That would be strange if Annisem literally wrote removed and then changed it to transexual later. Only reasons I can think of is that it was a bizarre attempt at trolling or they really did mean removed and then changed it because people thought it actually got removed. It's also possible they did originally write a different word such as the t slur which they changed to transexual after seeing that what they originally wrote got removed.
Kinda strange that world blocks that word. I'm on a queer instance and I can still see that word, in fact I don't think I have ever encountered any removed words on my instance.
I use obsidian for just text stuff I need to remember later. If I need to do math or need a diagram temporarily I prefer pencil and paper. If I want to save diagrams for later I have a drawing tablet that I use like a whiteboard so that I can save and use layers. If you don't have a drawing tablet Autodesk sketchbook is a decent substitute that can be used on your phone.
I think of my past self in a sympathetic way because my past self endured so much pain so that I can be happy today. I'd rather not think of my past self because I find it rather depressing so I generally avoid my past but I do recognize it's existence. Although my old self really just feels like a husk and not a real person. In addition a lot of my past is a blur so I don't remember much anyways.
I do keep old pictures so I can reminisce about the past if I feel like it. I generally feel bittersweet when looking at those old photos because I am reminded of how depressed I used to be but it also allows me to see how far I've come since then. Other things such as my deadname are entirely negative for me so that I something I have erased as best I can.
it feels like you are being lumped in with the worst of menkind for no good reason.
Before I realized I was trans I also got super upset at being lumped in with bad men (although with an additional different reason that I didn't understand at the time), and that feeling is absolutely terrible, because you're basically getting shit on just for existing.
From my perspective as a woman it seems like there are a lot of shitty dudes out there. After I realizing I'm trans it became a lot easier to notice misogyny since it now affects me. I did notice before, but when something affects you specifically you notice it a lot more. I also didn't fully understand how weak women are compared to men until I started taking estrogen. Just being near a man I don't know well or at all is very scary because of how easily he could overpower me.
If I am getting a random bear vs a random man I would definitely take the bear just because I feel like the risk of getting a bad man is too high. If I could pick a specific man, I definitely would pick my father or a friend because I know they are good men and I feel safe around them.
I think some outrage could have been avoided if the question was worded just a bit better, although I think part of why it got so popular is because of the outrage it caused.
I'm also ex-catholic. I left about 6 or 7 years ago, I don't remember exactly when. For most of those years I've been an atheist and didn't want anything to do with religion or spirituality at all.
Recently I have been thinking more about spirituality and I have looked into paganism a fair bit. Idk exactly what I am but I view nature and the universe with the same reverence that one would give to a diety, although I don't view them as being sentient or really personify them in any way, but I think there is something special about them and appreciating them satisfies me spirituality.
I heard someone else suggest she should get a porta potty and wheel it around the house of representatives on a pallet jack and be annoying as possible with it. That way she can still piss them off and not have to risk any danger using the men's room.
I was about to comment the same thing lol. Even the video game part.
Honestly though, I feel like there's a chance I wouldn't have been surprised cause I feel like I subconsciously knew back then but just didn't understand it or know the words to describe it.
First line describes it as gender critical... Then if you scroll down under the beliefs section is a section titled "Opposition to transgender rights movements"
I'm really hoping the American version of 4B stays far away from that.
I prefer this announcement instead. I like Nintendo games but hate the company for taking down emulators and sueing indie devs for a really dumb reason.
They finally have multiline app names in beta for the pixel... Idk why it's taking them so long. My old crusty motorola displays long names just fine; its crazy that it took until Android 15 just to get a beta of that.
There's an in development technology called in vitro gametogenesis (IVG) that would allow same sex couples as well as infertile people to have biological children. It's been in the works for over a decade and as far as I am aware has not yet been tested on humans.
Honestly graphics aren't really that important compared to the gameplay. Games such as those in the UFO 50 collection are a really good example of that. Also if you actually want a quality god vs satan game with old school graphics then I highly recommend Grimstone.
