Regrettably we will need to take the advice of the French on the correct way to deal with Baronesses. gui-trans

I predict "assembly" will amount to bolting the case on.

Revisionism, Pure Revisionism.

Honestly the really sus ones almost certainly aren't by Paul.

Once the conclave is finished we should bring him to meet the new Pope and see if when a Pope and an Antipope meet they annhilate in a burst of divine grace.

I'll be bad, but remember that not too long ago there were laws criminalising homosexuality (and often trans people got caught in the crossfire.) I know a few old butch lesbian types who would pretend to be gay cis men so the others could escape during a raid since the laws didn't effect them as much.

Everyone knows what a biological woman is. Our conclusion solved, we will now take 88 pages (interesting number) to arrive at it to obfuscate this.

Mmm yes interestingstalin-gun-1

To any trans people. Live, please. Do whatever you must to survive this hostility. The pendulum of reaction will subside, it has before, it will again, and we'll need you at the vanguard.

They're nice but I'd like an option with better higher registers and an even balance than the current ones. Nice to bike with though.

The good ones have really nice buttons and levers though.

I find it really hard to find good ones, but then most headphones in general are balanced terribly for Early Music. The PXC 550s are decent throwaways, I've found, but yet to find any I'd consider "good". Earbuds proper are pretty much universally trash.

right, but all it takes is a few stupidly trusting civs clustered together with no malicious ones nearby, and by the time they encounter one they're the local hegemon, and by the time they're big enough to attract a bigger malicious civ they've encountered dark forest theory and countered it. In fact I'd say the dimensional collapse weapon was first invented as a desperate survival strategy by a dark forest civ against a federation.

The entire novel is kind of predicated on first contact being a jealous civ of assholes who grew up in hellworld, and not, say, The Culture.
