I like the change. Both more inclusive and more exact.

“(your) right To swing your fist ends just where my nose begins”

Exactly, If you care so much transplant it into your uterus.

Hard dissagree. It’s wrong in Nebraska, wrong in Germany, and wrong everywhere else where the standard is some date before birth.

For the record, she was, probably, past that. My wife was born at 20 weeks, over three decades ago.

What’s the problem with 28 weeks?

Yes, it’s clear that there must be a cutoff date. Personally, I like the biblical standard: baby’s first breath.

Agree that rent control on it’s own can be counter productive. Section 8 is good as a wealth transfer, and making it into an entitlement would be better still as a transition to housing as a human right. I think about housing much like I think about healthcare. The market can still exist and compete with the government provided option, they just have to compete with free.

Finally, some good, fucking, news.

Why would you be faking it?

What evidence do you have that you are trans?

What evidence do you have that you are cis?

Do you want to be trans?

Those are the starting questions?

I talk like that in real life.

I play a lot of table top role playing games, so maybe that’s why, but we exist.

Your mother is saying nonsense. My mom knew I liked girls when I was 4. She thought that was normal, because I’m a trans woman, but it was obvious even then.

I’m sorry. You don’t deserve invalidation. You deserve affirmation. You don’t owe your mother anything, but it’s possible that your dad or a grandparent can be an ally for you with the rest of the family.

How can you tell them? I don’t know. “Hey, I have something important to tell you.” Will probably force the issue.

You don’t have to come out, but if you want to, that’s how I would start.

Maybe. I can only suggest you try to be the best sibling you can be. Keep that as your north star and you shouldn’t go too far wrong.

“data scrapers are making our site unusable!”

Peoceeds to pre emptively make the site unusable.

Ok, so, you have first part down, give yourself chances to meet new people.

Next, it gets harder. Be nice, be interesting. Be funny, helpful, some combination of the above to give people you interact with positive memories/feelings for you. If you can swing it, be physically attractive. Do your makeup, wear nice clothes, etc. All this is just to get a good vibe.

Next you need time. Someone you have met three times who was nice and dresses well is an acquaintance. Someone you have been gaming/book grouping/camping with for the past 3 years who is nice and funny is a friend. Consistency is key.

Finally, if you have doubts, ask yourself the question: “would a friend act like this?” This goes for both you and them. If they call you up at 2AM because their car broke down, a friend would go help them.

If they invite you to do hard drugs on a work-night, they are not acting like friends, they are acting like addicts, and going out with them might be fun, but it will hurt you, and friends don’t hurt their friends.

Friends don’t always take and never give. So bring drinks to the meetup, but also don’t be the only person that always brings the drinks. Etc etc, details depend on your circumstances.

I hope this helps someone.

Behind the bastards is pretty well known, and while not explicitly anarchist, the host, Robert Evans, expresses consistently anarchist sentiments. He was involved in Chaz/Chop, and covered the Portland BLM protests extensively. He also made a trip to Rohava to report on the Kurdish breakaway area during the Syrian Civil War.

I like the change.

I’m so confused.

Hey Sarah. It’s OK to be she/her for a bit. I hope you settle down with what makes you happy.

Not all anarchists are worth celebrating.
