I think you could do this elsewhere. The only change outside of legal briefs is to put all this sort of stuff in footnotes, rather than inline.

Grammatically, "rather than" opposes "change" to "thrive", but entirely within the context of "look at what we need." It doesn't preclude change itself--just the focus on change.

...that quote doesn't say "never change." It says that "look[ing] at what we need to thrive" is a "more likely" way to change, rather than trying to "look at what we need to...change."

Well one obvious reason is that they're more likely than cis people to be able to contrast actual lived experiences. Also, is it "always"? Or are you just identifying it here?

Useless? It still tells me that the US-made masks I bought from a reputable manufacturer aren't up to spec. Eliminating the ones that fail regardless of fit is extremely helpful.

But that's exactly the distinction that matters. Treating the services one has received as a debt implies that one must pay back that debt and is free of any other obligation. In reality, as you're pointing out, we're all con

Sure, but the comment said it was borrowed into English from Old French, which was accurate. The point of the comment was that the borrowing wasn't directly from Latin (with a b) but indirectly from Old French (without a b). No one was

"Too many to list"? It's a pandemic simulation--there aren't that many variables to manipulate. And misinformation was already a huge talking point several years ago, after the 2016 election and the Mueller report. Say
