Call it upper-middle-class. They want for nothing. Greg's probably been practicing 35 years. 25-30 years of steady equity partnership (I assume he's equity and he's been working steadily - T&E lawyers are a pretty steady bunch) at a national law firm is an excellent living. And 25-30 years of a steady, excellent living creates a lot of assets.
They bought that house for $306,000 in 2001. It's likely long paid off, assuming he's reasonably prudent like I imagine. Actually surprised they didn't upgrade the house once the kids were teens - 3 baths is ugh for 6 people. But that they didn't suggests some prudence.
They probably have paid for all the kids' educations (grad included) but were likely smartly saving all along. Jazz probably got a scholarship of some sort, anyway.
Other than financing their kids and the occasional vacation (I hear about them taking them a lot less frequently than UMC in-tact couples with high school & college-aged kids and uninterrupted high-level work history that I know), what else? Jeannette's clearly not going to most expensive salon in town to get her hair done weekly. They don't need loans for anything...they're just amassing assets - and a couple extra hundred thousand dollars a season for X seasons doesn't hurt at all.
In all fairness, Jeanette is the batshit crazy type who doesn’t listen to anything she doesn’t want to hear, once she has made up her mind.Two doctors in the family and none of them could talk them out of giving their child experimental hormones and then cutting his dick off?
Who you think is giving children hormones and cutting their dicks and tits off?Two doctors in the family and none of them could talk them out of giving their child experimental hormones and then cutting his dick off?
He also says that he feels less dysphoric because there are cis women in his family hairier than him LOL. Press X to doubt.
Jeanette at one point said there were A LOT of doctors in the family, but the sex therapist in the family apparently carried more weight with her.Two doctors in the family and none of them could talk them out of giving their child experimental hormones and then cutting his dick off?
Those hairier women still look like women, though. What a cope.He also says that he feels less dysphoric because there are cis women in his family hairier than him LOL. Press X to doubt.
Harnaam Kaur is a great example of this. She's got a huge beard, but even with it if you look at her face, you still see "female".Those hairier women still look like women, though. What a cope.
To clarify, this is his friend Jojo who said this. Jojo is latino, and don't get me wrong, I've met a hairier-than-average Latina. But it's such a funny, shallow thought. Like, by making this comparison he is inherently admitting the difference between himself and a natal woman. But instead of reaching the conclusion that people are simply different, he somehow thinks this is reinforcement of his imagined womanhood.I could believe it. Most woman (especially from certain ethnicities) have some body hair after puberty. Jazz meanwhile went through... something else.
You realize Her Terfness is one of the wealthiest people on the planet right? Thats a hell of a standard to be called "rich". Jazzs family are millionaires. They put 4kids through college and the mom doesnt work. The dad is a literal jewish lawyer in florida doing high status work. They are wealthy.I said that they weren't hurting for money, but there's a big difference between JKR rich and retire to a condo in Boca Raton rich.
By that logic the age of consent should either be 14 for females, or 22 for males. Or maybe 16 for females and 20 for males at the same time. Or maybe im missing the point the article was making and girls can consent at 11 and boys at 15? Was this article in the NAMBLA quarterly, per chance?There's an article from an older issue of The Atlantic about why boys should start school a year later than girls.
According to the article, the female hippocampus, which governs emotional maturity and decision making, is mature at age 11, while in males, it doesn't mature until 15.
Really activates the almonds.
The real reason is bc a huge portion of them are niggas from the hood, and so they flex all their money away and they dont have anyone around them who is good with money or who has ever built wealth; there is no word for "accountant" in ebonics. On top of, depending on the sport they dont even have to go to college, and even the ones that do dont have to actually do any work, so even if they had multiple courses on how to manage money, it wouldnt really do any good.I vaguely remember watching a video by some finance/money-related YouTuber about the reason successful athletes end up in financial ruin when their high-paying careers end. They indulge in lavish custom mansions that they can't move out of because no one they can't find any buyers. The houses are expensive as hell and made explicitly to the initial owner's tastes.
Jazz's parents have already completely fucked him over physically, psychologically, and emotionally. At least they haven't completely fucked him over financially. Yet.

But I believe the biggest reason for boys’ classroom struggles is simply that male brains develop more slowly than female brains—or at least those parts of the brain that enable success in the classroom. The gaps in brain development are clearly visible around the age of 5, and they persist through elementary and middle school. (As Margaret Mead wrote of a classroom of middle schoolers: “You’d think you were in a group of very young women and little boys.”)
The brain-development trajectories of boys and girls diverge further, and most dramatically, as adolescence progresses—with the widest gaps around the age of 16 or 17. I hardly need to say that these are crucial years for educational achievement.
Adolescents are wired in a way that makes it hard to make good choices. As the joke goes, when we are young, we sneak out of bed to go to parties; when we get old, we sneak out of parties to go to bed. Laurence Steinberg, a neuroscientist and psychologist at Temple University, has shown how adolescence is essentially a battle between the sensation-seeking part of our brain (Go to the party! ) and the impulse-controlling part (I need to study tonight). During the teenage years, the sensation-seeking part is quite powerful. Our impulse control develops later.
The problem of self-regulation is much more severe for boys than for girls. Flooded with testosterone, which drives up dopamine activity, teenage boys are more inclined to take risks and seek short-term rewards than girls are. Meanwhile, the parts of the brain associated with impulse control, planning, and future orientation are mostly in the prefrontal cortex—the so-called CEO of the brain—which matures about two years later in boys than in girls.
Other relevant centers of the brain follow suit. The cerebellum, for example, plays a role in “emotional, cognitive, and regulatory capacities,” according to Gokcen Akyurek, an expert on executive functioning at Hacettepe University, in Turkey. It reaches full size at the age of 11 for girls, but not until age 15 for boys. Similarly, there are sex differences linked to the timing of puberty in the development of the hippocampus, a part of the brain that contributes to memory and learning.
But instead of reaching the conclusion that people are simply different, he somehow thinks this is reinforcement of his imagined womanhood.
Also not archiving bc it's just a whiny pooner but here's "Ezra" singing about the break upOK I'll take my puzzle pieces in advance.
I'm not archiving because this isn't highly relevant. But I spotted Sander liked this post. It's a TiM injecting a TiF with testosterone, and then she feeds him titty skittles (while a shitty acoustic Elvis cover plays):

So the trans guy is called Ezra. Yes, those are tattoo'd on mastectomy scars. Anyway Ezra is a trans man "musician"
Ezra is Bob The Drag Queen's throuple partner except they've been having an incredibly messy breakup. Like a highly visible, highly unpleasant breakup. More so than even normally messy people (which is what drag queens are). There appears to be an expectation to take sides amongst their friends, Bob vs Ezra.
Anyway, Bob is really good mates with Peppermint, so Sander (no doubt unthinkingly liking a "trans rights!" post) is actually highly contentious. I doubt we'll see anything but I'm willing to wager Peppermint will give him a bit of shit for this.
Sander is so good at optics![]()
