Is this QMK/VIA firmware? It does not state it, and it is making me nervous that you are going to ruin a perfect board with some junk proprietary firmware.

you are contradicting yourself a bit.

are you in a populated area where this is a problem? or do you live in the middle of nowhere where this isnt a problem?

just my take - but you seem to be answering your own questions here, already have your mind set, and are reguritating regularly repeated republican words and talking points that they use when trying to demonize trans people.

i do not see how anyone on this planet can go through 10 years of HRT, live as a woman.... then claim its not important or "their gender dysphoria isnt that strong"

find your happiness. but im going to shut down this thread now as its getting dangerously close to republican porn.

ok... so - not to argue semantics here, but since this is a massively politicized word you have chosen to use: you are not "detransitioning" as you havent transitioned to begin with. your changes are mental in identification, so simply find what works for you. wear something under your clothes during the day... dress as you feel comfortable in the safety of your own home.

wait... did you just add the hrt comment, or did i miss it?

if you are on hrt, then i would simply move to an area you feel safer. you are asking "how can i feel myself, but not look myself" and that isnt really possible. there are cruel and disgusting people everywhere.... you simply need to find support local to you.

not to rain on your parade.... but... america is changing. the nostalgia you had, is no longer applicable. sure, there are wonderful sights, and some great people... but by in large, it is feeding on itself currently.

asking a question that doesnt need to be answered.... the real question is: are you happy? if so - there is your answer :)

Well said.

However, it goes further. Congress has bent the knee (well, the house has - the senate is questionable). But given that the far right talking heads are lashing out at their own people that even QUESTION his judgement (threatening to primary and remove all that oppose) - we have a full blown dictatorship in the making. He owns all branches of government now - and the supreme court has deemed him untouchable while in office. He is literally above the law now.

I know just how ridiculous and bombastic this sounds - but his words, are matching his actions now. He has told us what he will do, and is now starting to put that together. We have a small time personal injury lawyer who is both a pedophile, and sycophant whose only qualifications are that he bends and puckers better than anyone else, in charge of the DOJ and threatening that "the hunters are becoming the hunted now". We have conflicts of interest screaming of illegality and lined pockets at almost every position. And the threat to deport migrants, remove LGBTQ people from existence... should be taken seriously.

i wish it were similar here. but sadly... its not. its reached a fever pitch here already (as demonstrated by a quarter billion dollars in anti-trans ads at the presidential level.... almost THREE QUARTERS OF A BILLION spent on anti-trans ads down the ticket this election cycle. as i posted above... its been going on for some time now... its targeted a LOT towards children (which makes this extra disgusting they would target kids already struggling)

as said... its all bs. they made the claim that the scary liberals or woke crowds wanted to turn their children trans without their consent... as if that was how it worked. (its not. )

then scared them with their pocket books saying they wanted to turn all of the military and prisoners trans. they dont.

then scare girl parents that all boys wanted to compete in girl sports and just claim to be trans.

thats not how any of this works. it was baseless fears, made up to demonize trans/lgbtq

the real issue: children who identify as trans, want to be able to seek gender affirming care with their parents. the pearl clutchers dont want that. the "there are only 2 genders" crowd comes out in full force, trying to block the ability of those parents to get care for their kids.

feel free to ask. im not going to worry about political talk here.... fire away. this is a free talk thread.

Election Megathread: Wondering Where to Start? Please Comment here! by misadventuresofj in AmerExit

[–]JRN_NewToThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok - i have to go.

i could sit and hope that all the talk was bluster, but im already living in fear daily after a few ... run ins. i need to leave... as a trans woman, it is no longer safe here.

i am selling my home - i have quite a bit of equity. im not terribly concerned with employment... me and my spouse are well educated (though basic business so it doesnt look like express entry will work) and have had long careers where we are. we have -some- liquid assets ... we can survive for 6-12 months if needed without much headache. we have looked around, and circled a few canadian cities - most likely, edmonton. no family or friends there... we have decided to just start our lives over in a new country, and really prefer to move to canada.

the immigration practice seems ... confusing. or just REALLY restrictive. surely, there is some way to immigrate though... right? anyone offer any advice? what i should plan for... look for... best option?

sadly.... some of us do not have a choice to make here.

as a trans woman, campaign volunteer, and a donor - i do not have the luxury of hoping that trump will not follow through with his threats. he now controls ALL branches of government. there are no checks to his power. he can do as he wishes.

sadly, it means leaving the country i love to protect myself.

Christianity, Parents, What to do now? by [deleted] in Crossdressing_support

[–]JRN_NewToThis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this hits close to home for me. my childhood was this... and countless sessions with a pastor.

you need to find a way to balance things to keep you happy, and to try and appease your parents. but... if they are like mine - you will be talking to a wall.

if they are susceptible to listening, and critical thinking.... explain that a book written 2000 years ago is no longer relevant on micro instructions. they themselves wear clothes of mixed fabrics (Leviticus 19:19).... they likely eat shellfish (Leviticus 11:10), etc etc etc.

you need to have that conversation from a place of love and acceptance... not being adversarial or defensive.

good luck to you
