years ago, I'd guess in 2000, an italian girl we were sharing a flat with was fucking the chief mechanic for yamaha, and invited us to brands hatch to watch the superbikes
the rider was australian, I've forgotten his name, but we sat in their garage on pit lane and saw all the prep and all the other teams doing their thing. In the first race he won, but flew off over the handlebars at the end of the straight in the next race, and he'd fucked his arm in some way. suddenly we were kicked out back to the great unwashed, I suspect because they were about to dope him up, as he competed in the final race, the tough bastard. Im not that into it, but they fucking fly when you see them up close, like they're sitting on rockets. the tv doesnt do it justice

I'll tell you what else I was thinking. Now i could be wrong, but I reckon swagatha christie is your sockpuppet
it's obviously an experienced b3tan, suddenly appearing a month ago but getting stuck into arguments right away
and
*has a pretentious literary username. a frustrated GSCE lit failure like yourself just couldn't resist it
*starts posting PC gone mad stuff that would get spectator readers in a tizzy like the vid below, which crucially, prufrock doesn't comment on. nobody else goes looking for that sort of stuff apart from the places prufrock haunts where they mock anything 'woke'
*uses prufock-like tired pretentious phrases like Quelle Surprise!
*prufock like amateur internet arguing like "no you're upset". you've even mimicked the basic format of a rejoinder I used against swagatha/prufock in the attempt above, but I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery to those without the wit to be original
*gets into an argument with me and loses. classic prufrock
*prufocks main account hasn't insulted me for a while, and I'd been making some conciliatory comments such that I was beginning to think he'd found some maturity and we could put his tedious obsession with me behind us. fat chance. Suddenly he's all triggered and yapping after I argue with swagatha

Speaking of anecdotes
Right, I'll tell you an anecdote! In 1975 I was catching the London train from Crewe station. It was very crowded, I found myself in a last-minute rush for the one remaining seat with a tall, good-looking man with collar-length hair, it was the seventies - buckaroo! When I sat down on the chair, I looked up and realised it was none other than Peter Purves! It was at the height of his Blue Peter fame! He said "You jammy bastard!" and quick as a flash, I replied, "Don't be blue, Peter!" Needless to say, I had the last laugh, now fuck off!

I used to crew the score board for the Isle of Man TT
- when I was a Scout, and when the score board was chalk and slate and analog clocks.
The noise was fucking intense. The smell was choking, especially for the classic races. The bikes were going past so fast you couldn't see the numbers.
We were a foot or so from the track, with a waist-high crash barrier between us death. You'd start this "volunteering" (it was close to mandatory) at about 9 years old. None of us were over 15.
Health and safety? Nah, child labour, tax haven laws and millions in tourist money .
I went back a few years ago: they give them ear plugs now and have a big perspex barrier between them and the bikes.
Still all crewed by kids though.

it was also that they'd be buried with both male and female grave goods
but anything else seems highly speculative, such as claims like "might have viewed them as non-binary". It's a rare find and probably signifies something about the period, but I don't think there's enough to build any reliable narrative in the absence of other evidence.
If I was taking a punt, I'd hazard that in those superstitious days in non-christian european societies, freakish people were often looked on as having something magical or spirit connected about them, and that might account for the high status position, rather than some sort of normalisation of transgender roles hitherto unevidenced. Although, there is observed anthropological evidence of acceptance of transgender roles in relatively more recent east siberian hunter gatherer societies, almost always taking a medicine man/woman type role, but a congolese pygmy is closer to finland than a chukchi reindeer herder as the crow flies. and speculation should never be more than a placeholder, as people often latch onto it when it suits their own wishful narrative

You're smuggling a lot in even there.
"Transgender roles" implies that our (sexist) intuitions about what is "proper" to which sex - and "gender" is nothing but that - and therefore about what is "transgender" by dint of defying those intuitions are both normal and normative. But I'm not sure that there's evidence for normality, and there's no basis at all for their normativity.

to be honest I can't remember what label they gave them, it probably wasn't transgender, it not being used at the time
But transgender roles as I've used it just means someone behaving as a trangender person does (i.e. dressing and acting like the opposite sex) I wouldn't read any more into it than that, unless you're trying make some other point.
I just remember years ago reading a book about some polish anthropologist still in the time of the czars, before their way of life was mostly wiped out, reporting on shamanism in the koryaks and chukchis and how male shaman dressed as woman and took on feminine behaviours (and even male partners if memory serves). She postulated that shamans might have been women in the past but men took over and adopted that gender behaviour, perhaps for it's traditional authority in their culture. It's a fair bit of different to some androgynous scot posting youtube vids, granted.
And I did say mine was speculation, I just think it's more likely than their take, which has a whiff of imposing modern values on quite a different time and culture

I dug up excerpts from the book by Czaplick. sounds quite like transgender if you ask me, albeit a quite culturally specific one:
Bogoras distinguishes various degrees of 'transformation' among the Chukchee:
1. The shaman, or the sick person at the bidding of a shaman, arranges and braids his hair like a woman.
2. The change of dress: Kimiqai, for instance, were woman's clothes by order of the spirits. In his youth he had been afflicted by in illness and had been greatly benefited by the change of dress. At the time described he was an elderly man with a beard, and had a wife and four children.[5]
3. The change in the habits of one sex is shown when the man 'throws away the rifle and the lance, the lasso of the reindeer herdman, and the harpoon of the seal-hunter, and takes to the needle and the skin-scraper '.[6] He learns the use of these quickly, because the 'spirits' help him all the time. Even his pronunciation changes from masculine to feminine. His body loses its masculine appearance, and he becomes shy.
4. In rare cases the 'soft man' begins to feel himself a woman; he seeks for a lover, and sometimes marries.
The marriage is performed with the usual rites, and the union is as durable as any other. The 'man' goes hunting and fishing, the 'woman' does domestic work. Bogoras thinks they cohabit modo Socratis, though they are sometimes said to have mistresses in secret and to produce children by them.[1] The wife does not, however, change her name, though the husband sometimes adds the name of his wife to his own.
Public opinion is always against them,[2] but as the transformed shamans are very dangerous, they are not opposed and no outward objections are raised. Each 'soft man' is supposed to have a special protector among the 'spirits', who is usually said to play the part of a supernatural husband, the 'kele-husband' of the 'transformed' one. This husband is supposed to be the real head of the family and to communicate his orders by means of his 'transformed' wife. The human husband, of course, has to execute these orders faithfully under fear of prompt punishment.[3]

What a load of utter
bobbins.
Gender identity is what historians call an 'actor's category.' This means that it can only be said to exist if there is positive evidence that the people of the time and place concerned both believed it to exist, and discussed their lives in these terms. There's no indication whatsoever that there was even such thing as gender at this time, let alone non-binary identity.
Sex on the other hand is a physiological category, not a cultural one. My guess is that this female was good at killing with swords, and was recognised as such by their fellow killing-with-swords brethren.

(, Tue 10 Aug 2021, 18:00, Reply)
Yes of course. But just as the progressive policies of 20 years ago are the conservative policies of today, some of us will still be less wrong than those clinging to the norms and values of the past.
I'm not saying they were gendered; the verbing of that term implies some kind of structural entity imparting gender, a concept that would not be in fashion for centuries. I'm saying that there were norms, values and expectations made of people on the basis of their sex, and that those who did not fit those roles were called queer, and perhaps burned at the stake, drowned in a river, crushed with rocks, pulled apart by horses, or all of the above.
I think the roles existed because of the universal(?) depiction of men and women having separate roles, use of gender pronouns, the existence of feminine/masculine words, and from a passing knowledge of literature and history. The division of the sexes comes up in a lot of origin myths and legends, for example.
The culture we find ourselves in evolved, no one generation's culture is radically different from that of their grandparents, and I think that rule probably holds over most of our history.
Culture ultimately emerges from biology, so the culture of our pre-human ancestors probably didn't radically change much either.
If women were thought of as property, they must have first been thought of as women. Their designation as property comes from their sexual identity.
The concept of woman is culturally loaded for us, and it would have been for our ancestors. We can point to that and describe it in terms of gender. They did not have the benefit of human and civil rights, science, freedom from religion, and magical technology to let them do that.
tl;dr: other ape cultures have roles based on sex/gender, we've probably been the same for a billion years.

'Queer' is a gender and/or sexuality-related term
it has nothing to do with physiological sex. 'Pointing' to the past and saying 'it was gendered' is hugely unhelpful in that it naturalizes values that should be understood as fluid. What if it turns out gender is just a completely unhelpful way of perceiving the world? We'd have to go over the whole of history and start again. If you're interested in understandinng the past on its own terms, you will appreciate that projecting present-day values onto it is a ridiculous thing to do. It's a sign of ideological inflexibility.
Also, I personally think that culture emerges from the interaction of biology with technology. So there.

Technology is an aspect of culture, IMO. I'm not sure how you could have technology arising without culture, but I can easily imagine culture without technology.
Physiology as it was understood then? Or as it's understood now? Surely it's unhelpful to project present day scientific norms, and it's better to accept that the world really was flat, epicycles were real, and that mice and flies spontaneously generated from inanimate matter. It's just ideological inflexibility to believe that physical, chemical and biological functions as we understand them today applied to people in the past. :eyeroll:
Yes, everything we think we know will be better explained later. We will always have to keep reappraising everything as more information comes in, just like we always have done.
Queer has your definition today, but as recently as a few decades ago it had a broader meaning. I'm using it in the broader sense to describe people who are ostracised or 'othered' for behaving outside of the norm. That's not limited to whatever equivalents of the LGBT+alphabet who were around at the time, it also includes women who thought they could do more in life than what their sex determined, and men who didn't belong in the roles assigned to them either, and of course people who we'd probably diagnose with all kinds of disorders today as well.

"the world really was flat" - to all intents and purposes, it was. Until long-distance navigation became a thing.
"epicycles were real" - again, they were actually real. The stars went around in little circles across the sky. Without the need to think of the world as a globe it made perfect sense.
"mice and flies spontaneously generated" - not quite. Flies, yes. If you looked very carefully, even the smallest pieces of food were full of worms.
I think you'll find that queer meant sexual deviant in the time you're referring to. Max Nordau is the reference point really. You have to realize that anything out of the ordinary was seen as a transgression of christian morality, not some kind of optional cultural novelty.

***Not in a fucking religious or spiritual way, obviously.

But this guy's back story is more interesting.
The skunk was startled, and sprayed its musk directly into Blood's eyes. As a result of this unfortunate incident, he suddenly acquired the ability to play the blues, and he became a faith healer.

hopefully he doesn't find out that his powers need refreshed from time to time

Quelle surprise! 'Nonbinary' bloke finally decides he isn't nonbinary after all.
There are two types of 'nonbinary' folk, in my opinion. Those who haven't yet fully figured out their own identity, and attention seekers. So there.

Well,
if they say "Those who haven't yet fully figured out their own identity, and attention seekers" and this person *has* now fully figured out their own identity, logically that would mean they are an attention seeker.

I had an idea once, which along with most of my ideas I'm too lazy to ever do much about
Which was a barebones flat screen with inbuilt processor, wifi and browser, probably linux for cost, that only offers a menu of hi-def webcam feeds. An alternative to a painting or wall picture. I mean people can do it on telly and computers, but something all packaged up and simple that you can give to grandma at christmas would have a bit of novelty about it

I know two people who've worked for PMI
Both of them have said that most of the company's spare cash is going into non-smoking products, and diversifying the portfolio to get out of cigarettes.
Of course, all that spare cash is coming in from fag sales, but they can see an end to cigarettes as a viable business.
And let's face it, the tobacco giants have been trying to diversify since the cancer connection was first identified. When my dad worked for Rizla in the 70s and 80s, they were constantly trying to get other products off the ground.

I think that's the vocal ripped from the original.
Either from an acapella or derived from subtracting the instrumental version from the original, or by simple DSP.

Ah yes I hadn't considered subtracting an instrumental.
But I imagine if you have one that makes it super easy. Anything else sounds like it must be hard, and involve painstaking time and effort to tweak. Surely no software can just do this almost automatically yet?
Well, however they do it, it's nice clean work and I'm impressed.

It's been a decade since I experimented with that sort of thing, but I think things like Melodyne are getting fairly close to automatic these days.
When I used them they required a lot of tweaking as they couldn't tell the difference between instruments, and sounds with frequencies in common could be mistaken as one sound by the AI, making it very hard to edit.
