There's a bit more to it than this. He also added 'RT if women don't have penises'. It seems pretty targeted towards transwomen. Angelos Sofocleous, an assistant editor at Durham University's philosophy journal, has an obligation to advocate for lgbt rights or at the very least not go directly against them. There's also the fact that he was indeed wrong.

He had deleted the tweets, but I've read that he has also made several other anti-LGBT statements.

Further, the president of the Philosophy Society, Ryan Lo, said, "Durham University Philosophy Society has a duty to act within the best interests of all of its members, therefore is committed to equality and diversity and to our democratic principles as a group of Durham Student's Union. We do not tolerate practices of racism, sexism, or trans-exclusionary sentiments."

tl;dr He made a comment that directly opposed his orginazation and was fired for it. Not really a surprise.

This reminds me vaguely of the Missing Bullet Holes. Abraham Wald was "assigned" to decide where to armor the planes that were being shot down in WW2. Everyone else was putting more armor where they found the most bullet holes, but Wald had a different idea. He put the armor where the planes had no bullet holes. His reasoning was that the planes that were shot in those areas were destroyed. He was very much responsible for saving the lives of thousands and winning several battles.

I say "allowed" because, to my knowledge, he wasn't even really allowed to know about it. He was more like that friend who isn't allowed to be in the breakroom at work... But he's coming into that breakroom.

I was actually riding with my little cousin (He was like seven) and we drove past a field of cows. He pointed and called my sister's name with complete certainty.

This is the main reason I think he's kinda cool.

I'd still hit it. In any way they want.

Bathing was actually quite common before even for common folk. The people who could afford the money to have paintings done of themselves were also pretty well fed without any unhealthy things found in today's food.

Painters also had a tendency to put themselves into the painting. You usually can't trust a painting to accurately show what that person looked like as it's usually a mix of both the person paying for the painting as well as the painter themself.

Both of those reasons are why you don't really see short-term blemishes in paintings.

Another way to tell the age is by counting the reposts. This is maybe the fifth?

It may come as a surprise to some, but you don't have to beat your child to discipline them.
