matters,” she says. “It’s worth studying and spreading.”

Quechua at MIT, a new two-week introductory class hosted by MIT Global Languages during the Institute’s Independent Activities Period in January, introduced students to the basics of Kichwa, a Quechua variant that is the most widely spoken language in the Americas. The class, which featured an interactive approach, focused on oral and written skills, emphasizing tasks based on familiar contexts. “I prepared conversations that reflect cultural values,” Chango emphasizes. 

Chango, a scholar of language acquisition, credited her advisor, MIT Linguistics professor Norvin Richards, and postdoc Cora Lesure with helping shape the course. Global Languages section head Per Urlaub helped ready the course for the classroom. “They helped me refine my ideas about what to teach and how to teach it,” she says.

Cultural immersion, value, and language acquisition

Because language can often be better understood when connected with its cultural context, Chango introduced students to the history, culture, and geography of the Andes mountains where the language’s speakers live, work, and play. Cultural discussions and interactions with artifacts were designed to help students understand the value of the endangered language.

“Every day, we dedicated time to individually review our writing and grammar skills,” says Isabel Naty Sanchez Taipe, a computer science and education student at Wellesley College and a cross-registered student and student researcher at MIT. “We practiced the pronunciation of new vocabulary and sentences out loud, and engaged in diverse group activities and games where we spoke Quechua as much as possible.” 

Chango sought to emphasize the importance of keeping Kichwa and Quechua alive. When endangered languages disappear, so do the communities and culture from which they rose. 

“In 2014, I was investigating Indigenous language advancement, tracking changes and usage,” she says. “Research shows the youngest Indigenous people retain and value their native languages the least.” 

Multilingualism as a tool for improvement

Multilingualism can prove valuable both academically and professionally.

“I would definitely recommend that people explore languages taught in this manner,” says Prahlad Balaji Iyengar, a PhD student in electrical engineering and computer science who took the course. “I think this was a great opportunity for me to learn a new mode of thought.”

As Chango continues to review and refine the course, she looks to technology to both help retain Quechua’s distinctive traits and reverse its trajectory toward extinction. She wants to ensure languages like Kichwa find interested audiences outside of their native cultures.

“Technology can help spread the word and increase interest in Indigenous languages like Quechua,” she says. “I want to expand its reach from oral tradition and transmission and develop it so it supports quantifiable and replicable language instruction.”

[ad_1] Susana Simonpietri, the inventive director of Chango & Co., an inside design agency in Brooklyn, usually electrifies social media by posting photographs of youngsters’s rooms. With their eye-catching colours, sudden patterns and playful parts, it’s laborious to not love the areas she creates.“I take pleasure in designing them a lot, as a result of I really feel like each time we do a children’ room is a chance for me to be a baby once more,” mentioned Ms. Simonpietri, 44. “We spend simply as a lot time on children’ rooms as we do another room in a home.”However kids include lots of stuff — they usually aren’t at all times inclined to choose up after themselves. Which means having a great storage plan is much more essential than hanging lovely wallpaper.Her recommendation? “It's a must to embrace what they've, however give them instruments to handle it.”Right here’s how she did that for her 4-year-old daughter, Lola.Use Open and Closed StorageYou in all probability don’t need to be confronted with all your little one’s toys, books and artwork provides while you stroll into the room. However right here’s a secret: For those who restrict the variety of issues you possibly can see, the toys or books on show can serve the identical operate as ornamental parts.That’s why Ms. Simonpietri makes use of each open and closed storage.When her agency is designing a storage wall, she mentioned, “often we put a altering desk or a dresser within the center, and add shelving on both aspect.”In Lola’s room, the dresser — which is from Oeuf, and used to have a altering station on prime — offers the closed storage. White metallic wall-mounted bookshelves from CB2 on both aspect of the dresser create area to retailer issues within the open.Add Baskets on Decrease CabinetsFor fast cleanup on the finish of the day, Ms. Simonpietri likes to make use of baskets. Toys and artwork provides might be simply tossed inside them and hid.“Baskets are good for gathering all these shapeless and loopy issues,” she mentioned.However they need to be used solely on decrease cabinets, so kids can see inside them and take issues out with out the chance of spilling every part on the ground.“We hold them low, particularly in order that the kid can use these baskets to place issues away after they’re accomplished enjoying,” Ms. Simonpietri mentioned.Bigger baskets with lids can present further cupboard space on the ground, if obligatory.

Normies like sportsball 🤷. Non sports types hate sports because 1. they were bullied in gym class 2. Normies are fucking annoying about sportsball 3. Resources are devoted to sports, which non sports types think is wasteful.

Participation in headline team sports like football, basketball, baseball, and to a lesser degree hockey, soccer, and lacrosse are heavily associated with being a certain type of successful and sociable person.

If you are claiming that college sports aren’t actually doing anything, the normies and successful people disagree with you on that, and they’re calling the shots because they are normies and successful people. College sports scholarships can’t just be presto chango made into academic scholarships, because those successful normies are donating money to sports scholarships, and they won’t transfer that money to a nerd who doesn’t “bring glory to the school” on the field of battle basketball.

As I already said, I am not sporty. I didn’t even play intramural sports, let alone Division whatever scholarship sports. My alma mater had like 1 whole sports team that was a division sport at all.

I am not personally defending the concept of college athletics here, because 1. i am absolutely not the person who is going to argue about why my full ride Ivy sports scholarship was totally reasonable because tfw no full ride Ivy scholarship 2. I don’t think that college athletics necessarily deserve their current position. (But tearing into that means digging into the entire academic system and that’s another argument and another post.)

But attacking a system that normies like and often have as their hope for their children’s financial future and chance of maintaining the family’s class status intergenerationally is a tough sell and may be a bridge too far. Consider that for poor teens, achieving a scholarship level academic performance from a shit public school is a challenge, and in today’s hyper competitive college environment, excellence in sports is how kids who would have been shoe-ins a generation or two ago but aren’t 3.8s make a good start. The alternative is enlisting.

To a degree, of course this is about gender and not sports and is being used as the most effective anti trans angle, but basically all the pro trans people seem to be aggressively ignorant of WHY sport has been such an effective angle of attack… while acting as if it’s both nbd and existential for trans teens to have the right to play women’s sports.

You walnuts aren’t going to win if you don’t understand the terrain and maneuver accordingly, so stop being angry that I am trying to explain why Title IX was a feminist victory and why people care about women’s college sports.

The issue of how to divide leagues for noncombat sports is obviously for more specific discussion, but again, you are describing a titanic change in the bedrock of multiple sports, which again, the normies aren’t going to like.

Also does anyone actually want a petite basketball league?

Really getting flashbacks to the gay rights era, where the talking points used to justify anti-gay discrimination were just transparently nonsensical but people just really kept repeating them.

"The purpose of marriage is to have kids so that's why we can't let gays marry"

"So, we should also ban infertile people from getting married?"

"No, because an infertile man and a woman might be able to have kids if they hypothetically became fertile so it's okay for them to get married."

????

Okay, I mean, if we're just imagining an arbitrary change in reality gay couples could have kids if one of them suddenly changed sex, I don't see how "If they could have kids, they could have kids" makes any more sense for one couple than the other.

Same with the transparent nonsense of "In biological reality there are only two sexes"

I mean... There are more than two arrangements of sex characteristics in biological reality.

"Yes but it is an indisputable biological reality that only two of those arrangements count and the rest don't."

Yeah I feel like that's a taxonomy, not a "biological fact".
