I have been sexually and physically harassed multiple times in my life.
Threats of violence and sexual violence have been common occurrences in my life.
I’m glad you haven’t had to experience that.
Yeah, had no idea what it was from but the time frame adds up.
There was an American show called Ed, Edd, and Eddy where there was a slightly queer coded kid named Jimmy who brings a quiche to the cul-de-sac picnic and gets made fun of by the Eastern European coded “Foreign Kid” for cursing the picnic with a cursed food.
Always wondered why they chose quiche.
The crazy fuck actually did it. They Must’ve seen that John Oliver episode where they did a man on the street segment about privacy and everyone was like “I got nothing to hide” until their private information was replaced in questions as “your dick pics” at which point everyone started questioning it all of a sudden.
Thank you for sharing!
So, do they have these tasks performed every hour and redundant elsewhere or was this just bad planning a la “write the directions to make a PB&J” homework assignment?
The end user experience for your website would be terrible and inconsistent, phones don’t have the kind of uptime and availability that you would need, and keeping them plugged in 24/7 in a closet doing computational tasks is a good way to end up with battery bulge and one spicy mini pillow.
There are too many nefarious purposes that could benefit from being able to serve public web services from your smartphone and no consumer benefits that average people would care about.
Fortunately it doesn’t matter what I want to allow and is up to the cellular service providers which have all kinds of stipulations about what constitutes as service abuse and using an inordinate amount of bandwidth is usually one of them.
So for security safety and service stability reasons, yeah, there is no legitimate reason why it SHOULD be allowed. Just spend the $5 monthly on the hardware and bandwidth instead of potentially making your neighbors cell data worse or setting your house on fire/ blowing up your closet just so you can have an unconventional web server.
Sorry about that. Self love comes from within too. Everybody’s road to self acceptance is different. I started mine about three years ago when I took way too many shrooms and had a mind blowing experience where I realized I hated my body, but didn’t really understand why, so I spent an unknown amount of time coming up with things I appreciate about my body, like my muscle memory when typing or other small things. It sent me on a long journey that led me to discover why I have had such a strong disconnect with myself.
I don’t necessarily suggest you do that yourself, as you can really Fuck up your psyche, and you don’t really get to choose what lesson you’ll learn or what kind of experience you’ll have.
Ideally an individual would be able to experience that guided by a mental health professional for safety and to keep you focused on something productive.
I hope you can find some things to appreciate about yourself, because the things you focus on are the things that will drive you or drag you, and we can be our own hardest critic.

Well, thank you for giving me a good little rabbit hole of research to fall down.
This is probably the worst industry to try to research anything on. A lot of the products that aren't big names appear to be Amazon rebrand scams. If you take the high review counts and search back through the reviews, they were all stuff like pens, and charging bricks, and other random items until early this year.
"reputable" brands tend to host their own blogs with reviews, and the other kinds of reviews seem to be sponsored as well.
This could be the signs of a new industry trying to bootstrap itself to gain traction on products that could be revolutionary in the way people groom themselves, or it could just be an elaborate grift in a market that uses emotional manipulation and societal pressure to make easy sales on disposable one off fad products (although I don't think that is 100% true, as at home IPL has been shown effective, if not as effective as marketers would like to claim).
I have a lot of experience (at least compared to the average US consumer) with Chinese Manufacturing and Industry, the nature of Chinese Copyright, and the positives and negatives that adds to the generic products category of consumer goods. I've always been a DIY punk and anarchist type and my interests have taken me from small engines to electronics and everything in between. If you know how to look with the right knowledge set, you can find some real diamonds in the rough, but most of the time that category of goods tends to cut costs in ways that severely impact the integrity or safety of the product, so you have to be careful when sourcing third party replacement parts or cheap thumb drives as an example. I don't mind buying a Chinese product from a "no name" company but it raises flags for me when they try to hide it and get a jump start on their product reviews, so here I am, broke AF and trying to do a cost benefit analysis on vaguely specc'd products among a gamut of price points.
I think for myself, I want either the Ulike sapphire air 3 still or I may gamble on a cheaper product like whatever this one is trying to call itself and after I have time to save up some money here and there do more research to the options available and hopefully as the industry matures I'll be able to buy a nicer/ more effective, however you want to think of it, solution.
I wonder if there is enough of an audience to be like the trans-femme version of Technology Connections and just do deep dive video essays on things as they pique my (and others) interests?
Thank you, for sharing your experiences. I’ve been looking into at home IPL, and I know the technology has changed a lot since they were basically as seen on TV scam products and everyone said to stay away, but the #sponsored nature of most reviews had me skeptical.
Edit: I’ve been looking at the Ulike Sapphire Air3 myself, but I’m not seeing any hard specs or data on the devices and their output, so it’s hard to gauge if one is “more powerful” than the other.
Edit 2: the Iluminage TOUCH seems to be approved for a wider range of skin tones and hair colors, it MAY be better suited to applications where “more power” may be needed?
I know about the world not being very accepting for us. I live in the Deep Southern US and am about to leave a (shit tier) job, because a young transmasc asked about everyone’s thoughts on transgender bathroom rights when the manager came back and told us under no circumstances are we allowed to talk about it. I checked back later that day and they had taken the time to remove the google LGBT friendly emblem on their google overview.
Young transmasc never came back and they intentionally didn’t fill the position, didn’t compensate for the extra labor, cut everyone’s hours, canceled linen service, got a truck delivery denied for non-payment, and the lists just go on.
I should’ve noped out when the bathroom thing happened, but I was still doing the Stockholm Syndrome thing.
I gave that place countless hours off the clock to keep it a float. After that I stopped. Didn’t even take a month for the place to be overrun with roaches and for our waste to go through the roof.
Good riddance to bad garbage.
I hope they enjoy their inbreed redneck clientele that thinks they are a bunch of price gougers for charging 80$ for a 3 lb tomahawk steak.
They’ll get everything they deserved plus some.

Absolutely, there shouldn’t be anything to stop those individuals from serving on their own volition.
It was 2006-2007 I was a really big 9/11 truther, any time people would talk about a draft I used to rebut “I don’t want to go there, and I want to die anyways, go ahead and give me a gun and force me to go, let’s see how many Americans I can kill with sabotage and a rampage.”
It blows my mind that we still have people who think a conscription effort would be anything but detrimental.
Speaking of, anyone else notice the semantic propaganda that is the word draft/ conscript? Our enemies are evil and they conscript their men to fight in pointless wars, but we on the other hand draft our young heroes to selflessly serve their country.
