Do you know a lot of girls with PCOS who are being bullied to the point of violence? Because that's exactly what happened to the trans girl I grew up with 30 years ago. Long before she ever said she was a girl or presented as a girl in public. When she just "looked like" an effeminate little boy, another child wrapped her scarf around her neck and around a piece of playground equipment and started pulling her off the ground by her throat.
You know why? Because she was wearing a glittery purple scarf. And you know what the school administration did about it? Not one fucking thing. Her mother and my mother had to go on a crusade to even get the incident acknowledged.
Yeah, I wonder why trans kids have such high suicide rates. It's not magic, you ignorant FART. You're part of the problem driving these kids to experience high suicide rates.

There was a running joke over on that other site that there is really only one Nebelung cat, and it's actually a transdimensional creature that can appear in many times and places at once. And that's why all Nebelungs look exactly alike lol
Both companies I work for use Okta for 2fa AND also force us to change our passwords every 90 days, resulting in us using weak, easy to remember passwords. It's security theater.
I dunno, cats are so individual. One of mine loves this ball-in-circle toy so much, she'll play with it for hours on and off. My other one wants ME to play, no matter what toy it is.
I think you have to just try different things and see what they like most. Maybe try a catnip stuffed toy?
I also find that they are just like humans and the things they like most are whatever is new. So I buy them like one new toy a couple times a year. It's almost Christmas; I'll get them a new toy as a gift haha
Puberty blockers only with social transition until age 18 are the standard of care given to the trans girl I grew up with 30 years ago. She didn't start exogenous hormones or surgery until she was a legal adult. None of this is new and the people you're listening to are literally just making things up.
Oh sorry, I thought you were talking about current taxes, not a hypothetical future wealth tax. Of course a wealth tax should exempt one primary owner occupied property until sold.
Sorry, I didn't say that clearly. What I mean is you have to remember to use the damn HSA card when you go to buy Tylenol instead of your normal payment method. This is...where I tend to fail lol
Nothing at all bad happened to the two German journalists who published the Panama Papers. Bastian Obermayer and Frederik Obermaier are both very much alive and well, and have started a nonprofit organization in honor of their friend and colleague, Daphne Caruana Galizia, who was murdered by an operative of the Maltese government officials who she was investigating for corruption that was revealed in the Panama Papers.
The investigations and revelations produced by The Daphne Project are ongoing. These are journalists who refuse to be silenced by one woman's murder.
But to understand that, you'd have to be interested in not being ignorant for five seconds instead of just parroting things you saw online because you think it makes you sound smart.
I faced this exact scenario. I bought my house in Nov 2019 - right before the giant pandemic price increase. It's gained $200,000 in value and my property taxes went up by $200/month. Which at my income level is not an absurd burden.
I don't think we should have owner occupied exemptions on property tax, and I'm happy to pay my share of that tax to keep my city functioning. I DO think we should have burdensome sales/transfer taxes on non-occupying owners.
Sign up for a health savings account and USE IT. (United States specific advice.)
It lowers your taxable income. The only caveat is you have to remember to use that money to buy things you were already going to buy anyway. Convenient hack to know what you can and can't use: Doordash now labels HSA-eligible items at CVS. You don't have to actually use Doordash to see which items you can buy with your HSA card.
I will second this. YouTube can teach you step by step how to cut your own hair. I've been doing it for years, and currently have a fancy asymmetrical one side buzzed cut that I do myself. The learning curve is going to result in you looking awkward a couple of times, but the amount of time and money saved over the years is tremendous.
Physical therapists have definitely taught me reparative exercises that I would never in a million years have thought of on my own. PT is a god damned miracle drug.
Sorry I was only addressing the reasoning behind paramedics being allowed to administer ketamine in the field and not other drugs. And reviewing this case, I don't see any indication for haloperidol either. They should not have drugged this person at all:
But we should have teams of psychiatric professionals who are qualified to administer things like haloperidol responding to emergency calls that are specifically stated to be for psychiatric crises. I don't really want random paramedics in charge of choosing when to administer haloperidol, which can have significant and permanent side effects even after one dose.
