@gameragodzilla Skin is more stretched, and fat is really soft. The wound would be bigger rather than give you any protection.
-
I wonder how constantly hopping between two sites will affect my postcount here.

@maiyannah That would prove absolutely nothing, since I'm no athlete. If I had the same training then sure, but I don't.
-
@gameragodzilla Still, I think all competitors should run on the same hardware so to speak for it to be fair.
-
@maiyannah I should remember that you're a jerk when it comes to this particular topic.
-
@maiyannah If you're the best of your biological sex, I think you deserve the title for that category.
-
@maiyannah Eh, I don't intend to convince you, just pointing out why allowing such things causes everything to devolve into arguments on the validity of this or that. The same that happened here would happen to the organizers and authorities of the competition.
-
@maiyannah If the champion has a biological advantage then the whole competition is desvirtuated. Much cleaner to keep the classical restrictions in place.
-
@sim That's what the interview's for. Determining whether people just have different ideas or are actually disruptive.
-
@maiyannah Because I mean, say you're a female boxing champion and accept fighting a transexual for the title. What happens if you lose, and the next contender for the title doesn't agree with that? They have a point in wanting the title to be held by an actual woman they can fight fairly and without biological advantages. This is why I say "professional competitions"
-
@maiyannah In individual competitions that's fine, but in say, the olympics or whatever other huge event where you can't get the entire roster of competitors to agree on it it can't be done while mantaining fairness.
-
@maiyannah IMO people that stray from the norm shouldn't be allowed into professional competitions with sex-based categories as they throw everything off. It's not nice but allowing otherwise makes the competition unfair.
-
@sim I don't want to cater to free speech activists or anything like that, I want to build a working community without disrupting elements. If I build a town I don't want someone to attack others based on ideological extremism or to vote for things that'd clog the machine in the place. I don't mind different ideas, I do mind disruptive ideas.
-
@maiyannah Didn't this happen with an hermaphrodite in the olympics in the first half of the XX century, with their medals being removed after?
-
Or people who don't like cats.

@sim The truth's that under the system I'm thinking of, people wouldn't be barred from retaining the place unless they were disruptive. The difference of ideology I talk about is not liking team B as opposed to team A, but rather stuff like radical feminism, anarchocapitalism or whatever other weird ideology that kills communities someone might have. I don't want someone like that having a say in the direction the place takes.
-
@sim Again there's nothing to discourage family, it's just to prevent land from being owned by people with diametrally different ideologies than what the community was based on. You know as well as I do that nothing says that children have to be similar to their parents as far as ideas.
-
@gameragodzilla It's in sengoku basara already.
-
@roka RIP @cyberpotato's family
-
@maiyannah Should work for Kim Jong Un.
-
@sim That's fine. The goal is to build sort of a... renaissance city state? A cultural hub of sorts. The aim would be in attracting people who want that, rather than people who want to settle and raise a family. Eventually if possible I'd set up a touristic residential area though for anyone who wants to go there for an event or just to visit.
-
@maiyannah Accept no replacements.
-
@sim The intention is to pass the formal ownership of the place to an heir, if for whatever reason I die.
-
@sim Oh, yeah, of course. Officials would have to be both elected by a number of inhabitants of the town and endorsed by the current head of the place (as in, me or whoever I designate as heir) to ensure that they work in the best interest of the project and community. I have no intention to leave it up to whoever wants to exploit the freedom of action little local legislation would allow. A council of population representatives could also review decisions made by officials if there's complaint, so it'd be kind of a constitutional monarchy of sorts.
-
@sim The idea is to mantain an homogenous community over anything else. As far as government goes, if the government ever made a push to take control of the place I'd rather donate all plots to their current users or burn down the whole place than hand over the project to a politically-driven authority.
-
Smart reindeer.
-
@sim Honestly as far as inheritance goes the son/daughter would just have to go through the same interviews and background checks their parents did, nothing else. As for widows the contract can be done with a juridic person, so a marriage could be owners both. It's simply to avoid someone who doesn't fit the community suddenly coming into complete posession of a piece of land and throwing harmony off the board. Other than that in all practical aspects it's the same as ownership and heirs can if they wish renew the contract on their name.
This kind of thing is sometimes done to prevent inheritance drama, for example donating your house to your son and making a contract with them where you have practical ownership of the house until your death, so when you die the house goes to your son without complications rather than go through the standard division of wealth. -
@tiffany Are you a rockkin
