Honestly, having a period tracker on my phone has helped a lot with tracking this as I don't really have many physical symptoms yet, but my therapist suggested tracking as she noticed that "blue" pattern. Sure enough, every ~28-30 days I start feeling like shit, and having that knowledge in advance has helped a lot.

Ngl, given how much the average transfemme enjoys tech and building 40k minifigs, I think they would get some enthuastic volunteers. Hell, a lot of them will bring their own cages.

I think anti-communist education works much better when a.) the majority of people aren't suffering massively under capitalism and b.) when you don't have a collapsing "communist" nation across the pond with which to say "We told you so!". It's way easier to point to the wonders of capitalism when you see people pulling themselves out of poverty by working their 9-5 factory job and raising 4 kids on a single income, and much harder when that system is now making you finance a $5 burrito, with interest.

Could they just leave everything on there then? That would make things SO much easier.

That was awfully nice of him, but then why does he always he sew up the vagina too? Kind of a dick move.

Yeah, generally it just needs an update

Sadly it requires a prescription, but maybe you can find a really cool pharmacist that'll prescribe them to your puppygirl lol.

I mean, a big part is that we actively let them do it too. The evangelical movement wanted this from Israel, so they can try and end the world. They literally do not care about anything else, and anything that moves the needle closer to what they think will trigger the end-times is great for them.

Still is, honestly. We still use asbestos in a ton of stuff, but we're just generally a lot more careful about using it fortunately, and not doing as many open-air asbestos shoveling competitions upwind from the schoolyard.

Nick Shirley, the "Minnesota Somalian daycare fraud" guy. If you watch him talk, or do much of anything, it is pretty clear he's not particularly sharp.

I'm so, so fucking sick and tired of all the doomer shut-in fuckwits who think that we're going to fix this by doing a Jan 6 style raid on the White House. That's not how any of this works. I went to a No Kings protest. You want to know what happened before/after the "parade"? Thousands of people signed up to move our state towards ranked choice voting, information was given out on protecting your community from ICE, and people are getting resources to be more politically active. Literally every political advocacy org in my area has absolutely exploded and we're at a point where we're having to pause memberships because there are so many people trying to join.

Real change takes a bit of fucking time and I'm so, so, so sick and tired of all the people who act like no one is doing anything, while they themselves do fuck-all but doom scroll on Lemmy and post about how it's all over.

It's a boss battle, and bitching about how people are just dodge rolling and parrying and have barely chipped away at the health bar is absolutely asinine.
