In medical gender studies, they don't really consider people as being of one sex. There are multiple dominoes that must line up just so for someone to feel that their gender matches their genitals. One slip up in the order of chemicals released during prenatal and postnatal development can cause issues. Is it any wonder why Republicans look in their pants and get confused?
In well adjusted militaries, it is usually considered an asset to have people on your team who really understand the opposition. It prevents you from making stupid mistakes, such as Iraq.
I see, so the military is composed of such delicate little snowflakes they cannot abide someone LBGT. Thank you for clearing up what a bunch of weenies they are.
No, the purpose of the military is to further the goals of the U.S., much of what they do does not involve breaking anything or killing people. Your notions of the military are so 1940ish.
War industrial complex? Let's to some figures, shall we: U.S. GDP is roughly $19 Trillion. The U.S. DoD bill is roughly $700 Billion. Of that, about 1/2 is personnel costs. About 1/4 is upkeep on physical plant, electricity, fuel, etc. That leaves, putting it generously, about $200 for your "war industrial complex"...out of a $19 Trillion dollar economy. Wow! That's some "war industrial complex" you have there in your head.
It depends. Imagine NASA doing that in some states (which shall go unmentioned) in the U.S. Fox News (sic) would claim it was an advance program by the "deep state" to steal something or other, any made up treasure will do. Now if the Russians offered to do it, Fox News would claim it was an opening to an new era in scientifical cooperation leading to a greater understanding of Hillary and Benghazi.
Ah, Grasshopper, the Republicans in the House are interested in window dressings so they can go to their home districts and tout their prowess in "creating jobs" for the American people...while they screw them out of their health care.
The BBC did a story on this. Many in the field (and probably this little feller's doctors) think that with advances in technology and the immunosupporessants problem, in the future artificial limbs will be the way to go. I'm not sure how far into the future they were projecting.
And if they were smart humans, they waiting until the prey moved close to them, jumped out from behind a rock and startled the prey so that it had a heart attack. Then dragged said prey home.
We also tend to teach religion as a science. The museum in Kentucky reputedly has humans riding dinosaurs based on no evidence at all. Now that's some fancy science!
Total bullshit. America didn't enter the war because of the hangover from WWI, yet another EuroWar. The Republicans in Congress were very anti-war and very anti foreign "entanglements" Defending democracy didn't emerge as an issue until after WWII when the U.S. realized it was the antidote to German, Italian, and Japanese Fascism and Soviet and Chinese Communism. Later, it achieved a life of its own when it was realized it kept Europe from descending again into a collection of small-minded warring states, and when it was realized dictatorships were inherently unstable.
At the time the U.S. dropped the 2 nukes, the planning on the U.S. side was for between a 250,000 to 1,000,000 man invasion of Japan. MacArthur, being about as bright as yer basic dolt, figured it could be done on the cheap. Nimitz knew better. Truman then had to decide what to do. Germany had been defeated, the will to finish the war was ebbing in the U.S. An undefeated Japan meant another war in the future when an emboldened USSR had already taken half of Europe and Mao let Chiang-Kai-shek exhaust his forces against the Japanese figuring the U.S. would defeat Japan and China could descend into the hell he had in mind for it. Given the stakes, at this point the U.S. had already suffered hundreds of thousands of dead, and now he was asked to either (1) sign up for a few more, or (2) see if he couldn't scare the Japanese into stopping. He opted for the latter, arguing for the former meant explaining to the American people how they needed to sacrifice more for maybe a few years more. Sooner or later, word of the atomic bomb would have gotten out. And then he'd have to explain why he hadn't used it to stop the war sooner. Oh, and an invasion of Japan would have resulted more than a million Japanese dead as well, they were arming their school kids with pitchforks to fight the Americans at all costs. And they would have done it for the Emperor.
Yes, but how will Trump make mountain out of molehill if his silly commission is only reporting from data that can be easily checked? Rather, they intended to get their "secret" data, report their Trumped up findings, and then fail to release any data because they'll argue it contains PII including SS numbers.
There are two rules of Trump: (1) he does everything only for himself, (2) he destroys everything he touches.
Okay, from now on we all gonna live in small communes...and trade goods, not money...and...and...die early deaths because there was no government that could put money into research, or watch over the environment to tell everyone to stop certain harmful behaviors. And roads, no need for stinking interstates, we'll just build small roads between the communes. And standards, who needs a government to decide what units of measurement mean, communes can do it for themselves, let there be lots of standards. Every commune can have their own damn universities, no need for common standards in science, each commune can decide for itself.

if stringing together unrelated thoughts into a confusing mess is thinking for you, then yes, we get to see how Trump "thinks".
Errr...Scott Walker is gov. of Wisconsin. It isn't clear he knows where Michigan is anyhow.

Women go through labor to deliver babies. I don't think toughness is uni-dimensional or equated to strength.

HLB: Hi there, I'm your Happy Life Buddy from Microsoft, I'm here to explain your what you are seeing.
User: I don't need you to tell me what I'm seeing.
HLB: Are you sure? You act confused, everybody wants an HLB.
User: Uh...no thanks, I'll do my life by myself.
HLB: Have you examined all the possibilities for full enjoyment, I'm here to help.
User: You can help me by SFTU and leaving me alone.
HLB: No one wants to be alone, I'll keep you company.
User: Gaccckkkk!! Please go away.
HLB: Okay, how about we go over here and discuss aspects of your life.
User: (pulls out gun and shoots self in head)
HLB: Would you like me to explain the afterlife to you?

Companies are all about profits? Does anyone else know this?
eh...you believe this Congress cares about accidents of the proles?
More accurately, it is all the major automakers thinking one of them will get there before the rest.

Yes, this. Now let's all trust MS Winders.

Yep, now days, you'd have been beaten silly by your tormentors' bigger brothers in a gang and left bloody in a ditch.

Well, Tim Horton finished his career in hockey playing for the Buffalo Sabres, maybe that has something to do with it.

Wow!! What a utopia, where do I sign up?
NASA Scientist: Let's deflect an asteroid.
NASA Supervisor: But what if we deflect it into the Earth, we'd better run some simulations with our supercomputers first.
NASA Scientist: Bah, humbug. Let's just wing it.
Only if it lands on your head leaving the rest of us rolling in glee.
