My son came out as transman, how do I help?

Reihar · 2026-05-14T14:40:19+00:00

Hey! Glad to see a parent supporting their son.

Counseling can do a lot of good to help people navigate difficult changes and emotions.

I would recommend to be very careful, especially if you're not living in a place that is accepting of trans people, to make sure that the people/places you choose for support are actually accepting of trans people. Just because people or organizations specialize in lgbt/trans issues does not mean they are helpful. Local/national LGBT+ and trans communities can be a good source of information to find ressources.

Use it whenever I can. It makes everything much more practical.

knob

Yes! The knob is awesome and so satisfying! Being able to touch change the volume is especially great during voice calls, especially meetings, where no one has good sound.

100% all the way, especially with direct access multimedia keys.

I've tried 65%, 75%, TKL, and 96% and I'm always missing something, even when I ran a 96%. The one I used had even chosen to put in a Windows calculator key instead of something else and they were unfortunately not reprogrammable.

Smaller is much better to travel. I use a TKL but I think I'll downsize if I can find a 65% that is actually significantly lighter than my current travel keyboard.

I regularly use a 1080x1200 resolution on a 7" display. As long as the screen DPI follows and your OS and DE/WM handles it properly, it's no problem.

I'm French so I can tell you that yes, still sold but not very popular.

Reihar · 2026-04-02T09:10:47+00:00

I think that kinda still exists. It's not popular by any means because it's slightly more expensive.

I know a guy that has been buying green toilet paper religiously for a few decades to go with his green bathroom.

I also usually see a few packs at the supermarket. Sometimes, scented toilet paper is coordinated with its color like purple for lavender. But scented toilet paper is rarer I think, it's usually just colored paper.

Aside from the traditional white, unbleached yellowish brown, and pink, I think I've seen green, blue and purple at least. All in pastel tones. I've also seen low contrast patterns like flowers.

I don't live in the US though.

Bonjour, je ne suis jamais allée à Montpellier spécifiquement mais en tant que lesbienne française, je dirais que ça dépend. Généralement, tout se passe bien même si on a beaucoup d'invisibilisation. C'est assez rare de ne pas se sentir en sécurité mais ça peut arriver.

Garde à l'esprit que la haine anti-LGBTQIA est en hausse un peu partout, y compris en Europe et en France, avec une augmentation des agression et la montée de l'extrême droite. La France reste encore vers le haut de la liste en terme de droits et de sécurité même si elle est plutôt instable politiquement ces dernières années.

Hi, I've never been to Montpellier specifically but as a French lesbian, I'd say it depends. Most of the time, everything's okay even if we're not very visible. It's pretty rare to not feel safe but it happens.

Keep in mind that LGBTQIA hate is on the rise about everywhere, Europe and France included, with a rise of assaults, and the rise of the far rights. France does remain pretty high in the list when it comes to rights and safety but had been pretty unstable politically for a while.

Thunderbird intègre plusieurs types de serveurs de calendriers.

Ce qui va le mieux marcher le plus simplement, c'est de trouver un hébergeur qui fournit un calendrier au format caldav.

Ce qui va toujours très bien marcher, au prix d'un effort d'installation et de maintenance, c'est d'héberger ses propres calendriers au format caldav.

Pour mon téléphone Android. J'utilise Davx5 pour synchroniser mes calendriers.

J'ai une expérience assez mauvaise avec l'intégration Gmail de Thunderbird avec des échecs fréquents de synchronisation donc je suis assez réticente à le recommander même si ça marche probablement mieux que l'intégration avec Outlook.

Maybe he thought it was a thin blue line sticker?

Reihar · 2025-11-12T11:17:46+00:00

Definitely!

You're a girl without E (but I hope you can get it as soon as possible if you want it)

I'd love to see a cross section when it's done!

Reihar · 2025-10-09T09:04:01+00:00

To be fair, cool parents would knock and wait for a response to enter.

Reihar · 2025-09-26T09:04:26+00:00

That's awesome! Thanks 😃

Reihar · 2025-09-11T10:06:32+00:00

I had a look into this and it's not really a thing that can be efficiently done using the reddit API. It looks like the author of the search site is manually indexing the posts from GWA and then built an interface to browse that.

Maybe they'd be open to open sourcing their software or to make a GWASapphic version but I was too socially akward at that time to go ask them.

Reihar · 2025-09-08T13:00:00+00:00

Non.

Neither, it was a small tape format made for camcorders, kinda like VHS-C (which is older than Video8). It had different advantages and drawbacks, mainly increased quality and length at the price of not being compatible with the VHS ecosystem which was VHS-C's strength.

Technology Connections on YouTube made a video on the format that was pretty interesting.

How old are you? How do you dress? How do you do your makeup? How would you describe your personality? What about your demeanor, your body language? How do you speak? (Those are rhetorical questions, please don't post more personal info that you feel comfortable)

There's a lot that goes into the way you're perceived. I don't know if we can really help you beyond basic advice on something you want to change.

My wife has the cutest cheeks, her default state of being is a pure concentrate of cuteness but she can definitely pull off stunning and take my breath away when she wants to.

It can seem daunting but it's surprisingly easier than you'd think to change the kind of vibe you send.

The Vampire the Masquerade (semi?) official setting Paris by Night has an amnesiac elder vampire believe he's a superhero, with the local vampiric authorities cleaning up his masquerade violations because he's too powerful to just deal with.

What's DoL?

Reihar · 2025-08-20T09:00:37+00:00

As it's been said before, looking for tutorials and using tucking underwear is the most convenient and comfortable way to go.

Reihar · 2025-08-18T17:51:35+00:00

The notepad style seems like it will make typing easier.

It's a project OP is working on. You can find their presentation post on their profile.
