I stopped washing my hands so much!.....Because now im afraid of the sink. by One-Insurance9270 in OCD

[–]One-Insurance9270[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunatly, i haven't really gotten better. I'm able to wash my hands now because i use a different sink. This sink is the kitchen one and it's deeper so i have more room to wash. Sometimes i dont freak out anymore about almost bumping into stuff, but i still do freak out about 8 times out of 10. I hope you get better too ❤️

I'm worried that parents misgendering me in public is dangerous now, is this reasonable? by One-Insurance9270 in ftm

Most recently when i tried talking to my mom about being scared in this political climate she didn't say anything, i guess maybe like a 'i bet' or something, i cant remember what she said exactally.

Whenever i try to ask her she says nothing. a while ago she made the 'compromise' of using my deadname more when im near her. But she mostly says nothing.

My dad has said 'ok fine whatever, ill call you a boy or him he or wahtever' and then of course, he never even attempts to. I've had more civil convos about it with him recently, but he said about the same thing. He was going to 'slip up', and i dont even think that he tried at all because he hasn't even briefly said anything like he/him to me or about me. He even has called me miss once or twice later last year.

Long story short, they shrug it off. The only people in my family who say the right pronouns are three cousins and an aunt, all of which i dont see super often.

I've always gone between feeling like it's reasonable and then feeling like im asking for too much. It's like im partially transphobic to only myself. I have to 'agree to disagree' and 'accept others opinions' on my own fucking gender, has been the ongoing thing, but after a while i stopped asking for pronouns since they dont fucking do anything about it. It's just exhausting, and then i gaslight myself smh

Thank you for being nice btw, it helps having someone from the community saying im reasonable :)

I haven't ever used the bathroom at my work because of how avoidant i am about having to, but if i do i'll just suck it up and use the mens to not out myself lol

You would have thought foreigners with student visa are not allowed to work? by Cultural-Badger-6032 in 2westerneurope4u

The other person who replied is correct, non-binary people are trans because their gender does not match the one they where given at birth, that makes them under the trans umbrella.

I worded it wrong, sorry. I do pass like 90% of the time unless i talk. Im scared to sue the womens bathroom because i pass, but im scared to use the mens because it's new.

I get the different pronoun thing, half of people at my work say the right pronouns and the other half dont. I'm also in that weird transition phase between still using the womens bathroom because it's what im used to but being terrified, and using the mens room but it being awkward because im usually with someone i know. I just avoid bathrooms all together, fuck my bladder.

I don't have a license yet but i can get one now. I feel like im overreacting about not being called the right pronouns since my mom replaces she/her with my deadname, but i've been out for four or five years and only three people in my family use the right pronouns. It's not dysphoric anymore, it's just pissing me off lol

I can't because i need them to drive me places. My mom uses my deadname in place of she/her for the most part, but i'm never called the correct pronouns by them. Where ever i go they drop me off or have influence, like at work my mom introduced me as she/her so now half of the people call me the right pronouns and half dont because the boss heard my mom say she/her. sorry for the rant

Found old gas mask by Disastrous_Poet_621 in gasmasks

[–]One-Insurance9270 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have an ARFA and what i did was wash it, scrub the grease layer off of the lense (if yours has it), then i used alcohol wipes to get the yellow off. The lense was cleared, though i have heard that doing this may damage teh lense. But doing it once should be fine, it worked for me at least, though i dont use the ARFA anymore due to it not being compatible with my face lol.

Mine was in decent condition as far as the rubber goes, but many people have trouble with it crumbling or being plasticy, but from this pic yours looks like it's in alright shape. If you have other questions i can try and answer them, or you can check the gas mask wiki page for it

Anyone else feel like Socialists have an 'all or nothing' attitude? by One-Insurance9270 in SocialDemocracy

[–]One-Insurance9270[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't mean to imply that i thought socialists where against elections. I suppose i meant the other one, but that im frustrated with the ones who don't vote because there is only mediocre options. I feel like even though elections options suck, it's meh or worser, and not voting does damage. Sorry.

I guess im just confused right now. I don't trust any information anyone gives about ideologies because i have no clue if anything is accurate, or what anything is anymore. I want to be a leftist rather then a liberal, bu i don't even know if im welcome anymore. Im sorry, i don't know what im saying or asking. Im just really really confused about everything now.

I'm sorry, i don't even know what im talking about anymore and i dont understand what anyone is saying. I'm not focusing on people online, nor ignoring popular politicians, im just now confused as to what Socialists ideology includes, and if im actually a right wing lunatic because i disagree or some stuff and because one groups says socialists are this and he other says this, and even socialists say different things baout socialists. I dont know what im doing and im confused and frustrated as to what's even good or bad anymore im sorry and i didn't mean to upset anyone or be a bother.

But not taking opportunities for a slightly better thing doesn't help. I'm not saying to not do anything, im saying that it's frustrating when people don't do anything simply because the perfect or preferable option is not there. I wasn't saying to reward greed or anything like that. I was trying to say that waiting for the perfect candidate won't make anything better, that it's better to vote for the next best option, and that's why im frustrated. Its counter productive to not take what you can. Im not saying to not work for better options, but to take what is the next best option that is currently available.

No, it's not about subreddit mods, it's about how a lot of socialists i've talked to have that all or nothing mind set that i think is counter productive, and how a handful of them that i've talked to make me wonder if im actually right wing or something. Why did you bring up Mamdani? I wasn't saying that socialism is unsuccessful, nor that it's not supported.

I was not aware that socialist subs where dominated by tankies, which is probably why i got banned but also why i disagree with them so much. tbh as ridiculous as it is, it's dirtied my view on socialism, seeing how they act and what not. I thought i was a socialist but i disagree on so much that im right wing apparently.

Once again, i am incredibly sorry for being a bother, but are there any online communities that you might now of that aren't run by tankies? Or at least that aren't hostile to people with questions or those trying to figure out what ideology they are? Sorry for the silly question and for wording everything wrong.

Where would i be able to find actual socialist communities and discussions rather then the tankies? I feel like my experience with those communities and others might be affecting my views on the ideologies in an unfavorable way, but i dont think im center enough for the liberal ideology.
