Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Or he possibly been outstanding at basketball as a male. He certainly had the genes and role model. He could have had a blast in college with women constantly after him. Maybe even more.
Instead his selfish mom wanted him to be a “trophy tranny child”. These people don’t give a shit about their own children. I’m sadly becoming less shocked that people don’t care about child trafficking.

Glenn Beck said this years ago. They have the technology and when backed into a corner, will sink to unimaginable depths to protect themselves.
I haven't voted for a politician since I voted for Perot. MAGA
Ok, been in ortho for 20 years, happens all the time. Again many reasons but 90% of the time it is rehab. You also may have overdone your rehab and caused more scar tissue to build up. You also may have had previous knee surgeries and already had a crap ton of scar tissue built up. My father had bilateral manipulations mainly due to the insane amount of knee surgeries he had done due to football.

I’m voting in the Dem primary for shits and giggles. Other than that I’m local only. Our state elections are rigged
All she’s missing is the Eiffel Tower tat in the middle.
I read a paper a few years ago on how i was worse for certain ethnicities due to the amount and locations of one of the enzymes that split the spike protein at the furin cleavage site. The inserted furin cleavage site (FCS) is a huge part of what took a bat virus and made it able to infect humans easily. Certain ethnicities have an enzyme TMPRSS2 in greater quantity in conjunction wth the ACE2 receptor (or it just functions better) which is where the virus binds to get into the cell. (The two cellular membrane proteins - TMPRSS2 and Spike - are expressed in greater quantities in lung cells in general) TMPRSS2 then cleaves the FCS on the spike protein allowing the virus to enter the cell.
In other words, I don’t think the virus was created to infect certain ethnicities. The FCS insertion was a requirement for human infection/pathogenesis with this type of virus, but certain ethnicities happen to have the ability to get more virus into their cells more rapidly.
