![]() ![]() With the Steam sale there is always some sort of mini-game that happens in the background, that involves collecting cards or voting on this or that item. During the sale you can see normally $40 games going for $4 and other ludicrous things. For those who have not experienced the summer steam sale, it is pretty much Christmas for gamers. Sometimes these experiments work out, other times not so much, but this is pretty much my preferred method of cooking… dump a bunch of ingredients together and see what happens.Īnother experiment is going on right now on the Steam page as they have officially launched their summer sale. ![]() So for the next few days I will be eating on the leftovers that are so neatly packed away into some giant tubs from Ikea. It was “odd” but I have to say once I added some salt, pepper and sriracha it was rather tasty. ![]() In theory I could have cooked it on high for a few hours with the crock pot lid off and probably done just fine, but instead I had a bag of frozen noodles in the freezer and dumped those in to make what ultimately was curried chicken noodle soup. The truth ended up a little between, when the end result was significantly soupier than I expected. I figured I was either going to end up with chicken curry or a colossal mess. I placed three large chicken breasts cut into strips, some diced carrots, some diced potatoes, some hot curry bullion and chicken broth in the crock pot. Caster Semenya is not a man: She is a Black woman runner who is being subject to repeated public scrutiny and invasive bodily regulation because she disrupts expectations.Īs Nation Sports editor Dave Zirin points out, “arguments about who is really ‘female’ have been used against women athletes for as long as women have played sports.” These efforts to define some female athletes out of the category of “woman” have been leveraged particularly against Black women.Yesterday morning before I left the house I tried an experiment. This deliberate narrative about testosterone and “maleness” is used to hurt both Black cisgender women like Semenya and all transgender women who are being systematically excluded from women’s spaces and categories. And that lens is used to police some bodies in the alleged service of others: Just google “Serena Williams” or “Michelle Obama” alongside anti-transgender slurs to see how Black bodies and trans bodies are policed out of the category of “woman.” The idea that you can identify a single physiological trait that neatly separates two binary sexes is simply false and serves the very structures of patriarchy and white supremacy that are used to attack powerful Black women (cisgender and transgender) who are perceived to trespass on the spaces that people want to reserve for white women.īodies are often coded as appropriately “male” or appropriately “female” through a lens of racism and white supremacy. None of these are true, and it’s long overdue that people stop saying they are.” She is a non-transgender woman who produces more testosterone than some percentage of other non-transgender women.Īs Katrina Karkazis explained in a Guardian column in March, “Labeling women ‘biological males’ draws a dubious connection between sex, testosterone and athleticism that relies on long-discarded ideas that men and women can have a ‘true sex,’ that testosterone is a ‘male sex hormone’ and that testosterone is the key to superior athleticism. Many people reacting to the decision have mischaracterized Semenya’s identity, calling her transgender (she is not) or male (she is not).
