Speaking as someone who continues to be under a section 504 in school, for those who dont know: A 504 document tells teachers and staff the needs of a student if their needs are atypical. This, for me, means breaks from class to prevent ant/or minimize panic attacks. For my friends who have undergone surgery, it means allowing them to use our schools elevators to move from level to level. It also means that they have passing period offset by a certain amount of time so the kids who use crutches or wheelchairs aren't run over in our massive school. A LOT of kids have 504s. My 504 coordinator and the work we've done for my 504 document have changed my life. I have gone from panic attacks almost daily in the middle of my class because of months overdue assignments, to being able to take breaks and consult with my teachers so we understand eachother better. Panic attacks daily, to once every few weeks. Chronic absence over said panic attacks leading to incomplete work, to turning in an assignment late every once in a while and only for my hardest classes. If you are not currently in a school with a 504, do not try to downplay their positive effect. This was a vital part of my progress in the development of my mental health, my self-image, and my (now positive) world view. It fills in the gaps that may be left by an uncaring and unyielding school system and workload.
Around the start of middle school or a little earlier I saw a counselor at one of my summer camps and just looked at his eyes. I was incredibly confused and intimidated by the feeling of attraction and questioned why the hell I was feeling this unique emotion towards men. At the time I understood myself to be a guy (definitely not anymore lol but I'm not willing to do the argument over how "gender" is created) and it took me a WHILE to figure out... fuck.... that was attraction. Does anyone else feel that theyre attracted to one gender in a very different way from another? That was a source of tension for me when I was figuring out my sexuality.
Can you elaborate on what specifically bothered you? I didn't notice anything when I read it but it was a good while ago

Used to use boost and then switched to Joey back on Reddit. I tried Connect at first on Lemmy, but it just kept crashing any time I scrolled far down. Switched to Liftoff for a while but had some issues with the way it manages accounts and I kept seeing the same posts over and over. Now I'm on Jerboa and I've had no issues with accounts, memory, or it not being customizable enough.
pardon?
do note that voting is still very important in the US the president has power to appoint supreme court justices and those same justices are also the ones that can override terrible laws such as those in florida against trans healthcare its possible to take direct action and also do what you can to minimize harm through voting <3
