Days without cis nonsense: zero internet-delenda-est

Dutch darts star Noa-Lynn van Leuven, who had previously lost to Fallon Sherrock, eked out victories in both women's and open competitions in the past week, becoming the first woman to do so.

Several people, including a former tennis player have said it was unfair, although failing to come up with any good reason. Two of van Leuven's teammates have left, apparently upset with not losing. One dart player complained about "transgenders" in the sport, but assured us that they were good blokes, don't worry.

Fallon Sherrock has not commented on the matter, saving herself from the fate of Bethany Hamilton.

I propose we all follow me in continuing to not care about darts. It sounds like 50% of competitive darts players were included in the story so far. Fallon, van Leuven, and the other 2 darts players should go have a beer. They can care about darts and the rest of us will simply watch some other slop.
