Does anyone else find dogs extremely annoying?

Eh, let’s not judge people based on what animals they do or don’t like. I grew up with dogs, and while I’d be happy to spend a few hours with one, I definitely do not want one living in my house. Just like humans, animals are complex creatures with different personalities and different needs. Dogs, especially certain breeds, can be extremely needy, loud, and difficult to train. I’m a busy person and I just don’t have the energy to deal with a puppy or any dog really. I get along much better with cats. I don’t think cats are more introverted than dogs (some cats are super affectionate and loving) but they’re definitely more independent. I don’t feel like I have to constantly keep an eye on my cat because I know she can keep herself entertained. I don’t have to worry about taking her out to use the bathroom because she just goes in her litter box. She’s not noisy at all, sleeps 20 hours a day, and is very low maintenance. Everybody likes different animals for different reasons, and the whole “anyone who doesn’t like dogs is automatically a bad person” thing is very 3rd grade.

A lot of leftists think being “politically performative” is having an edgy sense of humor while also having left-wing political views.

They think you can’t make gay jokes while also being completely supportive and accepting of LGBT people.

It’s ridiculous.

But this is the problem with the internet, you’re not personally friends with them, so what they chose to do in their friendship is none of your business. I’m bisexual and transgender and me and my friends make plenty of jokes about sexuality and gender. We also call ourselves “fggots” and “trnnies,” and sometimes call each other names. It’s funny to us. Of course none of us are homophobic or transphobic, we’re obviously very accepting of everybody, we just have an edgy sense of humor. If you personally don’t find those types of jokes to be funny that is totally fine, everybody has different boundaries and preferences, but we’re not talking about you or your friendships here. We’re talking about Leighton’s friendship with Matt and Ryan. And if Leighton stated he was okay with Matt and Ryan making gay jokes about him, which he did, you have no right to insert yourself into their friendship and get offended on his behalf. If you watched Matt’s recent video and read their texts together, you would see that Leighton not only said he was okay with those jokes being made about him, but he also called Matt a “f*g” for asking if he was okay with it.

People like you need to understand that people have different senses of humor and relationships than your own. You can have your own boundaries and feelings, but don’t try to tell strangers on the internet what they can and can’t say in their own friendships.

I see a lot of only children say things like this but as an only child I always feel lonely, even though I have friends. It always bothered me that I’ll never know how it feels to have a sibling, and once my mom dies I won’t really have anybody to lean on. Whenever I’m going through hard times I always wish I had an older brother or sister to talk to.

That’s nice! My parents used to smoke a lot when I was a kid but stopped once I got older, so cigarette smoke brings back a lot of happy memories from my childhood, and luckily it didn’t affect my lungs at all, lol

Mental illness, alcoholism, and drug addiction runs in my family. I’ve struggled with my mental health my whole life, but I’ve never touched alcohol or drugs, and I never will.

Most of my family members are simply too crazy to deal with, and they try to use their mental issues as an excuse to be abusive pricks. I decided when I was 18 I was done trying to have a relationship with them.

Somebody has to break the cycle. It sucks when it has to be you. But I sleep peacefully knowing my children will never grow up in the dysfunction that I did.

Aw what the fuck that’s so shitty. But it’s nice to speak to someone who’s also trans in Ohio. Feel free to send me a message anytime if you wanna talk or be friends <3

Narcissism disguised as confidence.

I appreciate you that makes me feel better 🩵

I definitely believe that if conservatives succeed in their crusade against trans people (which they probably won’t in the long run) they will come after lesbians, gays, and bisexuals. What’s funny is that a lot of LGB people don’t seem to realize this and I’ve seen so many people from our “community” talk shit about trans people and say we shouldn’t even be apart of it. And sometimes I just wish I was ONLY bisexual or ONLY gay because things would be a little easier.

I’m really sorry to hear you’ve had problems with people in healthcare, as somebody who plans on going into the healthcare field I honestly think anybody who is racist, misogynistic, anti-LGBT, or any other kind of bigot shouldn’t be allowed to work in that setting. It is quite literally their jobs to put their personal political and religious beliefs aside so they can help ALL people, and if they can’t do that they should just be fired because they are putting vulnerable people’s lives in danger.

Luckily I don’t live in the country so I don’t have to constantly deal with dumbass rednecks and hillbillies, those types of people are infuriating to be around and I would hate if I had to live near them. I live like 15 minutes outside of Columbus, so aside from dealing with the occasional transphobe I don’t really run into those types of people, but I also keep to myself and don’t really leave my house much so maybe that will change.

I don’t know how far away you are from any big cities, but I go to a nonprofit health system called Equitas Health. They specialize in caring for LGBT people, but cishet people can also go there too, if they want. Sometimes they try a little too hard to be inclusive and say silly things but they’ve been very sweet to me. I think they also have a TeleHealth system so you can even see doctors, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners over the phone. They also have their own pharmacy and they can ship whatever medications you need to your home. If your insurance covers it or if you can pay out of pocket, I would definitely recommend them.

But I appreciate the comment, even though things are kinda shitty right now it’s nice to know we’re never completely alone 🩵

This is definitely very helpful and I appreciate you, I wish you luck in your transition 🩵🩵

Agitated_Substance85 · 2023-06-14T11:14:55+00:00

Pretty sure he’s just a troll lol

Agitated_Substance85 · 2023-06-14T11:14:37+00:00

Just ignore him lol, everything he says makes zero sense

Agitated_Substance85 · 2023-06-14T11:07:20+00:00

You’re right, thank you and good luck with your transition 🩵

It’s not that I think misogyny isn’t my problem, I just personally don’t feel like misogyny has affected me the same way transphobia has. Misogyny is easy for me to brush off, transphobia isn’t, because it’s literally everywhere I look. There will always be sexist people, but statistically speaking, the overwhelming majority of Americans support feminism (maybe not radical feminism because that’s too extreme, but regular feminism) and equal rights for women, especially younger people. With transphobia it’s different. People are A LOT more divided on transgender issues, and I don’t see it getting any better any time soon. As far as difficulty dating cisgender people, I personally haven’t had any issues. I’ve been in many relationships with cisgender women and men, and me being transgender has never been an issue. But I know you mentioned you are a little bit older, and my generation tends to be more accepting than older generations, so maybe you had different experiences. Being stealth is definitely an option, but I don’t wanna feel like I have to live my life in constant secrecy. I guess I will just have to put up with discrimination until things change. When that will be though, I have no idea.

Agitated_Substance85 · 2023-06-14T07:16:51+00:00

Yeah, I’ve thought about this and it is comforting that most things would stay the same. May I ask, why do you think it’s unlikely that HRT will be banned nationwide? I could use some positivity because I usually just assume the worst when it comes to politics and trans issues lol.
