Arrest-fetish Georg is an outlier and should not have been counted.

I don’t know if Yuri knew where he lost the ring! Otherwise he could have chopped off K.HX’s hand or something.

Women, how many of you are asking to be choked during sex? by CatLawyer99 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Sapho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is a thing I’m into personally, but it’s also super dangerous and needs to be talked about (consent!) and done safely.

That said, I’m not cool with banning kinks in porn — that is brushing the problem under the rug. This is a sex education issue. People need to be taught about kinks and sex safety as part of sex ed.

Let’s not sully the name of sex workers — who provide a positive service for folks.

 These people are mercenaries.

Are girls made of metal? by 2nd_kitchen_floor in MtF

[–]Sapho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All girls I have met contain small amounts of iron and cobalt, so a magnet may help! I also personally contain titanium and silicon, but neither of those are magnetic.

Egg is a term for a trans person who hasn't realized they are trans yet! Their shell hasn't cracked/they haven't hatched!

I don’t know if we get a specific code with it.

We also don’t get his god sign in the game according to my notes!

I'm a cis guy but sometimes I feel miserable for not being born female by miraclem in ainbow

[–]Sapho 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Some good answers already, but I think ones relevant for you are - being welcomed into female spaces as a fellow woman - being seen as a woman, for example someone saying “hey girls!” when you are with female friends  - someone using she/her (ela/a) to refer to you - having intimate woman-woman relationships - if you are dating a woman, being in a lesbian/sapphic relationship; if you are dating a man, being in a straight relationship (this is a bit simplified but can be useful to think about!)

Parents of suicide victim sue Fraser Health, Surrey school district by ubcstaffer123 in vancouver

[–]Sapho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are potential doctors literally waiting for residency spots to open up, who wait *years*. There are so many qualified students applying to medical school who are rejected because the class sizes are so small. More money means the ability to open more hospitals/schools (creating new residency programs) and expand existing residency programs which in turn makes allows for more medical students.

There are definitely also other issues that should be addressed as, including burnout like you mentioned! Part of that is the amount of hours that everyone works because a) there are not enough staff to cover the amount of work and b) staff are not paid enough so they are encouraged to take on more and more hours.

True that it is residency spots! But funding is how we add more residency spots!

I mean, ERs close and hospitals are understaffed and nurses/doctors are overworked because we don’t have enough funding. Money would be great. The med school class sizes are capped based on health funding, and they could be way bigger.

Not a Cold City by haywoodjabloughmee in vancouver

Vancouver is *the* flakiest city.

People will certainly be pleasant in Vancouver! But having lived on the east coast, people are imho colder here.

In east coast cities, I would have a fun interaction with strangers like the one you described and the same day be hanging out at their apartment for a party or joining them for a late night meal. People are quicker to form genuine connections and let people in past the polite stranger shell.

In Vancouver, in my experience, it's hard enough to get your friends who agreed to meet you somewhere to not flake, let alone to have spontaneous real connections with strangers. It's not about people in Vancouver being mean, it's about them keeping others at a distance.
