I’m rushing to get my name legally changed so my updated passport can be correct. My current one has 5 more years, but so it’s all my amab info. I’m terrified of how little time is left.

Maybe you’ll survive, bunch of people will survive, but not a lot of the minorities the Republicans currently have in their crosshairs. Maybe you’ll find all the skeletons in the camps after however many years or decades it will take to defeat fascism.
I’m so sorry. But on the one hand, if you haven’t started anything yet, that’ll be less of a paper trail for you. I’ve been on hrt for a year, and I can only imagine they’ll try and ban the drugs entirely. I haven’t changed my name, but I have changed my gender marker. You’re losing time, time you’ll sadly never get back, but in my case, I will lose time, my meds, all the progress I’ve made. I… don’t know how to deal with this.
We sure do… I’ve been on hrt for over a year now, at least, so there’s that.
Me too. Although I’m not out yet. I’m thinking I’ll need to scramble, now, to put in my name/passport changes before I potentially lose the chance. Of course, I don’t pass, don’t have the wardrobe, makeup or body to pass. I wanted to wait a little longer before coming out, lose weight, fix my shit, you know. Don’t have the money to do anything, change anything how I want.
I feel ill. I wish I could go back to sleep, but I’m too wound up on fear and trepidation.
An abusive partner accusing the other of cheating is very often a projection of the fact they themselves had been cheating. Since they know they would cheat, and were/are, they either assume the other person is the same way, or simply don’t want to draw attention to their affair. It’s an awful thing.
You can be interested in politics without having to engage with the media machine and all it’s biases.
Projection or wrong thread?
People say this every time it happens, and AAA game developers have been putting out unfinished broken crap for exorbitant prices for well over a decade, now. Don’t preorder after starfield, don’t preorder after cyberpunk, don’t preorder after fallout 76, don’t preorder after anthem, don’t preorder after…
Oh wait, there’s a new game coming out soon, I should preorder, can’t wait to play it!
You’re still making them do something they didn’t consent to. They will still chew on bugs and small prey animals (when they get access to them, which isn’t often for indoor cats), because it’s etched into their behavior. They will take every opportunity they get. You can’t make a cat vegan, you can only force a cat on a vegan diet. Can’t you understand the qualitative difference there?
A person understands the reason they’re eating only plants with no animal byproducts. An animal doesn’t. An animal is just confused and irritated that their food was changed for the worse by their owner. If their diet and mountain of supplement pills/powders did not actually meet their dietary needs because it wasn’t an exact match for their regular food or natural prey, they would still end up malnourished. And not every cat’s dietary needs are the same or stay the same as they age.
Malnourished or not, you also wouldn’t be able to stop your cat from finding a mouse or insect which snuck into your home and devouring them to enhance their compromised diet. You cannot make a carnivore vegan, you can only abuse them into living in a way they do not naturally live and do not want to live, until they find a way to avoid you for just long enough to go against your wishes and savage another animal, as is their instinctive nature.
Furthermore, do you really think animals have no joy in what they eat, that that’s only a human quality? Nutrition doesn’t matter to the animal, they just want to eat what they want to eat. Cats almost never turn down an offer of cream or milk despite 90% or more of them being lactose intolerant. It’s not nutrients their body needs or can absorb, and actively makes them feel ill. But they want it anyway because it’s tasty and they aren’t able to consider the consequences of their actions as far in advance as humans can.
Edit: In fact, going off that same point but for humans, you could probably make a human live off some kind of tasteless nutrient bar that gives everything you could need, but it wouldn’t mean they’d enjoy it. Oh wait, we did do that before, as a cruel punishment for prisoners in the US, fucking nutraloaf!
They can’t eat all types of peanut butter. If a brand of peanut butter that contains xylitol is fed to a dog, it will make them sick and potentially kill them. Xylitol is used as an artificial sweetener, and is very toxic to dogs. Don’t ever feed your pets human food without checking what’s in the ingredients label.
A way of thinking that, when granted power, criminalizes every other way of thinking and discards freedom 100% of the time… That countries don’t actively do something to prevent its prevalence works like a crack in the foundation of the freedoms they enforce. I’d not suggest legalized contextual murder like this op is asking about, but a clear outlawing of an ideology that brings nooses and book burnings with it, definitely.
Yeah? So give up on this frivolous stuff and do… what exactly? Spend 10 years redirecting everyone’s efforts into building mausoleums and tombs so we can all hop in in 2034? What are the NASA guys, or the European space agency people, meant to do in relation to the climate crisis and looming extinction event? Rocket science isn’t biology, isn’t climate science (though launched satellites and the like do help with researching it), isn’t geopolitics.
You give me the same vibe as gamers whining about a game’s art team making assets for cosmetic dlcs instead of adding story content or fixing game bugs or something, when they literally cannot do anything about those other things because it’s outside their jurisdiction.
It’s gotta be a copypasta, the format seems very similar to that one about TES Oblivion, with the person asking for rumors at a bar and being told a guy went missing in the mountains or whatever. Been a while since I loaded up a stalker game, but the “it’s encrypted so don’t go snooping” bit I think is actual game dialog, no random person would say this.
I’m happy for you. I was born in a red state that doesn’t allow changing info on a birth certificate. I only lived there for 10 months as an infant, and in a blue state the rest of my life. So it will never be changed, the M will stare back at me and out me to the upcoming government if I ever need to use it.
