What happens at the gender triple point?

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 116 points 10 months ago (2 children)

The gender triple point, aka gender superposition, is where a gender can be calculated and estimated, but not observed. Attempting to observe the gender changes it to a different state.

In layman's terms, this is also called "mind your own fucking business, your obsession with my genitals is fucking weird and creepy."

Damn I love science

Fartographer for president!

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Someone take @bigFab@lemmy.world's car keys, they're obviously drunk

@TexasDrunk@lemmy.world, please hand out the "TheFartographer has bad Ideas" pamphlets

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Absolutely fucking not. I'm way more drunk than bigFab. I'm already handing out pamphlets that say "Vote TheFartographer for a fart in every pot and gas in every ass". I don't know what it means either, but I definitely voted for you.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Shit, I voted for you! I've handed out pamphlets that say "TexasDrunk: stealing daddies since 1997 and playing triangle in a punk folk cover band tomorrow." I've offered to fart in a lot of pots and it's been pretty unpopular so far...

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's only unpopular because you're doing it to get them to vote for me. They all know I'm no good.

On an unrelated note, what are you doing up so late? I'm only up because I'm about to head to SA. My buddy has an extra Saturday ticket to Space Con and I'm going to drunkenly and shamelessly flirt with Kate Mulgrew since I don't think Eugene Cordero or George Takei will be there.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

HOLY SHIT, FUCK YOU AND EVERYTHING YOU'VE EVER CARED ABOUT!

I wanted to go to Space Con and decided that it was simply too expensive, especially just a couple of weeks after going to see Rocky Horror Picture Show live. I hope it's amazing and that the entire guest list actually shows up. A few years ago, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Rick Moranis showed up for their first cons and everyone assumed that Alamo City Comic Con was just pulling our leg, so I wouldn't totally discount your favorite celebrities being there.

And I'm up late cuz it's the weekend and I gotta find some way to fuck myself over. Might as well be fucking up my sleep cycle.

The Freeman Coliseum isn't way too far from me, so DM me if you wanna meet up and mutually murder each other or say hi or something.

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (7 children)

Frakes was supposed to be here but he has family stuff or something going on. I'm excited about LeVar Burton but I'm afraid I'm going to sit on the floor crying and singing the Reading Rainbow song.

Man, I love when I find gold like this in the comments section!

That's where you find the bisexual she/theys in hetero relationships.

Transcendence of gender as a concept entirely

I am I, gender is a social construct I no longer need. My gender can be perceived in infinite variations depending upon the observer.

[–] Draconic_NEO@mander.xyz 8 points 10 months ago

All 3 states exist at the same time, rapidly alternating between them.

Gender chain-melted state? Gender superglass? Gender string-net liquid?

[–] wildncrazyguy138@fedia.io 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hmm. I recommend you don't Google that on Bing.

[–] stelelor@lemmy.ca 14 points 10 months ago

I Binged it on DuckDuckGo and got really interesting results about gender differences in blood plasma.

What about the gender triple point?

[–] zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 10 months ago
[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 9 points 10 months ago (3 children)

There is no gender triple point because there are only two genders /s

Just kidding, ther obviously is a gender triple point, I just didn't want to admit that my knowledge is too limited to know anything about it.

I was sure this was 196. But Apparently not

Ahh shit I'm not hot enough. Even self-pressuring isn't working :((

[–] abbadon420@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Have you tried applying gentle pressure to yourself? It can be very good

Look, all I want to know is at which pressure/temperature I turn into a dragon. And how risky is this, considering spontaneous unicornization?

I'm super critical of gender. Let's get rid of all those. Gender vacuum.

Is Ohio the American Bielefeld?

[–] ooterness@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)
  1. Do you know anybody from "Ohio"?
  2. Have you ever been to "Ohio"?
  3. Do you know anybody who has ever been to "Ohio"?

That's what the LGBT Agenda wants you to think.

Does this mean I can specialize in critical gender theory? Wait until the conservatives hear about this one.

[–] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 8 points 10 months ago

I knew the concept of gender had a scientific basis! That's why people are so sure about the whole paradigm

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

Gender gas. I'm gender gas. Final answer, Regis.

Regis? Someone call a doctor!
