Proven Wrong By History (Part 2)

Question

“The telephone has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us.” ——Western Union internal memo, 1876

“Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible.”——Physicist Lord Kelvin, President, Royal Society, 1895

“Aero planes are interesting toys but of no military value.”——Marshall Foch, Professor of Strategy

“Man won’t fly for a thousand years.”——Wilbur Wright to his brother, 1901

“The bomb will never explode. I am saying this as an expert on the subject.”——Admiral Daniel Kearny advising President Truman during the American atom bomb project, 1945

Well, Elo, you wanted more technology stuff. Does this satisfy?

Answer 1

It definitely satisfies. Even more interesting how one of the pioneers of flying didn’t even believe that anyone would fly.

Answer 2

Looks like that bomb got dropped on Daniel.

Answer 3

I'm not even a technology lover but this is really cool.

- Dino (he/they)

Comments

how can you identify as a he and a they??

just wondering not hating

---

Dino used to be female, then became a she/they, then a they (correct me if I'm wrong, mate), then a he/they.

As for your actual question, I think they just don't believe in their parts or something. I'm not entirely sure.

I love when people ask questions! :)

Pronouns don't define gender. I made a post on it earlier titled "Pronouns | Dinos Blog".

Basically people can use which ever pronouns they want. You can be a girl and use he/him if you wanted.

I'm nonbinary, so neither a boy nor a girl. But that doesn't mean I only have t use they/them. I like he/him pronouns too. I put them next to my sign-off so I don't get misgendered, because I have in the past (not on purpose).

Whichever pronouns make you comfortable are 100% okay. Also thanks for asking! :)

Wait, so you can use (7264826846374782/114968264956244859)? Because that’s really genius!

---

If you can use numbers as pronouns, I'd be 1/4 for no reason at all.

@DukeSilver

You've got it correct, Duke. I am AFAB, or assigned female at birth. Basically meaning that when I popped out of the womb, I was assigned the female gender, and I have female parts as well. I went from she/her to she/they to she/he/they to just he/they. I also put my pronouns in my sign-off to make sure I don't get misgendered :)

so i could be 1234 bc i want to?

so you just belive that you just accidenty had female parts and that just happened?

still not hating just asking @duke i am talking to other people

By the way, welcome back, blueZswagger!

---

Well, Blue, you still have my same questions about this topic at least.

---

Well, you have to have either female or male parts to reproduce (if you wanted to), because we can't continue as a species if that didn't happen.

But if you don't feel either, and you don't want a child, you identify as something else. That doesn't mean your biology changes, I agree, but it only matters about how they spiritually feel.
