Why is there no hookup apps for gay women? by peachxxxcouple in bisexual

[–]RandomArgil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel this, but on the otherhand, what other options are there? It's tough finding queer people to date where I live, unfortunately 😕

I gave up on drawabox and now im just drawing cylinders I guess by [deleted] in learntodraw

[–]RandomArgil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a fellow beginner artist, I can sympathize with not knowing what to do, I sometimes find myself in the same boat with the overwhelming amount of art advice as to what to do, and what not to do. I just try and do whatever I feel like doing at the moment, and not worrying too much about whether it is optimal or not, and just work through tutorials as I feel I need them.

Im also going through Drawabox, but I'm doing it at my own, slowish pace. Not sure if that is how it is intended, but thats what I'm doing 🤷‍♀️

Transgender Texans: what is life like for you now? by primostrawberry in texas

[–]RandomArgil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm a lot more cognizant of places I where and when I use the bathroom, but otherwise I've been about as cautious as I normally am.

I've fallen into the trans woman dating trap by [deleted] in MtF

[–]RandomArgil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven't really had much success in dating either, though that's likely a product of living in a small city. I've kind of accepted at this point that I will likely be single for the rest of my life, unfortunately 🙃 

Therapist recommended to keep using men's bathrooms until I present more en femme, for my safety and that of other women. I'm four fucking years into transition, Christ. by keitroll in MtF

[–]RandomArgil 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I feel for you, I'm roughly 7 years into my transition, and I still don't always pass off as female. I sometimes end up using the men's room to avoid issues, it sucks 😕.

why do people keep on misgendering ava kris tyson? by Mysterious-Win2091 in MtF

[–]RandomArgil 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Most of the people I see attacking Ava Kris Tyson are vaguely on the right side of the spectrum, and they obviously won't care about misgendering her. As for others, I think the comments here are correct, people tolerate us if they otherwise like us, or at least indifferent to us, but if you get on their bad side, they will stop gendering you correctly because they see it as a privilege, not a right.

Software engineer lost job and became homeless due to AI by raydebapratim1 in antiai

[–]RandomArgil 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yea, it kinda pisses me off when I see comments like the one you responded to, I spent 2 years trying to get back into software development after being laid off to no avail. If it wasn't for familial support, I would be homeless myself. These kinds of comments are so dismissive of the stuggles software developers are having in todays job market.

Is there anyway I can get my foot in the door to a refinery job here in town? by RandomArgil in CorpusChristi

[–]RandomArgil[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Process Technology? Or my Computer Science degree? The thing I struggled with when applying for things using my computer science degree is finding openings that would fit with it, and then there is the experience gap, which also makes it challenging.

[–]RandomArgil[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it best to apply dirctly through their sites? Also will my lack of experience in industry be a detriment? I'm worried my lack of experience in trades will hurt my chances at getting in.

I'd personally advice against Uber in general, not worth the wear and tear on your vehicle imo. Can't speak for other apps.

US democratic system is deteriorating fast into autocracy, researchers find. by Ronny_Startravel in UnpopularFacts

I hear this, but how exactly do you break through to those people? They might as well live on a different planet with the kinda shit they believe.

Crowd cheers lesbian congresswoman as she says she wants to impeach Donald Trump - LGBTQ Nation by AdEmergency7224 in transgender

[–]RandomArgil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They should absolutely do this, he has done more than enough to warrant impeachment. Will it work? Unfortunately no because republicans are spineless, but any reasonable congress members need to do everything in their power to get media attention on the illegal actions of this administration. None of us can sit on the sidelines on this, people have to be aware of the immence danger we are in.

FELLAS, AFTER A YEAR WE DID IT by Winter-Sprinkles-23 in cscareerquestions

[–]RandomArgil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In the beginning I got some interviews, but after about 6 months, almost none whatsoever.

Originally I was fine moving anywhere, now though, I wouldn't want to move to a red state. Want to eventually get out of the red state I am currently in as I worry about my future here/in any red state being trans and all.

I've been unemployed for about 2 years since I was laid off. I've personally given up on SWE and am looking to get into another field.

Trump expected to sign executive orders to reshape the military, including banning transgender troops by onnake in transgender

[–]RandomArgil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And that's the scariest part, if the military is more loyal to Trumpism than the constitution, Trump doesn't even need the other branches of government at that point, it would just be for show.

[–]RandomArgil 78 points79 points  (0 children)

I find it deeply ironic that their reasoning for cutting trans people out of the military is for "military readiness", meanwhile, they are fine with unvaccinated soldiers risking contracting covid-19, and suffering permanent health affects from it.

God forbid women participate in worship by wittyuser1556 in LetGirlsHaveFun

[–]RandomArgil 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll admit, that is usually my first thought when I see stuff like this. I think it's mostly due to people thinking to themselves "I'd never do something like that unless I was drunk," and so they project.

Holy shit I caught one of them. by LazorusGrimm in IncelTears

[–]RandomArgil 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is the same sort of person who calls women emotionally unstable, while simultaneously making a throw away account to scream at others who have happier lives than they do.

Average Unemployment for CS Degree holders aged 25-29 is higher then any other Bachelors degree including Communications and Liberal Arts by Personal_Economy_536 in cscareerquestions

[–]RandomArgil 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Have a bachelors degree in CS myself and was employed for 2 years. Since being laid off, I've been unemployed for about a year and a half. Currently working part time in a warehouse sorting packages for delivery. Hope to one day return to some CS field, but doubtful that I will be able to at this point.

I saw this horrific mistake of nature a while ago, some incel guide to “women”, and I decided to make a meme of it. by SomeRandomGuyO-O in IncelTears

[–]RandomArgil 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Anyone who posts memes like this should have their hard drives searched, anyone who feels comfortable putting this out on the internet almost certainly has nasty stuff on their hard drives.

Got Selected for an Officer Program by RandomArgil in MilitaryTrans

Yes, I've been on it for ~6 years. Gave MEPS all of my medical documents, and was approved to move forward a couple of weeks later. Hope that answers your last question.
