Better Off Ted is just so good. Only 2 seasons but tbh I doubt they could have kept the pace past maybe a third season anyway. As much as I want more it’s kinda nice it burned brightly and shortly

School actually, only 10 minutes late 💪

Fuck I’m literally doing this right now

Looking like how my grandpa looked shortly before he died. Granted I’ve said that before and the bastard is still here but here’s to hoping it goes through this time

Salt!

This it?

I went way north, all the way to northern Sweden. Only way I’m going back to the US is if they come and kidnap me. I lived in Seattle before this and people were still threatening to kill me for being trans. People where I live now I have to explain to them the danger I felt in the US and the most common reaction is “why would anyone care that you’re trans?”. There are so many safer places than the US

I didn’t find proper social groups for me until I was like 30. It’s very difficult for me to socialize and it’s something I’ve had to put a lot of active work into. Not everyone finds what they’re looking for out of college, a lot of people don’t know what they’re even looking for until later. It can be lonely sometimes but like most things it is a skill you can improve on.

Until recently I was living in a city so depending where you live ymmv on this advice: For me I found my groups by going to lots of events. Even if I didn’t think I would like them. Regularly checking for cheap local concerts, meetups I’d hear about, if I saw any posters I’d take a picture and put it in my calendar. I’d say 80% of the time I learned I didn’t actually like the thing but it would get me talking to people. From there I could ask about similar events and if one of them sounded closer to what I wanted I’d go to that.

You really have to put yourself out there and be ready to walk up to people and just start talking (but also be ready to exit the conversation if it isn’t going well). It’s awkward and nerve wracking but you’ll slowly either get better or find those rare gems that love it when some rando shows up and can’t stop sweating while talking about Morrowind or whatever. If you’re like me it can help to bring a prop sometimes. I solve Rubik’s cubes. So if I’m not feeling like I can approach anyone I can sit near people and just solve that for a while and someone will get curious sooner or later and ask me about it which opens a conversation.

So a couple things, do you have a link where I can read up on the history of betweener labor because now I’m curious? But secondly what are you talking about? What this post or the comments implies anything to do with race? I don’t understand where you’re getting that from

Thank you me too! And I’m only a week in but so far I’m crushing it at school. Been having a great time here everyone is so kind and I don’t have to worry about things like getting killed for using public bathrooms!

I totally forgot to start doing this again. Just moved from the US to a tiny town in Sweden, I’ll play my part!

The articles for windows 10 aren’t going to be great either once the security updates stop

Edit I can’t read you’re using the longer supported version

This is a very real social aspect that can make it hard to quit for some people. I legitimately felt left out at a lot of things when I quit drinking because everyone was getting wild drinks and people would get excited for each other’s choices, trying sips and whatnot. Then I’d be like yay I have water. Mocktails helped provide me with some of the social excitement while I was still easing out of drinking being a main part of socializing for me

Them costing as much as an actual cocktail though is absolutely criminal. They were so expensive in Seattle $18-22 isn’t even satire

They really shine for things you want big pieces of garlic but not to be power blasted by garlic flavor. Like pico de gallo, or my favorite is sliced and shallow fried to turn them into chips

If I knew then everything I know now, the pain, the emotional turmoil, having to discover my body on my own, how incredibly frustrating it is to feel useless during recovery, I’d still have done it. Even if I didn’t know I’d have as positive an outcome as I have had I’d still have taken that chance. My body was so wrong to me I was going to end up dead if it wasn’t changed. Everything is better now I’m so happy to have the body I do

My favorite part about Chicago being elitist over ketchup is that they add vinegar, sweetness, and tomato to their dogs. If only there was a way to get all that in a single condiment lol

Seattle makes the best dog I’ll die on that hill. Cream cheese, onion, sauerkraut (all optional), an enormous array of do it yourself condiments, and some stoned dude who won’t judge you for having preferences

Sure does work, and here you go my hole story: https://lemmy.zip/post/39222527

I was able to discuss desired outcomes but there’s no guarantee on these things. Plus the first surgery is more about getting everything in place and functional then people can go in later to pretty it up if that’s wanted. From what I experienced each surgeon has really specific skills and you shop based on that then let the chosen one go to town on the bits. The things I was most invested in had more to do with certain functionality than looks so that’s where my discussions were focused. Now that I’m here though I wouldn’t change a thing I think having a camel toe from hell is hilarious so it gets to stay

Damn wish I could find something like this. I’m mtf post surgery. For whatever reason my doctor blessed me with a camel toe big enough to punch time cards

To the downvotes: Can’t even joke about my own body lol, lmao even. If I had to choose to fight either a real camel or my disembodied camel toe I’d choose the real camel, and if you ever get the chance to see me in pussy hugging clothes you’d make the same choice

For real holy shit. For the same reason it’s important to have journalists in war zones, this needs documented so people can see what’s happening. We absolutely can not let fascists be the source of truth for what’s happening out there.

Plus idk about this situation, but at least when I was in Seattle SPD would immediate behave somewhat better when I would start obviously filming them harassing someone.
