I’m scared. I cant pay attention worth a damn at work today so I’m replying here.

Im going to a queer event tomorrow with lots of friends, but i know were all freaked out. I live in a progressive pocket of a deep red state.

I dont know what to do with myself. If tmrw goes well, relief and celebration.

If not? Fuck. I truly dont know.

Tasha Yar knew what was up. Data can get it, goth makeup or not

100%. I’m struggling to find language for just how fucking weird that was.

Its like they’re worshipping the wrath they feel as divinely justified? He even addresses how openly cruel it sounds by claiming ‘he loves us’!?

Lets not forget the turbo-pedo-misogyny, either. That was fetishistic as hell.

What. The. Fuck.

Ive read that one in three people is affected by incestuous sexual activity. Thank you for talking about something millions of people suffer from but too few speak about.

You’re doing a good job.

Also, kids generally don’t do stuff like that for no reason. Hurt people hurt people.

Yes, i have a sleep disorder and when i have trouble, i listen to podcasts on my phone with it under my pillow. Its slightly muffled and very effective, but if it doesn’t work at least i dont have that awful tired eye feeling

The electric chair built in 1912 - Its fine tho, they tested it in Sept!

Smdh. Absolutely barbaric.

Everytime i test a battery like this, my wife just shakes her head and reminds me that I’m definitely from Kentucky lol

I grew up in Kentucky and dressed as Pocahontas when the movie came out, but nobody painted any kids face and blackface was definitely known & not okay.

We even learned some very questionable ‘heritage not hate’ bullshit, but blackface would not fly by the late 90s.

Okay, i happen to actually have narcolepsy & be gender nc, and have a trans partner, i feel like i can speak with some authority on this.

Gender affirming surgery can be the opposite of health care

Every surgery can be, but gender affirming care is one of the least regretted surgeries in existence. By opening this way, you frame the argument as different for trans healthcare. Its not.

We’re also not children. Dont infantilize trans people. We have the same right to make choices others don’t understand, just like cis folks can.

And narcolepsy is a chronic inability to get delta wave sleep. Extra sleep is absolutely treatment. I can see what your getting at, but you’re choosing examples you don’t understand and misinforming people.

So I’ll never not have the feeling of a credit card being slid through my brain when i have a headache for the rest of my life, cool

The ambient panic is a bit louder now.

I cannot recommend basic yoga enough for wonky balance.

I have terrible proprioception, i run into corners and bump my shoulders constantly (even though im a smallish person and it makes no sense). Yoga made it easier to close my eyes in the shower, catch my balance, not sprain my joints, so much within a few months from like, 20 min twice a week. Free youtube videos. I’ve saved myself from serious injury more than once.

No argument that she’s from the wealth & privilege class

But you don’t become the biggest pop star ever with a completely healthy upbringing, either, right?
