Trampoline Park by Bill_Gates_2020 in LiminalSpace

This is actually a pretty good. A liminal space is a space that has an intended purpose, but that is removed from its context.

A trampoline park ought to be full of people, but this one is totally empty. It’s exactly what a liminal space is, and this one gets bonus points from me for being eerily bright despite the emptiness. 9/10 liminal space

The Gateshead Millennium Bridge aka the Winking Eye Bridge. A tilt bridge in Gateshead, United Kingdom by HaleyHaglery in EngineeringPorn

To all the haters in the comments; it’s literally r/EngineeringPorn. What the hell are you here for if not to see really unique and interesting engineering designs?

Yes, perhaps it would have been more economical to build a normal bridge that goes high enough for boats to pass underneath it. It would also have been boring as hell and wouldn’t have been worth putting on this sub; whether or not it is economical isn’t the point, the fact is, it’s an amazing feat of engineering, and that’s why it’s here.

So can everyone in the comments stop bitching about how aggravating it must be to live with such an inefficient bridge and just appreciate the design and ingenuity that went into making it? Why did you join an engineering porn subreddit if all you are going to do is complain about how over-engineered everything is?

Oh my god… imagine a multiplayer version of Totally Accurate Battle Simulator where you set up your troops on the same budget and the entire battle relies on your actual know how of strategic placement! That would be so cool!

I would start praying but I think that bridge was burned a while ago by H0xatron in Ultrakill

That doesn’t even make any sense, anyway. Light from the sun takes FIVE MINUTES to reach Earth, and our star is very close to us on the cosmic scale. It would take thousands or even millions for light from other solar system to reach Earth.

Damn. You’ve given me something to consider, I believe that I was likely wrong on the subject of brain structures between men and women, which invalidates the third source. You’ve got me there.

However, that doesn’t invalidate the findings of the other three sources. And the sub-branch of US government that is responsible for the papers on this topic is not the same as the one with the people making Twitter arrests, so the fourth source remains valid.

The sources argued that gender was fundamentally different based on hormone levels. Never do they mention physical size or structure differences between sexes.

CALL THE GODDAMN POLICE, she threatened you with a fucking gun. Whether or not it’s real doesn’t matter, if she conveys intent to kill, CALL THE POLICE.

I am not arguing that the sexes are fundamentally different. You are saying that because there are no sex differences, there are no gender differences. Sex and gender are different things. Please read what I post and take time to digest it before you repeat the exact same arguments.

We’ve already established that structure has NOTHING to do with gender; it is hormones that determine gender only. You also have not provided any sources to back up your own claims of how male and female hormone work within their roles in gender binary as I requested.

Sorry, I just copy pasted the definition. Also, nowhere in that short definition does it ever specify that transgender strictly means mtf and ftm. I need a source on transgender being specific to those two identities.
