Honestly curious and hoping for serious replies:

What do trans people think about the possibility of a child or preteen “getting it wrong”? Ie, maturing into an adult that realizes/decides that they actually want to live out their life as initially assigned at birth?

Note: I know so little that I’m actually not sure if this question itself is massively offensive or not…if so, sincere apologies. Just want to learn more about this and stop imagining things!

I work with a nonprofit that works closely with children in this circumstance, and yes, it does make a huge difference to the individuals involved.

Having it be understood and acknowledged that this is something we are going through, and not who we are gives a healthy framing for families to lift themselves up…and not be “homeless people.”

It’s actually someone experiencing homelessness.

The (good, imho) reason is that “homeless” can quickly become a defining label when used to describe an individual, when what we are after is really just a description of someone’s current circumstance.

So the new wording is simply more accurate.

It’s just the rise of loud, groupthink edgelords, refusing to think past a hyper-emotional brainwash.

My understanding is that even after Hiroshima, the Imperial Army attempted a coup to avoid surrender.

The Japanese were not stopping. The only alternative at hand was a full invasion, which would have killed many, many more.

Ha! Didn’t even. Sad face.

Teamwork!

Good luck. You’re going to get nothing but “popular = bad” here.

But correct?

What do you think hamas is committed to?

Some great advice here already! So I’m going to suggest something novel:

Consider “settling,” just a tiny bit. What I mean is, don’t be so quick to assess someone new as A Partner…potential or otherwise. Try letting gals in who are attractive enough and carry themselves well, seem sane, easy going, smart, etc. Shared values, that sort of thing. A female friend with potential, if you will. See where it goes; be open to being surprised, pleasantly or otherwise.

I’ve seen so many younger men “auditioning” mates with unrealistic expectations about “clicking” or “just knowing” — and winding up as older bachelors who have never even had a chance to practice being in a relationship.

Yes, like literally anything else worth doing/having, it takes practice!

Unless your tap water is unusually, ridiculously pure, please at least use filtered water. Snorting bacteria directly into your sinuses can end very badly.

Wil Ferrell + RHCP drummer = so much this.

Fucktard

The sniper is ready.

I think the flaw here is seeking validation from anonymous strangers..?

There’s also my press, “my pleasure,” or “glad I could help !” (If I mean it!)

Praying that Tyson floors him, but it’s a performance, not a fight.

…Unless Tyson has an oopsie.

;)

Even while people are alive, a huge proportion of our full experience of them involves expectations, assumptions, recollection, expectation…in addition to direct interaction.

Post-life, we mist remove the direct interaction, but the rest remains. Talk away!

The disproportionate representation of hyper-reactive, hive-mind edgelords is vomitous, but overall entertaining and cool.

But the suicide part … that confirmed as well?

Honestly don’t know, just surprised to read that.
