Ok yesterday my roommate and I decided to go to the local downtown area and explore some. Well there are two concert venues there (The Glass House and Fox Theater). My roomie is a music major and I'm tech theater. So we saw a few guys working on the outside the Glass House and we went up to them and spoke with owner. Well while we were giving him our contact info (we were looking for some type of theater job) the manager started talking about a show that night. The head-lining band was named In Flames. I love metal music BTW. So my roomie and I decided to go get tickets, but the manager said "Don't worry about it, I'll get you 'guys' in." So we got free admission to a sold out In Flames concert with ticket prices normally at $30.

Here is one the songs they played

It's only for the weak

Well with my hip problem I had to sit the whole time, but I was like 20 Feet from the stage and directly in front of me they had a 4 high bass amp tower and right above was an 11 speaker column. OMG!!!!!! that was a light show. One guy in the pit had a seizure at the start due to the strobe lights going off.

LOUD, PROUD, AND INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mythbusters did a story on using sound as a weapon and the final verdict was a definate YES.

Are you still okay Janelle, do you hear any strange buzzing in your ears?

It sounds like you had a great time but as Sally said make sure you spend your time constructively drinking whoops I mean learning.

My hearing returned faster than a few eeks ago. I'm fine.

Sorry to disappoint you and Sally, but I am not a drinker. I am a gamer and the closest thing we get to alcohol is Mtn Dew....... speaking of which my dad wasn't thinking when he bought red plastic cups...........................

Ohh I don't suggest a dew bong, though mine was mixed. :lol:

Perhaps it would be different without mix. ;)

You have 3 floors of a dorm hall famous for LAN parties and D&D............ 97% of these people (including me) will never even go to a full college party.

Dewpong will be our closest thing.

I am not at all disappointed that you do not drink - I am glad and I will let you know that I do not drink either.

That was a variation on an old Nipsy Russell joke, "College is the fountain of knowledge where students go to drink."

Good for you. :D

Love ya,

Sally

      Only three, maybe four, sections even mention transgender.  Most is a conservative agenda I have no problem with.   In the sections that mention transgender, there are very few lines.  Those lines ARE problematic, in every case. Unequivocally.  I can't see some of them standing up in court.  In one case a recommended policy goes against a court decision, which strongly suggests the implementation of that policy would be stopped in court.    Anyone maintaining that this is written simply to support Trump, to support him becoming a dictator, to crush transgender people is feeding you a line.  Nor is it an attempt to erase transgender people.   People will have to decide if the overall goals are worth the few problematic statements.  Overall, I support it.  Of course, I have some reservations.

      It is unfamiliar, therefore threatening.   For 90% or so of the population, gender id can be simply and quickly determined by a quick anatomical observation.  They have no understanding and cannot imagine what it would mean to have a body different from the id.  It is unimaginable.  Therefore, wrong.   So there is this strong headwind.   I haven't entered this discussion, but here is a script: A: I can't imagine what it must be to have TG. B: You're a man, right? A: Well, of course. "amused" B: Imagine you were required by law and custom to wear women's clothing all the time. A: It wouldn't happen. B: Okay, but for the sake of the argument... A: That would be disgusting.  I would be very uncomfortable. B: You have it.  That is what TG people go through all the time. 24-7-365. A: Really? B: And then they are told they are perverts for having those feelings.  The same you just described. A: I see. B: And someone comes along and tells you you need conversion therapy so you will be comfortable wearing women's clothing all the time. A: I think I would break his nose. B: You understand transgender folk better than you think.

      I have found some people correlate TG = child predator ... just as some have correlated homosexual = child predator...    I am baffled by the TG = unsafe connection ... my wife tends to think this way, that this is all about sexual deviancy ... I try to ask how my preference for wearing frilly socks with embroidered flowers and a comfortable camisole under my lavender T-shirts is sexually deviant (or sexual anything) but I don't get very far...

      Best wishes to you as you take this step ... many blessings to you!

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.

      Other than the Boy Scout motto, oath, and law. I use two:   When asked how I'm doing? In all honesty I reply. I would have to make something up to complain. If asked to explain further: I reply. I know someone is having a tougher time than I am, and I pray God blesses them.   I also recite this quote that I have tagged in my signature: Courage, doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."-Unknown    Saying these things daily keep me motivated.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      If this goes on, I am conceding the real possibility of being stopped in WM or somewhere by a concerned citizen who tells me, "Lady, God made you female.  I don't think you should be trying to look like a man. You need to return to your true gender and be comfortable living your life out as a woman."   Begin odd and awkward conversation.  I have been thinking about this this morning.

      There are many MAGA GOP types who are not transphobes, of course. Some MAGA GOP types are transgender.

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
