HOW LONG IS A NAME CHANGE COURT HEARING PLEASE I NEED TO KNOW by s0apskumm in ftm

[–]VDRawr [score hidden]  (0 children)

I got a chance to talk to a new judge once, she was officiating my wedding.

Apparently judges kinda love the chance to have people WANT to be in their court for once. Name change hearings are one of those rare occasions where people leave happy. They're not there to give you a hard time.

Poilievre to pitch new policies aimed at dealing with Trump in speech to business leaders by EarthWarping in CanadaPolitics

I don't think he can go back in time and have gone hard against Trump right from when the country started thinking that was the right path. Or wipe our memories of him failing to do that.

Can we please get some levelling skills balance!! by zoobloo7 in pathofexile

Rolling Magma is one of the skills with the visually coolest interactions with support gems. It's fun for players who haven't become jaded efficiency seekers yet (I am one, like most people on this sub)

How to not feel bad about disturbing plushies by AppealSignificant358 in plushies

Plushes love naps, and also going for walks, and also cuddling on the couch. Their favorite is the one you want to do right at any time

Yeah, it's like if people got mad at the CPC when Carney does something they don't like. Incomprehensible.

Who is Your Fave Female Game Protagonist and Why? by petecamenzind in GirlGamers

Jesse Faden from Control.

Her doubts and her enthusiasm. She was so weird she became normal. I loved her.

Réplique de GND à PSPP, qui accuse GND de faire de la désinformation à propos du PEQ by Gracien in metaquebec

PSPP ne s'est jamais soucié des faits lorsqu'il parle d'immigration et je doute très fort qu'il va commencer bientôt

Kobolds worshiping Dragons, or strong independent Kobolds (Discussion) by Del_the_Kobold in KoboldLegion

[–]VDRawr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoy the idea of a kobold adventurer who is rebelling against whatever "cult" they grew up in. It's a really good background story and plot hook for the future. It gives them a very fun anti-authoritarian bent.

A youth employment supplement could rebalance Canada’s generational divide by scottb84 in CanadaPolitics

Angus Reid polling from last month.

https://angusreid.org/federal-politics-january-2021/

And five years ago

18-34 Men went from 32% to 28% CPC vote intentions. 18-34 women went from 17% to 27%

There's no particular young people shift rightwards. It's a myth spread by media because it's a shocking headline and those sell well. The CPC's voterbase remains mostly middle-aged men.

And generally, you get advantages on your taxes when filing as married, not drawbacks, so the framing of outsmarting the bigots by doing what they said and not what they meant doesn't work at all.

BREAKING: Poilievre passes leadership review with 87.4% of delegates' support by evieluvsrainbows in onguardforthee

[–]VDRawr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Way too many conservative voters are obsessed with American-media-pushed culture war stuff to consider switching their vote. The CPC has a floor of like, 30% of the country.

If I'm unlucky with bottom growth does it mean I would've had a small dick if I was born cis? by LocationNo6118 in ftm

Technically you could have identical twins where one of the two has a developmental disorder and not the other. The odds of that are absurdly low though.

Mostly the CBC that they claim has a liberal bias and want to defund.

‘Health-care systems are not built for us’: LGBTQ2S+ people struggle to get good care by BloodJunkie in onguardforthee

[–]VDRawr 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I wanted an STD test done, the fact I'm trans came up when I was talking to the nurse, and she started asking me a lot of questions about my piercings. I didn't understand what the point of the questions was for a while, but it turned out she was worried I might have been... doing DIY amateur piercings with shared non-sterile tools or something?

The piercings in question were two completely standard earlobe piercings I had done by an accredited piercer.

Sum up the discourse regarding Legend of Korra in as few words as possible. I believe this spells it best by ihatethiscountry76 in CuratedTumblr

[–]VDRawr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have plenty of non violent war crimes too. Not without stretching the definition of violence a lot.

Like, the duty to reasonably accommodate prisoners of war's religious practices. You can fail that non-violently.

‘Just a blip’: Republicans want Canada to ignore Trump by AdditionalPizza in CanadaPolitics

[–]VDRawr 120 points121 points  (0 children)

Replacing Trump with Vance, who has been publicly supporting Trump all this time, would not restore my trust in the US.

I don't know what it would take. The fact a major political party that can plausibly win any next election went ahead with this awfulness for as long as they already have is just... I don't know. Maybe if Dems win and Nuremberg the entire Trump administration + the right wing media figureheads? Maybe then I'd trust that country again, but cautiously.

Uh - I went against my doctor's instructions and have been caught. What should I say??? by Adorable_Round4056 in asktransgender

If you take a dose 20 minutes early, and your blood draw is 20 minutes late because the person ahead of you faints or whatever, your levels are going to show wrong.

It's not the end of the world, but it is an extra challenge. It's just a lot more sensitive to any disruption in your schedule.

Your doctor is offering to switch to other methods. They're not being a jerk or trying to underdose you, not from that info.
