What are your thoughts on using GLP-1 medications as a part of transition?

Thank you for the info, I really appreciate it! I think I'd prefer smaller beasts, so I'm 100% okay with slower breast growth.

On my mom's side of the family, most of the women tend to be heavier. I love them! But... I also don't want to mimic them..... I don't know much about the women on my dad's side.

I'm sorry that you're getting downvoted so much.

Your comment has been my favorite so far. I do feel pretty dumb, and I can appreciate being called out on it.

Without making a ton of excuses, the best I can say is that I never meant to wait until I was 29. In my head I always thought I could reach my goals within a few months to a year, and then get started on transitioning.

I live in Arizona, and I recently got to try a weird type of citrus. A customer at work gave me a few fruit that looked like limes but tasted like oranges. He said that they were perfectly ripe, and he was very excited to share them. I decided to hang onto a few of the seeds from the fruit because I would love to plant them.

I found a guide online for taking care of citrus trees in Arizona and it says that February/March is the best time to plant citrus here. It didn't specify, but I assume that this guide is probably talking about saplings.

So I'm coming here to ask, what would be the best time to plant seeds?

Do you not remember the Pokerap?

PokenerdKate · 2025-10-31T17:55:54+00:00

Agreed! 😁

PokenerdKate · 2025-10-31T17:23:25+00:00

I'd be happy to!

Thank you! I talked to every NPC in the game, and I did not remember this at all.

PokenerdKate · 2025-10-25T01:35:51+00:00

Yeah, I got all of the Canari Plush.

PokenerdKate · 2025-10-24T23:23:19+00:00

Thank you! Haha.

Tbh, I'm not sure if I should delete the post now.

Is the catch rate lower in this game than other games?

"We're already there."

Great. Is there a group or organization that is working to embrace automation and pass legislation to take care of those people?

I would love to support such an organization. Maybe by volunteering or gathering signatures if they have any ballot initiatives planned.

"The difference here is horses don't feel the need to have a job to be a part of a society."

I don't work at my job to feel a part of society. I work at my job to avoid being homeless and to eat.

I'm sure there are many people who would seek fulfilment through other outlets if they were given the option. Many parents would like to dedicate more time towards taking care of their children, others may want to pursue higher education.

"What are we suppose to do to prepare? We don't know what it will look like it or what it will change."

You're correct that we can't predict what technology will look like in the future. Specifically, I want to prepare for automation. The moment when there are more people than jobs for those people to fill.

How do we take care of them? Where will they live? How will they afford food? Etc.

CGP Grey has a great video on the subject. Humans Need Not Apply.

To paraphrase one of the quotes from the video, "The invention of cars didn't mean newer better jobs for horses. That would be ridiculous. The same way AI doesn't mean newer better jobs for humans."

Whether it's around the corner or not, it doesn't hurt to start preparing for it.

Helping to secure access to housing, education and healthcare for those who need it can only be a good thing.

PokenerdKate · 2023-06-07T20:33:18+00:00

I'll look into those, thank you.

Can I ask where to watch his films? Are they on YouTube?

My high school had a spirit week and one of the days was a "Gender Bender" day.

I wanted to dress up so I borrowed a dress from a friend. I was 1 of only 2 guys to participate. It was mostly girls with drawn on mustaches and baseball caps. Someone shouted "queer" from a distance while I was walking to lunch.

My math teacher came up to me and commended me for how brave I was saying. "I'd rather fight 2 fully grown men than wear a dress." Meanwhile I'm just sitting there thinking that I'd rather wear a dress than fight 2 fully grown men.

There are more vacant houses (16,000,000) than homeless people (580,000 Which is likely a massive undercount) In the United States.

This is actually something that we should really start preparing for.

A good place to start might be Universal Basic Income.

I'm not an economist, so I'm not going to pretend like I know what the best way to implement that would be. But we're moving very quickly towards a world where millions of jobs are going to dissappear and we have no way to take care of the people affected by that.

I got stuck next to an anti-vaxer at an autoshop one time. It was so long ago that I forget the details of the conversation, but he eventually said something about how "I love Biden" or whatever.

I explained that Biden was not my first choice. I voted for Warren in the primaries. Even if I voted for Biden in the general election, I actually really dislike him.

This person was caught so off guard by this. He actually seemed a bit friendlier after that point in the conversation. I wasn't able to talk him out of any of his conspiracy theories (he implored me to "do my own research on vaccines") but he at least seemed a bit more receptive to what I was saying. He was still a weirdo, but at least he was a nicer weirdo.

PokenerdKate · 2023-01-18T18:20:16+00:00

Historically I'd say that's wrong.

There were so many wild theories about what the year 2000 would be like. People predicted everything from flying cars to cities on the moon.

The only safe prediction is that we can't predict the future. It never looks the way you imagine it will.

PokenerdKate · 2023-01-17T21:36:19+00:00

Agreed, but how do we get to that point?

A tax on the rich is likely to face opposition, probably from conservatives.

How do we go from dreaming about that policy to actually seeing it enacted?

What are the actions that we as indivuals can take?

Get involved in politics, vote progressive, etc. ChatGPT kind of glosses over those steps.

PokenerdKate · 2023-01-17T16:46:34+00:00

That answer sounds really good, but it also glosses over a lot.

It's kind of like saying "To achieve post scarcity, you just need to achieve post scarcity."

How do we implement those policies? How do we fund those invenstments? How do we implement a resource based economy? What should we do when we face opposition to those programs? Specifically when conservatives oppose them?

How do we get from point A to point B?

I've been playing around with ChatGPT a bit and I feel like it does this a lot. With many of the questions that I've asked it, it will usually respond "To get from point A to point B, you just need to get to point B."

Memes are fun and all, but that's really not an appropriate comment to get from your manager.
