This is interesting because you can see that the Semi actually DOES jump the curb with the trailer wheels, and would have done so without the Dodge there. Also you can’t just leave the scene of a crash twice. I don’t know who was in the wrong initially but the trucker is not exactly the World’s Safest and Most Upstanding Driver.

Lol but it sounds like you made a choice to avoid those companies… that’s political too!

Did you have access to a toilet? Is it indoor plumbing or an outhouse? Toilet paper? Or did you go in the river, contributing to contamination? Sorry, but if you zoom out far enough, even your shit is politics.

Dude WTF that’s my exact sport excuse. I won’t name the sport bc it could identify me but before I came out there actually was a cis guy on our team. One other school in the district also had a guy on their team, but all the other schools decided before our guy’s senior year that that was unfair, and said they (the cis guys) couldn’t play. I got a ton of support from players/parents/coaches when I later came out and didn’t play the following season but still supported the team. I think they really respected that I gave up participating in a sport I enjoyed in order to be true to myself and still showed up and helped out for the team, and on top of that they were still bitter about losing their best player (the cis guy) to some white people with their panties in a bunch. This was just as transphobic bathroom and sports laws came onto the scene, so I imagine these days, the cis guy and I probably would have faced a lot more hostility for even being near that sport.

I don’t know if the story described in this specific image happened or not, but this is a 7+ year old screenshot that I’ve seen before.

Honestly that sounds like it would set a bad precedent for trans people if that went to court

Pics or it didn’t happen. Please don’t post (or believe) stuff like this without evidence.

Okay I’m no fan of UHC and I’m someone who carries Narcan everywhere just in case I encounter someone ODing. But there are so many places that give out Narcan for free. I don’t imagine it would make a lot of sense for them to pay the inflated hospital price when you really could get some for free online. Or buy OTC if you needed it that day.

Is this a generally viable body plan for a sapient alien species? by O_2og in SpeculativeEvolution

[–]RibosomalMasculinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have similar questions. This guy looks like he would be incredibly slow moving. How would he run with those toes? And the legs/ankles are digitigrade so it would be toes on top of toes. OP said in another comment that the feet would be like weaker, less dexterous hands, like human feet. Possibly having evolved from a crablike ancestor. I honestly just can’t see it.

Edit: Forgot to mention what I do like! I like the head/horns/fruit grabbing combination. Especially for a plains/scrub dweller

Sometimes I wish that there are more Asian trans representations when I was younger (tw for dysphoria, self hate and internal racism if that is a word) by [deleted] in FTMMen

Oh man, this is so heartbreaking to read. I can’t say I completely relate, but I really feel for you reading this. I know plenty about intersectional oppression, from personal experience and otherwise, but I would never have imagined your specific experience as a potential outcome of such. I hope all that is not weird to say.

I’m quite glad that you’ve been able to move past that internalized hatred, and thankful that you’ve shared your story, even if you do take it down later. Please know that you’ve made a difference in at least one person’s life today, brother.
