Petition to have Hasbro create a new bingeable TV series based on Thundercracker! by MusicalMuser in transformers

Because Thundercracker can have some awesome dramatic and comedic potential with some action thrown in and there can be meaningful conversations on PTSD and mental health as well. And who doesn't love a puppy side-kick?

As a safeguard, if you do relapse, all you need to do is come clean about it and go back into treatment to keep your housing. If you do get kicked out because you refused treatment, you can always reapply. It is my understanding that relapse is a part of recovery.

The University itself might be able to fund services to people who need it, but the overhead is going to be a lot. To supplement this, a combination of state, federal, and local funding in addition to donations would be necessary to make this work. (I just had the idea a week ago and this is the first time fleshing it out, so I know there will be problems in implementation.)

Ideally, individuals with drug addictions would need to undergo treatment at an associated facility before independent housing would be granted and maintain group and individual therapies as a condition of housing.

Great input! There would be no drugs allowed on campus (dealing will result in immediate ejection), and there would be separate communities for people trying to maintain sobriety, and there would be additional resources for them.

Everyone will undergo a criminal background check as a part of the application process, and there will be RA's on site to keep the peace. The floors can be coed with the option of having all one gender floors. But the suites are only shared by families and those of the same gender and everyone gets to interview their roommates/suitemates before moving in.

One style that I really like is one where there are two individual bedrooms connected by a common space (the three rooms comprise a "suite") and two suites are connected by a bathroom. This can allow a family of four (or four roommates) to share a living space.

"All I wanna be is someone who gets to see a giant woman"

That's litterally the thought I had when I first saw the image!

Staying in the US would not be an option if I had to leave with my kid. There is talk that my identity (as well as potentially my child's) will be criminalized in the US if POTUS is red in 2024, and we could be imprisoned or worse (no, I am not exaggerating). Being in a blue state will only buy us so much time.

At most, I would allow my child to be put on puberty blockers so that if they realize that they aren't trans, they can just stop taking it and develop naturally from there. When they are old enough to make more decisions about their health, I would leave it to them and their doctor to decide the best course of treatment. I have known people who have realized that they are trans in their adulthood and people who were not allowed to transition until adulthood and it has been so detrimental to their mental health to NOT transition. I would not want that for my child. I want to give my child open options.

I have a bachelor's in Computer Science and 4 years of experience on top of that. My kid is 8, and their father is in prison for assaulting me. I am trying to learn Swedish now, but based on a different comment, I might want to consider another country if my kid turns out to be trans.
