What's playing, on SACD.

Caster Semenya can challenge World Athletics' discriminatory rules in court.

Under its leader HRH Sir Sebastian Coe, WA claims it can order women to change their chemical makeup to fit its western ideals of femininity.

WA also excludes trans women from its events, thus ensuring athletics is no longer a sport.

More on this in next month's music challenge, #TracksAndField.

@HangFireBooks But yeah it needs more nuance:

- Does the surface of the original have visible or audible damage that isn't just cleanable dirt?

- What's the source of the so-called #audiophile pressing - the poor digital remaster that brought the original to CD? The original #analog tape? The liars at #MoFi whose #DSD remasters still sound good and omg everything I believe in is a lie?

ALL things being equal, I'll take clean new #180g #vinyl over the original. If it's a remaster by a trustworthy source like, say, Analogue Productions, even more so - but I'll swap it into the original's jacket if I have it if the idiots who made the new one defiled the jacket with the UPC rather than putting it on its shrink/outer bag. Woe to my heirs who'll need to sort this mess out.

No vinyl for me today, playing from the NAS some The Police in DSD

And the last album of the evening, also on SACD. Now I'm caught up on listening to my recent vinyl and SACD record purchases.

Warum ist der Pocher da. 😔 #ibes #dsd

@britt seems interesting...

Another recommendation is checking out #DW's page with a feckton of free learning materials that is also reference for the #DSD #German language proficiency exam.

Personally I can't learn languages in a drab way like in schools - I need to immerse myself in said language...

Honestly, to my mind, the term 'DSD' meaning "differences of sexual development" is a redundant nonsense term.

The concept of 'sex' itself already supposedly describes differences in development (between male and female), so the term 'DSD' doesn't actually differentiate intersex conditions from non-intersex conditions!

VSD - variations of sexual development, is a slightly better term imo. Still a bit redundant but less pathologising than DSD.

Love triangle? Oh, you mean a Dorito.

@MarcoMadagaskar Den grünen Punkt finde ich tatsächlich auch besser, als einen grünen Haken. #DSD :)

Übrigens kann ich zur komplizierten Benutzung bei Twitter nur noch aus längst vergangenen Tagen berichten, weil ich mich dort schon vor über 5 Jahren abgemeldet habe. Das war mir too much neben FB und IG mit jeweils mehreren Accounts. Ich erhoffe mir hier mehr Zeit aufs Wesentliche konzentriert.
