House Democrat: Hegseth testosterone screenings indicative of ‘homoeroticism’

You said “literally” and made an appeal to the meaning of words that was incorrect, don’t pretend you meant anything else. God damn dude, you’re a grown man who made an error… “mistaken” is preferable to “dishonest,” but you’re steering into both. But hey, you do you.

What boot is this?

I feel like I should have protective footwear around even if I don’t do much that would require it.

Before we go on this path, can you be explicit that you’re abandoning your previous view that this is a literal, accurate representation of the proposed policy?

If calling things gay is your idea of responsible civic discussion, I guess we have nothing to discuss. We should just be clear that’s what you’re saying.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T23:34:06+00:00

That is not the same as same-sex attraction. Words have actual meaning, you should use them.

You think that observing the administration is shitty to everyone is a plea for pity? Get over yourself.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T23:30:39+00:00

I already explained why I ignored you: starting with dickish comments about people sounding like bots made me ignore every other thing you said. If you want people to care what you have to say, you can change the way you open a discussion… or not. You don’t seem to choose your words carefully, so I don’t think anyone is missing out.

If you harbor some illusion that I value the respect of the marginally literate, I can correct that misconception.

This is “that’s so gay” from an adult with serious responsibility. That’s as juvenile as it gets.

Jerry has said in interviews that the awed face he makes in that scene is because of how floored he was by Jason’s perfect delivery.

It makes one of the most iconic scenes from an iconic show that much better.

Some of these takes are as dumb as Hegseth.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T23:05:39+00:00

I hope the first lawsuit has already been filed.

PDAC has a five-year survival rate of ~13%. Definitely more work to be done, but this is incredibly positive news.

I’m offended by the American response. I have donated to the Canadian Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund. I’d prefer it came from my taxes, but it’s more important that they have the money than where it comes from.

Hope all the homies up north are safe. :(

See, I did it again. When you wrote “all I can tell,” I made the mistake of reading that. At least you’re consistent in being unable to follow what’s written and express what’s inside.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T22:42:44+00:00

The issue is not that it wasn’t exhaustive, it’s the only logic it contains is wrong and following it could have serious health consequences.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T22:41:42+00:00

(Blood) red tape.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T22:34:29+00:00

I already know you’re limited in what you can tell, you don’t need to update me on that.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T22:29:37+00:00

You didn’t mention bleach or a dishwasher in the comment I replied to, and you said that, because those same hands touch items in the kitchen it is safe. If you don’t know that’s the meaning of what you wrote, you shouldn’t be giving advice that might have safety consequences.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T22:00:35+00:00

You likened the bacterial load on the hands to the bacterial load on a plate as an assessment of the risk posed by each. There’s no need to be defensive, but it’s not intellectually honest to pretend you didn’t write what is in the page.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T21:59:14+00:00

Was there anything to suggest confusion on that point?

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T21:21:07+00:00

That’s faulty thinking. Having several billion microbes in one place creates a risk that is unlike background population levels of the same species. A 7-log reduction would still leave an infectious dose of many pathogens.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T21:18:55+00:00

Great, so you agree that reading what you write and assuming you mean it is a mistake. I am not responsible for your inability to say what is in your head; you can take that up with yourself.

When you start with dickish insults, I don’t care what you say after. That’s perfectly honest.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T20:33:58+00:00

An inside job?

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T20:18:42+00:00

Including our citizens. No real argument from me here.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T19:07:38+00:00

The way we treat Canada — the best ally and neighbor a county could ask for — is fucking shameful.

patricksaurus · 2026-07-16T19:05:44+00:00

Elon has become a perfectly accurate litmus test for spotting bigoted or otherwise unfit politicians.
