it would help if you could clarify what you mean by wobbly or buzzy … maybe some examples of songs or segments that have the sound you’re describing?

is this song wobbly or buzzy?

Might also x-post to !dadforaminute@lemmy.world if you don’t get responses here.

yeah, I think it might have been an oversight - after acquisitions there is a lot of chaos and sometimes there are periods where HR is disrupted and things slip through the cracks. In this case, the software that manages your information allowed me to change from my residential address to a PO box and no one ever brought it up.

I work for a corporate multinational conglomerate that very much is not laissez faire 😅

I use my passport and social security for ID, neither have my residential address on them. It’s only on my state-issued driver’s license, which I don’t use for ID.

I gave my employer my PO box address, that’s what they have.

and also that you don’t have to give away the location of where you live to everyone who needs to send you mail or a package …, including your employer

I guess the stageists were right, liberalism always does come next. (\s)

Yet they don’t revoke the use of puberty blockers for cis children with precocious puberty, they only are concerned about the lack of data for trans kids - it’s motivated by transphobia, not actual clinical concerns.

Trans kids aren’t having poor outcomes from gender affirming care, quite the opposite actually - and the “we don’t have enough data” argument is a false concern used to plausibly deny a more than sufficiently demonstrated clinically safe and effective treatment.

EDIT: might be interested in reading: https://whatweknow.inequality.cornell.edu/topics/lgbt-equality/what-does-the-scholarly-research-say-about-the-well-being-of-transgender-people/

We should be clear, the medical establishment is not woke (quite the contrary, actually) nor is every single major medical association recommending gender affirming care for trans youth on ideological grounds or because they have been forced to by some LGBT+ lobbying, but because the evidence we have points to that care being life saving and effective while also being low risk and in the case of puberty blockers even reversible.

EDIT2: you should also know the Cass Review has been found to be biased in its recommendations, e.g. this demand for high evidence in the case of trans care but not other areas of care have been pointed out as motivated by prejudice, might be worth reading more about the criticisms of the Cass Review:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cass_Review#Reception_by_academics_and_researchers

Several scholars and organisations have criticised the Cass Review’s conclusions and the evidence base used to support them. Researchers Cal Horton and Ruth Pearce have said of the Cass Review, “its most controversial recommendations are based on prejudice rather than evidence”. Cal Horton criticised the Interim Report and other documents for prioritising research on aetiology of trans identities, saying: “Research into the causation of trans identities has a pathologized history, running parallel to efforts to prevent or cure transness.” Cal Horton also criticised the Interim Report’s support of exploratory therapy and its use of the terminology of “desistance”.

Various scholars also criticised the emphasis on high and moderate quality evidence, saying that paediatric care often relies on low quality evidence in other areas; that in downgrading qualitative research, the patient voice was minimised; and that the highest quality evidence (such as from randomised controlled trials) may be difficult or unethical to obtain in this area.

Forcing trans kids to undergo the wrong puberty under the demands double-blind trials is as wrong as forcing a cis child to undergo the wrong puberty for the same purpose (like David Reimer was forced to), it’s an unreasonable expectation given the clinical context of the treatment being so low risk and the outcomes being so positive.

oh that’s awesome - and I can now confirm too, I clicked !WomensStuff@lazysoci.al from the Voyager App and it took me to the new community just fine:

ah, as far as I know Voyager doesn’t support PieFed yet, only Lemmy - so you might have to use a different app that supports both, or use the web. Sorry for the inconvenience - hopefully Voyager will support PieFed soon 🤞

Are you accessing the link through a Lemmy app like Voyager, or through a web browser?

this is a vibe, lol

I would probably match it with a light pink or light tan tank top and then a very colorful and flowy floral or tropical wrap, oh and I have some pink Birks that would go well with this, too.

I buy a lot of my clothes from Pact, esp. undies and bras - I like that most of their stuff is cotton and they are so eco-focused. Not sure it’s strictly brand loyalty, but in practice I don’t buy those things elsewhere.

having a public block list would be great, tbh - ublock origin does something similar with maintained filter lists, for example

I was wondering what places are better - Tumblr maybe? Reddit and Lemmy seem both similarly male dominated, and I agree with JohnnyFlapHoleSeed that internet communities in general are male dominated and not friendly to women …

I support moving to Blahaj as well ✅

Pros:

• only upvotes (no more harassment through downvotes)
• Ada has already banned lots of bad actors from the instance, so moderation will be easier
• Blahaj’s community and instance is already women friendly

Cons:

• there is probably some work to move another instance (I’m not sure what that would take - or if we would just shutter the lazysoci.al community and start a new one on Blahaj?)
• Ada’s rules can be pretty strict, which means we might lose some control over moderation decisions and discretion; you could view this as a pro or con, part of the reason Blahaj is so welcoming and such a good option is because of Ada’s strictness - I only bring it up because of the 196 drama that happened recently where the mods of that community felt they didn’t align fully with Ada’s approach - so that’s just something to get clear on, what are the expectations, and are we comfortable with those expectations
• Blahaj defederates from some instances and likewise some instances have defederated from Blahaj, so that might impact our users a little bit (again, this could be a pro depending on how you feel about the instances that are defederated from one another; I suspect Hexbear users who like this community would be upset if we moved to Blahaj, because Hexbear defederated from Blahaj).

yeah, unfortunately that’s true these days; if a trans person uses the term “transsexual” I assume the person is probably a gatekeeping asshole, but it’s a huge red flag coming from a cis person - same with terms like hermaphrodite and transvestite.

honestly, anytime someone is wearing a cross or mentions they are Christian or religious, I assume they are unsafe and likely have some kind of bigoted views. To be fair, I think most people are bigoted to some extent, we can hardly escape the acculturation that comes from growing up and living in a society that has heteronormativity baked into it.

I know for sure that not all Christians or religious folks are anti-LGBT+, but where I live it’s fairly predictive that if someone is religious they’re also more likely to be conservative and have reactionary views on topics like science (e.g. more likely to be creationists, anti-vaxxers, etc.), gay rights, trans rights, etc.
