This was supposed to be propaganda against him? I finished that paragraph thinking he sounded like a cool person to keep fighting for those things despite his poor financial situation. People gotta be pretty messed up to think that sounded like anything other than praise.
Would be nice if there was term that lumped in those who sexually abuse minors directly (regardless of the person’s attractions) and those who consume CSAM that wasn’t simultaneously the term to describe the sexual or romantic attraction to children. But any attempt at trying to separate the two frequently seems to be portrayed as somehow defending those who abuse children or some similar baseless accusation.
Still agree with the intended message of Ilhan (although perhaps execution is perhaps to forgiving to those involved with Epstein).
Anyone who is afraid of talking about this issue is gonna do jack-shit about ICE. They’re just gonna keep giving them more and more funding and act surprised when they do they same things they’ve been doing, but now with more agents and more weapons.
How will they ever get a veto-proof majority if they never have a vote before elections to show which ones who are against basic human rights?
If you cycle regularly though, you’re probably more prepared to deal with the push and pulls from the air of a large vehicle passing (which they can still surely feel, even if they don’t have to deal with maintaining their balance) and better at maintaining your line. Someone who just never cycles would probably have a lot harder time dealing with both of those so the bus would need to pass further away to make it equivalent, but then you wouldn’t really get that effect of having a wall right next to them. Either way is missing part of the experience.
The biggest dangers are people turning and they’re far more likely to ignore people on sidewalks or underestimate how fast the bike it going. Sidewalks on stroads are not safer than riding in the lane. Its multiple times more dangerous to be on the sidewalk.
Yup. Watched that one many of times.
Doesn’t look familiar
Don’t think I’ve heard of Brink.
Any delivery options? $10/week in tips still is far cheaper than a car insurance alone. Of course picking out better produce is an advantage of in-person.
So its not allowed on planes, but only barely?
Sorry, I biked through there a couple times while singing. Its pretty bad, so I don’t blame them.

Except when you ask it for the meaning of an acronym and they say something with totally different letters. Yet people treat it as a source on something they know so little about that they cannot possibly tell it its just spitting out nonsense.
We wouldn’t deny a diabetic insulin because we think they would benefit from therapy, and we might think a doctor who does that should have their license revoked.
Yeah. Was thinking medical malpractice already describes people who try to deny people access to HRT because reading:
I didn’t end up getting a therapist, at the end of the session he revealed that I had “earned” my estrogen prescription … He was also really creepy and spent a lot of time touching his stethoscope to my breasts, but at an angle where it wouldn’t help him actually listen to anything - really bizarre (no doctor has ever done this or “used” a stethoscope that way), and after he seemed to finish the exam, he then he went back to my breasts again.
There was a lot that happened in that session. I wouldn’t be surprised if he sexually preyed on his patients, and it seemed like some of his behavior was similar to sexual grooming I have witnessed in the past (like guilting me into sitting closer to him, and telling me he was treating me nice because I was being nice to him, etc.).
WTF? I don’t think I’ve had a doctor touch my breasts with a stethoscope (granted, I’ve only had one visit since having them where that would have been a concern). I wonder how often doctors take advantage of their positions to be able to do things like this…
My CPAP machine app blocks screenshotting on my phone. I’ve never seen anything prevent screenshotting on desktop and blocking copy/paste is often circumvented easy by just looking at the source. But it would be enough to probably limit how many people do such.
that said, I recently went to a new endo, and at first he told me he wasn’t going to prescribe me estrogen until I have established care with a therapist because “you doubled your risk of suicide by choosing to transition” (which … is factually false, besides being problematic for other reasons)
this was someone explicitly listed as an informed consent provider, but he pretended like he wouldn’t give me estrogen
I guess I can see why he thinks he’s informed consent if the reason he wants patients to have therapy isn’t to prove they are trans but instead to ensure they are getting help with all of the stresses on being trans in a transphobic society? And just using E as the carrot to motivate people to get care they probably should get regardless.
Regardless, glad where I went was truly a IC clinic and didn’t do any sort of gatekeeping. Still haven’t seen therapist. I don’t think such gatekeeping would have gotten me to see one either.
despite the fact that I fully pass as a woman and I’m post-op … my body doesn’t produce sex hormones, I rely on this for my literal physical health - my bones and joints will deteriorate without sex hormones.
Wild that you had that happen despite the obvious need of it. Wonder if he’d have given you T without therapy…
Makes since you would want to verify that popular artists are uploading their own work rather than other people.
Was Terraria 1.4.5. Granted, I’m spoiled by magic storage and so I wanna wait for tmodloader to update, so hoping that happens this year. I think I picked it up in 2015, so that’s basically on release (2011).
Also hoping for a major Dyson Sphere Program update that isn’t just optimization (although that’s probably more exciting than an actual content update). But the last one initially was teased over 2 years ago I think (and was interrupted because performance update became a higher priority)? If it doesn’t release this year, I’ll just wait to play through again til it does.
Don’t know of any actual new releases that I’m just dying to play and even if I was, I’d probably wait a few years to get it on sale unless its a sub-$5 game (I might get Two Tired to Mountain at release because of that).
Na, I just use Bazzite currently. Have used zorin and Mint as my primary OS before, but haven’t even tried arch. Could I interest you in our Lord and Savior, the bicycle, though?
Note: not the person you were asking.
What meaningful change do you think they’re gonna make other than simply not voting on funding at all?
