nutomic is one of the founders of the Lemmy project, so that's probably not going to happen.

The entire scene is an act of violence.

Jesus Christ. There needed to be way more punctuation in that image text.

I think it might speak to other parents who are not accepting? Like it shows that someone who also thought like them was open to having their mind changed. They might be more willing to listen to her story.

Update: I found the original article. It's very light on details and only mentions there was a time some years ago where Tamzin struggled with accepting her son's identity. Still, it's nice (to me, anyway) to see a positive development arc.

Jesus Christ, I swear some people just sit and wait for any cute picture of a pitbull so they can pounce and make "rip someone's face off" comments.

This is a community for cute pictures/stories. Please don't push your dog breed alarmism here.

Do you know you're being disingenuous?

Straight people aren't being murdered for being straight.

None of your points are examples of how it's dangerous to be straight.

If not friend, why friend shaped?

Is this community just going to become about schadenfreude? Because if so that's fine, but it's not what I'm looking for and I'd rather unsubscribe.

First of all, I understand this concern and empathise. I am a very private person and also have a high level of distrust for centralised systems and beaurocracy.

It depends on how much you trust your therapist. You could ask them not to transcribe the portion of your session where you talk about politics. Also, it's possible that the notes your therapist makes will not contain specific details of what you talk about, and instead be observations about what concerns you, and why you feel concerned.

At the very least, I would suggest asking your therapist the same question you've asked here: how can you be open and honest when you have these concerns? Your therapist may be able to address these concerns to your satisfaction. And if you don't feel comfortable or safe asking your therapist this, then this might be a sign that your therapist hasn't earned your trust (yet).

Snippets of songs. They go round and around in my head.

Oh yeah I fully agree, it throws multiple peoples under the bus. The thing is, trying to argue about biology with them is almost pointless because the proponents of this anti-trans rhetoric don't actually care about what they call "biological facts". The fact that they have based a legal ruling on a premise that is widely understood to be mistaken shows this.

They just want to punch down and punish the people whose mere existence challenges their preconceptions.

So much about this judement is so distressingly wrong.

Trans women are women. Trans men are men.
