Never found the right balance. 🤷 I said "fuck it" anyway, because there's a few reasons being less feminine is more comfortable for me. I like lifting weights but hate a sweaty scalp, so bye bye hair. I like the fit of men's shirts more. And I realized that there's a lot clothes and accessories that I find pretty to look at, but I don't really get anything from wearing them.

It sucks because customers and family both make rude comments, but at least my clothes are comfy.

None at the moment. Hammer away at job application til I realize it's an hour after bedtime and I need to eat dinner.

Too feminine: weak, controllable

Not feminine at all: ugly troll, clearly failed at being feminine and this is just cope

My cat has been a little antsy as I've been working so much but we still get our walkies in most days. I was SO happy yesterday because a neighbor kid asked to pet her, and Shirley let her. She's skittish around strangers but I told the kid let Shirley sniff her hand first and she did. Kid was very gentle. I was impressed with both of them by the end of it.

Whatever temperature the apartment ends up at 🥲 My cat won't sleep with the windows closed (insane behavior), and I'm not running heat or air with them open.

My ideal is 68°F or around 20°C, but kitty gets whatever she wants.

Never saw them in person, but man, I wanted a pair as a kid. I wanted to roll around at the speed of sound.

I'm a lesbian, I'm not changing my label to pan because I've dated trans women. Most people who feel attraction feel it before even learning what genitals the other person was born with.

Sure, but a cis man could also be dating a trans woman in any of these scenarios, and no one would say "heterosexuality" was what was preventing him from becoming a dad.

When people joke about lesbianism = no pregnancy, it's because they're assuming all lesbian relationships are between the same kinds of bodies having the same kind of sex.

I think there is such a thing as lazy, but it's when you push your responsibilities off onto another person solely because you can get away with it. The ex who leaves the dishes dirty and tells you, "I don't know, they just come better when you wash them", for instance.

I'm an auncle to two beautiful children. I like dogs the same way I like my niece and nephew: I want to spoil them and play with them and give them back to their families at the end of the day!

I'm definitely more of a cat person, although even my current cat is a little demanding for me. She meows and meows anytime she's not out on a leash.

I'm assuming CGI or something. They don't immediately read as AI to me. I don't see any torn/fuzzy edges, and while the shape of the bookshelf is obviously whimsical, it's not the sort of nonsense perspective I associate with AI.

I could be wrong of course, I just don't see the usual tells.

The "insult to life itself" quote was about an animation that was supposed to be creepy, but reminded him of how his disabled friend moved, wasn't it? I thought it was about the art actually, albeit unintentionally, directly insulting someone.

No money to invest. Passport too expensive, plus possibly unusable as a trans person.

Fuck it we ball, basically.

Meh. If you're the sort of person who cares, you probably stopped using TikTok when they started sucking up to Trump. If you still use it, you probably support Amazon, too.

I dunno, I have a sibling I've never met because they were kidnapped before I was born. Teaching a kid to be safe doesn't give them the ability to overpower adults.

I think when they get a little older you obviously need to stop tracking them, but I also don't think it's bad to want to know where your little kids are.

I do think it's bad to use an app that has their full names and pictures, though. That's common sense.

If people are actually protesting, of course I don't consider it a joke. I just thought the one in February 5th was a joke, everyone was guilt tripping me for asking questions but refused to answer them.

Three different start times, two different addresses, and everyone pretending there's a signal chat just feels like a trick.

50501 didn't turn out to be a prank? My state's "organizer" was a deleted reddit post with no other contact info, the posters named three different start times, and only two people claimed to have links to the signal chat and stopped replying when I asked for it, even though they offered.

I visited the subreddit three days before it was supposed to take place, and they were still figuring out basics. One of the top posts was discussing the dress code (consensus seemed to be wearing blue + American flag scarfs), and the one person pointing out how impractical and dangerous that was for a protest was getting downvoted.

Thats the reason I'm not protesting, btw. One protest in my area and it seemed like either a joke, a honeypot, or like a teenager came up with it.

Two very different answers here 😛

There are a lot of people who would rush me to the hospital but also voted to take away my rights and worse. I don't know if I believe in good people these days.
