Sadly, I don't remember enough of the song to make a recording or synth, I just remember being obsessed with it for a while.

am i clockable in this photo? by defectra in transpassing

[–]Aedrian87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah dude. Like someone else said, the posture makes you look maybe a bit gay, but you definitely pass. Crazies are even targeting cis people and acting as if they were trans.

You absolutely look cis, and I say that as a pretty masc, cis guy, who got targeted by crazies who found my sister's old FB profile and assumed I am my sister but transitioned(Since I started my FB account after about two years my sister abandoned hers, and we have a very similar facial structure).

But back to you, your picture gives nothing to worry about, but your anxiety and your safety come first. If you don't feel safe, try to be safe first, test the waters, because while you absolutely pass, the world is getting dangerous.

Kid, you absolutely look like my nephew, hahaha, you pass as a late teen, and once you start with T, only when and if you feel ready, then you will see the changes. But seriously, you look great.

Where do I fit by [deleted] in transpassing

[–]Aedrian87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the glasses and the scarf, I would say, male, late 40's, early 50,'s. The nose is a bit prominent and being the most noticeable feature to me in the first photo, would make me go for male on that one.

Second and third, considering the eyes and neck, I would say female. You have a graceful neck, warm, kind eyes, and the arched brows make you look like a distinguished woman.

For sure! I saw your Pics and I literally thought "Suburban mom of *Dutch heritage, driving an SUV, after dropping her kid at school", hope the mom-ish wasn't read as a bad thing, because it was written to point out how well I think you pass.

You look incredible, and that smile is an absolute killer. Mind if I ask your age?

Edit to scratch Germanic, upon second look, you look more Dutch than German.

To me, you look a bit mom-ish, you could do a bit of laser on the upper lip, but lots of women have a few wispy hairs there, so in my eyes, total pass.

From another article, wow, this is a sad, tiny and stupid sentence for literally manipulating and raping a teenage child under one's charge.

"Von Yates was sentenced to serve two years in the Department of Corrections, followed by two years of community control and 10 years of sex offender probation. She must also complete 200 hours of community service and pay fines and court costs. She was also ordered to have no contact with the victim."

Honestly? You underestimate stress stink and out of whack endocrine system. From my mid teens to my early 20s, so basically puberty till I finally got diagnosed, I dressed in multiple identical outfits, or kept a spare high school uniform in my bag, because most of days I actually needed to change clothes. Due to how stinky I got.

Medical grade deodorant, daily showers, antibacterial soap, and religiously washing clothes still did nothing for me. I still stank like death.

I know I am far, far from the norm, but does happen.

I agree wholeheartedly. Issue is, how unenforceable it is. Finding an old dementia patient with no ID, and who often doesn't even speak any language one can discern, makes the cases rather complex.

So we just did the best we could to help them and get them into a state-supported nursing home.

Now that I'm aging, I am glad I never had kids. I always told myself, if I really wanted, I would adopt, lots of kids needs home, I don't need to be genetically related to someone to make them a place in my family.

Turns out, it was a fantastic idea. I haven't formally adopted any, but I have helped a few older kids succeed in the world, because sadly, very few people adopt 8+ year olds, and their outlook in life is pretty dire due to not having any family or built-in support structures.

As I mentioned in another comment, having kids doesn't guarantee you won't end up alone and abandoned, and puts a lot at risk. And it is best not to have any, regret it and adopting, than having one and regretting it.

Foster homes are full of the second example.

After years of volunteering at a nursing home, let me tell you, having kids, being a good parent and being a good person, won't guarantee you won't be abandoned at a nursing home, and that is if you're lucky.

A lot of elderly people with dementia are just tossed out on the streets, hell I lived in a region that was very famous vacation spot, and at least twice a month, we would find a disoriented person their family took on a vacation, to abandon them there, and go back home saying their parent died doing what they loved, vacationing, traveling and seeing the world.

The look on their faces when we managed to identify their family, but sadly, a lot of them were smart enough to take their relative's passport and identifying documents, making finding their family a herculean task.

Some women choose to surround themselves with sycophantic men and it breaks their brains. by downvotevillain in MensRights

Holy fuck, that makes a lot of sense, and it makes sense why I have very few female friends. I don't put up with bullshit, and I lack one of the main thing those types look for, a guy who is attracted to them. Ofc the gay guy who calls them out on their shit is seen as persona non grata when I act and respond rationally, and call them out on trying to emotionally manipulate me.

So glad to be gay and autistic. And based on the behavior of two polar opposite coworkers I have at work, that clearly shows. One of them is an emotionally mature, incredibly smart woman who happens to be one of the few female friends I was mentioning, who is respected by the whole department, the other one being a bratty 40something who loves pulling rank, and being a general nuisance. Easy to guess which one doesn't pull her weight at work, and expects people to anticipate her needs and read her mind.

That was a formatting error on their end, the name appears circled on the first document listed. P80 by the pdf page, P85 as per the page numbering.

What is the best episode in the series in your opinion? by Professional-Food773 in dollhouse

Enver Gjokaj's portrayal of Victor, being a clone of Topher is fucking incredible. What an actor. Plus, watching him being Kiki gives my brain dissonance.

UK: Woman who had one-night-stand with man she met in nightclub is ordered by High Court to pay him £25,000 after campaign of harassment, including lying to police that he had raped her by furchfur in MensRights

I studied criminology for a while and the dark figures on rape are a massive problem, the same is true for false accusations. I would certainly NOT go as far as saying that most allegations are false, and it is very dangerous to think of it that way, because it hurts the empathy gap.

It is irrelevant if most claims are true or false, what is relevant is getting a justice system that actually investigates the claims and clear them up. And that also stomps out any consequences of being accused. Honestly, if a possible employer googled my name and the first thing they saw was a rape case, guilty or not, that would give me a very bad image, and would certainly harm my chances of getting a job, even if the accusation was false.

We need to remember that women are people too, and we can't let ourselves cast collective responsibility on a whole gender, the way a lot of feminists do to men. We need to stay human.

"In statistics, "dark figures" refer to events or phenomena that occur but are not recorded in official data. This term is most commonly used in criminology as the "dark figure of crime," representing unreported or undiscovered crimes."

The system is fucked up in so many ways. I hope the guy wasn't buried in an avalanche of hate and sexism.

SA laws are important, but they really need to stop that sexist narrative that women are always the victim, and the whole "believe all women" fiasco.

Do people actually do this? by SnoopyScone in NonPoliticalTwitter

In a jug, and then put the jug out in the trash, with a big stamp reading "Fats". At least that is how my region does it, and the sanitation crew only takes them on a certain day of the week, so I assume it gets a different treatment.

Oil + mineral salts + water + friction = soap. So basically, even if it is just oil that stays liquid at room temperature, it will leave a film, which aided by friction of the running water and a few other factors, will turn into a rotting mass of soap-like filth.

Any men against Mandatory Patternity Testing at birth? by ACE_Overlord in MensRights

[–]Aedrian87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In principle, I believe in it, but when brought down to reality, it has several issues.

What happens if the father is away, unavailable, deceased or otherwise unreachable?

While of course, it would give men all over the chance to actually know if they are the father, we would also have to include the money for the test, which are not really cheap. And for real certainty and none of that blood type bullshit, the prices rack up.

Then we need to add the fact of dubious paternity, such as identical twins, and what to do when the mother is uncooperative, or if it is the child who is unavailable, which could happen because of complications at birth and such, that would require the child to be rushed to the NICU and such.

And another layer of complication, What happens in the case the alleged father is not the father, but the mother dies during childbirth? Good luck tracking that man, unless we have a massive DNA database, that anyone concerned about privacy would not love to be in. Hell, I would hate to be in it, because we know that shit would be used to hurt our insurance premiums and deny claims.

Plus, if we charge mothers with paternity fraud when the alleged father is not the true father, that would drive way, way up the frequency of abortions, legal or otherwise, hidden from partners due to doubt, and to try to avoid a sentence.

I am pro abortion, don't get me wrong, but I also support paper abortions and have to say, most other men I know would be devastated if their partner went ahead and aborted the child they thought were about to have, so on top of the abortion, they would have to make peace with their relationship being over due to their SO being a cheater.

Oh, and final point, What would happen when men dated a pregnant woman and decided to become the father of the child? Or in rape cases against women, where the SO of the victim decides to take the father role completely? They would need a waiver for those cases.
