   'SEX CHANGE BUTTON', on the doctor's office check-in screen.  Just a dermatology visit, to get my 'demographics' they had said, at the check-in desk.
New Patient, so the office wanted all my pronouns, given or made up I guess.  They had three pronouns on the menu, I think, but also had a (touch screen) button;
   <<<< Change Sex >>>>. that I was REEAALLLY careful, to not touch.  In case they had me anethesitized, I wouldn't expect to wake up to, surprised.

   I think, we get to make up a pronoun...mine might be:
   Born in Oakland.
RJSV:
...oh yeah, and that office check-in screen would not accept lower case letters, in my email contact. Lol
Buriedcode:
Surprised just how off the rails this thread has got.

Anyways, back on topic, good to see Musk is sticking to his "freedom of speech" shtick and not banning anyone based on hate speech. oh.. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-63826675  If he really has lifted a lot of resctrictions, it'll only get worse.  I wonder if he'll ever admit he was wrong?

(edit: I'm aware that there isn't really a win for anyone here, you can't just let everything pass, but he desperately wants to be seen as someone who doesn't censor, its pretty hypocritical, and entertaining).

To be fair, he never said hate speech would be allowed. He specifically said it would no be a free for all, his promise was not to ban anyone for saying something counter to a certain political ideology, threats of violence, antisemitism and such are still not allowed. His claim was they were going to assemble a diverse team to handle content moderation.

Kanye is committing the social equivalent of self-harm.  Who publicly hangs out with white supremacist's and claims Hitler was an alright guy?  I think he is bored and wants attention.
